Intrapleural analgesia following endoscopic scoliosis correction
Morris, Stephen A., Izatt, Maree T., Labrom, Robert D., Adam, Clayton J., & Askin, Geoffrey N. (2012) Intrapleural analgesia following endoscopic scoliosis correction. In Spine Society of Australia 23rd Annual Scientific Meeting, 27-29 April 2012, The Westin, Sydney, NSW.
Accepted Version
(PDF 264kB)
Endoscopic (thoracoscopic) scoliosis correction plays an important part in the surgical options available for treating adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. However, there is a paucity of literature examining optimum methods of analgesia following this type of surgery. Intra-pleural analgesia has been successfully used following cardiothoracic procedures [1-3]. The role of intra-pleural analgesia after keyhole anterior selective thoracic scoliosis correction is examined and described.

UPDATE 2-Spain wants sharp subsidy cut for solar plants
* Lobby says Spain wants 30 pct cut for operating plants
* Wants to cut subsidies for future plants by 25-45 pct
* Industry lobby says cuts would mortally wound sector
(Adds detail on timings of cuts, further comment)
By Jonathan Gleave
MADRID, June 16 (Reuters) - The Spanish government is proposing sharp cuts in subsidies for solar plants, which could hurt both domestic and international solar companies operating in the country, industry lobbyists said on Wednesday.
Spain wants to cut existing solar panel plants' subsidies by 30 percent and future ones by 45 percent for big floor-mounted units and 25 percent for smaller roof mounted ones, Spanish solar power lobby ASIF spokesman Tomas Diaz said.
"This (proposal) would destroy the government's renewables-friendly policy and kill us all off," Diaz said after solar lobby groups met with Spain's Secretary of State for Energy Pedro Marin. Continued...

Kranjcar wants Modric link-up
Niko Kranjcar is relishing the prospect of lining up alongside fellow Croatian Luka Modric at Spurs.
Last Updated: 17/12/09 6:18pm
Niko Kranjcar is relishing the prospect of lining up alongside Croatian compatriot Luka Modric at Tottenham.
Harry Redknapp decided to raid Portsmouth for Kranjcar at the end of the summer transfer window after Modric suffered a fractured fibula against Birmingham in late August.
Modric has now returned to fitness and is such an essential part of Redknapp's plans that he is expected to reclaim a regular starting place over the next few weeks.
However, Kranjcar has excelled in the left midfield role that Modric used to occupy and the Spurs manager may be forced into a rethink.
Kranjcar insists the two can play effectively in the same team as they have done at international level, with Modric slotting into a more central position.
"I believe we play well together for the national team and I hope we're going to play together for Tottenham," said Kranjcar.
"For Croatia, he plays in the middle of midfield and I play down the left.
"We've proved throughout our careers that we can play together and that teams benefit from us two playing together.
"All we want is for Luka to get back to match fitness as soon as he can because he's a fantastic player who opens doors in games."
Room for improvement
Tottenham produced a sparkling performance in a 3-0 victory over Manchester City on Wednesday but they have struggled to reach such a level consistently.
Kranjcar feels Spurs have to learn to play against teams who set out to defend.
He explained: "In the games where we have a lot of room, we're going to show our qualities and prove we have a team and a squad better than most.
"Against teams like Wolves, who are hard to break down, we have to work on creating more chances and moving the ball even more quickly."

The Ultimate Commitment to Place
October 15, 2011, Washington, DC: It's totally trendy, I know. But I'm among many city dwellers who are captivated by life on the farm, ranch, orchard and vineyard. We go to farmer's markets. We select wines because they come from vineyards close to home. Over dinners out, we daydream about getting callouses working with our hands. We chat with friends about their weekly milk and cheese delivery that comes in from Maryland. We love that article we just read about Brooklyn Grange, the world's largest rooftop farm. We book tables for the upcoming Dine Out For Farms week. Think what you will, but I'm intrigued.
I consider this today at Butler's Orchard in Germantown, MD, a trek that's becoming something of an autumn ritual since we've lived in Washington. Among pumpkins, mums and apple cider, I think about why I'm so interested in places like this one and the lifestyles of the people who live here. I have a hunch it goes beyond eating local and supporting our economy close to home. It has something to do with being a nomad.

"Our vision and dedication to the sport of polo has led us to further expand our involvement in the sport by providing a unique and sophisticated line of clothing," stated Shah Quraeshi, Escue Polo's managing director. "Our apparel will not only complement any polo player's fashion, but will also enhance the wardrobe of those who want to make a statement in the community… And now, with the Escue Polo PowerChannel, we have an opportunity to engage with our clients in a powerful new way," Shah continued.

FOR RELEASE: Immediate, Monday, May 21, 2001
May 21, Batavia – The NJCAA Division III World
Series adventure ended for Hudson Valley Community College's baseball team
today. After falling behind 5-0 in the first inning, the Vikings, competing
in the World Series for the first time 19 years, mounted a mid-game rally
against Columbus State Community College at Batavia's Dwyer Field this
afternoon, but it was not enough. The Vikings lost their second game of
the double-elimination tournament, 7-3.
"It's really hard to come back from a five-run inning
against the kind of teams that are here," said Tom Reinisch, Hudson Valley's
head coach. "They just came out smoking the ball."
Hudson Valley spotted Columbus State five runs –
allowing five hits and committing an error in the bottom of the first frame
– but the Vikings did not lie down. Nick Borgia (Scotia-Glenville),
who tossed a complete-game victory against Quinsigamond Community College
on Saturday, came on in relief for Hudson Valley in the first inning and
threw until the eighth.
A Second Team All-Region III selection, Borgia struck
out four batters and allowed just four hits.
"He was awesome," Reinisch said. "And he did it on
just one day's rest. He should have been the Most Valuable Player of the
game, for either team."
While Borgia quieted Columbus State's bats, Hudson
Valley chipped away at the plate. Justin Meaghar (Colonie) continued
his hot streak – he had at least one hit in all three of Hudson Valley's
World Series games – leading off the bottom of the fourth inning with a
single and coming around to score on a Ryan McGinniss (Catholic Central)
double. Mike "Bubba" Martin (Lansingburgh) checked in to run
for McGinniss and crossed home when Chad Sydor (Troy) reached on
an error.
Then, in the sixth, McGinniss led off with a single
and was again replaced by Martin, who eventually scored on a wild pitch.
The Vikings, however, could not muster any more offense.
"We're fine," Reinisch said. "We're reflecting on
the season right now. We finished at 33-10; we did OK."
McGinniss and Meaghar each contributed a pair
of hits. As Reinisch said, Hudson Valley finished the season with a 33-10
record. Columbus State (48-20) will play the winner of a game between Quinsigamond
(33-13) and Montgomery College (29-28).
"Shoot, even to come out here and win a game is great,"
Reinisch said. "You know, we're at the World Series. We had a great season."
Columbus State 7, Hudson Valley 3
Hudson Valley Community College, located in Troy,
offers more than 50 degree and certificate programs in four academic divisions;
Business; Engineering and Industrial Technologies; Health Sciences; and
Liberal Arts and Sciences. One of 30 community colleges in the State University
of New York system, Hudson Valley has an enrollment of more than 9,000
students each year, and is known as a leader in distance learning initiatives
and worker retraining.

Anyways, I've been thinking lately about end of the year gifts for my kiddos. Don't hate me but I only have 7 1/2 days left with the kids. I always try to get my kiddos a book but the other parts change each year.
Since I have some new followers since last spring, I thought you might be interested in viewing my linky party for end of the year gifts. There are some awesome ideas that are linked up.
Here is a freebie that I made for the end of the year. You can find them by clicking on the image above to view the original post.
I've updated the gift tag I created for this school year. You can find the updated version for free on TPT.
Here are some other ideas you can find in the linky party:


text:
"Customized this with bright pink and yellow for my daughter's first birthday party - they turned out so spectacular. ONLY criticism is that the weight of the stickers is a bit thin... but used them as seals for her invitations and they perfectly coordinated with the address labels (same Fantastic First group, which I also customized). Happy customer!"
"I wasn't sure how the chalkboard effect would come across on these sticker tags, but it looks great! We attached these to small bottles of bubble soap as party favors. A huge hit!"
"I wanted stickers to seal Valentine's treat bags for class - This design is perfect for boys, as most are quite girly (not that there's anything wrong with that!)."
"Matching tags I got with my sons invitations. Was surprised as I was expecting something bigger but a in actual fact nice and small. These a stickers and il be using them on the kids party/loot bags."
"I had my daughter-in-laws name placed on these...... "Mandy's Baby Shower" and the date of the baby shower underneath..... added a very personal touch to the shower gifts for those attending her shower. Loved the design."

20 years of research and miraculous discoveries have un-veiled a music long forgotten in the history of Scottish music. For the first time in 500 years, the music of Rosslyn Chapel can be heard explained in extra-ordinary detail, beautifully portrayed using original instruments of their time. No element has been left out, not one stone un-turned. The intended music of William St Clair hides many secret's and a new book by Thomas Mitchell (Stuart's father) tells a story of music and symbolism and how it all connects to the creation of life.

White House Announces $100 Million "BRAIN" Mapping Initiative
Tiffany Kaiser
April 2, 2013 12:53 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
The idea behind the BRAIN Initiative is to gain a deeper understanding of the complex connections in the brain and their relationship with how the rest of the body behaves
The Obama administration announced the BRAIN Initiative today, which is a $100 million research project to accelerate our
understanding of the human brain
The BRAIN Initiative, which stands for Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies, will be considered one of the administration's "Grand Challenges" of the 21st century.
The idea behind the BRAIN Initiative is to gain a deeper understanding of the
complex connections in the brain
and their relationship with how the rest of the body behaves. With this knowledge, medical conditions like Alzheimer's, autism, epilepsy and schizophrenia could eventually be understood and treated more effectively -- with the hopes of one day being cured.
In addition, this initiative could lead to job creation and economic growth through new innovations and opportunities.
The BRAIN Initiative is launching with about $100 million in funding in the Fiscal Year 2014 budget. The research is supported by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the National Science Foundation (NSF).
Private funding will come into play as well. For example, the Allen Institute for Brain Science will pay at least $60 million annually for BRAIN Initiative projects.
Many brain-related advances have come through recently, such as that
from the
Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI)
. The team
used high-speed light sheet microscopy to achieve whole brain imaging of the brain of a fish larva. They were able to image the activity of 80 percent of the neurons in the brain at speeds of a whole brain every 1.3 seconds.
Last year,
MIT and Georgia Institute of Technology researchers have created a new automated method that pinpoints certain characteristics of
neurons in the brain
The White House Blog
"Intel is investing heavily (think gazillions of dollars and bazillions of engineering man hours) in resources to create an Intel host controllers spec in order to speed time to market of the USB 3.0 technology." -- Intel blogger Nick Knupffer

Bored Queen quickly becomes Internet sensation
They said these would be the 'most connected' Olympics yet, and so far that has proven true. Unfortunately for Queen Elizabeth that means becoming the butt of a joke mere seconds after being caught looking disconnected on live TV.
As Team GB entered Olympic Stadium to thunderous applause during the opening ceremonies, the camera cut to Her Majesty ... who was doing her nails.
Cue Internet citizens and meme generators and you get gems like the one above, and these ...
For British citizens used to seeing her stoic face, perhaps these shots were all too familiar. For a few billion others watching it, they wondered if maybe she wasn't nursing an injury from arriving at the ceremony like this:

His comments came as the committee published a critical report on the visa clearance scam exposed by James Cameron, the senior Foreign Office visa manager in Bucharest, which culminated in the resignation last year of Beverley Hughes, the immigration minister.
The report says that despite promises by David Blunkett, the former home secretary, to remove some 90% of those who got into Britain, hardly any had been traced.
Only 150 of the migrants had set up the legitimate businesses in Britain they had promised as a condition of entry.
The MPs' report released internal Home Office figures which showed that visa applications from the two countries had risen from 63 in 2001-02 to more than 8,000 by 2003-04.
The report praises the suspended whistleblower, Mr Cameron, for "bringing important failures to light". It added: "He had for some time tried to draw attention to his concerns ... before taking a route of disclosure which constituted a breach in procedures."
MPs are critical that "no disciplinary action has yet been taken against those who failed to act when staff at entry clearance posts expressed their concerns".
Mr Leigh said: "The Home Office was wrong to dismiss these objections without getting legal advice on whether its interpretation of legal precedents was correct.
"The Home Office now needs to focus on removing those who have not set up a valid business, bearing in mind that entry clearance staff estimate that they would have granted a visa to fewer than 10% of the 7,000 individuals who entered the UK."
The report also says that demands for visas from around the world had increased by 33% in five years and officials spent only 11 minutes processing each of them.

Ugh. My car is collapsing :(
All in the last two weeks:
a) Clacking noise when turning in the parking garage. Probably a CV joint boot has torn and lost all its grease. Yuck, that's something I'm not sure I want to try tackling DIY yet, after looking it over in my minty-fresh Bentley manual.
b) Rear passenger window regulator failed catastrophically.
c) Green fluid leaking from the car. Thankfully it's just a leak at the windshield washer tank/pump. Yes, the washer fluid I filled with is green... but not after scaring me with doomsday thoughts of a catastrophic coolant leak.
d) Ordered a cooling system kit from Max. This will be interesting. Will I do it correctly?
e) While searching item "c)" above noticed baked oil on the metal flange above the exhaust manifold near the valve cover. Guess I need a VCG too.
e2) Maybe the oil separator valve is failing. See e) above...
f) Oil leaking around the oil filter cap. Hopefully it's just my bungling the o-ring install last time I changed the oil. That or it was defective. Or I slightly cross threaded the cap.
g) Realizing my battery is 7 years old. Still works good (no gremlins) but a ticking time bomb...
h) Spare tire is flat.
i) Oil change kit ordered from Max was marked "damaged in transit" by UPS. As he put it, would hate to be the UPS driver covered in motor oil!
j) Power steering fluid cap collects gunk like crazy. Or is that brake fluid... to the right of the oil filter. By now it's gotta be low.
It's an expensive month and I'm nervous about doing the work -- gotta do it soon before the weather gets nasty.
Can folks recommend tricks for the stuff above? Eg:
1) what torque wrench would you recommend buying?
2) what tools will work to get the radiator fan off the water pump shaft? Smolck says a long wrench and sledge, what size sledge? should I get pipe to put over the wrench end? use a socket wrench or regular spanner style wrench?
3) What's the easy way to capture/evacuate the coolant?
4) How to best scrape the old VCG off?
5) What's a reasonable price to have the CV boots replaced?
6) How can I tell if I have jack pads or not? Do I need to buy those?
Thank you in advance for your support and help.. I'm definitely nervous about the cooling system refresh.
Oil change and window regulator don't scare me at all but the cooling system does. I'll have to buy jack stands, a torque wrench, and who knows what all else.

Target: Portland Metro
Goal: Compensate Yamhill Country farmers and residents for pollution and runoff from Oregon's largest landfill
Oregon's largest landfill, Riverbend Landfill, is threatening water, land, and air in Yamhill County. Plans in 2008 extended the life of the landfill. It is now projected to be closed in 2044 instead of 2014. Farmers and citizens in the area are starting to speak up to stop America's largest garbage company, Waste Management, Inc., who owns the Riverbend Landfill, from polluting their land, water, and air.
Started in 1982 by Waste Management, Inc., the Riverbend Landfill now covers 85 acres and rises 135 feet tall. According to current plans, it will only continue to expand. This massive landfill is located at the bend in Yamhill River. It is close enough to the water that citizens are concerned about their water supply being polluted by toxins released into the water table. This would affect everyone in Yamhill county including well-known Oregon farms.
Five hundred family farms are within three miles of the landfill. The area hosts various types of farms including apples, wheat, hazelnut, and grapes. Half a dozen vineyards and award-winning wineries are within four miles of the landfill. If toxins leaked into the water table, these Oregon farms that help the state of Oregon achieve high acclaim as a leader in the nation's farm-to-table movement and in wine production would be ruined.
Farmers and families in Yamhill County are worried about their water as well as their roads. Countless trucks pass through Yamhill County towns on their way to the landfill. One town, Carlton, will soon present a case for compensation from Portland Metro. Over 400 tons of trash on trucks and trailer rigs make their way to the Riverbend Landfill through Carlton each weekday. These trucks cause damage on roads that would otherwise not take such a heavy load. Carlton city officials have jumped on the bandwagon of the Riverbend Landfill protestors from Yamhill County, the most noteworthy being Ramsey McPhillips of McMinnville.
Farmers in the area are banding together to stop the expansion of the landfill and to demand compensation for hosting trash from Portland's metropolitan area, which contributes to half of the waste in the landfill. The landfill has created a new landscape, endangers water quality, emits foul smells, and turns off tourists. Dumps like this one are Oregon's number one cause of methane emissions.
Waste Management, Inc., a $13.4 billion Fortune 500 company, has no plans to stop expansion. It is up to Portland Metro to heed the words of Yamhill County citizens and develop a plan with Waste Management, Inc. to compensate affected areas, to stop expansion, and to come up with an innovative idea for future waste management. Yamhill County is a model of Oregonian farming that is globally recognized. Portland Metro, the Portland metropolitan area regional government entity, needs to work in conjunction with Waste Management, Inc. to formulate a plan that will save this agricultural hotspot from being buried under trash.
Support Yamhill County citizens in their fight for fair compensation from Portland Metro for damages attributed to waste headed to the Riverbend Landfill.
Dear Portland Metro,
Yamhill County citizens are reaching out to you to work with them to make waste management fair. It is important that you listen to their needs and accomodate. They are letting you discard trash from your city in their county. Based on recent plans, the 18-story tall landfill will expand exponentially over the next 30 years. It matters that you make a fair judgement on how to handle the expansion.
You should work with Waste Management, Inc. to compensate Yamhill County for at least half of the damages caused by the landfill operations including damages to roads, land, and water. In the meantime, it is important that you begin planning a better solution for Portland's waste so the Riverbend Landfill is closed on time.

|The 3rd to last bolt on pitch 2 has been flattened by rock fall. couldnt fit a nano biner through but was able to girth hitch a very thin spectra sling (smaller than mammut, which probably wont fit). The bolt is skippable as the next isnt too far away. This route bested my partner and I yesterday. I found it very difficult for .10+. Couldn't climb the first pitch clean at all, even on top rope. couldnt make it past 6th bolt (hard move left) but was able to sneak right around corner with g ear. we bailed at the 3rd bolt of the 3 rd pitch after I took a pendulum that sent me through a small tree. could not figure out beta here, whether you go straight up (very difficult) or traverse right. If someone knows the beta please pm me. I was stumped! twice as hard as stifflers. which I found casual in comparison.

Traditionally these are used for special occasions such as holidays, thank you cards or event invitations. Our standard greeting cards are printed on high-quality card stock. Our 16pt tends to be the most commonly ordered product, however 15c1s greeting cards are easier to write on the insides due to the coated side being on the front and back while the insides are uncoated. Our greeting cards are scored and shipped flat. We can supply either printed or unprinted envelopes. The printed envelopes must be uploaded as a separate order in addition to the greeting cards, where the unprinted can be added as an option. Normally clients place a picture or decorative motif on the front and a printed message on the insides, but that is something you can work out with your client during the design phase of your project.
16pt c2s
16pt c2s is thicker than standard business cards and adds more rigidity to your printed product. It has a glossy finish and steadier feel than business cards produced by copiers. This is our most common card stock used in a wide range of products such as business cards, post cards and presentations folders to state a few.
AQ Gloss
AQ is an abbreviation for Aqueous Coating. It is a semi-gloss applied to your job during the printing process, environmentally friendly, water-based coating applied to both sides of you printed product. It adds additional gloss and protection, and you are able to write on it with ballpoint pens.
UV High Gloss
UV is an abbreviation for Ultraviolet Coating. It is a high gloss clear liquid; spread over the paper like ink and then cured instantly with an ultraviolet light. It is not an ideal solution for products you will need to write on.
Artwork/File Orientation is only relevant for two side jobs or multiple pages of artwork. Please ensure that your artwork is submitted 'press ready' and that the orientation is correct to deliver the finished product you are looking for. Careful attention should be made to ensure the product is press ready with proper orientation, as our workflow does not allow for changing this once a file has been uploaded. The following guideline will assist you to visually understand what proper file orientation needs to look like.
Preparing Files for Print
General Artwork Preparation Guidelines
Download our template/guide to ensure proper placement of images and text.
Each order submitted including multiple paged projects MUST be submitted as a single PDF file. Please ensure that all pages have the proper orientation to ensure proper back up. They must also have bleed and make sure each page are all the same size.
It is always a best practice to try to avoid using borders in your design. If a border is too close to the trim, the trim may be slightly off-center. Even a hairline difference can cause your design to look off centered.
File must consist of a 1/16" bleed (books and magazines will require an 1/8"). All of the relevent graphics and text must be within the safety margin unless you intend to have part of it cut off(this is sometimes the desired effect, so please make sure it is done the way you would like it printed)
Ensure that your PDF process colour (CMYK) and saved in high resolution. As a rule it is suggested all files should be saved at 300 DPI. Spot Colours and coating will need to be set up as such within the chosen layers. Additional charges will apply if applicable.
We recommend that all black type should have the following values: C0, M0, Y0, K100.
Make sure all of your fonts are properly embed or outline when saving your file as a PDF.
In order to achieve the best colour results, it is important for you to supply your artwork as CMYK files. If your artwork is submitted as RGB, it will be converted to CMYK and may not match the colours you are expecting. Please note that all offset printed work is printed in CMYK or PMS and can not be produced in RGB unless converted. This is an automated process for us and we suggest if you are designing your files, you should also consider designing in CMYK mode instead of RGB.
See our FAQ page for more details.
Large Format Guidelines
Although bleed is not required for large format projects, often it is preferred. When saving your artwork if you wish to have bleed, please add 1/8" to your canvas size.
Please compress your file using a ZIP file compressor to reduce the file size and speed up the uploading process when submitting your orders.
Coated 1 Side (C1S) Guidelines
Please follow the general artwork guidelines and…
Be sure that the first page of your PDF file is the side that you want to be on the coated side of the card. Please keep in mind that the second page of your PDF will always be printed on the uncoated side.
Envelopes Guidelines
Please use crop marks to help us align your logo placement. In the absence of crop marks, printing will be 3/8" from the top based on general industry standards for envelopes.
All text must be within the safe margin. Envelope artwork cannot have bleed unless they have been custom quoted by our estimating department and if this is the case, the must be submitted as a custom upload order.
Please make sure that you do not have creative or text 1/8" from any of the edges.
Numbered Tickets Guidelines
In order to make sure your ticket order is numbered correctly, ensure that you include the following files:
Your PDF file of your artwork (with no numbering in the artwork)
Also include an excel or csv file containing list of numbers you will need printed on your tickets.
Please make a mock up version of your artwork showing where and how you need the numbers placed. Please make sure this file is clearly labeled as a mocked up sample.
Variable Printing Guidelines
In order to make sure your variable printing order is produced correctly, please ensure that you include the following files:
Your PDF file of your artwork (without any variable text in it).
Also include an excel or csv file containing list of variable data you need printed on your order.
Please make a mock up version of your artwork showing where and how you need the variable data placed. Please make sure this file is clearly labeled as a mocked up sample.
If you would like a set up guide or template for your order, please email email@example.com and we will send you one. Within the next two weeks we will be populating the largest selection of templates available. Thanks again for working with Printer Gateway Inc.
Turnaround is always an important factor to consider when placing an order. Fortunately, we have established a reputation for having the industry's fastest printing service. In fact, we are the only trade print provider to offer Same Day service as a regular service option for offset, digital and wide format printing. We have consistently operated 24 hours every day. That is equal to 3 x 8 hour shifts per day and we do this 7 days per week. That is the same as 4 x 40hr shifts per week. In short, we do in one day what most printer are able to do in three. At Printer Gateway we realize that time is critical and our job is to make you look amazing to your customers. With that in mind, we have organized our workflow to support various turnaround times/production service levels designed to help you present time-driven options for your clients in order to meet their needs. Take advantage of the turnaround time choices we make available so you can meet every deadline with confidence.
There are other turnaround times available within our website. However they follow the same logic as the chart above. Please use this as a guide and manage your clients' expectations accordingly. Please note these times are based on receiving press ready files. Any errors or corrections may lead to a longer than desired production process as it adds additional processing time.
Selecting additional options when ordering from our store may add additional turn around times to your submitted jobs. You will get an email within a few minutes of submitting a job that helps confirm the turn around time after the job has been submitted. This will almost always include the addition time based on the extra finishing options selected.
Turnaround times are normally calculated online based on store-based orders. Any custom uploads/orders may not have this amount of detail as projects will vary. In most cases, your live status link will still provide an estimated finish date and you will still receive a notice in real time once your order has been completed.
Orders that will be picked up: Please allow a business hour or two after the turnaround to prepare packages for pickup. Although they should be ready, you should always wait until you get an email notification that the job is ready. This notification is sent our by our system in real time the moment your job is boxed.
If our prepress department has approved your order(s) and payment have been processed by 3pm EST, your turnaround time will begin the next business day.
When choosing a custom stock, you can experience delays beyond our control as we can not start the job until we have stock on the floor. Please take custom stock requests into consideration when ordering time-sensitive jobs. One useful best practice is to add 'or an equivalent stock'. This often gives us additional paper options that may speed up the production process.
Holidays and times like Christmas and New Years can impact turn around times. Having said this, we have been open and in full production each year and are able to do what other companies cannot during this periods. Be sure to subscribe to our newsletter to get important notices as well as our monthly emailed specials.
Die Cutting - Die Supplied
Yes you can supply your own die or if you have ordered this exact product before and have confirmed we still have the die onsite, you can use this selection. It will save you the cost of making the die itself. Another great reason for using Printer Gateway Inc.
Die Cutting - Die Custom
Selecting this option covers the cost of die cutting and ordering a standard die for the job. We will catalogue this die and it can be available for future orders. Once you have completed your first order, in future you can select the Die Supplied option and save on the cost of your repeat orders. Please note that custom die cutting pricing is based on standard complexity die's and there is a possibility that your die could be more expensive because of the intricacies of the die lines. Over 95% percent of the custom dies requested fall within our pricing. However if you are concerned and would like to be on the safe side, please submit a custom quote request and be sure to include a copy of the die line or artwork so that our estimating department can quote your job properly.

text: Liam48 March 18, 2012 4:30 PM I watched the Sky and BBC coverage and DC picked up very interesting and important point that Sky missed that when Raikkonen got into clear air he was the second fastest guy on the track and setting fastest sectors too. Just think what he could have done if he got into Q3. I still believe he is one of the most naturally talented guys on the grid and today showed it. His race craft was as good as ever, him and Kobayashi, great racers and had respect for each other on track. I think the Lotus isn't too far off the McLaren and Red Bull. Bring on Sepang!!!

Two days ago I had to bust two caps over a freakin black bears head so my neighbor could walk around the fence to go home.
She sat her fat ass down in my drive way and would NOT move.
Two taps with my .45 over her head and she moved.
If we call the F.W.C. and threaten the big freaking furry rats they give us a 75$ fine.
Now in defense of the big black rats I moved into there hood. But the damn things are breaking into our houses, there eating our baby children there there a pain in the ass.
If you see one don't take a picture. Crush it with your truck then back over it. Kill her cubs first. Haaa Ha.

text: Any takers? The season is approaching fast! This will be my first foray into fantasy sports on this forum. The only thing I've done in the past has been fantasy basketball on nba.com a few times (2006 was the last time I did this). There we didn't have head-to-head matchups, and everyone in the same group could pick the same players if they wanted to. You had a hard salary cap, a roster of 5 and a sixth man, and you got to make two player moves each week. Player value went up and down like the stock market - when people were buying, the price went up, if people were selling that player, value went down. You got points for each stat category (1 fantasy point for each point scored, two points for assists, etc...) and the object of the game was to have the highest point total on the leaderboard. Anyway, I think the way we play here is a bit different. Is there anyone more experienced than myself who would like to commish the league or at least explain the basic format of the game? I'm willing to be the commisioner if noone else will, but as I said, I have zero experience. Darth, if you're lurking - I can pretty much guarantee you at least a few wins each month! Please post if you want to play. Based on feedback we will decide how big the league should be, and whether we do a novice/advanced league, etc. LET'S PLAY BALL!!

Jacques-Yves Cousteau: His Story Under the Sea (Unlocking the Secrets of Science)
Like space, the ocean is a place that has inspired people to describe it in fantastic stories. In the twentieth century, however, one very special man sought to uncover its secrets. He would shatter diving barriers by going deeper than anyone before him. He developed a system which made it possible for anyone not just professional divers to explore the ocean at depths only once imagined. Through filmmaking, he brought the wonders of the ocean into the living rooms of people around the world.
As a teenager, he was a rowdy youth, a juvenile delinquent even, the kind of kid parents worry about and teachers feel will never amount to anything. He proved them wrong, but not before enduring a tragic accident that nearly ended his life, and then gave him his life's work. His name is Jacques Cousteau and this is his story the story of a man who brought the ocean's mysterious depths to the surface.

Fantasy Football was much better than James Corden's show.
Fantasy Football was much better than James Corden's show.
http://www.ChrisReesAcademy.com - http://thetattooedchimp.blogspot.co.uk/
Fantasy football was a great program, I was gutted when it ended!
Fantasy Football is mint, James Corden is a cunt
http://www.facebook.com/craig.st.clair666 ME
"That was how i got my first soapy titwank!
Listening is cool and shit." BlackdogMMA
i would stop short of full on calling him a cunt. he's done some great work, there was Gavin and Stacey, that was good, then he got his own sketch show with the other one - that was good too..., then there was...
oh hang on, made a mistake there. everything he's done after G&S is shite and he's waaay less funny than he thinks he is.
'Go read a fucking book, you piece of shit.'
yeah i watched a bit of a league of there own.. after fat jokes he's got nothing, a proper footie show would be great as i'm not watching his
I was at a gig on friday night and Mathew Horne (Gavin) was there. I told my mate who didn't have a clue who he was. His response- at least it wasn't that fat fucker. It seems that no one like him (except the manager of his local takeaway).
bwahaha they must get on like a house on fire
'Go read a fucking book, you piece of shit.'
I never liked Gavin and Stacey anyway. This made me the subject of much criticism as, being Welsh, I am apparently meant to love it along with Manic Street Preachers, Stereophonics and Catatonia... none of which I like.
http://www.ChrisReesAcademy.com - http://thetattooedchimp.blogspot.co.uk/
My mate saw him in Stringfellows one afternoon and rang me up. I was trying my best to get him to punch him in his fat unfunny face but he wouldn't. Big girls blouse.
It would have been fucking mint if he had walked up with his phone pressed to his ear and said my mates got a message for you. WHACK!!!
I'm no gynecologist but I know a cunt when I see one.
i agree with bringing back fantasy football, it was class. the fantasy world cup in 98 was the best program on tele. when they came back for the euro's in 04 it was just as good.
no football programme has matched it since.
in fact i've got all their old VHS's might stick them on an reminis, just a shame you can't buy the complete series/all episodes on dvd

You can dye sand different colors and display it in decorative jars.
Put a handful or two of sand into a plastic bag with a zip-lock
top. Add drops of food coloring to achieve desired color. Securely
close the first bag and then double-bag it in case the first bag
tears. Shake the bag to distribute the color. Repeat for a few
different colors. Let the sand dry overnight, or at least for a few
hours. Choose an attractive container to hold your sand. Used jars
or old vases work well. It looks nice to layer the different colors
of sand on top of each other. You could also mix all of the colored
sands together.

Changing a tried and true way of doing business to fit its software, making unique customizations that result in a time-stamped system, or ending up with "orphaned" software that's been modified so much it won't work with any new applications: Those are some of the difficulties that Ballin wanted to avoid when it began looking for a solution to replace its legacy system.
Ballin, a leading manufacturer of better men's dress slacks sold at more than 1,000 North American department stores and specialty shops, was founded in 1946 in Montreal. Today, the company utilizes multiple warehouses and distribution centers, with about 60 percent of its manufacturing done domestically in Canada.
Ballin had been running a legacy system installed in 1997 that was originally acquired from Garpac. Several years later, the software rights were sold to CGS, which ultimately decided to discontinue the software application - with more than a million dollars spent by Ballin on its development over the past decade.
"We were happy with that Unix-based product and it did what we required of it," says Ron Cacchione, Ballin's director of information technology. "We were pretty well able to support the bulk of it ourselves. However, with respect to EDI, we had to rely on the vendor to move the application along as it evolved with our trading partners."
When CGS stopped supporting Ballin's custom system, the search for a new system began. The company looked at a number of different solutions, but found that none of the traditional ERP offerings met its needs.
"We were looking for a solution that would offer us the ability to participate in the development, and grow with it as well," says Cacchione. "We do have a small development team here, and alongside of the main ERP system, we have developed our own layered applications that interface with our system - a scanning system, a replenishment system and data warehouse system decision support - all were developed here. It was important to us to continue to do that."
Participation in development
Ballin also wanted to retain the major functionality of what it was already running.
Other products, says Cacchione, were already "established and defined." Although some modifications would be possible, the essential structure in which they operated was different from what Ballin was used to.
"The way in which we do supply and demand balancing is not necessarily replicated in other systems" it is achieved in a somewhat different way," says Cacchione. "And it was important for us to retain that, in terms of the culture within our organization. When a customer sales order comes in, how that order is going to be satisfied and how we identify that supply source, and all the rules that come into play with that, was something we did not wish to change."
Ballin had built up its own internal expertise to handle customer orders, using the parameters as defined within the system. To change that core operation would have added to the complexity of going to a new system. "We did not really want to change the way we were doing that," says Cacchione. "We didn't want to go conceptually in a different direction. It was important to us to retain the same sort of approach going forward as we had with the existing software."
Around this time, Cacchione was approached by David Roth, the primary architect of the legacy system it had been running, regarding a new solution offered by Simparel with flexibility the others lacked.
"We were intrigued by the technological approach that was being taken," says Cacchione. "When I took a closer look, I was also intrigued with the possibility of participating in the design and some of the configuration with my staff here."
Instead of being rigidly forced into whatever functionality the software offered, Ballin was able to replicate the functionality that it didn't want to change, while making whatever changes it wanted.
Implementation over a weekend
First, Ballin went over all the functionality it was looking for, including a gap analysis done module by module. "We did this by having Simparel explain what they had previously configured in their system, and us explaining what we had in ours, and got the gaps identified. Then we laid out the development effort."
The company's existing ERP functionality was replicated, including master production scheduling, cut planning and multi-level automated supply chain allocation. Ballin's own developers spent six weeks working with Simparel learning how to manage the configuration on their own, then came back to headquarters and wrote several parallel applications in their own shop.
With a project plan in place, configuration efforts started in early 2008 and implementation and training began in Ballin's ladies' wear division in the fall, with its much larger main division coming on board two months later.
"This approach allowed us to implement the solution on a smaller scale, with smaller volumes, in a more controlled way," says Cacchione. Because the ladies' wear division is much smaller, it allowed the company to keep closer tabs on things and made it easier to control the implementation. "This allowed us a 'dry run,' if you will, before doing a full blown implementation."
The approach also allowed Ballin to work out some kinks, making some minor modifications and fine-tuning technical details such as data synchronizations and cutoffs.
"We implemented over a weekend and we have never looked back. On a Friday evening we ended an accounting period on the old system, and we started using the new system immediately after," says Cacchione. "We had some minor issues, but business was not interrupted."
Ability to interface
One of the major benefits of the new system is its ability to interface with other systems being used by Ballin, now and in the future.
While traditional solutions rely on code and customizations, the Simparel solution uses "system dictionaries," which are pieces of data accessible to the company. That data can be reconfigured and tweaked without the use of code, ranging from user interfaces, business processes for how Ballin interacts with its suppliers and customers, and EDI.
With all of Ballin's scanning and warehouse operations systems developed by its own team, interface files were previously used to patch information back and forth. Now these applications interface directly in real time with the Simparel files.
"Once we got rid of all of those interface files and transfer processes, we were able to operate as one integrated system," says Cacchione. "That is a major advantage."
Much quicker system development
Cacchione says that the biggest advantage of the new solution is the speed of system development. "Whenever you are able to accelerate something as time-consuming as system development from conception to delivery, it gives you a huge competitive advantage."
Cacchione says that although Ballin took a fairly sophisticated technological approach to its legacy system, the company was still encumbered by third-generation tools and languages for its development. "The use of a newer technology speeds that up, and every effort from this point on will carry that benefit," he says.
Looking forward, Ballin plans to implement data warehousing, analytics and web-based decision support - which can all be layered and interfaced however the company wishes, as a result of its team's participation in the original configuration process.
"This system will allow us to do so much more," says Cacchione. "We have a sound, advanced technological base from which to grow over the next decade and more."

I have no idea why BMW did this since they seem to be the same bulbs other than the socket (and color of course). samillerfl mentioned he used 5706s all the way around but used a grinder on the PY bulbs to remove the offset pin. Anyway, just wanted to mention that in case you weren't aware of that and wanted to change your order.
I am interested in the ambers in the rear. I think all signal lights should be amber, but I never thought much about doing this in the rear of the X3 because I thought there was a red lens over the turn signal bulb anyway.
Post pics and/or video when you get them going.
I definitely will. I read about the pins, I thought they had to be modified all around not just some, so I was just planning on grinding them off either way. Shouldn't be too difficult and from what I heard the 5706 was brighter.
I've had a few vehicles with amber bulbs behind red lenses and they look cool, when they're off everything is red but when they light up they're still amber, it's a neat effect. I'll post photos when it's done.

Ten things. Just things…
1. It's freakishly warm for the end of November. Not that I'm complaining, mind you, but it bears notice. I hope it doesn't portend a hellish winter.
2. I'm kind of loving my new iPhone. I didn't think that the upgrade would be that big a deal, but I'm finding that I really like some of the new features.
3. I can see the light at the end of my Local U. tunnel. I'm looking forward to getting through it.
4. I really need to get my act together in terms of holiday gift plans. I have some far-flung people to whom I send gifts from Stonewall Kitchen, and I need to get that ordered. I am planning on doing a lot of cooking and baking this year for gifts, and I need to narrow down my recipe choices in the next few days.
5. I've retained the services of a friend of Auntie's for our Christmas picture this year. This woman took some lovely photos of the girls while Mr. Chili and I were in Bermuda (the resulting album was our anniversary gift from our daughters and Auntie and the Girl). I want her to come over when we've got our tree set up, so we should do that in the next two weeks or so.
6. We got an invite to a really nice private tree farm for our tree this year. We got into this place last year through our neighbor (who is a regular invitee), but our name made it onto the guest list this year. I'm looking forward to it – last year, we had a terrible time picking from among the all near-perfect trees.
7. Oh, my GOD! I'm LOVING Sons of Anarchy right now. I'm going to be SO sad when this season ends; it's been a WILD ride!
8. While watching an episode of Sons, we came across a commercial for the next season of Justified. I'm looking forward to that, too! (According to the ad, it starts up again in January)
9. I need to get my oil changed. I think, when I do, I'm going to buy a couple of oil changes and interior detailing for christmas gifts. My in-laws could use them, and they would meet my "buy local" demand.
10. I've begun re-reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo in anticipation of seeing the film. I have it in paper, but I also bought the ebook; I'm finding that I really prefer to read ebooks in bed.
Happy Tuesday!

Residents of sub-county in rural Uganda will use new deposit fund to bolster enterprise and protect fragile development gains
Tiny sums can have a big effect in Uganda, helping villagers help themselves to buy assets such as cows that can transform lives
• Donate to our appeal here
To mark the midway point of the Katine project, and ahead of mid-point reviews to be conducted by our independent evaluator and Amref, Madeleine Bunting examines progress in each of the project's five components
The Katine project has helped us identify innovative ways to provide remote communities with financial services, says Barclays Group chairman, Marcus Agius
Location of fruit factory selected by stakeholders
Concern over private company involvement
Need for irrigation schemes in the area
Katine fruit growers could benefit from a partnership between the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the NGO TechnoServe and the Coca-Cola Company that aims to increase the income of farmers in Uganda and Kenya.
Representatives from Uganda's Ministry of Finance and four government agricultural and development agencies are due to meet in Soroti to discuss proposals for a fruit processing plant in the area
Plans for a fruit processing factory in the Teso region of north-east Uganda are being frustrated because local farmers are having problems finding a private investor to support the initiative
Response: A dewy-eyed view of charity work in Katine may just end in debilitating dependency, says Alan Gibson
Uganda is on course to become one of the top 50 oil producers in the world. But will the proceeds change the lives of the country's poorest?
The Guardian's editor in chief, Alan Rusbridger, and Barclays chief executive, John Varley, donate UShs 4.2m to village savings and loans group that had funds stolen last month
Katine: It's two years since Guardian readers began funding the project in rural Uganda. Progress has been made – but setbacks threaten to undermine it
Three men have been charged in connection with a machete attack on the 63-year-old treasurer of a village savings and loans association in Katine last week
Last week we took the decision to remove from the Katine website an article about Christine Agwero and her husband John Ogalo. Here we explain our decision and speak to the family to correct some false assumptions
The way people view money tied up in a cow differently from money that comes in the form of cash could have an impact on development work, writes Ben Jones
An Amref initiative to help parishes make and sell sanitation platforms for latrines has yet to take off. Is the Amref 'partnership' concept taking too long to sink in?
Katine farmers earn extra income by making clay pots. After the pots have been created they are fired in a simple kiln and sold
In the wake of the global financial crisis, the priority for all sub-Saharan African countries must be to contain the negative impact of the crisis on economic growth and poverty – and that means access to financial services for the poorest households, argues Lauren Hendricks
Pharmacy worker Mary Amoding talks of the challenge of balancing the books in the drug shop in which she works with trying to save lives

Lol. Very nice! Would totally wear this. :^)
Re: Spring for Spring
Agree with the earlier comments. Plus, it looks like you may have used a photo for some of the items and run photoshop filters on them.
Re: Kill It!
Hahaha, this is pretty funny.
Re: POLLENATION
Although I've never been able to figure out why, and as I've obviously ignored in my name, it's actually spelled "pollination". Silly English language.
Re: Spring Cleaning
Hehehe, cute.

Somehow a bottle of water shaped like a spring doesn't convey the season of Spring at all, it just shares a similar word. So, off topic?
Re: spring has sprung?
Funny, and kind of weird, but you are only allowed 6 colors. So, its going to get rejected.
It's nice to actually see bunnies that actually look like bunnies with decent anatomy for a change. Very well done.
Personally I think the snake ruins the overall design. The snake is drawn well, just doesn't work for me. For one thing, that is a pretty big snake in proportion to the bunnies. I'm talking about the kind you hear about swallowing a small child kinda big. That kind of snake doesn't live in the meadow's with the fluffy critters. It also appears to have two tails, even though one of them is just a lump inside of it.
I have to have this shirt!! Its so happy and fun!!
New to woot- I just want to know how to buy this shirt.
