Conservatives make breakthrough in Quebec; Bloc wins 51 seats
The Bloc Québécois managed to hold on to most of its seats in Quebec in Monday's election. But it was the Conservatives who made bigger news by scoring big gains in the province, taking votes and seats from both the Bloc and the Liberals as Quebecers rewarded Stephen Harper with critical seats he needs to help him form a cabinet representing all regions of the country.
- RELATED: National results
Of those 10 new Tory ridings, eight had been won by the BQ and two by the Liberals in 2004. In other words, some francophone ridings voted Tory this time.
One Independent candidate won in the Portneuf-Jacques Cartier riding. André Arthur, the controversial former radio host, was elected by a comfortable margin over the BQ.
While the Bloc ended up keeping most of its seats, it appeared it would do that with far fewer votes. Its share of the popular vote slipped to 42.2 per cent â a 6.7 percentage point drop from the 48.9 per cent it garnered in 2004. That represents a major disappointment for the Bloc, which early in the campaign had mused about perhaps getting 50 per cent support.
But the biggest swings came in the fortunes of the Liberals and Conservatives. Liberal popular vote plunged by 13.3 percentage points from the last election to 20.6 per cent, placing them in third spot in Quebec behind the Conservatives.
The Tories tripled their popular support to 24.6 per cent. About 3.6 million votes were counted in Quebec by 1:40 a.m. EST. Turnout in the province was 62.7 per cent, up 3.4 percentage points from 2004.
The NDP, never much of a factor in Quebec politics, received 7.5 per cent of the vote. The party garnered 4.6 per cent of the popular vote in Quebec last time out but failed to win any seats then. It didn't win any seats in Quebec this time either.
Both Liberal Leader Paul Martin and Bloc Québécois Leader Gilles Duceppe hung on to their seats.

But with the loss of the government, Martin announced early Tuesday morning he will step down as Liberal leader and will not lead the party into the next election. "I have always been at the service of the party and I will do this tomorrow and forever," he told supporters in Montreal.
Three federal cabinet ministers went down to defeat in Quebec â all to BQ candidates and all in the Montreal area. Foreign Affairs Minister Pierre Pettigrew was defeated by Vivian Barbeau, a former president of the Quebec Federation of Women, in Papineau riding. Liza Frulla, the minister of Canadian heritage, lost to Thierry St-Cyr in the riding of Jeanne-Le Ber. Jacques Saada, the minister of economic development for Quebec, lost to Marcel Lussier in Brossard-La Prairie.
The Bloc took four seats from the Liberals in greater Montreal. Star Liberal candidate and former astronaut Marc Garneau lost by almost 10,000 votes in the riding of Vaudreuil-Soulanges.

Tory wins in Quebec to make cabinet making easier
Making gains in Quebec â and particularly winning seats â was vitally important for Harper, who will now be able to form a cabinet with Quebec representation.
Possible Quebec Tory cabinet candidates include:
- Maxime Bernier, an insurance company executive elected in the riding of Beauce; Lawrence Cannon, a Harper aide and former Bourassa cabinet minister elected in the riding of Pontiac in western Quebec;
- Josée Verner, elected in the riding of Louis Saint-Laurent;
- Jean-Pierre Blackburn, a former Progressive Conservative MP, elected in the riding of Jonquière-Alma
Harper's Quebec platform, announced five weeks ago, was widely credited with sparking the turnaround in Tory fortunes in the province. He promised a kind of "open federalism" which, for example, could see Quebec take a seat beside Canada at some international gatherings. Harper's pledge to address the "fiscal imbalance" between Ottawa and the provinces also won praise from Liberal Premier Jean Charest.
In the last election, the Bloc viewed the Liberal party as its only real opponent. Not this time. In the dying days of the campaign, the Bloc took out full-page newspaper ads in eastern Quebec, where Tory support was seen to be surging, warning Quebecers not to vote Conservative. "We will not let Calgary decide for Quebec," the ad's headline read.
In the first weeks of this campaign, Duceppe agreed with suggestions that if the Bloc received 50 per cent of the popular vote, it would be of symbolic importance because it would be the first time any pro-sovereignty party would have the support of the absolute majority of voting Quebecers.
Some observers called that one of Duceppe's rare mistakes on the campaign trail. Sure enough, as the campaign wore on and polls suggested the BQ's share of the vote would fall short of that 50-per-cent mark, Duceppe backpedalled. He said his main focus was merely to "improve" on 2004's results. He ended up doing neither. Federalists will view the election results in Quebec as a blow to the sovereignty movement.
Martin tried to position the Liberals as the only federalist party that could stand up to the BQ. But the Liberals went into the campaign with a lot of baggage. The issue of trust figured prominently from the moment the campaign began. The BQ, the Conservatives and the NDP repeatedly hammered home that the sponsorship scandal had its roots in Liberal ranks.
Even though the Gomery inquiry cleared Paul Martin, the sponsorship scandal resonated deeply in Quebec. The CEO of one polling organization declared that, among Quebecers who identified themselves as sovereigntists, the desire for a change in Ottawa was higher than for any other group, except perhaps Alberta Conservative voters.

mental health care, including the high cost, the stigma around it, and the difficulty of access. He thinks it will be particularly helpful to those on Medicaid, who might face other hurdles to getting care, like a lack of childcare, time away from work, or transportation.
He also hopes it will cut down on the difficulties of finding a good therapist. Every provider on the site has a profile, and about a third have welcome videos that allow potential clients to evaluate them before they even talk online. [Updated 10/11/13; a previous version of this incorrectly stated that all Breakthrough providers have videos on their profiles.]
So far, the start-up has partnered with 100 licensed psychiatrists and psychologists in four different states: Texas, California, Virginia, and Maryland, as well as the District of Columbia. Because regulations are set both by individual states and the federal government, Breakthrough makes sure that patients only meet with health care professionals who are licensed in their states. All 50 states do allow telemedicine, however.
Redwood City, CA-based Breakthrough used to do its own background and licensing checks, but now that so many insurers have signed on, they can focus on providers who have already passed insurers' checks.
The company doesn't charge therapists anything to join their network, and works to get them rates that are the same, or at least close to the same, as an in-person visit. Insurers pay the company a per-session fee; it's a better model than a subscription service, Goldenson says, because the insurers only pay when their members get care, which makes it easier for them to see the return on investment. And Breakthrough purposely makes it easy on the insurance companies. "We're not saying, 'Here's this cool technology and you have to go implement it and recruit providers, and make it secure behind your firewall,'" he says. "We have the network. We've already trained them on the technology, you don't have to put it behind your firewall, just sign us up like an in-person practice group." He compares the service to Uber's car-sharing service: instead of hiring therapists and starting a new practice, Breakthrough has leveraged technology to connect users to an already available service in a more efficient way.
So far, patients seem to be happy with it. The two-way sessions last up to 50 minutes, just like in-office therapy. Every few sessions, Breakthrough gives its patients a quick, four-question survey to see how it worked for them. So far, 64 percent of their patients have reported that they would not have been able to get care if it wasn't available through Breakthrough, Goldenson says.
A lot of the company's success so far, Goldenson says, has been about timing. Before he started the company, he talked to other founders who had tried to make similar models work. And he realized that two big pieces had finally fallen into place that could make teletherapy a reality: "Now we have greater research supporting telemedicine, and people are more comfortable digitally," he says. "I think the market is ready for it."

Hello Elise,
I am the manager of HealthWorksCollective[dot]com I would love to repost some of your posts. Is that possible? Let me know! Of course, we would credit you as the author, link to the original source, etc.
Teletherapy is a complete misnomer!!! The word teletherapy refers to radiation treatments from an external radioactive source, such as a clinical linear accelerator, also known as external beam radiation.
I would love to know what insurance companies are partnering with breakthrough.

I've limited the list to food and drink and here is what I've come up with. It's things like this that help me keep the dream alive while I sit here patiently waiting for the month of December to be upon us. *sigh*
-Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich at Sleepy Hollow: I don't even need to limit myself to the ice cream cookie sandwich. I just need to visit Sleepy Hollow in general. I am actually ashamed to call myself a WDW fan when I'll admit I've never even stopped here!
-Tutto Gusto: Not much more to say about this one. I love wine and I love Italy. I'm totally there.
-Truffle Mac n Cheese Hot Dog at Fairfax Fare: Truffle was all I really needed to hear in order to be convinced. It seems I'm always searching to find something good to eat while at the Studios. I plan to give this bad boy a try!
-Lapu Lapu at the Tambu Lounge: I will thank Rhiannon from My Disney Addiction for adding this little gem to her trip report thus making me add it to my list.
-Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich at Dino Bites: Is this the same ice cream sandwich that can be found at Sleepy Hollow? If so, don't judge, because I will eat another one. Courtesy of Dave at Jambo Everyone.
-Sugar Cane Mojito at Dawa Bar: Once again I've never been to the Dawa Bar and if they close this bitch before I get there, I am going to be upset.

been wanting to try some new counter service experiences and I have heard great reviews about this one.
-Avocado Margarita at La Cava: Margaritas are my drink of choice. Looking forward to trying some new flavors and see if I end up preferring the traditional.
-Citrus Swirl at Sunshine Tree Terrace: I've been in the loop with the whole Dole Whip craze. I admit I enjoy them but they don't send me running to Aloha Isle.

deep fried turkey is the best thing since sliced bread. I had one tonight and it was just amazing. Not greasy at all, just very moist.
The turkey's skin cooks almost as soon as you drop it into the oil, causing its juices to remain trapped. This creates an amazing flavour.
Suprisingly it cooks really quickly too. About 2.5 minutes per pound.
I leave you with this: What activity will cause the most visits to the emergency ward this American thanksgiving? Deep frying turkeys! Apparently people get burned all the time. Or they'll cook them in their garage and blow up their car; or the whole house.
mmmm so full and stuffed, stuffed and full…..

In Part III of our guide to building a winning business in a niche of your choosing, we will look at improving website performance. When it comes to improving the performance of your website, there are two things you need to be really good at the first being collecting useful data and the second being using that data to improve sales. So, this guide will discuss collecting and making sense of the data a little more mainly because there is more than one way of doing it. We look at what is perhaps the easiest and most efficient ways of making sense of the data you've collected.
Start by creating "Personas" or "Avatars"
Most people have no idea how important creating Avatars can be when it comes to creating a winning business, and that's why they miss this step altogether. To start with Avatars help you identify if the information you've collected is enough. The second big reason to use Avatars is that it helps you identify the various people who you're targeting. So, you end up spending less money and getting better results because you understand the client.
To create an avatar, answer the questions below or better yet plug in the data you've collected into the fields. You can print out the below form and just fill it in to get an idea as to the various types of people you're targeting.
Who is your target audience / customer / client?
- Their age
- Their gender
- What things do they spend on?
- What personality do they have?
- What does your target audience do for fun?
- What problems or physical pains they may have?
- What opportunities will they be interested in?
- How technically savvy are they?
If you're targeting more than one customer type, fill it out for each and give it a name like John Doe, Jane Doe, etc.
Create a campaign for each Avatar
Now that you have a fairly good idea of who your customers / clients are its time to put that data to use and start targeting them. An online business would most probably want to kick off an online advertising and marketing campaign. However, it's imperative that you have different campaigns for each persona and different campaign goals for each too. That way you can find out what works and why then mix it up so that everything works.
Create a separate landing page for each avatar
It may sound strange, but it's the very first step. Your landing page is going to tell you a lot about how successful the campaign is. It's not uncommon for marketers working for a winning business to create more than one landing page for each avatar. It just goes to show just how committed you are and how much time you're willing to invest. The more time you put into this step, the better.
Your landing page should consist of the following elements regardless of what Avatar you're targeting:
- It should have a compelling heading
- The landing page should reflect your brand's image and tone
- Add social proof in the form of testimonials, videos,
- If there is a major recognizable brand that you're associated with like Google, Yahoo or CNN add those to the portion above the fold.
- Have at least three 'call to actions'. The first one possibly above the fold, then in the middle and at the very end.
- Keep the content short, tight but not pushy
Once your landing page is up and running, you can have the respective campaign pointing to that page. Make sure to add the required code to measure performance i.e. from Adwords, Facebook Ads, Microsoft Bing, etc.
In Part IV of How to Build a Winning Business Marketing Strategy Online, we will look at campaign strategies and tactics.

Four Ways Exploring Reincarnation Can Help Dispel Hate
- If we come back lifetime after lifetime, then we are bound to have lives as both men, women, gay or transgender people, as Asians, Natives, Blacks, Latinos and Whites, Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, and Buddhists. Think about this before you judge anyone.
- If you are inexplicably drawn to someone, it may be you've known each other in a past life! These experiences cross social, racial and economic barriers. Don't be afraid, see what the connection is.
- Everyone has their own path for this lifetime. Often, things don't work out exactly how we'd planned. Chances are, you have had lives both with great status and power, and with great need. Don't waste time wishing things were different. When you reincarnate, it will be.
- When we hold tightly to grudges, they can follow us into the next lifetime, lessening our happiness and creating conflicts. Clean up your emotional baggage now, and be kind to your future self.
Terrifying for the Racists
In a time of unimaginably hateful, fear-based crimes, readers seek books that help give a positive message and make sense of the chaos around them. From Ashes Into Light is that balm to those who are sick of the violence and callowness reported in the news, but want relevant and contemporary topics.
In Gudrun Mouw's forthcoming novel, From Ashes Into Light, the narrative plunges into the darkness, but always comes up for air. Through the alternating protagonists, we are immersed in new perspectives of the Holocaust, seen through a young Austria Jew, and of the enslavement and Genocide of the Native Americans, seen through a boy who successfully evades capture. A third protagonist, Friede, a white girl, a war-refugee, helps bring the suffering of the past into a contemporary perspective by experiencing the other two as past lives. Friede overcomes a terrifying childhood suffering at the hands of her father, an untreated PTSD-suffering veteran, and has help overcoming her personal history by integrating the history of the past. Her message is tolerance and being true to your own knowing.
Raincloud Press is publishing From Ashes Into Light on February 26th, 2016. Available now for preorder.

Our world is rapidly urbanizing, with over half of the global population now living in cities. The pressure of such demographic changes brings about an intense need for housing, and because land on the urban periphery is cheap, building largely occurs there. But this sprawling development places heavy strains on existing infrastructure and city services. A rethink—and refit—of metropolitan regions is sorely needed.
Diane Davis, Charles Dyer Norton Professor of Regional Planning and Urbanism, is working on these issues at a global level, focusing on a place where urban pressures have become most acute: the cities and neighborhoods of Mexico.
As part of a research initiative funded by the Mexican National Worker's Housing Authority (INFONAVIT), Davis is currently studying how local, state, and national authorities have coordinated—or failed to coordinate—the provision of necessary urban services with new housing developments. She's also leading a three-year project to examine the role of political leadership in urban transport.
Many of the insights gained from this research come from case studies conducted by GSD students. Davis teaches planning and design studio courses every year in Mexico, giving students a chance to learn about real-world conditions in context. Davis also leads the GSD's Mexican Cities Initiative, which provides small seed-money grants for students to explore and advance "everyday urbanism" in the metropolis.
In multiple ways, such international studios and research projects help define the link from local community concerns to large-scale, global issues. Davis insists, "The best way for students to become educated about the principal of design and planning challenges of our times is to experience a city's social and spatial intricacies firsthand. Logistically, this can be difficult for those who are concerned with urban environments outside the United States. But it can be made possible through field-based research and studios."
The GSD believes this global outlook is vital for addressing critical social problems as a way to help redefine the future of cities around the world.

Identifying the Value of a Professional OrganizationSeptember 29, 2014
Look up professional organizations in the Encyclopedia of Associations and you'll have to go through quite a long list–some 23,000 national and international organizations. If you have a job or a business, it's likely there's a professional society or trade association you can join.
But why? You pay an annual membership fee and what does it give you? Most experts agree on six basics:
- Industry information and professional development opportunities
- Networking opportunities
- Professional credibility
- Mentoring
- Job listings
- Industry best practices
- Scholarships
Not all organizations offer everything, of course. You have to read up on the organization you're considering and learn what they offer and if that's meaningful for your goals. And, you should try to talk to those who are already members to learn about their experience with the group.
At the risk of sounding self-serving, as one of those groups, we've worked with thousands of members over the years. As the profession of personal chef has grown and evolved, we like to think our perspective has evolved with it (not to mention what we offer). And while it feels like everything you need to know about your profession is available to track down online–that joining a professional association is irrelevant these days–in fact, we feel that it's more important than ever. All of us are searching for community, whether it's via Facebook or what we used to call chat rooms (remember AOL?). All of us are looking for critical business information–how to deal with clients, how to add a new service, what are the latest trends. Having a group of people to call on who are part of a community, who are familiar with the issues you're going through, and who can help you grow in your profession is invaluable. So is access to information. The question is, though, is the group you're considering going to be the right fit?
We thought we'd help you figure out this path with some questions for you to ask yourself that should help you decide.
1. What do you wish to accomplish by joining a professional association?
We know that membership in a national or international trade association can give stability and credibility to a new business and elevate the professional impression of that business through the strength and reputation of the association. There's also strength in numbers. A solid membership base means more opportunities to locate and interact with peers who can contribute to your success. At a basic level it shows you have a certain level of expertise. At a deeper level it also gives you connections to tap into.
2. What type of benefits and support are you looking for?
Some people join an organization just to put it on their resume or website. It gives that immediate credibility we've already cited. But others appreciate a specific list of benefits. These could be access to an online knowledge base, materials like business forms that help with better managing the business, the opportunity to attend continuing education conferences or webinars, support groups via online forums, business visibility through a website or mobile app, professional coaching, access to professional insurance, software systems, website construction, links to industry information sites… The list can go on and on. You need to evaluate what's most important to you.
3. What are your expectations of the group?
You have to dig deep for this one–especially since this is one of those things that tends to depend on how much you're willing to participate. Most association members will say that the more they put into a group by using its resources, participating in events, and interacting with other members the deep their level of satisfaction and the more positive the impact on their businesses and careers.
4. What are you willing to give back to increase the value of the organization?
Initially, your expectations will probably run to "what can they do for me?" But in all honesty, much of those benefits comes from other members who feel such a close connection with the organization and fellow members that they're doing a lot of the giving. Do you need advice to clarify how to respond to an uncomfortable situation with a client? Certainly whoever is running the organization can respond, but it's just as likely if you're asking this on a forum that a fellow member will help–or two or three or more. Perhaps members in your community are teaching classes or mentoring colleagues. In time, one of those members could be you–if that's important to you. And you know the old saying, the more you give, the more you receive.
We've had this experience with many of our members. Our forums are filled with people who are eager to ask questions and eager to offer help and advice. Our conferences are populated with members who offer to teach colleagues in their area of expertise. Many of these members have bonded over the years.
One business is A Fresh Endeavor Personal Chef, whose chef/owners are Dennis Nosko and Christine Robinson. The Lexington, Mass.-based duo is one of the longest-running personal chef businesses in the greater Boston area. They joined in May 1999 and, as Christine says, "Fifteen years later, when you look forward to renewing membership, that speaks volumes. We are home."
Christine believes that even though she and Dennis aren't "joiners" their APPCA membership has given them a wealth of support. "We've gotten business guidance in the form of education and support, peer support, access to special benefits like liability insurance, leaders who understand what we do and how it works."
Christine and Dennis also have thrived on the opportunity APPCA has given them to share experiences so that "we can learn from each other. They've built a community to support its members–giving longtime members recognition and allowing them to help guide newer members. From minute one we were invited in to ask questions, compare notes, build the business, receive educational materials, get continuing education, keep up on business and food trends, and get to know colleagues."
As an organization member, Christine advises people who are newly joining a professional group to make their presence known on forums, ask questions, and keep asking until you get the answer you need. "Get to know the people who do what you do! We're an eclectic bunch but we really understand each other. Solitary business owners can be lonely. This is our office!"
Indeed, the pros call it networking–but with the right group, what you're nurturing are long and warm friendships that are both professional and personal.
So, what is it you're looking for? If by answering these questions you locate a professional trade association that meets your needs–and you join–you could be embarking on a life- and career-changing journey that gives you the opportunity constantly learn about your industry and how to improve your business. Even more, it will provide the means to meet, interact, support, and enjoy a whole new world of people who appreciate what you're trying to accomplish and are looking for the same from you.

Celebrating 2013 and Toasting the FutureDecember 31, 2013
This is the week we traditionally take a look over our shoulder to consider all that happened in the past year before we fill a glass with bubbly and toast the year about to emerge.
For us, it's been a year of transition, with all the good stuff that accompanies change.
Earlier in the fall we debuted our first mobile app, Find & Hire a Chef, for iPhone. Just last week we launched the Android version. Now it's even easier for potential clients to find you. Help yourself get found by making sure your profile in our database is complete and lists everything about you and your services that you want to promote.
We've developed an active social media presence this year on Facebook, Twitter, and Linkedin. We have twin goals with our activity: to share interesting information with you and to promote what you do. We want to spur conversation, show off your achievements, and give you resources for helping your business. Okay, sometimes, we want to provide a smile or good laugh, too. Please like our Facebook page, follow me on Twitter, and join our Linkedin group—and participate! It's fun and it'll help you, too.
Along with social media, our Personal Chef Forums have been bursting with good conversation and useful sharing—as well as some needed venting and bragging. These forums are just for members so they're a safe place to ask critical professional questions among colleagues or share successes.
We held a rocking Personal Chef Summit in Baltimore in October, along with a number of Personal Chef seminars in cities including Chicago, San Diego, for getting your business up and running quickly. Thank you to speakers April Lee, Bernard Henry, Mark X. Dowling, Randall Sansom, Scott Faber, Thomas P. McNulty, Dr. Fred Mayo, Lou Garcia, Carol Borchardt, Javier Fuertes, Jim Huff, and Cheryl Frazier-Trusty. And congratulations again to chefs Dennis Nosko and Christine Robinson of A Fresh Endeavor, who received the Personal Chef of the Year 2013, to Javier Fuertes of The Dinner Maker for Life Balance, and to Jim Huff of Traveling Culinary Artist for Marketer of the Year! We're so proud of your accomplishments!
This month I was the guest columnist for CafeMeetingPlace.com (the Center for the Advancement of Food Service Education). It gave me an opportunity to advocate why culinary teachers should consider operating a personal chef business as an adjunct career.
These are just some of the highlights of the year about to end. We've got plenty planned for the coming year, including more Personal Chef Seminars and a totally new website. All of this is to serve you, so if you have any suggestions or ideas for how we can do it better, let us know!
Dennis and I are your biggest supporters. We believe in the importance of the work you do and want to help you achieve your goals. Let's lift a glass to the year we're leaving and toast 2014! Here's to a healthy, happy, and prosperous New Year!
What were your 2013 successes? What do you want us to do for you in 2014? Please leave a comment and let us know. Next week we're going to showcase, what else, New Year's resolutions. Please check our Private Discussion Forum — General for Caron's request for suggestions and tell us what your personal chef resolutions are and why so you can appear here.

There's no question that cancer and its treatment can take its toll on a person.
While each person's cancer experience is different, the physical, emotional and spiritual challenges the person must face has profound consequences on the healing process. After all, cancer doesn't just happen to one's body, it happens to one's whole self.
Healing the whole person is the focus of the Integrative Medicine Department at the Roy and Patricia Disney Family Cancer Center at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center. Their team of doctors, nurses, diet specialists and complementary medicine practitioners offer patients and their caregivers a variety of options to take an active part in the recovery and healing process.
Integrative medicine is a total approach to care that involves the patient's mind, body and spirit. It combines standard medicine with complementary medicine practices that have shown the most promise in clinical trials.
Sonic healing is one of many types of integrative medicine available at the Disney Family Cancer Center (DFCC). The class is taught each Tuesday afternoon on the cancer center's campus, in Burbank, Calif. Sonic healing involves the resonating sounds of a quartz crystal bowl, which promotes relaxation and stress relief.
The quartz crystal bowl has emerged as a powerful sonic healing modality over the past 15 years, said Dr. Lester S. Garfinkel, MD, FACP, a medical oncologist and sonic healing practitioner at DFCC. He said the bowls are a modern adaptation of Tibetan bowls that date back to the 13th -15th centuries.
Integrative approaches have been shown to decrease symptom distress, improve quality of life, and aid people with cancer in regaining a sense of control over their lives, according to the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), the agency that funds scientific research on complementary and alternative medicine. Integrative approaches are increasingly being utilized as adjunct treatment in modern medical centers across the country.
That's how Debra Selle, a cancer patient at DFCC, first stepped into the sonic healing classroom a few months ago.Read more in Roy & Patricia Disney Family Cancer Center at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center

Are you looking for a high quality casing tool to help you complete your next drilling project? If so, you're probably trying to find the safest, most efficient piece of machinery on the market today. If this sounds like what you're going through and you need some assistance, the professionals at DrawWorks can point you in the right direction. With an inventory that's filled with patented products, you can count on us to help you get the right tools in the hands of your contractors.
The DrawWorks Casing Running Tool (DWCRT) is a piece of equipment that stands out in more ways than one. If you're currently on the market for new tools for casing and drilling, this is something you should definitely take a look at. The innovative tool has built-in locking and setting mechanisms. These integrations will help you reduce casing damage, access higher load ratings, and keep the operators safe during the job.
Have you been using a hydraulic casing tool for awhile, and you're trying to find something that will be much smoother and easier to operate? If so, you'll definitely want to consider the DWCRT for your next project. Our tools for casing and drilling are mechanical. Not only does this provide you with easier operation and maintenance, but you'll also be able to manipulate it with ease. Circulation, rotation, and reciprocation are all much easier when you have a mechanically operated CRT.
Casing tools that help with your drilling operations
Our tools are some of the safest and most reliable pieces of hardware on the market today. We understand that it's important for you to be able to get to the bottom of the rig floor consistently and safely. Cementing or pipe operation jobs can be very sensitive, and nobody wants to deal with unnecessary interruptions or hiccups when navigating these tough waters. With this in mind, make sure you take time to survey your potential tools and make the best decision for your team and projects.
A modular design is extremely important when looking for tools for drilling and casing. Oil rigs are already complicated and messy as is, and utilizing machinery that requires a lot of different parts and components that make things even more complex for you. Using a modular tool for casing and running like the DWCRT and make your job much easier. This simple and straightforward design will help you cut down on operation and maintenance problems. In addition to this, you'll also be able to use it interchangeably with different sizes of casings.
Are you used to having to purchase bails, elevators, tongs, and other components along with your running and casing tools? If so, you're going to love the DWCRT. All of these parts have been integrated, so there is no need for you to purchase additional attachments. Keeping operating costs low is our priority, and we're always ready to help our customers find solutions to their problems.
Efficient casing running tools that save you time and money
If you're trying to complete jobs quicker and minimize the need for multiple workers at one station, this is a great tool for you to have. In many cases, the DWCRT is able to remove the need of four different workers and tools. You'll only need one person to operate this tool, and you'll be able to free up your manpower to tackle other responsibilities during the workday.
Our pipe handling system is another very valuable tool that you might need. When embarking on a mission to improve workplace safety in your rigs, it's important to make sure that you do your best to remove the need for a stabber. While effective in some circumstances, this is a very hazardous component that can cause serious injuries. The DWPHS enhances your tubular running safety by removing the requirement for this component. Operated by a single technician, you can count on this to make your rig floor much safer, smoother, and more efficient.
Casing running tools are extremely important, but that's now all DrawWorks can provide you with. We understand that there is a lot more to oilfield technology than just this device. We want our customers to be fully prepared before they embark on their next projects. Are you trying to find a new flush mounted spider for your rig? Maybe you've been looking for a compensating alignment tool to go with your tools for drilling and casing. With over thirty patented products, we're confident that you'll be able to find what you need in our lineup.
Call DrawWorks to learn more about our casing running tools!
However, we also realize that not every customer will be able to get what they want from a pre-existing inventory. Have you been weighing your options and analyzing your current job, and you're convinced you need something better? If you're looking for custom made equipment that's tailor-made to your needs, our team can help you. We have plenty of experience designing and manufacturing customized tools for our customers. Let us know if you need something that you don't see in our inventory; we can help your ideal tool come to life.
With over fifty years of experience in this field, we have a proven track record of innovation and quality products. Texas A&M University recently recognized us as one of the fastest-growing companies currently funded or managed by a graduate of the school. Furthermore, our patented products are some of the most innovative and cutting edge pieces of equipment on the market today. These are only a few of the reasons we believe we stand out from the rest, and we're always trying to improve.
When you need an efficient and innovative casing tool for your next drilling project, lean on DrawWorks for the best service in Texas. Our team of engineers and designers are ready to help you with your next casing and drilling projects. Reach out to our professionals today to learn more about what we have to offer you.

To pick up on an interesting discussion that was happening earlier on this blog, I'd like to point out an interview with Alan Doss, the head of MONUC, the peacekeeping force in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), in TIME Magazine. Here are some excerpts:
What implications does the success or failure of MONUC have for other peacekeeping operations?
Every case is different. Darfur is very different. Every time a U.N. peacekeeping force deploys, it raises lots of questions. But yes, there are issues raised by our experience that will have a long-term effect. There is a very fine line between peacekeeping and peace enforcement. Our mission was equipped for peacekeeping. And as one of my officers says, you don't go to war in blue helmets and white tanks. When we shift from a monitoring group to one that takes on military elements, we have to change the way we operate…But I think that one should not forget that there have been a lot of achievements. Three to four years ago, the country was dividing into three parts. That was overcome. Most of the country now has peace. This is a country that is literally back from the dead. There is progress…
One important point to take from this statement is the fact that peacekeeping has to be adapted to every scenario. There are distinctions to be made between peacekeeping – the monitoring of a peace agreement; peace enforcement – the enforcing of a peace agreement through force; and peace making – the imposition of peace through the use of force. It is generally agreed that the UN is only capable of peacekeeping because of its lack of resources, confused command structure, inability to make quick decisions, and other challenges. Peacekeeping, however, in its traditional form is meant to be a symbolic protection force more than anything else – a way to overcome the security dilemma whereby neither side will disarm for fear that the other side will not disarm. They deployed to countries that have recently had a peace agreement and allow the rival factions to disarm without losing face while also holding them to their agreements. A more recent version of traditional peacekeepers, like those in Congo or Darfur, are able to use violence to protect civilians or themselves but are still not meant to be actual "peace enforcers". The fact that peacekeeping works in certain scenarios is evident in the progress that has been made in other parts of the Congo.
But what happens when a peace agreement doesn't hold and complex violence breaks out as in Darfur or Congo? There is still no real agreement on what is to be done when the situation is not amenable to peacekeeping. The peacekeepers surely can't start attacking government troops who are committing atrocities because they will be attacked or kicked out of the country. Furthermore, as we've all heard in both Darfur and Congo, they don't have enough troops or resources to effectively "wage war" against violent elements that may be targeting or attacking civilians.
Unfortunately, I don't know how to make peacekeepers better. When it comes down to it, people need to start discussing the practicalities of these scenarios. How do you adapt different mandates to different environments? Is peace enforcement by the UN possible or even desirable? What is clear is that peacekeepers on their own are not able to be the "solution" to a civil war, whether in Darfur or Congo.
I'll end this post with Mr. Doss's quote about R2P, which I think supports this discussion nicely.
The Responsibility to Protect [or R2P, a concept of humanitarian intervention] was only adopted by the U.N. in 2005. How much is MONUC feeling its way here? Is MONUC an experiment?
R2P is a huge step forward … But the question remains: How do we actually do it? We have come up against the sharp end of R2P. We can claim that responsibility, but actually doing that in North Kivu, with a collapsing army, a resurgence of ethnic groups — well, that raises fundamental questions. When we make these statements, we have to be careful that we have the means to match our mandate.

A recent phone conversation:
Mom: How do I play a DVD?
Me: Did you put it in? What's on the screen?
Mom: A TV channel.
Me: Change to channel three.
Mom: Okay, I see "Play movie" and other stuff now.
Me: Good. Press "Play" or "Enter" on the remote.
Mom: The remote has no labels. The buttons are all shaped like arrows.
Me: Press the one that looks like a Play button, or it could be a button bigger than others.
Mom: I'm afraid to press something in case I mess it all up.
Me: You want me to go to your house to press one button on your remote?
Mom: No. Never mind. Thanks. Bye.

Preity set for ferocious comeback
MUMBAI: Actress-businesswoman Preity Zinta, whose current legal conflict with ex-beau Ness Wadia scorched the headlines, is set to make a comeback with Neeraj Pathak's 'Bhaiyyaji', in which she plays a ferocious bandit. The film will also feature Sunny Deol as a gangster from Uttar Pradesh.
According to Pathak, Preity Zinta has pulled it off with aplomb. "Preity plays a Uttar Pradeshwali. She plays a gangster's daughter.
She's no-nonsense UP gangster and Sunny Deol's wife," he added.
Apparently Preity's transformation into a foul-mouthed rustic bandit was so convincing that Sunny wants to cast her as Sohni's Punjabi mother in the remake of 'Sohni Mahiwal', a film that the actor reportedly wants to do with his son in the lead.
Pathak said: "Preity's interpretation of the firebrand wife's character is bang-on. She will not be seen as only for urbane sophisticated roles after 'Bhaiyyaji'.
We've 12 days' shooting left. We will complete the shooting post-monsoon," said the director.
In the past Preity had worked with both Sunny and Bobby in 'The Hero: Love Story Of A Spy' and 'Soldier'. Interestingly, both the films were hits.

I came across an article yesterday by Lisa Ling entitled, "Why I regret my c-section".
Articles like this always give me a funny feeling in the pit of my stomach.
I don't-can't-regret my c-sections because for me there was really was no other way.
The condition I had with Rip meant that "natural" childbirth would mean imminent death for my child. And, honestly, my first c-section didn't phase me in the least. After 6 weeks on hospital bed rest and all of the joys and tragedies that followed my body and what it did and did not go through were the least of my concerns.
When I got pregnant with Gracie shortly thereafter my extremely respected high-risk doctor told me I was not a candidate for a VBAC because the risk for uterine rupture- putting my child's life and my life in danger-was too high. Tell that to a mother who just lost her baby and I will show you a mother who signs a consent form faster that you can get a pen uncapped.
It wasn't until after my c-section with Gracie that I started to have some feelings of-well, I don't really know what.
For me, "the more you know" does not turn out to be a good thing on the operating table. The second time I knew what to expect and for someone who likes to be "in control" (insert hysterical laughter here for all things pertaining to childbirth) being literally tied down to a table is fairly panic-inducing. Okay really panic-inducing.
After my healthy baby girl was born (hallelujah!), I had complications that resulted in a really gory, painful eight weeks post-partum. Let me tell you, if you want to test your partner's love for you- have an extremely nasty issue that you yourself cannot care for. That's love.
It was not fun. It was hard and scary and also for me, somewhat in perspective because I had a living, breathing child.
Ling's issue was somewhat similar, a nasty infection after the birth of her second child. She has every right to feel regret about the way she birthed her child, and to talk about it…but the thing that gets me is that at the end of her article and of so may of these c-section articles is the statistics on c-sections in this country. And she does a very good job of pointing out that some are medically necessary but there is a large rise in others that aren't and surgery is a big deal and comes with risks and shouldn't be entered into lightly. Which is all so true and I agree wholeheartedly.
But at the end of the day, the light that seems to be cast in the articles is that c-sections, even when medically necessary, are the wrong way to go. Like, sorry you had to take the losers way out.
Many articles I've read go to great pains to talk about how c-section babies have more incidents of asthma (which Gracie does have) and don't get certain bacteria passed to them at birth that are needed to help fight allergies. Basically its another breast is best argument but with much higher stakes. So yeah, I have some complicated feelings about my c-sections.
I would absolutely not choose to have a c-section if I had the choice. But I don't. Didn't. So I can't regret it. Don't. Didn't.
I've had three of them. The first allowed me 7 days with my son. I have two additional living children. I guess that's the bottom line I wish they would put in these articles.
Let's try to avoid generalizations and leave it to individuals and their medical professionals to come up with a plan. It may be complicated, but in my book any method of receiving a healthy baby is a good one.

Cheryl has collaborated with Beats by Dr. Dre on a promotional video for 'Fight On'.
The track is taken from her new album Only Human, which will be released on Monday, November 10.
The clip sees the singer discuss her time away from making music, saying: "I feel like I've really grown as a person over the past couple of years whilst I've been away."
She also says: "Even in the eye of the storm, you need moments alone to think and gather your thoughts, music helps me do that. All I want to do at the end of the day is put the music on and turn the world off."

Sandboxing security: A cure-all strategy for virtual environments?
Sandboxing is a limited technology. Expert Brad Casey explores the margins and supplemental products organizations can use in virtual environments.
Brad, I know you've been an advocate for using virtualization/sandboxing to detect malware, but I've seen other security analysts say that sandboxing is limited because of the inability to cover all platforms and targeted attacks. Would you agree with this assessment? What would you say the limitations to virtualized environments are from a security perspective, and how should they be supplemented?
Ask the expert

I would certainly agree with this assessment. While I am a big fan of offloading packets that contain executables to a separate device, executing them, and testing for malicious code, I am not fond of utilizing this solely. Much like your investment portfolio, your security strategy should be diversified, namely via a network security defense-in-depth paradigm.
In terms of limitations, many of these concepts have to do with application sandboxes that execute files on the same box on which the sandbox resides, which is a little different than my offloading scenario mentioned above. There are some profound limitations with application sandboxing. Many -- if not all -- of these limitations are directly related to inherent weaknesses existing within the underlying operating system.
A number of recent kernel-sidestepping scenarios are directly related to weaknesses in the Windows kernel. Perhaps the most infamous of these kernel exploits is a piece of malware known as Duqu. In a nutshell, Duqu exploits a characteristic in Microsoft Word that requires the Word application to make a call to the kernel and manipulate the underlying font engine. Admittedly, kernel exploits require a unique degree of sophistication to write, but they are nonetheless a threat to be monitored.
With regard to sandbox supplementation, I suggest pairing strict access control lists at the firewall with some sort of deep packet inspection mechanism. While sandboxing may have limitations, it can still run executables and look for callouts within the code. If the callouts are known to be malicious, your sandboxing efforts are not for nothing, and you can subsequently use this information as a means of discarding the accompanying packet.
