The Founding President, Praveen Chandra had told the tenth anniversary celebration of Waitakere Indian Association on 8 May, 2010, that the idea of forming an organisation of Indians took root at a birthday party in Te Atatu Peninsula in 1999. And sixteen years on, that organisation is still going strong, with its latest Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 31 July 2016.
Over the past one and a half decades, WIA has been recognised as one of the best organisations in West Auckland, and perhaps New Zealand and received numerous awards for that. It has established itself as a credible community organisation and has formed sound working relationship with like-minded organisations, the local Maori, Auckland Council, various ethnic groups, various Government ministries, NGOs, local business communities, the sponsors, and of course with its grassroots membership.
The stormy, rainy, windy and wintery cold last day of July, 2016, in mid-winter, saw a warm function at St John Hall in Henderson Auckland. It was an evening for the grassroots membership and the evening rounded off with networking, socialising and dinner. The membership included thinning and greying - haired senior citizens, jean-clad youths, sari and salwar-kameez clad ladies wing, and of course the smartly dressed engine room of the organisation - the past, present and prospective executive members of WIA. This was a day to continue celebrating an icon of West Auckland.

The founding Trustee / President Praveen Chandra has vacated office. The current Trustees are Sunil Chandra, Rameshwar Dutt, Abhay Ballu, Umas Chandra, Naveen Prakash, with Manoj Tahal making the newest trustee. Perhaps this form of a system would suit other similar organisations to keep opportunists away, and for smooth operation. The buck in such an organisation, does not stop at AGM – the Trustees give the final blessing to grant it legitimacy and authority. And that has been the reason for success and stability of WIA, thanks to the learned Trustees, who rarely get recognised for being the foundation and beacon of the organisation.
|The two Presidents: Incoming President, Mahendra Sharma (left) watches on while the Immediate Past President/Treasurer , Naveen Prakash addresses the meeting.
Respective Project Managers of Diwali and Holi, Anilesh Kumar and Mahendra Sharma presented their reports and wonderful events they managed. Other reports of successful subcommittees, such as Youth and Sports, Women's Wing and Senior Citizens reports were also presented. Naveen being a former treasurer guards money very closely and was able to deliver a healthy surplus and bank accounts for incoming executives.

President: Mahendra Sharma
Vice President: Sunil Kaushal
Secretary: Hasmita Singh
Assistant Secretary: Kajal Kumar
Treasurer/ Immediate Past President: Naveen Prakash
Assistant Treasurer: Mohini Prakash
Executive Members: Hardip Singh, Manoj Tahal, Sunil Chandra, Preeya Prakash, Chandrika Prasad, Dev Bhardwaj, Arvind Singh (Rohit) and Nawal Prakash.
One uniqueness about AGM at WIA is the smooth election process where most elections have been through consensus, in a cordial atmosphere, with guiding hands of the trustees. And we were blessed by a grassroots member of our community as the next President. Mahendra Sharma – a soft-spoken, humble person.
The new President, Sharma, in his first presidential address laid the basic foundation of the new executive. This, among others, included working closely with police, and having Indian Wardens in Henderson. This will be headed by the new executive member, Nawal Prakash, who is a former senior sergeant of Fiji Military Forces. The other was working with Fire Services to ensure checking on working smoke alarms in our homes. Sharma also emphasised working closely with the Maori community in general and Waipareira Trust in particular. In addition, WIA would work very closely with Shri Ram Mandir and Hindi School. One area of emphasis will be youth development, and well-being of Senior Citizens. Another emphasis would be extending the sphere of WIA with a membership drive to bring in more people on board.
With the mixture of new and the old, and with three trustees in the executive committee, the membership can expect another successful year from a very enthusiastic, energetic and well deserved team. And unlike many similar organisations WIA can boast to be empowering ladies by having some 30% ladies in key positions.
They say, charity begins at home. WIA, a charitable organisation is indeed unique in this way. Perhaps another rarity of WIA is that, while maintaining its transparency and good governance, it remains a community, a grassroots and a family organisation. To reflect this, WIA's new Executive has two sets of father – daughter team, while there is a husband – wife team as well. It is through such homely and closely-knit team that Waitakere Indian Association continues to be a shining light of charitable organisations in New Zealand.
FIJI PUNDIT congratulates and blesses them in his usual, salutary manner-Aayushmaan Bhava.

Venice awards make a stand
Posted by Guy Lodge · 11:05 am · September 11th, 2011
To judge from the press reaction to yesterday's Venice Film Festival awards, you could be forgiven for thinking that Michael Fassbender won every single one of them, plus an extra certificate for full attendance. That'd hardly be surprising in any circumstances, given Fassbender's growing celebrity and the media's reliable aversion to world cinema. Best Actor […]

Venice Film Festival If "Hunger," artist-turned-filmmaker Steve McQueen's remarkable debut feature, was a study of a body strenuously denied its fundamental needs, his satisfyingly rigorous, explicit follow-up, "Shame," traces the very different damage done by a body over-gifted with wants.

Middle-Eastern warming
Mohammad Javad Mohammadi Zadeh – Iranian Vice-President
A historic worldwide summit on climate change has recently ended in Doha, Qatar. Seeking to control global warming, nearly 200 countries agreed to extend the Kyoto Protocol, aimed to control greenhouse gas output. Although it was the Middle East where the event took place, the region is not really much talked about when it comes to environmental protection. But isn't it unfair to ignore the world's biggest oilfield? What are the region's problems and impact on our planet? We'll discuss with a senior official of one of the biggest Middle Eastern countries – vice-president and head of Environmental Protection Organization of Iran, Mohammad Javad Mohammadi Zadeh.

Many casualties resulted from the many wars that were fought during the last century. A high percentage of those soldiers were engaged in combat because there was no ability to opt out. Most of us would not want to go to war, but unfortunately war has a way of finding us.
Right now there are wars going on, but these are wars of a different kind – wars between cyber criminals and organisations, and like the wars of the last century, there is no opting out of cyber war.
So, how do you make sure your organisation is not a casualty of cyber war?
A war can only be one sided when the defence is outnumbered, is ill prepared and has inferior weapons. Does that sound familiar? Are you struggling with each of those dilemmas in your organisation? The good news is that there is a single solution to address all of these and it involves turning your greatest weakness into a secret yet powerful weapon against cyber crime – your users. Why let just the IT team go to battle, when you could have the entire organisation engaged in combat?
Too many organisations attempt to roll out a security awareness program, struggle with it and eventually lay it to rest. I am not surprised. Security awareness is limited. What is needed encompasses security awareness and takes it a lot further – development of a security culture program.
For a security culture program to work, every person within your organisation needs to participate in some shape or form, but therein lies the biggest challenge. How do you get the entire organisation voluntarily doing their part? How can you get people each with different backgrounds, skill sets and motivations all understanding security?
The answer lies in a great quote from Orson Wells. "I can think of nothing that an audience won't understand. The only problem is to interest them; once they are interested, they understand anything in the world."
Here are some tips to get your organisation interested in being part of a security culture program:
(1) Have you ever tried to gain interest in a conversation between two people who were speaking a language you can not understand? It's next to impossible, so the tip is to stop speaking information technology and security jargon to those who can't understand it.
(2) Be enthusiastic about developing a security culture program. If you give off vibes of trying to achieve the impossible, or worse still, that it is simply just a tick the box exercise to achieve compliance or achieve KPIs, it will show. Enthusiasm is infectious so display bucket loads of it.
(3) Have you noticed that in every organisation there is always someone who is willing to wear one of those goofy fire warden hats and help people to evacuate the building during a fire drill, or real emergency? I'm sure they are not trying to make some sort of crazy fashion statement. These are people that want to take on more responsibility and have concern for the well-being of others, and the organisation.
Identify people who actively want to participate in development of a security culture program. These might be your power users or they may be techno-phobic users that have an interest in crime fighting mystery novels. In any case, these people are already motivated to join in.
(4) For the rest of the organisation that would rather chain themselves to a tree than participate, appeal to interests that they care about. Every person will have one or both of these interests: Protecting their families from cyber criminals or protecting their finances from cyber criminals. Run lunch and learn sessions or webinars that educate users on these areas first and then you will be able to draw upon similarities to protecting your organisation's information.
Once the interest has been developed, then we can approach the understanding component:
(1) Provide various different mechanisms for users to learn. Some learn better by reading; some need videos; some need to be alone to absorb material; some are better in a group; some learn by example; some will learn quickly; others will need multiple lessons to learn even the most basic of concepts. Use stories rather than statistics.
(2) People forget things; that's just part of human nature, but they can be reminded. Provide ongoing security tips and progress updates about your security culture program through various means – on the intranet site, in emails, at company wide meetings and on posters throughout the buildings. Make case studies out of the good work that your organisation is doing. This helps keep people involved and motivated.
(3) Almost everybody hates a snitch, even if the intent was well meant. There is a good reason the FBI has a witness protection program. You don't need anything as extravagant, but you do need to provide a means for users who witness suspicions or evidence of insider cyber crime to be able to report it anonymously or secretly so as not to raise any alarms and create uneasy working conditions for "snitches".
(4) Provide rewards for individuals that do good work in promoting or exercising your security culture program. It doesn't need to be the Nobel Prize. Often a gift voucher of some small nominal value is all it takes to make a statement that you recognise their efforts.
Do not put up with an outnumbered, ill prepared and poorly weaponised defence and come out of the battle battered, bloodied or dead. Your secret weapon will be your users, but only if you are prepared to develop a security culture program for your organisation.

Wendy Fiore's Huge Naturals Looking Good in Tight Lace
today I wont be telling you about only one recent pictorial added @ WendyFiore.com, the official website of natural giant titted sensation next door, Wendy Fiore aka Wendy Combatentte.. I'll be telling you about last 2 pictorials added there, cause they are pretty similar – showing super stacked Wendy looking fucking hot in a tight lace outfit.. first off, we have her posing in this tight black lace skirt, with her big soft funbags urging to burst out of that cleavage.. only few days later, she added a similar pictorial of her in this yellow lace one piece, that seemed to be just to tight for her big rack, so she decided to losen up the straps a bit.. which basically resulted in her huge tits spilling out of it.. I just can't believe how fucking sexy and beautiful this woman is:
and before you log into WendyFiore.com and download this entire pictorial, please keep in mind that big titted Wendy was a bus(t)y bee lately, adding couple of awesome videos too, including her black lingerie behind the scene video, and her bathtub video.. join WendyFiore.com today, and see a LOT more of one of the sexiest and bustiest babes EVER!!!
BooB ON!

the last pic… damnnnn. I love that type of pose when it involves a super busty woman
oki, she is hot, but i quit her site. she never will show at any time. as long as we pay for this, this kind of stuff will happen…. ( greetings to jorda carver an deise) BOOB ON
Wendy looks beautiful and sexy once again. As usual though, a bunch of nancies are gonna bitch and moan about her not showing her nipples. All I know is I wish I was the guy giving it to her on a regular basis. That's gotta be one lucky dude. In a 24 hour period I definitely require my 8 hours of sleep. The rest would be devoted to having unrestrained sex with Wendy, with work in between breaks.
oki folks, but what ever happened to denise m? what will ever happen with jordan? when you all join those sites, more and more girls will… you know…
boob on ( . ) ( . )
Photoshopped photos = not worth joining the site. That's all there is to it. Same for Rachel Aldana's site.
its a shame isnt it. i mean shes got a lot of potential even if she just took the money and threw in implants, seeing even a minor photoshopped photo turns me off completely these days and theyre just so damn common too
Meh. Wendy/Denise Milan. All the same. Nice bodies, but a weird attitude towards showing it off. Not for me but whatever blows your hair back.
aww…she put pasties under the white lace so we couldnt get a nipple shot, oh well we still get to see some awsome huge tits I honestly don't know what these guys whine about I mean it's not like any of us are ever going to get to meet her! well maybe if we beg hard enough…

Mulloch Hill (Strachan)
View all content for Mulloch Hill (Strachan)
After a failed attempt the previous week I decided to try and find this cairn with help from the maps and aerial shots sent to me by Les Hamilton.
The previous week saw us approach from the east end of Mulloch Hill but the cairn remained hidden. We had probably missed the site by 20 to 30 meters.
This time I approached from the Nine Stanes end, west, and followed the forestry track heading north east. There is a choice of track fairly soon, I took the track heading south east. After about 500 meters I headed uphill to the top and headed east. The big trees finish and smaller younger tightly planted trees appear. Without damaging anything (meaning trees, my legs different story) I ploughed my way through, sometimes crawling in the hope that I'd bump into the cairn eventually. This plan almost worked, with the help of Mr Hamilton and a grid reference app the site was found.
Sadly the site has been smashed, trashed and planted on in a small clearing. In this sad state it still exists sitting at about 10 meters wide and at its highest 1 meter. Several stones remain earthfast, the probable remains of a kerb. Meanwhile the rest of cairn lies mostly strewn all over the place. This is another site that will soon vanish from view as the forest agriculture will take over.
If approaching from the east look for the 2 trees standing by themselves. Find the mid-point and walk about 100 meters into the dense stuff. Then head south and walk, fall or stumble on to the cairn.
Still the walks round Mulloch Hill are very good and the three nearby stone circles make up for the state of the cairn.

Bit of a rant, but ultimately would like some advice on next steps...
I've been chasing a front end clunk/knock/pop for the past several months. Only occurs in certain situations...going over speed bumps at 20km/hr - 40km/hr, going over uneven roads at less than 40km/hr, turning left from full stop, accelerating on a slight incline and sometimes turning right. Clunk/knock/pop is not constant once it happens and you hear it, usually occurs only once. At first I thought it was my endlinks or sway bar bushings, but had those checked and they're fine. Also had everything tightened. Brought it to 2 different dealership and 3 indy mechanics (even Jimmy wasn't able to find what was wrong) to have a look at to see if one of them is able to identify what is causing the clunk/knock/pop - none were able to
After spending a couple hours online I found another discussion with folks who have been experiencing the same issue and quoted TSB 02-001/16 was able to fix the issue. I figured I'd take a gamble that this would be the fix and made an appointment for today. I took the TSB to one of the dealerships I went to previously and asked them to perform the work on the vehicle based on the TSB. They dismissed the TSB and wanted to do another diagnosis until I told them they already performed a diagnosis and found nothing. Took a little convincing but they agreed to perform the work described in the TSB. Estimated time to perform all tasks on the TSB is listed as 2.4 hours.
I brought the vehicle in at noon and at 5pm I get a call saying that the clunk/knock/pop is still present and they want to keep the car overnight (they close at 6 pm) ... I said I can't leave the vehicle overnight as I commute from work to home via car and couldn't make alternative arrangements with short notice. Went back to the dealership expecting to pay for the parts they ordered and whatever work was done on the car. To my surprise the service advisor handed me the keys and said I'm all set. They told me that I need to make another appointment where I can leave the vehicle for the entire day to have the work done based on the TSB. Here is where I'm confused ... if the TSB says it will only take 2.4 hours to complete, why would I need to leave the vehicle for longer (more labour $$?) and why wasn't work performed on the vehicle today when I brought it in? Service advisor wasn't able to provide an answer when I asked. All they said was once they start the work they'll have to finish (no s**t Sherlock). Maybe I didn't enough time for work to be done today and should have brought in the car earlier?
Between having to educate the dealership about the TSB, having them agree to perform the work today and ultimately not doing anything to my car after having it for half a day, I've lost some confidence in the dealership to do the work. Should I schedule another appointment at the dealership to have them perform the work, this time taking the first appointment of the day or should I just purchase all the parts and bring it to an indy mechanic like Jimmy and have them perform the work on the TSB? Any negatives with the latter?
Apologies for the long post, but thought I needed to rant a little.

Computer woes, Hurricane Sandy, and promoting Magic Moment have kept me from this blog, and all of you for a few weeks. I thought the three revisions I did on my novel and querying publishers was "a challenge." I'm discovering that getting the word out there about Magic Moment is the real challenge. But an exciting one. I'm learning all about "likes" and "tags" on Amazon (Thank you, my wonderful friends over at From the Heart Romance Writers). And, I'm "e-meeting" -- as in exchanging emails -- with so many awesome book review bloggers (Thank you for offering to read Magic Moment).
I had several blog posts outlined, but had to scrap them when my computer went "poof" followed by Hurricane Sandy. While I was self-conscious that I was overwhelming readers with Magic Moment excerpts, I was asked (to my surprise and delight to post another).
Dilemmas and the misconceptions of others have pried Chase and Laura apart. They're expecting a child and are working to find their way back to each other.
After walking around to her side, Chase opened the door. Caressing her hand, he helped her slide out of the car. She swayed, grabbing the door handle.
"I'm tired," she stated as if her exhaustion wasn't commonplace nowadays.
Chase closed the door. Without warning, he slipped his arm under her knees, scooping her up. Her arms encircled his neck.
"You don't have to carry me," she said, her resistance a weak one.
Chase valued any excuse. He relished having her in his arms. "Take
advantage while you can. Keep it up with those sundaes, by next month I
won't be able to lift you."
He started up the walkway.
At the reference to ice cream, she licked her lips. "Chase, you should've eaten some. The fudge sauce was the sweetest I've ever tasted. It was the best!"
"I appreciated your offered spoonful, but I wouldn't dare take one tiny bite from you."
"Oh, I meant you should have gotten your own."
They laughed, reaching the porch. Laura pressed her head to his shoulder. She fit perfectly in his arms, and in his heart.
"Laura," he said softly.
Her eyes were closed, her body relaxed against him. A slight smile curled her lips. "Umm."
"Honey, look at me," he said, his voice gentle. He loved her. She and the baby were his world.
Opening her eyes, she lifted her head from his shoulder.
"I like when you call me 'honey'," she whispered.

What Our Customers Say
Just Associates is the premier provider of high quality data integrity solutions. But don't take our word for it. Hear what our clients have to say!
" The ability to scale cleanup, to leverage the technology that they have to identify whether or not it's a potential match, and the ability to work through thousands of duplicates in a very short period of time all contribute to the value realized from engaging Just Associates "
Cassi Birnbaum, MS, RHIA, CPHQ, FAHIMA
Director of Health Information Management and Revenue Integrity UC San Diego Health
" Twelve years later, the guidance provided by Just Associates continues to pay dividends as we have been able to maintain an exceptionally low duplicate rate of 0.14%. "
Katherine Lusk
MHSM, RHIA, FAHIMA Chief HIM & Exchange Officer HIM / IT Children's Health Dallas
" It takes a lot of resources to maintain MPI data integrity. We simply don't have the staff, expertise or ability to do it ourselves. The real value of Just Associates is that they make it possible for our staff to focus on core competencies because their consultants are focusing on working through identity issues. In healthcare, that's very important. It's been a big advantage for us. "
Michael Quinn
Chief technology Officer, Jefferson Radiology - East Hartford, CT
" Just Associates is our trusted source – our extra arm - for maintaining MPI integrity "
Cassi Birnbaum, MS, RHIA, CPHQ, FAHIMA
Director of Health Information Management and Revenue Integrity UC San Diego Health
" What was most impressive about Just Associates was their in depth knowledge and expertise in Health Information Management (HIM). They were very customer focused and displayed a high level of professionalism in managing the EMPI clean-up project. Not only was the project done within the agreed upon timeline, but it was done with documented quality and assurance. They ensured that their services added value to our project. Just Associates' management team provided EMPI policies and procedures and assisted with HIM information outside the project scope. Because of the EMPI clean-up experience, Mercy has continued to use Just Associates' expertise in other HIM and IT areas and recommends their services. "
Claudine Schiro Baker
PMP, Senior Director, Information Technology Mercy Health Services-Baltimore, MD
" Just Associates did more than clean up our data. They taught us how to perform data clean-up processes in a more formal way. It's like the old adage, 'Teach a man to fish and you'll feed him for a lifetime.' By implementing their suggestions, practices and tools, we have been able keep our data cleaner on an ongoing basis. "
Grant Landsbach
RHIA, Data Integrity/EMPI Manager, Health Information Management Exempla Healthcare - Denver, CO
" We have engaged Just Associates over the past three years to assist with and/or lead several important EMPI related projects. They assessed our registration processes and developed Data Integrity/Patient Access training tools that helped reduce errors. They also assisted in creating a Data Integrity Team and in evaluating 60+ downstream systems for a merge messaging impact analysis. Their extensive Epic Identity knowledge has allowed them to provide us with specific recommendations for our patient matching logic to improve the identification of true duplicates and minimize false positive duplicate pairs. Just Associates has been imbedded in our HIM/IT projects and we have established a true partnership that has served Vanderbilt University Medical Center well. I highly recommend Just Associates! "
Mary Reeves
RHIA Administrative Director of Medical Information Services Vanderbilt University Medical Center
" I came to know Just Associates because our facility had to complete a historic MPI cleanup in preparation for an upcoming computer conversion. Just Associates' expertise in the area of data integrity is outstanding. Their expertise in analyzing, evaluating and merging patient data is excellent. When I heard about their Repair MPI Maintenance program, we immediately decided to outsource the daily management of our MPI patient data to Just Associates. Through their Repair MPI clean-up solution, Just Associates will provide our facility with a seven day per week remote clean-up service. "
Barb McKee
Director of Business Office Operations Sharon Regional Health System – Sharon, PA
" A solution had to be obtained quickly to keep the implementation team from converting corrupt data in to the new data base. Just Associates responded quickly to our call for assistance. References checked out well, and the company deployed an evaluation team to the site within a short turnaround time. The evaluation team quickly evaluated the problem and went to work. "
Karen Clark
System Director, Health Information Management CHRISTUS Health - Houston, TX
" Technology has its place. Regardless of the technology, however, you have to have good internal controls. Over reliance on technology will get you into trouble. There is no magic button. "
Katherine Lusk
Chief HIM & Exchange Officer, Children's Health - Dallas, TX
" We engaged Just Associates to assist PRMC with a large data conversion project. This project involved over 25 downstream systems. Just Associates' unique combination of database, interface, clinical and business process knowledge enabled us to completely understand potential failure points in the conversion. They communicated effectively, getting all project team members to collaborate and they were highly successful at keeping us on task. "
Ray Adkins
Chief Information Officer Peninsula Regional Medical Center - Salisbury, MD
" It's one thing to fix the duplicate patient records that are easy to spot while leaving the rest for the client to resolve, like some vendors. It's another to address those records that are nuanced and complex. Just Associates does both. "
Belinda Walter
RHIT, Health Information Manager Cascade Healthcare Community - Bend, OR
" We were considering an analysis of our MPI to determine the overall integrity of the data and to identify issues that needed to be corrected in preparation for the implementation of a new system. We talked with several vendors and Just Associates was selected because they were able to deliver exactly what we required in a cost-effective manner. Their approach to the project was very professional and the detailed results of the data analysis pointed us to the issues in our data which we were able to address efficiently with the reports that were provided. It was refreshing to work with a vendor that understood our needs and focused on delivering exactly what we wanted without trying to include additional services or solutions. "
Chris Konen
Project Manager, Information Services Christiana Care Health System - New Castle, DE
" Working with Just Associates was not typical of the vendor relationships we'd had in the past. The team quickly became part of our culture and worked incredibly hard to understand how things were done here and how to work within our existing systems infrastructure. The Team Lead was always available and easy to contact, to the point that I had forgotten that she wasn't officially part of our organization! "
Grant Landsbach
RHIA, Data Integrity/EMPI Manager, Health Information Management Exempla Healthcare - Denver, CO
" Just Associates worked with a diverse team and helped everyone understand the methodology used. They set clear expectations and stuck to them. They were flexible with our needs and with our many questions. They provided us with very good reports on the data reviewed. They managed the project well and even completed the work ahead of schedule. I can't imagine a better team to partner with in a Data Integrity project. "
Cynthia D. Kelly, RHIT
Health Information Management Director & Privacy Officer - Kittitas Valley Healthcare, Ellensburg, WA
" We selected Just Associates to complete a detailed data assessment and reconciliation project on our Siemens Invision MPI in preparation for conversion to a new system. The project had a tight timeline for completion and Just Associates demonstrated their flexibility by developing a plan to complete the project by the required date. What's more, they were able to do this and save us 30% over what we had anticipated the project to cost. Just Associates' project team was very responsive to our requests and executed the project in a thorough, professional manner. Their knowledge of our information systems and their experience at completing these types of projects proved invaluable to the success of our project. I would strongly recommend Just Associates to anyone who needs assistance with healthcare data integrity projects. "
Terri Bunsen
Director, Health Information Management Services NorthShore University Health System - Skokie, IL
" Our overall experience with Just Associates on our overlap remediation project was a good one. Their managers and supervisors were pleasant and professional; their previous Cerner experience helped to make our project run smoothly. Weekly updates and progress reports were thorough. We appreciated their willingness to have the team work within the time restrictions of our workday. "
Kathy Hightower
EHR Coordinator, Health Information Management Adventist Health, Inc. - Roseville, CA
" Just Associates has assisted The Children's Hospital with several MPI projects. Their strong healthcare system's expertise and ability to dig to uncover the root causes of data integrity issues has been invaluable. Of particular value was their in-depth knowledge of both the Initiate and Epic systems. Just Associates' thorough and methodical testing enabled us to greatly improve the configuration of Initiate's algorithm which resulted in improved record matching and search performance at our pediatric organization. Additionally, their recommendations regarding operational clean up priorities were well thought-out and tremendously helpful. "
Karen Proffitt RHIA
CHP, Director, Health Information Management The Children's Hospital - Denver, CO
" Subject expertise was exemplary as was the company's knowledge of Cerner. The project was completed on time and on budget! All staff who worked on the project were professional and did a quality job. Thanks for providing the expertise to get this critical job done in preparation for implementing our EHR. "
Mary Kay Plesser
Corporate Director, Health Information Management Columbia/St. Mary's - Milwaukee, WI
" I was amazed at how thorough the pre-planning for this cleanup project was. JA thought of everything! I answered their questions and they got to work and got it done; on time and within budget. A very painless effort on my part! JA also developed procedures for our future use in keeping our data clean. "
Jennifer Stone
RHIA, Director, Health Information Management Woodland Heights Medical Center - Lufkin, TX
" We chose Just Associates because of their Cerner expertise and vast experience in HIM technology. Just Associates understands the nuances of the Cerner system, and as a result, can eliminate problems before they even occur. Just Associates' close relationship with Cerner also speeds problem resolution related to system design issues. "
Meg McGill
Corporate Administrative Director, Health Information Management Methodist Healthcare - Memphis, TN
" I can honestly say that without Just Associates' help we would not have been able to decrease our duplicate patient rate to its current low of .3%. The data analysis allowed Just Associates and us to know exactly what our problems were and pinpoint areas of vulnerability. This was an invaluable part of the overall process of improving identification of a patient. Unless you know where you come from, it is hard to develop a road map to where you are going. They were pleasant and professional however kept on us track. They exceeded expectations, constantly finding ways to improve service delivery, restructure IT processes / software to better meet our needs and help us determine ways to improve data input. The HIM department and IT department felt that we were partnering with Just Associates. It was not your usual consultant experience but more of a partnership with other interested parties. "
Katherine Lusk
RHIA, Director, Health Information Management Children's Medical Center Dallas - Dallas, TX
" Just Associates brought a valuable perspective to our implementation efforts. They were unique in their understanding of how our data inter-relates, and that the data represented people, not just numbers and letters. Just Associates quickly learned our interface structure, clinical information system architecture, and how our healthcare providers use these systems in the real world. They are persistent in uncovering the root causes of data issues and this allowed us to resolve problems once, not just clean up the symptoms. Their participation provided quantifiable value to our organization. "
Blake Smith
Information Technology Evergreen Hospital Medical Center - Kirkland, WA
" Just Associates' representatives were great to work with. They quickly caught on to how we do things here and shared our mission for patient record accuracy. Just Associates was professional, trustworthy and committed to quality which comforted us tremendously. Their senior leadership went above and beyond to assist us with other electronic health record and HIM department initiatives, providing us with excellent future direction. I could not have asked for a better group of people to work with on this project. "
Frank Cardinale
Systems Analyst Columbia/St. Mary's - Milwaukee, WI
" What was most impressive about Just Associates was their in depth knowledge and expertise in Health Information Management (HIM). They were very customer focused and displayed a high level of professionalism in managing the EMPI cleanup project. Not only was the project done within the agreed upon timeline, but it was done with documented quality and assurance. They ensured that their services added value to our project.

Finally, the month of May. Boy, has this been a crazy past few weeks. I will finally be free of everything (besides work, of course) after this week so I will be able to fully put as much attention as I can into my blog again. I've missed writing posts and keeping myself updated on everything going on in the fashion world. This blog is the biggest outlet I have to let myself be creative and escape from everything besides what I love most. May is just one of those months when I have something to do every weekend. Which is fine with me I've just got to get everything done during the week. I have a few ideas for some new posts I'm going to start focusing on weekly. I'm so ready to start getting back on track. Better late than never, here are my May Must-Haves. With the weather being 100 degrees one day and the next raining cats and dogs I had to really think about this month. But like I say after each Monthly Must-Have post I do, this is my favorite. Shop the May Must-Haves below!
1. MARNI, Japanese flower-print dress – I remember seeing this dress on style.com and absolutely falling in love with it. I love the length and the sheerness it has. Perfect for a warm summer night with a jean jacket thrown on with it.
2. VINCE, Deep raglan-sleeve cashmere sweater – Now I know it's the middle of May and yes the temperature reached close to 100 degrees this weekend but no matter how warm it is during the day, I always seem to be cold at night. This sweater is perfect to throw on during those chilly nights.
3. ZARA, jean jacket (similar below) – I've been looking for the perfect jean jacket for summer. When this one came in the mail my boyfriend was so confused why I would get this. Just like the cashmere sweater for those chilly nights, this jean jacket will pair perfectly with cut offs and sandals on those days when a light jean jacket is a must.
4. CHANEL, Les Beiges – I was flipping through this month's Harpers Bazaar and ran across this perfect compact for summer. Now its limited edition and you can only purchase it on chanel.com till June 1 when it goes to retailers. I like the fact that it is not your normal bronzer blush combo. There is no glimmer or glitter to it. Just that natural look I'm immediately drawn to.
5. KATE SPADE, umbrella – The moment I saw Blair Waldorf carry a see-through umbrella on Gossip Girl it was love at first site. This one from Kate Spade definitely caught my eye with the catchy phrase on the side.
6. CHANEL boy bag – This is a Must, Want and a Need. But this will be one I will have to save up for. Loving this jean blue color.
7. CHANEL watch – Love the classic feel of this Chanel watch. Perfect for that everyday gold touch.
8. MAX MARA, Daphne trousers – Trousers have been a big part of my life for the past few years working in an office. Thankfully as the seasons come they become a huge part in every collection. I love the cut of these ones. Lady-like but still good to sit in all day. Plus, the wide hem elongates the legs.
9. YVES SAINT LAURENT, La laque couture in Rouge N Pop Art – During the winter my go-to nail color is a rich wine. For spring and summer I find the best color when paired with sunkissed skin is that classic fire engine red.
10. JEFFREY CAMPBELL, Lisbon embellished sandal – Thanks to Celine, Givenchy, and Marni, to name a few, the Birkenstock sandal is back and better than ever. I am quite excited to get my hands on a pair for this summer.

Last July, more than 1,400 small and medium sized businesses from across the US participated in the pilot of AdWords Business Credit, a credit card specifically for AdWords. While a variety of different businesses benefited from the card — from Kuru Footwear to Cascadia Tents — their reasons for using AdWords Business Credit were pretty consistent. AdWords Business Credit helps businesses pay for their advertising campaigns, keeps closer track of their spending, and most of all, frees up some 'extra credit' so they can invest in their businesses even further.
Get Bats Out was one of these businesses; here's their story:
We want to make it easier for more businesses like Michael's to manage their AdWords account so they have more time to focus on running their businesses. That's why we've recently begun to invite more businesses in the US to sign-up for AdWords Business Credit.
Here are some details about the card:
- In the US, AdWords Business Credit will offer an APR as low as 8.99%*, the same rate as in the pilot.
- Ample credit limit for AdWords advertising purchases and no annual fees
- We're teaming up with Comenity Capital Bank in the US, who issues the card.
After a successful US pilot and our UK launch earlier this month, we're looking forward to expanding this program in the US, and beyond.

* TSX up 202.43 pts, or 1.7 pct, at 12,311.30
* Italy passes austerity measures package
* Mining stocks lead rally (Adds further details)
By Jon Cook
TORONTO, Nov 11 (Reuters) - Toronto's main stock index jumped more than 1 percent on Friday as commodity prices rose on investor optimism that Italy would pass an austerity package that would calm fears about Europe's debt crisis.
Global stocks were buoyed by the Italian senate's clearing of a package of austerity measures that were demanded by the European Union in the face of Italy's severe debt issues. The budget still has to be cleared by Italy's lower house, leaving a degree of nervousness on behalf of investors. [MKTS/GLOB]
After two straight down sessions, the Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index .GSPTSE was up 202.43 points, or 1.7 percent, at 12,311.30.
The heavily-weighted materials sector, home to base metal and gold miners, surged more than 2.5 percent, nearly erasing the previous day's losses and leading the broader market higher.
Barrick Gold Corp (ABX.TO) led the sector, rising 2.9 percent to C$53.49, even though bullion prices slipped as progress in Europe curbed safe-haven buying. [GOL/]
The base metals mining sector also performed strongly, jumping 4 percent, led by Teck Resources TCKb.TO, which rose 4 percent to C$39.26. First Quantum Minerals (FM.TO) was up more than 7 percent to C$19.52 after falling more than 20 percent the last two sessions.
All of the index's 10 main sectors were higher, with energy and financials both up more than 1 percent. (Editing by Jeffrey Hodgson)

Check out this article by Scott Macaulay in Filmmaker Magazine. He has compiled a list of the most important and inspiring indie films for young filmmakers and audiences.
…Are today's young audiences inspired by the current group of independent films? Do these films resonate with them on a deep enough level to inspire their devotion to — and investment in — the practice of making films outside of the studio system? If so, what are these films? Or, is an earlier generation of films and not the current one the ones that resonate most deeply with young viewers today?
1. A Woman Under the Influence
2. All the Real Girls
3. Buffalo 66
4. Chasing Amy
5. David Holtzman's Diary
6. Do the Right Thing (Okay, a studio film, but it should be on this list…)
7. Down by Law
8. George Washington
9. Gummo
10. Happiness
11. Husbands
12. julien donkey-boy
13. Kids
14. Killer of Sheep
15. Minnie and Moskowitz
16. Stranger than Paradise
Tell us what you think. Let us know in the comments which indie films turn your crank, ring your bell and make you dance in your seat. Old Joy? Breathless? How about Stardust Memories or My Own Private Idaho? I'm going with Stroszek, but I have a soft spot for crazy ol' Werner Herzog.

Revel contributors Tim Bowman and Dan Palmer teamed up with…
The Future Banking Ecosystem – Evolution and Innovation in the Digital Era
In partnership with Microsoft, Revel thought leaders Tim Bowman and Dan…
Knowing what's coming is only the first step. Staying at the forefront of the market requires keen foresight into the mega-trends driving customer behavior. As these mega- trends become the status quo, rapid innovation is the only way to keep pace with evolving consumer demands and expectations.
The people at Revel understand this, and are ready to help you migrate from reactive to predictive. We've developed the tools, practices and insights that can drive your digital business transformation – and empower you to embrace the future with confidence.
We are focused on three primary mega-trends – at different stages of evolution – that will impact the path, priorities and purpose for digital business transformation in the coming months and years.
Maturity: Near
Prepare for the death of "channels." Customers now expect a personalized experience wherever, whenever and however they choose. Companies must enable a single, continuous brand experience that transcends channels to become ubiquitous.
This transformation begins by taking a holistic view of your organization, and putting the customer at the center of your business strategy. Technology and information silos must be transformed to create completely complementary, integrated operations – intentionally designed to deliver a seamless, consistent customer experience across all interaction points.
Maturity: Mid
Trust is the currency of the future. By fostering openness and transparency with customers, employees and partners – and giving them the power to dictate their level of engagement – companies earn greater trust, loyalty and profits.
Trust eliminates friction in a customer's decision to opt into new products and services. As you give customers flexibility over their information, you'll gather vital data and feedback that leads to more personalization and new revenue opportunities. However, you must also take precautions to safeguard people's data and ensure appropriate use, or you risk losing their trust forever.
Maturity: Far
As the digital business transformation reaches maturity, most companies won't produce physical goods. They will serve as platforms for consumers to design their own products and experiences. Everything we own will be one of a kind because as scale advantages in manufacturing disappear, personalization will be as cheap as mass production.
When manufacturing requirements no longer dictate the shape and form of complex products, companies must shift from managing operations to accelerating innovation. A strong, data-informed design process will allow you to quickly adapt to consumers' desires within the parameters of mission, functionality and brand.

February 03, 2018 - The Air Force 270 draws design cues from 1992's Air Force 180, a shoe famously worn by Charles Barkley. Built with the all-new Air 270 unit, the shoe certainly amps up the air. That's not all: A custom D-ring strap and molded lateral Swoosh further distort the Air Force 270's iconic predecessor with contemporary styling.
The Air Force 270 launches February 10 on SNKRS and at select retailers.
September 07, 2018 - After leading England to a semifinal match in Russia and distinguishing himself as the top goal-scorer in the tournament, Nike will honor forward Harry Kane with a special-edition golden Hypervenom 3 boot.
A tonal St. George's Cross flag appears on the premium golden boot, along with the England National Team badge. Printed on its instep are symbolic words, such as "Lion" and "Leader," that succinctly describe Kane's rise from his first club, Ridgeway Rovers.
"From our ground here, you can see the cranes going to work at Tottenham Hotspur on the new stadium," says Ian Marshall, chairman of Ridgeway Rovers. "From here to Spurs, and doing what he did at the World Cup, it's inspiring, and we couldn't be more proud [of him]."
Kane will wear the boot upon his international return in September when England faces Spain.
September 01, 2018 - For the third of his Nike Air Max collaborations, the Nike Air Max SK Air, Skepta pays tribute to New York's role in his career trajectory as an artist and rapper.
Following the June 8, 2014 release of the breakout single "That's Not Me," New York City became a crucial jump-off point in Skepta's push to propel the grime music genre from local London sound to global phenomenon. The Nike Air Max Deluxe SK encapsulates his relationship to the city — where he is embraced with open arms in the five boroughs by fans, friends and family — and serves as a reminder of his emergence.
This shoe's reinterpretation of the iconic 1999 Nike Air Max Deluxe (known for its bold printed uppers) features design details inspired by the insomnia of long nights on the road. The medial side of the shoe reads "NEVER SLEEP ON TOUR," an ethos that has fueled Skepta's work rate. The upper pattern draws from the VHS static-led aesthetic found in the award-winning video for "That's Not Me." In a final nod, that single's release date is printed on the shoe's lateral side.
The Nike Air Max Deluxe SK is available beginning September 8 on the SNEAKRS app. Additional pairs will be available in North America at NikeLab 21 Mercer, Concepts, Dover Street Market and KITH. The Nike Air Max Deluxe SK will also release at select European retailers.
August 30, 2018 - There are more ways than ever to rep your favorite team for the 2018 NFL season. For the first time, both women and men can choose from an assortment of club-themed training shoes, combining the comfort of Nike Air Max and Nike Free technology with exclusive team detailing.
The Nike Free TR 8 for women features team branding on the insole, heel and below the lace loops, along with team color patterns on the heel tab. The shoe's slip-in design allows for easy entry, and its Nike Free technology provides a lightweight, barefoot feel. The Nike Air Max Typha 2 for men has team branding on the tongue and the aglets, with a breathable mesh upper and an Air Max unit in the heel, offering support and cushion for wherever gameday takes you.
The 2018 NFL footwear collection is available now on nike.com.
August 30, 2018 - First released in 2016, the Acronym x Nike Air Presto Mid echos designer Errolson Hugh's utility-focused ethos. The zippered collar allows for easy on-off functionality, while the classic mesh upper and midfoot overlays evolve the support structure of the original 2000 Presto.
For the second trio of Acronym x Nike Air Presto Mid releases, Hugh pulls a bold tech-inspired color and graphic scheme. This gives the silhouette a new twist, and one connected to the current "visual projects" Hugh is undertaking by twisting his brand's signature "A" into a camouflage pattern (similar to what was employed on the recent VaporMax Moc 2 x ACRONYM®).
The shoe releases in three colorways — Cool Grey/Black, White Dynamic Yellow/Black, and Racer Pink with Photo Blue/White/Black — on September 20.
More images are available here.
August 29, 2018 - A purposeful mix of Nike heritage, style, and cheeky swagger, the Air Force 1 Jester brings a bold new aesthetic to an iconic silhouette. The shoe — a sneaker made by her, for her — was born from a special project called "The 1 Reimagined," where 14 female Nike designers collaborated for two weeks to create 10 sneakers for women based on the original Air Jordan 1 and Air Force 1 models. With its misplaced Swoosh logos, double-stacked sole, and premium-leather upper, the AF1 Jester has a fresh, tongue-in-cheek vibe befitting its classic forefather.
The AF1 Jester is available August 31 in two new, exclusive colorways, Orange Peel and Olive Canvas, at Bread&&Butter 2018 in Berlin and zalando.com.
August 23, 2018 - Imagine a running shoe that combined the plush, responsive ride of Nike React foam with the breathable support and structure of featherweight Flyknit — and then slid in the full-length carbon-fiber plate found in the now-legendary Nike Zoom Vaporfly 4%. Would it be one of the world's fastest, most durable racing and tempo shoe? The reality is here in the new Nike Zoom Fly Flyknit.
How to Get It
North America
The shoe is available September 13 on nike.com, the Nike app and select Nike Doors and retailers.
Available September 13 on nike.com, and the Nike app in Germany. On October 1, the Nike Zoom Fly Flyknit will be available at nike.com and the Nike app throughout Europe. On October 4, the shoe will be available at select Nike Doors and retailers.
Available September 27 on nike.com and at select retailers, including Topsports, Pousheng, Really, Sanse and Highwave.
Available October 4 on nike.com
August 20, 2018 - Each material used in Nike ACG's Ruckel Ridge has a specific purpose — as well a nod to Nike's outdoor heritage — that gives wearers the ultimate all-conditions shoe.
Here's the breakdown.
- Upper: A speed lacing system and Internal 4D Fit-Mesh upper hugs and moves with the foot.
- Midsole: Pressure absorbing Poron Foam provides unrivaled shock absorbency.
- Outsole: A GravelRockMoss System improves traction allowing for superior stability and durability.
The Nike ACG Ruckel Ridge will be available August 25 in select retailers and on SNKRS and SNEAKRS apps.
August 18, 2018 - Nike ACG's Dog Mountain comes equipped with a durable rubber tread outsole and anti-slip lacing system for superior traction and support. A backward ACG mark is stamped on the outsole, so when wearers walk through snow or mud, ACG will be imprinted on the ground right side up.
Nike ACG Dog Mountain will be available in three colorways beginning August 25 on SNKRS and SNEAKRS apps.
August 16, 2018 - Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne are no strangers to fusing seemingly disparate elements of street and high fashion. Their brand, the award-winning Public School, is predicated on the energy of their hometown, New York City, and its style diversity. Born from this environment, the duo's interpretation of fashion includes recognizing a few tried-and true-standards, like Nike's 1982 classic, the Air Force One.
To celebrate the 35th anniversary of the AF1 last year, Chow and Osborne created an all-new high version of the shoe by deconstructing low, mid and high models and using the unaltered pattern parts to reconstruct their own vision of the icon. That shoe, the PSNY AF1, will launch in three colorways (black, white and grey) at PSNY's pop-up space on 3 Howard Street, New York, on September 4. A global release follows on September 5.

Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones Applauds Passage of SB 1448 by California Senate Committee on Insurance
News: 2012 Press Release
Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones today announced that the California Senate Committee on Insurance passed SB 1448, authored by Senate Insurance Committee Chair Ron Calderon (D-Los Angeles) by a vote of 8 to 0. The bill, which received bipartisan support, is sponsored by Commissioner Jones and the California Department of Insurance. It updates California law to conform to recent revisions to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) Holding Company System Regulatory Act.
Holding company systems are large and complex, and SB 1448 gives the Commissioner much-needed new tools to evaluate the activities of non-insurance entities within a system that could pose a risk to an insurer. "This expanded oversight will provide a more comprehensive picture of an insurer's financial condition and this means better protection of policyholders," said Commissioner Jones.
One principal provision in the bill would require the controlling person of the holding company system to disclose an enterprise risk. Enterprise risk is any situation involving one or more affiliates of an insurer that, if not quickly corrected will adversely affect the financial condition of the insurer. The bill would also authorize the Commissioner to participate in "supervisory colleges". These colleges are meetings of international regulators for internationally active insurance groups to share financial and operational information.
The need for a greater ability to evaluate risks within insurance groups stems from the financial difficulties faced by some affiliates of the AIG insurance holding company system during the 2008 financial crisis.
SB 1448 now heads to the Senate Appropriations Committee for consideration.
The California Department of Insurance, established in 1868, is the largest consumer protection agency in California. Insurers collect $310 billion in premiums annually in California. Since 2011 the California Department of Insurance received more than 1,000,000 calls from consumers and helped recover over $469 million in claims and premiums. Please visit the Department of Insurance website at www.insurance.ca.gov. Non-media inquiries should be directed to the Consumer Hotline at 800.927.4357. Telecommunications Devices for the Deaf (TDD), please dial 800.482.4833.

Day 1.
Well I left home an hour late at 9am. Really I should have left at 7am. This proved to be the only big mistake of the day as it meant that I didn't get to Murchison until 3pm. The weather was clear and sunny but I had a head wind and it was hot! Adi caught me up on the Vespa and we sat drinking glass after glass of coke. Well actually I drank glass after glass.
Just like in the Lord Of The Rings Movie Adi had given me foil wrapped food to take in the morning and I finished the rest of this at lunchtime. That was really my second mistake because I should have had something more substantial.
|Another Hill and My Tummy is Empty.
I assumed that the shop at the 150km mark would be open and it would have been had I left at 7am. But of course when I cruised in at 6pm it had closed. And having not eaten properly at lunch time led to the last 50kms being a real grovel. Luckily I had some chocolate bars and water but I was counting on a big ice-cream and a caffeinated energy drink.
The last hour of the ride would have been a dream with an ice-cream in my tummy because the head wind died down and the temperature dropped to a nice 18C. But with no food I grovelled right up to the end pulling into the motor camp at 8.30pm!
Adi looked after me with a steak meal and plenty of drink. After a hot shower I almost felt human. Another hour or so later I even had the energy to arrange my side of the tent and give Adi a lesson on how men can pee into an old drink can to save walking to the toilet block. I can't say I had a great night's sleep in the tent with the local wekas keeping me awake and too much caffeinated drink not helping either. For that matter my pillow wasn't exactly soft and the loud German van packers next door kept sliding their van doors open and closed at regular intervals. I don't know what's more annoying the sound of the German accent or sliding car doors.
I don't know how I'll go tomorrow after a hard 200km day today and little sleep?

...particular case of Wilfred Doricent,3 an adolescent schoolboy from a small village in Haiti. One day, Wilfred became terribly ill. He experienced dramatic convulsions, his body had swelled tremendously, and his eyes had turned yellow. Eight days later, Wilfred appeared to have died. This was confirmed by not only the family and family friends present but also by the local medical doctor who could detect no vital signs. Wilfred's body appeared to show bloating due to rigor mortis and gave off the foul stench of death and rot. He was buried soon thereafter.
Some time afterward, the weekly village cockfight was interrupted as an incognizant figure appeared. The villagers were shocked as they gazed upon the exact likeness of Wilfred. The person was indeed Wilfred, as his family verified by noting scars from old injuries and other such details. Wilfred, however, had lost his memory and was unable to speak or comprehend anything that was said to him. His family had to keep him in shackles so that he wouldn't harm himself in his incoherent state...
...This provides an explanation for how Wilfred could have been made to seem dead, even under the examination of a doctor. However, we have already said that the TTX paralysis was unlikely to have affected his brain. How does one account for Wilfred's comatose mental state? The answer is oxygen deprivation. Wilfred was buried in a coffin in which relatively little air could have been trapped. Wilfred's story probably goes something like this: slowly, the air in Wilfred's coffin began to run out so that, by the time he snapped out of his TTX-induced paralysis, he had already suffered some degree of brain damage. At that point, his survival instincts kicked in, and he managed to dig himself out of his grave—graves tend to be shallow in Haiti. He probably wandered around for some time before ending up back at the village. This topic was the subject of a horror film, The Serpent and the Rainbow.
Neuropsychiatrist Dr. Roger Mallory, of the Haitian Medical Society, conducted an MRI of zombiefied Wilfred's brain. He and his colleagues found lesions of the type normally associated with oxygen starvation. It would seem that zombiefication is nothing more then a skillful act of poisoning. The bodily functions of the poisoned person suspend so that he appears dead. After he is buried alive, lack of oxygen damages the brain. If the person is unburied before he really dies from suffocation, he will appear as a soulless creature ("zombie"), as he has lost what makes him human: the thinking processes of the brain.
The good news is it's illegal to create a zombie in Haiti!
Of course, the possiblity always exists for a plague of the shambling undead to be unleased, so it's good to be prepared. I encourge everyone to have a copy of the incredibly useful Zombie Survival Guide, and if you have the means, one of these:
Sleep tight.

Someone asked for a photo of the pin/lighter process. Here you go.
First, stick the pin through the cable.
Second, heat the tip of the pin with the lighter for about 5 seconds.
Let everything cool (about ten more seconds).
Note: Do not touch the pin during the heating process or you will get an uneven and ragged hole. Wonder how I discovered this result.

Dear fleegle,
I just bought a set and they are on the way. I can't wait to give this a try. Are you going to sand the points sharper? Do you finish them with anything after you do that like furniture wax or something? Do you glue them on after or before th "hot pin" trick? This is such a hoot!

I bought those needles a little while ago to try them out, but I haven't used them yet. I never thought about giving them a makeover, but I'm going to try your technique now that you've posted it! You always have a lot of great ideas.

For that price, I'm sure it's not too bad even if I mess them up. Must try!

Unlike some of the recent mobility offerings being touted, ShoreTel Mobility supports VoIP/ Voice over wireless local area network (VoWLAN) with automatic handover between Wi-Fi and cellular. ShoreTel Mobility leverages the combination of reactive, proactive and policy metrics to provide reliable, automatic handover in all environments.
Without Client support for VoIP/VoWLAN, enterprises can't leverage corporate and remote WLAN networks to extend coverage and reduce costs.
- Voice calls placed over Wi-Fi do not incur any cellular minutes. They are essentially "free" and do not deduct from a monthly cellular plan's minutes.
- By reducing the required number of cellular minutes per month, many mobile users are able to decrease the cost of their monthly plan by subscribing to a lower number of monthly minutes.
- For corporate users on a "pooled" mobile cellular minute plan, the total number of pooled minutes can often be significantly reduced because of corporate users taking advantage voice over Wi-Fi, rather than placing cellular calls.
- The cost of cellular international calling is substantially reduced or completely eliminated by using VoWLAN, because calls are re-routed from cellular (and extremely high cellular international charges) to the corporate voice network.
- When traveling internationally, international roaming charges are eliminated when using VoWLAN. "Roaming" is often one of the most expensive parts of international calling.
- Internal Wi-Fi infrastructure is often times much more stable and more reliable than traditional cellular networks. This results in fewer dropped calls, significantly improved "in-building" coverage and a better end user experience.
Providing a rich set of reports that enable better telecom expense management and with heterogeneous platform support, ShoreTel Mobility embraces VoWLAN on the more than 25 different devices supported across the Android, Apple iOS, RIM BlackBerry and Nokia S60 mobile platforms.
