CANADA FX DEBT-C$ strengthens as oil rebounds, stocks climb
* Canadian dollar at C$1.3165, or 75.96 U.S. cents * Bond prices mixed across the yield curve TORONTO, Sept 19 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar on Monday bounced back from a seven-week low in the previous session as oil prices rebounded and global equity markets climbed. Gains for the loonie follow a 1.3 percent decline last week when lower crude prices weighed on commodity-linked currencies, also weakened by concern that leading central banks may not expand monetary stimulus. On Monday, oil prices rose from multi-week lows after Venezuela said OPEC and non-OPEC producers were close to a deal to stabilize the crude market and as clashes in Libya disrupted attempts to boost crude exports. U.S. crude prices were up 0.74 percent to $43.35 a barrel. The U.S. dollar fell from a two-week high as investors braced for central bank policy decisions in Japan and the United States on Wednesday. At 9:20 a.m. EDT (1320 GMT), the Canadian dollar was trading at C$1.3165 to the greenback, or 75.96 U.S. cents, stronger than Friday's close of C$1.3214, or 75.68 U.S. cents. The currency's strongest level of the session was C$1.3135, while its weakest was C$1.3230. Mexico's peso weakened slightly on Monday from a record low close on Friday, within sight of the 20 pesos per U.S. dollar psychological level. The peso's plunge is seen putting further pressure on Canadian exporters to the U.S. market, because it could make Mexico's goods more competitively priced in U.S. dollars than those from Canada. Speculators pared bullish bets on the Canadian dollar for the second straight week, Commodity Futures Trading Commission data showed on Friday. Canada's autoworkers' union Unifor and General Motors Co made little progress resolving the key issue of new investment in contract talks late on Sunday, the union's president said, just over 24 hours ahead of a strike deadline." Canadian government bond prices were mixed across the yield curve, with the two-year bond flat to yield 0.581 percent and the benchmark 10-year falling 7 Canadian cents to yield 1.197 percent. Bank of Canada Governor Stephen Poloz will give a speech in Quebec City on Tuesday on the topic of "Living With Lower for Longer", followed by a press conference. Investors will be looking to see whether Poloz emphasizes the downbeat tone of the recent policy statement. Canadian inflation and retail sales data are due on Friday. The annual inflation rate is forecast to have edged up to 1.4 percent in August, while investors will be looking for signs that the federal government's new child benefit checks gave a boost to retail sales.

Idk what GM did differently between the flat tappet, the pre vortec rollers and then the vortec rollers.
Thanks for the input guys. Sorry took me so long to get back to you Ive been swamped with school and work.
The Vortec is pretty much the same as the other OEM rollers, it adjusts the gears and chain for the plastic timing cover that comes on those engines. It should fit the older roller blocks with the sheetmetal timing cover but the thrust depth should be the same as the camshafts and thrust plates interchange at least insofar as the two different bolt hole distances used between the very early roller blocks and the later ones are concerned.
Still there is no harm in trying different gears to see if a better clearance can be had.
Generally the configurational difference between non roller, roller, roller optioned but flat tappet equipped are:
- Flat tappet blocks have no provisions for a roller i.e. no spider mounting bosses (3), no face machine or drillings for the thrust plate, low height lifter bores, flat face on cam. Thrust is taken between the backside of the cam driven gear and the block face. The cam will always have a fuel pump lobe.
- Roller blocks have three bosses on top of the main oil galley to mount the spider, the block face is machined to accept two mounting bolts for the thrust plate, there is a thrust plate, the lifter bores are raised to provide support for the longer lifter, the lifters are tied in pairs by a gadget called the dog bone, the cam has a stepped face that protudes about 1/4 inch forward of the flat tappet cam so it can pass through the thrust plate, the cam gear is modified in the hub so it can accomodate the thickness of the thrust plate which it now reacts against instead of the block face. The cam may or not have fuel a pump lobe. The push rods are shorter to accomodate the taller roller liftesr.
- Roller provisioned blocks with a flat tappet cam have all the unique provisions for a roller cam but use a standard non roller cam with the flat and short face. This uses standard length flat tappets with the older standard length (longer) push rod. It uses the older timing gear that reacts thrust aganist the block instead of a thrust plate. The cam may or not have a fuel pump lobe.
- The Vortec block used in the L31 Vortec is the same as the preceeding roller blocks whether those blocks had a roller or flat tappet cam. The Vortec block (880) actaully was used in late 1995 production and some 1996 Vans with a flat tappet or roller tappet cam, sheetmetal timing cover, Swirl Port or L31 Vortec heads, with Throttle Body Injection (TBI). Where the L31 in pickups starting with 96 production all used Central Multi-point Fuel Injection, L31 Vortec heads (two versions), a plastic timing cover which drives a unique timing gear and chain set for clearance (narrower gear teeth and chain) because the plastic timing cover accomodates often but not always a built in crank seal and always a crank position sensor.
As you can see where the roller provisioned or equipped and the L31 blocks are concerned there is a lot of interchange between them and they can use the flat tappet cam, lifters and timing set from older Gen I engines when all this stuff comes in a set of equipment. The L31 Vortec plastic timing cover does require a unique narrowed timing set as it uses up space for the crank position sensor. If you're using an L31 Vortec with carb or TBI it's simple back date the engine to use the sheetmetal or even a cast aluminum timing cover from the earlier engines.

Review of Dr. Kuperman
Dr. Kuperman has been my regular Physician for years. He is extremely conservative and analyzes everything very carefully before giving his final opinion on the correct course of action. I would highly recommend him.

It has been several years since I've seen Dr. Kuperman but my opinion of him and his service is very high. He was very thorough and asked very good questions to help him with his diagnosis. I am a firm believer in homeopathic and what I was sent home with helped immensely. His homeopathic expertise coupled with his medical abilities, make him the ideal doctor in my opinion. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

The first time i met my doctor, it was sooo right on the way another doctor, who referred me to him, described him....very professional, non-intimidating, and has a caring attitude. Above all, he's very knowledgable and his overall holistic treatment approach has been a great plus to my healing. He and his wife, Dr Gail Gluckman, are by far , the best doctors i've met!!

Suggestion on registrar selection
If you are responding to an outside (e.g., customer) requirement to register an EMS, check what their specific requirements are, since not all registrars are accredited, either by the accreditor for the USA, ANAB , or by another country's accreditation bodies.
There are no requirements within the USA, at least from the government, for using an accredited registrar. However, you may want to consider the value of a registration by a registrar with a solid reputation and formal credentials, versus a firm without such credentials. If you are reacting to a business requirement, such as a customer demand, it is usually a good practice to check on what that customer specifically wants.
The audit team the registrar sends should be staffed by professionals who have experience in your industry, or as close to it as possible.
You can negotiate. Factors to consider for negotiation include: cost and make-up of the audit team, and the amount of time the audit team will spend at your site. References can be important.
Also, consider contracting for a pre-registration audit, as it will help you see if you are as ready for the formal registration audit as you may think you are.

Florida Georgia Line Compares Themselves To Alabama
FGL says they're a lot like Alabama
Brian Kelley, of Florida Georgia Line, believes that country fans' reactions to FGL music is not much different than the reaction Alabama received when their band started getting noticed in the 70's. When talking with "CMT" about Alabama, Kelley pointed out, "We relate to them and they said they relate to us. People said they weren't country when they first came out, when they were playing bars and playing their instruments and rocking it out."
Teddy Gentry, the bass player for Alabama, told 'The Boot' in 2012, "When we came up, we were considered different...wearing t-shirts and tennis shoes and having long hair and playing loud. So you just have to go with what you've got."
Alabama has 43 #1 records and over 73 million album sales. Florida Georgia Line still has a way to go before they achieve that level of sales. For now, Florida Georgia Line is finishing up a new album and staying busy on their current tour. As for the legendary supergroup - we're talking about Alabama - they're set to release "Angels Among Us: Hymns & Gospel Favorites" on September 8th at all Cracker Barrel store locations.

The Jan. 21 article concerning correctional employees caught my attention. As a former warden of two western Kentucky prisons, my career has seen the loss of two fellow employees at the hands of inmates, two hostage situations, a sexual assault, numerous physical assaults and daily verbal assaults of correctional employees.
As citizens, we many times follow the news of horrific crimes committed against others by criminals. But after the trial and conviction our thoughts often end there. This same criminal's life continues behind bars and it is the correctional officer/employee who interacts with this individual eight hours a day.
Correctional employees know the importance of their jobs, which is providing safety to our communities. It takes a special person willing to sacrifice personal safety for their fellow citizens. In the back of their mind they know too well the dangers of their job, while also realizing their goodbye to family members before leaving for duty could be their final goodbye.
They deserve more. They deserve more pay than average, but raising their pay to at least the national average is a start. Funding the statute regarding longevity pay in an effort to prevent the constant turnover is another.
I encourage you to be mindful of the men and women who contribute to our safety. Tell them thanks by writing or calling your legislators and asking for their support in raising their pay and funding longevity pay, both of which are so very much deserved.
Thank you to The Paducah Sun in reminding myself and others of the role correctional employees play in our safety. I also hope The Paducah Sun continues to be a voice for correctional employees.

It seems Bush has a thing for "Karls" as policy advisors. On the heels of Karl Rove's departure from his policy-advising position at the White House, the president has chosen Karl Zinsmeister, editor in chief of the magazine published by the conservative think tank American Enterprise Institute. He has had some eyebrow-raising things to say on the subject of race over the years. (Biographical info on Zinsmeister here.)
The Horse's Mouth:
KARL ZINSMEISTER'S EYEBROW-RAISING QUOTES. Yesterday President Bush named Karl Zinsmeister his new chief domestic policy adviser, hailing him as an "innovative thinker" that would bring "energy and a fresh perspective." Turns out Zinsmeister may be a bit more innovative than Bush bargained for. Over at the New York Sun, reporter Josh Gerstein did a bit of digging and came up with some interesting gems from Zinsmeister's past writings that, as Gerstein wryly put it, "could cause embarrassment to the White House." Here they are:
From The American Enterprise, 1996: "But the point of the conservative concern over black underclass life is that the pathologies run so much deeper there…we desperately need to find out what it is in contemporary black culture that makes for these exceptional breakdowns—and then work like crazy to counteract those factors."
Also from the same article but not quoted by Gerstein: "The brutal reality is that whether in the selection of juries or the choice of neighborhoods to live (or get lost) in, colorblindness has become a real risk today…The penalty for the person who, ignoring race, turns down the wrong street today can literally be death. (Emphasis added.)
From aei.org
Karl Zinsmeister, who worked in government for only a brief period, in the early 1980s, has become Bush's chief domestic policy adviser.

Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC): Update on outbreak in the EU (18 July 2011, 11:00)
In the EU/EEA, 11 non-HUS STEC cases and no HUS STEC cases were reported to have fallen ill within the last 10 days (6 July – 15 July) in Germany. This includes one case confirmed with STEC O104:H4, and 10 probable cases, not yet confirmed. The last known date of illness onset in a patient with confirmed STEC O104 was 7 July 2011. The last reported date of illness onset among all cases was 11 July 2011.
As of today, the cumulative number of confirmed STEC cases in the EU/EEA is 891. This includes 246 HUS STEC cases and 645 non-HUS STEC cases. Additionally, there are 519 probable HUS STEC and 2 497 probable non-HUS STEC cases, with no confirmation of STEC O104:H4 at present time. In total, in the EU, 41 persons have died of confirmed or probable STEC infection. Of these, 26 were HUS STEC cases and 15 were non-HUS STEC cases. The table below shows the distribution of cumulative probable and confirmed STEC cases per country.Since the last update, Germany has, on balance, excluded one non-HUS STEC case. A link to the daily update from the Robert Koch Institute is provided below. Other Member States have not reported any HUS or non-HUS cases since the last update.

Can you give dogs OTC glucosamine?
Asked by

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
I'm not certain about OTC, but I know that some dog foods and dog food suppliments have glucosamine in it. A natural source of glucosamine is chicken feet, which I gave to my GSD daily to help with her arthritis up until I started giving her a suppliment that included glucosamine as well as helping with weight management. I would, however, still be feeding chicken feet if I didn't need the weight management help.
Cookies 'n' Creme (1998-2011) answered on 4/23/09. Helpful? / 0
Yes, go ahead. Try poking around the Arthritis Foundation's website. They have a page on dogs and arthritis.
Aster answered on 4/23/09. Helpful? / 0
Yes, absolutely.
If you are using human-grade Glucosamine, the combination pills containing Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and MSM are the best choice.
In addition, a good quality Ester-C supplement also supports joint health. Start that off at a small dosage and work your way up, as it's known to cause upset tummies.
If you want to go to a product made specifically for dogs, you cannot go wrong with Synovi G3. It's a great supplement and makes a world of difference in a dog's joint health. My 6 year old German Shepherd, who has arthritis in her right hind leg is on that and Ester-C and doing well enough to still keep up on pack hikes and other strenuous activities.
Abby answered on 4/23/09. Helpful? / 0
You can but they do make glucosamine for dogs too that comes in chewable tablets or liquid. Most human glucosamine comes in pill form or flavored liquids. I would consult a vet before giving a dog OTC human glucosamine just to be on the safe side that you're giving the right amount.

Well as some know I finally got my lgt gear upgrade squared away. Finally realized I had the wrong 3-4 shift sleeve even though the part number was the correct one I needed somehow the outdated one got in my box. Thanks Subaru. lol.
Moving on the trans I am gauging interest in is from a 2003 wrx. Unfortunately the only thing I know about is is the kid I purchased it from blew 1st gear and couldn't get the center diff on. I work at a dealer so I bought it cheap and split the case and checked it out. He had 1st replaced and I slapped it back together and put it in my car. 1st gear had a little whine to it but nothing major. I was just using this trans to get me by till I could get some stronger gears. Unfortunately third gear went on me causing me to upgrade sooner then expected.
In my journey of the upgraded gears I had to throw in this back up trans till I figured out why it would pop out of third. So while this was back in it also did the same thing which at the time I though had the upgraded sleeve with the upgraded 3-4 I just put in (only because we compared it to the "old sleeve" we thought was a new style) but obviously didn't. So now it's just sitting at work all together. I've been contemplating keeping it for a spare just in case but I could use the money to invest back into the car and I don't beat my trans so my new one will be good for a long while.
Obviously I will get a new style 3-4 sleeve for it and resemble it. As I said 1st gear still whines even though I swapped the syncro out with one I knew didn't whine so I'm guessing it's the gear this kid put in. When it was back in my car everything drove great (minus my third gear problem) and was smooth. I haven't split it back open yet because I'd like to see some interest before I do everything.
I wanted to extend this offer to some people. Obviously I'm going to have to press apart the driven shaft to fix the sleeve problem. But if someone wants to while it's apart I can replace any or all syncro's and bearings. Obviously this will come at an extra cost in parts for you but since it will be out I won't really charge to much labor on it. Pretty much I'd only charge a little more if I have to take apart the main shaft since I don't have to.
Sorry for the long ramble but I wanted to give as much info as possible since I know what it's like trying to buy a used trans and how uneasy it is. Like I said I am a subaru tech and not some random guy just trying to throw together a transmission. Any questions feel free to ask.

Looking for an electric cut-off tool that's better than a Dremel.
Hi guys,
I am looking for an electric cut-off tool that's better than a Dremel. I am losing my patience cutting metal with the Dremel tiny cut-off wheels that breaks off in no time :)
Does anyone have recommendations for a good electric cut off tool?
I use a 4 1/2" electric grinder with a cut-off wheel for most stuff
works better than my air cut-offs
As Matt advised. Harbor freight has a angle grinder they sell for around 15 bucks (chicago electric) thats hard to beat. Use Norton cut off blade #15280 4"x .040x 5/8 - available at Home Depot 2 bucks each.
and you can buy thin cuttin discs for em too.very good tool for cuttin.
Thanks guys :thumbup:

Dremels are just too delicate for most car work that I do. Air cutoffs vary on performance also. Buy a eBay snapon it's well worth the extra money. I agree on the milwaukee or makita 1/4 die grinder are the best.
It depends on what you are doing with it. If you need to use small wheels to get into tight places, use a die grinder with a mandrel & cutoff wheel. As far as normal cutting Metabo is the best IMHO. They are actually designed for a cutoff wheel. If you put a cutoff wheel on a normal 4-1/2" grinder and during the cut, the blade gets bound up, it can kick back violently. Metabo's use a special designed nut that has like a rubber O-Ring that when tightened actually holds the cutoff blade tight but allows the blade to slip if it gets bound up. Alot safer. As with any of these, always wear good gloves, long sleeves and a face shield.
Damn- another tool that I'll probably think about and then buy. I've got this habit of wanting the proper tools for the job.
I have air and electric cut off tools, all using the 4-1/2" wheels. I am careful of the grinding wheels - either US or European make, never from a Far East country. Additionally, make sure of their rated speed - many of the air tools will really wind up - over 10,000rpm. As far as where I buy them - there are a couple of swap meets I'll always attend and often it's 10 for $5-$7 or thereabouts. My Dremel is seldom used. Great tool, but not for 'big jobs', but more for small hobby stuff like models or maybe polishing a small part.
HF has a new 3" cutoff tool that looks to use the same motor as the 4.5" grinders. $30ish usually, but I prefer the 4.5" grinders with a cutoff wheel.
As dave said, use good wheels. I blew up ONE HF chop saw wheel. I now use Norton or DeWalt wheels on everything, and they wear without getting damaged, until there just too small to work.. I used to use the HF cutting wheels for 4" grinders until I went up to a 4.5" grinder and wheels with the 5/8" shaft are more common
cut off tools
Been doing metal work about 35 years 4.5 are the best tool for the job like the man says ,but be careful had a frend that had a cut weel/wafer blade blow apart cost him 30 stiches in his arm its best to wear full sleaves and thick welding gloves .I put on an old weld ing hood with clear linse to be safe / check the RPM raiting on the blades and tool,
For a Dremel sized electric tool, I use a Ryobi HT20VS or a Dremel MultiPro and neither have given me any problems (I don't know if either are still being made). For bigger work I use either pnumatic tools (various die/angle grinders, saws, etc.) or for an electric tool I use a Rotozip w/various blades or bits as required, or a Craftsman 1/4" electric die grinder- but it's a handful if there's a lot of work to do, plus it gets hot in your hand.
If you've not tried the fiber reinforced Dremel cutoff wheels (456 and 426 or clones), you should. They're far more durable than the thin emery-type discs that shatter at a glance. Clones are really just as good, at least the ones I've used, and cost far less than Dremel brand discs.
at this time, I am using the dewalt 4.5" cut off discs I bought them at lowes in a "bulk contractors pack" and they were pretty cheap, and hold up very well
I also bought a couple of 6" which work well for cutting multiple layers( i.e. when I cut off my rockers)
last time I was there they had some taskforce 4.5" grinders on clearance for $20 , and I think i'm going to go back and get one
that way I can just leave that one with the cut-off wheel on it :thumbup:
and use/save my other one for grinding and wire wheels
is anybody using one of these taskforce brand tools?
Anyone used rotozip RFS1000?
Looks like a proper cutting only tool.

Gary Hooper hopes moving to Norwich from Celtic will enhance his bid for a place in England's World Cup squad next summer.
The 25-year-old signed from Celtic last week and met up with the Norwich squad yesterday following their return from the United States.
The Canaries' long-standing interest and the prospect of playing in the Barclays Premier League persuaded Hooper to swap Champions League nights at Parkhead and the goldfish bowl that is football in Glasgow for Norfolk.
His aims are simple after moving to Carrow Road on a three-year deal, with Norwich having the option of a further year.
"(To) score goals," Hooper said.
"That's what I get paid for, that's what the gaffer got me in for and that's the challenge: to play and score goals.
"I wanted to play in the Premiership and to try to get an England call-up. I think there's a good chance of that."
Hooper felt that at Celtic the opportunity for England recognition was limited, even though he came close to a call-up under Roy Hodgson earlier this year, only to be ruled out through injury.
"You don't really get a look in up there," Hooper said.
"Down here you've got more chance. The main thing is playing, getting on the pitch first, and doing what I do.
"To play for your country is anyone's dream, but my first dream is to play in the Premiership."
Manager Chris Hughton supports Hooper's ambition.
"He's got to play well enough for Norwich City Football Club and score goals and prove that he can do it in this very, very difficult league," Hughton said.
"That's the reason why he's here and that's the wonderful challenge that he has."
Hooper scored 31 goals for Scottish champions Celtic last season and is the Canaries' seventh summer signing.
He was Celtic's leading goalscorer for the last three seasons, having joined from Scunthorpe in 2010 for £2.4million.
Hooper could have joined sooner, but opted to stay in Glasgow in January to be part of Celtic's Champions League campaign.
Hooper added: "I had the Champions League and Celtic wanted to keep me. It was a tough decision, but I'm here now and I'm happy."
QPR also had a bid accepted for Hooper and he carefully considered a move to Loftus Road.
"I was close, but I wanted to come here and play in the Premiership," Hooper added.
"I've never played in the Premiership. I've played in every league, scored in every league and the next challenge is the Premiership."
Hooper is the second striker recruited this summer by Hughton, following the record signing of Dutch international Ricky van Wolfswinkel for £8.5million from Sporting Lisbon.
After losing team talisman Grant Holt, supporters will be looking to Van Wolfswinkel and Hooper, who could make his debut against Brighton tomorrow, to fill the void.
Hughton will demand that the duo put the team first.
He said: "It's not just about scoring goals. This is a very tough division.
"What they first have to be is a good team player. "What he has got on his CV is that he's used to scoring goals.
"It's for us to make sure we have the right combinations to give him the opportunity to score goals."
Norwich have also signed Dutch midfielder Leroy Fer from FC Twente, Birmingham wing Nathan Redmond, left-backs Javier Garrido and Martin Olsson plus the goalkeeper Carlo Nash.
Hughton is still looking, but is happy to have made signings early in the transfer window.
"We're delighted at this stage to have brought in what we have," Hughton said.

Ten year-old Sarah Murnaghan and 11 year old Javier Accosta have cystic fibrosis. The genetic disorder severely damages the lungs and digestive system. They're waiting for lung transplants along with 1,700 other people in the U.S., including about 30 children under the age of 11. Matches are made based on blood type and size.
"In the case of a child, by getting lungs from an adult, you can take either part of the lung or cut down part of the lung and make it fit into that child," said Dr. Joshua Sonett with New York-Presbyterian/Columbia Medical Center.
The donor system also takes into account how well a patient will do with a new lung. Lung transplants are an especially high risk operation. Infection is a big problem because the lungs are exposed to viruses and bacteria. About half of the patients who have lung transplants are living five years after their procedure.
A big reason for the long waiting list in the U.S. is the number of lungs available. ast year there were just 20 lung donors under the age of 12 and about 1,700 donors for adults.
"There is an organ donor shortage and if we can get enough organs then we would just be deciding who we are going to transplant and when and not discussing who gets which lung," Dr. Sonett said.
Each day about 18 people die waiting for transplants. Sarah and Javier's family are hopeful the odds are now more in their favor.

1) Unique and Innovative Program
The University of New Haven has one of the very few undergraduate Industrial and Systems Engineering programs in the United States. This program has been designed and developed with input from top companies from the aerospace, defense, and manufacturing industries. The B.S. degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering is accredited by the Institute of Industrial Engineers and by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (EAC/ABET). Industrial and Systems Engineering students are educated and trained to guide development initiatives and make difficult trade-off decisions during the complex system design and development process. Students are able to build and manage complex decision models that represent the development of integrated multidisciplinary engineering systems to optimize the design of the system for its entire lifecycle. Faculty in the Industrial and Systems Engineering program are experts at designing systems for lifecycle considerations, including manufacturing, assembly, supply chain, logistics, transportation, reliability, maintainability and environmental considerations.
2) Great Industrial and Systems Engineering Professions and Job Outlook
CNN Money Magazine reported in 2009 that Systems Engineering is "the Number #1 Job in America." CNN Money reported the 10-year job growth at an astounding 45% and that online job listings grew 22% from April 2009 to August 2009. Most system engineering companies agree that the demand for well-trained system engineers outpaces the current labor pool which makes the career one of the most promising of this decade. System engineers are in demand in the defense, aerospace, transportation, pharmaceutical, medical device, and software industries, and many other industries that develop complex engineered products. Even at the early stages of their careers, there is a significant current demand for system engineers at government agencies and laboratories, including the United States Defense Contract Management Agency.
3) Exposure to Lifecycle Design Concepts
Undergraduate Industrial and Systems Engineering students gain knowledge and expertise in system lifecycle development and analysis, including the Department of Defense Model (DoD 5000), the International Model (ISO/IEC 15288), and the National Society of Professional Engineers Model. Students learn to apply these system development models during in-class projects, design process courses, and their Senior Capstone Design Project. Top engineered systems companies are utilizing this unique system engineering methodology to reduce the risk of failure of complex development projects.
4) State-of-the-Art Multiuse Laboratory
The new Industrial and Systems Engineering Laboratory built in August 2008 is a state-of-the-art multiuse laboratory designed to enable innovative teaching practices and collaborative learning by incorporating flexibility in room use. Advanced system engineering software in the laboratory includes IBM DOORS, SysML, Matlab, Simulink, Labview, Arena, Quest, FICO Xpress Solver, Lindo, Lingo, Solidworks, Autocad, Minitab, SPSS, Boothroyd-Dewhurst Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA) software, and Boothroyd-Dewhurst Design for Environment (DFE) software. The laboratory also hosts rapid prototyping technology that includes a Dimension 3D printer that enables students to create part and product concepts in ABS plastic. Additionally, students can perform reverse engineering with advanced photogrammetry and 3D scanning and vision equipment.
5) Opportunities For Undergraduate Research
Faculty members in the Industrial and Systems Engineering program involve undergraduate students in research through course projects and independent research projects. Undergraduate students perform research with faculty in sustainable system design, rapid prototyping technologies, lifecycle assessment, and system engineering methodologies and tools.
6) Growing Program with Individualized Attention and Required Internship Component
Industrial and Systems Engineering is a growing program that provides one-on-one, individualized attention for engineering students with exceptional advising. Faculty members work with students to involve them in laboratory exercises and research, to provide professional development opportunities and resume-building advice, and to connect students with a variety of engineering internship opportunities. The internship is a required component of the Industrial and Systems Engineering program that allows students to gain invaluable professional experience and is conducted in accordance with the National Society of Experiential Education (NSEE) guidelines.

Christian Siriano's Fall 2013 Echoes Russian Royalty
Forget the fat lady. For Christian Siriano's Opera-inspired Fall 2013 NYFW presentation (February 9), the show wasn't over until the last model walked the runway, and she … was … stunning.
We were in on the action for the 27-year-old designer's runway show, which was inspired by the "golden age of the Russian Opera."
"The lavish interiors of Saint Petersburg's Mariinsky Theater inspired [me] to begin work on this glamorous and opulent collection," says Siriano. "[One filled with] sophisticated shapes, gilded and embossed fabrications, and deep jewel-toned colors."
We fell in love with the collections regal offerings, which included finely tailored blazers, sophisticated cocktail dresses, and red-carpet-ready gowns.
We caught up with MAC makeup artist, Polly Osmond, backstage to see how she captured the show's royal inspiration. "[Christian] wanted the girls to look very strong. So, we did a very dark eye using MAC eyeliner in Smolder and Black Dragon."
Contouring played a huge role in the girls' final look, and Osmond says to achieve the perfect chiseled look, try "sucking in your cheeks" and tracing a product that's "not too grey [or] orange" along your cheek bones. She also stressed, "Always blend [the product] into the foundation so it doesn't look too line-y."
The fishtail, a very popular 'do of the moment, paraded down the catwalk thanks to the styling talents of Antoinette Beenders, Aveda's Global Creative Director. She folded along both sides of the models' faces, creating two separate braids. Each one was then looped to the opposite side of their heads and pinned into place. Beenders described the look as, "Very feminine and romantic, yet quite opulent."
Stay tuned for pictures from Siriano's fall 2013 showing!

Ally is now approximately 6 months old. She weighs 48 lbs. Here's a recent picture. Which colors do yall consider her to be? Is her weight considered average? Thanks in advance! :)
Sent from Petguide.com Free App
Very cute, she looks like she'll end up a B&T saddleback :) She'll still young and has lots of growing still going on so I wouldn't worry about weight just yet, as long as she's healthy and you can feel but not see the ribs with a nice tuck she'll be perfect
I feel her weight is normal for a female. Athena is 10 months and 56lbs. They will continue to grow and fill out till they reach maturity at 1 1/2 - 2 years. She is beautiful by the way!
I agree, her weight seems average for a six month old female.
I believe she is going to be black and tan saddle. The dark pigment on her legs is most likely going to fade some.
She's very pretty by the way!
Thanks so much!:D

This Masters became one like no other today when Augusta National chairman Billy Payne went off on Tiger Woods' morals. To have Augusta's hierarchy address the behavior of a specific golfer is unprecedented. But Payne also invoked the "people who live in glass houses" rule when he didn't flinch an inch when it came time to defend his club's boys-only rule.
On the subject of Tiger, Payne said:
"It's not simply the degree of his conduct that is so egregious here. It is the fact he disappointed all of us and more imporantly our kids and grandkids.
"Our hero did not live up to the expectations as a role model that we sought for our children."
Added Payne:
"We at Augusta hope and pray that our great champion will begin his new life here tomorrow in a positive, hopeful and constructive manner, but this time, with a significant difference from the past. This year, it will not be just for him, but for all of us who believe in second chances."
After that sermon ended, Payne was asked why Augusta continues to not to allow women members, and his explanation was:
"The tens of millions of dollars we have contrbuted to the growth of the game through the years, I think, has certainly helped with both men's and women's golf . . . It's a membership kind of issue. As you know, those are subject to the private deliberations of the members."

Upper West Side
Upper West, from Central Park West to the Hudson River, 59th Street (excluding Columbus Circle) to 110th Street.
Every ten blocks of the Upper West Side seem to have its own character. The 70s and 80s have their share of "Classic Six" prewar apartments (that's two bedrooms, a living room, dining room, and kitchen plus a room for the maid or domestic staff, sometimes used as a home office) as opposed to a "Classic Seven," which has all these rooms in addition to another bedroom. Along Riverside Drive on the Upper West Side, some grand-scale apartment buildings with magnificent river views perfectly match the street's name. Meanwhile, the southern bit of the Upper West Side embraces the Time Warner Center, which has some of the most spectacular luxury condos in the city, along with high-end shops like Coach and Hugo Boss, once-in-a-lifetime eateries like Per Se, and a giant subterranean Whole Foods that seems to have the capability to hold every resident of the Upper West Side at once.

"I am delighted for the opportunity to work with the UAB golf programs," Murray said. "I often crossed paths with [UAB head coach] Alan Kaufman while I played at Toledo because he always had talented athletes from Ireland. I'm excited for the season to get underway and to help drive these programs forward."
Murray played golf at Toledo from 1998-2002. He earned first team All-Mac honors as a senior and helped the Rockets to the 2002 MAC Championship. The 32-year-old also served as an assistant pro at the Toledo Country Club after his tenure with the Rockets.
"Alan is going to be a great asset for our golf program," Kaufman said. "He has a great knowledge of the game and being a former collegiate and professional player, he will provide our student-athletes with terrific insight. We are very happy he is part of the UAB golf family."

Cifola's Lion launches Tiziano Terzani biopic
EXCLUSIVE: Former Rai Sesto Cifola [pictured] touches down in Cannes with new company Lion Pictures International.
Italian industry veteran Sesto Cifola's new sales company Lion Pictures International is developing an English-language biopic on late, legendary foreign correspondent Tiziano Terzani.
Lion has acquired rights to the famous Der Speigel Asia correspondent's bestseller A Fortune-Teller Told Me recounting his travels by land and sea across the region after a fortune-teller warned him he would die if he took an airplane.
Former Rai Trade executive Cifola launched Lion in March. It is a joint venture with Giuseppe Gargiulo, founding owner of home entertainment Cine Video Corporation and Compagnia Realizzazioni Cinetelevisive.
"Cannes will be Lion's kick-off," says Cifola. "Our aim is to build a compact, international slate. We want to represent films from all over the world. We'll be in Cannes looking for international titles and co-producers for Fortune-Teller," says Cifola, admitting he wants to emulate French and Germany sales companies with strong international slates.
'I've seen a lot of colleagues taking this international approach in Europe and I want to do the same from Italy," he continues.
Other new titles on Lion's fledgling slate include Lorenzo Sportiello's sci-fi drama Index Zero, starring Simon Merrells and Ana Ularu, which started principal photography in Bulgaria.
The slate also features Alessandro Piva's Naples-set, Mafia drama The Crime Family, Davide Ferrario's 45th Parallel (La Luna su Torino) about three people living in the same house in Turin. The title refers to the northern Italian city's position just south of the 45th parallel.

Glatfelter names new finance team
Glatfelter Inc. shook up its finance team this week, naming two new vice presidents who will report to John Jacunski, executive vice president and CEO.
Amy Wannemacher is promoted to vice president of tax, and Ramesh Shettigar joins Glatfelter as vice president and treasurer, the company said in a news release.
"These leadership changes continue to build upon the foundation of talent within the finance function to meet the growing demands of the business," Jacunski said. "I am pleased to announce Amy's promotion as she is a well-respected leader who has built an effective global tax team that has executed tax strategies designed to create value for our stakeholders.

As vice president and treasurer, Shettigar will assume responsibility for Glatfelter's treasury functions, with responsibilities for global cash and debt management, pensions, insurance, risk management and capital markets activity. This includes developing key relationships with banks and rating agencies.
Most recently, he served as the director of treasury at Quest Diagnostics. During his tenure, he also served as director of financial planning and analysis for the hospital operations. Prior leadership roles include assignments with Praxair Inc., Delphi Corp., and McDermott International.
Shettigar earned a bachelor of science degree in business administration/finance from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In addition, he has a master's degree in information management from Washington University and a master's degree in business administration, finance and strategy from the Washington University Olin School of Business in St. Louis.

Following preparations for the #3 Michigan Wolverines, Bob Huggins noted that his team has failed to execute many of the things he and his coaches have reviewed prior to each game. Whether that's due to simple inattention, excitement in the heat of the game or a failure to learn, the problem is that the Mountaineers aren't doing the things the game plan calls for.
That problem gave Huggins the chance to relate a story from his days at Walsh college, and a lesson from Sister Maria Elena on the way different people learn.
Huggins also discussed the challenges of defending a Michigan team that executes its offense to near perfection, and the one thing that every attack shares in college basketball.

Pension Loans Scheme
A scheme that uses the capital you have tied up in real estate as a non-taxable loan.
Eligibility & payment rates
About the scheme
The Pension Loans Scheme is a voluntary arrangement that provides support in the form of a loan for either a short time or an indefinite period.
It is paid in fortnightly non-taxable instalments. You can nominate to receive an amount up to the maximum Age Pension rate.
You may be eligible for a loan under the scheme if:
- you or your partner is of age pension age
- you have equity in real estate in Australia to use as security for the loan
- you or your partner receives a reduced, or nil, rate of a qualifying payment for the scheme due to the application of either the income or the assets test, but not both, and
- you meet Age Pension residence requirements
You can get a top up payment under the scheme if you receive less than the maximum rate of:
- Age Pension
- Bereavement Allowance
- Carer Payment
- Disability Support Pension
- Widow B Pension
- Wife Pension
The scheme is not available if you receive the maximum rate of any of these qualifying payments. However, you can access the loan if you are of age pension age but, because of assets or income but not both, are either ineligible for a qualifying payment or only eligible for a reduced payment rate.
Making a claim under the scheme does not stop you from making a claim under the assets hardship provisions. However, you will only be paid under one of these provisions.
Costs and interest rate
All costs associated with establishing, changing and finalising the loan, such as legal and solicitor costs, are your responsibility. We will send you a letter when the loan has been established, to tell you the amount we will recover from you. You can choose to pay these costs immediately or we can add the costs to the outstanding loan balance.
Compound interest is charged on the outstanding loan balance. Currently, the rate is 5.25%. The interest rate is applied to the outstanding loan balance each fortnight. Interest continues to accrue until the loan is repaid and increases the amount to be repaid. The longer you take to repay the outstanding loan balance the more you will have to repay at the end of the loan.
The outstanding loan balance consists of the principal loan amount plus accrued interest plus any outstanding costs, minus any repayments made.
Your scheme payment is reviewed regularly.
Repaying the loan
You can repay a loan under the scheme in part or full at any time. If you wish to sell the real estate used as security for the loan, you need to contact us before organising the sale. You will need to make arrangements for the loan to be repaid at the time of the sale.
The loan can also be repaid from your or your surviving partner's estate after your death.
Payment rates
You can nominate to get a top up amount of payment each fortnight under the scheme. The amount you receive can be up to the maximum amount allowed for your payment type.
The total loan amount you can get depends on:
- the equity you have in the property you offer as security
- the equity you wish to keep in the property, and
- your age when the loan is granted
The loan payments you receive are not subject taxable.
Security on the loan
Your loan must be secured by Australian real estate in which you have an interest, for example your principal home.
You may also be able to use Australian real estate owned by a private company or trust, for which you are attributed as controller, as security for a loan under the scheme.
We register a charge with the Land Titles Office on the title deed of the property you offer as security. You will have to pay any costs associated with registering and removing this charge.
The real estate you offer as security for your loan will be valued independently by a licensed valuer. This is done at no cost to you.
If you have more than one property, you can choose which to use in the assessment for a loan.
Once you have read about eligibility the next steps are:
- register an intent to claim
- complete your forms and meet with a Financial Information Service officer
- submit your claim form and supporting documentation
- we will assess your claim and let you know the outcome
Managing your payment
Change of circumstances
You need to tell us when your circumstances change, for example before you sell the property you used as security for your loan.
You need to let us know about any changes to your circumstances within 14 days in case they affect your loan payments.
My bank account is overdrawn
You can get help to manage your money if your bank account is overdrawn.
Make an informed decision
We offer a free and confidential Financial Information Service (FIS) to help you with your financial matters.
Before submitting your claim you must meet with one of our FIS officers to discuss the terms and conditions of the scheme. The FIS officer will provide information on the issues you should consider when deciding whether to apply for the scheme.
To speak to a FIS officer, call 132 300.
Payment and Service Finder
Find, estimate and compare payments and services you may be eligible for. You can also work out what a change in circumstance might mean for the payments and services you currently receive from us.
Manage your money
We've got advice and tools to help you with budgeting, borrowing and credit, and managing debt.

How Much Water to Drink? 8 Water Facts and Questions Answered (Page 7)
The More Water, the Better, Right?
Not necessarily. It is possible to overdo it. Water intoxication, or hyponatremia, a serious condition when blood sodium levels drop precipitously, can be caused by sweating excessively over several hours and drinking way too much water (versus a sports drink) while not eating or urinating (which often slows during intense physical activity). This could happen to someone who engages in a long athletic event (e.g., a marathon or multi-day hike). Symptoms include confusion, disorientation, weakness and nausea. Hyponatremia can lead to seizures, coma and death without prompt medical attention.

Has anyone ever had neuticles implanted in their dog?
How did it go? Did they look and feel natural? Would you do it again? I never thought I would even entertain the thought of getting them but I saw a dog the other day with a shriveled up sac between its legs and I don't want my baby to look like that!! Just was curious if anyone has tried it yet.

Hmmm... Your dog is nine years old. Why bother even neutering him since (I presume) you have had no testicle-related trouble with him? His behavior will probably not change either, since his habits are pretty well-formed.
Sorry, not exactly answering your question, but why get fakes when you could just let him keep the real ones?
(Bruno is neutered, no sign of even a shriveled sack. Sometimes it shrinks away to nothing.)
Bruno CGC answered on 8/9/10. Helpful? / 0
It is very rare for the scrotum to NOT shrink back to nothing. In the case of large breed, older dogs the vet usually removes part of the scrotum if it is exceptionally large and saggy. Perhaps the one you saw had just been neutered recently?
I can't imagine your dog cares whether he has testicles or not.
Toto was neutered at four years old and he has NO sack.
Member 641257 answered on 8/9/10. Helpful? / 0
Plastic surgery for dogs is crazy. Deogie is neutered and has no "shriveled sac" but IF he did I certainly wouldn't care. As long as he's healthy, happy and safe who cares what his sac looks like.
♥ DEOGIE ♥ answered on 8/9/10. Helpful? / 1
My vet the last time I neutered a dog left his skin there and I think that helped the dog not freak out later about them not being there. He would groom down there so he might of never noticed.
I think if his skin is there that is all he needs. I don't think they think like us in that way. He is most likely not even concerned about it since they are gone now.
Baxter answered on 8/9/10. Helpful? / 0
I agree with Deogie.
Every time you put your dog under general anesthesia, it's very risky. Why would anyone want to do this unless they absolutely had to?
Also, implants of any kind in a dog's body carry the very real risk of infection, immediately following surgery or later on. Sometimes, dogs have had very specific types of cancers develop around the site of micro-chips. The body can wall off what the immune system perceives as being foreign and this can cause all sorts of problems. I would imagine neuticles can do the same thing.
I wouldn't go into something like this lightly if you decide to do it at all. It won't enhance his health in any way and it's cosmetic reasons are purely human and have nothing to do with the safety or well being of the dog.

If It's Only Half-Broke, Don't Fix It?
In their tumultuous career, the Police managed to bridge the experimental new wave scene and the world of '80s corporate rock. Their work, as a result, features adventurous and unconventional approaches standing side-by-side with middle-of-the-road pop banalities, often within the same song. Could any other band create a strange and undulating stalker anthem that doubles as a wedding song? The Police's mixture of the offbeat and the easily accessible, however, makes the band strangely anthology-resistant. A mere compilation of the Police's greatest hits can only trivialize the band by turning them into the arena rock outfit that they never quite were.
This is the third version of Every Breath You Take. The first edition was, apparently, supposed to be the Police's final album, but the band broke up after a hideous, self-sabotaged re-recording of "Don't Stand So Close to Me". This slight collection contained all of the massive hits, with the exception of "Don't Stand So Close to Me" which was replaced by the ill-advised '86 remake. As a stopgap attempt to squeeze a dead band for one last wad of big cash, Every Breath You Take—The Singles was an unqualified success. As a satisfying retrospective of the band's career, it was lacking. Although all the biggest of the biggest hits were represented, in fact coming one after another, the band's lesser successes were left behind. Even "Synchronicity II", a pretty massive radio hit, was left off the album, presumably because unlike all the other songs on the collection, its title wasn't in the song's chorus and none of the executives remembered how it went. The result was, like Bob Marley's Legend, a collection of music for people who only had a passing interest in music. It was ample proof of Bruce McCullough's now-legendary declaration that "greatest hits albums are for housewives and little girls".
The Police
Every Breath You Take -- the Classics (Remastered)
US: 11 Jan 2005
UK: Available as import
In the nineties, the album was reissued as Every Breath You Take—The Classics. Unfortunately, few of the original collections' mistakes were revised. The original version of "Don't Stand So Close to Me" finally took its rightful place on the album, but the remake inexplicably remained. Beyond that, the only difference between Classics and Singles was the inclusion of a "new classic rock mix" of "Message in a Bottle" that was probably an attempt to get Police completists to shell out money on what was essentially a reissue. Neither move improved the overall skimpy nature of the collection. Even a subsequent bargain bin Greatest Hits album had a more thorough tracklist and delved deeper into the Police's catalogue.
On this third try, the producers do little more than remaster the Classics album, so apparently this is now the official canonical Police anthology. In defense of the album, the remastering job does actually improve the collection. The improved sound does a lot to highlight the subtleties of Andy Summers's guitar work. His "white reggae" rhythm guitar work, not to mention his almost subliminal dub-inspired sound effects did much to make even straightforward pop songs such as "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" or "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da" sound radically different from other hits of the era. The rhythm section also gets its due; I had never even noticed how Sting incorporated a subtle funk line in the middle of "King of Pain". The remastering does much to highlight what made the Police interesting. However, any fan who would want a no-surprises collection from the Police would probably not care enough to notice the superior sound.
Song-for-song, Every Breath You Take is a great collection. Beyond the two "bonus" tracks, every song on this collection is a certifiable classic. That might be the problem. These songs are such a part of the public consciousness that listening to them back to back becomes quite a chore. The little iconoclastic tricks that make the Police interesting are smoothed over by the greatest hits format. With only "Walking on the Moon" and "Invisible Sun" as dark-horse choices for "classics", the rest of the album gives the false impression that the band were actually tailoring their music for the car ads and movie trailers the songs would eventually be used in.
If someone at A&M had a little imagination and was willing to overhaul the tracklist even slightly, Every Breath You Take could have really been the canonical anthology that the label is trying to label it. If the "bonus tracks" were taken away, and a few album sides or English singles were included (I would make a strong case for "Canary in a Coalmine", but I know that it's a hopeless cause), Every Breath You Take could have been a comprehensive portrait of an adventurous band that never left behind a definitive album. As it is, it sounds like just more product from the band that gave birth to Sting's listless solo career. The band deserves more.

Highwire stuntman plans to cross Grand Canyon without a tether
By David Schwartz
PHOENIX (Reuters) - Aerialist Nik Wallenda plans to cross the Grand Canyon in June on a tightrope 1,500 feet in the air, without a safety harness - a feat that will be televised live.
Wallenda said he would traverse a remote section of crimson-hued canyon owned by the Navajo Nation in what will be his first major stunt since he last year became the only person to walk a wire over the brink of Niagara Falls.
"This is another one of my dreams coming true," Wallenda, 34, told Reuters in a brief telephone interview. "This is one that has been on my bucket list for some time."
Wallenda, a seventh-generation member of the "Flying Wallendas" acrobat family, said the tightrope walk across the famed gorge is higher than he has ever before attempted. The walk, scheduled for June 23, will also be about 1,500 feet long.
Wallenda had bristled at wearing a safety tether during his Niagara Falls crossing last June. But ABC, the television network that aired the event, said it would pull the plug on the broadcast if he unhooked the harness.
The tether was never needed as Wallenda took 25 minutes to complete the walk from the United States to Canada while some 200 feet above the falls.
Wallenda said not using a tether this time was non-negotiable in his talks with those bidding to air the Grand Canyon crossing. It will be televised live on the Discovery Channel.
"I always said it was my dream to walk across Niagara Falls and I felt that part of that dream was taken away because I had to wear a tether," Wallenda said. "That wasn't going to happen again if I had anything to do with it." Continued...
