Jeroen Sangers needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 80 designs submitted by 16 freelance designers.
"El Canasto" (Spanish for "The Basket") is a popular Spanish personal productivity weblog. Looking for a professional but trendy logo design.
El Canasto
Within a rather short period my weblog has grown into the most popular Spanish site about personal productivity and Getting Things Done. I feel that the content does not fit its amateurish design anymore and want to have a more professional look. I want to start with a completely new logo (the current logo represents more my poor graphical skills than the weblog) and will create a new web design matching the new logo.
The weblog is called "El Canasto" (Spanish for "The Basket") and you can visit it at http://canasto.es/. Optionally you might want to include the tagline "Productividad Personal" in the image (or you can make two versions of the logo). If the logo doesn't have the tagline I will add it at the site.
The site is aimed at a business audience, so I prefer a professional looking logo, however it should not be too traditional.
Currently the site uses a green colour scheme, but you may use any colour for the logo, as I am going to redesign the site anyway.
Ownership of winning entry must be transferred via written contract.
Must be original work and must be free of any potential trademark / use
- Professional but trendy logo
- Optionally include tagline 'Productividad Personal'
- The design must look as good in black and white as in color
- File formats: ~250px wide JPG or PNG, favicon.ico and vector format for later use
- Too many colours / "rainbow"
- Cartoon/clip-art
- Not too "web 2.0-ish"

IRVINE — Six days after undergoing unexpected root canal surgery, UC Irvine junior pitcher Andrew Morales made the Cal Poly San Luis Obispo hitters experience roughly the equivalent of a trip to the dentist.
Morales, recorded 10 of his first 12 outs with strikeouts and pitched seven shutout innings to help the host Anteaters earn an 11-1 victory over the Mustangs in the rubber game of a crucial Big West Conference baseball series on Sunday.
With the win, Morales, a transfer from Rio Hondo Community College in his first Division I season, improved to 10-0 and lowered his earned-run average to 1.79. He finished with a career-high 10 strikeouts, walked one and allowed four hits.
Morales did not allow a runner to reach third base and only two reached second. He retired the final eight he faced to end a streak of two straight starts without a decision.
The victory also propelled UCI (31-16, 13-8 in conference), ranked No. 23 by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Assn. as well as USA Today/ESPN, into sole possession of third place with six conference games remaining.
UCI Coach Mike Gillespie has said a top-three finish will be required to earn an at-large berth into an NCAA Regional. And, with the help of Morales and a 16-hit outburst, UCI moved ahead of Cal Poly (33-16, 12-9), ranked No. 22 by Collegiate Baseball, in the Big West chase pack.
Cal State Fullerton (41-8, 17-4), which plays host to UCI in a three-game series beginning Friday, leads the conference, four games ahead of Cal State Northridge (31-20, 15-8).
There was no chasing down UCI on Sunday, as all nine starters had at least one hit and one run batted in to put things out of reach early. UCI scored two in the first, four in the second, one in the third and four in the fourth to stake Morales to an uncommon windfall.
Sophomore first baseman Connor Spencer had hits in his first three at-bats and drove in two in the first and one in the second with a pair of doubles. He finished three for five with three RBIs and remains atop Big West hitters with a .385 average.
Sophomore third baseman Taylor Sparks was three for five with one RBI and one run scored. In 21 conference games, Sparks is batting .430 and leads all players with six home runs, 27 RBIs and 37 hits (14 of which are for extra bases) against Big West competition.
Junior center fielder Dominique Taylor was two for four with one RBI and two runs for UCI, which had six consecutive hits to fuel its four-run fourth.
"This was one of the good days," Gillespie said of the Anteaters' third win in its last seven games. "Morales was really good and every guy did something at the plate that counted. I thought Friday [a 7-1 win] was our best day [of the season], but this might be our best day plus."
UCI will likely need more good days ahead if it is to return to the postseason after missing out last season.
With eight games remaining, including nonconference home matchups against San Diego on Wednesday and USC on May 21, the Anteaters are hoping to pad a resume that may also benefit from outside help.
"It's very, very, very challenging," Gillespie said of the next two weeks, which include a three-game series at home against Long Beach State to end the regular season. "We're at 31 wins now and [Cal Poly] last year finished second in our conference with 39 wins and didn't get in [to a regional]. I don't know if there is any magic number [of wins], but we just have to win.
"And if we get to the end of the year and we've done well, I think we have some schools on our schedule that, when the dust clears, could be RPI boosters," Gillespie said. "Cal State Bakersfield looks like it is going to win the [Western Athletic Conference]. San Diego and BYU are not out of it [in the West Coast Conference] and Baylor is not out of it [in the Big 12 Conference]."
Morales, Gillespie said, will start on Saturday against Fullerton and Long Beach, as junior Matt Whitehouse shifts to the Sunday starting assignment for the first time since conference play began.
"Wherever I can help the team; wherever they put me," Morales said. "I had to set the tone early today. This was a big win for us and a big game for our team."
UC Santa Barbara (27-21, 12-9), which took two of three from UCI last week, is also in the hunt for a top-three finish. The Gauchos finish against conference bottom-dwellers Pacific and UC Davis the next two weeks.
Northridge is at Cal Poly and home against Cal State Fullerton in its final two conference series, while Cal Poly follows its home dates with the Matadors with a season-ending trip to Pacific.

Kovno Cemetery Database 1941-1943
Compiled by Sylvia Nusinov
The Kovno Cemetery List was produced by the Chevra Kadisha, the burial society of Viliampolė (Vilijampolė [Lith], Vilyampolskaya [Rus], Slobodka [Yid], Wiliampol [Pol]), a suburb of Kovno (now Kaunas, Lithuania).
It is a document which is held in the archives of the Beit Lochamai HaGetaot (the Ghetto Fighters' House) in Israel. The document was produced by Yitzhak bar Moshe Devortsky, and is a list of those who died in the Kovno Ghetto between 18 August 1941 and 31 December 1943, and were buried there. It is considered to be a list of those who died "natural" deaths — as opposed to those who were murdered by the "killing squads".
The American Jewish Archives, in Cincinnati, Ohio, is one of many repositories of vital Holocaust manuscripts. Following a phoned query I had made regarding information relating to Kovno, a photocopy of the original Kovno Cemetery List was found in the AJA's Jacob Rader Marcus Center's Holocaust Vital Statistics File. Mr. Zvi Shner, of Asherat, Israel, had sent the manuscript to the Archives in 1982, where it was subsequently placed in their Holocaust file, waiting to be rediscovered.
This 44-page Yiddish manuscript was mailed to me within a month, and included two cover pages, printed in English, describing the contents. Each page contained 8 to 12 columns and approximately 20 lines, with surnames listed in the first column. I estimated the list contained nearly 900 surnames of the Jewish dead buried in the Kovno Cemetery between the years 1941 to 1943.
The list contains the following categories [reading from right to left on the Yiddish pages, and in the English translation from left to right]:
After a month of searching for translators, at the suggestion of Arline Sachs, coordinator of the IAJGS Cemetery Project, I appealed for volunteer translators by posting on the JewishGen and LitvakSIG Discussion Groups. The volunteers who so ably contributed their time and expertise to the Kovno Cemetery List project were:
Dr. Joseph Ash, Rabbi Edward Cohen, Marc Dver, Prof. G.I. Esterson, Rodney Falk, Prof. Zvi Griliches, Ellen A. Jacobs, three members of Dorothy Kohanski's Senior Group [Harold Friedman, Yetta Gotsyn, and Alex Malkin], Martha Lev-Zion, Avi Lishower, Jeffrey Maynard, Kevin Ossey, Harold Rhode, Robert Weiss, and Jim Yarin.
Prior to entering the Kovno Cemetery List into the database, I asked Robert Weiss if he would proofread the completed project, due to obvious transliteration variations by the volunteers. Additionally, the original list is identified as being written in Yiddish, while Bob defines the List as being written in Hebrew script.
While the 44-page Hebrew manuscript, through translation, and Bob's annotation, has grown to 126 pages, it has been kept intact, retaining the original volunteers' translations, while linked to Bob's notes and transliterations.
For further information, contact: Sylvia Furshman Nusinov and Robert Weiss.
Notes on the Transliteration of the Kovno Cemetery ListBy Robert Weiss, July 1998
The list is in an easy-to-read Hebrew script but the reproduction makes small sections difficult to read. An attempt has been made to standardize transliteration of the personal names and place-names in the Kovno Cemetery List. The original transliteration was done by over a dozen volunteers, who brought with them varying backgrounds and knowledge bases. This resulted in variations in the transliterated names.
For example, the many different ways the common surname "aleph-raish-aleph-nun-aleph-vuv-vuv-yud-tet-shin" was transliterated as "Aaron/Aran/Aron-o/a/e-witz/wicz/vits/vitch/vich". The Daitch-Mokotoff Soundex, fortunately, would have captured all of the variations in a search, but it is desirable to standardize the transliteration within a single database. Then a Yiddish name on the list would be transliterated in the same way each time it occurred, and the rules would allow unambiguous transliteration back to the Yiddish or Hebrew spelling.
The names on the original list were written in Hebrew script. Surnames were, for the most part, written in their Yiddish (not Hebrew) forms, making their transliteration a simpler job, since the vowels are explicit in Yiddish. Common Biblical given names such as Yaakov, Shlomo, Shimon, Moshe, Rakhel, Sarah etc. were written in their Hebrew form without vowels (unpointed).
Since the locale of this list was Lithuania, and the language was spoken with a Litvak Ashkenazic accent, some of the names were actually transcribed as they were spoken instead of in their formal biblical form. In other cases, the local dielectical pronunciation was actually chosen for the transliteration of the biblical name (e.g. Rokhel, Yisroel).
Some arbitrariness occurs when transliterating Yiddish into English in the case of certain letter combinations. For example:
Street names have been authenticated against a list of the streets of Kovno in 1937. In cases where the street was not listed, a question mark ("?") was used to indicate that the name could not be authenticated. In some cases, a possible match is given in parentheses with a question mark indicating an educated guess.

AileenAlannah needed a new other design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 38 designs submitted by 5 freelance designers.
Keep It Together
I am a 74-year-old retired business manager for medical practices. Having just experienced a couple years of serious illness, I found how valuable my lifelong practice of maintaining my own set of medical records has been. I decided to produce a portfolio that would help people to take charge of their own health by managing their own set of medical records.
My first target audience is senior citizens, especially those who are experiencing health problems. Most seniors today are not really "computer savvy," and are more comfortable with manual records rather than computerized ones. They recognize that computer records are hacked into every day by the hundreds of thousands.
My new business helps people to manage a personal record of their medical history. I need a photo or drawing to help me attract customers and explain my business. I envision a photo or original drawing of an older couple. (You may have a better idea.) The man is sitting up in bed holding his chest, in obvious pain. The woman has a worried expression and is on the telephone, obviously calling 911 for assistance. Above it, it reads: It's 4 a.m. (Perhaps below--)Do you know where your medical records are? (There might be a clock in the background that shows 4 a.m.) Below, it says "If you have a KIT from Keep It Together, you know where all your medical records are. You know they are secure and accurate." I will need a place to add a photo or drawing of the portfolio that we sell that includes forms for keeping one's medical records together. I need spaces for website, 800 telephone number, etc. This piece may be used on a brochure or various ads or on the website. Some of the wording can be changed if you have a better idea. If you have a better idea for the picture, that might work. EMTs, for example, carrying the man out the door, might work. Because the target is seniors, the font must be large and plain for easy reading. Feel free to change words or move them around. If you use a photograph, I will need releases from the models.

Your shopping bag is empty.
* Required Fields
SHUKR has 2 sizing's charts to help you choose the correct size: 1) a general Body Size Chart and 2) a Garment Measurements Chart for each specific clothing item. Please refer to both charts to guarantee choosing your correct size. Use the body size chart to take the measurements of your own body and the garment measurements chart to see the measurements of the actual clothing itself, which you can then compare to any item of clothing you already own to see if it is similar or not.
How to take your body measurements:
Height:For best results, stand barefoot next to a doorframe, and then measure from the top of the head to the bottom of your feet. Even better, get a friend or family member to do it for you.
Chest: Place the tape under the arms and measure around the fullest part of the chest and over the shoulder blades at the back.
Waist: Measure around your natural waistline, keeping the tape slightly loose.
Head (for hats): Measure the circumference of your head across the forehead and to the point of the back of your head where you like the hat to sit at.
Take a hat you already own. Using a soft measuring tape, take the following measurement:
Total Circumference: : Using a soft measuring tape, follow the curve of the hat around its complete circumference (i.e all around the hat). Make sure you hold the measuring tape closely against the hat.
Hat measurements are very precise. There is only a difference of 1.5cm between each SHUKR size, so it's important to be careful in taking your hat measurement.
Did you know?
Cotton : The most famous natural fiber, cotton is the most widely used textile fabric in the world. Cotton's popularity stems from its comfort, breathability, absorbency, soft hand, durability and easy care. Look for cotton in many SHUKR designs- from tops and pants to abayas, thobes, and hats.
Further Fabric Details? (Click for more details)
Fabric Weight: SHUKR has classified the different fabrics it uses into 4 different degrees of weight in order to help the customer make an informed purchasing choice:
Fabric Type: Some customers are interested in knowing what the fabric construction is. There are 2 basic types of fabrics, categorized according to the type of machine that makes it: woven and knitted. Woven fabrics come in 3 main sub-categories: plain weave, twill weave and satin weave. Knitted fabrics, like the popular jersey, are normally stretchy fabrics that are good for t-shirts and tops, sportswear and comfortable dresses. Apart from jersey, other common knitted fabrics are French terry, ponte de roma and rib.
Fabric Code: SHUKR, like all companies, often uses the same fabrics for many designs. Repeat customers may like a fabric of a particular garment they purchased from SHUKR in the past and want to know what other products are available in this same fabric.

ThirtyTwo Day at Brighton
The fifth annual ThirtyTwo Day event on 3/2/13 at Brighton Resort was the biggest one yet, with the resort selling thousands of lift tickets, and two hundred snowboarders coming out to compete in the Hell Track Banked Slalom and Rail Jam contests. DJ Jonny 5 (Jon Castro) laid down the sound track for the event at the base of Milly that quickly turned this contest into an all day party. Thousands of people were at Brighton for the event yesterday including local shredders, media and quite a few pro and am snowboarders.
ThirtyTwo Day combines the rider's time on the Hell Track with their score in the Rail Jam; so winning on the Hell Track only puts a rider half way to the overall win. Time doesn't lie, and riders' times on the Hell Track separated the winners from the losers. ThirtyTwo Team Riders Scott Stevens, Chris Beresford, Brandon Hobush, Chris Brewster and Spencer Schubert judged the Rail Jam that kicked off at 3 p.m.
There were $3,200 dollars in cash and prizes given away on ThirtyTwo Day. The overall men's and women's winners walked away with $500 cash, a new ThirtyTwo x Crab Grab board and new ThirtyTwo boots, second place got $200 and new ThirtyTwo boots, third place won $100 and a new pair of ThirtyTwo boots. Cash and prizes were given to the winners of the Hell Track and Rail Jam contests too.

Funding for Study Abroad
Study abroad is an investment in your education and your future, but it does not have to be an expensive one. With careful planning and a strategic use of resources, any WKU student can afford to have an education abroad experience.
Plan Ahead
The key is to begin early. The first step is to select a program that meets both your academic needs and your budget limitations, keeping in mind that there are scholarships available to help reduce the cost. You may wish to consult with a Peer Advisor or Study Abroad Advisor as you are making this decision. Next, develop a financial plan, drawing from available resources such as scholarships, financial aid, and personal funds. The Financial Planning for Study Abroad worksheet may be a useful tool.
Study Abroad Scholarships
Several scholarships are available to WKU students to offset the cost of an international experience. Explore each of the categories below to determine which scholarships you are eligible to apply for.
- WKU Scholarships
- External Scholarships
- Location Specific Scholarships
- Provider Specific Scholarships
- Scholarships for Critical Language Study
The following search engines may also be helpful in locating additional study abroad scholarships:
The Office of Scholar Development (OSD) provides assistance to WKU students as they apply for nationally competitive scholarships such as the Gilman Scholarship, the Freeman-Asia, and the Boren Award. To schedule an appointment, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 270-745-5043.
Current Scholarships and Grants
If you normally receive scholarships or grants towards your education at WKU, you may be able to use those funds for study abroad. While academic scholarships from WKU can generally be applied toward any semester or academic year program, KEES money may only be used if your program fees are billed through Topnet, which is the case for all WKU programs, partner programs, and affiliate providers. Unfortunately, WKU employee tuition waivers and, in most cases, military tuition benefits/VA grants may not be used for study abroad.
To request that your institutional scholarships be applied towards your study abroad fees, email firstname.lastname@example.com with your WKU I.D. by no later than November 1 for winter and spring Programs and March 1 for summer and fall Programs.
Financial Aid for Study Abroad
Most forms of financial aid may be used to pay for your study abroad program costs. If you wish to use your WKU financial aid, here are a few things you should keep in mind:
- Make sure you have a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on file for the current/ approaching academic year.
- Select your study abroad program carefully. Choosing to study abroad on a non-WKU approved program may prevent you from applying your financial aid. To browse programs, click on Find My Program.
- You must be earning credit on your program. This can take the form of WKU credit or transfer credit.
- If you are participating in a summer program, you must be enrolled in at least 6 credit hours (undergraduate) or 4.5 credit hours (graduate) for loans to apply.
- Private/alternate loans may be used to help cover study abroad program costs after other types of federal aid have been exhausted. Generally, a co-signer is required before loans can be processed, and these loans often have higher interest rates than Federal Direct loans.
- Your parents may increase their Parent Plus loan if they have been approved for the current academic year based on the cost of your program. Your parents must notify (firstname.lastname@example.com) if they wish to do so.
- Financial aid may be released NO earlier than 10 days prior to the start date of the program.
For further information, or to request to use your financial aid towards study abroad, please email Tiffany Denton in Student Financial Assistance at email@example.com. You should include the following information in your email: Name, 800#, term you are considering studying abroad, and number of credit hours you will take.

File-boxes in MFC
Posted by Tom Werner Halvorsrxd on January 24th, 1999
Desktop-as-a-Service Designed for Any Cloud ? Nutanix Frame
Wouldn't it be nice to have drive, dir and file-boxes, as in VisualBasic, in MFC. This project give you just that possibility. To use these list-boxes in your project include FileList.h and FileList.cpp in your project and add the following code:
class CLBFileDlg : public CDialog { ... public: // Dialog Data //{{AFX_VIRTUAL(CLBFileDlg) protected: ... virtual LRESULT WindowProc(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam); ... //}}AFX_VIRTUAL private: ... //the three boxes in this example CFileList m_cflDrive; CFileList m_cflDir; CFileList m_cflFile; //user-defined message for communication between the boxes //and dialog (msg is trapped in WindowProc) UINT m_nBoxMsg; ... }; BOOL CLBFileDlg::OnInitDialog() { ... // TODO: Add extra initialization here //register a personal, user-defined msg so that our boxes can post msg's for //interaction m_nBoxMsg=RegisterWindowMessage("Tom's little box"); //init the boxes //the definition of: //BOOL InitBox(UINT res_from_template, // CWnd *parent, // LPSTR lpszPath, // LPSTR lpszFileMask, // UINT flags, // UINT msg); m_cflDrive.InitBox(IDC_LIST_DRIVE, this, "c:\\", "*.*", DRIVES, m_nBoxMsg); m_cflDir.InitBox(IDC_LIST_DIR, this, "c:\\", "*.*", DIRECTORIES, m_nBoxMsg); m_cflFile.InitBox(IDC_LIST_FILE, this, "c:\\", "*.*", FILES, m_nBoxMsg); //in this example we'll just display the selected file in a CStatic m_clsSelection.InitSelect(IDC_SELECT, this); ... } LRESULT CLBFileDlg::WindowProc(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { // TODO: Add your specialized code here and/or call the base class ... //process the user-defined msg if(message==m_nBoxMsg) { CString temp_string; //update the dir-box and file-box if we change drive if(wParam==DRIVES) { m_cflDir.RefreshBox(m_cflDrive.getPath()); m_cflFile.RefreshBox(m_cflDrive.getPath()); } //update the file-box if we change directory else if(wParam==DIRECTORIES) { m_cflFile.RefreshBox(m_cflDir.getPath()); } //for simplicity we'll just show the selected file //in the CStatic else if(wParam==FILES) { m_cflFile.GetText(m_cflFile.GetCurSel(), temp_string); m_clsSelection.SetWindowText(temp_string); } } ... return CDialog::WindowProc(message, wParam, lParam); }
Minor update:Changes since v. 1.0
- improving update in FillBox(): no update untill the box is filled
- much faster draw
- declaring CheckEntry as inline and changing the argument
- moving FillBox over to private-sector
- improving OnDblclk():
if you use the dir-box a lot then the path may look like this
this a right and proper path but of course this one can
be much slimmer, like this:
As far as I can see, all the updates are internal to FileList and does not invalidate usage of this class. However since the header has had an update, a recompile of the project is required.

Making the Team: How VARsity Players use OnPlus to Score
We've seen many trends during the past year start to take hold in the market, with a significant number of value added resellers (VARs) implementing new technologies to better help and service customers. Notably, VARs are placing a strong focus around managed services offerings specific to network administration, virtualization and cloud computing.
As announced in December, Cisco's OnPlus Service is a VAR-specific offering that helps minimize support costs and generate additional revenue while proactively managing customer network problems. With OnPlus, VARs can create or expand their managed service portfolio by providing remote visibility of a small business customer's network, and the corresponding devices, regardless of location, through a scalable cloud-based service.
Since its debut last year, we've received great feedback about OnPlus from press, analysts and VARs alike. VARs, in particular, are quickly realizing the benefits of OnPlus. According to Len DiCostanzo, senior vice-president of community and business development for Autotask, an industry leading provider of hosted IT business management software, integrating Autotask Pro software with OnPlus adds "clear value for our clients, and creates a new range of services they can offer to their SMB customers." At no additional charge, the integration seamlessly converts OnPlus network and device alerts into Autotask service tickets and assigns them to the appropriate internal resource for resolution, according to customizable workflow rules, service level agreement levels and contract terms. Autotask's creative integration with OnPlus helps partners provide better service to small businesses, while eliminating the burden of IT management for these resource-constricted customers.
Are you a VAR that's providing Cisco's OnPlus Service to you small business customers? If so, we'd love to hear about your experience with the service and your customer's feedback. For more information on OnPlus check out the OnPlus web page. We will continue to make updates throughout the year, so check back regularly for new services and capabilities!
In an effort to keep conversations fresh, Cisco Blogs closes comments after 60 days. Please visit the Cisco Blogs hub page for the latest content.

Even credit unions without a social media presence on sites like Facebook or Twitter must comply with the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council's proposed social media guidance, CSI Regulatory Compliance Customer Relationship Manager Lee Thomas said in an Aug. 28 Credit Union Times webinar.
"Whether you are on social media is irrelevant," Thomas said in response to a question from the webinar audience. "You need to monitor social media activity, whether it's direct or what others are saying about you."
That means all credit unions must develop an oversight process for monitoring social media, a task that Thomas said could be outsourced. He added that some credit unions told him they're having an employee print all comments they find on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other sites, but called that process time consuming and painful.
In January, the FFIEC set a 60-day comment period on proposed guidance that would require all financial institutions and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau-supervised non-bank entities to develop formal social media policies and a risk governance program that includes how social media contributes to strategic goals, policies and procedures, third-party due diligence, employee training, oversight, audit and compliance functions.
Related: Check out this webinar on social media marketing and monitoring.
The FFIEC's 60-day comment period ended in March, but the regulatory group has yet to issue final guidance. When the FFIEC released the proposed guidance, it said in a release it would not impose additional obligations on financial institutions, but rather outline steps institutions should take to manage potential risks associated with social media, as they would with any new process or product channel.
Thomas presented examples of how the guidance would integrate existing regulations into social media. For example, social media posts that promote products such as credit cards must include a link to a website that includes disclosures required by Truth in Savings regulations.
Thomas also suggested credit unions make very clear to employees what they are prohibited from posting on their personal accounts. While he stressed that he hasn't heard of personal posts made by employees coming up in safety and soundness exams, he said the topic could potentially be addressed by regulators.
"Your employees have access to a lot of member information," he said. "Make sure loose lips don't sink ships."
Employee personal accounts on social media sites such as LinkedIn and Facebook may include work colleagues and personal friends, further increasing risk for employers.
"You don't want your employee to post something on their personal site that could be viewed as negative or slander the institution," Thomas said.
While state or federal regulators might not target specific employee posts, Thomas said they might ask if the credit union has shared a formal social media policy with employees regarding their personal accounts.

Immersion, you show up on a forum where many of the members are ambient artists or record label owners, or both. You know most of them believe they should have the right to control their own work, to charge for it if they want, and to assert the right to control how other people use it.If you want to disregard the rights all creative artists, at least be respectful enough not to rudely announce, "I don't respect your rights. Even if you don't want me to take your music, I will take it if I want to." To do otherwise is just being a jerk. It's like showing up in a room full of married men and saying, "I dispute your right to protect your wives' bodies, and also dispute the right of your wives to control their own bodies, and I will touch them if I want. You can't stop me, because I disagree with your conservative beliefs." It's just not cool at all.
With all the billions of choices modern synths offer, can't understand why an em/ambient artist would need to sampleand then change someone else's work. Laziness, yes. Stealing, yes.
I'm sorry to hear of anyone being banned - and I have often wondered what immersion's first language is due to the use of 'opinion communicated in the form of fact' and his misunderstanding of people's efforts to communicate more subtle approaches - a sense of ships slipping past each other in the night with increasing levels of frustration and uncomprehension. I nearly asked this on one occasion but chose not to in case it caused offense.I have felt my own frustration in the communications - and found myself having to 'hold my tongue' in some of the interactions as I did (perhaps more a sign of my own emotional insecurity) find the thrust of 'I think you are all idiots (conservative/prostitute etc), lets just agree to disagree - insensitive and I can understand how people became upset. Immersion did not seem to understand, even when it was carefully explained (in numerous of the threads) that his way of communicating was the problem not necessarily his opinions. It pushed people into making defensive responses rather than exploring subjects together - which was also clearly pointed out by numerous people before any defensive statements were made by anyone.All of which was a pity as it distracted from the interesting elements of the discussions and any valid points that may have been included in his posts. It is difficult to see how this could have been resolved differently as eventually the level of upset could have driven people away or caused people to avoid responding to Immersion's posts - neither of which are positive outcomes.Perhaps the strangest thing is that Immersion has been a member of the forum since 2008 and I certainly don't recall any issues like the recent ones until, well, recently......
Good post Mike, filling in a bit more context to where things ended up.A shame in a sense, considering his obvious interest in matters ambient and gear in particular

Sharon Hobart @ C3 necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 59 diseños de 17 diseñadores freelance.
C3 Integrity - http://www.c3integrity.com
C3 | business solutions is a leading, vendor independent, Australian business intelligence and data management consulting firm. A team of top tier consultants in Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra and Brisbane deliver measurable business improvements through innovative products, services and solutions, and with a focus on business outcomes.
We are niche player in this industry, which gives us the flexibility to respond quickly to our client's demands. We compete against some of the the biggest names in Australian IT and management consulting - and believe we do it faster, better, and more cost effectively than most.
C3 Integrity is the brainchild of our software development team and is truly unique as a completely generic data collection, collation and validation platform that can gather data from multiple locations, in multiple formats through a simple web interface. Once the data is uploaded into Integrity, it can then plug directly into a client's data store - no matter what technology they use. This is NOT a reporting tool; it is specifically designed to gather and validate information; turning untrused data into trusted data.
As this is a fairly expensive licensed product (circa $100k per license), we believe the website will be used to do further research pre-purchase. Therefore, we're wanting to build a site that is information rich and that answers the many questions people may have when they are considering a purchase. Specific types of people we are 'selling to' are C-level executives in the private sector and those at a similar level in State and Federal Government. Therefore, the research may be conducted by either a PA or someone who reports into the C-level executive.
We want a site that gives this product serious credibility. We want it to look highly professional and corporate; to look like it is backed by the established, credible, professional organisation that we are (when you're seen to competing with the likes of Australia's top 200, we need to show that we operate at that level too).
The site needs to be clean, crisp and easy to navigate; it needs to look exceptional but not at the expense of useability. We will be using video footage for product demos and product information. and will be building some animated graphics to explain what integrity is and how it works (see attached pptx file which forms the basis for two animated graphics). This site is the 'sales' site, not the product itself.
We have found that the sales cycle for this product is protracted and that people want information before they are willing to participate in tailored product demonstrations (i.e. give us some data of theirs to show what the system can do). So, the site needs to fulfill this purpose.
Longer term, we may want an e-gateway and the ability to download the product but this is in the future and not an immediate concern.
We are looking for a home page design and a generic sub-page design.
We like the structure (not the design!) of the google analytics site http://www.google.com/analytics in terms of layout readability for the home page. I have attached a file that gives a good feel for what is needed on the two pages. see: c3_integrity_website_v2.docx. Feel free to play around with this - these are just thoughts and not set in stone at all - that's why we're looking for great designers/designs!
We require drop down menus for each sub-page as well as 'quick links', 'subscribe to...' and contact us buttons/icons that fit with the overall styling.
We use a 'chain image' to depict Integrity but would be happy to see other suggestions/styling too. We think it would be good to choose graphics or photos to represent each sub-page section but don't want any 'cheesy' people shots. We need photos that portray strength, reliability, trust, professionlism. the files, picture 2 & 3 attached provide PMS/CMYK/RGB logo colour details. Logos are also attached.
The document 'c3integrity profile.pdf' attached gives an overview of the product (the graphic on the front page is outdated - will be replaced by a static version of the pptx file also attached - which we plan to have animated for the website and for presentations).
http://www.c3integrity.com - doesn't have enough information, is 'light on' and targeted at a specific purpose (i.e. 'let us show you the product') rather than being an information heavy site that can be used to research the product.
http://www.c3businesssolutions.com - a little dated now but gives a good feel for the organisation.
http://www.google.com/analytics - like the structure, not design.
http://www.yellowfin.com.au - good funcationlity and nice to look at (and operate in the same space at C3)
http://www.globalcarbonsystems.com/ - good animated graphics, easy to use and looks highly professional
http://www.carboninsight.com.au/solution.html - easy to follow site, not ideal for us on design but simple.
https://www.sugarsync.com/ - like the simplicity and styling of this (accessible to anyone), messaging is clear and concise (although this is very mass market and consumer targeted, we're looking at corporate target)

As Mets fans, we have had a lot to be thankful for over the years. First and foremost, we have a team we care about deeply. They give us a release from our daily trials and pressures.
If you're a shut-in, they give you entertainment and a sense of belonging to a greater entity. They make your day.
They are our team, unlike any other, and we are thankful for the passion in our hearts whenever we find our seat at Citi Field or turn on the television. For the next three hours, they entertain and sometimes frustrate us. But, we'll always watch.
I don't believe in the term "die hard Mets fan,'' because dying means you eventually turn away from them. If you're a fan, you always stay. Once you give your heart to them, you don't take it back.
I also don't believe in "long suffering Mets fan." They might frustrate us, but we don't watch to suffer. We watch in hope.
It's why, on the day after Thanksgiving, you're reading Mets blogs, you're waiting for the Winter Meetings and the hope they'll do something big, and you're waiting for spring training.
Quite frankly, the Wilpons and GM Sandy Alderson, from their lofty perches, don't understand what we do about the team they run.
It's the holiday season and the order is Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, and Opening Day. Aren't they the ones that really matter?
As a Mets fan, what are you most thankful for?
How about William Shea, who when the Dodgers and Giants left the city, fought to bring National League baseball back to New York?
You're thankful for:
Catcher Hobie Landrith, the first player taken by the Mets in the 1961 expansion draft.
Casey Stengel, the Old Professor was the Mets' first manager. His words made us dizzy as we watched that 120-loss team in 1962.
Don Zimmer, a Brooklyn Dodger who became an original Met.
Frank Thomas, the Mets' first star and Ron Hunt, the first All-Star.
We're thankful for the legends of Marvelous Marv Throneberry; Choo Choo Coleman; Al Jackson; Roger Craig; Jim Hickman; Roy McMillan and his specs; Jay Hook, the winning pitcher in the club's first victory.
We're thankful for the former stars who became Mets for a brief time: Richie Ashburn, Gus Bell, Duke Snider, Yogi Berra, and, of course, Gil Hodges.
We're thankful the Mets let us watch baseball once again in the Polo Grounds. And, we're thankful for Shea Stadium, that when it opened in 1964 brought a bright and shiny toy for our team to play in.
Once state-of-the-art, even when Shea Stadium became cold, drafty and leaky, we're thankful because it was our home.
We're thankful for Hodges' steadying hand that brought us the Miracle Mets of 1969, with the celebration at Shea Stadium. We're thankful the Mets became baseball's best "worst-to-first story.''
We're thankful for 1969, and the brilliance that was Tom Seaver, a future Hall of Famer and the franchise's greatest player.
We're thankful that season also showcased Jerry Koosman's guile; Jerry Grote's toughness; Bud Harrelson's steadiness at shortstop; Ed Kranepool, who struggled through the hard times to taste champagne; for Tommie Agee's glove and power; for the addition of Donn Clendenon; and for the steady bat of Cleon Jones.
We're thankful Hodges had the backbone to publicly discipline Jones, a turning point to that season.
We're thankful we saw a real team in 1969, with many non-descript players had their moments. Al Weis, Ron Swoboda, Don Cardwell, Ken Boswell, J.C. Martin, Joe Foy, and so many others.
We're thankful we got to see Nolan Ryan in his Hall of Fame infancy that year.
We're thankful for organist Jane Jarvis, sign-man Karl Ehrhardt, Banner Day, and the guy we sit next to for nine innings and talk Mets.
We're also thankful for the second championship season, 1986, when victory was expected and featured one of the game's greatest comebacks.
We're thankful the immense talent that wooed us that summer: the brashness of manager Davey Johnson who predicted domination; Keith Hernandez's leadership, a nifty glove and timely bat; the captaincy of Gary Carter that put the team over the top; the grit and toughness of Len Dykstra, Wally Backman and Ray Knight; the prodigious power of Darryl Strawberry; and, of course, Mookie Wilson.
We're thankful for Dwight Gooden's mastery and the K Corner; Sid Fernandez's overpowering stuff; and the calmness of Ron Darling and Bob Ojeda. We're thankful for the deepest rotation in franchise history.
We're thankful the "ball got through Buckner."
Although they didn't win, we're thankful for the World Series runs in 1973, 2000 and 2015. Because, even in defeat, those teams brought thrills, joy and pride.
We're thankful for so many more stars thrilled us, even if it was for a brief time: Lee Mazzilli and Rusty Staub; Jon Matlack and Al Leiter; John Milner and Carlos Delgado; Roger McDowell and Jesse Orosco; John Stearns and Felix Millan; Tug McGraw and David Cone; Howard Johnson and Edgardo Alfonzo; Jose Reyes and Daniel Murphy; Hubie Brooks and Jon Olerud; Rey Ordonez and John Franco; Dave Kingman and Rickey Henderson.
There are so many. You think of one and another comes to mind.
We're thankful we got to see Willie Mays one more time in a New York uniform. He wasn't vintage, but the memories of him were.
We're thankful Carlos Beltran always busted his butt for us, even playing with a fractured face.
We're thankful for Johan Santana's willingness to take the ball and the might he finally gave us a no-hitter.
We're thankful to have a player who embodies the word "class,'' and that is David Wright. We're thankful we saw his development from prospect to All-Star. He means so much to us that we hurt when he hurts.
We're thankful the game's greatest hitting catcher, Mike Piazza, thought so much of his time here that he chose to wear a Mets' cap into the Hall of Fame. There's no greater honor a player can give to his city and fan base.
We're thankful for the great rotations we've had, and for the future of the rotation we have now: Matt Harvey, Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, Steven Matz and Zack Wheeler. They give us dreams.
We're thankful for scintillating moments veteran journeymen pitchers R.A. Dickey and Bartolo Colon gave us. They gave us a chance to win every fifth day.
We're thankful for Citi Field, one of baseball's jewel stadiums. Hopefully, it will bring us the great moments Shea Stadium did.
We're thankful for so many great plays, from Jones' catch to end the `69 Series to the plays made by Agee and Swoboda that year. … For Staub playing with a busted shoulder in `73, and, Endy Chavez's catch in the 2006 NLCS.
We're thankful for the summer Yoenis Cespedes gave us in 2015 and wonder if he'll be back for more.
We're thankful for the enduring pictures and images spun by the words of Bob Murphy, Ralph Kiner and Lindsey Nelson. We're thankful for Kiner's stories and malapropos; Nelson's sports coats and the soothing voice of Murph, especially after that win over the Phillies: "and the Mets win it … They win the damn thing."
We're thankful for that great broadcasting team, and the one we have now in Gary, Keith and Ron. We're thankful Gary Cohen is staying.
We're thankful for the voices when we're in our cars or grilling on the deck: Howie Rose and Josh Lewin bring us to the game.
We're thankful for so many memories and for the memories to come.
Yes, with Thanksgiving gone and Christmas approaching, the Mets give us so many reasons to be thankful. Not the least of which is hope for 2017.

Rob Lowe JFK
Rob Lowe is playing JFK in a new documentary drama on National Geographic called Killing Kennedy. Entertainment Weekly has posted the first photo of him in character recreating JFK's famous White House portrait. It's very, very good, right?
Also attached -- Lowe in New York this week looking...well...as usual... ridiculous. It's ridiculous. Every time I post pictures of him, Duana always emails like, WHAT THE F-CK? Ok, maybe without the all caps but you get the idea. He's beautiful. And it seems like it's eternal. Exactly the opposite of the character he played in Behind The Candelabra. Is that irony? What Liberace would have given to look like Rob Lowe...

Asian Indentured Labor in the 19th and Early 20th Century Colonial Plantation World
Richard B. Allen
The period between the mid-1830s and early 1920s witnessed the migration of some 3.7 million Africans, Chinese, Indians, Japanese, Melanesians, and other peoples throughout and beyond the colonial plantation world to work as laborers under long-term written and short-term oral contacts. Studies of this global labor migration over the last forty years have been heavily influenced by Hugh Tinker's 1974 argument that the indentured labor system was essentially "a new system of slavery." There has also been a propensity toward specialized and compartmentalized studies of the indentured experience in various parts of Africa, the Caribbean, the southwestern Indian Ocean, India, Southeast Asia, and Australasia, with a particular emphasis on systems of labor control and worker resistance. Recent scholarship reveals that this labor system began two decades earlier than previously believed, and illustrates the need to explore new topics and issues in more fully developed local, regional, and global contexts.

Tu B'shvat falls on the 15 of Shevat and as the kids' school song goes – it starts "a new year for the trees". It is customary to eat fruit on this day, particularly fruit that are singled out by the Torah in it's praise of Israel. These fruit are grapes, figs, pomegranates, olive and dates. In addition, we customarily eat a new fruit that we didn't eat the entire season so that we can recite the blessing of Shehecheyanu.

- England news
Hodgson: English football needs overhaul
England manager Roy Hodgson has called for a complete re-evaluation of the English game in order to challenge the best teams for international honours.
The former Inter Milan, Switzerland and Liverpool manager cited world and European champions Spain as an example England are already trying to aspire to, and referencing the way Germany, semi-finalists in their last two major international tournaments, have honed their game to a strict philosophy and nurtured a production line of young talent to compete at the highest level.
Hodgson insisted it is time England stopped relying on the outdated notion that the national side will prosper because of a sprinkling of talent at the top level and focus on introducing methods to compete with the best countries.
"Lots of teams we regarded as secondary teams have worked harder on their games," he said. "I can mention so many countries putting so much effort into producing players, maybe we ought to start thinking the same.
"We need to start producing players, and look after them very, very well.
"We saw the Germans after 2002, they sat down and they really reanalysed what German football was all about. The Spanish have done the same thing. This is maybe what we are doing in England now.
"Even if they are not regulars in their (club) team, we are going to need to develop these players and accept that if we are going to get better, we have to work hard on their game. I haven't noticed a lack of passion or enthusiasm.
"When I started with England, I didn't know what to expect, you hear a lot and read a lot and I met a group of players who are every bit as passionate about football as I hope I still am."
Hodgson also pointed out that a revamp of the traditional footballing methodology is not a guarantee to success in international football where teams can be eliminated from tournaments through luck or decision making.
"People forget it's a game played by 22 human beings where errors and mistakes and opportunity and chance play a part," Hodgson added.
"Sometimes we don't pay enough lip service to the fact that referees will give penalties they shouldn't, players will slip over at the wrong moment and your world class centre forward will miss a chance your grandmother could have scored.
"It's a trial by television today, certainly for referees, they are really hard done by. The referee has to decide in normal time, but the experts who analyse do so with the benefit of hindsight, hundreds of cameras and slow motion.
"If you ask me to swear blind the right decision (was made in real time), I couldn't tell you. We don't allow technology so maybe the time has come to take the pressure off referees.
"If we're not going to use videos like cricket or rugby, we have to accept the errors will always be there."

US Shipping
Those in the contiguous United States are eligible for free shipping over $49 of product purchases. Under $49 will result in a flat shipping rate of $9.95. We ship orders out same day whenever humanly possible, and next day when getting a shipment to the carrier would no longer be feasible.
We ship USPS, using their 2-3 day shipping option.
For those in Alaska and Hawaii or in the military overseas, the shipping charge starts at $12.95 and will be calculated by weight at checkout.
Canada Shipping
Shipping fee starts at $35 for the first 7 lbs. The fee increases by $3 per each additional pound. Once the shipping fee meets our maximum fee of $60 the price will not increase thereafter. Some products have a "Shipping Weight" in addition to the the product weights. This is the weight that is used when calculating your shipments. The weights are in ounces, so for your quick reference, 7 pounds equals 112 oz.
US Returns Policy
You may return most new, unopened items within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. We'll also pay the return shipping costs if the return is a result of our error (you received an incorrect or defective item, etc.).
You should expect to receive your refund within four weeks of giving your package to the return shipper, however, in many cases you will receive a refund more quickly. This time period includes the transit time for us to receive your return from the shipper (5 to 10 business days), the time it takes us to process your return once we receive it (3 to 5 business days), and the time it takes your bank to process our refund request (5 to 10 business days).

Canadian Return Policy
We wish we could be as generous with our return policy with our Canadian customers as we are with our US ones, but the shipping is currently cost prohibitive. During our months of beta testing shipments to Canada, our customers did not experience a single broken item. However, I know that eventually our luck will run out and a box, for whatever reason, will experience damage. If you happen to be on the unlucky receiving end of such an incident we will promptly return your funds or issue a store credit, whichever you prefer.
We would LOVE to serve the entire worldwide AIP community. We are working diligently to make the company a big enough success at home so that we are capable to moving out into other parts of the world. At this time, the shipping costs from the US to other countries are too steep for any of our customers to be willing and able to pay. For example, I'd estimate that the minimum shipping charge to Europe would start around $60 for a 7 lb shipment. So far, I haven't had anyone willing to pay $60-$150 for a relatively small amount of AIP products.
If you are unfazed by high shipping costs, I'd be happy to speak to you to see if we can open up our system to accept your country and you can become the first beta tester for your country (this is how it was done for Canada). Even if you aren't - we love hearing from our International community and if you drop me a line to let me know where you live, it will help determine future ShopAIP locations.
