Luhans'k Region
Luhans'k Region appeared on the map of Ukraine in 1938 as a result of division of Donetsk Region into two regions as Stalin and Voroshylovograd. Today Luhans'k Region enters the top five highly developed industrial-economic regions of Ukraine. There is concentrated 5.4% of general fixed assets of Ukraine and 4.5% of labour resources in the region.
The area of Luhans'k Region is 26.7 thousand square km. The number of population is 2524.9 thousand people.
The bowels of Luhans'k Region are rich. Its supplies of high-quality anthracites and coke coal are calculated by billion tons. Exactly the history of the Donetsk coal basin began from here: at the beginning of XVII century its first coal deposits were opened there. Soon in basin of the rivers of Bila and Luhan the landowners and peasants obtain fuel for themselves by the open method, and in 1795 in the zone of Lysychansk city the industrial development of coal for the Luhans'k Iron Foundry began for the first time in Donbass.
The extractive industry makes almost one fourth of production volume of industrial goods in the region. The coal enterprises prevail among extractive enterprises. The coal complex of the region comprises 200 enterprises, including 58 mines incorporated in 8 state coal mining holding companies and State Enterprise "Luhans'kvuglebudrestrukturyzatsiya" as well as 22 concentrating factories. The total production capacity of mines makes almost 28 million tons of coal per year as well as concentrating factories – 50 million tons. The measures on realization of the government programme "Ukrainian Coal" are taken. The exploited supplies of anthracite coal will be sufficient for 200 years by calculations of specialists.
Luhans'k Region has another home energy source – the natural gas and its extraction has been recently started. There are only 10 gas condensate deposits here. Five new mining holes were put into operation in 2002 that promoted the extraction of 333,4 million cube m and the extraction growth by comparison with 2001 made 16.0%. This sphere is perspective and attractive for entrepreneurial activity and investing. There are four basic enterprises on production of electric power in Luhans'k Region, which enter the Ukrainian grid such as Luhans'k TPP, LLC "Luhans'k Power Association", SE "Syevyerodonetsk TPP" and SE "Lysychansk TPP". In 2002 they produced 4116 million kW of electric power and 12635.3 thousand Gcal of thermal power.
One fifth part of general volume of industrial products is produced by the oil refining industry, which is represented by the JSC "Lysychansknaftoorgsyntez". In 2002 they produced the commercial products to the amount of 2731.2 million hryvna or 111.7% to the volume of 2001.

The products of the enterprise successfully compete on internal and external markets and repeatedly won prizes in the international exhibitions. In the JSC «Barvnyk» the investor (Logrus-Chemical Corporation) executes works on commission of maximal number of workshops pursuant to the plan of enterprise rehabilitation. In 2002 by comparison with 2001 the production volume of commercial goods has been increased twice. The basic products are dyes, pigments, varnishes, plasticizers, betanolor, chemical facilities of plant protection and chemical detergents.
The LLC "Lysychansk Industrial Rubber Plant" produces the conveyor rubber-fabric ribbon, form and non form industrial rubber wares, wedge passes, sleeve and plans in the future to increase the output of the basic products – the conveyor ribbon by 5 times. The measures on decline of unit cost are taken in the enterprise.
The enterprises of metallurgical industry provide almost one fifth part of general commercial products of the industry and the production volumes are annually increased. In 2002 the growth rates of commercial production made 113.8%. The JSC "Alchevsk Iron and Steel Works" is well-known in Ukraine and beyond its boundaries by its products (cast-iron and steel casting, rolling).

Gibraltar FA opens new headquarters
Monday 18 November 2013
Article summary
UEFA's newest member national association, the Gibraltar Football Association has opened new headquarters which will serve as a temporary home until 2016.
Article top media content
Article body
The Gibraltar Football Association (GFA) has officially opened its new headquarters adjacent to the Victoria Stadium.
Gibraltar's minister for sport, Steven Linares, inaugurated the premises accompanied by the chief executive of the Gibraltar sports and leisure authority, Joe Hernandez, Desmond Reoch, the GFA president, and GFA chief executive Dennis Beiso, as well as other officials from the association.
The new offices will be the Gibraltar FA's home until the new national stadium – Europa Stadium – is completed in 2016. The headquarters contain a boardroom, administrative offices, kit/equipment storage rooms and a lecture room, providing the association with much-needed space in which to work.
Speaking to UEFA.com, Dennis Beiso said: "We identified the need for new premises very soon after becoming full members of UEFA back in May. Since then, we have taken on a number of full-time personnel and realised very quickly that we would need a new home where we could welcome our members and visitors, as well as conduct our day-to-day work in a comfortable environment.
"Of course, we are aware that our new premises are just temporary pending completion of our permanent home at the new Europa Stadium in 2016. That is something we are all very much looking forward to. The government of Gibraltar, and in particular the minister for sport and the Gibraltar sports and leisure authority, have been extremely helpful in allowing us to move into these premises quickly. We are very grateful to them for the assistance they have given us. It seemed perfectly logical that we should move into new premises next to the Victoria Stadium, the current home of Gibraltarian football."
The premises are known as 'The Boathouse' and are centrally located in Gibraltar, situated just a stone's throw from the Victoria Stadium, the sea front and marinas, the airport and the border with Spain.

First trimester: key stages
The first trimester begins on the first day of your last period and lasts until the end of week 12. This means that by the time you know for sure you're pregnant, you might already be five or six weeks pregnant!
A lot happens during these first three months. The fertilised egg rapidly divides into layers of cells and implants in the wall of your womb where it carries on growing. These layers of cells become an embryo, which is what the baby is called at this stage.
During this trimester, your baby grows faster than at any other time. By six weeks, a heartbeat can usually be heard and by the end of week 12, your baby's bones, muscles and all the organs of the body have formed. At this point, your baby looks like a tiny human being and is now called a fetus. He or she will even be practising swallowing!
When am I due?

When will I see a midwife?
Your first midwife appointment (also known as antenatal appointment) is the 'booking' appointment. This usually happens between week 8 and 10 of your pregnancy. Find out how to register with a midwife and when your appointments will be here.

Your physical and mental health in pregnancy
We also have lots of useful tips for coping with everyday pregnancy niggles. It's common for women to experience symptoms such as morning sickness, cramp and indigestion during the first trimester.
Don't forget that your mental health is just as important as your physical health. It's normal to feel some anxiety and stress but it shouldn't be ongoing. If what you're feeling isn't normal for you, talk to your GP or midwife about it. They are there to help.
Exercise, such as yoga, has been shown to reduce anxiety and is a great way to stay active during your pregnancy, too.

By Mom of 2 (not verified) on 15 Aug 2019 - 03:25
I would not recommend getting the abortion pill to make the baby deliver. Your baby knows when it needs to be born. The due date is just an estimate to make you aware that baby will be coming around that time. I would wait a little while longer (if you have not already had baby).

Brown Discharge
By Marcia (not verified) on 21 Jun 2019 - 14:31
The brown Discharge you mentioned could be implantation bleeding. Since you posted this well over a week ago, you should take another pregnancy test if you haven't had your period yet. The pregnancy hormone often isn't detectible until after your missed period- so it would be wise to check again.

I missed my period for 7 days. I did a urine test and it said that I am 2-3 weeks pregnant. I then did a blood test which confirmed that I am pregnant with a HCG count of 169. The day after my blood test, I started my period. The doctor advised I must do blood tests again in 4 days time to check if my HCG count has increased. 4 days are still so long and its making me anxious. Am I having my last period because its early days or have I had an early miscarriage?

I am 6 weeks 5 days pregnant now, my hcg levels were slow rising with 2900 and 3300 in 48 hours. Scan revealed gestational sac but no yolk sac or embryo, also sac marked as irregular at 7 * 4 * 7, scan was hard and painful as they state visibility was poor due to its position, not sure what that means.
Can you please advise?

I am not sure but think you are. Women who are pregnant have the prolactin levels btw 34 to 386 ng/mL. You might want to confirm from your doctor.

Photo Credit: Charlie Ban, Run WashingtonNorthwest High School's Elton Quansah spoke passionately about his travels to Ghana this summer. The seventeen-year-old returned to his homeland this summer for the first time since immigrating to the U.S. when he was eight. Yet, through all the excitement of his travels abroad, the guys of the Northwest Jaguar cross country team were on his mind.
Of the expected top seven male varsity runners at Northwest High School, three are African. The varsity runners that are not African are joked to be honorary Africans.
"I was thinking about bringing them back this African shirt called the dashiki so that they can see that we're all one," said Quansah.
The shirts were on display for the first time last night at the Run Washington Pep Rally at Georgetown University. The Pep Rally hosted by Pacers Running Stores and Run Washington Magazine selected Northwest High School as the preseason boys team to beat within the Run-Washington Magazine Maryland coverage area (PG and Montgomery Counties). If Northwest makes any other podiums this year, you can expect to see the shirts, but don't view the vibrant colors of the shirts as a means of attracting attention.
"We are all as one," continued Quansah. "There is no such thing as 'oh, he's not from Africa or he was born somewhere else.' I bought the shirts so that we could all be one. It doesn't matter. We are all a team and we all have the same goals and we're trying to go for the state title."
A quick search on Amazon shows that you, too, could have a colorful dashiki for about $20, but Quansah says that he picked up the seven dashikis for about fifty US dollars in Ghana (~$7 each).
The Northwest running team assembled on the track before the crack of dawn. At 5:45 AM, blurry-eyed runners trotted in the dark through a brisk five minute warm-up, dragging tracks through thick dew on the grass. It was almost chilly at 70 degrees - no doubt the coolest weather in weeks after intense thunderstorms broke up a brutal heat wave yesterday.
Animated head coach Robert Youngblood woke the team up by reminding everyone of his attendance policy. The whole team started the workout by running five steep hills as punishment for various infractions incurred over the weekend, though I suspect that the hills would have been on the agenda even with good behavior.
The top ability group was assigned 5x1 mile around the school's athletic field. The next tier of boys and the top girls ran the same workout at their own pace while the developing runners in a third group ran five shorter repeats of four to five minutes each.
The first rep was fast with the top five boys recording roughly 5:24. Rep #2 was 5:28. The pack thinned out on #3-5 with Komlan Attiogbe maintaining a 5:28 and the #5 man staying within about fifteen seconds on each. The coach tacked on three or four hard 150-meter sprints through grass.
Said junior Chase Osborne, "Today was one of our harder days. We usually don't do five of these. We usually would do three or four then do something else like a little run out."
According to Attiogbe, the workload is noticeably increased this year.
"We started it this year. We're extending every workout, the amount we do and the distance we've been running," he said.
"[Youngblood] likes to make us always end with sprints to get us used to switching gears at the end of the race," added Jose Infante.
Expectations are high for the Northwest boys team which returns six of their varsity seven from a team that finished fourth at last year's Montgomery County Championship Meet. Last year's team was also 3rd at the 4A West Regional Meet and 8th at states which Osborne said was a disappointment. The team is determined to correct the mistakes of last year and do it primarily with pack running.
While Attiogbe led each rep and carried himself as a #1 runner, everyone on the team was insistent that the team has seven #2 runners.
Said Quansah, "We don't have a superstar runner. We have seven #2 runners so we all gotta close the gaps so we can get up there in the top."
Team captain Rory O'Neil spoke on the team's goals.
"We're looking at very high in the county..." said O'Neil.
His teammates interrupted and corrected him by insisting that the goal was to finish first in the county.
"...Yeah, first. Same with regionals. And states...top three or better."
Youngblood echoed those goals.
"The goal is to be top three in the state," said Youngblood. "If we are good, we have a shot at states...we have six or seven #2's. If they are all within 10 seconds of each other, we're good. If someone separates later in the season, that's fine, but we're not trying to run with Rohann or nothing stupid like that."
The Northwest girls finished eighth in the 4A West Regional in 2014 and 2015, therefore missing the state meet by one spot two years in a row. When asked about the girls team prospects in 2016, Youngblood first shook his head thinking about those eighth place teams, but he spoke confidently about this year's team.
"They know this is going to be the year," he said. "We are going to finish top ten in the state. We got the same core group we had last year and we are going to be better. I am going to teach my newbies to run."
Senior team captain Sofia Zarate was the obvious leader in warm-ups and the workout. A senior named Brooke Mandell who is new to the team was the clear #2. She is expected to boost last year's 8th place regional team that returns all of its varsity members.

Stephen Hawking holds a special place in my heart and mind. Growing up, two things dominated my thoughts: a burning desire to have some sort of career in science, and the fact that my father died from motor neuron disease at an early age. Hawking represented someone who had suffered from the latter and established an illustrious career in the former. To that end, he was an inspiring role model for me.
Which is why I stared at my Twitter feed in sheer disbelief yesterday, watching Ian Sample report on the press conference announcing Hawking's formulae for the perfect penalty and England's World Cup success. It's difficult to put the feeling into words, but the best analogy I can think of is that it was like finding out that Santa Claus doesn't exist, but an order of magnitude worse.
I've talked about pseudoscientific equations and the negative impact that they can have on public opinion of scientists before. I even tried one out once, and it was an absolute disaster. So I'm not going to go into details about Hawking's equations here. You can read the 'research report' yourself if you want. Look, I know that this is all a bit of a laugh. I know (hope) that people genuinely don't believe that these formulae carry any sort of explanatory power whatsoever (you can't reduce psychological factors to binary variables). But that's not the point. The point is that scientists shouldn't be in the business of selling out their reputations and integrity for short-lived PR stunts. It makes a mockery of mathematics, and it feeds into tired old myths about scientists being 'boffins' who have to analyse anything and everything. There are better ways to engage people with science.
That Hawking has now done this adds a new dimension to the problem, because in the past these sorts of PR stunts have been backed by scientists that don't have any sort of prominent standing in the public eye. Hawking, however, is an accomplished physicist. So by lending his credibility not just to the equations themselves, but to these sorts of stunts generally, my worry is that he potentially opens the floodgates for many more scientists to see this as acceptable practice and follow suit. Because it's only a bit of a laugh, right? And anything vaguely resembling 'public engagement with science' must be good. Right?
Well, it's not particularly funny, and I don't really see how comparing oneself to a psychic octopus constitutes a productive form of engagement. The value in these stunts doesn't lie in any useful outcome for the general public, it lies purely in the success for companies that instigate them. Yes, the betting company behind this stunt have scored a massive coup by getting Hawking to agree to it, and it will probably mean a boost in custom for them. But it doesn't add any sort of value to public discussions and debates about science.
Maybe I'm being overly cynical though. When I first found out that Santa didn't exist, I was devastated for a while. But my parents didn't sit me down and break the news to me; I figured it out myself. Something didn't quite add up about the whole process. When my skeptical curiosity was piqued, I then started finding other little clues – wrapping paper rolls hidden in cupboards that matched the presents I opened on Christmas day, realising that Santa's handwriting matched my Mum's, and so on. So when I finally confirmed my suspicions, I was quietly chuffed with myself – and I'd unknowingly started off down the road to critical analysis and an evidence-based-everything approach to life.
In the same way, Hawking's PR stunt might have a similar silver lining. I'm still reeling from the disheartening knowledge that a role model that I'd looked up to in my teenage years has fallen down so drastically in my estimation, but perhaps that's a good thing. Scientists should never be put on pedestals; they aren't special. They're just people, and sometimes people do stupid, silly or ill-advised things. It's worth reminding myself of that from time to time.

If you have a beauty bombshell to buy for this holiday season, I have ten products that will make you her most favorite person ever. I've got five picks for cosmetics and five picks for body products, with something for every budget, whether you want to splurge or save. (Items under $50 are marked SAVE, and those over $50 are marked SPLURGE.) (Some items PR samples; affiliate links)
1. Start with the eyes and go for the Paula's Choice Nude Matte Eyeshadow Palette (SAVE! $40). This eyeshadow palette is a perfect choice for EVERYONE. All the shades are matte and they range from light ivory to deep black, each shade a staple that should be in every makeup stash. This palette takes eyes from morning coffee to evening nightcap. Paula's Choice teamed with Youtube star Wayne Goss to create this slim, chic palette of truly outstanding eyeshadows – I love this palette so much I'm on my second one, and I've purchased several to give as gifts.
2. Give the gift of gorgeous lashes with a GrandeLASH Enhancer System that also comes with a free mirror (SPLURGE! $130) ure, you could go with just a mascara to help that beauty bombshell create long lashes, but why not go even bigger with this trio from GrandeLASH? This set has a 3 month supply of GrandeLASH-MD to encourage luscious lashes; GrandeLINER to enhance lashes plus give definition; and GrandeMASCARA for major volume and length. Plus, a beautiful GrandeBLING Mirror will help her admire those gorgeous lashes. Even better, right now you can get 20% OFF Any Holiday Gift Set with the Promo Code HOLIDAY20, which is good until 12/31/15.
3. A great stocking stuffer for that 'holiday glow' is the Josie Maran Argan Enlightenment Illuminizer (SAVE! $26) This is a gorgeous luminizer that gives skin a great halo of radiance. It is terrific on its own, and it turns any moisturizer or foundation into an instant illuminizer. The Champagne shade works with all skin colors, giving a healthy glow that any cosmetics aficionado will love. The Argan Oil is a terrific hydration boost for skin, too.
6. She will love the gift of Tatcha Pure One Step Camelia Cleansing Oil (SAVE! $48) first because of the exquisite packaging. Then she will really love it because it's the best – and easiest to use – cleansing oil out there. Just massage this oil into dry skin, then add a tiny bit of warm water for some lather. It rinses off cleanly and leaves absolutely no trace of makeup behind, yet skin is soft and moist. It's like a Christmas miracle. Right now, Tatcha has a very cool offer for a free cosmetics pouch when you purchase 3 travel size items. Make the Pure One Step Camelia Cleansing Oil one of the three items (my other recs – Classic Rice Enzyme Powder and Soothing Triple Recovery Cream) and you'll have a gorgeous travel set for that beauty bombshell.
7. Give her the gift of seven days of skin care treatments with this truly impressive skin care collection from Karin Herzog, The 7 Creams of the Week (SPLURGE! $100). Any true bombshell beauty will swoon over this luxurious six-week system that has a different facial cream for each day of the week — kind of like a skin care version of the 'day of the week' underwear!
8. True luxury is found with the Repechage Vita Cura Triple Action Foaming Seaweed Bath (SPLURGE! $50). It's already gift wrapped and holiday ready. Fifty dollars sounds like a lot for a bath oil, but this is a HUGE bottle and ingredients include seaweed harvested from the fresh seawaters off the Brittany Coast of France. The wonderfully clean scented bath oil has 12 vitamins, 18 amino acids and 42 trace elements and minerals for silky smooth skin.
9. She will love getting a body beautiful with the Farmaesthetics Cinnamon Girl Set (SAVE! $39 ). Inside the pretty gift box are five fabulous body exfoliators: Handmade Rainwater, Rose & Cinnamon Soap, organic rose petals that you can brew into a bath time tea with the included cinnamon stick, Sweet Soy, Geranium & Rose Bath & Beauty Oil that mixes with the Cinnamon Rose Body Scrub to make an exfoliating paste that removes dead skin and hydrates wonderfully. This is a truly impressive gift that she is going to LOVE.
10. A terrific treat for hydrated, sweet-smelling skin is Josie Maran Whipped Argan Oil Body Butter (SAVE! $35). Body butters can be heavy and sticky, but this beautifully whipped concoction is creamy and light. The beauty bombshell will be thrilled with the 100% Pure Argan Oil inside, and your gift will be unique thanks to the unusual scent combinations. I absolutely love Honeysuckle Vanilla, but you can also choose from Vanilla Apricot, Sweet Citrus, Lavender, Red Rooibos, Cucumber Aloe, Jasmine, Ginger, Tropical Orchid, and Apple Crisp. – Lisa

John Gerassi, an "unrepentant rebel," as Michel Contat calls him, has died at age 81. He was author of numerous books, including the first volume of an unfinished multi-volume biography entitled Jean-Paul Sartre: Hated Conscience of His Century and an edited volume of interviews, Talking with Sartre.
His death is met, so far, with relative silence in the English-speaking press, while in France, Michel Contat has published an obituary in Le Monde.
I reviewed Gerassi's Talking with Sartre in March of 2010. Here's the first paragraph:
It's not often that somebody will recommend a philosophy book because it is "a lot of fun," but that's exactly how Bill Martin piqued my interest in John Gerassi's Talking with Sartre. And I must say that I agree with his verdict.

Stretch Corduroy Straight Leg Pant Pants - WASHED-TEAL - 2 - Talbots is rated out of 5 by 530.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Miriam B from Comfortable, Great Fit, Easy Care! I picked up my first pair of these cords in a store, so that I could see the color (the dusty rose) and feel the material before purchasing. I absolutely love them, and have ordered two more pairs online. The pants are almost velvety soft - softer than previous year's Talbots cords, if that is possible - and the colors are beautiful. They seem to have a slightly finer wale than previous years' cords as well. The high-waisted, straight-leg fit is a classic style, and the size, 2P for me seems to be consistently accurate. It seems, however that when Talbots offers a 0P in a given item, the fit is slightly roomier, without being baggy, and sizing down to 0P works well for a more fitted look without being tight.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Talbotsfan from Great fit and very comfortable These cords fit really well. Because they are not a heavy weight fabric they can be worn fall through spring, making them extremely versatile. I have them in black, burgundy (not sure what color is called), teal and toast. One thing I like about Talbots pants is that I find I am a consistent size in whatever style I order- I have at least five different styles of pant, all in size 10.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Susie B from Not a good petite fit I really wanted these corduroys, but the fit is very strange. I usually wear a 4 Petite and have some Talbots cords that fit great. But these were about 6 inches too long.....not acceptable for petites even though I could have them shortened. But then the overall fit is off......I returned them.
Date published: 2019-12-07
Rated 1 out of 5 by Jmde from Teal is not teal I ordered the teal color and it doesn't look like the color online. The actual color is very dark, almost a navy blue
Date published: 2019-12-06
Rated 2 out of 5 by Barbara from Length of pants. The pant legs are way too long for me, who wears petite. They are going to be returned.
Date published: 2019-12-06
Rated 5 out of 5 by Adie from My favorite pants I love these high rise light weigh cord jeans. I own about 10 pair. They fit great. The are snug at first and give just a bit, which I appreciate. Grey is my favorite of the colors. The dark colors look almost like velour...and can be dressed up. I love the high waist. It is so much more flattering for anyone who has a bit of muffin top. Great slimming comfy jeans, unlike heavy corduroy. Highly recommend.
Date published: 2019-12-06
Rated 1 out of 5 by Disappointed from Fit larger than previous years! I buy this style of cord every year. Missed size 4. This year I bought 2 pairs and they are a full size larger than all of my previous Talbots cords. I measured them and they are 1/2 inch wider from waist to ankle. They are now a frumpy fit and ridiculous. I am not a tiny person and now apparently am a size 2 at Talbots. Please fix your vanity sizing so customers can receive what they order. I live in Canada and had to pay duty and hefty shipping fees, only to now have to return these larger than life pants.
Date published: 2019-12-05
Rated 4 out of 5 by Carole83 from Need bigger front pockets, please! These corduroy pants are very nice. They fit well and are comfortable to wear . They wash and dry very nicely; however the ONE thing that would made them 5 stars is useable deeper front pockets.

Can you put a boot under this pant leg. Why don't you make pants anymore to accommodate a boot? So upsetting. Can't find a boot leg pant anymore.
I wanted to help with your question if I may. I have several of these corduroy pants and am able to wear leather boots under them, not my knee-high boots but mid calf and my lower thick boots. I hope this helps.

Can the burgundy and teal colors be re-ordered as the colors were less than 2 to 3 weeks? As a premier member, I predominately shop at Talbot's as I know my sizes. Recently, many clothes are out of stock, which is disappointing for me and others.
At this time, there are no plans for re-orders in the burgundy or teal. Any updates to inventory will be reflected on our website.

This allows for predefining advanced networking topologies in the SDN platform, and integrate those seamlessly within the CloudStack workflows, without the need of porting all those SDN capabilities (e.g. GRT leaking, Advanced ACL's, Service Chaining, ...) into CloudStack. > Today this mechanism works via global settings and allows for one Nuage VSP Domain Template to be specified per CloudStack Network type (Shared, Isolated, VPC). This is fine for most deployments but it doesn't leave room for hybrid deployments in which different CloudStack networks need individually differentiated SDN capabilities. Especially for VPC's it would be nice to have finer grained domain template control. > With the proposed new features, we add the ability to configure a domain template per VPC, i.e. each VPC created in CloudStack can be configured with a different domain template.

It is very clear that the financial crisis has severely impacted top-level technologies like Content Management. The CIO, CFO, and the Management team may approach you, preaching the mantra of doom and gloom (budget cuts), Which means you need to find a way to do more with less.
So how do we find more money? Where is it hiding? As a management consultant, this is what I do. When clients and associates call me, feeling the pressure of the economy, I dive right in and start the hunt for revenue.
First, I look at the phone system. Is it current? Are you using VOIP and getting the features of a modern system? If your system is more than 3 or 4 years old, I can find big bucks with a Telephony audit. My vendors saved a client $20k per month last year – Almost a quarter of a million dollars in reduced expenditures! This kind of money means staff retention, saving YOUR job, and found money for the sorely needed Content Management system. Sometimes there is an initial cost, but Iwill provide an ROI model that makes it all clear.
Secondly, I look at the data center. Do you need it? Can we co-locate it? Is it time to migrate to the Cloud? Are you using virtualization? Is remote hosting an option? Is there adequate power? is the power expensive (in NYC, YES!), and is the real estate more valuable as office space or data center? This will require new ways of thinking, but here is the Mantra:
"If you keep doing what you have been doing,
You will keep getting what you have been getting."
Change is the most difficult part of this formula. If you are so ingrained and rigid that you can't change, then consider preparing your resume. Your replacement – trust me on this – will be a whirlwind of change and cost reduction. Staffing levels are being reviewed all the time, and remember, we are staff, and no one is irreplaceable. Keep in mind that change cannot be haphazard or impulsively implemented. Planning and procedures must be in place to reduce the risk in moving to any new system.
There are lots of other places to find cost reduction. Advertising. SEO Services. Hosting costs. The nuts and bolts of business must constantly be examined, verified, and checked for new efficiencies that drive costs down.
While attending the Interop show, I made friends with a rep who turns a typical call center into a distributed call center, and this works either inbound or outbound; your operators can work from home with an Internet connection (no commuting cost, no call center needed (no real estate costs), and all the work is done remotely using new high speed switch technology, video training, and on-line supervisors. The software is amazing, especially when you realize the cost savings!
Before your projected budget sends you into a tailspin, consider some of the options I mentioned, send me an email (mailto:email@example.com) to get specific details about where to start looking, and begin to change the perception of your management! If you do this pro-actively, you will continue to be a trusted and neccesary member of your company's management team.
There are new ways of doing business all around you; Web 2.0, on-line commerce, new technology, and more. It is very likely that your business can save real money, and reap the benefits of this change before all your competition does!
It's time to carve out some time to get (someone like me) working to preserve your business and find the means to fund an ECM initiative. It is very likely the money is right in front of you, we just need to expose it!

Fintech is a short for financial technology which refers to the use of technology to deliver faster and cheaper financial services. Fintech looks to improve efficiencies and effectiveness in the financial services industry as well.
And on July 29th, Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) issued a discussion paper on fintech regulatory sandbox (the Sandbox) which will allow regulated financial institutions (FI) and fintech companies to do businesses regulated by the Bank and to experiment with fintech solutions in a production or live environment.
Despite the fintech's presence may be small in Malaysia, there's a significant number of homegown fintech startups. Let's check out some of the current fintech startups and the services they offer here in Malaysia.
Following UK's TransferWise model, MoneyMatch Mobile App enables users to exchange currencies at midrate that can save you up to 3% per transaction. MoneyMatch eliminates the need for banks and money changers by creating a platform to match individual buyers and sellers of currencies where both sides can enjoy better exchange rates than what banks and even money changers offer.
So MoneyMatch works, an individual, for example, likes to buy US$100 for his travels will be matched with someone who wants to change his US$100 into ringgit as well.

We're Looking at a New School Year!Submitted by teacher on Fri, 08/06/2010 - 22:14.
Here's your challenge: Take a look at these clever students and make a list of what they're looking for.
Active learners need quality tools. Spend your money wisely, but find the highest quality artists' materials you can for your students. Crayons and markers need to be vibrant, true to color, and fresh. Eight colors are never enough. Order a complete spectrum. That doesn't mean you'll always put all the colors out because inventing your own colors is a cool part of being an artist, but make sure the possibilities are there. Take the time to teach how to use Mom Scissors (those lovely, honking, huge things that really cut) and make sure we use the correct names for the tools. Brayers, triangles, protractors, rotary cutters, and linoleum knives aren't mysteries if they're in common use by all the artists in the room.
Anticipate questions and make sure the answers are developmentally and second language learner appropriate. When I introduce the tools in the drawing center, I'll demo colored pencils, pass out hand sharpeners and have the kids compare the shavings with those of a graphite pencil. They'll be able to feel the waxy texture and understand why colored pencils kill off electric sharpeners. We'll practice borrowing and lending pencils in Spanish and English, setting the tone for a respectful classroom with please and thank you.
I LOVE thinking about the next project, planning for materials and thinking about how I'll put something together. So do my kids. Their job is to show up at art, alert and ready to work. My job is to assemble the materials they need, provide the lessons that their interests have shown me they need, and get out of the way. Artists need to be able to experiment, to try new ideas, and to fail. The coolest learning comes from rescuing a construction disaster, discovering a new texture in a puddle of wandering paint, or watching how a friend solves a similar problem.
Kids might argue with this one, because learning how to keep an art studio clean and making it ready for the next group of artists is a bit of a pain. It's complicated, because cleaning lessons are part controlling chaos, part doing one's share of work in the studio, part learning to be a part of a learning community, part using resources wisely, and part planning for the next session. Couple that complexity with the reality that some artists are tidy and some are pack rats, (this is *not* the place to make a comment about the teacher) some have families that teach responsibility to little ones and some don't, and there are varied systems in their regular classrooms. No matter the habits that artists bring to our shared studio - we all gain a sense of pride when we learn to work together.
All of us have snug areas of comfort with our art schema. Symbol drawings (hearts, rainbows, puffy flowers, and even symbols like Kilroy) have been shared and practiced whenever people gather since people started making marks on their world. We learn about symmetry, patterns, and replicating detail when we practice our favorite symbols. There's a real sense of community when children teach a special pattern to each other and a sense of accomplishment as its honed and practiced over and over. The tricky part is creating a safe place to try something other than those favorite patterns. That's one of the most important art teacher jobs - sharing a wide variety of materials and techniques designed to pique a child's interest. Yes, we have lots of choice in what to make in studio. No, it's not OK to make your fourteenth pair of binoculars with cardboard toilet paper rolls. You can trust me to nudge you into trying other things.
Learning about pattern, color, sequence, engineering, and properties of matter while playing with paint, clay, fiber, beads, and melted crayons - what could be better? Developing organizational skills, forming friendships and practicing a second (or third) language while stacking blocks, making books or researching animals for drawings is endlessly entertaining. Children are naturally curious and love acquiring new skills. An art studio is one of the best places on the planet to grow.
We'll be seeing you around!
Imagination? Oh, Yeah!!!Submitted by teacher on Thu, 03/06/2008 - 14:05.
When my kinderfriends first began playing at my clay dough center (home-made, of course!) I included some generic cookie cutters. Being the clever scrounger I was, I foraged used cutters and other tools in lots of places - thrift shops, hardware stores, and my "junk" boxes in the barn. At first, kids were thrilled with the huge selection of tools they could use to manipulate the dough. I kept things in a long, skinny basket on the center of the table and encouraged kids to use as many as they could during their art time. I was happy. Kids were happy. Play dough was sliced, chopped, pummelled, and tasted (I know, I know - we covered that in the safety stuff at the beginning of class, but five year olds HAVE to taste everything. Once.)
After a couple of weeks, though, I noticed that the "giggle with joy" levels had dropped substantially. I kept observing and found identical "cookies" stacked on identical, tidy piles. Careful was winning over creative and kids were demanding bigger rollers to make the dough "perfect." A sweet grandma who volunteers on occasion noticed me watching intently and quietly noted, "Maybe they'd do better with fewer things in the basket." Yep. We were both thinking the same thing.
The next time kinderfolk came in, they were met with a fresh batch of dough, complete with a color change and zippy fragrance. (I love Kool-aid colors and smells - and admit it freely.) When the kids said, "Where's the stuff?" we responded with, "Today we're using our fingers as tools and our imaginations when we make things here." Sure enough, the giggle ratio soared and the kinds of things that choice classrooms are famous for - kids using their own ideas, sharing and building upon what other kids do, and putting things together to work together were in evidence. Yes - the noise level is a little higher, but that's a healthy thing. We're having more fun now and the dough is doing a great job of keeping up with multiple squeezing and pounding that only gifted kinderbuilders can offer.

So yesterday, we were at Goodwill and Milo took the opportunity to climb up a chair and pull the fire alarm.
When the alarm went off and I didn't see him at my feet I knew it was him.
I have never seen him so scared... You could tell he knew he had done something bad. It was pretty funny.
With the alarm blaring, we walked up to the front of the store where the employees were trying to direct everyone out of the store and I told one of the clerks: "Here's why your alarm is going off!" I tried to get Milo to apologize. He was still very scared. However, after a minute he started yelling "It's TOO Loud!" at the clerk... as if it was her fault.
On the drive home I asked Milo what we learned from that experience and didn't get much of a response.
I guess some kids will do anything to see a firetruck....

Crowborough Town Council.
The incompetence of the members of the council is staggering and the arrogance as to be seen to be believed.The cock up on appointing a new town clerk seems to go on and on.The position has now been taken off the temporary town clerk and given back to the old town clerk on a temporary basis paying her an amount of £30 per hour plus expenses.Fucking hellski I thought she was a mere town clerk not a senior manager in a private business.
On another hilarious note the council seems to be trying to force the members and staff to be CRB checked to accertain whether they are child molesters or not.Why councillors or council staff need to be CRB checked is not clear but they are having a hissy fit because one unamed person is refusing to be CRB checked.
The council is now trying to change the persons contract retrospectively in order to force them to comply with this dictat.Hang on a minute-councillors are not people who can be hired and fired these are supposed to be elected representatives.Ignoring the co opted twats like "poor old" clive wilson some members have actually been voted in and it is not for the council to decide whether someone should take part in the council just because they dont want to go through the farce of having to get a certificate to prove they are not a child molester.
The unamed member who is refusing to have a CRB check either has something to hide or they are making a stand against this disgusting piece of legislation and the heavy handed implementation of it by their fellow councillors.I would like to hope that the reason for refusal is more the second one rather than the first one but who knows.
What is even more disgusting is that the chairman of the personnel commitee is none other than our friend and non elected twat Damian McAlonan.He has got a fucking cheek implementing "the rools" when he wasnt even elected onto the council and he has the bare faced cheek to put on his professional profile that he is an elected councillor when he clearly isnt.Clearly lying is acceptable whilst opting out of a witch hunt clearly isnt.

Kent Police-scared of their own shadow.
Whenever I consider just how shit our local plod is it always surprises me that just across the county border there is a Police force even more shit than Sussex.
Kent Police are not known as the KP nuts for nothing.
The latest farce to be enacted by the KP nuts is just typical of the Police in general where they see offences everywhere when dealing with law abiding members of the public but turn a blind eye to real criminals committing real crimes.
In Tunbridge Wells a man was having trouble breathing so he rightly called for an Ambulance.
When said Ambulance crew arrived rather than tending to the poor patient they saw fit to have a look around his flat (elf n safety assesment no doubt).Whilst having a look they came across a BB gun (yes you can guess what happened next cant you).The Ambulance crew left and promptly called up the KP nuts saying that the person had a gun.Kent Police true to form went way over the top and held siege to the poor mans flat for 5 hours whilst he was asleep and oblivious to what was going on outside.The first thing he new was PC knuckledragger and several robocops kicking in the door and arresting him for posession of a firearm.
Firstly it is perfectly legal to own a BB gun (I have several) and there is no requirement to store them in a secure place,similarly you can own deactivated guns quite legally.The person was not committing any crime by having a BB gun in his own home but that didnt stop the Police from treating him like a criminal .Wouldnt you think that once the Police had established that the gun was a BB gun and perfectly legal to own they would have apologised and sulked off with their tail between their legs.Bad enough that they kicked the guys door in they then proceeded to arrest him and took him down to Tunbridge Wells interrogation centre where they bailed him pending further enquiries.
Jeez before I let anyone in my house I had better hide my collection of deact guns and BB /air guns because some public sector plankton might think I am the first white christian jihadist.Just to make sure I had also better hide my sons toy guns and his action man unless the Police think we have a battalion of mini plastic terrorists hiding in the house.

Pakistan floods.
Paki stan is suffering from terrible floods at the moment and the bleeding heart brigade are out in force to make us feel guilty enough to give money to the poor drowning Pakis tanis.
Before handing over your hard earned money just bear in mind that a few weeks ago Paki stan was all for breaking all ties with us because David Cameron dared to speak the truth and accuse Paki stan of being actively involved in sponsoring global terrorism.A couple of weeks later the heavens open and they are begging us to give them money.
Consider these facts from http://grumpyoldtwat.blogspot.com/
"Just out of interest you might like to know that China have recently bunged Pakistan $200 million to help support their space program. Oh, and only 10 days ago the Pakistan Prime Minster said that Pakistan will never compromise on it's $2 billion nuclear program".
So there you go Paki stan has plenty of money but they just choose to use it on other things rather than help their own people when in need.If their own government cant be arsed to provide aid then why should we ,charity begins at home after all.I will have to look up and see how much overseas aid we got when Cumbria was struck by floods last year,I am pretty sure it will be the square of fuck all and that is what I am going to give to the Paki stani aid fund.

Speed Cameras kill .
Authorities all over the country are deactivating their scameras because they cost money to run now the councils dont get a kickback percentage of the fines levied.
It started with Swindon and now authorituies all over the country have decided they cant be arsed to run speed cameras which rather exposes the lie that these cameras were road safety devices that daily save the lives of ickle children who would otherwise be mowed down in their thousands by people doing 80 on the motorway.If these scameras were installed purely to prevent accidents then surely the councils would continue to operate them at a loss in order to save lives of ickle children wandering around in the middle of the road.
This is where the pro camera argument falls flat because the second the money stops pouring into the council coffers the cameras are switched off.What has also screwed the pro camera looneys is the fact that in Swindon the number of accidents and fatalities have decreased since the cameras were removed meaning that the cameras actually caused more accidents and fatalities than they stopped.
Predictably all the little hitlers from ACPO (private company) are going overboard with the misinformation that our roads are going to resemble a demolition derby because the scameras are gone.As for the little wankers that work for the scamera partnershits they had better start looking for proper jobs to do because the great speed camera scam has hit the buffers .Once the speed camera genie is out the bottle and people realise that accident rates have decreased by scrapping them there is no way ACPO(private company) and the scamera partnershits lies will ever be believed again.
Sussex Police who run the Sussex Scamershit will eventually fall into line when they run out of money and have to choose between Speed Cameras and new BMWs for everyone.Perhaps Sussex Police will eventually realise that the trust that the public had in the Police has gone due to their quite discraceful war on motorists when murderers and rapists walk the street.The Police for too long have viewed the law abiding driving public as a cash cow to milk at every opportunity.Driving at a few miles an hour over the limit is not a crime its just a breach of an arbitary limit set by some jobsworth who thought that reducing a speed limit from 50 to 30 would be a good idea because it would mean more fines.Contrast the way motorists are treated with the way real criminals are treated and you get some idea how low our Police Farce has fallen over the last decade or so.The Police need a rocket up the arse to get them to tackle the real criminals in society rather than sitting around pressing buttons on a computer issuing illegal fines to people whilst tucking into their favourite doughnuts.If they spend half the time and effort in tracking down real criminals as they do harrassing motorists our towns and cities would be crime free.Realistically thats never going to happen is it because the Police are no longer a crime fighting force but an equal opportunity diverse organisation that prefers to ponce around Brighton with a bunch of gayers rather than tackling crime .

Adding to MTV's high-flying ratings year, the Video Music Awards drew an average of 11.4 million viewers on Sunday, representing the channel's biggest single audience since 2002.
The awards telecast, hosted by Chelsea Handler was widely panned, and it visibly lacked the kind of must-see TV moment that MTV specializes in. Still, viewers flocked to the spectacle, perhaps to see how Kanye West and Taylor Swift would treat each other after he snatched the microphone away from her during a V.M.A. acceptance speech one year ago.
Last year's awards show garnered 8.96 million viewers. In 2008, it drew 8.43 million viewers.
The awards have been on a growth curve for several years. And MTV, too, has been enjoying something of a renaissance, thanks to reality shows like "Jersey Shore" and "Teen Mom."
In the 12- to 34-year-old demographic, the awards posted an especially strong rating, 10.0, easily beating all other channels.
