Sphinx Mountain Avalanche – 10/30/04
Weather and snowpack
Some light dustings of snow began accumulating in southwest Montana by late-September. More snowfall began in mid-October, with Moonlight Basin Ski Area reporting about 10 inches of new snow. The most significant snowfall to date arrived on the night of 10/28/04. On Friday the 29th, the Yellowstone Club Ski Area's automated weather station was showing 9 inches of new snow with 16 total inches on the ground at 9,400 feet elevation (approximately 5 miles south southwest of the accident site). Big Sky reported "up to 20 inches of new snow", but this was not measured at any particular site. Moonlight Basin reported 10 to 14 inches of new snow with strong westerly winds. Moonlight also reported a number of avalanches including a few size R3 natural slides (SS-N-R3) that were breaking out up to 2 feet deep and running most of the way down their paths. Big Sky reported one small avalanche triggered by a snow groomer.
Witnesses on Sphinx Mountain on the day of the avalanche accident reported cold temperatures, strong winds, and significant windloading. Wind speeds were estimated to be a steady 25 MPH with gusts to 35 MPH.
On October 30th, 2004 a group of three ice climbers set out to climb the north face of Sphinx Mountain, which is located approximately 8 miles south-southwest of Lone Peak in the Madison Range of southwest Montana. Two other separate groups of ice climbers would start on the trail behind them. The first group reached the saddle between Sphinx Mountain and the Helmet, which is at about 9000 ft elevation and is northwest of the Sphinx. They then walked up the ridge up the Sphinx and began traversing around to the north face. To do this traverse, climbers must cross several small steep bowls and slopes. One member of the party stopped to adjust his boots. When he came around the next corner he found the tracks of his partners going into where an avalanche had released. The tracks entered the slide about 10 feet below the crown face of the slide, which had a fracture estimated to be about 1 to 2 feet deep. The slide had gone over the cliffs immediately below, which are shown in the photo.
The third party member retraced his steps and worked his way over to where the avalanche had run over at least two cliff bands, which dropped approximately 200 or more total vertical feet. One victim was deceased, and the other was seriously injured. At some later point (perhaps one or two hours later) the second team heard yelling below them. This team consisted of two people, and one of them was an EMT. They were hiking above the saddle, but had not yet started traversing over to the north face. They quickly worked their way back down and over to the victims. They confirmed the one deceased victim and attempted to aid the second victim, who was unconscious and unresponsive. During this time the third party arrived and a person from that party was sent to the trailhead to try to get a helicopter for the injured victim. Soon afterwards, the second victim's heart stopped beating and the rescuers began CPR.
Meanwhile, the winds continued to blow strongly and there was significant windloading. The rescuers heard one small avalanche that released off the Helmet, and within five minutes they heard another larger avalanche in a similar location. Since the wind was continuing to load the slopes above them, they feared for their own safety and eventually decided that the best course of action was to retreat from the scene, which they did sometime around noon. The helicopter was eventually dispatched and arrived at the scene two to three hours later, but they could not reach the victims.
On October 31st, Madison County Search and Rescue and U.S. Forest Service personnel responded to the scene to retrieve the bodies.

2 climbers killed in avalanche near Ennis
Associated Press
ENNIS - Two mountain climbers were killed when an avalanche swept them off Sphinx Mountain near here, Madison County officials said Sunday.
The victims were identified as Nathaniel Stevens and Bryan Nelson, both 25, of Missoula.
"The slide took them down," said Sheriff's Deputy David Clark. "They weren't totally buried. They took two 30-foot falls."
Witnesses said the men fell 30 feet to a ledge and then fell another 30 feet to the bottom, Clark said.
A third climber, Justin Elliott, also of Missoula, was not caught in Saturday's avalanche because he had stopped to tighten his boot, Clark said.
The three men were intending to ice climb and were traversing the north side of the mountain, which is in the Lee Metcalf Wilderness southeast of Ennis in the Madison Range.
Clark said the avalanche occurred about 9:30 a.m. Saturday during a snow storm, and it may have been triggered by overhanging snow cornices breaking off. Clark said authorities were notified about three hours after the accident.
Four separate parties were on foot in the area intending to ice climb and one of them included an emergency medical technician, who was able to reach the victims and determined they were dead, Clark said.
Air and ground attempts to retrieve the bodies Saturday failed, Clark said, and officials used horses on Sunday to bring out the bodies.
U.S. Forest Service officials said some areas had heavy snow and strong winds on Thursday night.
"That's what created the current avalanche conditions," said avalanche scientist Karl Birkeland of the Gallatin National Forest Avalanche Center.

I had two surgeries with Dr. Marco Barusco that went verywell. My third with Dr. Marina Pizarro, though about 13 months ago was a complete disaster. I used to have a small scar on the back middle of my head, but now I have 3 scars. One is above that goes all the way around top side of my head on both sides and another below original thin scar. Hair is now growing very poorly around both areas due to lack of blood flow as it was explained to me later. I was told by Dr. Pizarro that there would be two non-visible extremely thin lines top and bottom and that my hair would fill them in above and below. This was far from the truth. They are both extremely thick and the hair is not growing well around the scars…"new technology." After my first two surgeries I could shave my head with a one guard and you could not see the line where both of my first surgeries were harvested.
Now I have to wear my hair much linger and it is loose and wavy above the lines revealing pieces of lines when not perfectly set with hair spray. To make matters worse, hair up top now looks less dense than it did before the surgery! My concerns have now multiplied with scars. I only wish I had never had the surgery with Dr. Marina Pizarro. I spent over $5,000 and my head is ruined. In addition, if my head is wet, you'll see 3 scar lines around my head. Thankfully Dr. Barusco has been doing scar revisions for me and it has helped a lot, although it'll never be what it was. I also discovered Toppik, which is helping to mask the damage but I have to avoid my head getting wet in public always.
The Only reason I switched to Pizarro for my 3rd surgery was due to finances…cost me about $3,000 less compared to Barusco at the time and Pizarro was actually recommended by a friend in the industry. Huge mistake!!! Should have waited and gone back to Barusco. You absolutely get what you pay for. I went back to Pizarro for a follow up after about 10 months after meeting withBarusco for an opinion and her desk manager spoke down to me and insulted me repeatedly once she became aware of my dissatisfaction and devastation. After belittling me anddenying my and Barusco's observations, they told me to just come back a few months later and they'd check me again. I told them that I would not come back to them after how they treated me. They then sent me a certified letter ordering that I no longer visit their office again and terminating our patient-doctor relationship.
My advice to anyone looking for a quality hair transplant is to visit Dr. Barusco and his professional team. My surgery with Pizarro not only ruined my life but to add insult to injury, their only attempt to making things right was telling me to come back again a few months later walking out of the office completely insulted as they denied all of my observations.

Former New York Jets player Dennis Byrd addressed the team on the eve of their divisional playoff matchup against the New England Patriots.
Byrd left the NFL after suffering a broken neck in a game for the Jets in 1992.
Coach Rex Ryan invited him to speak to the team on Saturday night, and the Jets told ESPN that Byrd would be the team's guest at Sunday's game.
WR Braylon Edwards said on Twitter that he was moved by Byrd's speech.
Said Edwards:
"I just heard the most inspirational message of my life from former Jet Dennis Byrd ... As God is my witness, I have never been more ready to perform in my life. Dennis Byrd, I respect, salute and honor you."
The Jets present the Dennis Byrd Award each year that honors a player his peers deem the most inspirational.
Inviting Byrd to the game is a sign of how big the Jets consider Sunday's matchup. Ryan said the matchup against the Patriots is the second-biggest game in franchise history, behind only the team's win in Super Bowl III.

Jeff Mullins' Dubai World Cup (UAE-I) hope Choctaw Nation and stable companion My Cousin Matt, whose target is the Golden Shaheen (UAE-I), turned in their final serious pieces of work Monday at Nad Al Sheba in preparation for Saturday's big race card. Choctaw Nation covered six furlongs in 1:13.80 to the delight of the trainer. "Choctaw Nation actually looks a little better than he did (in California). I was surprised. He's got three-eighths of a mile to get going here," said Mullins, clearly hopeful that the six-furlong straight of the track will play to his horse's strengths. Choctaw Nation's win in the San Diego Handicap (gr. II) last August was at the expense of 2004 Dubai World Cup winner Pleasantly Perfect and he was a good fourth in the San Carlos Handicap (gr. II) in his prep race for Saturday. My Cousin Matt was clocked in :46.40 for the last four furlongs of his six-furlong dash. Meanwhile, Paulo Lobo was clearly delighted with sprint favorite Pico Central, who jogged two circuits of the track, having breezed five furlongs in 1:01.60 two days ago when covering the last half-mile in :48.60.
"Everything is perfect," Lobo said on Monday morning. Doug O'Neill's assistant, Leandro Mora, is equally pleased with Whilly's preparation for the Dubai Duty Free: "He's doing very, very good," said MoraRoses In May, the Dale Romans-trained likely favorite in the World Cup, looked in great order when galloped on the track, under floodlights Monday evening. He was also familiarized with the floodlit parade ring and took everything in stride, looking relaxed and alert.He stretched out well down the straight, as did Wesley Ward's Bear Fan who did a good piece of fast work separately in his preparation for the six-furlong Golden Shaheen.

Utah Attorney General Sean Reyes has filed a one-paragraph letter concurring with his counterpart in Arizona — the marshals in Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Ariz., have to go.
Reyes' letter was filed with a federal lawsuit in Phoenix aimed at ending discrimination in the two towns. It's long been alleged the marshals are just arms of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
For years, Utah has shown an aversion to booting the entire police force in the two towns, mostly for fear of violating due process rights. Instead, Utah's police regulators have decertified marshals one at a time as evidence has accumulated.

Hey Pax, CONGRATS! I will be ordering a couple of copies for myself and my dad.
I know how you feel, some folks don't like a lot of haraunge made of the things they do. I recently had an accomplishment that caused much of the same attention, up to and including my name on a lighted sign on the busiest highway in my hometown (talk about embarassing), and I did not really know quite how to process it. Some people have the gift for self promotion, I guess I just am not one of them. lol. Rest assured that your not alone.
In your case however, it is a bit of a necessity since you want to sell copies. I suggest that you send an email to Jim over at survivalblog.com and see if he will post a note (and link to where it can be ordered) about your book on his website. He most likely will do it, as he does so quite often for books relating to self defense, survival, firearms etc. He's not a wacko survivalist nutjob, really a moderately mainstream type guy who believes in being well prepared IMO, so I don't think there is anything to worry about as far as "association with survivalblog" or otherwise I would not have brought it up. I mean the guy is legit enough to be interviewed by and quoted in the NY times if that tells you anything.
Anyway, he has had 2 Amazon top ten best sellers over the past year and signed a book deal for another novel, mostly due to promotion to readers through his website. From all accounts I have of his writings and interviews on radio, he is a very humble and sincere guy. His readership is huge and they will buy books if he suggests them.(by the thousands) That's how he got to be in the top ten twice. I truly think your book is one that he would be glad to post a link to and then your publisher may have to reprint more copies. Wouldn't that be nice?
Congrats again. Look forward to reading the book.
When you've got 'em by the balls, their hearts & minds will follow. Semper Fi.

Thanks for a good read.
Some things should be kept private until you feel otherwise. Why would your friends think otherwise?
Congratulations on getting published. For those who have never tried, they'll never know how difficult it is. It's a tough market, especially for fiction (my area).

text: CARLSBAD, Calif., Oct. 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- It's celebration time at Buzztime®, as the news about BEOND™ keeps getting better, 700 percent better and a new milestone for Buzztime: 4 million player registrations.When Buzztime, the bar and restaurant entertainment leader who launched the industry 29 years ago, announced results of a 4-month trial with 33 locations of a large national chain in which its new tablets experienced a 700 percent increase in customers registering as Buzztime players, reaching a new million mark quickly was only a matter of time. For Buzztime, that time is now. The bar trivia pioneer announced today that it has now reached 4 million player registrations, a number boosted by BEOND. "BEOND is the next generation of Buzztime and its results have been so significant that the 4 million mark in player registrations arrived more quickly than anyone except Buzztime could envision," said Barry Chandler, chief marketing officer at Buzztime. "We knew BEOND was that good and we're excited to share the news that our new platform is a game-changer in an industry that always needs one." With BEOND, the industry's first social, mobile, Tablet Playmaker-based entertainment platform, Buzztime has created a turnkey solution for bar and restaurant owners to attract more customers, engage them more, have them spend more money and come back more often. With the addition of a 700% increase in BEOND player registrations, Buzztime now registers more than 150,000 new players a month. BEOND has also seen a 500 percent increase in gameplay, which is staggering when you consider that Buzztime games are already played more than 52 million times a year by players in more than 3200 bar and restaurant locations. Arbitron studies show that Buzztime players already spend 27 minutes longer and spend $5 more on average than non-players in the bars and restaurants where they play. "We've been putting play to work for nearly three decades and with our BEOND results, we're doing that at unprecedented rates," said Chandler. "That's phenomenal news for bars and restaurant owners who want to attract more guests, have them come back more frequently, stay longer and spend more money. With BEOND, they'll get all of that, and more, 700 percent faster."

- Aggression (the good, the bad & the ugly) (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/aggression-good-bad-ugly/)
- - Growled at my mom while she was hugging her. (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/aggression-good-bad-ugly/397169-growled-my-mom-while-she-hugging-her.html)
Growled at my mom while she was hugging her.
So I wasn't there. But when my mom was going to put Zelda back in her crate in my room after letting her out for potty break and hang out, she said she hugged Zelda while Zelda was sitting on my bed, and she stood over her, put her arms around Zelda and she said she thought she growled at her.
Unsure what to think about this or the action i should take.
Zelda has never growled at any family member before, but there is a first for everything.
Should I treat her with tougher NILIF as if she did for sure growl at my mom, and involve my family in it more so? To stop this behavior before it gets worse and or continues.
Or should i act as if it didn't happen and only do something when i am sure she actually growled?
Also how do i tell my 13 year old sister in better way, that Zelda is not a teddy bear, and she needs to be treated more like a dog, especially at being a year old and being a rowdy girl as a teenager! I've told this to her. I dont want to say that she could act aggressive (i dont think it will happen, but i think they test limits at this stage so you never know and if my mom is right, who says my little sister isn't next), because i dont want my sister having bad energy towards Zelda. I'm just worried one of these days Zelda is going to tell her "ENOUGH" in a mean way, i mean even a growl from Zelda would ruin her relationship (my little sister is very sensitive) I tell her dogs are NOT teddy bears! I don't think she gets it.. Suggestions?
*I'm trying not to get worked up over this as she may or may not have.. but i do NOT want Zelda getting naughty with my family. And if there is a possibility i want to nip it in the bud before it escalates.
Thanks guys!
she was on the bed? well that could be a guarding my bed issue.
OR, I know she has bad hips, it could have been a "don't touch me I'm in pain issue".
Or some dogs are not comfortable being 'hugged'..
I would explain to your sister , that since zelda has bad hips, she is sometimes in pain, tho may not show it..so you have to be careful how you physically treat her.
Ya, i guess that is what my mom said..
Very good point Diane, it very well could have involved her hippies.
She usually takes some hugging and "cuddling" but she is not a cuddly dog, she will walk away usually if you do this, unless she is tired and even then.
Ok sounds good i will try and see if that resonates with her :)
Hugging or standing over some dogs is seen as an aggressive action. Someone that has a close relationship to the dog might get a pass, but someone less familiar will get a growl or worse.
How old is your dog now?
179 Attachment(s)
Baliff, the dog is a year old.
The growl was the dog saying she doesn't want to be hugged. It was a warning. And I was a good thing that the dog didn't go directly to a bite.
I totally get that too, but she has never done anything like that or near it.
She is a bit over a year old.
179 Attachment(s)
She is maturing.
She probably never liked it but is getting older and more assertive. She has a little bit of "don't eff with me."
If you want to do something about it make her associate hugging with good things. Give her a hug mark it with a yes like you would obedience or with a clicker if you insist on the extra equipment and then slip her some treats. Rinse and repeat. She will learn to love hugs.
It's a good exercise to do with new puppies. Sorta rush at them with arms held out excitedly saying their name or puuuuuuuppy! Mark it then give food immediately. They learn to deal with people approaching them like an idiot.
Ya know, I really don't like this. I have had little kids come up behind my dog in a store while I was paying and hug the dog. I have my nieces that do not live with me hug my dogs and stare into their eyes -- I know that could be a challenge. And at the vet, sometimes a vet tech needs to wrap their arm around the dog's head and neck area so the vet or another tech can take blood or deal with something less than fun.
If I had a one year old dog growling at a family member, then that dog would be OFF the bed and going through some major boot camp. I probably would not feed the dog anymore, and food would come from the person that was growled at, AFTER that person told the dog to sit, and stay.
Young dogs should not be asserting themselves against family members, adult or children, or the household and all its members human and canine will need to learn some Behavior Modification.
If your dog is on the bed growling at your mother, then whatever you are doing in the area of leadership and training is not working, and you need to get this in hand now, if you don't want a very sad outcome.

I'm kinda new to this forum and to subaru's in general. I tried to do a forum search but i couldn't find an answer to this so i figured I would ask.
Is there a performance difference between 17" and 18" wheels? Like a difference in handling or anything? or do they feel similar in most aspects.
Thanks in advance!

I definitely recommend taking Jon up on his offer. I haven't bought from him personally but after my last experience with Santa Barbara BMW I doubt I will ever buy a car from any other place. They got me the exact car I wanted at the best price around (this was after all the local dealers gave me the same BS you're getting now). We just took Amtrak up to SB and they picked us up at the station and took us to the dealer where our car was waiting with a big bow on it. The had just changed ownership that day and we were the first ones to pick up a car from them so we got to do the whole "picture with the new owners" and signing a dollar bill for them.
So amazingly cool.

As a busy mom to two kids, I find it challenging to keep up with my family and close friend's birthdays, let alone the birthdays of all the other people I encounter on a daily basis. School friends, preschool mom friends, work friends, casual acquaintances…most of those would go unnoticed if it weren't for Facebook.
That's where I get a little pop up message reminder on the person's actual birthday, even though it's already too late to do anything about sending a birthday card. Call me old fashioned, but a hastily written note on someone's "wall" just doesn't have the same feel as a real card delivered with the mail.
Today, however, I got a notification about one of my Facebook friend's birthday that wasn't too late to act on. It came from my Tiny Prints calendar. I don't know the person in real life, but Tiny Prints allowed me to import my Facebook contacts into my Tiny Prints calendar, meaning that I can now send cards to those I chose to send them to. I'm sure they won't mind having one less virtual message and one more pretty one to display on their fridge.

CANADA STOCKS-TSX steady as bank strength offset by Teck's dive
* TSX off down 5.95 points, or 0.04 percent, at 14,902.44
* Eight of the index's 10 main sectors fall
* Teck down 10.6 percent on merger-talks denial

TORONTO, March 31 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index was little changed on Tuesday as strength in its financial sector was offset by a selloff of miner Teck Resources Ltd after it denied it was in merger talks.
Teck retreated 10.6 percent to C$17.38. The stock had surged on Monday after Bloomberg News reported that Teck and Chile's Antofagasta Plc were in early-stage merger discussions. Both companies subsequently denied the report.
The index's materials sector, home to mining shares, was off 1.6 percent, pressured in part by weak commodity prices. Gold was headed for its third quarter of price drops, while nickel prices extended recent hefty losses, hitting the lowest price in nearly six years on record supply and weak demand.
"Commodity prices have been bouncing around," said Elvis Picardo, strategist and vice president of research at Global Securities in Vancouver. "This period of calm in which we were for many months is well and truly over, and investors should brace for more volatility going forward."
The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index closed down 5.95 points, or 0.04 percent, at 14,902.44. Eight of the 10 main sectors on the index were in the red. Continued...

Rescuers find body of Japan train crash driver
Page Tools
Workers pulled the uniformed body of the driver from the wreckage of Japan's rail disaster yesterday as the death toll rose to 106, police said.
The actions of 23-year-old Ryujiro Takami are at the centre of the investigation into Monday's crash in the city of Amagasaki, about 410 kilometres west of Tokyo.
The crash is widely believed to have been caused by excessive speed. Takami may have been racing because he was 90 seconds behind schedule.
Rescue teams have called off the search for further victims and survivors. More than 450 people were injured.
"The emergency rescue team has disbanded after we confirmed that there is no visible sign of survivors,'' said a fire department spokesman.
Another fire department official said a final check was made and the mangled steel of the commuter train's front carriage handed over to police after the four-day, round-the-clock rescue operation.
"The search for victims is finished. Police are now doing an investigation and our rescue operation is suspended unless the police need our help,'' the official said.
The debris still contains pieces of bodies, which could be verified for the final death toll.
Rescuers believed a teenager extracted from the wreckage on Tuesday morning was the last one alive. They pulled out eight bodies yesterday, fire department officials said.
The Government yesterday said it was considering a new train driver certification system in the wake of the disaster.
"I wonder if we should be leaving driver qualification to train operators," Transportation Minister Kazuo Kitagawa told reporters yesterday. "Perhaps the Government needs to be more actively involved in driver qualification and training."
Aircraft pilots and ship captains must pass state exams to operate commercial flights and vessels, but there is no state exam to certify train drivers, said Transport Ministry official Yoshihito Maesato.
Authorities probing the accident have searched the offices of the train's operator, West Japan Railway Co, over allegations of professional negligence. Investigators were also examining the train's "black box", a computer chip that stores information about the train's speed.
Makoto Kono of Hyogo Prefectural Police said that a body pulled from the first car of the wreck had been identified as that of Takami. He was clothed in his uniform.
Takami got his train operator's licence in May 2004. One month later, he overran a station and was issued a warning for his mistake, railway officials and police said.
Media reports said officials believe the driver was going faster than 100kmh in Monday's crash, far above the speed limit on that stretch of track.
JR West union officials yesterday met company executives to demand improved safety measures such as the installation of more advanced automatic braking systems along tracks to halt trains exceeding the speed limit.
Media reports have said the tracks where the accident occurred were equipped with an older automatic braking system lacking the ability of newer models to stop trains travelling at high speeds.
Monday's accident was the worst rail disaster in Japan in nearly 42 years.
A three-train crash in November 1963 killed 161 people in Tsurumi, outside Tokyo.

Course Content
The organisation of contemporary economic activities and practices is profoundly affected by the increased use of e-business to support, enact and create new economic opportunities. Sufficient evidence has accumulated over the years for authoritative explanations to be given concerning the e-business phenomenon and its associated challenges.
The course discusses the main managerial and strategic aspects of online business. It discusses the different e-business practices and challenges in Business-to-Consumer (B2C) and Business-to-Business (B2B); the effects of information and communications technologies on intermediation, value chain redesign and public and private procurement strategies. Economic theories, including transaction costs and principal agent, are used to discuss the impact of e-business on market configuration and network relationships. Strategies for e-business innovation including web 2.0 are also discussed.
This is a management information systems course, and not a technical course, and is mainly directed at undergraduate students. It focuses on the effective application of this powerful and pervasive technology in business. Internet-based systems have dramatically changed the way businesses operate and compete in the global marketplace and it is important for future executives and policy-makers to understand the implications of these changes. Students will gain a good understanding of how successful companies are taking advantage of e-business, as well as an understanding of the main challenges and risks associated with e-business models and strategies.
The course covers a broad spectrum of today's management opportunities and risks in online business, including:
Chaffey, D., e-Business and e-Commerce Management, (Fifth Edition) Harlow, England: Pearson Education, (2011)
The course will also make extensive use of case studies and practical exercises.

If coyote season is open year-round on a WMA, does that mean that hog hunting is open year-round?
Yes, provided that during the firearms deer seasons (muzzleloader, modern gun and special antlerless seasons) you must possess a filled or unfilled deer license for that appropriate season, and you must comply with other regulations that apply to that season (blaze orange requirements, for example).
...but I just wanted to double-check. I guess the Ouachitas are a no-go though. Is my assumption correct? I spoke with a biologist over at Canton WMA and I was under the impression that people were out there actively shooting hogs.
Also, I know with geese there are landowners just begging guys to shoot them off their wheat field, is there a similar situation with feral pigs?

Any way to make help browser remember the last position?
What bugs me, no, drives me mad, is the fact that, every time I press
F1 key to invoke the help or 'documentation center,' it goes straight
to the center of the screen instead of to the right like it did v4 and
This started in v 6 except I didn't have much need for using v6. Now
that I have a need v7, I absolutely hate the fact that help browser

Is there a way to make it remember the last position?

Plenty of technology providers have roots in retail and have been part of the National Retail Federation's Big Show for decades. NCR was once National Cash Register, founded in 1894, and IBM originated as the Tabulating Machine Company in 1896. Today, ERP, CRM, supply chain and distribution and logistics systems are all heavily influenced by the needs of retailers. And the latest consumer technologies, particularly smart phones, are reshaping customer expectations and buying habits. Retailers are responding with their own new technologies, a cycle that will no doubt continue over the next 100 years.

A mountainous and diverse country, Peru lies on the central west coast of South America and is home to 27m people. Famous for the wildlife-rich Amazon Basin and ancient Inca ruins, including the 'lost city' of Machu Picchu which is perched high in the Andes above the impressive former Incan capital of Cuzco.
Other attractions include Lake Titicaca on the Bolivian border, the mysterious Nazca Lines carved into miles of rock, the bustling modern capital Lima, Spanish colonial relics, and backpacking and trekking in the Huaraz.
Industrial and urban pollution is the greatest environmental concern; other concerns are desertification and deforestation, and air pollution in Lima. Guerilla and drug-related activities make some areas unsafe for travel; check with your embassy.
News and current affairs
Peru's online publications from the world news guide.
Spanish, Quechua. English is spoken in tourist areas but knowledge of Spanish is very useful.
The climate varies from tropical in the Amazon Basin in the east, to dry desert in the west; it is temperate to frigid in the Andes. The south coast is predominantly dry with average temperatures of 26C (79F) in summer, 16C (60F) in winter, but it can be foggy along the north coast.
Vaccination against yellow fever, typhoid, hepatitis A, hepatitis B and rabies is recommended. Tuberculosis is a risk, as are malaria and dengue fever; consider taking anti-malarial medication and protect against mosquito bites. Altitude sickness is common so take things easy until you are adjusted.
Peruvian food varies from region to region. The highlands are the place to try Incan speciality roast guinea-pig, while the coast has wonderful seafood. Cebiche (raw fish in lemon juice), anticuchos (spiced grilled beef heart), aji de gallina (shredded chicken in a spiced milk sauce) and rocoto relleno (meat-stuffed pepper) are typical dishes. Vegetarians could try ocopa (boiled potatoes with cheese and nuts) or arroz tapado - usually with, but possible without steak - a tasty mix of onions, garlic, tomatoes, raisins, eggs, olives and rice. Indian restaurants in the larger cities serve vegetarian and vegan food. Pisco sour, a cocktail made with grape brandy, lemon juice, egg whites and sugar, is worth trying.
Feb-March Carnaval. June 24 Inti Raymi; Inca festival with dances and parades. November 5 Puno Day, Puno; spectacular dances and costumes.
What to buy
Rugs, weaving, clothing made from alpaca or llama, ceramics, painted masks.
Embassies and visas
UK: Peruvian Embassy 52 Sloane St, London (020 7838 9223).

Visa requirements: UK, EU and US citizens do not need a visa for tourist stays of up to 90 days.
£1 buys approx. 5.2 Peruvian nuevo sol (PEN).
Getting there
International flights land at Lima's Jorge Chavez airport. British Airways, Varig, Iberia and Aerolineas Argentina are some of the airlines which fly to Peru from the UK. Land crossings are possible to/from Bolivia, Chile and Equador, and by river from Brazil and Colombia.

I've never been in combat, nor raped, so where does my PTSD come from?
I invite all comments, including negative ones.
1973 – enlisted as navy aircrew
1974 – mugged, pistol whipped, stomped unconscious
1975 – waterboarded four times during POW training
1976 – shot at by North Korean missile, inflight
1977 – attempted robbery at knifepoint
1978 – saved best friend from falling out of aircraft, inflight
1985 – begin nightmares of POW camp with facial torture, also violent thoughts all day, all night. So I stay drunk off duty. Drink myself to sleep routinely.
1995 – retire from military, get married and quit drinking.
1996 – begin therapy for adjustment disorder: zoloft
2005 – after 40 failed interviews, I get a job: fired after 8 months
2009 – after 10 more failed interviews, I get a job: fired after 24 months
2011 – I finally realize that if I can't get or hold a job, I must be disabled.
2012 – after a year with a civilian psychiatrist, I'm diagnosed with severe depression and PTSD
My question: where's the PTSD come from? Waterboarding? Combination of assaults?

By Richard Clarke
Lukasz Fabianski is primed to make his Premiership debut at Derby on Monday.
Arsène Wenger has all three goalkeepers fit and available but he may choose to hand out some valuable experience to the 23-year-old Polish international.
Until now, the summer signing from Legia Warsaw has been restricted to Carling Cup appearances. He excelled early on in the competition but let in five goals as Arsenal crashed out to Tottenham in the Semi-Final second leg at White Hart Lane. If Fabianski does not debut at Derby it seems he will get a chance at some point in the final three games of the campaign.
"I've not made a decision yet about who will play but I will have a look at Fabianski [before] the end of the season," said Wenger at Friday's press conference. "It could be Monday, I don't know yet.
"For me he's class. He understands football, reads the game well and is quick. He is technically good with good co-ordination and has a good connection with the team."
In fact Wenger's faith in Fabianski is so solid that he does not intend to bring in another stopper if Jens Lehmann leaves in the summer. The German is out of contract in June.
"At the moment I say no [to another keeper]," he said. "[It depends] how well Fabianski does if I play him. But, on that front, I'm not especially worried."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

From Joyce
Time management seems to be the greatest challenge for me in high school. I
have to balance my academics, activities, social life, and REST. I often get into quarrels with my family members just because I didn't plan my time well. For instance, I may yell at them for disturbing me when I'm working and I may blame them when I miss deadlines, even though it's actually my fault for cramming everything in the last minute. But there's one thing that I always make time for: horseback riding. It's a way for me to relax, to reflect on what I'm doing. Reserving a few hours every week for the sport makes me realize that there's always time for something important; it just depends on how great my desire is to do it. I think the best trick to deal with time management is the classic "break it into bits." It's really important for you to learn how to break a big, overwhelming project into small, manageable tasks. Then you can work progressively and have a sense of achievement whenever you're done with a small part. Another trick is to devise a timetable for yourself. It doesn't have to be one that you follow faithfully. It's just there to serve as a guide. You can compare your actual schedule with the planned one to see how well you actually use your time. A final tip is to always set deadlines for yourself.
From Jordan
As I have gotten older, the pressures of school and extra-curricular activities have become increasingly harder to bear and more stressful. Now that I'm in high school, there's even more work than before, and time management has become extremely important. I think the best advice I can give is that you should always leave time to relax and have fun. Teachers, parents, and peers can put a lot of pressure on kids to do more and do well in school. My parents have definitely put high expectations on me, and sometimes they are very hard to live up to. I think the best way to deal with all that is to make sure you have time for everything you need to do, while leaving time to enjoy yourself. If you get lazy sometimes, you'll probably pay for it through bad grades but at the same time, if you overwork yourself, you get burned out. Finding the right balance between relaxation and work will lead to success in all things you do.
From Tiffany
I often feel overextended when it comes to time management. I'm either doing something for school, for my family, or trying to squeeze something in for myself. Not managing your time can lead to negative results. When I don't study for a test like I should, there's a chance I'll do poorly on my test and receive a low grade. It's nobody else's fault but my own because had I planned my time better, I could have accomplished more. So I simply take my defeat as a lesson to learn from, and next time I'll study harder and study longer. The one thing that I DO always fit into my schedule is time for myself and my friends. If I become bombarded with homework, I take at least an hour to relax, dance, talk to my friends, or listen to music. If you don't take time for yourself, the only thing you're going to do is burn out and not be able to accomplish anything. One time trick that I've learned is to purchase a planner. This way, if I have a class project due, I can write it down so I know when it's due and when I need to start working on it. If I have plans to hang out with friends, I look on my planner to see if I have enough time to hang out with them and complete my schoolwork. At least once a day I'll check my planner for homework, projects, appointments, or gathering dates. When I can see what I need to accomplish on paper, it's easier to decide how much time I can devote to each task. I may not get the task completed, but at least I know I tried to and put enough effort into it.
From Mikey
I feel as though it's almost impossible to manage my time well. However, I've noticed over the years that having afterschool sports has helped greatly. It may sound strange, but by actually leaving less time for me to do my work, it forces me to get all of my work done. Also, sports calm me down so I can concentrate better. I find that if I want to do work, I have to tell myself that I HAVE to do it by a certain time. The hardest part is getting myself to start it, but once I do I usually can finish it.
For more advice, read our IML Time Tips, starting with some ideas for squeezing in Chores and Duties.

It is Wednesday and another riot in the Ukraine. A majority of people in the Ukraine seek to live in Europe -not outside in the realm of Putin and his thugs who have highjacked the process of democracy. The decision of President Viktor Yanukovych to reject an opportunity to have his nation become part of the European Union and turn eastward to Putinland has infuriated hundreds of thousands who now roam the streets of Kiev demanding resignation of the government and a shift from east to west for their future lives. About 186 of the 226 votes required to topple the government of President Yanukovych and his buddies has now been attained. Prime Minister Azarov is apologizing for police behavior and promising "I would like to apologize on behalf of our government.
Unfortunately, Yanukovych is simply Putin turned inside out, a petty thug who has imprisoned his political opponent on ridiculous charges that she voted for the wrong law. After the debacle of rioting in the streets, are we to assume that Viktor will spend a few years in jail for supporting the wrong decision?

A Name in Blood
written by Matt Rees
Corvus | ISBN 9781848879188
Paperback – 352 pages
Member's price: $27.00
Usually ships within 2–11 business days.
Artist, lover, swordsman, gambler: a wild life which ended mysteriously. But was Caravaggio murdered? Award-winning crime writer Matt Rees may have the answer...Italy, 1605: For the ruling Borgia family, Rome is a place of grand palazzos and frescoed cathedrals. For the lowly artist Caravaggio, it is a place of rough bars, knife fights, and grubby whores. Until he is commissioned to paint the Pope...Soon, Caravaggio has gained entry into the Borgia family's inner circle, and becomes the most celebrated artist in Rome. But when he falls for Lena, a low-born fruit-seller, and paints her into his Madonna series as a simple peasant woman, Italian society is outraged. Discredited as an artist, but unwilling to retract his vision of the woman he loves, Caravaggio is forced into a duel - and murders a nobleman. Even his powerful patrons cannot protect him from a death sentence. So Caravaggio flees to Malta, where, before he can be pardoned, he must undergo the rigorous training of the Knights of Malta. His paintings continue to speak of his love for Lena. But before he can return to her, as a Knight and a noble, Caravaggio, the most famous artist in Italy - simply disappears...It is suitable for readers of Jed Rubenfeld, Iain Pears, and Tracy Chevalier.
Artist: Caravaggio

Does this module support an extra layer (~ 2mm) of transparent glass or acrylic?
I'd like to make a case for it without the hole, so it would be used behind the case wall.
Thank you

No the glued panel isnt good for 5 days, sorry. Once the glue is down and dry its pretty much over. Trim and top is meant to be fairly heat resistant. heating will help to pull it off but it is not repositionable.
Too much glue will stiffen you up too. Are you making a spray pattern that is fairly loose (Large fan) in opposite directions on opposite panels? this will minimize the amount of air you need. I have a 5 gallon I use cause its mobile. A touch up gun is too small in my experiance. Get a quart gun and adjust the paint screw until it shoots it out like snot at about 40 psi. Then raise the air up until you get a fan about 3 to 4 inches. You want the glue to go on wet bet not soak in or thru. Put it on in layers like a cross. On the opposing panel rotate the cross patter 45 degrees. It will give you the best bond with the least amount of glue.
the glue if it is trim and top is contact cement. 2 sided and you should be gluing both sides. if you take a hair dryer and heat the glue side it heats out the solvents and softens the leather from the back side. And makes the stuff stick like a mother.

• Intriguing behaviour by Boris Johnson vis-a-vis his choice of dinner guest the night before he put us all out of our collective misery and announced he would return as an MP. He chose not to break bread with any of the so called kitchen cabinet already plotting to power him into No 10. Instead, he discussed the state of the world and the way of things with broadcaster Nick Ferrari, who hosts his LBC radio show Ask Boris. He later described the encounter to one journalist as "a bit of a night". What to make of this? Could Boris already be seeking a placeman to run in his stead as London mayor in 2016? Far from fanciful, for none of the other options in his party stir the blood. And remember, Ferrari only withdrew a candidacy in 2008 when Johnson threw his bicycle helmet into the ring.
• The shockwaves caused by Boris's declaration that he will head for parliament, while hanging on as London mayor, continue to reverberate. There is talk of seats he might select and ministerial posts he might choose. One issue Johnson was keen to clear up was the matter of his remuneration. He will not benefit from two salaries, he said. He will continue to draw his mayoral salary of £143,000, eschewing the basic £67,000 that would be his due from parliament. All very laudable. But not quite the disinterested gesture it might seem. If he opted to take the parliamentary salary, the rules dictate that his City Hall salary would have been cut by two-thirds. So with the careful calibration of this act of public spiritedness, he has held on to £28,000. He once described a £250,000 newspaper column contract as chicken feed. Still, every little helps.
• What would he do if called upon to serve under David Cameron? The Telegraph, for whom he writes that weekly column, says he would be the business secretary, but that must be the paper's attempt to leaven all the hard news with comedy. He may be doggedly supportive of beleaguered bankers, but last year Transport for London revealed it had been stuck with a bill of £11.1m for the high-profile Boris bike hire scheme. Thus the annual operational cost to the taxpayer was £1,388 a bike. And what to say about his other eye-catching venture – the cable car over the Thames in east London, run in cahoots with Emirates airline. Figures last year suggested that the line, hailed as a public transport boon, was being used by just four regular passengers. Business is hardly his forte.
• Still, we're glad he is returning to the fray. Jubilant; beside ourselves. And the Sun is even happier than we are. "If Mr Cameron's delight at Boris's impending return is not 100% sincere, the Sun's is," the paper said. What might be the genesis for its enthusiasm? Could it be this series of notations in the mayor's register of interests: 9 June 2102, cars from New York Hotel to private residence and lunch, Rupert Murdoch; 24 September 2012, lunch Guto Harri (spinner to Rupert Murdoch); 22 January 2013, dinner Rupert Murdoch; 4 March 2013, dinner Rupert Murdoch; 6 December 2013, dinner Rupert Murdoch. We don't know; you decide.
• Finally, as the actor James Corden prepares to launch his Britishness on to the lucrative US television chat circuit as a possible host of CBS's The Late Late Show, news of another Brit who trod that path: broadcaster, columnist and former editor Piers Morgan. His star rose and then sharply fell as his CNN chatshow soared, sank and was then axed. But if he can't feel much love in the US, he can always turn to Jamaica, where his tweets have made him something of a celebrity. According to the newspaper the Voice, Morgan excited attention with his tweeted reaction to Usain Bolt's absurd velocity during the 4x100m relay at the Commonwealth Games. "Boom!" tweeted Morgan, utilising a local exclamation. "Why 'boom'?" asked an aggrieved Jamaican via social media. "You're not Jamaican." Indeed he is not, but Morgan knew enough to reply referencing an old Jamaican proverb: "Mi cum ya fi drink milk, mi no cum yah fi count cow" – or mind your own business. He was retweeted more than 3,000 times, and favourited by 1,700. Maybe Jamaica will offer him a chatshow. Things are looking up. Big tings a gwaan, as they say.

About Me
Hi! I am loving being in front of the camera! I don't mind getting dirty, sweaty, hiking to locations, or pretty much anything to get the perfect shot. I have a fresh look, I'm a happy, energetic girl, I won't waste your time, and I'm very easy to work with. I will do TFCD if you have something to offer my portfolio. I will travel if it's worth the result. Thanks a bunch, and enjoy your romp around my pics!
I am really wanting to do something eye-catching, and interesting to look at! If you have an idea, let me know. That being said, I am approached often lately by photogs who want to shoot 'Maxim' or swimsuit shots. No offense, but those bore me to death. That's not what I'm looking for. I also am not really interested in doing shoots that yield photos that a friend could snap if I were to be sitting in a field, or on an old chair... so unless you have something interesting in mind... there are a lot of people on this site If you want to do an interesting shoot, then let's talk.
To save us both time, I don't do nudes.

Citation: Mazzola, M., Gu, Y.H., Funnell, D., Cohen, M.F., Raaijmakers, J.M. 2004. Significance of host genotype in exploitation of resident disease suppressive soil microbial communities. Phytopathology. 94:S125. Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Impact of plant genotype on plant microbe interactions has been widely examined in the realm of plant pathogenic organisms. Consideration of host specificity in interactions between plants and resident non-symbiotic plant-beneficial soil microorganisms has received decidedly less attention. The capacity of wheat to modify composition of the fluorescent pseudomonad population resident to orchard soils was found to vary in a cultivar-specific manner, and was associated with development of soil suppressiveness toward Rhizoctonia solani AG-5 and AG-8, pathogens of apple and wheat, respectively. Wheat genotypes also varied in the capacity to select, both qualitatively and quantitatively, for resident populations of 2,4-DAPG-producing fluorescent Pseudomonas spp., which have a pivotal role in the development of take-all decline. Apple rootstocks varied in the ability to support antagonistic pseudomonad genotypes enhanced through wheat cultivation and populations of resident Streptomyces spp. promoted by canola seed meal amendment. These findings implicate the importance of host genotype in optimizing use of resident soil microorganisms for disease suppression.

text: We went to BWI in June, 2012- we had to change rooms THREE times! Because of mildew smells. I have a very sensitive nose and get headaches immediately with anything like that as I am allergic. They were less then helpful, did not offer bell services to help us, no one ever checked in with us etc..., it was very upsetting and disappointing as we were so looking forward to our first visit to a deluxe resort. I asked to speak to a manager and they did give us some dining credits and apologized, but it just left a bad taste in our mouth. In April we are staying at BC and are so nervous. We just want to be able to get to the room and be on vacation. We know things happen, but after the last time we are so gun shy to spend the money on another deluxe resort, but the kids want to go to that pool and we love the area. So, any tips? this time we are using an agent to book too- suggestions, ideas? thanks!

We're the first unit in Maine to receive this honor so I'm very proud to be part of this organization. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else," said SGT Chase Hinkley. While the award was pinned on the units' commanders during the ceremony, they say it really recognizes everyone in the unit who deployed to Afghanistan in 2010."It was an amazing deployment. We did a lot of interesting things. But just having that inside look, knowing the people that were involved, knowing what thy had to go through and recognizing just the prestige of the award. I'm very honored to be here and be pinned with it," said CPT Todd Abbott. "It speaks directly to the manor in which they conducted themselves and their missions overseas which is to say it was with a high degree of valor, risk, and danger and they did exceptionally well," said LTCOL Jason Pelletier. "I'm definitely honored. I'm just happy that our company as a whole has performed so well and it's a great feeling for us to experience recognition on such a great level from so many high ranking individuals," said SGT Joseph Burke. "We worked very hard in 2009 we had a lot of build up training to Afghanistan and once we got there we performed our mission very well and it's nice I be recognized."Despite the recognition, the batillion commander said it's back to business for the unit. they have an upcoming military training opportunity they need to be ready for. "We want to take an opportunity to positively to recognize them for their achievements, but I also have to encourage them to keep the hammer down and really focus," said LTCOL Pelletier. The unit also had a change of command at the ceremony. Captain Nehemiah Nattree and First Sergeant Brian Baker make up the incoming command team.

FORT MYERS, Fla.—JaDamion Williams had a rough season in 2012, a step back in his progress through the Twins system.
After hitting .324/.406/.465 with Rookie-level Elizabethton in 2011, the speedy outfielder batted just .234/.311/.340 at low Class A Beloit. He struck out 115 times and drew just 39 walks in 97 games.
It was a taxing year, so the Twins decided to send him on a trip, let him get away from his troubles.
But this was no vacation.
"We decided to send him to Jason Pospishil," vice president Mike Radcliff said of the ex-Twin turned hitting instructor. "So we flew him to Australia to let Jason help him refine his game."
The Twins are one of the major league organizations that utilizes Australia's fledgling professional league as an alternative to Caribbean winter leagues, because with similar food and language, it's less of an adjustment for most Americans. And the Twins already know Pospishil, who managed their Rookie-level Gulf Coast League team last year.
Williams, the son of former major league outfielder Reggie Williams, has relied on his athleticism to get by since the Twins selected him in the 10th round of the 2010 draft out of Brooks-DeBartolo High in Tampa.
"He's got great athleticism, all the tools, but less skill right now. He's still a bit of a project," Radcliff said. "We wanted to sort of force-feed him some at-bats, so he can move forward."
Williams, 22, hit just .218/.281/.278 in 133 at-bats with the Sydney Blue Sox, but the Twins have been thrilled with the results he has shown this spring.
"It looks like a lot of nice things happened," Radcliff said. "His swing looks shorter. He's more direct to the ball. He's got confidence. There's just a different feel to his game now."
• Five weeks after spring camp opened, Deibinson Romero still had not reported. The 26-year-old infielder, added to the 40-man roster last winter and set to attend his first major league camp, was delayed by new paperwork requirements in the Dominican Republic, an unexpected hurdle that the Twins said was not Romero's fault.
• Righthander Deolis Guerra was hospitalized for two days in Fort Myers, then airlifted to Tampa, after doctors discovered a blood clot in his pitching shoulder, which had prevented him from pitching for Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic. Guerra, 23, had surgery to have the first rib from his right side removed, in order to give the artery more room and prevent future clots. Guerra is expected to miss at least three months of the season.

Photos and report by Ricardo Conde
Fast rising featherweight contender Miguel "Mikey" Garcia (22-0, 18 KOs) of Oxnard, CA, trained by his brother, former junior lightweight champion Robert Garcia, and father, Eduardo, will take on southpaw and Roger Mayweather pupil, Cornelius "Lighting" Lock (19-5-1, 12 KOs) of Detroit, MI on Saturday, August 14 at the Laredo Energy Arena in Laredo, TX in a 12-round IBF featherweight title eliminator and will be televised live on Fox Sports Net. In his last outing, the 22-year old Garcia defeated Pedro "El Vaquero" Navarrete (25-8-3, 14 KOs) of Mexico via unanimous decision on Latin Fury 14, which featured the return of the "Tijuana Tornado" Antonio Margarito, in Aguascalientes, Mexico.
