Words from our Amazing ClientsNothing makes us happier than when our clients truly enjoy their experiences! See what a few of them had to say below.
Blair's passion for fitness and health is really what impresses me the most. Her enthusiasm is contagious. She has genuine care for her clients which is why they come back every week to improve themselves. She has built her own little village and I plan to continue to be part of that village.Jocelyn
My favorite class is Kettlebell Bootcamp. It has significantly helped me become stronger and more flexible. It's an awesome feeling when you can increase your kettlebell weight and Blair does an excellent job of expressing support and encouragement.
Behind almost all of my major fitness accomplishments is Blair. She has pushed me to do things that I never thought I would mentally or physically be able to do. She helps set fitness goals that you may not have even thought about doing yourself, but in the end notice that those achievements are some of your most proud moments! I personally can attribute being a yoga instructor and completing sprint and full triathlons to Blair. I think that that is what is behind a really great trainer, friend, and inspirational leader. Her motivation will get you to reach new levels in your fitness journey if you let her. I have no doubt that Rock Solid will provide this kind of health and fitness "push" for many more friends and clients to come.Taylor
On top of the workouts, Blair offers fantastic nutritional coaching to help you understand what your body needs in all ways. In one of the 6-week nutrition programs offered, I was able to see visible differences in many places in my body. Blair really does a great job of supporting you and helping you figure out what works best for you.
Blair is awesome; she is super patient, especially with those of us who are healthily challenged and she always mixes up the workouts so you never get bored. I love that she keeps classes small so she can target each of us and knows us all by name. If you are looking for a great workout and not the usual large facility where you are on your own, this is the place for you!Velia
"You challenged me to do my best, while always keeping me positive and motivated. You showed me how to eat cleanly and I have more energy for it. Thank you for all of your support, I know you will continue to be a great trainer."Emily
When I started this plan and plugged my numbers into the formula Blair gave me I did not think they could be right. The calorie intake was so much higher than I was used to from other plans I doubted that this could work. I decided to give it a try and I'm glad I did. After about the 2nd week I noticed an increase in energy level and by week 4 my body began to change both in measurement and weight.
All of my life I have loved sugar. Even when I am trying to eat "good" I tend to eat a lot of fruit. With this plan I have cut back my normal sugar intake quite a lot but it is not bothering me. Over the years it has been put in my head to avoid nuts, avocado, nut butters, larger portions of meat\fish. To meet my numbers on this plan I get to eat all of those things I used to avoid because of their fat, protein and calories. I don't even get time to think about wanting the sugar. I get to snack on things I like so I don't want to grab bad things plus these snacks make me feel full. Let's face it, who doesn't like to snack. Now I feel like my snacks have purpose and aren't just something bad I'm sneaking. I hope this continues. I don't ever remember feeling full when I was watching what I ate before. I know I need to continue to work and make changes to this new eating lifestyle but I feel that this is manageable, something I can stick to. Good by starvation!Janice Riggs
"I have been training with Blair for almost a year now and boy has she trained me! We started out with fitness. She schooled me in the ways of strength training (ie kettle bells, weights, trx), yoga (some days we do only yoga if I need it), and cardio ( who's bored of just running on the tread mill? I am!). She has given me so many options in my workout routine which I love because I get bored and unmotivated.
Naturally, after all the training we got into nutrition. I felt like I was getting nice and strong, but I would still see my weight fluctuate. So we went grocery shopping! She showed me the likely culprits as to why I would get so bloated some days and couldn't find consistency. She taught me the truth about carbs, dairy, and sugar also when and how to eat them. I have great recipes she hooked me up with that I cook every week. I even have branched out with the tools she gave to make different healthy meals for my Fiancee and I. We feel amazing!
In short, Blair has helped guide a girl who just blindly goes to the gym and eats moderately healthy, into a knowledgeable fitness lover who can cook deliciously nutritious meals!"Crystal Thomas
"I just wanted to say thank you for everything over the past few months. In the short term, I looked great on my wedding day (and in only 6 weeks!) – and in the long term you have really helped me learn to love and accept my body. This work on myself and mindset has been priceless! "Larissa

Rock Solid has been a life changer. It has totally helped to transform my attitude toward fitness and health and I'm so thankful. This studio is a place that I look forward to coming to daily. The many class times always seem to fit with my schedule and there is a great variety of class offerings. The community that Blair has created here is so friendly and supportive.
"I have been training with Blair for a year now. In that year I've lost 43 pounds. Yeah, that's great, but it's so much more than that. When Blair met me I was 225, 37 years old, and resigned to being the "fat girl" for the rest of my life. Why wouldn't I be? Since I was 16, I had done weight watchers (twice), Richard Simmons diet, nutri-system, Seattle Sutton, and general healthy eating. I had been a member of the local no-name gym, Bally's, Flirty Girl Fitness, and owned all the Tae Bo tapes. I even did accupuncture to no avail. I didn't know what I was doing wrong. I THOUGHT I was living a healthy lifestyle!
I started training with Blair and expected I would just see her once a week. And while I do only see her once a week, she has soaked into every day of my life. She does the physical exercise with me, and that includes: not only weight loss, strength training, some yoga, helping me to get in shape for my Macchu Picchu climb, and even some swimming lessons (because at 37 I STILL never learned to swim!), but adapting my workouts to improve an injured back and chronic knee problems. She taught me how to work out on my own. Prior to this my workouts were at Flirty Girl and the hardest workout I had was salsa dancing. No wonder I wasn't losing weight.
Now I go to the gym 6 days a week (7 during the 30 day challenge that I'm about to win!) and do a variety of workouts. But then she saw that my workout wasn't the problem, my eating habits were . So we started to have really in-depth conversation about my diet. She even took me on a grocery shopping tutorial. Remember how I said I thought I was eating healthy? Well, I wasn't. I was smoking, heating up Lean Cuisines, eating 100 calorie packs, and on the weekends I would reward my good behavior by going out with friends for chocolate martinis, pizza, or burgers and fries, and three course meals! I couldn't understand why I wasn't losing the weight. Well, Blair taught me about the badness of processed foods (I really thought 100 calorie packs and weight watchers frozen meals were healthy!), she taught me when, and what things I should eat and why.
I was shocked at the changes I was making. I quit smoking, I quit eating white carbs, cut back on dairy, loaded up on fish, eggs, veggies, and beans. (although the sweet tooth is still a struggle….) I felt amazing! I still go out with friends but I've substituted the chocolate martinis for stoli vanilla and diet, and I eat half of the food and make healthier decisions and leave the appetizers and dessert for my friends. And I've joined social groups that spend their evenings going to the theatre, playing games, or doing physical activity instead of eating and drinking! And you know what? It's not THAT hard, and I don't feel like I'm missing out. And then she introduced the detox, and I tweeked my diet even more, and I dropped another 10 pounds. I feel full of energy and happiness! And for the first time in my life, I don't avoid mirrors. I see one and think "wow! I look good!" I've never thought that in my life.
The other day my family went out for the breakfast buffet at Marshall Fields. As I sat across from my mom in my new 182 pound frame, eating only scrambled eggs and fruit (passing over my usual cheesy potatos, bacon and cream cheese stuffed French toast…) my mom said "I know your trainer isn't cheap, but I think this is the best thing you've ever done for yourself, sje is the best thing that's ever happened to you. You are finally healthy and you look amazing. I'm so proud of you" Me too. Thanks Blair, I was not able to do this without you. "Jill Peters
Rock Solid is a place that I make a priority in my life because of the fulfillment I get from it. Thank you, Blair!Laura
Working out with Blair has transformed my life in so many ways. She sets up the weekly workouts to make sure you get the variation and challenges necessary to keep changing your body. The best thing about the classes is that there are early morning and late evening options, and no matter when you go, you'll get one-on-one attention from Blair. The people at the gym are great and very supportive.
Rocksolid is my favorite place for workouts. I've tried quite a few in the past but none had to offer what I found here: great trainers and yoga teachers, very supportive community, vigorous and exciting workouts coupled with great music to keep you going even through the most challenging exercises. What I like most about Rocksolid is that it offers a vast variety of health and fitness services from personal training, high intensity interval training (boot camp), TRX suspension training, kettle bell workouts, to spinning and yoga classes and nutrition and health coaching. It is one-stop place for all of your health and fitness needs and every workout or coaching session is a new, fun and exciting experience. You will feel highly supported, motivated and challenged both mentally and physically. Working out with Blair and other trainers and teachers in the studio has helped me achieve all of my health and fitness goals. Not only was I able to lose much weight, but I feel a lot stronger, well-toned, more energized, and my overall feeling of self-confidence has increased tremendously. I would highly recommend you check it out and give it a try! I promise you will love it!Lillian Savic
There aren't enough good things I can say about Rock Solid. I've been coming here consistently for the past few months and this place is better than any gym I've ever joined. What it comes down to is Blair. She is the owner and runs the majority of the classes. She keeps you motivated and most importantly, accountable for your workouts. She is such a wonderful teacher who pushes you to reach goals you didn't know you could. I'm so happy that I joined Rock Solid and joined this incredible group. Thanks for everything Blair!Lamies

I know it's been forever since I've posted and I have so much to tell but I will start with the adventure of my pedometer the past couple of days. Yesterday I purchased the cheapest one that walmart sells ~ I figured $5 wouldn't matter if I didn't like it or lost it right away.
So I put it on my waist as suggested and wore it for a while. I don't even remember how many steps it said I'd taken but it seemed off so I decide to count. It was almost doubling my steps so I then clip it to my sock and try again. Surprisingly it seemed to work pretty accurately that way ~ you'd think they would suggest this in the packaging! I don't know if it's appropriate to use the pedometer this way but for $5 I am surprised it works at all.
Here in lies my difficulties; I keep resetting it. Somewhere into several hundred steps today I decide to sit with my leg tucked under me; then I remember I am wearing the silly device! Sure enough I'd reset it so I decide to sit like a lady again and try again.
I check it again after 7 hours or so of wearing and it was somewhere over 11,000 steps so I go back to work. After another hour or so I go about fixing the vacuum only to realize I am smashing my pedometer again and sure enough I have reset it!
ugh …. now to try to make it through tomorrow without resetting! Perhaps I will then know how many steps I've taken in a day!

System Center 2012 – Service Manager provides an integrated platform for automating and adapting your organization's IT service management best practices, such as those found in Microsoft Operations Framework (MOF) and Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL). It provides built-in processes for incident and problem resolution, change control, and asset lifecycle management. Through its configuration management database (CMDB) and process integration, Service Manager automatically connects knowledge and information from System Center Operations Manager, System Center Configuration Manager, and Active Directory® Domain Services (AD DS). Service Manager delivers integration, efficiency, and business alignment for your IT services. Before Installing our Servers i am going to go through the different roles in Service Manager 2012 Server along with the software and hardware requirements to later on give a good picture about how our lab is going to be like. Service Manager 2012 includes Six major parts:
- Service Manager management server : Contains the main software part of a Service Manager installation. You can use the Service Manager management server to manage incidents, changes, users, and tasks.
- Service Manager database : The database that contains Service Manager configuration items (CI) from the IT Enterprise; work items, such as incidents, change requests, and the configuration for the product itself. This is the Service Manager implementation of a Configuration Management Database (CMDB).
- Data warehouse management server : The computer that hosts the server piece of the data warehouse.
- Data warehouse databases : Databases that provide long-term storage of the business data that Service Manager generates. These databases are also used for reporting.
- Service Manager console : The user interface (UI) piece that is used by both the help desk analyst and the help desk administrator to perform Service Manager functions, such as incidents, changes, and tasks. This part is installed automatically when you deploy a Service Manager management server. In addition, you can manually install the Service Manager console as a stand-alone part on a computer.
- Self-Service Portal : A web-based interface into Service Manager.
Software Requirements
|Service Manager management server
|Data warehouse management server
|Service Manager or data warehouse databases
|Service Manager console
|Self-Service Portal: Web Content Server
|Self-Service Portal: SharePoint Web Parts
|One of the following versions of Microsoft SharePoint:
Software requirements for SharePoint Web Parts for the Self-Service Portal are based on Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 specifications. For more information, see Hardware and Software Requirements (SharePoint Server 2010). Note:
|Excel Services in SharePoint Server 2010
|Excel Services in SharePoint Server 2010 is required for hosting dashboards for advanced analytical reports.
|Computers accessing the Self-Service Portal
|All Self-Service Portal web console requirements are listed at Self-Service Web Console Support
|SQL Server Reporting Services
|In a deployment topology where the computer hosting SSRS is not on the same computer that hosts the data warehouse management server, you have to add Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Reporting.Code to the global assembly cache.
Service Accounts used by Service Manager parts for each part of the Service Manager Installation, different active directory Service Accounts are required . for this guide i am going to only use a single user for those services. In production environments you are advised to follow Microsoft's requirements for those Service Accounts which can be found here " Service Manager Accounts Required During Setup " Hardware Requirements
|Service Manager database
|Service Manager management server
|Service Manager console
|Data warehouse management server
|Data warehouse databases
|Self-Service Portal: Web Content Server with SharePoint Web Parts
Now that we went through the Software and Hardware requirements for the different parts of the Service Manager 2012 server we have different deployment scenarios to deploy those parts:
First deployment option requires the use of two computers. The first computer hosts the Service Manager management server and the Service Manager database. The second computer hosts the data warehouse management server and the data warehouse databases. If you do not need reporting services, you can—at an absolute minimum—install Service Manager on one computer that hosts both the Service Manager management server and the Service Manager database.
Second deployment option maximizes performance and Scalability by using four computers. Two computers host the management servers, and the remaining two computers host the databases. The computers hosting the databases are the only two computers in this scenario that require the installation of Microsoft SQL Server 2008.
For this Lab am going to use four Servers Scenario, a single SQL Server to host the Management Server and Data warehouse databases, two other servers are going to host the Management and Data warehouse Servers and the fourth server will host the Self-Service portal.
Well that is all for now as for the introduction part "Mostly Quoted from Microsoft's Website" , i only organized the key parts in my way to make a good informational intro for this guide. in the next part of this guide we will start with deploying the different roles of the Service Manager 2012 Server.

Security has been tightened at all entry points in the country following the killing of Kim Jong-nam, the estranged elder half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, on Monday.
The two countries opened embassies in each other's capital cities in 2003, and Malaysians are now allowed to travel to North Korea without a visa.
Kim Jong Nam, 45, was preparing to fly to his home in Macau from Kuala Lumpur on Monday morning when he was attacked and poisoned by two women at Terminal 2 of the global airport, authorities said.
Zahid said police acted swiftly and efficiently. Both women have been remanded in custody for seven days pending further investigations.
Police say he is not believed to have been directly involved or a suspect, despite reports identifying him as a "third suspect", but that he had provided information which had led to the arrest of Aishah.
He had said he had no political ambitions, although he was publicly critical of the North Korean regime and was quoted in Japanese media as saying he opposed dynastic succession in North Korea.
While Kim Jong Un abhors the Chinese leadership's meddling in North Korean affairs, Kim Jong Nam was once highly valued by Beijing.
Selangor state police chief Commissioner Abdul Samah Mat said no request had been received and an official at the morgue said they had no indication of who would claim the body.
He did not reveal though how South Korea knew about it. Kim then headed to a counter at the airport to ask for help and was taken to an airport clinic.
The two women arrested were identified using surveillance videos from the airport, but it was not immediately clear if they are believed to be the actual assassins.
"One aspect of this continuous process is that so-called "side branches" of the Kim family are sent into exile or killed, occasionally one followed by the other".
Indonesian diplomats met the woman arrested on Thursday and confirmed that she was an Indonesian citizen originally from Serang in Banten, a province that neighbours the Indonesian capital, Jakarta.
The suspect arrested on Wednesday had Vietnamese travel documents bearing the name Doan Thi Huong, 28.
Even more damaging, Kyunghyang Shinmun's report quoted anonymous sources to report that Kim Jong-nam had attempted to defect to South Korea, the USA, and Europe - news that could seriously weaken the Kim dynasty's stature in the eyes of North Korea's elites and commoners. He spent most of his time overseas in Macau, mainland China and Singapore.
Multiple South Korean media reports, citing unidentified sources, said Kim Jong Nam was killed at the airport by two women believed to be North Korean agents.
Kim Jong Nam was the son of Kim Jong Il, North Korea's second leader, and Sung Hye Rim, an actress who analysts say was forced to divorce her first husband to live in secret with the future leader in 1970, a year before their son was born.

Sailing in the Ionian is hugely popular, due to the light winds, iconic clear waters and beautiful bays. This is a great sailing ground for beginners or those looking to introduce inexperienced family and friends. With two weeks sailing from Lefkas you will be able to visit all the islands - from the tiny islands of Kastus and Kalamos to the bright lights of Kefalonia.
This is an ideal route for your first bareboat charter, widely regarded as the least challenging sailing areas, in the whole of the Mediterranean. A normal day will be flat calm in the morning, with the prevailing wind (a friendly NW 3-4) picking up at around 2 or 3pm. This means relaxing mornings and lazy lunch stops anchored in a bay until the wind picks up. Great for anyone looking to really relax!
The beauty of sailing in Greece is that you will often find that there are no mooring fees when staying on a town quay. If the local port authorities do come along, and ask you to pay, then you can expect no more than €10 for a 38ft yacht; note this is very rare.
Upon arrival at the base you will be met by the charter company. Once you'ce completed your check-in you will be shown to your boat and after a quick briefing it's time to relax!
Lefkas Town is a great place to spend your first night, there's plenty of bars and restaurants lining the waterfront for you to have your first greek meal of the holiday.
The island of Lefkas has some great places to explore, so from Lefkas Town why not sail down to Sivota. There's some great tradtional greek restaurants here, 'The Old Store' is one of our favourites and if you fancy a swim, drop anchor in the outer bay before mooring up for the night.
From Sivota nearby Vasiliki is a nice short hop. This town is a very popular stop for windsurfers and other watersports so make sure you have a go!
After Vasiliki, head south to the island of Kefalonia. Starting in Fiskardo, you will come across a picturesque fishing village which has a great cosmopolitan atmosphere including some fun bars and restaurants. There are some stunning coves nearby with clear blue waters just waiting for you to jump into.
If you continue down the east coast of Kefalonia you'll get to the town of Sami. This is a traditional greek town with old paved streets, a gorgeous waterfront and some fantastic old buildings which are completely unaffected by tourism.
From Sami to Poros is a nice 15 mile sail, continuing south on the Kefalonian coast. The town here is typically greek with some great walks in the nearby hills, we recommend the trip to the oldest monastery on the island which gives some stunning views of the island.
From Kefalonia continue your island hopping adventure by heading over to Ithaca Island. There are two stops here we recommend, Vathi and Frikes.
Vathi is the main harbour on the island. Not many of the old venetian buildings remain in tact due to the earthquake in 1953 however some are still standing such as the church, cathedral and museum.
After Vathi a nice short hop sail is up to Frikes in the north of Ithaca island. Frikes is a small port which has a great mixture of peace and tranquility with a lively nightlife, the perfect combination!
From Ithaca island head east to Kastos and Kalamos Islands. From Frikes to Kastos is around 15 miles and Kastos is beautifully unspoilt with lush greenery, empty beaches and two quiet harbours.
From Kastos to Kalamos is a very short hop but the scenery is worlds apart. Kalamos is a mountaineous island with great views and there's some great sunsets to be seen here.
If you want to see an island that's off the radar and full of greek charm then sail over to Meganisi, a nice 10 mile sail form Kalamos, Meganisi has lots of bays with hidden tavernas serving traditional greek food. The beaches here aren't bad either!
From Meganisi you can cross over to the mainland and head to Palairos. This ancient greek city has several ruins dating back to as far as 2000 BC which are tucked away in the moutains here. There's also lots of watersports on offer along the beaches.
Sadly it's your last day and so it's time to head back to Lefkas. If you fancy a lunch stop, Goat Bay is on the way on the mainland however it's good to remember that most charter companies like you to be back in the marina between 4-6pm on your final day. This gives you one last night to wine and dine yourselves with all the greek delicacies before heading home the following day.

Forehead and Temporal Lifting
Forehead and Temporal Lifting (Eyebrow Lifting)
Plastic surgeons apply forehead and temporal lifting surgeries in order to minimize the lines on the forehead. After the surgery, the floppy eyebrows are placed on the original region and the patient obtains a live apperance through this procedure. Moreover, the lines on the eye sides are minimized. meliyat sonrası sarkan kaşlar normal yerine getirilir ve kişiye daha canlı bir bakış kazandırılır. The surgery should be done, under the hospital conditions and control of the anaesthesia specialist, on the operating theater. It is done under general anaesthesia or sedation supported local anaesthesia. The average surgery time is 1,5-2 hours and the patient may be discharged on the same day. It could be combined with other plastic surgeries. In this case, both the surgery time and the hospitalization period take longer time.
Malnutrition, smoking, irregular life, air pollution, insufficient skin care, gravitation, excess mimic movements are the accelareting reasons which lead to the formation of forehead lines. General profil of the patients is over 40 ages and the surgery could be done easily unless there is another health problem. In the event that it is quite floppy and it is needed to remove the skin, the clasic forehead lifting procedure is applied. There remains a crown-shaped trace, by this method, from the 4-5 cm behind of the hair line, if the patient is not bald, the trace could be hidden in hair. Following the surgery, a long-term insensitivity may be experienced on hairy skin. There is no need to apply an eyebrow lifting surgery to the patients having forehead lifting surgery as well. It is not recommended to make a incision from the temporal region and lift the eyebrows and apply a partial forehead lifting. Unless there is a necessity to remove skin too much, forehead lifting surgery can be done via endoscopy. It is possible as well to make 3-4 incisions of 2 cm on hairy skin behind the hair line and get the same results. As compared to the former one, it does not cause a notable loss of sense.

Edge :
Fumito Ueda really can't talk about The Last Guardian. It's in his contract. The designer left SCE's Japan Studio back in December 2011, but returned as a freelancer to see his game to its conclusion. Still, his creative work on the project is now mostly complete – interpret that as you will – so the Ico and Shadow Of The Colossus designer is able to find time to give us a rare interview about the mechanics of emotional interaction and the shape of SOTC's map.
The ICO-franchise is the most 'unice'-one i've played so far
To be honest at this point of development on the last guardian, I can care less if he left or not. He hasn't done shit for a whole generation
Love Ueda, but he left to make mobile games. How does the most creative person in the gaming industry take that path? Now I know how people felt when Picasso started painting the weird stuff.
If you want to loose lots of money while employing a genius, Fumito Ueda is your man.

Ministries at St. Michael Catholic Church
The Altar Society cares for our church by preparation for the celebration of the liturgy. This work is done on a weekly basis, alternating Friday and Saturday. The Altar Society meets on the third Friday of each month, September through May, in the Rectory at noon for a luncheon followed by a business meeting. Membership is open to everyone. All living and deceased members are remembered in a monthly Mass.
In order to "aid the pastor in the administration of parish goods," the Code of Canon Law(1983) calls for the establishment of finance councils in each parish. Parish finance councils are consultative by nature. The council has as its proper role the gathering of needed information for informed decision making regarding the financial administration of the parish. The pastor appoints members of the finance council.
Community members visit the homebound of our parish and those who are in hospitals and nursing homes. There is always a need for more ministers. Training and support is available for anyone interested.
The Pastoral Council assists and advises the pastor in planning, implementation and evaluation of parish programs. Pastoral Councils are consultative by nature. The proper activity of the Pastoral Council is the gathering of needed information for informed decision
This group is an organization of members of the parish who are 50+ years of age. They share social and spiritual support with one another. A monthly Mass is celebrated for all members. This group meets every fourth Tuesday of the month for breakfast.
ST. VINCENT de PAUL
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul is an international Catholic lay organization that offers person-to-person service to those who are needy and suffering. They are united by a spirit of poverty, humility and sharing. The St. Michael Chapter provides a food pantry on Saturday mornings (excluding holiday weekends) and other services as needed when able.
PRE (Religious Education)
Classes are held weekly, September through May. Registration is held in August. Watch the church bulletin for details.
Lectors proclaim the readings at the liturgy. They must have the skills needed to proclaim the readings, must be confirmed, be trained and be a living witness to their faith.
The beautiful thing about being part of ministry is that we are not called to do it by ourselves.
We are not here by our own commission, nor do we speak with our own authority.
We are sent by God and He commands what we say. In and out of the church, we are always Christ's ambassadors, and we are equipped by God to be so.
Involvement in a ministry at St. Michael's means a life of service for Jesus, like Jesus, and with Jesus.
In fact, it's all about Jesus.
If you're ready to lace up your Converse and step out into the world with us, read through the various ministries listed below and then fill out the short form at the bottom of this page. Let's do this together!

seele builds full-size mock-ups to test structural glass designs, fittings, structural glazing adhesive joints and establish load-bearing and residual load-bearing capacities and provides all project services, including logistics and erection. Specially developed vacuum lifters and erection gear are available to handle large pane formats. The experienced seele erection crews work with maximum precision to ensure that large panes up to 48sqm in size are installed with millimetre accuracy.
Sometimes it's the distance to the site that presents the biggest challenge. That was 16,000km in the case of the Apple store in Sydney, where a street had to be completely closed for erection. The timetable for delivering and setting up the panes was therefore very tight and called for especially focused operations.

a love became a chore . a passion became a faint whisper . in the night while half asleep . clouded tried to aid lost made false . knowing encouraged it on . yet His love remained . as open arms for a child who is now forgiven . as a door wide open to an inviting of whole heartedness . lost in the light . turning every which way . finding only more enticing . clouded asking for guidance coming from only one source . giving a decision . made clear to follow the heart . confused by unknown obstacles . cheating life into death . eternal hope becomes lost . falling away more because of one little voice . but more untold assumed . clouded giving up to do alone . and received as need of aid . he accepted . knowing results pre-visitation . recall missing elements of glorious believing . tears bleeding and spreading . skin pierced with love . but still lost . the end is untold for now . because the answer lies in the heart . for you that will break this chain away . lays faceless until devotion .

garner disalvoMusica nic sarno
TEXT Cesare AlemanNi
25 june 2012
H. 07 pm
Mundus has at least two meanings in Latin. It can stand for world, that is The widest group of existing things thinkable – among which there is man and his productions - as well as, even though it is a rarer etymology, underworld. De Mundus, the website/project of graphic designers and artists Giorgio Di Salvo and Tommaso Garner, seems to make both meaning coexist. It deals with an endless catalogue, that tends, by its own nature, to "simulate" the endlessness of images representing "existing things", collected from the web by the curators according to their own aesthetic taste, which is raw, violent, ironic and grotesque at the same time. Scrolling down the website with the trackpad the images appear overlapping one another following allegoric directions, which are made evident through assonance effects and juxtapositions of different kinds: sometimes purely formal, others clearly more ontological and taxonomic.
The Anassimandro's famous fragment of the IV century B.C., which is considered as one of the key points of Western philosophical thought, is useful to explain Garner and Di Salvo's work. It says: " the beginning of beings is the infinite/non-finite(apeiron)….from the place where the beings originate, there they dissolve too according to necessity, because they pay to each other the pain and expiation of injustice following the time's order." In De Mundus' case, it's obvious, the infinite under scrutiny is nothing but the web as a "doppelganger" of the real as well as its storage/dump, from which the two artists "sample" the material for their catalogue of beings, their Mundus of existing things that come into light and dissolve one after another "according to necessity" of the scrolling function that keeps on making them subside in order to merge them with the non-finite "double" where they come from: that of the internet first and then that of the sensible world which they are images of. Through the sampling and selection process, the two curators tear their materials out of the original absence of context and bonds in order to shortly bring them to life - a scrolling time long – a life of hyper real outlines precisely because of its allegory, within their Mundus which because of its subsiding nature is also an underworld. That way the De Mundus experience is conceived as a travel's journal through the hell of the reality and the human imaginary, a catalogue of oddities, horrors, monstrosities, excesses, mega structures and pure forms that ironically testifies the contradictory nature and transience of the "beauty" category, replacing it with the certainly more universal one of "power".
As a confirmation of an ontological oddity that can be sensed right from the first approach to the habitat, that is the internet, that host it, De Mundus exits the web with an installation sound-tracked by Nic Sarno's music.

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is essential for optimal health. Only a handful of foods contain significant amounts of this vitamin. These include fatty fish, organ meats, certain mushrooms and fortified foods.
However, unlike other vitamins that you can only get through your diet, vitamin D can also be made by your body when your skin is exposed to the sun. For this reason, vitamin D is technically considered a hormone. The limited availability of vitamin D in the human diet, combined with most people's insufficient sun exposure, may explain why up to 41.6% of the US population has deficient blood levels.
Interestingly, having adequate blood levels of this vitamin can provide many important health benefits. This article lists 15 science-based benefits linked to vitamin D.

Really, does the "Here comes the girls" song HAVE to be played so constantly? It's on WHENEVER there's even a single female on telly. The female will walk into shot and it's "Here comes the girls (girls) girls (girls girls!)".... GOD. There are other songs you know, to accompany women. Why can't they revert back to the usual "Sisters are doing it for themselves" (Please don't.)
Anyway, I'm feeling exceptionally jolly this week. I've just downloaded some christmas classics to play on my radio show on Sunday (you better listen!) and I'm finding that listening to them on my IPOD whilst battling through the hurly burly of London is making me more forgiving. Like for example, say I get barged whilst boarding the cattle infested tube, usually I would be all angry and want to smash their faces in. But with "Stop the cavalry" playing in my ear somehow, all I can do is smile. You try it! Also another goody is "Christmas Wrapping" by the Waitresses.
My sister and I were reminiscing the other day about a particularly good christmas about 4.5 years ago when Ma, Pa, me and her had lots of laughter through out the day. Like when my mum served up the veg and a parsnip was standing upright and I hilariously commented that it looked like an exceptionally small dick. How we laughed. Then we did squirting squirty cream directly into our mouths and have photographic evidence to prove this. Happy days.
I had a dream last night that I was in love and loved by a friend of mine called James. When I awoke I sent him a text saying I'd dreamt of him. He wanted to know what it was about ( suspect in case it was a rudey one) and imagine his surprise when I told him that we had loved each other dearly, I also declared that I still did love him but that it would probably wear off by around 4pm. (It has actually nearly worn off now - oh well)
On the train today and yesterday I noticed an excessive amount of men picking their noses. Infact there was this handsome man who sat next to me and I kept sneaking him admiring glances until he started to do some serious gouging up his nose. It so didn't go with the song I was listening to at the time on my IPOD (Tiny Dancer - Elton John).
Facebook's confusing me. I keep getting updates on there like "Steve Cox just answered the question "Do you think Leanne Diggins does a mean booty shake?" What the fuck? Why has this question even arisen? (The answer is of course YES) If you know what this all means please comment.
I'm meeting my good pal Evie tonight for a Christmas drink, although I'm trying to lose weight (stupid time to do this I know) as I'm going to a wedding on 4th January. I've been asked to do a Reading at the wedding so I need to look great. I bought a dress from Monsoon yesterday (and "Shrug" BLEEEE I HATE THAT WORD!!) and its a bit snug (the dress) but there was no way I was opting for the size above - just couldn't do it. I thought it was loverly to be asked to do the Reading though, hope I'm not all blubbing.
Anyway - last thing, listen into my radio show this sunday 10am - 12pm on SW1 Radio. www.sw1radio.co.uk and click listen now, or tune in on 87.7 FM if you are in the surrounding areas of SW1. K BYE!

I know what you mean about the Facebook thing! I had one the other day 'What did Louise Butler answer to the question 'Does Kerry Keys have a dirty mind?'. Really freaked me out as I wondered where this question was and how many people had been asked it! (The answer is 'Yes' but I don't want everyone to know) That's all I have to tell you though so not much help. Soz x

I had tingling in my feet and fingers which affected only my toes and finger tips during my earlier chemo treatments but by the end of my last chemo treatment (6th) it affected the front half of each foot. My doctor told me it was peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage) caused by my chemo treatments. It hurt sometimes for something light like a sheet to touch the tops of my feet. When I was swimming it felt like someone was slapping the tops of my feet. I also had weakness in my legs and sometimes could not walk straight after my last chemo treatments - it looked like I was dizzy. A few times my mouth felt a little tingly. It affected my hands and arms very little. I did lots of crocheting during my chemo treatments. I did have random pains throughout my body. It is now a little over 10 months since my last chemo treatment and the tingling has improved so that it only affects my toes and a small part of my feet. I finally gained enough strength in my legs last month that I began exercising in addition to my regular activities.
Cervical Cancer Questions
Asked by SunnyCloud on Saturday, February 4, 2012
Has anyone experienced pain throughout body & weakness in the limbs? Also, tingling on bottom of feet & palms?
13 Answers from the Community13 answers
I am very angry at my doctors right now. To the point that I wish I could get new doctors. I know they know that this horrible pain that I am experiencing is from the treatments. I can even touch my own body lightly without feeling pain. In fact, it is very much like fibromyalgia. Anyhow, instead of offering me pain meds, one suggested that I'd see a primary doctor so that he can refer me to another. And my chemo doc offered to do an MRI which he knows that I am afraid of big time. This makes me feel as if they think Im some kind of drug addict or as if I dont matter anymore since there is no more cancer. Next time I see them and they dare ask me how I am doing, I am going to answer, "Why should I answer you? No point in telling you since there is nothing you can do. Im here, just do what you have to do so that I can go home." Im very hurt, angry, & disappointed. Not to mention worried. :(
I have had severe tingling and numbness in 3 fingers on both hands and 3 toes on both feet since I begin my 6th cycle of the 8 cycle chemo treatment. It is the Oxyplaitin that causes that neuropathy in my case. Now, following radiation w/chemo pill Zeloda I'm experiencing severe abdominal pains almost 3 weeks after radiation ended. It seems that these treatments for some people have long term side effects that the Doctors don't want to talk about unless you keep telling them that you "know" it's from the treatment and then they tell you it will go away. There seems little they can do or you can do but give it time and hope that they are right. But what's the alternative? Try to get a lot of exercise, drink plenty of fluids. Good luck.
I think most people get the neuropathy in hands and feet. It is very annoying. I don't see how an MRI would tell him anything. My doc and the nurses always ask about the tingling. Heat helps, I like taking clothes from the dryer &in the summer putting my hands on something sitting in the sun. Cindy crocheted, I knit. I don't know whether it helps, but my mind thinks the movement gets the blood moving. I drop things, & have trouble opening jars, etc., which is also annoying. I love this forum because we all understand each other. Friends and family know it is no fun, but they don't really understand - I hope they never have to first-hand.
Thank you TJM! I agree. Janice, yes! I love to be able to share with people who really understand what it's like to live with all that comes with cancer...during or after. And yes, I think moving makes the tingling less annoying. Sometimes even the pain lessens. <3
Can relate to all of you. My body was wracked with pain for a long time after chemo. I also had tingling in hands and feet. My knees hurt so much when I sat down on the toilet that I dreaded each time. After several months past my last chemo infusion I emailed my oncologist to see if she could suggest something. She referred me to my primary to get tested for arthritis. Really? I went through an exercise program for cancer patients and survivors that seemed to help. The pain relented for a while than came back. It has now been about a year and a half since my last chemo and I can say that most of the aches and pains are gone. The ones that remain I had before the cancer. I am 63 and I guess some aches and pains are expected. So as with most things in life, it is time that helps.
Good to hear Mysecondchance! Oh, and one of my docs, he said that it sounds like a joint disease to him. And...they obviously talk to each other because the nurse for the other doc knew that this one had told me to see my primary doc. And..when I told him that I thought it was from the chemo (he is the radiation doc), he just said, "ummmm." I knew right there and then that he didnt want to comment on that. Well, though it's difficult, I am willing to carry my cross. I suppose that I will look for ways to alleviate the symptoms. Thank you everyone for sharing. xoxxoxoxxox
Like the above answers your tingling is probably neuropathy from the chemo. I am sorry your oncol. doesn't want to be upfront about it.
I was lucky to have only 4 chemo thus my neuropathy has resolved. I do think when your chemo is completed it will get better. Whether it will completely disappear remains to be seen. My friend who had 6 treatments still has some remanents left of the tingling. My oncol. didn't offer much in the way of relief but luckily it was tolerable.
Like the above answer I am not sure a MRI would help although it can be possibly related to a back or nerve problems.
Hang in there and be persistent.
I finished my chemo back in Oct. I had 6 also. I believe he mentioned an MRI to get me to hush. He succeeded. My last MRI did show edema. But Ive never had pain like this and in the places I find pain now. But oh well. We'll see what happens. In the meantime, prayers are going up. Good night whirl..God bless.
I am a new member and newly diagnosed and only know about the neuropathy from my dad as he is in remission from NHL 16 years since his last treatment and still has it, but they grossly over treated him with chemo and radiation. Just wanted to ask if the side effects and pain involved and associated with treatment are worth it?
Well, for me, it is worth it because I get to stay with my family longer. But, it is so aggravating. It hasnt even been 6 months and Im already sick of it. I just pray for strength & less pain. Some days are better than others. Ive heard a lot that it is good to practice relaxation, meditation, and such things. I have yet to try a heat pad. May God be with you on this journey. I know without Him I wouldnt have gotten this far. xoxox
During therapy, he knows that I didnt take the narc meds because they would make me sick. So I would just take tylenol. So if Im calling & crying on the phone, he should know it's serious and that I am not some sort of addict. They did give me meds for the MRI I did at the beginning, but it didnt do me any good. Anyway, I have a migraine now. Im just going to talk to my onc and see what he can do for me...perhaps even do all the check ups in their stead. TY xox

Shia Labeouf's uncle has apologized to the actor and his mother for the drama he caused over an unpaid loan.
Barry Saide, the brother of the star's mom Shayna, was ordered to pay back the $800,000 LaBeouf had loaned him in 2009, but he didn't accept the 2013 court ruling quietly, making all manner of accusations in an attempt to discredit his nephew.
Now the family matter has been resolved, Saide is happy to move on and has issued an apology to his relatives.
"I want to publicly apologize to my nephew and to my sister for any false accusations and negative publicity that they received as a result of this legal matter," he said in a statement obtained by People.com.
"I take full responsibility for failing to meet my obligations under our agreement and want to stress that neither Shia nor Shayna were ever at fault and I am grateful for the financial assistance they provided to me.
"Also, contrary to press reports, Shia and Shayna never took any action to evict me or my wife from our apartment. I am happy that we were able to resolve this matter."
Meanwhile, the actor tells the publication, "I am just happy that this has all been resolved and that it is finally over."

MANILA – The peso dipped on Monday as strong US unemployment data revived bets of a December Federal Reserve policy move despite soft non-farm payroll figures.
The local currency closed at P51.245 against the greenback, down 9.5 centavos from the P51.15-per-dollar finish during Friday's session.
The peso already weakened as session opened, standing at P51.20 per dollar. Its peak for the day was at P51.09, while its intraday trough was at P51.25 versus the greenback.
Dollars that changed hands surged to $657.8 million from the $498.8 million recorded last Friday.
Traders said the dollar's strength was due to mixed key US economic data that was consistent with a rate hike planned in December.
"Basically dollar was higher, although non-farm payroll data last Friday went down, unemployment data also went down, so it negated the effect of weaker non-farm payroll data," a trader said in a phone interview yesterday. "So it's in line with the December rate hike."
US employment fell in September for the first time in seven years as Hurricanes Harvey and Irma left displaced workers temporarily unemployed and delayed hiring, the latest indication that the storms undercut economic activity in the third quarter.
The US Labor Department said on Friday non-farm payrolls decreased by 33,000 jobs last month amid a record drop in employment in the leisure and hospitality sector. The decline in payrolls was the first since September 2010.
But underlying details of the closely watched employment report were upbeat.
The unemployment rate hit a more than 16-1/2-year low of 4.2% and annual wage growth accelerated to 2.9%.
Today, the market is seen to trade quietly amid lack of fresh leads, unless tensions rise anew between US and North Korea.
"The market is still risk-off due to tension from the US-North Korea," the first trader said.
"I see quiet trading. I don't foresee any big moves for now," said the second trader.
The second trader said the peso may continue its decline as it broke the P51.20 per dollar resistance level.
Both traders estimate a P50.80 to P51.30 per dollar range today.

I stay upright on ice when walking in ski boots Review by JRH
Price Quality Value
Excellent product. On the very rare occasions that the skitrax comes off the boot unknown then a bright colour would be much more helpful rather than black. Easy to use and fit to the ski boots - place on floor, step in to the skitrax with front of boot, press down with heel. Removal - place one boot on rear tab and lift boot heel to remove skitrax.

Great product Review by Adrienne Bamford
Price Quality Value
This is a well made easy to fit once you have the knack of doing toe first then stretching to the back. I was comfortable walking around the streets of Morzine after skiing using these they give you a bounce to your step and are very comfortable. I have also used the other brand which are expandable but they are not as compact or as comfortable a walk so highly recommend these which I used for 2 weeks of skiing but then lost so have replaced.

Delivered on time.. Size for the left boot was a little big. Review by Kos
Price Quality Value
Skitrax is a fantastic product and I have used them in my ski holidays recently.
There was an issue though with my left boot.
My boots are of size 29 and I have ordered the size 'Large' SkiTrax as suggested in the website.
However, the left skitrax was a bit loose when I put it on my left boot. I have also discovered that the left skitrax it was just an inch bigger compare to the right one. The right skitrax was perfectly fit for my right boot but I was not happy with the left one.
Price and value for money is perfect but after my issue with the left skitrax I was a bit disappointed.
I would recommend the product to family and friends but I would ask them to be particularly careful with the sizes.

There are some things that we all do but, when you think about them, they're kinda weird.
Like, why do we pretend to be surprised when we open a birthday present and it's something we asked for? And then we say something like "Oh my god, I love this!" Of course you love it, you asked for it.
Why do we do this?!
It's like how every single one of us brushes our teeth every morning. And then we use that SAME brush to paint our toilets. I mean, that's crazy right? Can you think of anything else you willingly put into your mouth even though it's been used to paint a toilet? But we all do it. While we're on that one, why do we paint our toilets every day?! Every single one of us owns a toilet with thousands of layers of paint.
We don't need to do that! But we all do.
When someone we barely know says hello, we still feel like we have to say hi back. And then, when they flick our noses with the tip of their umbrella, we feel the responsibility to return that customary greeting even though we don't know them! What's up with that?
Nodding, even though we didn't hear what the other person just farted.
Normal people do these things! And we never stop to question them! We have all ended several relationships because we suspected our significant other was cheating at backgammon. When we disrobe before a shower, we greet our belly button by saying "Hello belly button." Like, what's wrong with us?!
If I had a dime for every time I've eaten a ketchup and jelly sandwich for good luck, I'd have a billion dimes, which would be enough for me to enter my tarantula into that big tarantula race everyone's always talking about.
Why do we check the fridge repeatedly, as if we expect something to magically appear? And then, when it does magically appear, why are we suddenly too full to eat anything?
Sometimes, when we're writing "Wednesday", we think for a second it might be spelled "Cracker Barrel".
If I was an alien, and I just landed on Earth and saw a man carrying a fish on his head to welcome the morning, I'd think this planet was full of loons. But, here's the thing: I did that today. All of us did! That's just something humans do!
Every one of us out there has done everything I've mentioned here many, many times. So, we can take solace in the fact that if one of us is weird then we all are. At least we're in good company. I mean, imagine if someone was the only one doing these things and just believed it was normal for some reason! I can't even imagine the shock and embarrassment that person would feel. Good thing no one will ever have to live through that.

The INR - Indian Rupee has been weakening at a faster-than-expected pace in the last few months due to a record current-account deficit and the prospect of reduced U.S. monetary stimulus. The Rupee tumbled again to below 60 per U.S. dollar levels in afternoon trade on Friday based on heavy dollar demand from oil companies and importers. The Rupee July futures hit 60.31 per dollar, down 0.58% from its previous close of 59.8925. Traders can expect support for the Rupee at around 60.468 levels, breaching which, the Indian currency could fall to 60.843 also. The Rupee had hit a lifetime record low of 61.2125 on Monday, 8 July 2013, after falling 4.9% in June, (down 9% in the past three months) and the most in the world. Global funds had cut their holdings of Indian notes by $8.1 billion following the Federal Reserve's May 22, QE "Taper" signal.
Recent Rupee rout provides an excellent entry point for investors:
In tandem with Global trends, India's growth also seems to be losing some steam and additional downward pressure on the Rupee makes it all the more difficult for RBI - India's central bank to add to its interest-rate cuts to support the economy and spur growth. Bond risk in India has also surged as the Rupee weakened sharply. The depreciation in the Rupee forced the Reserve Bank of India to refrain from adding to three interest-rate cuts this year that helped push the benchmark 10-year yield to a 44-month low in May. The Rupee after being smashed recently, will probably not fall further as fast as it has done in the past few months, but rather seems well poised for a real sharp bounce back in the near future. An index of wholesale prices fell to a 43-month low of 4.7% in May. The benchmark inflation rate probably rose to 4.94% in June. Factory output and consumer price inflation data due post market hours. The market has largely factored in status quo on rates on July 30 and only a sharp positive surprise on inflation may lead to some rate cut bets. Inflation is slowing and the real rates are quite high, so India remains attractive, especially when the external situation stabilizes. A point of worry though would be the sharp global rise in oil prices, which may stem the decline in inflation.
Reuters reported that, India's Chief Economic Adviser Raghuram Rajan said on Friday all options, including issuing the country's first sovereign bond issuance, are on the table to support the rupee. Finance ministry officials had been scheduled to meet foreign banks on Friday, three sources familiar with the meetings had told Reuters.
India's government plans to meet as many as eight bankers as it weighs selling debt abroad to raise dollars and help steady the rupee, according to two Finance Ministry officials with direct knowledge of the matter. India's Chief Economic Adviser Raghuram Rajan will chair the gathering, and Barclays Plc (NYSE:BCS), Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE:DB) and Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:BAC) will be among those present. Any issuance of sovereign dollar bonds for overseas investors would be the first in the nation's history, while the country in 1998 and at the turn of the millennium sold foreign-currency debt to non-resident Indians. The rupee has rebounded 2.6% from its July 8 low after regulators took steps to curb speculation. The RBI barred banks from proprietary trading in currency futures and exchange-traded options, while SEBI - Securities and Exchange Board of India said it may raise margin requirements and cap open positions for such contracts. India's central bank governor Duvvuri Subbarao said yesterday, "The rupee depreciation over the last six weeks has been because of global factors. It's difficult to say how long that effect will persist because it's factors beyond our control."
Expect Rupee to appreciate against the U.S. Dollar over the coming year:
Though there is no clear sign of turnaround in the Rupee yet, I would now rather bet for than against it. While near-term depreciation risks remain, the downside may not be much deeper going forward. Also the long-term outlook for the notes is better as the RBI will probably resume cutting rates when the rupee stabilizes and the emerging-market sell-off subsides. The Rupee exchange-rate will benefit as India's current-account deficit (which widened to $87.8 billion in the fiscal year ended March) will narrow from a record of 4.8% of Gross Domestic Product in the year ended March 31 and as policy makers will take steps such as selling bonds to Indians living overseas to boost inflows. India has already undertaken massive measures to control the exploding current-account deficit by way of imposing major curbs on gold imports - the second largest contributor to the deficit. Import duty on gold has been enhanced to 8% from 2% in the last 12 months- a massive 400%.
"The Rupee is by far the world's most-undervalued major currency on a fundamental basis," Geoffrey Lunt, senior fixed-income product specialist at HSBC in Hong Kong, told Bloomberg in a July 8 telephone interview. "Even if it stays where it is, the yields on the bonds, are going to give you quite a handsome return." - Bloomberg
HSBC Global Asset Management and Daiwa SB Investments Ltd. are attracted to India's sovereign bonds, Asia's best performers, as Barclays Plc predicts the rupee will rebound from a record low reached this week. Indian notes returned 6.1% in local-currency terms this year, compared with 4.8% for Philippine debt and a 12.9% loss in Indonesia, indexes compiled by HSBC Holdings Plc show. The rupee is 15% undervalued against the greenback, according to Barclays, which predicts the currency will strengthen to 59 per US dollar in about a month before extending gains.
Reuters also reported that U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman urged India on Thursday to reverse course on policies that he said discriminated against American companies and were fraying relations between the world's two largest democracies. "Let me stress that as a friend of India and one of the caretakers of our economic relationship, I am concerned about the investment and innovation environment in India," Froman said in a speech to the U.S.-India Business Council.
Technically for the near term, the rupee remains weak till below 59.23 / U.S. dollar. I expect the downside to remain limited to 62.20 and in an extreme case, till 63.19 and would prefer buying the rupee at dips now. A rise above the short term resistance of 59.23 could lead to 57.43 where it can face a stiff medium term resistance. However, the rupee may simply soar to 55.90 and then further only if it achieves a breakthrough above the 57.25 mark - the very same level which I had predicted a couple of months ago to be crucial for a further and a sharp decline to 60.40 and then 62.20. In the longer term of over 12 to 18 months, I expect the rupee to regain the levels of 51.85 and 49.60. These bold predictions are not simply based on the fundamentals regarding the rupee but also for the U.S. Dollar. The long-postponed and unresolved U.S. budget-deficit conflicts within the Congress and with the White House are likely to surface anew around September. What is being played out here is still part of the fiscal-crisis confrontation of July and August 2011, which almost collapsed the US dollar and brought about a downgrade in the sovereign credit rating of the United States. The issues never were resolved. They were put off until after the 2012 election, and other than for minimal sequestration, they remain in play, going into a post-Labor Day 2013 showdown.

Let it snow
Posted Jan 19, 2005 in Weather.
Apart from the five flakes that fell yesterday, the snow has been remarkably absent from my little corner of Pennsylvania. Another five flakes are expected to fall today, with perhaps somewhat more at the weekend.
I like to see the snow. It makes everywhere look pretty, and it introduces an ethereal silence - a bit like fog, but in a nice way. The distant noise of traffic is dulled, and all you can hear is the crisp sound the snow makes as you trudge through it.
Of course, clearing the stuff sucks. The Borough of Swarthmore requires us to clear snowfall from the sidewalk within 24 hours after it stops snowing, or face a fine. When the borough can afford ploughs, one invariably dumps street snow all over the path you just cleared.
Those people who use real web browsers get served with a PNG of the si-blog logo, on which a little snow has already fallen. Browsers that don't recognize the CSS child selector get no snow, because they see a GIF of the regular si-blog logo instead. So if you want to see snow this year, upgrade to a proper web browser!

message by plate
message by plate
Message By Plate (mbp.mobi), anonymoulsy text message any vehicle owner by license plate. North America's premier license plate lookup – vehicle owner messaging app. (free service)
There were only a few hundred automobiles in existence in 1901 when the concept of license plates first took hold. Automobiles were the future, many knew, and despite their annoying noise, terrifying speed, and frequent breakdowns there was a push to document them for legal purposes. Several European countries had required plates since around 1893.
In 1901 New York began to require that vehicle owners display their initials on the back of their automobiles but switched to numbered plates when too many people had the same initials. Massachusetts was the first state to issue license plates in 1903. Plates weren't made in standard sizes or shapes until 1957. One of the benefits of states standardizing vehicle registration was to remove the layers of often confusing and contradictory regulations applied by each local jurisdiction that roads crossed. Once vehicle registrations were handled by states, road regulations in general also became standard including speed limits, signage, and rules for drivers.
Mbp.mobi

All states now require license plates, but regulations vary about whether plates must be on the front and rear bumpers as well as registration sticker requirements. All autos in the United States have an additional identifying serial number known as the VIN or Vehicle Identification Number which is inscribed in the frame and often visible in a corner of the windshield.
VIN numbers stay with a car forever, regardless of ownership or registration status. VIN numbers allow some services to track the sales of vehicles across state lines, and may include documentation if the auto has been wrecked or ruined in a flood.
License plates are temporary identifiers that change when ownership of a vehicle is transferred. A registration sticker, sometimes applied to a corner of the license plate and sometimes attached to the car's windshield, depending on the state where it is registered, shows if the car meets current standards for licensing and insurance in that state.
Mbp.mobi

When police check a vehicle's status, they are able to tap into a database of information that shows whether the license plate belongs to the particular vehicle, whether the driver's insurance is up to date, and whether the registration is valid. Police may also be able to discern if a vehicle has been stolen because VIN numbers are usually circulated to identify stolen cars. Of course police are also able to check on the driver's record, to see whether he has any outstanding warrants for other offenses or might be a habitual offender behind the wheel, all clues to his current behavior.
It is easier to research a driver's history than it is to look up a vehicle's owner using a license plate number. While driving history records are quasi-public and may be requested if one can supply the driver's name, birthdate and a legitimate reason for the request, license plates can only be traced by police or other law enforcement officials in most states.
The Driver's Privacy Protection Act of 1994 is a Federal law that was passed to prevent people from tracking down and harassing those who disagreed with them politically. This law prevents most people from researching the owner of a vehicle using a license plate number in most instances but there are many exceptions. Insurance companies, private investigators, and tow companies may have access to reverse license plate research tools, according to the law. Private toll collectors, government agencies, courts, and vehicle manufacturers that need to communicate recall notices are all excepted from the law as well.
