Customer Reviews
Comments: The zipper comes undone when you sit down. This really sucks. They are great if you just stand there like a mannequin. Another fine throw away product.
From: Cory: Austin, TX 3/31/15
Comments: The zipper on the back that attaches the suspenders to the pants came unzipped on me like 5 times the first day i fished in them. for $219 you would think they would have thought this out a little more before they put it out on the market. I guess i'll just have to super glue the zipper shut. Trust me its annoying when your pants are trying to fall down when the suspenders come unzipped. I buy shimano because they make great stuff but im frustrated with these bibs.

If You Travel Alot, It's Absolutely Worth It.Not wanting to short out my 120 volt Solia flat iron (which I love), I bought this for a recent trip to Thailand. After 3 weeks of near daily use, I can say it was well worth the money. It heats up quickly and stays hot throughout the styling process. It glides over the hair and and the 2 inch plates cut my styling time in half from when I use my 1 inch Solia at home. A real joy to use. Because its a 240 volt flat iron, it can be used anywhere outside the states with a simple plug adaptor. Remember, NEVER use a 120 volt in a 220 volt plug. Youll fry your flat iron and possibly cause an electrical outage and fire. Fork up the money and buy one of the 220 volt Sedu. Its every bit as good as the Solia I use everyday here at home.Feb 2, 2008Jr / Here & There

Love It!!!This is the best hair straightener I have EVER used! I moved to Italy and needed one that is dual voltage so I changed from my normal CHI products and I LOVE the difference. I also went for the bigger width (1.5") and that makes a great difference too. Anyway, you will definitely be satisfied with this product...it works quickly and makes your hair super-soft.Thank you SEDU and Folica.com!Jan 31, 2008Allison Brundidge / Naples, Italy

Excellent IronI bought this straightner after using it numerous times at a friends house. Its just good quality hair straightner. I have long thick wavy hair, and it does a great job.

The Sedu Straightener Works Great!I purchased the Sedu flatiron to use on a trip to Paris. In the States I use a Chi and took a chance that the Sedu would work as well after reading the reviews. The Sedu worked wonderfully and I will consider buying the 110Volt version when my Chi needs to be replaced. Also, I would recommend the 1 1/2" width for long hair, it was very quick to use, much faster than a 1".Jan 25, 2008Anonymous / Houston TexasHAIR TYPELong Hair

Works Really Wellgreat straightner. I got this to use when I was in Scandinavia because I have a Chi at home in the states that wont work with a converter in Europe. I liked it almost better than the Chi. Dont get it if you dont want your hair to be completely straight though. It is flat as a board when you use it. Enjoy!Aug 15, 2007Kate

Fantastic StraightenerOn my hairdressers advice, I elected to purchase a 220V SEDU straightener for my trip to Europe instead of a converter for my North American CHI. He told me that there would be some loss of strength in the appliance once concerted, and that due to the high temperatures, I risked blowing the element. His advice couldnt have been better, and the straightener was even BETTER than my CHI. Made haircare during my trip to Paris and Sicily a breeze.Aug 1, 2007Alisa / Montreal

Works For Me!I am an international flight attendant and I have had a hard time with finding decent converter sets for my travel appliances, so I decided to bite the bullet and just buy the European versions. Actually it is the smarter thing to do anyway. I have really weird hair that is hard to control and my flat iron was a godsend. Now, I have the Sedu to use on my foreign trips and I LOVE it! It works as well, if not better, than my CHI that I use at home! It heats up quickly and evenly and stays HOT, and I dont abuse mt hair as much with it as I spend less time using it. Very happy, very satisfied.Apr 24, 2007Angela / Franklin, Tennessee

Good And Light Weightone of the attractive feature of this iron is ,light weight. As they say it smoothes hair without pulling or breaking but slowly and smoothly in small sections of hair gives the best result. AnnieQatarApr 22, 2007Annie / Qatar

Belize is situated on the Caribbean Sea, south of Mexico and east and north of Guatemala in Central America. In area, it is about the size of New Hampshire. Most of the country is heavily forested with various hardwoods. Mangrove swamps and cays along the coast give way to hills and mountains in the interior. The highest point is Victoria Peak, 3,681 ft (1,122 m).
Parliamentary democracy within the British Commonwealth.
The Mayan civilization spread into the area of Belize between 1500 B.C. and A.D. 300 and flourished until about 1200. Several major archaeological sites—notably Caracol, Lamanai, Lubaantun, Altun Ha, and Xunantunich—reflect the advanced civilization and much denser population of that period. European contact began in 1502 when Columbus sailed along the coast. The first recorded European settlement was begun by shipwrecked English seamen in 1638. Over the next 150 years, more English settlements were established. This period was also marked by piracy, indiscriminate logging, and sporadic attacks by Indians and neighboring Spanish settlements. Both Spain and Britain lay claim to the land until Britain defeated the Spanish in the battle of St. George's Cay (1798). It became a colony of Great Britain in 1840, known as British Honduras, and a Crown colony in 1862. Full internal self-government was granted in Jan. 1964. In 1973, the country changed its name to Belize.
Belize became independent on Sept. 21, 1981. But Guatemala, which had made claims on the territory since the 1800s, refused to recognize it. British troops remained in the country to defend it. Although the dispute between Guatemala and Great Britain remained unresolved, Guatemala recognized Belize's sovereignty in Sept. 1991. Guatemala, however, still claims more than half of Belize's territory.
Prime Minister Said Musa was reelected to a second term in 2003. Musa promised to improve conditions to the largely underdeveloped, southern part of Belize.

OK. Try to be brief. I have been breast feeding for four years straight, tandem, triandem, during pregnancy, with & without milk. I am currently BFing DD, 3 & DS2, 8 months & I am four months pregnant, & it is all I can do to keep BFing DS2 & DD is still in need of BFing but I feel I cannot do it anymore for her sake & mine. I am getting resentful & it is very painful & makes me feel sick when she nurses. She was BFing 2-6 times a day & now I have limited 1-2 but still feel I cannot handle it anymore. I feel extremely guilty about it & am in tears as I write this. I know DD really loves BFing, she was attached pretty much all the time for first year of her life. When I do not BFed her she chews on things or her fingers. This worries me & I was wondering if I could give her a bottle, of other drink of course, & hold her as if nursing her? Or would this be a bad habit to start with her since she is 3? She has never had a bottle before. But my heart is telling me this might be best option for preserving our BFing attachment until she is ready to totally wean without actually BFing her. She gets depressed when I do not nurse her & I feel horrible & she will not except anything else, like cuddling, etc. Any thoughts on this matter would be much appreciated. Also any encouragement would be great as well.

Naomi- Leader API of Frederick MD

I do think you should wean her if you are starting to feel resentful but doubt a liquid in an artificial (and unfamiliar) container combined with sucking is really the answer. She will be upset as she loses something she loves and something she has together with you. She will feel strong emotions of loss and change, and although it is your job to comfort and connect with her, it is not your job to always provide what she wants at any cost.
Of course it would be ideal to let all children self wean, but you have your need for balance and your other two to think of also.
She is older so can understand limits and boundaries better than a younger child.... but I know that still does not make it a pleasant experience from her perspective.
Think of things that do provide her with comfort and mommy attention that are without nursing. Up those things while telling her you will nurse her X times today......and each day lesson it. <any number of gentle weaning process enter here________ but she is older and can count, understand before lunch or after dinner descriptions etc...>
Always adknowledge her feelings, validate them, let her know she is still important regardless of nursing or not. Stay on track and slowly have one less nurser but still a great little 3yr old.

Nicole, Co-Leader of Cherished Children API and Mom to 3 boys: Simon (5), Quinn (3) and Kieran (3/08)
I had one kid who would accept a sippy cup of milk in place of BFing to night wean - and one kid who would have nothing to do with it! I think it's worth trying at least. If you try and it doesn't work what have you lost?
When we night-weaned we were more successful when my DH took over the soothing. My ODS would take a sippy of milk and Daddy cuddles in place of nursing and my MDS could be soothed by Dad even w/out the milk. It was too hard for me to be right there with what they want and not be able to have it so I had to remove myself from the equation.
I completely hear you - I weaned my oldest when I was tandem nursing my older 2 and was pregnant w/ my 3rd. I could not stand it! I can't imagine BFing 3 and being pregnant. You go, mama!
When I weaned my oldest I got busy at times when he would normally nurse. I'd put him down, cuddle him, kiss him and tell him I'd be right back and 9 times out of 10 he'd fall asleep. Or I'd get right up in the morning so our routine of BFing first thing was broken. He went from BFing 3x a day to forgetting to ask pretty quickly. When he did ask, if I could stand it I let him but mostly I couldn't so I put him off. I promised him again and again that as soon as I had milk he could nurse again.
He was 4.5 so he was ready and just needed that extra push. And, as you so well know, I couldn't handle it anymore so I really needed to push. He still asks to nurse a year later, and I do let him on occasion, so I don't think weaning is really a black and white thing.
So bottom line is try some things and see where you go. It was too hard on my kids to have me there and not be able to nurse so I had to temporarily separate myself in order to wean. Can you get Dad to step in and fill some of her needs while you transition into the next phase?
On another note, I hear your guilt and I want to absolve you from it. Guilt really adds nothing to parenting, it just makes you feel awful. Feeling guilty is not helping your daughter and may, in fact, be making this harder for her as she picks up on your bad feelings about this. So give yourself a break and be kind to yourself. Let your guilt go. Move forward positively and do what you need to do to meet everyone's needs the best you can. That's all any of us can do! You have given your daughter a tremendous gift. Acknowledge that, celebrate that and realize that you are just one Mommy and you can't be everything to everyone!
Best of luck to you! You're doing a huge thing here! Please let us know how things turn out!Last edited by NicoleL; 11-07-2008, 11:27 AM.

SAHM to Kaitlynn (11/26/93), Arianna (7/3/03), and Mackenzie (5/22/07)
Congratulations on breastfeeding your daughter for 3 years! DD2 was 3 1/2 when she stopped breastfeeding. I was also about 4 months pregnant at the time and it hurt every time she latched on. She began to catch on that I was in pain so we sat down and talked about how much we both enjoyed the nursing relationship. I did not want her memories of breastfeeding to be those of me in pain so nursing was replaced with her using my breast as a pillow to fall asleep on.
Transitions can be trying for everyone and we might need to try multiple ways before we figure out something that fits. Your daughter might be satisfied with extra cuddles, a straw cup with water, or playing a game during previous daytime nursing sessions.
Thank you so much for all your replies, I really appreciate it! I have been thinking about what all of you have said & considering what I should do that is best for her & I, but I think we may have an underlying issue which may actually make this situation easier to resolve for both of us. I will have to explain later. I just really wanted to say thank you & let you all know that what you all said was helpful!

My Instructables username is RoboGeekDude12!
@058686 - I translated you.The message says:QuoteMy Instructables username is RoboGeekDude12!http://home2.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/
Via the USB cable.I suspect you are asking for something else....
Write a program in VB/C/C#/whatever that sends commands to the Arduino via the USB.Write a program on the Arduino that parses these commands.______Rob
My take on "whatever" is to use a language called Processing, it is free to download and use and remarkably similar to the Arduino code.Well not so remarkable actually as the Arduino was derived from it.

A Taste of Italy
I had the excellent pleasure of enjoying a wine tasting in the private cellar at Europia Wine & Spirits last night. The tasting was presented by BelVino (Cleveland, Ohio), an importer of fine Italian wine. Director of Sales, Steve Sheppard was there along with Antonio Chiavaroli of Marramiero. The gentlemen led the twelve of us through the tasting. We enjoyed five exquisite wines; two whites, one rosé, and two reds.
*All of the wines were from Marramiero, from Abruzzo, Italy.

So as you can imagine, this evening was quite the exciting opportunity, a quiet event, in a private cellar, with a wine maker from Italy! Who wouldn't jump to positively RSVP? What else was so wonderful you ask? Well, each tasting was poured into a beautiful piece of Stölzle stemware!

I was so thrilled with the wines and the vast knowledge that was bestowed upon us, that I've decided to type up all of my notes and share them with you here on the Anchor Blog! Maybe my notes will inspire you to pick up a bottle and cook up some culinary delights to pair with it.
Our tasting was complete with hearty pours and fantastic hors d'oeuvres created by Europia's Proprietor, Steven Grabner.

This stunning Trebbiano d'Abruzzo just arrived in the United States last week. It is a 2010 Vintage and is aged in vessels and bottles for 3 months.
Not only does it have a full floral and perfectly fruity flavor, it has a powerfully elegant bouquet and impressive legs.
This wine would be a beautiful pairing with white meats and fish. Certainly, this is an excellent choice to pair with summer flavors.
Grape Varietal: 100% Trebbiano d'Abruzzo
Alcohol Content: 12%
Production: 50,000 bottles/ 6 per case/ carton
Size: 750 ml
Serving Temp: 54-56° F
This 2009 vintage is tropical and harmonious. It has excellent floral flavors, structure and balance. Spicy nuances are also evident among the mango, melon and grapefruit fragrances. The bouquet on this Pecorino is much lighter than that of the Trebbiano d'Abruzzo.
This golden beauty is aged in steel tanks and in bottles for 4 months.
For a pairing, fish and white meats would be fitting. Salami, pasta, or truffles would be dreamy compliments. Another striking union would be with seared sea scallops and a creamy risotto.
Grape Varietal: 100% Pecorino
Alcohol Content: 13%
Production: 30,000 bottles/ 6 per case/ carton
Size: 750 ml
Serving Temp: 52-54° F
The beautiful cherry color of this wine comes from vintification process. The contact between the skin and the juice of the red grapes is quite brief, only 24 hours, allowing only a slight tinge of red color. It is aged in vessels and bottle for about 3 months.
This light yet crisp wine has a fresh bouquet, and admirable legs. Its taste is round, dry and pleasant.
While one could drink rosé with anything, this Montepulciano would be incredible with gazpacho, pizza, vegetable soups, and tomato based dishes. Artichoke creations would also be well served with this wine.
*Side note: Artichoke has a chemical that makes it quite difficult to pair with wine and often creates a taste of tin. Surprisingly, this wine manages to balance its flavors out.
Grape Varietal: 100% Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Alcohol Content: 13%
Production: 40,000 bottles/ 6 per case/ carton
Size: 750 ml
Serving Temp: 54-56° F
This wine is bread of indigenous grapes and aged in French and Slavonian oak barrels for 14-18 months, it then continues to mature and refine in the bottle for 6 months. The color of Inferi is a deep ruby red.
The bouquet is rich and warm. Fragrances of vanilla, tobacco and licorice are intensely evident.
This 2007 vintage not only boasts an artful label, but a powerful flavor that would be perfect with pasta, mushrooms, beef or mature cheeses.
Grape Varietal: 100% Montepulciano
Alcohol Content: 14%
Production: 100,000 bottles/ 6 per case/ carton
Size: 750 ml and 1.5 liter
Serving Temp: 60-65° F
This incredible ruby red Dama has a vibrant bouquet with fragrant hints of licorice. It is an easy, drinkable wine with unbelievable fruit flavors and perfect acidity. It has a subtle spice and good balance.
There is almost no oak flavor to this wine, making it a pleasure to drink with any plate. Its distinct flavor is attributed to the process of 12 month aging in steel, followed by 6 months in 2nd and 3rd use barrels.
*Side note: Each vintage is different, because of the 2nd and 3rd use barrel process. The fruit flavors begin to change because the oak barrels pull out the acidity of the wine; this varies by year based on the 1st use of the barrel.
Grape Varietal: 100% Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Alcohol Content: 13.5%
Production: 6 per case/ carton
Size: 750 ml
Serving Temp: 66-67° F

With the arrival of cooler fall weather, we have taken the opportunity to do some landscaping work at the Greenlake Guest House.
First was replacing the cracked, 80 year old concrete walkway above the front steps, and doing some repair work to those 80 year old stairs.
Next, we hired Jim and his crew at Landscape Professionals to help us give the front landscaping a bit more curb appeal. Jim designed a great plan for us using some of the shrubs we already have, and adding a sitting area for our guests in the front. He also suggested adding automatic sprinklers and trees to the parking strip to keep it pretty and green all year around. We removed a few shrubs and trees that were oversized for their space.
Last week the crew spent 3 days here and installed the new sprinklers, new grass and red maple trees on the parking strip, as well as a coral bark maple near our property line. The progress was so fast, we felt like we were watching an episode of a home improvement show like "Total House Makeover!" We are excited for next week, when they will add the new plantings around the foundation of the house, as well as some additional plantings and sprinklers for the back!

This past weekend, Chuck Noll – the legendary coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers who won four Super Bowl championships during his tenure with the team – passed away at the age of 82. In honor of the all-time great, NFL Network spent a lot of time on Saturday and Sunday running programming that focused on Noll's title-winning teams.
In watching shows like America's Game, it was impossible not to be struck by the way in which the head coach turned a one-time doormat into what is arguably the greatest franchise in league history. He transformed pro football in the Steel City.
That puts Noll atop the list of Steelers head coaches, although that group is stacked with other Super Bowl winners. Which got the editors at cover32 thinking about who is the greatest coach in the history of each franchise.
But that's just step one in the process. Once the greatest coach was determined, it was time to rank each of the coaches who were selected from 1-32.
The results make up this week's Power Rankings: The greatest coaches in each franchise's history:
1. Vince Lombardi (Green Bay Packers) – Curly Lambeau won more games (209 to 89) and more titles (six to five), but one coach has the stadium named after him while the other one has his name etched on the NFL's championship trophy every year. Lombardi won five NFL titles, including the first two Super Bowls, during a seven-year stretch; he's the epitome of championship football.
2. Bill Walsh (San Francisco 49ers) – Yes, George Seifert has a gaudy .766 winning percentage during his eight years at the helm in San Francisco, a stretch that included a pair of Super Bowl titles, but it was Walsh who laid the groundwork for his success. One of the greatest offensive minds in league history, Walsh turned a losing franchise into a dynasty, winning three championships of his own in the '80s.
3. Paul Brown (Cleveland Browns) – Why are Browns fans frustrated? Because the greatest coach in franchise history retired 52 years ago, only to be followed by 17 men who couldn't escape his legend. During his 17 years at the helm in Cleveland, Brown posted a .767 winning percentage, won four AAFC titles, captured three NFL championships and named the franchise after himself. That's pretty darn good.
4. Bill Belichick (New England Patriots) – People may not like Belichick's tactics, but it's impossible to argue with the results. During his time in New England, the Patriots have won 11 AFC East titles in 14 seasons, made five Super Bowl appearances and hoisted three Lombardi Trophies; that's a staggering level of success. And Belichick isn't done yet, as the book is still being written.
5. Tom Landry (Dallas Cowboys) – Jimmy Johnson gets some serious consideration for this spot, given that he won two Super Bowls in the 1990s with the Cowboys and left a team in place that won another two years after he left. But Landry's résumé is just too good; the legendary coach won 250 games during his time in Dallas, led the team to five Super Bowls and won two titles; longevity wins out on this one.
6. Don Shula (Miami Dolphins) – The accolades for Shula are astounding, as his résumé is stacked with accomplished, most of which occurred during his time in south Florida. He's the NFL's all-time winningest coach with 347 victories, 257 of which came in Miami. He also led the Dolphins to 12 AFC East titles, five Super Bowl appearances and two NFL championships.
7. George Halas (Chicago Bears) – It's like comparing apples and oranges, trying to measure one of the founders of the league (Halas) against the other great coach in Bears history (Mike Ditka); they simply had the job in eras that were too vastly different. But Halas won six NFL championships across his four stints as the team's head coach and he helped create the game; that's almost impossible to beat.
8. Chuck Noll (Pittsburgh Steelers) – Winning four Super Bowl titles puts Noll in an elite group, as he's the only head coach in NFL history to accomplish that feat. Considering he did it in a six-year span, after taking over one of the most-hapless franchises in the league just five years before the first title, it's evident that he was one of the greatest coaches in the history of the league.
9. Joe Gibbs (Washington Redskins) – Gibbs is underappreciated in terms of the greatest coaches in NFL history, especially for a guy who won three Super Bowls; his name rarely comes up in conversations about the all-time best, but it should. Not only did he win three titles, but each one was captured with a different starting quarterback; he never had a Hall-of-Fame signal caller to ride.
10. Bill Parcells (New York Giants) – Given that the team's early success seemed to be with a different coach each time (Earl Potteiger, Steve Owen, etc.), this ultimately came down to two guys who won a pair of Super Bowls with the G-Men – Parcells and Tom Coughlin. Ultimately, Parcells won out because his first championship team (1986) was dominant. The other three Super Bowl winners weren't.
11. John Madden (Oakland Raiders) – An entire generation knows Madden only for his colorful work in the broadcast booth, while yet another simply is aware of him as the guy from the video games. But before any of that, he was a great coach for a decade with the Raiders. In 10 years, his Oakland teams made eight playoff appearance, won seven division titles, played in two Super Bowls and won a title.
12. Mike Shanahan (Denver Broncos) – Red Miller has the highest winning percentage (.645) in franchise history. Dan Reeves led the Broncos to three Super Bowl appearances in the 1980s. But ultimately, it was Shanahan who got them over the hump, bringing the first championship in franchise history to Denver in 1997, something he was able to repeat the next year.
13. Hank Stram (Kansas City Chiefs) – There was a lot of support for Marty Schottenheimer in this spot, as he won three division titles and made seven playoff appearances during his decade in Kansas City. But ultimately, Stram's ability to win the big game – two AFL titles and one Super Bowl during his time with the Texans/Chiefs – put the Hall of Fame coach at the top of the list.
14. John Harbaugh (Baltimore Ravens) – Considering that two of the three coaches in franchise history – Harbaugh and Brian Billick – have won Super Bowl titles, this was essentially a coin flip. But Harbaugh ultimately got the nod because of the fact that he made the playoffs in each of his first five seasons as head coach and has never had a losing season (Billick had two).
15. Sid Gillman (San Diego Chargers) – Don Coryell helped change the game with his revolutionary passing attack, but he couldn't get to a Super Bowl. Bobby Ross got the Chargers to their only appearance in the big game, but couldn't win a title. And Marty Schottenheimer won a lot of games, but flopped in the playoffs. Thus, the coach who got to five AFL title matches and won one gets the top spot in San Diego.
16. Marv Levy (Buffalo Bills) – After a less-than-successful stint in Kanas City, people wondered why Ralph Wilson tabbed the then-61-year-old Levy to take over the Bills in 1986. But he proved the doubters wrong, leading Buffalo to the playoffs eight times during his 12-year career with the team. But he earned a spot in Canton because he guided the franchise to a record four consecutive Super Bowls.

Protecting Earth's Tundra Habitats
The tundras that cover a tenth of Earth's land are essentially frozen bogs with little vegetation diversity. But these are among the most sensitive habitats in the world.
The most severe threat is global warming. Many scientists believe global warming caused by greenhouse gases may eliminate Arctic regions, including the tundras there, forever.
Another concern is that about one-third of the world's soil-bound carbon is in tundra permafrost. As this frozen soil thaws, its organic contents begin to decay, releasing carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. The tundra is also slow to repair itself from physical disturbances, such as vehicular tracks. Cutting greenhouse gas emissions by switching to alternative energy uses is key to protecting Earth's tundra habitats.
- The melting of the permafrost as a result of global warming could radically change the landscape and what species are able to live there.
- Ozone depletion at the North and South Poles means stronger ultraviolet rays that will harm the tundra.
- Air pollution can cause smog clouds that contaminate lichen, a significant food source for many animals.
- Exploration of oil, gas, and minerals and construction of pipelines and roads can cause physical disturbances and habitat fragmentation.
- Oil spills can kill wildlife and significantly damage tundra ecosystems.
- Buildings and roads put heat and pressure on the permafrost, causing it to melt.
- Invasive species push aside native vegetation and reduce diversity of plant cover.
- Switch to alternative energy uses to minimize human-made global warming.
- Establish protected areas and park reserves to restrict human influence.
- Limit road construction, mining activities, and the building of pipelines in tundra habitat.
- Limit tourism and respect local cultures.

Lovely data, lovely model
By kristenh on Apr 18, 2008
The most important step in refining data is writing down what makes it tick. In my last blog entry I outlined the process by which my team refined the data flow for Sun Web sites and mentioned Unified Product Data Model (UPDM). UPDM is a formal means for organizing the information for Sun web sites, with an emphasis on product data. The goal in developing UPDM was to reduce the redundancy and inefficiency in the data sets for the Starlight publishing platform, and then to extend the benefits to e-commerce sites, each of which happen to be hosted on different platforms.
UPDM provides definitions, basic business rules and relationships between facets of product data, including hierarchy, and attributes of each category, product and part. It's maintained in a simple XML which can be transformed to HTML, spreadsheet, or even UML diagram. The following listing is a snippet from the actual core UPDM 1.0 model used in Starlight.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <data-model> Data Model Browser - UPDM 1.0 <explanation>
The UPDM Data Model Browser describes concepts and attributes that are core to the Sun Unified Product Data Model. This version [UPDM 1.0] covers product data elements as they are represented in Sun.com, shop.sun.com, and Sun Catalogue. Product elements that describe transactions, implementation, or presentation are not included in UPDM...
 </explanation> <concept id="product"> Product <explanation>Actual product entity. Representation of the unit offered to the market by Sun (i.e. Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 9.0; Sun SPARC Enterprise M5000 Server.) </explanation> <implementation-guideline> Use the id as a stand-in for the product itself </implementation-guideline> <association ref="swordfish-id"/> <association ref="name"> <constraint>Strictly syndicated through SwoRDFish</constraint> </association> <association ref="description"/> <association ref="image"/> <association> <concept id="plc-date"> Product life cycle date <explanation>A date on which a change of PLC status occurs</explanation> <implementation-guideline> <data type="date"/> </implementation-guideline> [...] <example>2006-10-10</example> <comment>Related to the price effectivity date</comment> </concept> </concept> <concept id="industry"> Industry <explanation>Industry for which suited or targeted</explanation> <association ref="swordfish-id"/> <implementation-guideline> Use the SwoRDFish ID as a stand-in for the industry itself </implementation-guideline> </concept> [...] </data-model>
We developed UPDM 1.0 at a time when there were not as many good options for expressing such data models. RDF and XMI carried too much baggage, and we wanted something simple and clear, although RDF does play an important role in how things are bound together in the implementation, as I'll discuss another day. Again we can generate all these other representations as needed. As an example the following picture is a UML class diagram generated from the XML above.
OK, a bit of an eye-chart. But, when you develop a broad data model such as UPDM its a real eye-opener, and you gain more than just the end product. You learn a lot about what business problems and business rules are not really well expressed anywhere, and are only to be found in someone's head. Sometimes you learn about the key tensions between how different roles and departments interpret and process information.
To take one example, at Sun what we sell for hardware, the actual SKUs, are called "parts" in the marketing department, including e-commerce. In many other departments, and in a lot of the vendor software we use these are called "products". We don't really market at this level, though. We market the families of these such as "SunFire T2000", and these are what we call "products" and what others call "product families".
UPDM itself doesn't provide any magic to reconcile such differences. It does provide the best you can hope for – a framework for writing down the knowledge so it's open, shared, and even accessible through code. Then you have half a chance to build some magic on top of the model.

The Canal was 60 feet wide at water level, 36 feet wide at the bottom and six feet deep along the entire route of 96 miles. The Canal connected to Lake Michigan via 5.5 miles of the Chicago River. In the northeastern portion of the Canal, pumps were needed to keep it filled with water from the lake.
A total of 15 locks were built on the
I & M. These were needed to lift and lower boats along the course of the
Canal as water levels changed. Other construction along the Canal included
aqueducts (which carried the Canal over rivers and streams), bridges,
dams, lockkeepers' houses and the towpath along which mules pulled the
motorless canal boats.
If we were to be transported back to the heyday of the I & M Canal, we would be astonished at its quiet character. The modern, harsh sounds of jet engines, trucks and trains would be replaced by the soft sounds of the mules' hooves on the towpath and the conversations of the boatmen.
The trickle of commerce between east
and west swelled into a continuous flow of people and goods. The Midwest's
hub became Chicago and the city's population soared 600% in the decade
after the opening fo the Canal.
The growing prosperity was not limited to Chicago; communities along the Canal route flourished. Illinois underwent a tremendous change in population and immigrants poured into the northern part of the state.
The intensed use of the Canal was not to last. By 1854, railroads offered faster travel, rendering passenger boats obsolete. Rail transportation of freight became increasingly competitive, and the I & M Canal responded by reducing tolls. Canal traffic and income declined; services also declined and the Canal began to deteriorate.
Increasingly, the Canal was used to carry wastes away from Chicago. In 1900, the larger Sanitary and Ship Canal went into operation, carrying both wastes and larger, more modern barges. Six short years later, the traffic on the I & M Canal consisted mostly of small, local barges and pleasure crafts. All use of the I & M Canal ended in 1933, with the opening of the Canal's modern successor - the Illinois Waterway.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
BioWare has posted a new developer blog penned by Executive Producer Jeff Hickman where he acknowledges that the team is listening to players' concerns over various aspects of the free to play option in Star Wars: The Old Republic. Hickman assures players that the dialog is ongoing and is a two way street of communication.
Recently, we've seen your feedback on some of the other aspects of our Free-to-Play option and once again, we are working to improve the experience for all of our players.Starting today, Preferred Status Players will see an increase to their default Quickbars from two (2) to four (4). If you've already purchased additional Quickbars, don't worry: we will be refunding your Cartel Coins for any Quickbar-related purchase.
Additionally, in an upcoming patch (no exact date yet, but players won't have to wait long), Preferred Status Players will be given four (4) additional character slots, which means that they will have a total of six character slots. As always, Free-to-Play Players can reach Preferred Status simply by purchasing anything from our online store or purchasing a physical copy of the game.
Read the full post on the Star Wars: The Old Republic site.
I really don't understand why they aren't charging for character slots. People would buy them. Of course, I don't understand why they thought the quick bars thing was a good idea in the first place either.
I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.

I agree with you totally. People buy characters slots (including myself) all the time. The quick bar thing left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouth and seemed like one of the more idiotic moves ever made by a MMO company. The classes are too few to have it where only certain classes unlock otherwise that would have been another good area for them to sell in the store.
Well, the thing is bioware needs to ask itself, what do they hope to accomplish with the F2P model.
Seems obvious right? increased revenue!
But how?
People having to buy things from the store to have an acceptable playing experience?
People buy things that make the game either more convienient or fun (races, companion skins, unique mounts, saber colors, ect)
Larger player base, that gives subscribers more people to do things with? Which would go along with one of the above. If this were the case I would reccomend dropping, at least the flashpoint limits if not warzone and raids as well, since they artifically limit the player pool that subscibers can draw from to do flashpoints. Changing limits on the AH selling and buying, as well as credit limits might also help reinvigorate the economy.

They will be. These are just the base slots available.

Also, these changes were much needed. It came a little too late, in my opinion. That is, for me it did. I'm sure there are plenty of people who enjoy it and partake in it. Indeed, the increase of character slots might even be specifically for people who play, so that they'll make more characters, stay longer and spend more money.
If they listened, they would fix my problem of not updating my subscription or my purchases of cartel points...
Still not seeing any progress... only canned responses and automatically closing my tickets.

There is so much wrong with this post that I don't even know where to begin. Firstly, it's in a SWTOR thread, and makes no mention of SWTOR. Even a follow up sentence with the words SWTOR would've sufficed. This is a thread about how SWTOR has improved or is improving. The additional slots for both characters and quickbars were sorely needed, and I've noticed less complaints all around from people who still play it (that I know personally) after hearing this.
Secondly, I'm noticing people saying how massively successful the Gem Store is, and how much GW2 has sold, followed by people who say the opposite. The people I know in retail agree that it's still selling like hotcakes, and they repeatedly sell out with gem cards. Though I'd chalk that up to potentially the location. Also, many seem to not understand the basics of how companies operate and how their relations with companies that they are "big brother" to (especially if there's a "non-interference" clause). In a recent inteview, whether it was marketing or not, they're saying that profits are beyond what they expected, and they're pushing out monthly content as evidence (which we take for what it is; though if the gem store was doing bad I'd think they'd gear back to the 6 month expansions instead of live updates and expansion secondary). When I see a report that Anet has laid of staff (in large quantities) and not just an ailing publisher/owner, then I'll be inclined to believe some of the doom sayers.
Thrice: NCsoft was one of the biggest MMORPG companies in the world for a time, and they probably have the staff to upkeep that. Now that some other F2P based companies have surpassed them, it's only natural to have layoffs and reorganized their big money makers. They specifically said most of the layoffs were in the U.S., and none have been reported from Anet or from their other income generating (on at decent scale) games. Blade N Soul is doing extremely well, Wildstar has a good following, and all evidence points to GW2 being in good shape (as much as people want to believe otherwise with reasons that are beyond me wanting a game to do poorly, people getting laid off, and others losing a game they enjoy). I haven't read much on it, but I'd assume they'll centralize a lot of their staff, as that's what one would do when focusing on main titles (as well as extras that still generate).
Bioware and EA have to get out there and do things, and this is just a start to get noticed. Is it enough? I don't know; it's probably a good start for those who still play, and those who will now consider playing if the original restrictions put them off. Was it required? Probably, as I believe it was too restrictive in a lot of ways; though might as well make a big announcement about it so that it is likely more people will see it, yes?
People keep saying that GW2 is doing bad, but I have yet to see anything that would indicate to me that A-Net has had anything but success with the game, ie:
-Merged servers within a few months
-Core layoffs
-Developer blogs admitting 'things aren't turning out how we hope'
-Founding members of the company quitting 'to pursue other projects'.
Etc etc..
SWTOR has, as much as we might like to claim otherwise, not done as well as EA and Bioware wanted. Massive server merges after a few months of release, F2P one year after release..
I really wanted to love TOR, and I might play free, but out of principle, I won't buy a sub just to get something that apparently offered 'for free'.
They are not listing to me, as a free to play player I can not communicate on their forums. So were listening is bs.

I am interested again...if someone can tell me as I only played the BETA...are the other restrictions in place really dampering playing this game as F2P or is it good to go in it's current state. What I'm asking I guess is will I hit a point while playing that I will be FORCED to buy credits or upgrade to subscription. I don't mind paying for credits, but want to be aware beforehand.
I believe most of the complaints were about the quickbars and the character slots. Though ultimately, it is free so you could just see if it's your cup of tea; if you have limited bandwidth, then perhaps someone else can more efficiently answer your question on if it's worth the download.
The biggest thing you might run into is the inability to equip "epic" items without a "license" to do so. Though you can still equip blue quality, and honestly raids are only for subscribers anyway. You are able to purchase a license for your whole account fairly cheaply if I remember (and I believe it's permanent).
Though again, most of the content is for 1-50 anyway so you probably won't need purple items, as you might just start a new character all over again by the time you see the whole story of one.
I just recently tried the SWTOR F2P and had alot of fun. The game has been immensely polished since I was in the beta.
However after giving the F2P model a try up to level 11 I quickly realized that this game is better played as a subscription instead of F2P title. I do have a few questions.
1. Anyone know just how much life this game has yet? like will it shut down after so many months? I know they are merging servers which is always a bad sign.
2. What exactly is the new space update gonna fix, do or improve that they are working on and when are they shooting for a release on that?
Thanks to all who respond.
Doesnt matter what they do..This game could not keep my interest whatsoever. I really tried to like it!
The game looks pretty polished and ran smooth even on my laptop , but it just felt dull in my opinion.
I do hope they make f2p a bit better though. I do have friends that seem to like it.

Since I called numerous times the bar restriction as the stupidest restriction in f2p's history I guess it's only fair to say a 'Well done' to them now. It's good that preferred's get back their full UI. But honestly, if they'd listen more closely, they could've made it way before the f2p launch (based on the test feedbacks) and hence avoid lots of negative comments
I already ditched my f2p acc, that experiment clearly pointed out the model's AoC-ish nature (namely it's unplayable in the long run), but I guess I'll check my old acc now. Don't say I'll resubscribe (no way ), just goofing around a bit with 4 bars again.
Yes I am sure they are listening. Just not to us.
Ask any beta tester who TOLD THEM SO years ago.
People don't ask questions to get answers - they ask questions to show how smart they are. - Dogbert
i originally did not like the game. felt like it was too soulless and that outside the storyline experience (and some missions like the esseles) i was in a game, not in star wars.
that being said, i've watched some friends play recently and i think it's got a chance to make it. the core of the game is an OK themepark with some character customization and a pretty neat companion system. if they get that star wars feel in there everywhere, as opposed to just in some places, people will be playing for years to come.

Well. We already knew about the quickslot change. My only complaint there is that F2P players should get at least 3 slots. Anyone that bought quicklot bar unlocks for CC and sold them for credits is loving this as they get their CCs refunded and keep the credits.
Four additional character slots for preferred players is very generous. I think one or two additional slots would have been fair with the ability to buy additional ones for up to $5 a piece.
The one thing thing I feel they still HAVE to fix for F2P/Preferred is letting them choose their quest rewards. Charging for that is ridiculous.
I never bitched about character slots or Quickbars. I bitched about non sensical things like only allowing you to use chat once a minuite. Limiting what you can look from quests, and only allowing 3 Boss rolls in Flashpoints per week.
While i can live with the flashpoint one. the chat one is a sheer "we will stop pokeing you in the face if you pay us" Buisness plan.
Because i can.

Crop forecasting is the art of predicting crop yields (tons/ha) and production before the harvest actually takes place, typically a couple of months in advance. Several techniques can be used. What is described here is the approach used by FAO in national food security systems. Crop forecasting relies on computer programmes that describe the plant-environment interactions in quantitative terms. Such programmes are called "models", and they attempt to simulate plant-weather-soil interactions. They need, therefore, information and data on the most important factors that affect crop yields - the model inputs. After passing "through" the model, the inputs are converted to a number of outputs, such as maps of crop conditions and yields.

Freedom in the World, 2007
Since 1978, Freedom House has published Freedom in the World, an annual comparative assessment of the state of political rights and civil liberties around the world. Widely used by policy makers, journalists, and scholars, the 600-page survey is considered the definitive report on freedom around the globe. The ratings reflect global events from Dec. 1, 2005, through Dec. 31, 2006.
According to the survey, 90 countries are free. Their 3.0 billion inhabitants (47% of the world's population) enjoy a broad range of rights. Fifty-eight countries representing 1.1 billion people (30%) are considered partly free. Political rights and civil liberties are more limited in these countries, in which corruption, dominant ruling parties, or, in some cases, ethnic or religious strife is often the norm. The survey finds that 45 countries are not free. The 2.4 billion inhabitants (23%) of these countries, nearly one-half of whom live in China, are denied most basic political rights and civil liberties. In 2006, Guyana moved from Partly Free to Free, and Haiti and Nepal moved from Not Free to Partly Free. Thailand and the Republic of Congo moved from Partly Free to Not Free.
The list below features only independent countries. Freedom House's separate listing of territories reveals that four territories received the lowest possible political rights rating: Chechnya (Russia), Kashmir (Pakistan), Tibet (China), and Western Sahara (Morocco); of those, Chechnya and Tibet also received the lowest possible civil liberties ratings.
1. Countries are ranked according to political rights and civil liberties on a scale from 1.0 (most free) to 7.0 (least free).

Skip to comments.Maxine Waters: Obama Has a Database on Everything About Every Individual
Posted on 03/02/2013 11:27:28 AM PST by Libloather
RUSH: Here's Maxine Waters. This was last Sunday on TV One's Washington Watch with Roland Martin. Maxine Waters, Democrat from California. Her district is basically the Watts area of Los Angeles, and Roland Martin said, "The reality is like anything else, you'd better get what you can while Obama's there because, look, come 2016, that's it." Now, what Roland Martin's saying here is all of you who are looking for prosperity from the government, you better get it and get it now. Get it while you can, get it while Obama's there, because come 2016, he's not gonna be there, and then you're gonna be on your own. You better get what you can get now. And here's what Maxine Waters said in reply.
WATERS: Well, you know, I don't know. And I think some people are missing something here. The president has put in place an organization that contains the kind of database that no one has ever seen before in life. That's going to be very, very powerful. That database will have information about everything on every individual in ways that it's never been done before.
RUSH: Hmm. Okay. Cool. Fine. What's that got to do with getting benefits after 2016? Maybe she didn't understand what he was talking about. He's talking about, you better get in there, get your goodies right now because in 2016 he's gone. Better get it while you can. She says, "I don't know, Roland, he's got this database." Maybe she means he's not going anywhere. Maybe that's what she means, folks. He's not going anywhere, 'cause he's got this database with information about everything on every individual. I'll bet that's what she meant, Snerdley. That 2016 isn't a big deal 'cause he's not going anywhere. That has to be it.
In the Stupid category in obama'a database, top of the list is "Waters, Maxine"
But I don't doubt he has a list of enemies.
it's amazing her keepers let her out in public ,but maybe her keepers are nowhere as smart as Maxine
LOL. Her keepers probably think she's a genius.
So need for the ban on weapons as the Great one will know who the next crazy shooter will be!
We need to Change his name to Carnac all knowing all seeing POTUS with Great Powers that will transcend the Nation.
Hey Dems elect another fool! By the way where has Sheila Lee been?
Nevermind I really don't wanna know.
He's making a list, Checking it twice; Gonna find out who's naughty or nice. Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping He knows when you're awake He knows if you've been bad or good So be good for goodness sake
Mad Maxine Waters: The president has put in place an organization that contains the kind of database that no one has ever seen before in life. That database will have information about everything on every individual in ways that it's never been done before.
The response to the statement is not even close. In fact it is totally unrelated.
No connection to reality at all.
Typical for a commie "liberal."
A distinct possibility.
She gets to pick her keepers.
There is no one in Congress more stupid and evil and mad Maxine.
She probably does not know that he's limited by law to two terms or she thinks Black Democrats can get away with as many terms as they want....because they are Black.
Billary won't let him stay even if our treasonous Congress, courts and military leaders allowed it. Billary wants her own whack at the US Treasury, constitution and the American people she hates.
Maxine then he knows about you making sure your husbands bank was bailed out by the working folk. Guess that makes him an accomplice.
"The real issue here is that Obama has such a database, and you have a senior member of Congress telling the world that it contains information on EVERYONE.
That's a MASSIVE privacy issue. What kinds of information does it contain, where did the information come from "
Probably got it from d—n Google! I HATE Google!
Waters intellect is just a reflection of the majority of her constituents.
in case you
missed me *sshole..kiss my *ss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Their making a list checking it twice gonna find out who the dealth panels will put on ice, Obamaborg is commin' to town....."
I wouldn't be surprised if he ends elections and stays for the rest of his life. Would any of you?
This mental midget is safe. No one will call her an idiot cuz she has protective coloration.
My thoughts exactly. I would like to demand to see this database which sounds like an invasion of my privacy.
2016 Democrat primary, Michelle Obama vs. Hillary Clinton, the proxy wenches for third terms by Bill Clinton or Baraq Obama. Bill Clinton already introduced the concept of "co-presidency" when he had Hillary Clinton actively engaged.
. . and Maxine knows this information .. HOW?!!
Whatever you say Mad Maxi Pad.
Sheila Jackson Lee gives an IQ test to any applicants for staff positions. If they test lower in IQ than Sheila (ie, off the low end of the IQ scale), she refers them to Maxine Waters.
Best thing she said: "In 2016 he's gone".
Ellison, the arrogantly rude asshat converted mooselimb who made such a fool of himself recently on Hannity, and Maxine the avowed communist who serves herself as those poor clowns in Watts have all they're going to get.
If a proper totalitarian government ever took over this nation for a decade or so sub-humans like these two would go missing.
Jesus has an even BIGGER database than you can ever imagine, which includes all the people who have ever lived from the beginning of mankind.
The other possibility is that the Obama administration let the court jester tell the truth so no one would believe it was true. When really exposed, they can claim it is old news because a sitting congressman discussed it openly. I don't trust a single person in elected office these days. I have found those that I trusted in the past were much like the others given enough time.
So Obama knows everything about me, my wife, and my children and I'm supposed to happily give up my firearms?!
I disagree, tank.
I think Rush is just highlighting the basic incoherence and stupidity of this woman after her recent "170 million lost jobs" comment, not to mention her 20 years worth of other public idiocy.
>>The Antichrist will have a database, too, Maxine, you evil witch.<<
No "will" about it. He HAS one and maxine told us about it...
She's so F**king dumb, it boggles the mind.
She's probably the only person that obama is smarter than. But that may be a stretch.
"The Antichrist will have a database, too, Maxine, you evil witch."
In a similar vein, The Lord has a database, it's called the Book of Life and Maxine and Barack are not in it.
No way the two evil witches would share power. At a basic level, Moochelle is a big fat racist and so is Hillary.
Probably got it from dn Google! I HATE Google!
Facebook is the most likely. As for where the information comes from, it comes from you, when you voluntarily post things onto their databases.
I don't even know who you are and don't recall posting to you.
Doesn't look like I missed much.
What I stated about Clinton back in the '90s also applies to Obama today:
Will he attempt to stay past his second term? I don't know, but if he believes he can get away with it, he will.
Maybe Maxine knows the 'database' can tell train conductors which people go to death camps and which go to 're-education' centers. You know - something creepy like that - Oh wait - Obama said the other day that he wasn't a dictator... so that can't be it. /s
I don't know Maxine, If I had the goods on damn near everyone, I really would not publicize it.
Maxine is as dumb as a bag of hammers.
I don't know Maxine, If I had the goods on damn near everyone, I really would not publicize it.
Maxine is as dumb as a bag of hammers.
Based on posting history, I think his/her response was meant to tell OBummer that he can add him (ldish) to his enemies list. Just a guess.
I am thinking that Obama is the "King who understands dark sentences."
You mean the question the whole country is going to ask, "How could this have happened," right?
Message to Maxine: Apocryphal, but pertinent. John Hancock supposedly wrote his signature very large to make sure that King George could read it. There comes a point at which a supposed database does not cower a determined soul. Unfortunately, that point fast approaches.
Well then he gets a twofer, friendly fire an all.
LOL. Very good.
'..What Maxine Waters is talking about is how The Obama "database" will just be passed along to whoever the Dem 2016 candidate is ... giving that candidate an incredibly powerful tool with which to do things like micro-targeting. ..'
My take too with a little twist....may be that her point is Obama has info on potential Republican/Conservative candidates that Dems will use to defeat opponents and help get another lib Dem elected in 2016. Soooo people don't have to worry ....they'll continue to get free stuff since another left liberal will be elected after Obama. God help us.

By PHIL FAUVERStaff Writer
The Emery County Republican Party held their Nominating Convention March 30, at the Huntington Elementary School. Chairman Bill Dellos welcomed everyone and introduced the agenda for the evening. After the candidates for State and Federal offices had spoken and left for the Carbon County Convention the meeting prepared to vote for an Emery County Commissioner.
Prior to the election of candidates for the Emery County Commission, Janet Geary, under the direction of Bill Dellos Chairman of the Emery County Republican Party, instructed the delegates about voting rules and Convention procedures for electing the Commissioner candidates. The Election Judges for the Convention were James Nelson, Linda Nelson, Joshua Galvez, Tiffany Galvez, and Gayland Dugmore.
Ethan Migliori won the nomination for Emery County Commissioner, on the first ballot, by a vote of 62 percent from the 116 Emery County Republican Party Delegates attending the convention. The other candidates for commissioner were James Davis of Orangeville and Kent Keele from Castle Dale.
Migliori, his wife Heidi Conover Migliori and children live in Ferron. Migliori is a successful business owner, developed and patented a tool for the rock and granite industry. Later, he sold that business to a company in California, which gave him the opportunity to move his family back to Ferron.
He works at the college in Price as the director of the Small Business Development Center covering Emery and Carbon counties. His main function is to help small businesses with any problems that they may have. Since 2009 he has been able to help entrepreneurs create more than 200 jobs and injected more than $2.1 million back into the local businesses of Emery County. In 2008 the Emery County Economic Development Council needed a business model to do economic development for local businesses. So Migliori as chairman and the council created the Business Expansion And Retention project (BEAR). This project has been so successful, the governor's office came to the Emery County Economic Development Council and asked for permission to take this model to the rest of rural Utah. This BEAR project is now being implemented in 29 counties.
Migliori is currently working on an export pilot program for the area. This will help the Emery County businesses diversify and strengthen. This program will bring extra revenue into the county without increasing the tax burden on Emery County residents. Regarding public lands. Migliori believes the citizens of Emery County should make those decisions and not some bureaucrat in Washington. While the counting of the ballots for County Commissioner was taking place, Gary Arrington of Huntington brought up the question of raising the voting threshold from 60 percent to 70 percent to increase the possibility of a primary election for candidates. Tom Hansen of Elmo spoke for the change and Keith Johnson of Green River spoke against the change. The proposed changing of the Emery County Republican Party Constitution and Bylaws voting threshold from 60 to 70 percent was defeated by more than 80 percent of the delegates.
More than 250 people attended the convention. The majority of the delegates appeared to be in favor of Gov. Gary Herbert, US Senator Orrin Hatch, US Representative Jason Chaffetz, State Senator David Hinkins and State Representative Kay McKiff being reelected.
The following candidates for public office spoke of their qualifications for the office they were seeking. Bruce Hough the Utah Republican Party National Committeeman spoke of the upcoming Republican Party Convention in Florida. Hough said, he supports Mitt Romney a personal friend of many years. He said, "We need Romney's leadership skills and management skills to get this country headed in the right direction."
Gov. Gary Herbert said, "It is a joy to come to Emery County. I have been showing up in Emery County for many years. Thanks for taking good care of my sister who lives in Ferron with her husband.
"I understand the land issues and the challenges we have with energy issues in this state. When I became Governor I set out some goals. I created an Economic Development plan to help the state become more economically friendly to grow the jobs and create economic opportunity. We reduced taxes, cut 360 business regulations and cut employment insurance rates giving relief to our businesses across the State of Utah. We have been named the best state to do business in for the second year in a row. Our unemployment rate statewide is now down to 5.7 percent. We still have challenges both here and around the state.
"My second priority was education. We cannot have long term sustained opportunity if we do not have a good skilled labor force. I am pleased to see the Legislature embraced my recommendation to put $117 million new dollars into education, $57 million into higher education in ways that will be more innovative. My third priority is energy which is very important to this part of the state. We now have a 10 year plan to maximize our opportunities and help Utah where it needs help. This will create jobs and opportunities.
"We held an Energy Summit recently and more than 1,000 people showed up. They came from 20 states and Canada. They came to Utah to learn about energy opportunity in a free market system. We are leading out in energy development which will create jobs. We have the lowest cost energy and are exporters of energy. We are also more efficient now in state government even though we have fewer employees and 600,000 more people living in Utah than in the year 2000. Utah has an AAA bond rating. I am honored to serve as your governor," said Gov. Herbert.
Lane Ronnow a candidate for governor followed Governor Herbert. Lane said he is uniquely prepared to be Utah's next governor. He then related his experience with the Porterville Sheltered Workshop. Where he was hired to manage their finances. He found they were overspending their budget by $100,000 a month. That was about 20 percent of their budget. We changed that by proper budgeting. After 10 years there was no debt, no leases, no debt of any kind and $5 million in the bank. The savings was not done on the backs of the employees it was accomplished by proper budgeting. As director of the Salt Lake County Building and Zoning Department, I cut the budget, 30 percent, and did 60 percent more volume of work. Government quasi-government, public entities can be managed effectively. I am concerned about education. I have served as the business administrator for the Morgan School District. Education is under funded compared to the rest of the nation. Because we are badly managed it needs to be budgeted properly.
Ronnow said, "My second point is that there is enough oil in the oil shale in Eastern Utah, Western Colorado, and Southwestern Wyoming. There is more oil there, than in the Gulf of Mexico or Saudi Arabia combined. If you have a process that is patented and the process is environmentally sound. Why wouldn't everyone be willing to accept that process?
"I am concerned about education, oil shale, funding and the financial problems of the state. I have a proven record of cutting budgets and accomplishing more with less."
Morgan Philpot was not in attendance, but his wife, Natalie Philpot spoke. The candidate speakers for the Senate were Orrin Hatch represented by Dave Hansen followed by Holly Richardson speaking for Dan Liljinquist. Dale Ash said this country is eroding and if it keeps going America will collapse.
For the House of Representatives Jason Chaffetz spoke to the group followed by Scott Loveless who spoke for Lynn Wardle also running for the House of Representatives. For the State Senate race David Hinkins, Mike Stansfield and Stephen Whyte came before the group to spell out why they should be elected to that office.In the State House of Representative race the group heard from Kay McKiff, Leonard Wright and Jerry Anderson. For the office of Attorney General, Debbie Huckstep represented John Swallow. The republican party thanked Tom Hanson a teacher at Emery High School and the following student volunteers assisted Janet Geary and Elaine Hatch with registering the delegates and candidates for office. Devin Wilson, Brandon Tucker, Stetson Bennett, Shelby Allred, Jentrie Allred, Whitney Withers, Jacklyn Hofstetter, Arial Christmas and Dallice Johnson.
This convention gave those in attendance the opportunity to discuss with and listen to the candidates for office in preparation for the Nominating Convention scheduled for April 21 in Sandy.

I Love Tweezerman Tweezers.This kit is awsome. I love the tweezers and the gel is so much better than other eyebrow gells I have used. I would recommend this kit.

Loved It!!!I bought this set and was very satisfied with it. Also folica had the best price, everywhere else its $50. I have owned many Tweezerman tweezers, but these are excellent. Just be careful with them though as they are very sharp and defined. You could hurt yourself if you get too crazy. I would highly recommend this item. This is a great way to have all of your fave tweezing supplies all in one neat package!!!
