"Though hotel guest rooms may hold great potential for cost savings, concerns about the impact of energy-efficiency initiatives on customer satisfaction have kept many hoteliers from investing in energy-management solutions. With recent advances in building-management systems (BMS) and sensors, however, the balance between energy savings and guest comfort easily can be struck."

UEFA European Championship holders France are to play world champions Brazil in a friendly match in 2004.
Vital warm-up
The countries will meet at the Stade de France in Paris on 20 May, one day short of 100 years since the world governing body FIFA was founded in the French capital. Brazil and France are the two top-ranked teams in world football and the game will be important preparation for the French if they qualify for the UEFA EURO 2004™ finals later that summer.
Previous meeting
France are top of qualifying Group 1 and looking good for a place in Portugal. They have won all three of their matches to make it nine points from nine. They last faced Brazil in the semi-finals of the FIFA Confederations Cup in the Korean Republic in June 2001, winning 2-1.

Help! Window goes up; then 1/2 down - stops
This is a good one..
Just shut the car off; hit the window button to bring it up. It goes up, then goes down half-way and stays there. It won't stay in the up position. Tried this a few times with the key in , the key out. The car running, the car off, etc. Same result.
Not too thrilled with this as I leave this car in my driveway.
Hold switch in up position
I had that problem. Pull the window switch up past the resistence point and hold it there. The window will roll up, then back down and then up again. It goes up almost all the way and if you continue to hold the switch up it will ease up the last little bit until it's fully closed.
It's the "pinch protection" that's causing it to roll back down half way. It thinks it caught your finger or something. Holding the switch up overrides the pinch protection system. It's in your owner's manual if my description doesn't make sense.
When it happened to me I planned on taking it to the dealer, but it never did it again. Just had a problem that one day.
Are the windows tinted? We ran into this problem last week and brought our 7er in to the dealer on Monday.. They said they could not repeat the problem, but suddenly as soon as we turned the car on we got the window to do it. They took the car over night and the master Tech. said the cause was the window tint. The SA did not agree with him on that and inserted the problem/question in a PUMA system (its there help system). Hopefully there will be a solution to this problem.
also guys, which window is this happening on? For us, its the passenger side window.

John Turturro Loves Jazz—and Jonathan Schwartz
Actor/director John Turturro knows a lot about music - especially jazz. Born and raised in New York City into a family of musicians, Turturro quickly developed an emotional attachment to NYC and all things music.
Those passions are evident in his latest film, "Fading Gigolo" (released to DVD on August 19th). The movie's soundtrack is full of deep cuts from artists such as Dean Martin & Gene Ammons, and set against the cinematic streets of New York. Turturro chats with The Jonathan Channel about his film's score and the inspiring "collision of sounds and music" that give NYC (or any city) it's pulse.
The conversation wanders from music to the importance of radio and naturally, Jonathan Schwartz. Turturro is a longtime fan and admits that one day he might like to, "play Jonathan Schwartz". Well now, that's something we'd love to see.

Unfortunately, there are no mechanisms in Mathematica's Export[] function
for specifying set names. You may want to use a tool like NCSA's hdfed to
add the desired set names.

If you are working with an eight-bit character encoding, you could transform
the string into an array of characters (e.g. like what is returned by the
built-in Characters[] function) and then write out the array as Byte data

Hat Maker Philip Treacy Says Lady Gaga Fuels His Creativity
Fri, 02 Nov 2012 11:51:37
Lady Gaga Photos
Lady Gaga Videos
British hat designer Philip Treacy loves Lady Gaga. He loves her so much, in fact, that he says working with the pop diva fuels his creativity. Wow. That's a massive compliment, since his hats are works of art and are world-famous.
The British milliner said, "She's a really fun person to work with. She has a different sensibility - a different idea of what's perfect and beautiful. She allows me to be really creative and brings my designs to a whole new audience."
Gaga walked in Treacy's runway show earlier this year. It was she who suggested that she take part in the program, and even flew from Dublin to London to be a part of the festivities.
"I went to see Lady Gaga backstage after seeing her at Twickenham for the Born This Way Ball' and I was telling her about the show and then she just suggested it," the milliner told Vogue.com "It was all her idea. She was going to be in Dublin the night before, so she said that she'd fly over for it. Playing to 80,000 people on one night and then appearing in my show the next? Amazing. Of course I agreed."
How could he not? When Gaga asks to be a model on the catwalk, you let her, especially when she hops a flight to do it.
Have you seen Philip Treacy's out of this world hats? Check 'em out, fashionistas!

Soccer rules (rules of soccer), rules for soccer, soccer rules and regulations, the rules of soccer and soccer rules for kids.
Rules of soccer, rules for soccer, youth soccer rules, the soccer offside rule and soccer age rules are explained.
The official soccer rules are often difficult to understand. Following are simplified soccer rules and links to the complete soccer rules. The official soccer rules are often modified for recreational, youth and indoor soccer leagues. SoccerHelp has helped make these rules easier to understand.
There are links below to over 70 soccer rules, official soccer rules and soccer rules-related definitions.
Who makes the rules? The official soccer rules are called the "Laws of the Game" and are revised annually (usually in July) by FIFA (pronounced "FEE' fuh"), the world soccer governing body, but youth organizations usually adjust the rules to fit children. Typical adjustments are field sizes, game lengths, number of players per team, the number and frequency of substitutions, "offside" is sometimes not called, and slide tackling is sometimes not allowed. Field sizes, ball sizes, length of games & rules vary by age group. The FIFA rules do not require separate teams for girls and boys, but many soccer clubs and associations have separate leagues for boys and girls. Discuss the rule variations with an official of your league. You can find the "Laws of the Game" at FIFA.com (on the FIFA Home Page enter "Laws" in the search feature).
"Our regional director says I'm the most requested coach she's ever seen. SoccerHelp is the reason!!! Every practice game, etc. came from SoccerHelp....WELL DONE!" Coach Mark, Michigan, Premium member
"Your stuff is the best I have ever read. I have been coaching for 35 years and wish I had your insights long ago." Scott, VT
"At every practice we religiously do Dribble Across a Square, Dribble Around A Cone and Pass, etc, etc, - the poise my boys have on the ball is leaps and bounds above other teams now." Coach T, U12 Boys travel team, MA, Premium subscriber
"The patches are the absolute best motivational tool I have found in seven years of coaching three daughters." Chad, CA
What Coaches Say about Our Training Program: 900 Testimonials
Why is it necessary to simplify and interpret the rules? In brief, the "Laws of the Game" are not simple and can be difficult to understand. The official FIFA rules have 17 sections and the rule book is about 70 pages long. There are also an additional 44 pages titled "Questions and Answers". In addition, how to interpret the rules is discussed in referee clinics, special memos, videos for referees, and a guidebook for soccer officials that is over 300 pages long. There is also the problem that the rules use many soccer terms that are not defined in the rules (we try to define all of these terms in the SoccerHelp Dictionary) and there are quirks, such as the fact that terms which are commonly used such as "Hand Ball", "obstruction", and "Linesmen" are not defined in the official rules. Another confusing aspect of the rules is the way "Fouls" are defined; basically, they are defined not only as "Fouls" but also in the rules regarding "Cards". For this reason, to understand "Fouls" you must also read "Cards". One of the biggest problems is that the official rules don't have a good index and there aren't good cross-links to related topics. At SoccerHelp we have tried to solve these problems by simplifying the rules and providing easy to use the links so you can go from one topic to another. In some cases, such as for "offside", we have even provided a simplified explanation and a more detailed definition.
Specific questions or topics: If you have a specific question, we suggest you start below. For example, if you want to read about fouls, start at "Fouls" and then read "Cards" and follow the links. Keep in mind that many of the rules are designed to promote Fair Play and to prevent players from being hurt.
For an overview of the official rules: If you want an overview of the official rules, we suggest you go to FIFA.com and review the Table of Contents of the "Laws of the Game" (on the FIFA Home Page enter "Laws" in the search feature).
Keep in mind that most youth leagues, women's leagues and adult recreational leagues modify the rules: In the topics listed below we mention the typical modifications to the rules that are made by most youth leagues. The modifications that are made are usually to make matches more fun (e.g., smaller fields), safer (e.g., no slide tackling), more evenly matched or to promote a better learning environment (for example, by playing "small sided").

Advanced Cooling Technology for the "Data Center of the Future"
How do you keep your data centers cool? Immerse yourself in a revolutionary two-phase immersion cooling technology and reimagine efficiency.
As the growth of the Internet of Things explodes, so does the data traffic in the cloud, which requires data centers to deliver more performance and storage with less energy consumption. SGI®, 3M™, and Intel® have partnered to develop a revolutionary two-phase immersion cooling technology.
With this revolutionary breakthrough, see how:
This technique has been shown to require 10 times less space than conventional air cooling and eliminates costly air cooling infrastructure and equipment associated with conventional liquid cooling, making it cost effective for large-scale data center hubs. It enables much tighter component packaging - allowing for greater computing power in less space - and easy access to hardware with no residue. In fact, the system can enable up to 100 kilowatts of computing power per square meter.
SGI's industry standard high performance computing technology, coupled with Intel's energy efficient processors, complement 3M's ground-breaking immersion cooling technology that significantly reduces energy and water use and sets the stage for the future of data centers.
To deliver more performance and storage with less energy consumption, contact us or call 1-800-800-7441.

I am still around, even if I haven't had anything to write since June. I'd like to say it's because I've been so busy, but that wouldn't be truthful. I've just been at a complete loss as to what to write about. The last thing I wrote was actually for Develop3D magazine, though it hasn't been published as of yet. Even then, it was about Solid Edge…
What's got me typing away today? I was thinking about a project we just finished up for the Amazon Paperwhite. By 'we', I mean Imagicorps. Anyway, we were tasked with creating an interactive area for consumers. There were various elements that needed to go into it: seating area, individual 'pods', a device bar, informational graphics and other bits and bobs. The coolest part, in my opinion, was the pods. They were designed in SolidWorks (duh) and are compound curves. While they didn't seem like they'd be overly difficult to design, they did present some challenges. One half of one side is a door. Looking down from the top, the left and right sides are concentric, but the seating area inside is rectangular. Then there's the round acrylic windows that fit in each of the side panels, including the door. Oh, and when the potential customer sat down, the acrylic had to go from clear to opaque.
There were other things, too, that we had to figure out, but my point of it all is this: you can design anything in SolidWorks. In the 15 years or so that I've been using it, I've designed a multitude of different things. From hydroforming presses to gate operators to sonar cases. Add in some anti-piracy training facilities, my girlfriend's deck and other miscellaneous things (including a book case for the aforementioned project) and one can see the versatility in just my short resume. Add in all the other examples that are out there and it becomes even more evident.
As soon as I get 2014 up and running again, I'll share my thoughts on it. Hopefully, it won't be another 4 month gap.

Net annual migration to Britain has plunged by a third, in a sign that David Cameron could hit his target of cutting immigration to the tens of thousands by the next election.
Figures from the Office for National Statistics show that 163,000 more people came to this country than departed in the year ending last June. This is 84,000 fewer than the 247,000 net influx over the previous 12 months.
The main reasons were a sharp fall in student arrivals and immigrants from "New Commonwealth" countries such as Pakistan and India. There were also fewer arrivals from Poland and other east European countries.
Immigration minister Mark Harper welcomed the figures and said they were the result of "tough reforms" in areas "where abuse was rife".
In the year to last June, the net inflow of non-Britons was 242,000, down 60,000 on a year earlier. At the same time, there was a net exodus of 79,000 British citizens.
The number of visas issued to Chinese citizens was up by 10 per cent.

Accelerated Cool
In the race to get out in front of the latest trend, the winning strategy is to be yourself.
"In a business where we have to chase Cool, how can we keep up?"
This is the question posed in a new article on The Hundreds, a online mag and clothing company dedicated to keeping tabs on street subculture and general lifestyle trends.
In a mobile Internet Age where (almost) everyone is constantly tapped into a global information source, trends can blow up in a matter of hours, and die just as quickly. So if you happen to be in an industry that tries to cater to these zeitgeisty whims, how does one keep pace?
The Hundreds' answer, and an interesting one to consider, is that in the face of incessant change and an unstoppable stream of cool-mongering, we should try to be ourselves and to "keep it real." Mellowed-out vibe aside, it's worth thinking about how in a world of complete transience, the most natural medium to express change is the self. Rather than constant hunting for cool stuff, just post about what you like to do on your Tumblr or Twitter, and that is what will be considered trendy. And while this might seem a bit too after-school-special-y, in truth it's proved (and not just in a Charlie Sheen way) to be be very successful. The Hundreds phrases it thus:
The secret to success today is keeping it real. Just be yourself. No, really, be yourself. You may not be cool because you're the introverted outcast fat kid who stencils pentagrams on your shoes and eats lunch with the other introverted outcast fat kid who stencils pentagrams on his shoes. But if you load your Tumblr up with Devil-worship imagery and photos of all the chili cheese fries you ate today, now… THAT is Cool. Because you're not pretending to be someone you're not, you're not saying you want to be something you can't. You are owning your identity and embracing the rawness of pure, unfiltered, self.

05-07 is corrrect gotta go back to parts school lol
ok so the hood is out of the way, what about the spoiler?
Also while driving yesterday afternoon I started hearing beeps. They would come in sets of six every 45-60 seconds. I drove to work this morning and no beeps. Sounded like they were coming from the front passenger side. Any ever have this happen?
I think the beeps are the seat belt indicator. Not sure why that is going off when I'm buckled and there is no passenger.
Changed my spark plugs, found some oil on the threads. Thinking that its a valve cover gasket gone bad after doing some research on here. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Also ordered some DEA engine and tranny mounts. Hopefully doesn't take more than 2 weeks to get here.
Doing tranny fluid change. Any one used Royal Purple 75W-80 with a bottle of synchromesh? I wanted to use Redline MTL but no one has it on this god forsaken island.
EDIT: I decided to go with RedLine MT85 which is a 75W-85 GL4 which has synchromesh already in it. I wanted to use MTL but the only carrier for redline gear oil is back ordered for it. MT85 is a little thicker but i think it will be ok because Hawaii doesn't get cold weather. I'll let you know how it turns out.
Lastly going to change my oil and clean my MAF.
If any one else can think of something else to do for maintenance at 100K miles let me know.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 18/6/2014 (1102 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A rash of break-ins in Brandon continued earlier this week.
Police were called to a break-in in the 800-block of Fifth Street on Tuesday that had happened sometime between 7 a.m. that morning and 11:30 p.m. the night before. A men's mountain bike had been stolen from an unlocked garage.
Then, officers went to a business in the 1700-block of Pacific Avenue that had also been broken into sometime overnight. The front door was damaged during the break-in, but nothing was taken from inside.
Similarly, a business in the 400-block of Rosser Avenue also had its front door damaged sometime between Monday at 6:30 p.m. and Tuesday at 9:30 a.m. Again, however, nothing was taken from inside.
Police say there were no witnesses to any of the break-ins and they currently have no witnesses.

- Stylist:
- Keina M
Jun 04, 2010 - I thought I'd had a good cut for curly hair until I saw Keina this past Friday. I didn't know it was possible to make sure a huge difference to how my hair looks and feels, without going to a drastically different style. (like long to short) Keina kept my hair long, but cut off enough to allow it to be healthy and then worked some kind of magic with the front and top that took me from long curtain of heavy hair (with a flat top) to happy bouncy non-flattop hair. She also suggested some products, explaining why, and how to use them every step of the way. The products weren't cheap, but man, I could feel the difference. Generally I'm a drugstore shopper on that front, but now I'm a convert. I've even reproduced her amazing styling successfully myself using those same products and the techniques she described. I have to say, the products were more expensive at the start, but you only need to use a tiny bit of them (even in my mass of hair) so i think things might even out a bit in the long run. Anyhow - if you have curly hair, that you wear curly, and you like for your hair to feel soft and look not frizzy, but actually nice and sproingy and curly - then go here!

New limitations on flashing and animated signs in the unincorporated areas of Salt Lake County are not anti-business. They are anti-ugly.
They are also pro-citizen, pro-traffic safety and, even putting the most cynical spin on it, a move to prove that county government is indeed useful and relevant to the residents of Millcreek Township. That's the area that just last month voted down a proposal to form another city, rejecting the claim that the Salt Lake County Council and government were not sufficiently responsive to the needs and wants of the unincorporated, but highly urbanized, area.
Last week, the County Council voted 6-1 to impose a new set of rules governing the appearance of the increasing number of electronic signs called "electronic message centers" found along many streets and highways. While existing signs will be grandfathered in until they are replaced, new signs in the county-governed territories will be limited in how often they can change messages and how bright and flashy their animated versions can be.
The rules were recommended by several of the area's community councils, including Millcreek's. The members of those panels carried to the county the belief that the signs were popping up in commercial areas in such large numbers as to be not only annoying, but dangerous.
The hope is that by requiring that all future electronic signs hold each message in place for at least four seconds, then wait at least three seconds before displaying the next message, the visual pollution will be reduced. Such signs will still allow business owners to offer more than one message to passers-by, but require them to do so in a way that will not be so dizzyingly distracting to drivers.
Drivers already have enough to contend with without being confronted by an ever-more-glittery array of "Eat here" signs. In addition to all the things that have distracted drivers since the days of Henry Ford children in the back seat, fatigue, missed turns 21st century motorists are all too often dealing with their own personal "electronic message centers" e.g., cellphones.
As flashing and dancing signs become more common, and more elaborate, advertisers in an unregulated atmosphere will be forced into an arms race. In order to be visible to passing drivers, each sign would have to be even brighter, even higher, even more obnoxious than all the others, just to have a chance of being seen.
Rules such as those just approved in the unincorporated areas of Salt Lake County will do much to defuse that spiral of ugliness, and help drivers keep their eyes on the road.

Sir Alex Ferguson can rarely have been happier to do Manchester City a favour. In denting Tottenham Hotspur's Champions League ambitions, Manchester United's manager not only saw his side clamber back above Chelsea at the top of the table but pile immense psychological pressure on Carlo Ancelotti's players.
United's ascendancy may be temporary – their rivals can reclaim top spot with victory over Stoke – yet, despite the surprise absence of Wayne Rooney, they made it plain the title is back on the Old Trafford agenda.
Not all clouds come silver-lined but, in the second half, Rooney's absence permitted Nani to assume centre stage in devastatingly creative fashion before emphasising his sudden indispensability with a sublime goal.
It arrived sandwiched between two Ryan Giggs penalties – amazingly his first in the league– and shortly after Ledley King briefly silenced Old Trafford by equalising. United though are too battle-hardened to be deterred by such minor setbacks. "The most important thing today was that we kept our nerve," said Ferguson. "There were no signs of nerves whatsoever – even after they equalised. Experience helps us."
Harry Redknapp had boldly configured Spurs in a 4-4-2 guise. For a time they threatened to at least hold their hosts to a draw but, ultimately, a Nani-inspired United proved too strong.
"With no Rooney, or Rio Ferdinand, it was a real opportunity," said Redknapp, whose team rarely troubled Edwin van der Sar. "A point would have been massive for us in the race for fourth but poor defending cost us.
"We weren't strong enough to get hold of the ball and play. United pushed their full-backs forward so, if we could have held on to it, we might have done them some damage."
This failure to retain possession proved a recurring theme of an anticlimatic first half. Its underwhelming nature was arguably attributable to the enormous effort expended, especially by Spurs, in high-energy attempts at ball-winning. The downside of such often manic industry was that, with one or two notable exceptions – Luka Modric and Nani – players seemed too mentally tired to conjure defence-splitting passes. Imagination was generally lacking and too many routine efforts went astray.
Tottenham's Tom Huddlestone was a serial culprit. Unfortunately, the resultant pressure on his team-mates to make frantic amends saw Jermain Defoe forced so deep he was unable to menace Jonny Evans and company effectively.
Small wonder one of the biggest early cheers was reserved for Owen Hargreaves – back on United's bench after 580 days out nursing bad knees – as he jogged through a warm-up routine. Shortly afterwards an increasingly influential Dimitar Berbatov, playing against his old club, skilfully controlled Rafael's pass across the 18-yard box before striking a shot just over Heurelho Gomes's crossbar.
The second half began with Patrice Evra being sick on the pitch but he recovered sufficiently to sling in an elusive cross from which Berbatov came close with a header. United had done enough shadow-boxing and the brooding technical area presence of Ferguson, resplendent in a summer suit, reminded them of the desperate need to land some telling blows.
The Scot ventured a rare smile when Benoît Assou-Ekotto's trip on Patrice Evra following Berbatov's clever pass won his side a penalty. It grew considerably broader when, despite Gomes's dive the right way, Giggs squeezed his kick into the corner.
The equaliser originated from another dead ball and featured King outjumping Michael Carrick to connect with Gareth Bales's corner and power the ball past Van der Sar. "I think King will go to the World Cup with England," said Redknapp. "Ledley doesn't train and he needs six days between games. He defies everything you're supposed to do but he's that important I think Capello will take him."
Federico Macheda, Ferguson's young Italian striker, has not made the progress expected of him this season but, very shortly after replacing Rafael, Macheda created United's second goal. Accelerating smartly on to his astute pass, Nani advanced before showing off technical excellence to cheekily lift the ball over the advancing Gomes.
"Nani's finish was absolutely brilliant," enthused Ferguson, who appears unsure whether Rooney will play again this season. "To have the audacity to do that tells you all about the lad's courage."
United's manager is big on mental bravery and devoted part of his programme notes to an ode to Modric, possibly a hint that, should he tire of London, a new home at Old Trafford could await the Croatian.
It was not Modric's fault that several team-mates did not always read his clever passes, thereby wasting many good ideas. Ferguson though will surely have noted the cameo moment when he sold Paul Scholes a dummy.
Yet even Modric could not plot Spurs a path back into the game and, possibly, the Champions League. Instead, when Wilson Palacios shoved Nani over, a second penalty was awarded.
Giggs stepped forward once more and, although Gomes again dived the correct way, the kick's clinical execution defied Redknapp's goalkeeper. The bad news for Chelsea is that Ferguson's entire team seem in similarly ruthless mood.
SHAUN O'DONNELL Observer reader I feel like I played the game myself. The crowd were nervous, especially when it was announced that Rooney wasn't playing, and I think that translated to the players as well. The result was greater than the performance, but you need big-game players on days like this and Vidic was a rock at the back, Scholes was excellent and Nani's finish for his goal was sublime. It was always a worry that Spurs might come back after the run they've been on, but full credit to our team, I thought we had another goal in us and so it proved. Back on top of the table – the pressure is firmly on Chelsea now.
The fan's player ratings Van der Sar 7; Rafael 8 (Macheda 79 n/a); Vidic 9, Evans 8, Evra 7 (O'Shea 67 7); Fletcher 9, Nani 8, Scholes 9, Giggs 8; Valencia 8 (Carrick 59 7); Berbatov 7
DAVE MASON Observer reader I couldn't understand why Harry didn't keep the basic structure of the team that beat Arsenal and Chelsea – he didn't need to bring Palacios back and Assou-Ekotto at right-back is an accident waiting to happen. Sure enough it was his stupid challenge that gave United the first goal. However, after we equalised and with subs Lennon and Gudjohnsen looking lively we really looked like we might win it until Nani scored. That's now 67 matches since we won at one of the Big Four. Nonetheless, I'm delighted with six points from the last three games and with City still to come it's still up for grabs.
The fan's player ratings Gomes 7; Assou‑Ekotto 5, Dawson 7, King 7, Bale 6; Bentley 5 (Lennon 66 6), Huddlestone 6, Palacios 6, Modric 6; Pavlyuchenko 6 (Crouch 75 5), Defoe 5 (Gudjohnsen 55 7)

text: RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., March 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- ViiV Healthcare today issued a new request for letters of interest (LOIs) for the sixth round of its Positive Action Southern Initiative – inviting community organizations in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi to submit an LOI to support programs focused on reducing disparities in HIV/AIDS linkages to care and treatment among at-risk populations in their communities. Based on the tangible results achieved through the program thus far, it has grown in the past four years into a network of nearly 30 organizations. With today's announcement, that number will again increase, and the Positive Action Southern Initiative will have committed over $2.7M toward funding local projects to improve care and services for people living with or at risk for HIV/AIDS in this disproportionately-impacted region. "Supporting local HIV/AIDS organizations that understand the specific issues impacting their communities and can deliver hands-on solutions is an integral component of achieving the goals outlined in the National HIV/AIDS Strategy," said Bill Collier, Head of North America, ViiV Healthcare. "With round six of the Initiative, we look forward to welcoming new organizations to the network who can help build on successes achieved through the program and work in collaboration with other network members to meet persistent needs in the Southern United States." The Positive Action Southern Initiative is a collaborative, community-focused program that supports existing initiatives responding to the complexity of the HIV/AIDS continuum of care – from linking people living with HIV into care, to enhancing their treatment adherence, and delaying disease progression. Designed to address these gaps in care and treatment, which have been documented through the Gardner Cascade, the Positive Action Southern Initiative reflects the White House National HIV/AIDS Strategy by directing resources to areas and populations that have the greatest need. With particular focus on reducing disparities among African-American and Latino populations, the Positive Action Southern Initiative currently operates in 10 Southern states – Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. Racial and ethnic minorities have been disproportionately affected by HIV/AIDS since the beginning of the epidemic, representing 68 percent of all new AIDS diagnoses in 2011, with new infection rates highest among African-American adults and adolescents. [i] These health disparities are particularly prevalent in the Southern U.S. In Alabama, 68 percent of newly diagnosed individuals were African-American in 2012, despite comprising 26 percent of the population in the state.[ii] In Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi, more than 70 percent of all new HIV infections impacted African-Americans and young people.[iii] , [iv] , [v] Through the Positive Action Southern Initiative, selected organizations that work to tackle these disparities and their root causes will be awarded up to $50,000 per year for a provisional commitment over the next two years. "Over the past four years we've seen how the Southern Initiative fosters programs and partnerships that affect meaningful change and successfully address gaps in the HIV/AIDS continuum of care," said Erik Valera, Program Director, Latinos in the Deep South at the Latino Commission on AIDS. "This program offers a unique opportunity for community-based organizations to expand successful programs, and to collaborate and share effective strategies for addressing unmet needs among the most at-risk and most impacted populations in these communities." Southern Initiative Application Process The latest phase of the program focuses on supporting U.S. minorities, as well as high-risk individuals in linkages to care and adherence. Priority will be given to projects that address critical gaps in services.

"Coach Pruitt switches up the depth chart every day," said freshman cornerback Shaq Jones from Palm Bay, Fla., who works at the same corner spot as Damian Swann. "He tells us not to worry about the depth chart because the depth chart isn't really telling us who's going to play. He's telling us to keep working and we'll find out when it's time for the game."
Rico Johnson from Swainsboro, a freshman who moved from receiver this summer, said Tuesday he's gotten first-team reps at cornerback opposite Swann the last two days.
He said Pruitt told him not to look at it like he's starting and to go out and compete.
"That's what I'm doing," Johnson said. "I'm just going out there and competing and giving it my all. …I have a special gift that they don't have. I have speed. That helps me a lot."
Parrish, from Brooks County, is working at cornerback and at the star nickel back position.
He had a fumble recovery in the scrimmage.
"I'm not really excited about it, but it feels good that I can perform under pressure," Parrish said. "I try not to let things like that get to my head."
He said he may get lost at times pre-snap on defense, but still goes hard every snap. The 5-foot-10, 194-pound Parrish said the star position allows him to play at a slower pace.
"It fits me well," he said. "I just like the physical part of being in the box. I always wanted to be a linebacker. …This is my chance to show that I can actually play inside the box."
This and that
Tailback Todd Gurley and inside linebacker Ramik Wilson are on SI.com's Preseason All-America team. Georgia is ranked No. 12 in ESPN's The Magazine preseason rankings … Carter, who also played basketball at Norcross, said he's thought about playing on the Bulldogs' basketball team and has even talked to coach Mark Fox and assistant Philip Pearson in June about the possibility. "I might, I don't know," he said. … Georgia has its fourth and final two-a-day practice on Wednesday, going in the morning and at night.

'How to win championships is the question now facing the Sabres new front office. General manager Darcy Regier will at least finish this season and no longer does he have any excuses. He may claim that some past personnel decisions were due to factors out of his control, but that excuse won't work anymore. Pegula has essentially given Regier a blank check to work to the salary cap with regard to player contracts and spend as much money as he seems necessary in other aspects of the organization.'

A recent article said that raising a child costs an average family $235,000 from birth to 17. While that probably seems hard to imagine as a new or parent-to-be, but ask any parent with at least a six-month old and they know that babies and all their "stuff" add up. And by "stuff" I'm not even talking about the perfect stroller (which I've yet to find and have five), but your baby's style – like clothes, shoes and even their diapers.
I got a glimpse of my grim (and poor) future when I was pregnant with my daughter and purchased a white Burberry onesie. Not only should a baby not wear while, but there is no use for Burberry on a one-year old. I don't even have any Burberry!
So in efforts to help you rather than to pretend it's not important, here are a couple of tips from this mom on head-to-toe baby style (not to be exemplified on mom's own capacity to be stylish.) Besides, when your kiddo is 17 they won't hate you for putting them in that ugly Elephant outfit if you put them in some of these designer shoes!
One-stop shopping that cute for all ages
I'm so excited to share some new happenings from one of our favorite stores, The Children's Place! While I have been a fan of The Children's Place for the kids when they hit those toddler years, when they were infants it seemed like their baby section was limited. However, the store is now understanding that moms don't have time to go to several stores to score all our kiddos' clothes, so they've revved up their under 12 months old department and appropriately named it BABY PLACE! Now not only can you grab all your uniforms and staple items, but can also get clothing for the baby too! And best of all, they say during the holidays, you'll be able to find coordinating outfits for all ages…(yes, I said that and you probably will too!)
Also, for those of you that already have kids, right now there are so good deals going on in store and online as well as $20 cash back when you spend $40!
Consignment shopping
If you like dressing your kids as much as I do, you'll go broke – no matter how much money you have! Thankfully, nowadays being thrifty is nifty, so sales like JustBetween Friends and Rhea Lana have become celebrated bi-annual events for moms. Whether you are selling or buying, these events make having young children affordable and you benefit from those moms who buy all the nice clothes for their kids and take care of them! When kids only wear things 2-3 times when they are under 1, it doesn't make sense to invest in really expensive clothing, but your kids can if you are willing to look and go early at these not-to-miss sales. So just go to these websites, save the dates and make sure you get there before the crowds do!
Step in Style with her first pair of designer shoes!
If you follow me, you know I prefer to be barefoot, but still love the art of a beautiful shoe. And given the opportunity to have a pair of my own Stuart Weitzmans, I would probably put them in a shrine to look at every day rather than wear them. So get almost the fun out of a having a pair and for a whole lot cheaper, get your baby fashionista her own pair of My First Weitzman. Available from newborn to 12 months in a broad range of colors and styles, any stylish mom and her baby will thrilled to have a pair! This perfect gift item comes beautifully packaged in a pink signature box. (And did I mention they are less than $30?)
You can be stylish all the way to their undies
Having your baby all dolled up doesn't end with the dress and the shoes. With designer disposable diapers and adorable cloth diapers, your baby can look good with hardly anything but their bottoms! Now while I am not a cloth diaper mama, I have tons of friends who are and claim it really is easy as well as much more inexpensive and not to mention more environmentally friendly. So when I was received a few samples of adorable cloth nappies from Ones & Twos that grew with you from ages 0-2, my curiosity made me want to try cloth diapers (only as a test.) Once I read the instructions a few times and popped online to the cloth diapering pros at Pooters, I felt I could do it…and since we weren't going anywhere for the evening, why not?
In the words of Paul Harvey, "and the rest of story..."?:
Actually there really wasn't one. I didn't love the part about washing them after the mess, so I know I would outsource that part to the professionals. But all together, I can proclaim it can be done…(at least once that is!)
Just face it kids cost money. A lot. But by being smart and being willing to pair a little hand-me-down Ralph with a brand new pair of Stuart Weitzmans, your baby will still be the belle of the ball!
Disclaimer: I was provided products from The Children's Place, Ones&Twos and Stuart Weitzman for purposes of this review, however, all the comments here are all my own.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Employees who file suit against their employer for unpaid overtime or minimum wages are permitted to bring the suit on their own behalfandon behalf of similarly situated individuals. However, the group cannot proceed together against their employer until a showing has been made that the group is indeed similarly situated, referred to as "conditional class certification." A new tactic to avoid conditional class certification has recently emerged and will be ruled on by the Supreme Court.
Under this tactic, at the outset of the case, and before a motion for conditional class certification, the employer makes a formal offer to the Named Plaintiff of his full damages plus attorney fees and costs. Nothing is offered for members of the putative class. Employers argue that if the employee accepts, the case cannot proceed as a class because the Named Plaintiff no longer has any monetary interest in the litigation. In a Catch 22, if the Named Plaintiff declines the offer he has similarly shown that he has no monetary interest in the litigation because he has declined the full amount of damages he could win at trial.
In Genesis HealthCare Corp. v Symczyk, the plaintiff sued her employer on behalf of herself and other similarly situated nurses for unpaid meal breaks. She alleged damages for unpaid wages, attorney fees, and costs. The employer offered her $7,500, the full value of her individual claim. When she refused to accept the offer because she wished to pursue her claims on behalf of all affected employees, the employer moved to dismiss. The District Court granted the employer's motion, but the decision was reversed by the Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
The Third Circuit, following similar reasoning in cases involving Fed. R. Civ. P. 23 classes, declined to accept this strategy to short circuit conditional class certification. InSymczyk v. Genesis HealthCare Corp., 656 F. 3d 189 (3rd Cir. 2011), the Court held that action are not mooted by these pre-certification offers of judgment. Instead, when a motion for conditional certification is filed, it "relates back" to the date when the lawsuit was filed andbeforethe effort to moot the Named Plaintiff's claims was made.
The Supreme Court for the United States will soon decide a case where an employer used this tactic. The Court's decision in this case will impact strategic decisions by both employers and employees in collective actions under the FLSA.

Riverside County Supervisors oppose Agency's plan for more stringent drinking water standards
Supervisors oppose plan by California Department of Public Health aimed at reducing Chromium 6 in water
PALM DESERT, Calif. - The Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday to oppose a plan by the California Department of Public Health to raise drinking water standards -- and consequently increase many Riverside County water customers' bills -- in order to reduce the amount of chromium-6 in aquifers.
``This is a very big problem looming for us,'' said Supervisor John Benoit. ``We're requesting that the state delay this and do further studies. It's noble to ensure the cleanest drinking water available. But this is a standard that's not applicable anywhere else in the nation.''
The health department is seeking to limit chromium-6 to 10 parts per billion in wells and reservoirs throughout the state. The agency is giving concerned parties until Oct. 11 to submit comments on the proposal, which if approved, would take effect immediately under regulations approved by the Legislature in 2004.
``There are a hundred different drinking water wells in the Coachella Valley. The average level of chromium-6 is 9 parts per billion. But it can range as high as 22 parts per billion,'' said Steve Bigley director of environmental services for the Coachella Valley Water District.
During an off-site board meeting in Palm Desert, Bigley explained that 10 parts per billion is equivalent to 10 drops of water or any other liquid source in a 10,000-gallon swimming pool.
Chromium-6, also known as hexavalent chromium, received notoriety in the film ``Erin Brockovich'' for its impact on the residents of Hinkley, Calif. In that case, carcinogenic levels turned up in drinking water as a result of industrial pollution.
However, according to Bigley, most of the chromium-6 uncovered in Coachella Valley aquifers can be traced to natural soil erosion at or near quake fault lines.
``Chromium is an essential component, a nutrient our body needs,'' said Supervisor Jeff Stone, a licensed pharmacist. ``Centuries ago, when we didn't have vitamins, people got chromium supplements from the water they drank. Ten parts per billion is practically nothing.''
According to Benoit, filtering out groundwater chromium-6 at the micron- level proposed by the state entails constructing treatment facilities that are expensive to build and operate -- costs that will have to be passed on to consumers.
The supervisor estimated the average Coachella Valley water customer could see his or her bill go up $500 a year if the new standards are put in place.
Supervisor Jeff Stone said water users in Idyllwild, where both high levels of chromium-6 and uranium have been found, could expect similar increases. Estimates for other parts of the county were not immediately available.
Benoit said the California Department of Public Health should undertake a more thorough cost-benefit analysis before moving toward implementation. State health officials have estimated the average ratepayer would only see a $64 spike in water costs -- a figure that ``severely underestimates the cost impacts to Coachella Valley" residents, Benoit said.
The board vote included a resolution that will be forwarded to the Department of Public Health, as well as a directive to state lobbyists to take up the county's cause with policymakers.

Presage (formerly Soothsayer) is an intelligent predictive text entry system. Presage generates predictions by modelling natural language as a combination of redundant information sources. Presage computes probabilities for words which are most likely to be entered next by merging predictions generated by the different predictive algorithms. Presage's modular and extensible architecture allows its language model to be extended and customized to utilize statistical, syntactic, and semantic predictive algorithms. Presage's predictive capabilities are implemented by predictive plugins. Predictive plugins use services provided by the platform to implement multiple prediction techniques.

Citation: Busch, D.C., Atkins, J.A., Bader, J.F., Schafer, D.J., Patterson, D.J., Geary, T.W., Smith, M.F. 2005. Effect of ovulatory follicle size and expression of estrus on progesterone secretion in beef cows. Journal of Animal Science 83(Suppl. 1):217 (#307). Interpretive Summary: abstract only
Technical Abstract: Induced ovulation of small dominant follicles (sdf, <12 mm; CO-Synch protocol) in postpartum beef cows resulted in formation of CL that exhibited a delayed rise in progesterone (P4; P < 0.05) compared to CL that formed from large dominant follicles (ldf, >12 mm). The objective was to characterize P4 concentrations (0-60 d post AI) among GnRH-induced or spontaneously ovulated sdf (< or =12 mm) or ldf (> or =13mm) to determine whether P4 secretion by CL formed from GnRH-induced sdf remains lower during early gestation. Postpartum beef cows were induced to ovulate 48 h after PGF2a (CO-Synch) or undergo spontaneous estrus and ovulation. Follicle size was measured at AI in cows induced to ovulate or 12 h after onset of estrus for cows that ovulated spontaneously. Cows were classified into one of three groups: 1) sdf (< or =12 mm)- GnRH-induced ovulation (SF-I; n=9); 2) ldf (> or = 13 mm)-GnRH-induced ovulation (LF-I; n=38); or 3) ldf (> or =13 mm)-spontaneous estrus and ovulation (LF-S; n=26). Blood samples were collected every other day for 60 d beginning at AI (d 0). The rate of P4 secretion was increased (P=0.06) in pregnant (d 2-12) compared to nonpregnant cows. Although the rate of increase in P4 from d 2-12 was higher (P=0.01) in the LF-I compared to the SF-I groups, there was no difference (P=0.94) among groups in P4 from d 14-60 in pregnant cows. Pregnant cows in the LF-S group, however, had higher rate of increase in P4 from d14-60 compared to pregnant cows induced to ovulate. Follicle size at AI influenced the rate of P4 increase in cows that failed to conceive (P=0.007), but not among cows that became pregnant (P=0.32) to AI. The regression of follicle diameter at AI on serum P4 on d 6 was significant (P=0.002) and linear in cows induced to ovulate, but not among cows that ovulated spontaneously. In summary, P4 secretion following GnRH-induced ovulation of small dominant follicles was decreased from d 2-12 compared to large dominant follicles, but similar among pregnant cows from d 14-60 post AI (d 0).

I was extremely happy with my last set of Nokians. I got 50,000 plus miles out of them.
This is my second set, they are the WRG2 with 26,000 miles. Mostly city and highway driving. Absolutely no off-roading on this set since day one.
Recently I noticed the front tire treads are ripping off on the edges.
1. Is this normal wear and tear?
2. 50,000 mile warranty, you think they will just set me up with 2 new tires? Required to replace all 4 at once because it is all-wheel drive correct?
3. Anyone else have warranty experiences with Nokian?
2 bad tires
Rear tires still look ok since last rotation.
