I am back! Back to blogging and back in the good ol' U.S. of A!
Hubby and I took a trip to Cancun, Mexico last week and we had a wonderfully relaxing time. It didn't take long to de-stress and enjoy the beach, the sunshine, and the laid back lifestyle.
It was just what we needed with hubby having been gone for the better part of the year since Christmas. It was good for us to unplug and spend some quality time together as a couple.
I plan to do a longer post with lots of pictures, but I've got a busy week ahead of me, so the longer post will have to wait for a while. I will try to check in every day this week though!
Here is a photo of hubby and me on the last evening of our vacation. Such a beautiful place!

Additionally, both GMs have adopted a policy wherein a single missing vote slows, delays or makes an action less successful (or endangers the party). But we've gone away from "squad x fails due to lack of votes" unless more than one people fail to vote. It's been like this for a while, now, and you'll note that at least some information or event is shown instead of a complete block like I did in the beginning.
Got an addendum question after reading this. More as clarification then anything else.
I know rejects have a negative impact and supports a positive, but what is the impact of abstains of an action? The same as no vote, that the action will be slowed or stalled by the disagreeing member?

Cartographical Debut of 'Virginia' Being Offered at Swann
- NEW YORK, New York
- /
- November 16, 2017
Important cartographical milestones abound in Swann Galleries' auction of Maps & Atlases, Natural History & Color Plate Books on Tuesday, December 5. The sale promises to be one of the best the department has ever offered, with the estimated total exceeding $1,000,000.
Richard Hakluyt's 1587 map of the New World, Novus Orbis, is the first to use the designations "Virginea" and "Nuevo Mexico." The map, valued at $40,000 to $60,000, is not known to have appeared at auction since 1917. It is one of a selection of duplicates from the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation Collection, originating in the William C. Wooldridge Map Collection, which was generously donated by the Virginia Cartographical Society in 2017. All proceeds from the sale of these lots will be used to support this important acquisition and the collections at Colonial Williamsburg.
Leading the sale is the 1810 edition of John Norman's scarce The American Pilot, with 11 spectacular folding charts. This monumental atlas signaled the end of British supremacy over U.S. waters, providing an accurate and comprehensive representation of the coastline. Rarely offered complete, it is estimated at $80,000 to $120,000.
Additional atlases include a bound copy of Giovanni Battista Nicolosi's 1671 Hercules Siculus sive Studium Geographicum ($10,000 to $15,000), and Claudius Ptolemaeus's Geographicae Enarrationis Libri Octo, 1525, with 50 woodcut maps, comprised of 27 ancient representations according to Ptolemy, and 23 "modern" maps, with a value of $25,000 to $35,000. Important works by Abraham Ortelius include the Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, 1584, and a superb example in full color of Parergon, 1609 ($25,000 to $35,000 and $15,000 to $25,000, respectively).
A highlight among a prodigious selection of maps is a previously unrecorded global wall map by Cornelis Danckerts, after Frederick De Wit, of which a similar copy exists at the Leiden Library. The present, larger map is expected to sell between $25,000 and $35,000. A masterwork of sixteenth-century Venetian cartography, Bolognino Zaltieri's 1566 rendering of North America in the Lafreri style is only second map to depict the mythical northwest Strait of Anian, dividing the continents of Asia and North America ($30,000 to $50,000). An important map of New England by Captain John Smith,1616, is valued at $20,000 to $30,000, while William Blaeu's Insulae Americanae in Oceano Septentionalis, 1634, is expected to bring $15,000 to $20,000.
The first map devoted to the Americas ever to appear in an atlas, the strikingly graphic woodcut Tabula Terre Nove, 1513, by Martin Waldseemüller, is in the sale with an estimate of $30,000 to $40,000. Also by Waldseemüller is Orbis Typus Universalis, 1513 ($15,000 to $25,000).
Important non-cartographical material is also available. A run of etchings by the satirist James Gillray features one of his most beloved scenes: The Plumb-Pudding in Danger, 1805, carries an estimate of $8,000 to $12,000. Manuscript material includes a seventeenth-century volume of primarily English heraldic coats of arms in ink and gouache, and an 1856 album of watercolors depicting samurai, Japanese landscapes and military fortifications ($2,000 to $3,000 and $1,500 to $2,500, respectively). Called "the finest set of fish engravings printed in America in the nineteenth century," Samuel A. Kilbourne and George Brown Goode's Game Fishes of the United States, 1879, with 20 mounted chromolithographed plates, is notable for its active and life-like depictions of North American fish species ($10,000 to $15,000). Other natural history plates in the sale primarily depict birds, with numerous examples by John James Audubon and Louis Agassiz Fuertes.
The oldest item in the sale is double-page Ptolemaic map of the world from Hartmann Schedel's Liber Chronicarum, more popularly known as the Nuremberg Chronicle. Printed in 1493, the map is one of the last representations of the known globe before Christopher Columbus's journey to the Americas. The map is flanked by examples of oddities, including a snake-necked man ($6,000 to $9,000).

To complement its new book published in May 2017, Mixtapes (French only), Fake For Real is sharing its own selection of mixtapes. Focusing exclusively on Northern American hip-hop, and on projects released in the 2000's and 2010's (i.e. not in a time when mixtapes were, well, actual mix-tapes), these 100 records are not the same as those listed in the book. Quality prevailed here, over representativeness.
FEMALE RAP - 100 albums
It's never been easy for a woman to find her way into the rap game. First, she had to fight hard to become an equal to the frequently sexist male rappers. And then, she had to deal with her rivals; the audience, or the industry, curiously, always wanted just one female star per generation. And then, once all of this is achieved, any female rapper needed to position herself against the many stereotypes about her kind. She had to decide if she was a tomboy, or a bad bitch, or an R&B sentimentalist. Despite these many obstacles, however, many made it. Females matter, in hip-hop, as demonstrated by our selection of outstanding projects.
INDIE HIP-HOP - 150 albums
A few years after we published it, and to celebrate the release in 2014 of our new book dedicated to the history of indie hip-hop, it was time to deliver an updated version of the selection we published first in 2009, listing 100 key albums related to this movement. Here starts our new countdown, extended now to 150 records.
INDIE HIP-HOP - Your favorite albums
We are close to the end. The last albums Fake For Real considers as the best from the independent hip-hop movement, will be revealed soon on our dedicated article, and we will publish soon, in May 2014, a full book dedicated to this matter (in French only, unfortunately). In the meanwhile, we are offering to YOU, our readers, the possibility to nominate your 10 indie rap favorite albums, as part of a poll whose results will be published in a few weeks or months.
INDIE HIP-HOP - More albums
Where is this classic album? Why aren't you listing such or such rapper? These are some of the questions asked to us, after we started publishing our top 150 indie rap albums list. The reasons why those are missing are obvious: we didn't have enough space to mention everything, we needed to make choices. However, to ensure that we are as complete as possible, this list will be completed by a second, mentioning records which do not qualify to the first, but deserve to be known. As for the other, this list will be completed, updated and enriched over time.

LAUDERDALE COUNTY, Ala. (WHNT) – A Shoals man has been charged with 32 counts of animal cruelty.
Investigators say they found 16 dead horses on his property and another 16 barely alive. Of those, two had to be put down.

Prosecutors say someone reported the animals' condition to the Lauderdale County District Attorney's Office on Friday. The animals were found on a farm off County Road 81 near the Central community.
White was arrested Monday and booked in the Lauderdale County Detention Center.
WHNT News 19 is working to get more information on this story.

This fall, 13-year-old WoodstockArts is looking to fulfill its mission "to shine a light on Woodstock, N.Y.," with a book on the life and work of Maud and Miska Petersham, leading picture book illustrators of the 1920s through the '50s – and the area's best-known husband-wife writing and illustrating team. Under the North Light (Nov.), WoodstockArts' third book since its founding, was written by librarian and nonprofit consultant Lawrence Webster, who grew up in Woodstock during the '50s and '60s and knew the Petershams well. She worked with their granddaughter, Mary Petersham Rheinhard, who donated a number of photos and artwork from the walls of her home, and a few stored under her bed, for an accompanying exhibition at the Woodstock Artists Association and Museum, "Inspired by the Light" (which runs through December 31).
The Petershams were also inspired by Miki, the son who served as the basis for their first book, Miki (1929), which Anita Silvey, writing in The Essential Guide to Children's Books, calls "the first big colored picture book." It follows the story of a little boy who travels to Hungary by himself and was also the first picture book set in a foreign land. The following decade was the pair's most prolific one: during the 1930s, the Petershams published nearly 50 picture books, including the Story Book Series of 25 books on subjects ranging from coal to cotton, houses, and trains. They also illustrated religious books like The Ark of Father Noah and Mother Noah (1930) and The Christ Child (1931). A decade later, in 1946, they won the Caldecott Award for a book of rhymes and jingles, The Rooster Crows.
In a foreword to Under the North Light, husband-and-wife team Philip and Erin Stead, winners of a 2011 Caldecott for A Sick Day for Amos McGee, write that "this tale of Maud and Miska Petersham's life together sheds light on the powerful and complicated art of intimate collaboration." Thomas Hill, art librarian at Vassar College, Maud Petersham's alma mater, calls it "a must for all who are interested in the evolution of children's book publishing in this country."
As for WoodstockArts, it is supporting the book, which is filled with four-color reproductions of the Petershams' illustrations, with a sizable first printing for a small press. Publisher Weston Blelock says that he is exploring the possibility of moving the Petersham exhibit to other venues, including the de Grummond Children's Literature Collection at the University of Southern Mississippi, which holds many of the Petershams' papers. As for the publishing house itself, he says, "We've gone very slowly. We're building up speed." The press has several projects in the works, including a biography of Norman Studer, one of the founders of Camp Woodland, where Pete Seeger honed his talent along with other musicians.

The "Year of Darwin" is fast approaching. Evolutionists are gearing up for major Darwin celebrations and a major push on Darwinian evolution like never before as we approach the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of Darwin's major book On the Origin of Species.
We will be telling much more about the "Year of Darwin" over the next several months. However, I wanted to bring to your attention that AiG has put together two very special "Answers For Darwin" conferences for 2009, conveniently located for many of our supporters on both coasts—and . . . they are free. These conferences will equip Christians and challenge non-Christians.
You can find out all the relevant information from AiG's special Answers for Darwin website. Write the dates down in your calendar and consider attending these two powerful conferences that will deal with the real foundational problems in this nation—the spiritual problems that have led to the collapse of once Christian America.
"Must-visit" ExperienceMore and more visitors from other parts of the world are coming to the Creation Museum. Here is a report from an excited couple who visited from the U.K. recently:
My wife and I have just returned to our home . . . in the UK from a holiday in the USA during which we travelled from Vermont to Florida and many points in between. However, the highlight of our trip was a visit to the Creation Museum in Kentucky on 29/30 October . . . .
Barbara and I had been planning a visit to the USA as part of our retirement/40th-wedding-anniversary celebrations for some time, and when Ken Ham visited our church with the Answers in Genesis team several years ago and mentioned the building of a Creation Museum, we took note and decided to include it in our tour . . . .
We were so impressed with all the exhibits, the professional way in which everything was done, the delicious food at Noah's Café and, most importantly the way the Gospel was so accurately presented woven in to the 6-day-creation account. Not only that but the fast maturing grounds were a delight to walk around with waterfalls and lake . . . .
What we hadn't planned for was being able to meet Ken Ham and Buddy, whom, of course, we had met in the UK before, so this was a pleasant surprise. . . . The staff were all so friendly and the bookshop very inviting. . . . All in all we had a fantastic day, relaying this "must-visit" experience to our hotel receptionist at the Holiday Inn Express in nearby Lawrenceburg, which was excellent and an easy drive for those of us who drive on the "wrong" side of the road. . . .
Many thanks indeed, and we look forward to paying another visit perhaps with our grandchildren in a few years time. Oh that such a museum could be built in the UK.
U.K. Residents—BewareOne of the most spectacular, evolutionary, intensely agenda-driven productions to ardently indoctrinate children in Darwinian evolution is on its way to the United Kingdom. The Mail Online reports:
T-rex comes to town: Stunning £10m [$20 million US] show with life-size dinosaurs stomps towards BritainMark Looy and I attended a Walking with Dinosaurs program in the USA recently, and we wrote a detailed web article to warn people that this is not just some entertainment with a few evolutionary statements—this is a deliberate attempt to indoctrinate children to believe they are just animals in the Darwinian evolution of life. Here is a link to the article we wrote recently:
Dinosaurs are roaming the earth once again—in a spectacular £10million show set to conquer these shores next summer. Based on the award-winning BBC TV series Walking With Dinosaurs, The Arena Spectacular has won widespread acclaim during two sell-out tours in Australia and America and promises to be one of the most groundbreaking shows ever seen in Britain.
Only OneThanks for stopping by and thanks for praying
(Hosea 13:4) Yet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no saviour beside me.
It took a Great Savior to deliver captive Israel from Egypt, and it takes a Great Savior to deliver us from the judgment for our sins—He is the Lord Jesus Christ.

Garfield County opts into statewide C-PACE
On Nov. 7, 2016, the Garfield County Commissioners voted 2-1 to opt in to Colorado's Commercial Property-Assessed Clean Energy Financing program,
Garfield joins eight other counties to make PACE financing available for commercial property owners.
Active C-PACE counties
Clear Creek
The commissioners acted in response to a request from Garfield Clean Energy, CLEER, and energy efficiency and renewable energy businesses to opt in to the statewide program, which was launched in December 2015.
C-PACE will benefit commercial property owners by offering affordable financing for energy and water efficiency upgrades and for renewable energy systems. Bringing C-PACE to the county will also boost economic activity by driving new business to contractors and suppliers.
CLEER is working with C-PACE officials to organize a local workshop to train contractors on use of the financing tool. The workshop will likely be held in early 2017.
C-PACE also opens up a new lending opportunity for banks by using an open source funding model that allows any qualified capital provider to fund eligible projects.
Commercial and industrial properties may borrow from C-PACE, as may farms, ranches and multi-family residential properties with five or more units. Facilities owned by nonprofits, such as hospitals, clinics and resource centers, are also eligible.
Borrowers carry out projects, which must meet specific requirements to be eligible for financing. The debt is repaid as part of that property's annual property tax bill over a term of up to 20 years.
Efficiency and renewable energy projects are designed so that utility cost savings will equal or exceed the annual debt payment. An independent third party must confirm the expected energy or water savings and the related cost savings, providing added assurance to property owners.
Garfield County will collect a servicing fee of 1 percent of the annual payment amount to cover its costs for processing the payment, and the C-PACE program collects a one time, 2.5 percent fee to cover its own operating costs.
In-depth information on C-PACE is available on the program's website, copace.com .
Colorado's New Energy Improvement District launches statewide commercial PACE program
C-PACE offers property owners a new tool to finance energy efficiency, water conservation, renewable energy projects
Colorado Energy Office news release
Dec. 1, 2015
Today the New Energy Improvement District launches a statewide commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) program - providing commercial property owners a unique mechanism to finance energy efficiency, renewable energy, and water-conservation improvements.
The C-PACE program offers commercial property owners the opportunity to spread energy and water project costs over a term of up to 20 years, and repay them through an assessment on their property tax bill, with no upfront capital outlay.
"Commercial buildings currently account for about 20% of Colorado's energy use. Colorado's commercial PACE program offers a financial tool to help spur energy efficiency and renewable energy investments in our state's building infrastructure, providing long-term utility savings, while stimulating the economy," said Paul Scharfenberger, chairman of the New Energy Improvement District board.
The program provides financing for a variety of improvements, including new heating or cooling systems, lighting, water pumps, insulation, solar panels and other renewable energy projects.
Typical long term C-PACE financing covers 100% of a project's cost and is repaid, for up to 20 years, in semi-annual payments that are structured as a regular line item on the property tax bill. When a property is sold thePACE assessment stays with the property and transfers to the new owner who, in turn, enjoys the ongoing utility cost-savings associated with the project.
Sustainable Real Estate Solutions (SRS) was competitively selected as the Colorado C-PACE administrator and will oversee an open, competitive lending model that makes it possible for a wide variety of capital providers to participate. All projects will be financed entirely with private funds, allowing local lenders, national banks, andPACE capital providers an opportunity to finance projects.
"C-PACE provides commercial and industrial building owners with an attractive way to finance capital intensive building modernization projects. The resulting energy savings typically outweigh the annual assessment payment thereby enabling cash flow positive projects," said Brian J. McCarter, CEO of SRS, administrator for the Colorado C-PACE program.
Eligible properties include office buildings, hotels, retail, agricultural, non-profits, industrial buildings and multi-family properties - with five or more units. Projects must be located in counties that have opted to participate in the program. Boulder County has opted-in, and several other counties around the state already have indicated that they plan to participate.
For more information or to apply for C-PACE financing, visit the Colorado C-PACE website at www.COPACE.com.

Third-generation CEO Elie Bernheim continues Raymond Weil's tradition of excellence.
Did you know from a young age that you wanted to be involved in the family business?
My father always reminds me that I was 10 years old when I came to him after a long trip, and I asked, "Okay, what's going on with our Swedish distributor? I remember you told me that you had some financial issues…" He was thinking "Oh my, my son is too young for that kind of thing," but I always knew that one day I would join the company. I took my first position when I was 25, as a salesman in the German market. We had a car and we took our sales rack from store to store for weeks at a time.
When did you receive your first watch?
It was a gift from my father. I was probably seven years old and at the time this watch was a big hit. I recently wore the first watch my grandfather bought for me in 1992. It's a Parsifal which has been in the collection for more than 20 years. We have a family museum and I probably have between one and three pieces of each reference in house. It's nice to get some inspiration from what my grandfather created.
What is it like to follow in his footsteps, and now to work alongside your father and brother?
My brother Pierre is in charge of our second company, 88 Rue du Rhone, which we launched two years ago. His office is right near mine and we see each other all the time, but it was important for each of us to have our own responsibilities.
My father has not officially retired. He still comes into the office for several hours a day, but he's a happy man now. He's enjoying being a grandfather and spending time with my children. At the same he still oversees our Asian markets and is a fantastic advisor when I need his support. It is a privilege to work with him.
As the youngest CEO of a Geneva-based watch brand, how do you think your fresh perspective can be an advantage?
Being the youngest is great, but being surrounded by a strong team is more important. There will always be people who say "You're too young." But I have big ambition and a vision for the brand, and I'm sure that our customers can feel that passion. Hopefully it will get them excited too. Being young is also a good thing when it comes to the hectic travel schedule this job requires. It's important for me to meet all our retail and supply partners to show them how much we appreciate them and how much I need their support. Showing that we are behind them and we are doing everything we can to support them is the most important part of my job today.
What legacy do you hope to leave behind?
There is a French proverb that says the first generation builds the company, the second expands the company and the third (most of the time) destroys what the first two generations have built. I'm just hoping everyday that I will not be an example of this, that my team and I will bring Raymond Weil to a higher level. If I put this pressure on myself it is only because I see a huge potential for our brand to grow around the world, particularly in the States. This is my plan for the future.
My children are three and one so it's too early to tell if they will develop an interest, but I definitely hope to keep Raymond Weil as a family business. It's tradition. It's a privilege for a father to work with his children, and if I could do that I would be so happy.

Before and afters - front and back
I have really enjoyed refashion runway and The the refashioners 2015. These talented sewers are so inspirational, who could resist sewing along?
I took this pretty standard men's shirt and flipped it 90 degrees so the sides became the front and back - I'm not particularly recommending this, it was fiddly and took ages, but I'm happy with the end result.
I used the shirt collar for a neckline with and added contrast trim.
I also re-used the pockets to make one central pocket
I'm planning for this to be my men's shirt refashion entry, there are more details of the process here

I would prefer not to see (much less taste) another orange drink for a long, long, long, long time. I failed my one hour glucose test (to test for gestational diabetes) two weeks ago, so today I had to do the three hour test. Twice as much of the nasty, orange liquid and three hours of sitting in the waiting room… all on an empty stomach. I passed this time… just by the hair on my chinny chin chin. So, I plan to take the safe approach and continue with the recommended Gestational Diabetes test just to make sure baby isn't harmed in any way, but I don't have to prick fingers and monitor blood so that's a positive.
This pregnancy has been a good bit different than mine with L. I was sick, sick, sick for 19 weeks this time, then all this stuff with the blood sugar and this kiddo moves non-stop. I promise you I don't go 5 minutes without this kid moving. {Makes me a little worried about what that means personality wise 🙂 Ha!} Maybe that means a boy?!? Or maybe it just means a little spit-fire girl?!? I can't wait to find out. 11 more weeks {or less!} until baby arrives and we find out! So, so, so glad we waited to find out the gender again. It was, without a doubt, the very best moment of L's arrival and I'm sure it will be this time too.
But please, no more orange drinks! 🙂

We are going to start with the passive scan rules (release and beta quality).
These are all defined in the zap-extensions src packages:
- org.zaproxy.zap.extension.pscanrules (master branch)
- org.zaproxy.zap.extension.pscanrulesBeta (beta branch)
For details of how passive scan rules work see the blog post: Hacking ZAP #3 Passive Scan Rules
We have raised issues for all of the release and beta quality passive scan rules that do not have unit tests, and assigned a bounty on them in Bounty Source. The bounties vary based on the amount of work we expect will be required. We will increase the bounties paid if the pull request (PR) include fixes for false positives or false negatives.
The open bounties can all be seen on the Bounty Source page
We plan to extend the bounties to cover active scan rules in the future. We expect the bounties to typically be higher than for the passive scan rules due to the added complexity.
We will pay out these bounties only when we have merged a PR that has an associated bounty. The PRs must test all of the associated rule functionality and must conform to our Development Rules and Guidelines. Also see CONTRIBUTING.md
We will work with submitters to help them improve any non-conforming PRs so that they meet our standards. We will also give the first person who submits a nearly conforming PR a reasonable time (eg 2 weeks) to reach the required standard rather than immediately accepting another later PR from someone else that does conform.
We will not reserve issues in advance, nor will we reserve an issue based on an inadequate PR.
You will see that the bounties are not huge. In our defence there are quite a few of them, implementing them should not take too much work and in any case we are an open source project with no revenue stream other than donations!
We also have plans to expand this program to other aspects of ZAP. If you would be interested in sponsoring such plans then please get in touch, or you can just donate money directly to the ZAP project via the Bounty Source page or via the 'Donate' Paypal button on https://www.owasp.org/index.php/ZAP. You can also donate money to ZAP when you join or renew your OWASP membership.
Do let us know if you are explicitly sponsoring this initiative so that we can give you the public credit you deserve :)

Internet Marketing August 10th, 2007
No one can argue that online media is evolving, and that on the web, the lines between marketing and PR programs have become blurred. Until advancements in online marketing, companies have never been able to reach a potential audience in the millions without buying into expensive advertising campaigns.
Industry leaders agree that advertising to people in a one way relationship is not as successful as interactive messaging in which the consumer can actually interact in the sales experience.
It has never been more important to stress the need for companies to think about getting involved in consumer driven social networking, a method of networking that is proving how marketing and PR on the web can effectively develop direct relationships with clients — and for the most part, in a far more inexpensive method then traditional marketing.
Social Networking is all about customization and interactivity, to use the web to educate and engage people with valuable and authentic information. With blogs and online press releases you can communicate directly with your audience bypassing traditional roadblocks.
To be successful at this, you will need to write content that highlights expert ideas, and can be found in news search engines (such as google news) and vertical content sites. Well written targeted content, will also help elevate your company into a position of importance, enabling you to gain credibility and loyalty with clients.
In addition, well organized content leads your clients through a sales process all the way to the point where they are ready to make a purchase or commitment. From an SEO stand point, each blog post and forum comment turns into search engine marketing food that will drive more traffic to your site.
Thanks to search engine's, blogs can be the most vital and effective way for people to find your company. People will look for information you blog about, and there are even blog focused search engines, such as Google Blog, and Technorati. The ROI of blogging can create huge returns for anyone who creates an interesting blog and posts regularly.
We all know that in any market category potential customers look online to conduct initial research. This is an opportunity for your company to deliver a targeted message at the precise moment your customers are looking for it.
In the past traditional marketing strategies have failed to recognize the potential of there websites, and the online market in general. Don't let your marketing strategy do the same, start blogging your way to success.
2 Comments
Yes, blogging and social networking have become the new mantra for public relations. Today, not just businesses but even celebrities take to blogging seriously. And almost every one of them have a Facebook profile too. And search engines are also giving real importance to blogs. Try any keyword search and you will see that out of top 10 majority of the top results go to blogs.

Auto parts maker Johnson Controls is stepping away from its position as the debtor-in-possession lender during the bankruptcy process for battery maker A123 Systems in order to prevent delays.
The company is avoiding a premature legal tussle with Chinese auto parts maker Wanxiang Group Corp (萬向集團), which is challenging Johnson Controls' role as the primary bidder for A123.
A123 Systems Inc filed for bankruptcy protection earlier this month and Johnson Controls Inc agreed to buy its automotive assets.
Johnson said on Friday that its US$125 million offer stands, and it now plans to expand the offer to include the company's government business, which involves military contracts.
Johnson, based in Milwaukee, said it also maintains its "stalking horse" position in the bankruptcy process, subject to court approval next month, over Wan-xiang or any other rivals.
The "stalking-horse bid" is the initial bid in a court-supervised auction of a business.
It allows a company selling assets under bankruptcy protection to avoid low-ball bids.
After its first day as a public company just three years ago, when investors bid up shares by 50 percent, A123 had struggled.
The company also received a US$249 million grant provided by the US Department of Energy three years ago with high hopes that it would help foster a US battery industry.
At the time, the country was far behind the world leaders, South Korea and China.
However, the technology offered by the Waltham, Massachusetts-based A123 Systems turned out to be ahead of its time.
US consumers continue to shun costly electric cars in favor of gas-powered ones.
The company has yet to post a profit and lost US$83 million in the second quarter.

I just couldn't resist posting this picture - for some reason it just cracks me up!!! (I can imagine what the other people I drove past on the highway thought) ;)
We begin VBS this week at church at have a big kick off "Round-Up" tonight complete with a cook out and some activities to go along with our theme: Saddle Ridge Ranch. I am providing a steer to rope. Well, his horns were too wide to ride inside the car so we had to improvise!
I truly enjoy VBS each year, but I'll be honest: It totally WEARS*ME*OUT!!!!
Mom and I are in charge of recreation (outside) this year and right now the heat index is over 100 degrees. Please pray we make it! Seriously!

I was admitted with a diagnosis of pneumonia which as it turns out could just as well as have been just virus. I had asked that this time my daughter not be notified due to the hour (she has to work) and I called her from the hospital after I was admitted and I knew she was up. I appreciate your honoring my wishes in this matter. Thank you for your care and concern . Lucy

We offer preventive examinations.
Call for reservation.
Together with the team of our Science Centre Hisa eksperimentov I worked as an expert in the development of an interactive tool from the area of diabetes education.
So the Sweet-o-bike was born. My patients can experience, train and learn a lot of useful "hands-on" knowledge in my clinic where Sweet-o-bike is located.
The SWEET-O_BIKE was opened in the Slovenian Science Centre Hisa eksperimentov (The House of experiments) by the Mayor of Ljubljana Mr. Zoran Jankovic. Two identical copies were produced. One is in the Science Centre and the other in my clinic.
When you sit down on the Sweat-o.bike a virtual food starts approaching you. You choose what you will eat. In order to stay on the road you have to dose the right amount of the insulin.
After the cycling you get a diagram of your training - teh "Sweet-o-gram".
The training on Sweet-o-bike became a part of regular education of the patients in my clinic.

Think I'm reading far too much Crime Fiction. We were out for a lovely drive on the Denbigh Moors this evening hoping to photograph some wildlife. Instead I was thinking what great book covers and settings the spooky old deserted cottages up there would make for Crime Fiction novels (as you do 😱)
I bet they all have an interesting history and plenty of stories. In the winter snows the roads up there are impassable, so living conditions would have been harsh, but it's a shame they're uninhabited and have been left to rot. The road is the A5, the old postal road London-Holyhead-Ireland.
Interesting article about the history of the moor

I had a lovely chat this week with a customer who had just relocated to SF from overseas. Among the many wine-related topics we discussed was the price of entry for interesting, high quality, non-mass produced California wine. I threw out the number $25, saying you could find really exceptional wines starting at this price point, but added you have to do your research to find them. I then threw out a few names of producers that offer such wines, starting off my list was Bedrock.
To illustrate my point, I pointed to Bedrock's 2015 North Coast Syrah. The North Coast Syrah is primarily made from three vineyards: Hudson, Alder Springs and Weill a Way. Hudson Ranch is located in Carneros, Alder Springs is in Mendocino, and Weill a Way is in the Sonoma Valley. The barrels of Syrah from these vineyards that did not end up in the vineyard-designated bottlings were blended together, along with some co-fermented Viognier, into the North Coast Syrah. Bear in mind, Bedrock makes three Syrahs from the Weill a Way Vineyard (highly allocated) that in 2013 received 100 points for two of them and the other 99 points from Robert Parker, Jr. Now I am not suggesting that the North Coast Syrah is any way like the Weill a Way Syrahs, but it is the same fruit. Boom!
Hudson Vineyard
For the North Coast Syrah, winemaker Morgan Twain-Peterson likes to vinify using native yeasts and some whole-cluster pressed fruit. The wine is raised in 100% French oak, but none of it is new. In his liner notes for this wine, Morgan writes "I am always channeling my favorite producers of St. Joseph and Crozes-Hermitage. I want a wine that is perfumed, spicy, peppery and delicious, something long on flavor and low on pretense." In a review by Antonio Galloni, he put it simply like this, "A huge, richly textured wine, the 2015 North Coast Syrah offers unreal quality for the money."
Alder Springs
Our limited, or in the parlance of the day, curated domestic wine section always has several offerings from Bedrock. I will gladly accept any allocation from this winery, as I've followed and admired them from their inception. The quality is there, the price is fair and Bedrock's emphasis on vineyard sites aligns with my own interest in providing TWH customers the best wine values. Check out our entire Bedrock inventory here.
The number of school days left before summer break begins are down to single digits. My little family, which includes my husband (a teacher) and my daughter (a middle-schooler) is counting down the days. I am so looking forward to sleeping in past 7:30! My natural sleep cycle does not jive with early wake-up times. But most of all, I am looking forward to welcoming spontaneity to rule the day and schedules to take a back seat. And in that space, I expect to be enjoying a glass or two of 2015 North Coast Syrah. No more pencils, no more books… – Anya Balistreri

Social outcomes in the construction industry : the case of the Western Australia 'Percent for Art' policy
Document Type
Publication details
McCabe, A, Parker, R & Brown, KA 2011, 'Social outcomes in the construction industry: the case of the Western Australian 'Percent for Art' policy', Construction Management and Economics, vol. 29, no. 9, pp. 929-941.
Published version available from:
Peer Reviewed
Social outcomes, in particular intangible social outcomes, are generally difficult to achieve in the construction industry due to the predominantly episodic, fragmented and heavily regulated nature of construction that presupposes a tendency towards mainstream construction processes and design. The Western Australian 'Percent for Art' policy is recognized for stimulating social outcomes, by creating richer and more aesthetically pleasing social environments through the incorporation of artwork into public buildings. A case study of four Percent for Art projects highlights the role of the Artwork Selection Committee in incorporating artwork into construction. A total of 20 semi-structured interviews were conducted with committee members and policy officers. Data analysis involved a combination of pattern coding and matrix categorization, and resulted in the identification of the committee's three key elements of collaborative communication, democratic decision-making and project champions. The findings suggest these key elements foster the interaction, communication and relationships needed to facilitate feedback, enhance relationships, create cross-functional teams and lower project resistance, which are all necessary to overcome constraints to social outcomes in construction. The findings provide greater insight into the mechanisms for achieving social outcomes and a basis for future discussion about the processes for achieving social outcomes in the construction industry.

Egyptian army 'ready to intervene to stop conflict'
The army in Egypt has warned it will not allow the country to descend into "uncontrollable conflict".
The comments by army chief Gen Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi came a week ahead of planned mass protests by opponents of Islamist President Mohammed Morsi.
He said the army was obliged to stop Egypt plunging into a "dark tunnel".
The remarks are seen as one of the strongest interventions since the army handed over power to President Morsi last year.
Consensus plea
At a meeting with soldiers on Sunday, Gen Sisi, who is also the country's defence minister, said the army would "not remain silent as the country slides into uncontrollable conflict".
"There is a state of division in the society, and the continuation of it is a danger to the Egyptian state.
"There must be consensus," he stressed.
Gen Sisi also met the president on Sunday for what an army spokesman described as a "routine" consultation, according to Reuters news agency.
Gen Sisi's comments come as Egypt's secular groups plan mass rallies ahead of the 30 June anniversary of President Morsi coming to power.
The groups say they have gathered 13 million signatures on a petition calling for the Islamist leader to step down.
On Friday, thousands of Mr Morsi's supporters marched across the country - in a show of support for the president.
The crowds chanted their allegiance, pre-empting the opposition demonstrations.
Mr Morsi's first year in office has been marred by constant political unrest and a sinking economy.
Many analysts say the instability and a continuing threat of violence have frightened away foreign investors and tourists.
There is increasing unemployment, particularly among the young, fuel shortages and a drain on reserves of foreign currency.

Many persons who choose to invest money in mutual funds and other types of investment strategies choose to use an automatic investment plan. Essentially, an automatic investment plan is a simply authorization to withdraw a fixed amount of money from a savings or checking account on a recurring basis. The withdrawn funds are then invested on the behalf of the shareholder or investor, either by purchasing additional shares of stocks that are already owned by the investor, or purchasing stocks for a brand new addition to the investment portfolio. Here is some background on how the automatic investment plan works, and why it can be such an easy way to build an investment portfolio.
Setting up an automatic investment plan is as simple as establishing automatic transfers for utility bills, insurance payments and other types of electronic withdrawals. After consulting with the entity that manages the investments, the investor determines an amount that can be debited from an existing checking or savings account. This amount should be funds that are not needed for usual monthly expenses, so that the investor does not find himself or herself short of available cash.
A good idea is to establish a withdrawal date that will be a few days after a typical pay date. The investor may elect to schedule more than one debit for the investment plan per month, depending on the frequency that funds are credited to the account. From there, it is a matter of supplying the investment firm with the routing number and account number for the account that will be used for the withdrawals.
Automatic investment plans work very well for many individuals. One obvious advantage is that the investor does not have to take the time to manually add funds to the investment portfolio. Since the fixed amount is deducted automatically, the value of the portfolio has the potential to increase each month. Also, since the funds are already earmarked for that purpose, the investor simply deducts the amount from the balance in the account, and focuses attention on other matters. The investment firm receives the funds and applies the additional funds to existing investment plans on behalf of the shareholder, without the need to spend a lot of time conferring with the investor about the need to buy additional shares.
With more businesses and individuals using investments as a means of building up resources for retirement plans, the concept of using an automatic investment plan has become very commonplace. As a means of creating a nice nest egg for later years, automatic investment plans help to take a lot of the guesswork out of the process, and also minimize the chance that the investor will waver on the commitment to add funds to the plan on a regular basis.
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

Seven Card Stud is the 4th game that makes up HORSE. It is a limit poker game that plays exactly like Razz, except the best 5 card poker hand wins the pot, unlike razz where the best 5 card low hand wins the pot. At Stud tables, 8 players can play at once. All betting and card formation is the same as in Razz, so there are no community cards like in No Limit Hold Em and Omaha. Like Razz, in Stud players can see 4 of the cards which make up each players hands.
This means that one huge skill in Stud is to keep track of all cards that have been seen. For example, if a player has K-K-2, but he has also seen 2 kings folded, the value of his hands goes way down. Cards that have been folded are called dead cards. Like in Razz, bets double on 5th street, so players have to make their biggest decision on 5th street. The general standard strategy is if a player calls on 5th street, he must call down until the end of the hand. This of course is due to the fact that he will be getting great pot odds on 6th street and 7th street after he calls a 5th street bet.
How to play
The best starting hand in Seven Card Stud is A-A-A. Most pairs can be played in Stud, depending on the cards that are showing which are left to act. For example, calling with a hand like 9-9-J after an ace has raised, or in Stud, "completed", is not good strategy. But completing with a 9 if nobody has completed is fine. Calling with 9-9-J is also good if a card lower than a 9 has raised, and even a 10 since he can draw to a J. Hands where the pair in concealed also adds a lot of value to a hand.
For example, a hand where the A-A is down with a 2 facing up is better than a hand where A-2 is down with one A up. So when a player raises with A-A-2, other players cannot assume he has a pair of aces and may call him with much worse hands. Good Stud strategy is to determine if the hand plays good heads up or in a multi-way pot. Hands like 8-9-10 play good multi way since they can make a straight and win a huge pot. Hands like Q-Q-10 play better heads up, since they will not improve much, if at all.

On Oct. 2, 1959, CBS broadcast the first "Twilight Zone" episode, written by the series creator Rod Serling, called "Where Is Everybody?", about a man wandering through a town in which he appears to be its only living inhabitant. (Spoiler alert! It turns out he's an astronaut who's gone slightly batty during an isolation experiment.)
Over the next five seasons and 156 episodes (92 of which were written by Serling), "The Twilight Zone" made a lasting mark on popular culture with its blend of interstellar adventure, human drama, nuclear paranoia and Serling's deader-than-deadpan narration. ("Portrait of a man at work, the only work he's ever done, the only work he knows…")
Whether you know the series by heart (and can name all four episodes that starred Burgess Meredith) or are only a casual viewer, you've probably noticed that "Twilight Zone" episodes can be more or less organized into four categories:
1. The Classic Switcheroo: The ending you get is the total opposite of the one you were anticipating.
As seen in "To Serve Man," in which a seemingly benevolent alien race would like to have us humans for dinner, and not because they think we're good conversationalists:
2. The Total Apocalypse: The entire world is destroyed, and its survivors learn that Armageddon is even worse/somehow better than they expected.
As seen in "Time Enough at Last," which taught us that if you live through a nuclear holocaust, you should remember to bring an extra pair of glasses:
3. The Inexplicably Supernatural: Something happens that could never occur in a reality governed by scientific laws, for no other reason than to mess with your head.
As seen in "It's a Good Life," which made us equally scared of jack-in-the-boxes and 7-year-old Billy Mumy:
4. The Celebrity Before He (or She) Got Famous: A future star delivers a memorable performance before reaching that career plateau where he or she no longer needs to appear on science-fiction anthology shows.
As seen in "Nothing in the Dark," which stars Robert Redford as the handsomest incarnation of Death you will likely see:
What's your favorite episode of "The Twilight Zone"? Post a comment below and let us know. (Note: anyone who mistakenly posts an episode of "The Outer Limits" will be locked in the jeopardy room with Talky Tina.)

Rehab Sales: Ask the right questions
A. As we discussed in the last article, the first steps toward providing a great solution are to clearly understand the problem that needs to be solved and to make certain that you and your customer are in agreement.
Here are the next steps for gaining acceptance of your solution. Ask these questions:
Are they aware of the solution I'm recommending? Are they informed about it? Do they like it? Do they prefer it?
Seems simple and intuitive, right? It is, but don't skip a step and assume you know the answers. To be influential, you have to genuinely be interested in and understand the responses, so ask the questions and listen.
"Are you aware of the solution I'm recommending?"
If the answer is "no" then obviously the answer to the next three questions is also "no." Make sure you're armed with shareable information: handouts, videos, website links and samples or demos.
"Do you know about the solution I'm recommending; do you have enough information?"
Simply describing the features isn't enough. Your customer is more interested in how the features will benefit them. Ask them what they know about it and answer their questions.
"What do you think about it?"
The goal here is for them to like it. If they don't like it for some reason, find out why they're skeptical. The best tools for influencing a skeptic are proof sources, examples of how this product or solution has worked in other similar situations. Present case studies and testimonials instead of just glossy product pictures.
"Do you prefer this solution over the other possibilities?"
If your customer doesn't prefer your solution, ask why and go back to the previous step. Understand their objections and discuss them. If you still can't get the desired response, you'll need to shift gears a little.
Don't forget to listen! It's a lot more important to be interested than to be interesting.
