January 31, 314: Sylvester I whose name is "the Israeli term for New Year's eve celebrations" began his papacy.
Silvester or Sylvester (also spelled szilveszter, sylvester or sylwester) is the day of the Feast of Pope Sylvester I, a saint who served as Pope of the Roman Catholic Church from 314 to 335 and oversaw both the First Council of Nicaea and Roman Emperor Constantine I's conversion to Christianity. The feast day is held on the anniversary of Sylvester's death, December 31st, a date that, since the adoption of the Gregorian calendar, has coincided with New Year's Eve.
As a result, many Europeans call New Year's Eve "Sylvester." When European Jews started to emigrate to the Land of Israel starting in the nineteenth century, the new year in their new country was, of course, Rosh Hashanah. But they still wanted to mark the changing of the secular year as in their old countries, so they continued to celebrate "Sylvester."
Over time, the practice grew in popularity – especially after the aliyah in the 1990s from the former Soviet Union, where Christmas was banned and everyone celebrated Sylvester instead – to the extent that Sylvester parties are now held in many bars, clubs, restaurants and peoples' homes each year. As more and more Israelis consume American and European popular culture, they have also become more familiar with other holidays such as Thanksgiving and New Year's Eve.
Of course, it would not be Israel without a controversy! Many religious and some secular Israelis do not celebrate the holiday because it is not a Jewish one. And while there are not too many confirmable details about the life of Pope Sylvester, there are some anti-Semitic stories. According to this U.S. News & World Report article from years ago:
"The year before the Council of Nicaea convened, Sylvester convinced Constantine to prohibit Jews from living in Jerusalem. At the Council of Nicaea, Sylvester arranged for the passage of a host of viciously anti-Semitic legislation. All Catholic saints are awarded a day on which Christians celebrate and pay tribute to that saint's memory. December 31 is Saint Sylvester Day – hence celebrations on the night of December 31 are dedicated to Sylvester's memory."
Over the following centuries, the New Year reportedly brought much anti-Semitic activity:
On New Year's Day 1577, Pope Gregory XIII decreed that all Roman Jews, under pain of death, must listen attentively to the compulsory Catholic conversion sermon given in Roman synagogues after Friday night services. On New Year's Day 1578, Gregory signed into law a tax forcing Jews to pay for the support of a "House of Conversion" to convert Jews to Christianity. On New Year's 1581, Gregory ordered his troops to confiscate all sacred literature from the Roman Jewish community. Thousands of Jews were murdered in the campaign.
Throughout the medieval and post-medieval periods, January 1 – supposedly the day on which Jesus' circumcision initiated the reign of Christianity and the death of Judaism – was reserved for anti-Jewish activities: synagogue and book burnings, public tortures, and simple murder.
So, whether one celebrates Sylvester is up to the individual Israeli. In fact, if you ask Israelis why they celebrate Sylvester, they'll most likely shrug and reply, "Life is hard here – we'll take any excuse to party!"
If you are in Israel, though, make sure you do not party too hard – since Sylvester is not an official holiday and January 1 is just a regular day, you'll have to go to work or class!
Presented here for your consideration is a 12-lira stamp issued by the Vatican City postal authority in 1953 honoring Pope Sylvester I (Scott No. 194).

It's hot, hot, HOT!
If you are anywhere near the Midwest right now, you know just how hot it is, and there is no apparent end in sight. So, in honor of this sweltering heat, we've sourced some of the best tips on how to stay cool.
- The Mayo Clinic staff produced this article on how to stay cool while exercising outside, "Heat and Exercising: Keeping Cool in Hot Weather." Hot weather adds extra stress to your body, which can be troublesome when exercising and already raising the temperature of your body. In order to counter the heat, they suggest watching the temperature outside and exercising during the early morning or later evening hours. Also, acclimate yourself to the heat before going into an all out sprint. Wearing lightweight, loose-fitting clothing can also help, plus drinking plenty of fluids. Dehydration is the key factor in heat illness, and it's best to drink lots and lots of water – yet avoid alcoholic beverages.
- InStyle Magazine, in their "10 Ways to Stay Cool" feature proclaimed, "You don't need us to tell you that a ponytail feels lighter than a heavy, down do. But we can tell you why. Keeping your neck cool helps regulate your body's overall temperature. So slick up your hair like Joy Bryant." They also suggest sipping on a mint drink or nibbling on mint leaves, "The menthol in mint triggers the skin's cold receptors, which is why the herb is cooling when applied topically, eaten—or sipped on the rocks with club soda and lime juice." InStyle provides some other interesting beauty tips for the heat; click the link above to check them out.
- To keep your house as cool as possible, and keep your air-conditioning bills in check, follow some of these tips from the blog, Leave Debt Behind. The blog suggests using fans, turning up your thermostat when you are not in the house, closing shades/blinds and changing the air filter in your A/C.
- Then, of course, there is the tried and true method of a Pool Day!
>> How do you beat the heat, or at least deal with it? Let the community know by replying to this story.
See you at the pool!

Montreal, November 28, 2013 --- Montreal's record on racial profiling will be once again under the scrutiny of the Quebec Human Rights Tribunal as the Montreal Police recently disregarded the human rights commission's order to compensate two Black brothers for having profiled them back in 2007.
Last October, the Quebec Human Rights and Youth Rights Commission ordered the City of Montreal to pay $22,000 in damages to the two brothers for having subjected to discriminatory interception and treatment.
The case involves an incident in September 2007, when two men in their twenties drove downtown in their Mercedes sports car to go shopping on a Saturday afternoon. They were initially stopped by two female police officers of the SPVM who claimed that the men were engaging in reckless driving (which they denied) and were revving the engine (which, according to the two men, was impossible given the car model). During the interception, one of the officers asked the passenger to show his ID, which he refused to do because such a request is against the law.
After the first interception, the two men continued driving, but were soon followed by a second police car, driven by two male officers, for more than seven blocks downtown. Finally, when the men parked on Drummond Street above St-Catherine Street, the police car which followed them stopped in the middle of the street, parallel to the Mercedes.
The two brothers approached the police car and asked if there was a problem. They were told that everything was correct and returned to the sidewalk. The police officers, who had driven away, suddenly backed up the street to intercept the two young men and fine them for walking on the street.
Realizing that the fine was an excuse to identify them, the same day the two brothers mandated CRARR to file complaints of racial profiling and police ethics violations against the four officers.
Five years later, in 2012, the Police Ethics Committee ruled that the male officers had brought an unjustified charge against the two brothers, and that they had acted illegally. The tribunal imposed on the officers a suspension of seven days and five days' suspension without pay. "The officers obtained the men's identification in this underhand way […] which they subsequently transmitted to the relevant authorities," wrote the Committee. The Police Ethics Commissioner had ruled out the racial profiling dimension of the complaint against the two male officers, without explanation, before summoning the two officers before the Police Ethics Committee.
The complaint against the two female officers was dropped after conciliation with the Police Ethics Commissioner, and dismissed by the human rights commission last month due to lack of evidence.
The two male officers were found by the Police Ethics Committee to have issued a fine without justification and illegally arrested the two Black brothers, and were suspended without pay for seven and five days respectively. However, the officers appealed the decision and the Court of Quebec struck down the sanction last month.
CRARR is discussing with different organizations in and outside of Montreal on ways to be involved in the case.
"There have been, in the last two years, new important court decisions across Canada, plus there is a new city administration in Montreal, so this case will give stakeholders an opportunity to provide an update on the state of racial profiling and law before the Tribunal," noted CRARR's Executive Director Fo Niemi.

Question about 1989 kawasaki ZX 10
Rebuilt carbs. Replaced all o-rings and gaskets. When testing with a fuel "iv" bottle (No gas tank), the fuel gushed through and poured out of the airbox side on all carbs. I thought that's easy, I'll replace the valve pins. Now that they are replaced, it flows even worse. I have adjusted the float height to 13mm. While testing, I have not hooked up anything to the carbs. I am running it with only the bare carbs with the vacuum ports covered, no air box. I'm at my wits end to why the fuel is flowing so freely. The bike will run, but very rich. Smoke pouring out of the exhaust. Do I need to hook up all the vacuum lines for it to stop fuel flow and run correctly? What's going on?
Thank You!
Posted by johnesmith1 on
Thank you for your input. The only thing left to do is replace the valve pin seats. I hesitate because they are about $30 each times 4, also when I blow through the fuel line and push the valve in and out, it does stop the flow. I tried adding 5mm to the float height to try and stop the flow. The valve almost does not open now and gas still flows. I'm thinking it may be a start up phenomenon. Gas is supposed to flow when it initially fills the bowl. So I'm going to leave the floats high and put it together and run the bike and see what happens. Is there a way to let you know what happens?
Another thing I can do is test the carb on my EX500 (twin). I have a pair out of the bike on the work bench. It would be easy for me to test them to see if gas gushes out on initial bowl fill.
Hi and welcome to FixYa,
Initially, to your queries:
Just a start, do postback how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and Thank you for using FixYa.
Posted on Nov 24, 2008
Perhaps you can defer if not cancel the purchase of the valve pin seats. Most floats I have worked on tend to stick/lock down on an empty bowl. On the first fillup, there would be delay before they would really float up to close/push the valve pins. One trick I often use is to partially fill each bottom half of the carb (the bowl) before attaching it back to the main body. This of course would mean that the screws would have to be tightened from below. Another is to gently knock on the carb's body while first turning on the fuel ****
Posting back here would be do, the site would notify me that you have a new comment.
SOURCE: I have freestanding Series 8 dishwasher. Lately during the filling cycle water hammer is occurring. How can this be resolved

Why do people work on open-source software?
As every individual, therefore, endeavours as much as he can both to employ his capital in the support of domestic industry, and so to direct that industry that its produce may be of the greatest value; every individual necessarily labours to render the annual revenue of the society as great as he can. He generally, indeed, neither intends to promote the public interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it. By preferring the support of domestic to that of foreign industry, he intends only his own security; and by directing that industry in such a manner as its produce may be of the greatest value, he intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention.
Adam Smith, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations
It's not hard to create a plausible economic model that explains why open-source software exists. One argument is that enterprise software has a minimum cost associated with developing and marketing it. These costs include the engineers that write the software, the people that test it, the sales engineers that install it at customer sites, the sales people who help customers through the sales cycle, the marketing people who let customers know what's available to solve their problems, etc. The total cost of all of these isn't cheap, so if a particular application isn't worth more than that fixed cost, it can't be the basis for a profitable business.
But if there's a demand for something at a lower cost, someone will probably find a way to make it happen. It's much like minimum-wage laws. There are some jobs that just aren't worth the minimum wage, and when this is the case, people find ways to get those low-value jobs done, even if it involves breaking the law. They might hire illegal immigrants for less than the minimum wage. Or they might agree to pay someone cash to avoid the taxes that, from the point of view of the employer, are also part of their cost of labor.
On the other hand, an argument like this only describes market forces, Adam Smith's invisible hand that makes things happen. It might explain why open-source software exists, but doesn't really tell us why any particular person would make a decision to work on open-source software. That may require a different explanation. Here's one, and it's based on modeling contributing to open-source software as a tournament. It's much like the model that Stephen Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner used in their book Freakonomics to explain why so many drug dealers earn roughly the equivalent of the minimum wage.
It turns out that almost all drug dealers don't make very much money. These are the ones that actually sell the drugs on the streets. The real money is in managing an organization of drug dealers, and Levitt and Dubner describe how the entry-level drug dealers tolerate the low pay because they hope to eventually become one of the managers. In this sense, drug dealing can be modeled as a tournament that selects the most fit drug dealers and promotes the winners into the more lucrative jobs.
Maybe this model also applies to open-source software. After all, being a recognized contributor to a big, successful open-source project is also a good way to get a high-paying programming job. So it might be the case that the programmers who donate their time to open-source projects do this in the hope of becoming an open-source superstar one day. This doesn't sound obviously false, and it does give you a good way to start a conversation: "Did you know that open-source programmers are like drug dealers?"

I jokingly refer to these dinner's as our "last supper." This classic mid-east restaurant is the perfect host for the discussion of the Passover and also Jesus "last supper," so it's an appropriate sentiment. One of my favorite times with each group is the very end when people are preparing to return home, and begin to reflect on what they've learned and how they won't return the same. It's astounding.
In my experience, everyone who travels to this land leaves changed. Part of that is because it's a new culture, and experiencing culture's other than our own changes us. The other is seeing the Bible come to life before you feet as you walk through the land in which it was written. You're standing on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, its water stretching out before you and suddenly stories you've read and re-read become tangible. You hear the water lapping the shore line, feel the wind on your face, touch the cool waters, see the fishing boat moving slowly and suddenly stories of Jesus unfold before your very eyes.
No matter how many groups I see, or people I meet who've journeyed here, I will never get used to hearing the life-changing testimony that people declare. Listening to the group share from the joy in their hearts tonight after 2 weeks of intense study in the land of the Bible was so inspiring to me. That is why Geoff has dedicated so many years of study and passion to exploring this Text in its original context, and why we study with so many different people and groups before leading our own. We want to take what is always an incredible experience - to its greatest potential.
We love working with Dr. Jim Martin because he shares our passion for transforming a trip to the Holy land from a tour into an intense Biblical study trip for students of the Word. Even a tour provides an incredible experience but to engage the land and each site through the time periods, cultures, and geography of the Bible allows an entirely different level of insight to the Text. One of my favorite testimonies tonight was someone saying the trip was "like a second honeymoon with the LORD." That spark was re-lit, the scriptures had fresh light, and paradigms had shifted.
Those who get the most out of these trips come prepared, having studied provided materials and bring an open heart and mind, ready to learn from the land as if hearing these stories for the first time. It's an incredible thing to witness. There is nothing that inspires me more to encourage Geoff in his passion of bringing people to this land, and/or bringing the land to the people, than hearing the testimonies of those forever changed by being here. Thankful for each opportunity we have to learn and teach here.

April 2018CAN WE TALK?
Does this question sound familiar: "Can we talk?"
Talk show host Joan Rivers opened her appearances with this question … and pontificated on life. Well, that is what we're going to do …. "talk" about the life of trash in the City of Lakeway.
Since January and, actually, the last three months of 2017, there has been a huge increase in volume of calls, emails and visitors at the window each day. Business is good! Of late, we've had residents say they didn't know: about the 8 bag limit; about the bulky item limit of two and calling ahead, and the multiple ways to pay their bill.
So, here's a recap of things residents should know to enhance their service.
1. Any items not placed in the carts, require a call to our office no later than the day before your service day by 2:00 pm … be it carts, boxes, furniture… Our contract with Waste Connections Inc. allows:
a. Weekly: 8 bags, boxes or bundles; bundles must be tied and 3'x 3' x 3' size2. Limits to what will be taken by Waste Connections

b. This service available for as many weeks as resident needs
a. Cash, Check or Money OrderHopefully, this will help your understanding of the program and, remember, when in doubt, please give us a call …. 512-314-7514.
b. Credit/Debit Card: MasterCard, Visa or American Express
c. Bank draft
d. Credit/debit cards and bank draft accounts held at our office can be authorized by resident as an auto-pay
e. Online through Lakeway Municipal Payments, or your own bank
July 2017As we mentioned in our April, 2017 edition of "Let's Talk Trash" bill insert, we signed a new contract with Progressive, dba Waste Connections, effective April 1, 2017. We've listed below the changes that resulted and which affect residents, both financially and operationally, effective with the July, 2017 quarter….though there may be a reminder or two not associated with the change.
Quarterly Bills:
Homes with:
- One trash cart and one recycle cart: $63.00
- An additional trash or recycle cart ... $7/month added: $84.00
Progressive Customer Service: 512-282-3508
Carts not out at curb: If a resident's carts are not at curbside when the street is being serviced, the resident must call Progressive directly to arrange and pay for a special " return" pickup. Carts are to be at curb no later than 8 a.m. on the service day.
Bulky Items: Bulky items are limited to two (2) items, each weighing no more than 100 pounds. If the items weigh more than 100 pounds, OR if the resident wants a larger quantity of items picked up at one time, the resident shall be responsible for calling Progressive to arrange and pay for this additional service.
Moving Boxes: Each week, Progressive will take flattened boxes that are 3' x 3' x 2' (approximately 20) and 8 boxes, filled with either the butcher/wrapping paper used for fragile items or additional flattened boxes. If a resident wishes to have an inordinate amount of boxes collected at one time, the resident may call Progressive directly to negotiate a price to be paid directly to them.
Requests for Bulky Items and Moving Boxes must be made by telephone or email, to the Solid Waste office by noon, the day before the resident's service day. This deadline is prompted by Progressive's need for scheduling
Moving within Lakeway: If you move within the City of Lakeway and pay through your bank's online bill payment process, please note the new account number on your checks. At the peak of the billing season, we often receive 200–300 checks a day in the mail. Though the payment will be credited to your former account, it will save us having to do a "search and adjustment."
As always, call if we can be of assistance at 512-314-7514.

- If payment is not received by end of business day on the 15th, accounts will be closed and appropriate fees affixed, as noted on the Late Notice document. (Restart fee of $30 and a $75 deposit, which is refundable after four on-time payments.)

If you will call us a day ahead, we will place you on our special service list which will notify our contractor that there are extra items out, allowing them to schedule trucks accordingly. By the way, the total of eight bags can be any combination of bundles and bags.
Cleaning out the attic or the garage? Bulky pickups will only be honored if requests are made by noon the day before your regular service day. For those Monday residents … you'll need to call in on Friday! Bulky items can include such items as washers, dryers, couches, water heaters, etc.

October 2015
We will continue to highlight certain aspects of the solid waste services provided by the City. We are including information on the billing process in this bulletin.
- Billing: Our office bills quarterly, three months in advance. Billing months are: January, April, July and October.
- Payment Due Dates: Payments are due the 20th day of the billing month. There is a ten day "grace period" until the 30th, after which a late notice is sent and a $10 late fee is applied to the account. Another 20 days is allotted for payment before service is deactivated.
- Forms of Payment: We accept cash, check or money order, bank drafts, and credit cards: Visa, MasterCard and American Express.
- Note your account number on your checks.
- Our check payments are processed through a check scanner and it is helpful if the checks and/or stubs are not folded and stapled.
- If you pay through your bank's online payment system and you've moved from one residence in Lakeway to another, please place the new account number on the check payment information.
- If you are an E-billing account and you have changed your email address, please let us know. If an email address is obvious (like your name) when we receive "rejection" information, we are able to call you to obtain the new e-mail address.
- E-waste: This category includes televisions, stereos, VCRs, computers, monitors, phones, circuit boards, copiers and more products nearing the end of their "useful life". These items are NOT included in our trash/recycling program. You may contact TX Computer and Electronic Recycling at 512 337-3671 for disposal options.
- Holidays: Thanksgiving, Christmas Day and New Year's Day are the only holidays that are NOT serviced by Progressive Waste Solutions (PWS). If your regular service day falls on one of these, service will be provided the following day. Any other federal holidays will not affect trash and recycling service.
- Christmas trees: Progressive Waste Solutions has advised they will continue to take Christmas trees that are placed at the curb. If you would like your tree recycled, you may take the tree to Public Works on Serene Hills Drive. Watch the City Website for any updated information.
July 2015
- Office Hours: The Solid Waste Office is open Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.; the office is open during the lunch hour. Our phone number is 512 314-7514.
- Holidays: Thanksgiving, Christmas Day and New Year's Day are the only holidays that are not serviced by Progressive Waste Solutions (PWS). If your regular service day falls on one of these, service will be provided the following day. Any other federal holidays will not affect trash and recycling service.
- Trash & recycle carts on your service day: City Code of Ordinances Sec. 24.02.251 states solid waste containers should be concealed and inaccessible to animals and must not be visible from a public street or adjoining properties. Containers should be placed street-side only on the day of collection and returned the same day. Code Enforcement officers may tag residents for this violation. And, correct placement of carts should be facing the street, with the wheels against the curb.
- Bulky Items: (stoves, water tanks, washing machines, furniture, etc.) If you would like to take advantage of the weekly bulky pickup, please be sure to call the office no later than noon on the day before your regularly-scheduled day. Our office is closed on the weekends, so those residents who have a Monday service day will need to call on the preceding Friday. We are required to place a service order with PWS in order for their driver to service the request.
- Payments: A $2.75 fee is added for payments on the web site. If you leave your credit/debit card on file with our office, there is no fee. Keeping your card information updated and on file ensures your payment will never be late! If you prefer to have a bank draft on file, we can accommodate that process as well. For those residents using their bank's online payment feature, keep in mind that we receive a check from your bank and it can take up to a week to arrive at our office. Please allow enough lead time so that your payment is not late.
- Deposits: If you have a deposit on file, the $75 is returned to your account after four timely payments (approximately one year). Your next statement will show a credit resulting from this process.
- Replacement/delivery of carts: If either your trash or recycling cart is missing, we can schedule a replacement cart for delivery the next day. If a cart is damaged, it will be replaced on your next service day. Please leave your cart out on that day and, normally, the truck and trailer will swap out the carts later in the afternoon.
- Christmas trees: Progressive Waste Solutions has advised that when the trees are picked up by the regular trucks, they are not recycled. We will be meeting with them later this year to learn what we can do to have the trees recycled. We will provide more information as Christmas draws near.

Load Unbalance
On a three-phase wye system where the dominant loads are single phase, the neutral carries the unbalanced amount of current. Even though the loads may have been balanced at one time, normal changes in the system may cause a large unbalance, leading to a large neutral current.
Many times, when sizing and distributing loads within a panel, only the full load current is considered, not how often that load is on or off. At any given time there may be a significant unbalance due to loads being on or off.
Whether because of load shifts and changes, or the diversity of loads being on or off, neutral current from unbalance can be high, but is seldom excessive. Problems happen when the neutral wire has been undersized and high currents occur -- possibly leading to a burnt neutral. Quite often this is aided by illegal wiring practices.
High neutral currents from unbalance are fairly easy to resolve. Loads need to be powered from appropriate phases to ensure balancing, so relocate or rewire particular loads to bring balance about.
If diversity is the problem, then use a power flow monitor such as the BMI PowerProfiler to determine the current swings of loads and when the shifts occur. Then rewire or relocate to create a better balance.
In both cases, keep the neutral conductor at lease the same size as the phase conductors. For those who really want to think ahead, make the neutral one size larger. This will help with harmonics concerns.

Chris Brown and Rihanna went public with their rekindled romance on Saturday night (20Oct12) when the Umbrella hitmaker agreed to be the singer's date to the Beverly Hills launch party of his new website.
The couple hardly left each other's side at the Playhouse nightclub, where Brown and his Team Breezy handlers celebrated the fansite Qubeey.
Rihanna and Chris Brown, who split in 2009 after a row over another girl, were caught on video getting cozy in a VIP booth at the party.
The couple reteamed in the studio late last year (11) and it was clear they still had feelings for each other.
Chris Brown recently split from model girlfriend Karrueche Tran so he could reportedly date his ex.

Stride Strong has a team of professional physical therapists that make their patients feel better and stronger with the help of specific exercises. Major causes of joint, muscle and other pains in the body are usually due to damaged muscles or weakened muscles that can be repaired with the help of specific body movements. Those who are finding it difficult to run or even walk in some severe cases can resume their routine after getting treated by a physical therapist. Your physical therapist will first try and locate the root of the problem i.e. the muscles or joint that is causing the trouble followed by a drafting a set of movements and helping exercises to direct your body towards self-healing. All therapists strongly believe that body can heal itself completely under the right conditions. Note here that not all exercises are the same and your physical therapist is certified to figure out what exercise you need specifically for your condition. There might be some basic exercises that could be same for a lot of patients but there are fundamental difference between physical exercises for different issues. You may read more about these differences at stridestrong.com. You will find a lot of information on the services the company provides as well as important information on healing through physical therapy.
Sportsmen have their own personal physical therapists that they tend to take with them on their sports tours because these therapists help them achieve muscle strength thus increasing their performance level. There is a reason all sportsmen refer to physical therapy in case of a serious injury and the reason is that they are aware of the fact that proper healing is possible by the body itself with the help of a few important exercises. Medications can help with the pain but they will not completely heal or strengthen the damaged or weakened muscles.

Business Formation FAQ
- What is the total fee to have you form/register my business entity?
- What are the advantages and disadvantages of forming a corporation or LLC in Delaware?
- What is a benefit corporation and how's it different than a normal corporation?
- What are my annual fees going to be?
- Do you offer total corporation service to companies?
- How long does the incorporation process take?
Business filing times vary by state. See our LLC pages for state specific information. In general, though, If we do your filing for you, we usually send your documents to the state within one business day after you sign up. Foreign registrations can take longer since we usually have to request a certificate of good standing from your home state. Many states now offer online filings that are fast or even immediate. Other states, like New Mexico, take several months to process unless you pay their expedite fee.
- I want to sign up, but I don't know my company name yet. What should I put in that field?
- My corporation or LLC's name is not available. Now what?
Don't panic. You can still register your company with the state. The state will require you to adopt an assumed name, fictitious name, or dba. This just means that you will operate under a different name in that state. Your legal name in your domestic (home) state stays the same.Some states require you to fill out an additional form (and pay an additional fee). Other states allow you to list your legal name and the assumed name right on the application for authority.
- I just signed up for the filing service! Now what?
Thanks for signing up for our corporate filing service! If you requested a phone call, we will attempt to call you. If not, we will begin working on your filing. Check your email, because if there is any kind of issue, your filer may send you an email, and the faster you respond, the faster you get filed.There is a timeline for the filing in your online account. Many of our clients freak out a little when they see it. Remember that this is a timeline for your total incorporation experience, from sign up to document retrieval. It includes state processing and mail time. It is a projection based on our experience filing with each state; it can certainly vary.
- How can I get around listing my members/managers when I form or register my LLC?
Some states don't require member or manager information. Most states do. Our website is packed with information about each state's requirements and we can answer your questions about a particular state. See our asset protection section for more information.
- What state should I form my company in?
There are many reasons why people would want to form a company in a tax friendly state. New Mexico and Wyoming LLCs are great for holding companies and asset protection. But as a general rule, you will need to register your company in the state where you will do business. So forming a Wyoming LLC that is going to do business in California is probably not going to help you too much. If you are considering a complicated tax scheme, or you want to set up multiple companies to protect your assets, we suggest talking to an attorney or a CPA. There are usually too many factors for us to tell you what state you should file in. It may be worth it to fork over some attorney's fees if you are really interested in saving money long term.
If you are looking for more information about setting up an company with more privacy, read our page on setting up a state corporate income tax guide.
- Do you include a business name search?
In order to start a filing, you have to do a business name search. If we are doing a filing for you, there is obviously a business name search done. Many websites market this as a free add-on, but you can't really do your job of filing a business document without doing a business name search.
- I want to start a marijuana business in Washington State. Now what?
Non U.S. Resident Incorporation
- How do I form a company in the United States?
- How do I register a Canadian company in the United States?
- I'm from out of country and I'd like the originals
Almost all the states provide us with copies of what they filed to create your business. So there's not much point of us printing out a copy and mailing it to you across the world. You always have the documents in your online account. You can print those out and use those if you would like.If there's something that needs to be original, we will try to get it to your out of the U.S. address. A lot of times addresses don't come through very well, so please fill out a contact form if you're worried about getting an original document and we will deal with your original document on a per case basis and make sure you get your original documents. Also, please log into your account and make sure your address looks ok there. In the US, we often base addresses off of: street name, city, state, country, and zip. Please try to fill in these blanks the best you can for how your country organizes this information.

- Non profits: Information and templates to help guide you along the way.

Production for season three of Supergirl is well underway and That Hashtag Show has casting details that paint a picture on what the Girl of Steel faces in the upcoming season.
Under new leadership in showrunners Jessica Queller and Robert Rovener, Kara Danvers looks like she'll trade in going toe-to-toe with Cadmus and her boyfriend's evil alien parents and rather, face off against a conglomerate looking to wreak havoc in National City.
Business tycoon Morgan Edge was previously announced as the season's main antagonist, but now we have exclusive details on some of Edge's cronies and co-antagonists for the show. Edge — who is portrayed by Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. alum Adrian Pasdar — will be enlisting the help of none other long-time Superman villain Bloodsport.
While Bloodsport is a mantle taken up by three different people in DC Comics lore, the version on Supergirl will be that of Robert DuBois. As the casting reads, DuBois is an "ex-military man who has infiltrated his former base and stolen a variety of articles that he uses to cloak an underwater nuclear device."
And it most certainly wouldn't be a Supergirl show without some evil metahumans to take down, right?
Enter Psi and Reign.
Psi was created by Paul Kupperberg and Carmine Infantino and first appeared in Daring New Adventures of Supergirl #1 (1982). Needless to say, she's been around from the get go. The character is known for her psychic abilities that allow her to bring her victim's darkest fears to life.
While there isn't a character in the DC Comics mythos with the name of Samantha March, there is a Kryptonian that goes by the name of Reign. This version of Reign is a Worldkiller, a biological weapon created by the Kryptonian Science Council.
In the comics, the Kryptonian Science Council eventually outlawed the Worldkillers and ordered their destruction. However in Supergirl, Reign could most certainly be the character that put into a space pod and shipped off Krypton before the planet's demise in last season's finale.
Thanks to the casting call for March's daughter Ruby, it appears that Reign will be portrayed by Odette Annable of House fame.
The full casting information is below.
MORGAN EDGE – Male, 40s, Open Ethnicity. As corrupt as he is intimidating, he intends to clear the area one way or another, and he has enlisted the services of a madman to blow up the area during a special ceremony in Supergirl's honor. This savvy and formidable titan of industry is pushing through a huge new redevelopment plan for the city's waterfront – and he doesn't care if he has to uproot the entire indigenous immigrant population to implement his money-grubbing scheme. …RECURRING GUEST STAR
ROBERT DUBOIS/BLOODSPORT – Male, 30-40s…Looking for memorable, and distinctive performers. This evil and threatening Merc is an ex-military man who has infiltrated his former base and stolen a variety of articles that he uses to cloak an underwater nuclear device. As we later learn, he is in the employ of Morgan Edge, and he has been hired to blow up the waterfront with an underwater nuke…PRINCIPAL
GAIL MARSH – Female, Late 20s, early 30s, Open Ethnicity. The deadly and seductive PSI (aka Gail Marsh), a DC Comics foe of Supergirl, possesses psychic abilities which allow her to bring out her victim's darkest fears. While she is a physical threat, her real power comes in bringing the Girl of Steel to her knees without throwing a punch. LEAD GUEST STAR
SAMANTHA MARCH/REIGN – Female, late 20s to early 30s. Diverse. Samantha is a professional, young single mom (Trying to balance work and life), who begins to struggle to hold onto her humanity when an alter-ego, Reign — ruthless, righteous, superhuman — begins to take over her personality. Most important in Sam's life is her young daughter, Ruby, who Sam would sacrifice everything to protect. ONE SEASON – FRACTIONAL SERIES REGULAR.
RUBY MARCH – Female, Caucasian or Latina, 11 to 14. Smart, sensitive, funny, but a bit of an outsider with her peers. An independent think who doesn't like to follow the crowd. She's fiercely loyal to her single mother, Sam (Odette Annable) and the two make a great team, looking out for each other and enjoying each other's camaraderie. But Ruby's not shy about speaking up for herself – even to her mother – when she feels she's in the right. MAJOR RECURRING GUEST STAR THIS SEASON WITH A SERIES REGULAR OPTION FOR NEXT SEASON.

SOURCE: Ben Franklin Technology Partners of Northeastern Pennsylvania
December 18, 2013 11:25 ET
BETHLEHEM, PA--(Marketwired - Dec 18, 2013) - The Ben Franklin Technology Partners of Northeastern Pennsylvania (BFTP/NEP) board approved the investment of $342,378 in regional companies. BFTP/NEP is an award-winning, state-funded economic development organization that links early-stage technology firms and established manufacturers with experts, universities, funding, and other resources to help them prosper through innovation. BFTP is an initiative of the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development and is funded by the Ben Franklin Technology Development Authority.
Since beginning operation, BFTP/NEP has helped to create 15,820 new jobs and retain 21,645 existing jobs, to start 442 new companies, and to develop 1,189 new products and processes. Ben Franklin has returned $3.60 to Pennsylvania for every $1.00 invested in the program.
BFTP/NEP will invest in early-stage technology firms through loans:
Bison Analytics, LLC, Lewisburg - $100,000

We went for our third visit to the hospital on Saturday. Today, my goal is to sit up on a chair so that I can get closer to grandpas and grandmas.
My bum is a little too big for this chair, I think I prefer lying down for my treats. Yummy!
More! More...please!!!
This Grandpa kept his arms crossed for a long time and refused to talk. We met him on our last visit and he was very chatty, not sure why he is in a bad mood today.
With some help from Harley's mom and Xiao Lu's mom, he finally warmed up to me.
Here is sweet Nana with a lovely hairband! What a doll!
Next week will be our final internship session, I am getting really excited!

BP workshops aim to help female undergraduates fulfil their potential
BP has hosted a series of events aimed at helping female engineering students gain the practical skills and the confidence needed to pursue the career of their choice.
Entitled Be Inspired, a series of three events took place across the UK developed to help attendees begin considering their transition from the world of education into the workplace.
"This is a vital and often daunting stage in a graduates' career," says Suzy Style, BP's head of graduate resourcing. "We believe this is a great way for students to get insights into what potential employers are looking for and to get some insider tips into how to present themselves."
Alongside presentations from BP professionals, the days included a networking session, a Q&A with a panel of BP employees and two workshops.
The first, called Building Your Personal Brand, covered points such as online presence, differentiation and confidence, helping the young women to start thinking about how they wish to be perceived.
"One area that we considered is social media, which plays a pivotal role in many students' lives, but can be both a risk and an opportunity for their employability," Style says. "It is vital that students are aware of how to use social media to the benefit of their career, while protecting themselves from some of the potential pitfalls of today's digitally connected world. Being aware of your online 'brand' and knowing how to best use channels, such as LinkedIn or Twitter, to benefit rather than disrupt your career is vitally important.
"The event provided attendees with a chance to take a closer look at their personal brand," she continues. "They got expert advice on how to project themselves; now and throughout their professional life, whether that is on social media, at a networking event or during a job interview. There was also a professional photographer at each event, taking headshot photos of each of the students for them to use on their LinkedIn profile."
The second workshop was entitled Networking 101 and looked at the importance of networking, communicating with confidence and successful networking strategies.
During the Q&A portion of the event the students heard first-hand advice on developing a career at an organisation like BP and specific insights into what it's like to work at the company.
"People were also interested in why the panel had chosen to work in the energy sector and insights into how they had found entering the workforce as graduates," Style notes. "The programme of speakers and workshops has been specifically designed to help the attendees to begin uncovering some of their personal strengths, while gaining practical skills that will help them continue finding their confidence as they pursue their career."
Feedback from the student attendees was positive, with many leaving inspired and motivated and several now interested in joining the organisation upon graduation.
"I think events like this are important as there are a lot of females especially university students who are afraid to be confident or speak up but have the necessary strengths and skills to make a difference in this industry," says Grace Adesanya, an Aston University chemical engineering student.
"It was very empowering speaking and interacting with BP female employees in management roles who are able to do what they love without being restricted by their gender."
"I never really thought of how my daily life skills and strengths can help with my career and the workshops helped me in that aspect. I've learnt to be more myself and not the image people want me to be," adds Joelle Tham, currently studying mechanical engineering at Cardiff University.
"At BP we are committed to developing a diverse workforce and we therefore believe that events such as these are essential for helping female students to begin addressing some potential career constraints so that they are better placed to achieve their full potential," Style says.
"Recruiting top talent doesn't start upon graduation, it begins much earlier and events such as the Be Inspired series are a great way to begin engaging with female engineers."

Every car has its own story. The story of 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia starts in the early 1960s. Back than Alfa Romeo started, for the first time in history of mainstream car production, a project which would involve a powerful engine in a lightweight chassis. Everything started with the series 105.
Many years later there was a plan to reinvent "Giulia". It looked like a "cold case" for this new version, until the new story unveiled itself in the January issue of the "Car magazine", by no one else then the Alfa Romeo's CEO Harald Wester.
The catch is that the project has been put on ice since 2011. Nobody knew why, nobody asked. It came out that the project has been sent back to a drawing board and not only for cosmetic changes but to develop the all new rear wheel drive in cooperation with Maserati.
2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia Exterior and Interior
There isn't much to say about the 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia exterior, because they still keep it a secret. From a couple of spy photos we could only see that it is going to be a bit shorter and narrower than its bigger relatives.
What is obvious about the 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia interior, from that first (sometimes wrong) impression is that wide, beautifully carved central console, with the navigation screen popping out from the top of the dashboard.
I can only imagine the final version of a car and that fine leather and wood over this console. There are certainly going to be a lot of modifications in the design until that final release.
Engine of 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia
There are going to be a couple of versions of 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia engine. First version is certainly a weakest one, 1.75 liter turbocharged inline 4 with 200 HP.
Second version will have a 2.0 liter turbocharged engine with 250 HP and 260 lb-ft of torque.
Both of them will be available in 8 or 9 speed automatic transmission and RWD.
Third version is going to be a GTA model, similar engine to Maserati Ghibli, but built by Ferrari.
It is going to be a twin turbocharged 3.0 liter V6 engine with 500 HP and up to 500 lb-ft of torque. As the transmission is considered, it is going to have a 9 speed automatic gearbox with RWD.
Suspension design is going to have an active-roll control, with automatic dumper and springs adjustment in corners and over extreme surfaces. Additional active damping system could allow the driver to adjust the ride and handling even further.
With standard equipment you are going to get even the switchable DNA program, taken from MiTo and Giulietta, which can change the steering weight and accelerator response.
The company is planning to release a turbo diesel version later on, only for European markets.
With having all this information presented to us, the first and only thing to notice is that, this is going to be the most powerful Alfa Romeo ever manufactured!
After the 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia release in 2015, we expect the announcement of the new Giulietta release in 2018. Which is too, going to switch to RWD, and AWD for later bigger models.
2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia Release Date and Price
2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia release date and price are not yet certain. The rumor says that it is going to be released somewhere in the fourth quarter of 2015. Some of the British dealers are already speculating about the price. They are all almost sure that it is not going to go above 45, 000 dollars.

Actual Results: No access to the network. Eth0 not found.
Expected Results: Eth0 should have been found, and allowed access to the network.
Additional info:
The problem does not exist in kernel-2.6.12-1.1456_FC4
Please attach the output of running sysreport on the box in question (while
booted under the newer kernel)...thanks!
What exactly to you want attached? 'sysreport' generates a .tar.bz2 file.
Is that what you want attached?
Yes, please!
How, exactly, do I "attach" the file? Or, do I e-mail it to you directly?
Click the link above, or search for "Create a New Attachment" below... :-)
Okay... First things first... I inadvertently updated to version
kernel-2.6.14-1.1644_FC4, but the behaviour is exactly the same. So I'm
attaching the results of the sysreport from this new kernel.
Created attachment 121616 [details]
Result of sysreport command
This is the result of running sysreport on the kernel-2.6.14-1.1644_FC4 kernel.
Although this is not the same kernel for which I reported this bug, the
behavior and error messages are exactly the same.
Remove this line from your /etc/modprobe.conf file:
options 3c59x irq=5
Then, reboot with the newer kernel. I think it will load fine. Please post
the results here...thanks!
Nope, still no network. I removed the line as you suggested. I will re-run
sysreport and attach it.
Created attachment 121640 [details]
result of new sysreport command
I should also mention the 2.6.12-1.1456_FC4 kernel still works fine, without the
'options 3c59x irq=5' line.
Can you define "no network"? The sysreport from comment 10 indicates that the
module loaded, and the output of ifconfig shows that the device is up with an
IP address assigned. Are you sure there are no problems with your network
If there is a problem with the network configuration then the 2.6.12-1.1456_FC4
kernel handels it gracefully. If I boot using the 2.6.12-1.1456_FC4 kernel,
everthing works fine.
During boot, everthing looks good until it tries to connect to the Timer Server.
(Which is the first indication that the network isn't running.)
Looking at the Network configuration gui, the eth0 device is listed as
"inactive". But when I try to activate it, it just stays inactive.
If there are further reports you'd like to me to run I'm happy to do it. But,
it takes me about 1/2 an hour to get to the machines location.
Test kernels are available here:
They include the 3c59x driver from 2.6.12-1.1456_FC4 (renamed to 3c59x_old).
You will need to modify /etc/modprobe.conf to change all references to "3c59x"
to refer to "3c59x_old" instead.
Please give that a try and post the results...thanks!
BTW, you may also want to try the fedora-netdev kernels:
You will have to undor the 3c59x->3c59x_old changes in /etc/modprobe.conf if you
try these kernels after trying the kernels in comment 15...
I just installed the latest kernel (kernel-2.6.14-1.1653_FC4) and all my network
problems have gone away.
I don't know what you did, but it's working again!
Thank you for all your hard work!!!
This defect was correct as of kernel: kernel-2.6.14-1.1653_FC4
It has returned with kernel: kernel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4
Did you ever try the fedora-netdev kernels (comment 16)? There are some big
differences between the driver there and the one in the current FC4 kernels...
Still no go... :-(
First I tried suggestion #15 (that didn't work).
So, I put everything back they way it was (kernel-2.6.14-1.1653_FC4).
Next, I tried suggestion #16 (that didn't work either).
Any other suggestions before I re-format and start over?
Hi there,
Just to be 100% clear, when you say "no network", you mean you can't ping
out of the box, or anything like that? It's not just that the time service
doesn't work?
If I read the above comments correctly, you are saying that
kernel-2.6.14-1.1653_FC4 worked properly, but kernel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4 does not?
If that is the case, it is very strange; very little (especially having to do
with networking, and the 3c59x driver) changed between those two kernels.
However, if that is indeed the case, one of the things that did change has to do
with ACPI. Could you try booting kernel-2.6.14-1656_FC4 with adding pci=noacpi
to the kernel command line, and see if that makes a difference?
Still not working... But I got a new error messgae
Here's what I did:
I re-formatted my hard drive and re-installed from my FC4 install disks.
This gave me kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 which works fine.
After installing from scratch and testing my network connection, I typed "yum
This took about two hours but eventually gave me kernel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4.
No network.
But this time as the machine boots, right after starting eth0, I get the message:
"Disabling IRQ #5"
When I check the network status from the network configuration screen, the
screen "claims" that eth0 is active.
As soon as I reboot using kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4, the network comes back.
Does this help?
I should mention I tried suggestion 21 again (add pci=noacpi) and it still
didn't work.
Right now I'm running kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.
I have the machine with me at work, so I can try anything you need me to do with
a delay.
I mean "without" a delay.
OK. Let's try this. Boot up with the 2.6.14-1.1656_FC4. Unload the 3c59x
driver. Load the 3c59x driver with:
# modprobe 3c59x debug=6
Then, try and bring up the interface. Please attach a full copy of dmesg, so I
can get a little better look at what is going on.
How do I unload the driver?
Make sure the interface is stopped:
# ifdown eth0
Unload the driver:
# rmmod 3c59x
Load the driver:
# modprobe 3c59x debug=6
Then attach the full output of dmesg.
Created attachment 123488 [details]
Output after running dmesg
Here is the output from dmesg
OK. Looks like you are having IRQ routing issues. A couple of questions:
1. What is the motherboard, and what is the BIOS version?
2. Are you doing anything funky in the BIOS; i.e. forcing particular interrupts?
Since the BIOS version is so old, ACPI is not being used to route the IRQ's, and
it seems like it is running into problems. If it is available, you might want
to update your BIOS; but if you don't want to do that, or are uncomfortable
doing that, I do have a few suggestions.
1. Remove the pci=noacpi option from the kernel command line; it is already
being disabled because of it's age anyway.
2. Try adding "acpi=force" to the kernel command-line. I don't necessarily
expect this to work, but it is work a shot.
3. If 2 doesn't work, remove "acpi=force" from the kernel command-line, and add
"pci=usepirqmask". This is supposed to work around certain bugs in buggy
BIOS's, which it seems you might have.
4. If 3 doesn't work, leave the "pci=usepirqmask", but also add "irqpoll" to
the kernel command line.
Please test 2, 3, and 4, and attach dmesg outputs.
1) I can't get a clear look at the motherboard. Is there a command to
determine what it is?
2) No, I'm not doing anything in BIOS.
So, I've only tried the first suggestion "acpi=force".
During boot I see this message:
FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq
No such device
I didn't try the other two suggestions.
Is this considered a permanent fix?
Thanks so much!
The error you listed above about acpi_cpufreq is just a problem with the
cpuspeed daemon; if you don't want to see it anymore, just run "chkconfig
cpuspeed off".
Assuming that your network continues running, and everything else on the machine
is OK, that will probably be the fix for you. The only other option is to
possibly upgrade the BIOS (like I mentioned above), but given that this is
working for you I wouldn't really recommend it.
The next time I run "yum update" and get a new kernel, will I have to manually
add the "acpi=force"?
Or will the update some-how figure it out for me?
As far as I know, when a kernel update happens, it takes the kernel command line
from the previous kernel that is in GRUB and copies it; so the next kernel
upgrade should automatically get the "acpi=force". I won't guarantee it, but I
am pretty sure you won't need to do it again.
Well, before you close this, I just wanted to thank you for all of your patience
and support!
what we can do, is whitelist your system so that it uses acpi by default, so
that the addition isn't necessary. Can you attach the output of 'dmidecode'
(run it as root) please ?
This is a mass-update to all currently open kernel bugs.
A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4)
based upon a new upstream kernel release.
Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches
go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that
may address this problem.

Thank you.
So, here's the latest...
1) I updated to the new 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4 kernel.
2) Rebooted
3) No network...
4) Drove 1/2 hour across town to the machines location.
5) Tried all three variations from #29 (above)
6) Still no network.
What I see happen during boot, right after the line "Starting eth0", is a
message "Disabling IRQ 5".
If I look at the network configureation screen, it "claims" that eth0 is active.
But, I can't get in or out.
Thank you Christopher Lalancette!
The one suggestion (that I was most afraid to try) was to update the bios.
So, having tried everything else you suggested, I broke down and visited the HP
web site, and found the latest and greatest BIOS.
After upgrading the bios, all the problems went away. I have been able to
remove all of the extra kernel options that you suggested in #29 above.
This problem is now solved!
Thank you so much Chris!!!!
