- Stylist:
- Luann Andes (owner)
Aug 31, 2012 - I've been going to Defining Image for over a year now. I am in my late 50's and have always had curly, frizzy hair. I used to spend hours straightening. Stylists in other salons just didn't get how to cut and style my hair, so most times I would go home, wet my hair and restyle. I went to Defining Image because of the reviews I read on this web site but the experience was so much more than I ever expected. LuAnne instantly becomes your friend. She treats you like you are the most important person in the world while you are sitting in her chair. She also acknowledges that you know your hair better than anyone else so she will ask you to teach her how you manage your own hair, then work with you to develop the right cut, style and color. LuAnne also realizes that we all have preferences for how we style our own hair. I have really difficult hair to style, so one day I brought in spin hair dryer and showed her how I dry my hair to smooth it out and have more gentle curls. Since then she encourages me to bring it when I come in and lets me style my own hair. No more going home to restyle. If you are looking for a salon where you can totally relax and enjoy your salon experience, Defining Image and LuAnn Andes are the best in the business. Even if you don't live in the Plymouth Michigan area, it's worth making the trip.

text: Hey guys im using a 97 passat with a vr6 in a bone stock fwd v4/6 series. My car is running pretty strong I'm just working on fine tuning the handling of my car. The track has I would say a medium banking. The camber on my car has to be stock so its sitting at -1deg RF and my LF is +1deg. (this is the most i can get out of them) My tires/pressures im using are:185-60 25PSI LF195-65 32PSI RF195-65 24PSI RR195-65 20PSI LRRight now my car is tight in the turns. Im trying to turn but the tires are starting to turn a bit sideways and its pushing up to the wall coming out of the turn and during the middle of the turn. I'm very new to this racing and only have a couple races under my belt. Im looking for some suggestions as to how to help with this issue. My car is fast on the straight but I seem to be losing time in the corners. Im supposed to run all stock components so I am fairly limited to adjusting tire pressures and tire sizes (cant change rim sizes). I may be able to heat up a spring to weaken it if that will help. or if there is any more tricks of the trade LMK.Thanks for your time and your help,Kevin

Captain's excellent post earlier this week, about love, got me thinking about what true love is really all about.
It's fair to say that "love" is a much maligned and abused word in our modern culture.
Often the word "love" is wrongly substituted for the word "lust" or "sex".
At other times love is wrongly presented as nothing more than feeling good about something or someone.
But most often of all, love is wrongly used as a substitute for the words "blind tolerance".
Such misconceptions, even though they are usually subconscious and not even thought about by the person doing the substituting, often lead to serious errors in thought, word and deed.
As St Thomas Aquinas once said "a small error in the beginning is a great error in the end".
If we don't have a proper understanding of love then the chances are high that we will get one heck of a lot of things wrong in our lives.
Because love is the greatest of all the virtues, it is the very reason that we were created and exist, and it should underpin and guide everything that we do in life.
But if we don't understand what true love really is then we end up leading ourselves down some rather strange paths indeed.
Let me explain how little misconceptions can lead to very large misconceptions.
Captain talked about St Francis, so I'll mention him here as well becasue he is an excellent example of an often misunderstood and misrepresented Saint.
People often have this image of St Francis as this placid, animal loving guy with brown robes and a perfect beard, who was always playing the guitar and singing "brother sister, let me serve you" – a kind of very early predecessor to the 1960's hippy (thanks largely to Franco Zeffirelli's film; "Brother Sun, Sister Moon") but in actual fact, the real St Francis couldn't be further from this picture
In fact I believe that he would challenge, frighten and offend the living daylights out of most of us on this blog if he was still alive on earth today.
Let me give you an example from the writings of St Francis himself:
All praise be yours, my Lord, through Sister Death,
From whose embrace no mortal can escape.
Woe to those who die in mortal sin
Happy those She finds doing your will!
The second death can do no harm to them.
Now imagine if that appeared on this blog as a comment!
St Francis wrote his very own Office Office of the Passion and he promoted art, prayer and meditation on Christ's suffering.
St Francis was the second man in the history of the church to experience the stigmata (the physical wounds of Jesus' crucifixion) and he regularly practised acts of corporal mortification.
St Francis even went to the Holy Land to preach the Gospel and convert the Muslims (shock horror, he tried to convert Muslims!) During this period of the Crusades, he fully expected to become a martyr in his quest to bring the word of God to an Islamic sultan.
He left with a small group of brothers, and was captured and beaten. Eventually he found himself in Cairo, there he entered into vigorous theological debates with Islamic scholars (even more shock horror – he engaged in theological debates!) The Islamic sultan was so impressed with St Francis' example and words that he even rewarded him with a gift.
And St Francis wrote the following about the fate of those who die in a state of mortal sin:
"The devil tears his soul from his body with so much anguish and tribulation"
"Worms eat the body; and so perishes body and soul in that brief life span and he shall go to hell."
How would you feel if that statement appeared on this blog?
My point is that just like we can have misconceptions about St Francis, we can also have misconceptions about true love that lead us to believe that it means that we must ignore sin and tolerate every idea as if all ideas are all equally valid and equally true.
But this is not true love and it is definitely not the example of St Francis, or the example of Jesus.
St Francis shows us that true love is about BOTH words and actions – but both must be motivated by love of Christ which leads to love of our neighbour.
Often people misquote the Gospel passage where Christ calls us to "love your neighbour as yourself" – but they forget the first part of that passage where Jesus states that the greatest commandment of all is to "love the Lord with all your heart, mind and soul" and that the commandment to love your neighbour is second on the list.
Often we allow our misconceptions to turn our love of neighbour into blind tolerance, and then we mistakenly put love of man before love of God.
This usually turns into a desire to please and appease, rather then to tell the truth no matter what it might cost us or how unpopular that might make us.
Jesus lived and breathed true love, and because of this he wasn't a people pleasing jellyfish.
How would we feel if we saw someone smashing the sales table at the back of our Church with a whip?
Or if someone on this post began claiming that they "hadn't come to bring peace, but a sword", or they told another blog-poster to "get behind me Satan"?
If these things make us feel uncomfortable then we need to have another, more careful read of the Gospels, because Christ did all of these things during his time here on earth.
We also need to take another look at the lives of the saints, because their love for Christ wasn't just about looking holy and giving out Jesus flavoured hugs.
Their love was deep, it was heroic and it was truly challenging, because it was the love of Christ.
It placed God, His Church and his commands above anything else in their lives, and that love was guided totally by all of these things.
That love was challenging because it loved others in a manner that put their eternal happiness and salvation ahead of their feelings, or feeling good in this life.
Love is a virtue, not just a mere value.
A value is subjective and can change on a whim, but a virtue is objective, clearly defined and unchanging.
True love for our fellow man is always motivated by placing love of God first, and the needs of our fellow man well ahead of the wants and desires of our fellow man.
True love is beautiful like a rose, but just like a rose, true love is sometimes thorny and uncomfortable because it proclaims the truth no matter what – and often people find the truth a very thorny and uncomfortable thing to handle.
When we read this blog are we made uncomfortable by the words being written, or by the the truths those words are talking about? (the truths that make us just a little uncomfortable about our own ideas, actions and ways of living.)
True love is not about external actions without words, just as much as it is not about discussion without external actions.
True love is about words and actions TOGETHER, that are motivated by love and framed in prayer.
If we look to our ultimate example; Christ, we see him engaging in regular theological debates, charitable acts and most importantly of all; prayer.
We aren't called to be mere social workers who go to Mass.
We are called to BE Christ, and to BE Christ requires us to imitate all the aspects of his earthly life and ministry – not just the acts of justice he did, or the theological debates and discussions, or the bits we like best.
Christ engaged in theological discussions, he prayed and he did practical works.
True love doesn't seek to separate these three for a more palatable/marketable Christianity; true love seeks to do ALL three, no matter what the cost may be.
Let me finish by leaving you with St Francis' "Prayer before the Crucifix", which I believe nicely sums up our call to action that is guided by moral truth and motivated by prayer:
Most high, glorious God, enlighten the darkness of my heart and give me Lord, a correct faith, a certain hope, a perfect charity, sense and knowledge, so that I may carry out Your holy and true command.
Ps – I would also like to take this opportunity to say sorry to all concerned for the moments over the past week or so when I let my emotions get the better of me, and then manifest themselves in acts of uncharitable speech on this blog.

Hey there!
I do go to gym daily and even got me a personal trainer to get my back muscles (and other places ) well build and strong. I couldn't even survive this job without that physical and mental outlet Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be enough.
I guess it also comes down to your body type, shape and bone structure or whatever when it comes to how prone you are for back pain. Some survive on a PVC for 12 years while I cannot pass half a year on my boss chair.

Tell me about itI recently purchased a back massager that I'll use if I'm feeling the onset of pain and it's been working pretty well.
You sold me at "massager" – what did you get? Do you have a link maybe? I'd appreciate it a lot!
Thanks so much again!
I got this one – http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/icomfort-icomfort-hand-held-massager-ic0943-white-ic0943/10233073.aspx?path=5877a7d0092289d13ddf428b6fbd4d8ben02
It's a bit of a beast but I like that I can hold it over my shoulder and it reaches down to my lower back. The two massage knobs work great for massaging on each side of the spine as well.
I got this one:
Coupled with a Logitech trackball to avoid wrist issues:
Best ergonomic setup so far for me.

|Sex is stepping out from under the bedroom sheets in movies all over Asia.
Asian cinema seems to have come out of its hijab, stripping away the customary inhibitions that have put a lid on its steamy side for decades. While Western cinema made sexuality a part of its principal narrative a long, long ago, Asian producers were far more inhibited. Not surprising for a society where sex had been strictly put under the bedroom sheets until the winds of globalization, MTV, AIDS, and pornographic MMSes swept the pretentious covers off.
Fascination with the lives and dreams of transvestites and cross-dressers is not limited to India. They have also been charmingly portrayed in recent Thai films such as Iron Ladies (2000; 2003) and Beautiful Boxer (2003). Based on a true story, the Thai film Iron Ladies is the hilarious depiction of a team of transvestites and cross-dressers who become hugely successful as volleyball players. Similarly, based on the true story of Thailand's famed transvestite kickboxer, Ekachai Uekrongtham's Beautiful Boxer is a poignant action drama of a boy who wants to become a woman. Believing he's a girl trapped in a boy's body, the protagonist begins a journey to "master the most masculine and lethal sport of Muay Thai (Thai boxing) to earn a living and to achieve his ultimate goal of total femininity."
Far from Thailand, who would have thought that Iranian producers would tackle sexual themes? The heart-warming and soul-stirring Iranian films thus far have shied away from exploring sexuality on screen. However, Iranian actress-director Niki Karimi has bucked the trend with One Night. Though the film is not overtly sexual, it obliquely portrays transgression and infidelity in Iranian society. The film, set in Teheran, revolves around Negar, who in the course of a night encounters three men who have three disparate stories to tell her. The three men reveal their relationships with the women in their lives. The first lives in Teheran, away from his wife and son, and makes an advance at the protagonist. The second, a soft-spoken doctor, lives with his mother-his beloved has left for the US for good. The third story has a man who has murdered his unfaithful wife and is driving around with her dead body in the car.
Not too far behind its Chinese counterpart is Bollywood, the world's largest film factory, which has undergone a transformation in the morality department. While the bawdy pelvic thrusts are still intact, now there are more films in the market that openly discuss sexuality such as Aitraaz (Objection), Khwahish (Desire), and Murder. The recent trend started with movies like Ek Chhoti Si Prem Kahani (One Small Love Story), Julie, Market and Oops. While Aitraaz (2004), a Bollywoodian take on Berry Levinson's Disclosure, dealt with sexual harassment, Khwahish (2003) and Murder (2004) were about love and lust. In both the films, the promotional claims touted "the lovemaking scenes featured bare backs, cleavage and passionate kissing"-marking a major departure for Bollywood's cinematic approach to onscreen depiction of sex. The success of these two films have won its heroine Mallika Sherawat the sobriquets of "the kissing queen of India," "international sex symbol," and even "Indian post-feminist icon."
"Sex has been pulled out of the closet and actors have become more willing to experiment with their images. The latest Bollywood heroines seem to be taking a page out of Mae West's book: When they are good, they are very good, but when they are bad, they're better," writes Anupama Chopra in her article "The Bollywood girl: From virgin to vamp" published in The New York Times (July 22, 2005

Civil War Ghosts(1991)
An anthology of stories edited by John Jakes and Charles G Waugh
Some of these stories were written at the time of the Civil War and some decades later. Some center on Union soldiers, others on Confederates. But what unifies them is the horror of the losses sustained, a horror that finally cannot be measured in numbers or dollars but can only be conveyed in the language of our nation's imagination.

A Minute With: Julianne Moore on being Sarah Palin
By Jill Jacobs
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Julianne Moore has played a range of film characters from a cocaine snorting porn star in "Boogie Nights" to a lesbian cheating mom in "The Kids Are All Right," and she's been Oscar nominated four times for movies including "The Hours."
On Saturday, the 51-year-old takes on another complicated role, portraying real-life conservative firebrand politician Sarah Palin in HBO's "Game Change."
The TV movie, which is based on Mark Halperin and John Heilemann's book of the same name, offers a dramatization of the Republican 2008 campaign and failed presidential bid of John McCain (Ed Harris), as told through the eyes of senior strategist Steve Schmidt (Woody Harrelson).
With a strong vocal impression and uncanny physical resemblance to Palin, Moore delivers the one-time vice president nominee Palin in a role that already has some industry watchers buzzing with Emmy predictions. Reuters sat down with Moore to talk about her role in the film and her work outside acting.
Q: Was it hard playing someone who is still living?
A: "I've never played a living figure, and the responsibility of that is enormous. She's extremely well-known and still very present. She's a correspondent on Fox. I certainly felt a real responsibility not to do anything that was not corroborated by the writer."
Q: Sarah Palin is a polarizing figure who engenders many different opinions. Are you ready for viewers' responses?
A: "There's been already been a strong response to the movie. But the film is well-researched and well-documented. What became evident and what we dramatize is the fact that she was not vetted to the extent that they usually vet a candidate. They were in a hurry. They needed a running mate, and I think the vetting process was maybe somewhat more cursory than it should have been. And as they find out more and more about her, they realize that she doesn't know much about foreign policy, and that became evident to the American people, particularly with Charlie Gibson, Sean Hannity as well and Katie Couric."

Nyad defends record-breaking Cuba-U.S. swim against doubters
By Chris Francescani
NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. long-distance swimmer Diana Nyad vigorously defended on Tuesday her record-breaking, 110-mile (177-km) swim from Cuba to southern Florida after skeptics raised questions about the grueling trek.
"I swam ... in squeaky-clean, ethical fashion," Nyad told a conference call late on Tuesday that included journalists and fellow marathon swimmers, some of whom have publicly questioned aspects of her challenging journey.
"I honored the rules," Nyad said at the start of the conference call. "I was an ethical swimmer."
A triumphant Nyad, 64, staggered ashore in Key West, Florida, on September 2, after having swum about 53 hours, to become the first person to complete the treacherous crossing without a shark cage.
Nyad's swim was her fifth attempt and only successful one. The highly publicized crossing sparked a social media debate about whether her journey meets the requirements to break the world record.
Some have questioned how Nyad was able to more than double her pace about halfway to Florida, and have wondered whether she was towed at any points by tracking boats.
Marathon swimmer Evan Morrison was among a number of members of the long-distance swimming community who publicly questioned Nyad's feat on social media.
"In reading through Diana's crew's live-blog, trying to suss out how this incredible swim happened, I was struck by how little information there actually was," Morrison wrote on the online Marathon Swimmers Forum. Continued...

∙ iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus (Apple Pay in stores and within apps)
∙ iOS 8.1 or later
∙ United States as your selected region
∙ Touch ID or passcode on your device
∙ iCloud account
Apple Pay is more secure than using a traditional credit or debit card. Every transaction on your iPhone or iPad requires you to authenticate with Touch ID or your passcode. Your Apple is protected by the passcode that only you know, and your passcode is required every time you put on your Apple Watch. Your card number and identity aren't shared with the merchant, and your actual card numbers aren't stored on your device or on Apple servers.
You can use Apple Pay with your iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, and Apple Watch to pay in stores that accept contactless payments.
Some stores might have this symbol on their card readers and point of sale terminals, but they might not be currently set up to accept contactless payments, including Apple Pay. At the current time,
this includes 7-Eleven, Home Depot, Jack in the Box, Rite Aid, and CVS. If you can't use Apple Pay at a store that is displaying the contactless payment symbol, please let us know using our Apple Pay feedback form. www.apple.com/feedback/apple-pay.html
On iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, you can use Apple Pay to pay within apps when you see the Buy with
Apple Pay or Apple Pay button as a payment method.
With Apple Pay, you authorize each purchase with Touch ID or your passcode. These features help prevent other people from using Apple Pay on your iPhone. You can call C∙U∙D to suspend or remove your cards from Apple Pay. You can also go to icloud.com/find or use the Find My iPhone app to suspend or permanently remove the ability to pay from that device with Apple Pay. Your cards will be suspended or removed from Apple Pay even if your device is offline and not connected to a cellular or Wi-Fi network.
As you do today with a plastic credit or debit card, you might need to sign a receipt, depending on the store and the transaction amount.
Yes. When you pay using Apple Pay, you'll continue to get the rewards, benefits, and security that your credit or debit card provides.

Credit Unions are not-for-profit, member-owned financial cooperatives. Unlike for-profit banks whose purpose is to increase the wealth of their stockholders, often at the expense of their customers, credit unions' purpose is to give our members the best value and service possible.
Banks are for-profit companies that exist to generate high levels of profit for their stockholders. Bank stockholders elect a paid board of directors to run the bank and to financially benefit stockholders, not the bank's depositors. Credit unions are not-for-profit organizations that were founded on the idea of "people helping people". They are member-owned and exist to serve their members, with a volunteer board of directors.

Mortgage Loans
Even though C·U·D does not offer First Mortgage to purchase a home, we are proud to team with Centennial Lending.
We offer many options to make your equity work for you with great rates. For a full list of our mortgage products click here.
Is my loan-to-value (LTV) ratio less than 80%?
Your LTV is the relationship between the current outstanding balance of your loan and the collateral's value. This relationship helps us decide how much you can borrow. This can be applied to any loan type that is tied to a piece of collateral.
If we are talking about home loans, for example;
A HELOC is a Line Of Credit drawn on the Equity built as a home appreciates in value and is being paid down with monthly payments.
You may be eligible for a line of credit if your LTV is less than 80%.
To calculate your LTV, add how much you need for a line of credit to the amount of all debts secured by your home, and then divide that total by your home's estimated value.
Use this formula to get an idea of your LTV: (A + B)/C = LTV
A = The line of credit amount you need
B = The outstanding balance of your first and second mortgages, if any
C = Your home's estimated value
The Loan to Value (LTV) is the outstanding loan amount divided by the appraised property value or purchase price.
For a estimated value of your home, check out our home value connection and type in your address. Let us know if you have any trouble with this or have any other questions, we are always here to help.
Your first mortgage payment is usually 30 days after closing. The actual date of your first payment will be included in your closing documents.
To expedite the mortgage loan process, have the following items available:
- Information on all assets—401(k), cash deposits, Term Certificates, etc.
- W2s from the last two years
- Signed federal tax returns for the last two years (with schedules if you are self-employed or received rental income)
- List of current debts to include: credit cards, child support, auto loans, installment debt, etc.
- Two most recent pay stubs
- Most recent property tax bill (if available)
- Most recent mortgage loan statement
- Copy of your current homeowner's insurance policy

Responding to the Thirst for God!
Due to the increase of new vocations and inadequate facilities for welcoming visitors, there is an urgent need for expansion and renovation to our monastery. To this end, we have begun initial architectural plans and have formed a Centennial Committee of devoted and expert consultants to assist us in this exciting project.
Who are the Dominican Nuns of Summit, New Jersey?
Free for God Alone!
The Nuns of the Order of Preachers are to seek, ponder and call upon the Lord Jesus Christ in solitude so that the WORD proceeding from the mouth of God may not return to Him empty, but may accomplish those things for which It was sent. (Isaiah 55:10) Living in the heart of the Preaching Family, the nuns live in the WORD of God which the friars, sisters and laity preach. In the cloister the nuns devote themselves totally to God and perpetuate that singular gift which the blessed Dominic had of bearing sinners, the down-trodden and the afflicted in the inmost sanctuary of his compassion. They incarnate in their lives the cry of Saint Dominic:
"O Lord, what will become of sinners!"
Did You Know?
Our Dominican monastery has the special privilege of both perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament joined with the prayer of the rosary. We call this the Adoring Rosary. Through our Lady's eyes and heart we contemplate the Word of God who made Himself our Food for Eternal Life.
The monastery chapel is open every day from 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM. You are always welcome to come and spend time in His loving presence here at our Lady's monastery.
Contemplating the Word of God!
A Dominican Nun is consecrated to God and lives the mission of the Order of Preachers to preach the Gospel for the salvation of souls through a life of prayer, hearing the Word of God and contemplating the mysteries of Salvation through the privileged prayer of the Rosary in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament exposed in the monstrance.
Do you wish to follow Christ?
Interceding for the World!
We depend entirely on the providence of God and the generosity of our friends and benefactors for our daily life of prayer, study and work. Daily, we ask God to reward with eternal life "all those who do good to us for the sake of Your Holy Name" conscious that any donation we receive is a monetary oblation given to God for His honor and glory. Our prayers and good works are united to those who give, as if they were their own, reaping the blessings of Jesus and Mary.
By the Work of Our Hands!
Here at the monastery the nuns handcraft personal care items such as soap, lip balm, hand creme, and room sprays. They also make 100% beeswax candles such as tapers, votives, pillars and tealights. From the monastery wood-shop come hand turned pens. Also offered are the nuns' olive wood rosaries, books and other items. 100% of the proceeds support our growing community!

There are (6) veteran players under contract for 2012 totaling 68M :
Santana (24M), Bay (18M), Wright (15.2M), Dickey (4.7M), Carrasco (1.2M), Byrdak (estimated 1-2M)
The Mets have (6) free agent players:
Jose Reyes, Chris Capuano, Scott Hairston, Chris Young, Willie Harris, Miguel Batista
There are (5) arbitration eligible players:
Mike Pelfrey (Arb. 2), Ronny Paulino (Arb. 3), Bobby Parnell ( Arb. 1). Two players were super twos and have a fourth year of Arby Pagan and Buchholz
All other players on the roster are under control because they're in there first three years of their major league career, meaning they have options and will cost the team a salary of somewhere between 400k-600k.
I do recall reading somewhere that after this season Nick Evans was out of options which would also make him Arby 1 eligible but he's not listed that way at Cots contracts which is where I referenced this post. Ryota Igarashi, although he was on a two year major league contract he only has two years of service time, if they choose to keep him but there maybe an out clause at the end of the deal like Takahashi.
I'm not sure what the average settlement is for arbitration players but last off-season Angel Pagan coming off his first full season and solid numbers (BA .290) recieved almost a 60% increase ( 1.45-3.5M). So despite taking steps back if the Mets were to keep their Arby eligible players I think a 40% increase is a safe budget number. If the Mets kept all four and gave them a 40% increase it would cost them 12.8M ( below is there projected salary after increase).
Pelfrey (5.46M), Pagan (4.9M), Paulino (1.8M), Buchholz (840k), Parnell (660K)
This would commit the Mets to 11 players costing 80.8M. Now add in 14.5M which is 500k for the other 29 spots on the 40man roster and is rounded enough to include minor league contracts and signing bonuses that go against the MLB budget. This puts the Mets at 95.5M and Alderson said the budget would be around 100-120M.
I would non-tender Pelfrey and Pagan which would free up around 7-9M, giving them overall somewhere between 10-30M to spend (conservatively).
They could either go after several reasonably priced parts or go all in on Reyes and look for bargains to fill the rest of the holes.

Geneva, 30 November 2011 – The arresting digital displays of Times Square, Piccadilly Circus and Shibuya are just a foretaste of a brave new world of cityscapes illuminated by interactive, dynamic and highly targeted signage, according to a new ITU-T Technology Watch Report, Digital signage: the right information in all the right places.
Advances in display technologies, declining manufacturing costs and a retail boom in emerging economies are all contributing to the rapid spread of large-scale high-definition display networks. But the proprietary nature of current digital signage solutions is restricting the integration of applications across different networks and vendors. Interoperable global standards will be crucial to the future development of this emerging market, unlocking enormous value not just for display system developers, retailers and newscasters, but for governments and the community at large.
Tomorrow's dynamic signage can play a crucial civic role in areas like traffic management, public transport systems, safe crowd management at large events, control of people flows in public areas and private venues, and emergency response systems. But to do that effectively, standardized platforms will be crucial.
Full press release
Today's advanced technologies can transform social, industrial and business processes to effect the changes needed to achieve sustainability. But while the potential of ICTs to make a real difference is widely recognized by the technology community and government ICT ministries, it is still far from being understood and embraced by environmental lobby groups and policymakers.

The result of the consultation of Member States in TSB Circulars 203 and 231 is as follows:
Rec. No.
Accordingly these draft Recommendations will now be included in the list to be considered for approval at the SG15 closing plenary on 16 December 2011.
ITU, the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP)/ Secretariat of the Basel Convention and the United Nations University (UNU), in collaboration with the Solving the E-waste Problem (StEP) Initiative and the Center for Environment and Development for the Arab Region and Europe (CEDARE), have launched a joint survey on e-waste. This survey aims to collect detailed data on e-waste management, policies and standards; constructing a comprehensive overview of the current e-waste landscape and identifying future challenges in this realm. Such a mapping of the e-waste issue will establish a base upon which the exchange of e-waste information and best practices can occur, and will form a valuable tool in communicating the gravity of the problem and promoting collaborative work in the future development of policy and management of e-waste.The widespread use of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) has raised public awareness of its positive effects such as the reduction of the digital divide, but also of the negative environmental and health effects associated with the inefficient waste management of end-of-life electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE or e-waste). There have been alarming reports of e-waste mismanagement in many countries, particularly in less developed nations and countries with economies in transition. E-waste is a significant contributor to the ICT industry's impact on the environment, and urgent global action to address this issue is essential if the industry is to fulfill its commitment to a sustainable future. For further information, please see the survey's webpage: http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/climatechange/e-waste/index.html
ITU is organizing a Workshop on Standards and Intellectual Property Rights in New Delhi, India, 19-20 December 2011. Taking place at the HMR Institute of Technology and Management, the event will be hosted by the Global ICT Standardization Forum for India (GISFI), and will be followed by the seventh GISFI meeting at the same venue, 21-22 December 2011.
One of the key aims of standardization is to enable the efficient 'globalization' of ICT products and solutions. IPR issues must be taken into consideration when developing standards, a process demanding a balance of varying stakeholder interests; such as those of patent holders, standards implementers and standards' end-users. Additionally, SDOs frequently encounter copyright issues relating to the incorporation of software in standards.
Such patent and copyright issues are the subject of global debate, and the workshop is being convened to provide a forum for discussions relating to the inclusion of patented technology and software in standards. International experts from both the public and private sector will provide an overview of these issues and share their insights on the present nature of the issue and how it is likely to progress in the future.
Participation in the workshop is open to ITU Member States, Sector Members, Associates, Academia and to any individual from a country part of ITU's membership. Fellowships are available upon request, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
Further to the agreement between the Director, ITU Telecommunication Standardization Bureau and the Chairman of the Internet Engineering Taskforce (IETF) detailed in the ITU-T Newslog of November 14, the agreed statement has been included in a proposed compromise from the Japanese administration. The relevant documents are publicly available at: http://www.itu.int/oth/T0A0B00000C.
ITU's Kaleidoscope academic conference The fully networked human? − Innovations for future networks and services (Cape Town, South Africa, 12-14 December 2011) will be made available as a live audio and video webcast in order that remote participants can see and hear presentations from wherever they are in the world.Technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society, Kaleidoscope 2011 will bring together academia, research organizations and experts working on the standardization of telecommunications and ICTs. (See here for programme, bios and presentation slides).Accepted papers will be made available through the IEEE Xplore repository of academic papers. A prize fund totaling $10,000 will be awarded to the three best papers. Young Author Recognition certificates will also be issued.In addition to an exhibition by local universities, keynote speakers and invited papers, ITU Kaleidoscope 2011 will host Jules Verne's Corner, a special space for science fiction writers and dreamers, a Tutorial on : Future Internet Impacts on the Evolution of NGN Infrastructures and Services and a Special Session on ITU & Academia.

ITU is organizing a two-day Workshop on Digital Signage in Tokyo, Japan, 13-14 December 2011.Digital signage, also the topic of an upcoming ITU-T Technology Watch Report, is defined as a, "network of digital displays that are centrally managed and addressable for targeted information, entertainment, merchandising and advertisement." User interaction can trigger content adaption, and the level of this interaction will develop alongside location information and environmental sensor technology.The workshop will provide a comprehensive introduction to digital signage technology, how it is currently being applied, and how it is likely to expand in the future. Particular emphasis will be placed on how standards are to play a key role in ensuring this technology meets its potential.
The proprietary nature of current digital signage solutions restricts the integration of applications across different networks or vendors.
Interoperable standards are thus crucial to the development of this industry. The great value it will unlock for its providers and users can only be achieved through the expansion of large-scale digital signage networks, and standardization is the means to ensure this expansion occurs as cost-effectively and as rapidly as possible. For detailed event information, please consult http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/worksem/iptv/201112/index.html. Remote participation is available and encouraged; enter the room by following this link, http://itu.adobeconnect.com/itudigitalsignage/.

Investing around Obama's Speech on Healthcare
Call me cynical, but the math for healthcare reform just doesn't add up. The plan covers more people, reduces the current cost for existing policy holders, and will not increase the deficit - sounds rather magical.
Yesterday, however, the market didn't seem too concerned about the impending speech; let's see what happens in the next few days. If my analysis is correct, the market is anticipating a "Healthcare Lite" bill to pass.
If there was anything that struck me about last night's speech, it was President Obama's claim that he will be the last President to take up the healthcare issue. With that "legacy" theme, I expect something will get passed, but a lesser version of what is being bandied about now. A lesser version is the best possible scenario for the markets. Let's say the plan costs half the expected $900 billion current price tag and covers less than half the 46 million Americans who are currently uninsured. What is "market positive" is that the healthcare sector holdings are currently a heavy "underweight," expecting a much grander bill. From managed care to pharma to biotech, a "lesser version" will add another leg of foundation to the recovering market.

Lacrosse news straight to your inbox.
Tuesday August 6th, 2013 1:09am
The Stringers Spotlight features another stick strung up by the hands of one of the lacrosse world's rising professional stars — 2012 NLL Champion's Cup MVP Cody Jamieson, one of Team 22's sponsored athletes.
Here, Jamieson was strung up an Under Armour Revenant in a color scheme to match his NJCAA alma mater, Onondaga Community College, the powerhouse lacrosse program located in Syracuse, coached by Chuck Wilbur and the winners of the last four junior college national championships.
Jamieson got his start as a Lazer, going on to star at Syracuse, scoring the famous overtime goal to life the Orange over Cornell in the 2009 NCAA title. Jammer has gone on to already make a name for himself in the highest levels of box lacrosse, now as an elite lefty forward in the Rochester Knighthawks lineup and a playing in the summer time for the Six Nations Chiefs of Major Series Lacrosse (with whom he became the first player to ever win the circuit's scoring title, Rookie of the Year and MVP honors in the same season).
Jamieson is pretty handy with mesh pockets, so we had him weave up this Under Armour Revenant with a piece of traditional rubber mesh from Jimalax, along with some sidewalls and shooters to bring us back to Jammer's days at OCC, when he was arguably the most dominant JUCO player in modern times.
"I like the pocket to be all around full," says Jamieson. "So that when I am carrying the ball with two hands, the ball sits in the middle of the stick for a quick release, so I can pass and shoot at any second. But being an attackman (in field lacrosse), I like to carry the ball in one hand, so I need it to sit at the bottom when I carry my stick vertical."
"I lock in every hole on the sidewalls to stop the mesh from sliding back and forth but keeping the shape of the pocket. I like the top string as tight as I can make it, so this style lets me achieve that. ... Overall my hook or whip would be a 5 (on a 1 to 10 scale). It's enough to give me some extra power behind my shot, but not enough where I can't make a pass from any angle my stick might be at. I keep my stick the same no matter if I am playing field or box lacrosse. I have been doing this string job since I was 13, when my good friend Sid Smith stopped stringing my sticks for me and made me learn how to do it on my own. Like anyone else, I throw some tweaks in here and there depending on how I am playing at that particular time."
