MUMBAI, Oct 7 (Reuters) - Apollo Tyres' $2.5
billion acquisition of Cooper Tire & Rubber Co has
flared into a war of words as the two companies haggle over the
price of the deal plagued by labour issues in the United States,
where Cooper is based, and in China.
India-based Apollo said it may have to bear "significant and
unanticipated costs" that were "well beyond" those it was
obligated to bear under the initial merger agreement.
"Cooper has acknowledged to Apollo that some price reduction
is warranted. The issue now is by how much," Apollo said in a
statement late on Sunday.
Cooper, however, responded saying any change in price was
not warranted. On Friday, Cooper said it had filed a complaint
in a U.S. court to push Apollo to close the acquisition in a
timely manner.
"Cooper has not agreed that a reduction in share price is
warranted," Cooper said in a statement issued late on Sunday.
Under the initial agreement, Cooper shareholders stand to
receive $35 per Cooper share, a premium of more than 40 percent
to its price before the acquisition announcement, valuing the
deal at $2.5 billion.
"The situations with the USW (United Steelworkers) and the
joint venture partner and union in China are a direct result of
the merger agreement, and are risks Apollo assumed under the
merger agreement," Cooper said in a statement.
Apollo is negotiating a deal with the United Steelworkers,
which represents Cooper workers in the United States, after a
U.S arbitrator ruled Cooper cannot sell two of its factories in
the country until a collective bargaining agreement is reached
between Apollo and members of the plants' union.
"Apollo has indicated to the USW in discussions over the
past two weeks that Apollo is willing to make material
concessions to the USW, subject to arranging for additional
financing or financial concessions," Apollo said.
Separately, workers at Cooper's China joint venture, Cooper
Chengshan Tire Co, in eastern Shandong province, have been
striking against the deal for about three months, while Cooper's
local partner has filed a lawsuit seeking to dissolve the
business arrangement.
Last month, the Chinese plant's union said the workers
refused to make Cooper-branded tyres, and would stop putting the
JV's production, operation and financial information into data
"Cooper has misrepresented its management and control of
this asset to Apollo and to its own shareholders," Apollo said
in its statement.
"Cooper's efforts to establish control over its subsidiary's
operations and to assert Cooper's rights against its JV partner,
Apollo cannot be responsible for Cooper's failures to do so," it
The two companies declined further comment when contacted by
Shares in Apollo gained as much as 3.8 percent on Monday on
growing uncertainty about the status of the deal. Apollo shares
have struggled since announcing the deal earlier this year as
the Indian tyre maker plans to fund the acquisition entirely
through debt.

Active Memory Expansion now available on VLP.
Find out how to use AME from the VLP user guide - http://cot.ag/byaXp6
Active Memory Expansion is an innovative POWER7 technology that allows the effective maximum memory capacity to be up to 100% larger than the true physical memory maximum for AIX 6.1 partitions.
Active Memory Expansion relies on compression of in-memory data to increase the amount of data that can be placed into memory and thus expand the effective memory capacity of a POWER7 system. The in-memory data compression is managed by the system, and this compression is transparent to applications and users.
Active Memory Expansion is configurable on a per-logical partition (LPAR) basis. Thus, Active Memory Expansion can be selectively enabled for one or more LPAR's on a system.
When Active Memory Expansion is enabled for a LPAR, the operating system will compress a portion of the LPAR's memory and leave the remaining portion of memory uncompressed. This results in memory effectively being broken up into two pools - a compressed pool and an uncompressed pool. The operating system will dynamically vary the amount of memory that is compressed based on the workload and the configuration of the LPAR.
Because Active Memory Expansion relies on memory compression, some additional CPU utilization will be consumed when Active Memory Expansion is in-use. The amount of additional CPU utilization needed for Active Memory Expansion will vary based on the workload and the level of memory expansion being used.

We were given a manila envelope and told to fill out all of the paperwork inside before his next appointment in 3 weeks. I sat down that very night armed with a pencil and a Diet Coke. This shouldn't be hard. Just answer the questions.
19 thoughts on "…fail?"
Oh Lola…I promise it will get better. Please don't take it personally, you are a great mom, the best mom for that little person. Tay is one cutie of a kid and he's going to do just fine. You did NOT fail him, you are doing what is best and right for him. I love you chiquitita…you're the best :o)
you did not fail him, this is an internal-nobody's fault issue. the fact that you love him enough to do whatever is needed to help him be everything you know he can be is proof enough that you are not a failure, quite the opposite i would say.
Fail? I don't think so. You know the only one holding on to the fact he was there in that orphanage is you. He has forgotten all about it, and has moved on with his happy little life, he is loving and loved and that is all that matters! Let it go and be happy with him Lola! What 6 year old boy can sit still? Not one of mine. Why is it that we expect these kids to be dumbed down, and label them with letters because they are unlike the rest? This part of him is something amazing just waiting to get out and express himself. I for one can't wait to see what his so called disorder propells him to become!
You did not fail! My Karas had autism and ADHD. I did not fail her. The Lord sent her here the way she is for us. She is here on this eathly world to teach someone something. I don't know if that someone is me or if I am preparing her to meet someone else she is to help. John and I did nothing to make her this way. The Lord sent her and your little guy the they are for a reason. You may not know now, you may have to wait for the eternities to find out. Hang in there. He'll be great!
I will be Ok. I know believe me, I know. And you will doubt yourself again. I do. But it will be ok.
As mothers, don't we all feel that we failed our child(ren) in some way? I know I do. Look at the positives…God didn't put that little boy in your life (or yours in his) to self-doubt. Embrace the hurdles, hold his and leap over them together!
You'ce not failed in the slightest with your son. You are the one who has gotten him a diagnosis and are willing to work with him to handle this. Many parents I know ignore their kids ADHD and do not monitor medication proberly so the kids grow up lawless and without boundaries.
Stop beating yourself up and recognise that you have actually done something quite remarkable and loving in getting the diagnosis. That is being a loving mother, not a failure.
Hugs from a Brit with an adult friend who has ADHD!
I'm sure it's overwhelming right now. Sometimes we KNOW something in our heads long before we know/feel it in our hearts. You know it's not your fault, but you can't help think and worry about it. It means you're a good mom that you're thinking there's something you could've done better to make it better for him. But honestly, it's not all about you–you couldn't have done anything different. He is who he is. He was made that way by Heavenly Father and given to you and ONLY YOU as a steward over the early, important years of his life. If He trusts you, you should too!
As a teacher, I can tell you that once a child has been diagnosed, things get better. It makes a huge impact on the child's life to know he has help (medication, teachers who know his situation) and that he can ask for help from adults who care for him. Helping him learn coping skills while he's young, before the hard work or Middle and High School start, will drastically improve his chances of success. You've done the right thing. 🙂
You haven't failed him. Quite the contrary. You've loved him. Such a precious gift you've given him. Your heart. Your family. Imagine his life if you hadn't opened your arms and heart to him. Who would have cared enough to take him to the doc to start finding his answers?
Oh sweetie, you did not fail. He IS perfect! But we have no idea what happens in those orphanages. And we do know that the first year, there is so much growth and development in their little brains. It is NOT your fault. You are the BEST mommy for him. He is your precious boy, given to you by God because He knew you needed each other. I am glad you were finally able to get a diagnosis. I know, at least for us, the struggle to find a diagnosis that fit was so frustrating. But now you have it and can move forward. Thankfully, he is excited and wants to be successful. That is a huge blessing.
I am praying for you.
It's not your fault.
Print that, cut it out, and carry it in your pocket. Take it out and look at it whenever you need to.
My son has Sensory Integration/Sensory Processing Disorder, and it's been a tough row to hoe. It STILL is. Intellectually, he's way ahead. Socially, he's way behind. I fear for him. And I wonder if I did something wrong.
But I didn't. It's just how he's made.
So remember that. There will be tough days. But most days will be good days. And no one can take away that HE IS YOUR SON and he loves you and you love him.
Goodness… e-mail me privately, please!
My son is adopted, and smart, handsome, ADHD and 26. ADHD is a wiring issue not a parenting one. Having the "label" is a relief like knowing you have diabetes when you wondered what was wrong. Now you can work on helping him. It is an interesting ride, but worth it in every single way. He is a gift and the ride was a gift.
Please, please don't think it's anything you have done. A lady in our ward adopted over 20 (yes thats not a typo) children of various ages from orphanages in Russia….nearly all have this disorder. But what wonderful lives they have because she had the capacity to give them the gift that she did. And your little guy is equally as lucky. And you are lucky to be his mommy. Just do what your "mommy-sense" tells you to do. As a former 1st grade teacher, I have seen so many kids that do well with meds, and others that did well without. (As a side note…one of our best friends had a motorbike accident at 14, and when he woke up, he no longer had adhd….)_He is now a dr. of psychology with his own practice in Phx, and he insists that it is something PHYSICAL in his brain that was somehow "dislodged" or changed. He has three children, and all have it. Genetic? I would say it's a definite possibility. Just a thought. email@example.com
It's hard to know when they are really young. I always thought my son had ADHD until I was talking to the school district psychologist and he had mentioned Sensory Processing Disorder (I see someone else mentioned that). I looked into it and the lights went on in my head. It can look a lot like ADHD but doesn't require drugs just occupational therapy. So if he doesn't respond to medication you may want to check into SPD. It's hard because my son acts up at school, on the bus and at church (we don't do sharing time anymore) but I just do the best I can and not let myself feel that mommy guilt. It really is just a wiring issue. Hang in there. The Lord gave him to you for a reason, he knew you could do this.
I ave been there! I have 5 adopted children and held out doing EVERYTHING to accommodate before ever considering the meds routine. For us it worked like night and day for two of them. We were able to do after school activities for once. Now we did end up homeschooling, but it worked for them and us. Write if you have ANY questions or just need to talk out loud. I get it! Remember, the Lord has placed YOU as the parent for these kids…all of them and He knows the beginning to the end. How funny that we think we are in control! Hah.
Have a blessed day,
I just happened upon your blog. I have no insight on the matter, but I just wanted to tell you that my heart goes out to you. The fact that you are able to subjectively look at his behavior and help to get him the help he needs shows that you are a caring and loving mom. I hope all is well.
You know in your HEAD you did not fail him, and that you did not determine his body's chemistry, and that this is NOT a fail in any way on anyone's part;
but your HEART says you're the mom, and feels that love should fix everything.
Knowing and feeling are two different things.
It's that simple.

Bring Baby Along
Redefine date night
It is definitely important to maintain some special couple time, even when you welcome a new addition to your family. However, when Baby is a newborn and (fingers crossed) is still sleeping quite a bit, you can still squeeze in couple time without having to leave Baby behind. After all, when Baby is a newborn, it's hard to leave her for very long anyway, especially for new mothers who are exclusively breastfeeding. You may have to readjust your way of thinking now that you're parents. Date night can be so much more (and so much less — in a good way) than just dinner and a movie.
Make it short and sweet
Before Baby arrived, your date nights may have lasted into the wee hours of the morning. Now, it's all about making the short amounts of time you have together count. For example, when it's time for Baby's evening nap, bundle her up, put her in the stroller or carrier and walk with your honey while you push Baby around the neighborhood. Or if Baby finds car rides soothing, strap her in and take a drive together. As Baby gets used to this routine, you can experiment with taking her along to an art walk or an outdoor festival.
Have a park picnic
Pack a basket with your favorite goodies and an oversize blanket; load your iPhone with some special tunes; fill the diaper bag with some board books and soft toys; and head to a local park for a relaxing day date for three.
Coffee for two
Yes, the mornings tend to be chaotic, so you might not normally consider it a good time for a mini-date with your man. However, if you play your cards right, you can enjoy a quick coffee shop date before rushing off to work. Plan the date and set your alarm clock for an hour earlier than usual to build in enough time to sip a latte and chat at your favorite coffee shop while Baby has her morning bottle in the stroller.

Hey there Muppet fans! There's a brand new Muppet video online today from The Muppets Studio and it stars, you guessed it, Beaker as he sings, you guessed it, "Dust in the Wind" by Kansas! Check out the madness that ensues!
Now... if you need a testament to how much I enjoy this video... well, I saw Kansas perform "Dust in the Wind" live and it just barely beats Beaker singing it on the enjoyment scale. Another home run for Muppets Studio!

- For each climb, there is a reference time, similar to the median time now. The reference time is the average of the adjusted times for riders doing the climb.
- For each rider, there is a time adjustment factor. The time adjustment factor is the average of the ratio of the rider's time for a week to that week's reference time. So if a rider always does a climb 10% over that climb's reference time, that rider's adjustment factor will be 1.1.

proposed 2012 Low-Key Hillclimbs scoring algorithm description
5 comments:
- Bike Telemetry said...
Sounds good! I think many can see the rationale for boosting the scores across the board in the Mix Canyon situation. But this will cut both ways. Say some ride brings out proportionately more endurance riders rather than elite riders. This might be due to weather, a date clash, or the type of climb. I wonder if Mt Hamilton brings out a statistically different crowd for example. How will competitors react when you downgrade their scores across the board because of a weak field?
- November 11, 2011 at 1:36 PM
- djconnel said...
Ideally riders should score based on how well they rode, independent of the field, as opposed to the present situation where it depends heavily on the field. So if a climb tends to attract more riders below the global climb-weighted average climber, then on that climb, more than 50% of the riders might score below 100%. This will compensate for the fact on steep climbs (or poor weather) which tends to attract above-average climbers, more than 50% might score over 100 points.
- November 11, 2011 at 1:42 PM
- Robert said...
If you want a scoring system that's independent of who shows up then you'll have to standardize on what's always there: the climb.

I haven't seen how you calculate this yet, and I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. Nevertheless, it sounds like, ultimately, you are trying to hone in as accurately as possible on a "reference time" for each climb.
I like your attempt at doing this, and I am interested in learning more. But, if your main concern is "Ideally riders should score based on how well they rode, independent of the field" then why not calculate an objective reference time based on the climb stats? There are a number of calculators where you can simply plug in some numbers, and get a projected time. Tim Clark's calculator comes to mind. I think it could be really objective. If you do this, the variable is no longer "who shows up for the ride," but rather the environmental conditions (i.e. was there a strong headwind). I believe that the environment will have a smaller impact on scoring than the fluctuations in ridership.
By the way, I'm not trying to knock your system. In fact, it might be interesting to see it run for a year. The complexity of having scores change from week to week could add an additional element of excitement. On the other hand, though, I'm typically a fan of the KISS rule. (Keep it Simple, Stupid!)

That's an interesting idea, and in fact I'd never before considered that. Part of it is that only in the past few years have good profile data been universally available for climbs: back in 1995 detailed profiles were precious.
But there are a variety of factors that a simple profile-based result will miss. For example, a time trial stage might be slower than mass-start, and wind conditions vary, and rolling resistance depends on the surface quality. These aren't enough to invalidate an objective approach, but even a ±5% difference in a rider's speed from the modeled value for a given P/M would have enormous impact on the standings. For example, rolling resistance is typically around 7% of total power, and wind resistance up to around 12%, for a fast climber on Old La Honda. So a 50% change in rolling resistance would be around ±3%, and a 30% difference in wind resistance around ±4%, so the errors add up quickly. With the enormous statistical pool we have I think we should be able to do better.

text: {- Computer Aided Formal Reasoning (G53CFR, G54CFR) Thorsten Altenkirch Lecture 15: Coinductive definitions In this lecture we look at infinite structures, in particular streams which are infinite sequences (similar to lists which are finite sequences). We are using Agdas type of delayed computations (∞ A) to represent infinite structures. Applying the Curry-Howard isomorphism we can also represent infinite proofs. We are using this to define bisimilarity, i.e. extensional equality of streams. -} module l15 where open import Coinduction open import Data.Nat open import Data.List open import Relation.Binary.PropositionalEquality {- Agda doesn't permit the construction of infinite lists (as in Haskell) because lists are defined inductively, hence all lists must be constructable with a finite amount of constructors. As a consequence Agda rejects the following program: from : ℕ → List ℕ from n = n ∷ from (suc n) -} {- To represent infinite sequences we define the type of streams using ∞ X which represents "delayed computations of X". Because we are not constructing the whole stream now we can represent an infinite objects. This is reminiscent of the definition of a function - we don't calculate its values yet but only when required. -} infix 5 _∷_ data Stream (A : Set) : Set where _∷_ : A → ∞ (Stream A) → Stream A {- ∞ comes with two basic operations ♯ : A → ∞ A (delay, turn a term into a delayed computation) ♭ : ∞ A → A (forcing a delayed computation to evaluate) ∞ = \infty, ♯ = \sharp, ♭ = \flat -} {- We can now define ℕ by delaying the recursive computation of the tail of the stream.-} from : ℕ → Stream ℕ from n = n ∷ ♯ (from (suc n)) {- We can access the tails of the stream using: -} tail : ∀ {A} → Stream A → Stream A tail (a ∷ as) = ♭ as {- Or more generally we can obtain a list of the first n elements of a stream. -} taken : ∀ {A} → Stream A → ℕ → List A taken (a ∷ as) zero = [] taken (a ∷ as) (suc n) = a ∷ taken (♭ as) n {- Try "taken (from 0) 10" -} {- It is important that a recursive definition computing a stream (such as from) is "productive", i.e. whenever we want to access any component of the stream we can do this by forcing previously delayed computation. -} {- The following is an example of a non-productive definition which is rejected by Agda bad : Stream ℕ bad = 0 ∷ (♯ (tail bad)) While we can compute the head of bad (0) we cannot calculate its tail, because it is just defined by itself (bad recursion). Agda recognizes productive definitions, if they are "guarded". I.e. ♯ guards a recursive call and there are only constructors in between ♯ and the recursive call, not arbitrary functions like tail. Note that there are cases of productive definitions which are not guarded. Agda will reject them and we have to find another way to calculate the result. This is similar to recursive definitions which are structurally recursive but this is not always recognized by Agda. -} {- Let's prove a simple theorem about "from". First of all we notice that Stream like List is a "functor", i.e. we can "map" a function over a stream: -} mapStream : {A B : Set} → (A → B) → Stream A → Stream B mapStream f (a ∷ as) = f a ∷ ♯ (mapStream f (♭ as)) {- "mapStream f as" applies the function f to each of the components of as. Note that the definition of mapStream is guarded and that each time we force the output (i.e. force the delayed computation "♯ (mapStream f (♭ as)") this will in turn force further computation of the input by evaluating "♭ as". -} {- The theorem we want to prove is that mapping suc to from n is the "same" as from (suc n): (n : ℕ) → mapStream suc (from n) ≡ from (suc n) However, we are unable to prove the theorem in the above form. The reason is that Agdas propositional equality (≡) is too "intensional". Consider "mapStream suc (from zero)" this evaluates to something like "1 ∷ .l15.♯-2 suc 0 (.l15.♯-0 0)" "from (suc zero)" this evaluates to something like "1 ∷ .l15.♯-0 1" While the heads of the streams (1) are clearly definitionally equal the tails are different delayed computation. Moreover both expressions are closed and hence the only way to prove "mapStream suc (from zero) ≡ from (suc zero)" would be by refl but this is only possible if they are definitionally equal. Hence we need a different "extensional" equality for streams. This equality should identify two streams which have identical components. The main idea for the definition is to apply the idea of a delayed computation into the delayed computation of a stream. Hence we define: -} infix 4 _~_ data _~_ {A} : (xs ys : Stream A) → Set where _∷_ : ∀ {x y xs ys} → (x ≡ y) → ∞ (♭ xs ~ ♭ ys) → x ∷ xs ~ y ∷ ys {- The idea is that to prove that two streams are equal we show that the heads are equal and provide a delayed computation proving that the tails are equal. -} infix 4 _≈_ {- The definition used in the Agda library gets rid of the equality proofs by noting that we can just identitfy x and y. It is easy to show that both are equivalent. -} data _≈_ {A} : (xs ys : Stream A) → Set where _∷_ : ∀ x {xs ys} (xs≈ : ∞ (♭ xs ≈ ♭ ys)) → x ∷ xs ≈ x ∷ ys {- For historic reasons the relation _~_ is called "bisimularity" because it is conventionally defined via "bisimulation". Our definition using Curry-Howard and the idea of a delayed computation is an alternative. -} {- It is now surprisingly easy to prove the reformulated nthLem: -} nthLem : (n : ℕ) → mapStream suc (from n) ≈ from (suc n) nthLem n = suc n ∷ ♯ nthLem (suc n) {- We simply observe that the heads of both sides are identical and that the tails are an instance of the theorem we are just about to prove. Hence we can construct an infinite proof that both streams are equal. -} {- We show that ≈ is an equivalence relation using infinite proofs again. -} refl≈ : ∀ {A} → (as : Stream A) → as ≈ as refl≈ (a ∷ as) = a ∷ ♯ refl≈ (♭ as) sym≈ : ∀ {A} → {as bs : Stream A} → as ≈ bs → bs ≈ as sym≈ (a ∷ as≈bs) = a ∷ ♯ sym≈ (♭ as≈bs) trans≈ : ∀ {A} → {as bs cs : Stream A} → as ≈ bs → bs ≈ cs → as ≈ cs trans≈ (a ∷ as≈bs) (.a ∷ bs≈cs) = a ∷ ♯ trans≈ (♭ as≈bs) (♭ bs≈cs)

#1 – "I Cannot…"
One of the things that seems to be appearing over and over again to me as I read the Scriptures is this thought…
At the end of the day…I am a servant of the Most High God! AND…a servant can do EXACTLY what his master has commanded him to do because he is operating under the power and authority of the One who called, equipped and empowered him to serve in the first place.
You can do EXACTLY what God called you to do!!! Don't back down!
#2 – "I Am Not As Good As…"
Comparing yourself to other ministers and/or ministries is one of the quickest ways to go insane and completely lose your focus on who God is and what He has called you to do.
We should learn from "them" but focus on "HIM!"
There will always be someone who does something better than you! Your call isn't to imitate people but to focus on Christ!!!
#3 – "I Failed Before"
Of course you did!!!
All great leaders have failed at something significant!
However, what makes them great is that they do not allow their failures to define them. They pick up the pieces and move forward. They learn lessons from their failure…if there was a sin issue involved they repent and submit to Jesus and the leadership of others…and then they get on with life!!!
Peter failed! Remember when he tried to cut off the servants ear and had to be rebuked by Jesus!!! YET when it came to Acts 2 and the day of Pentecost he was the guy who Jesus anointed to preach the Gospel and see over 3k new believers!
#4 – "All Hope Is Gone"
Uh…the only problem with that thought is THE TOMB IS EMPTY…and as long as that is a reality then there is always hope…ALWAYS!
I know some reading this feel like you are just about at the end of your rope…but from my personal experience I've discovered when I do get to the end of my rope Jesus is always there saying, "what took you so long?"
Losing hope can bring about times of intense desperation…but quite often intense desperation leads to undeniable revelation!!! When we lose hope and believe that things are just about over…well…that's always a time for God to remind us of WHO HE IS and what He is capable of!

As a huge steampunk geek, I've spent a fair amount of time hunting for steampunk Lego creations. Recent, I stumbled upon a new theme being designed on Cuusoo, Hyperborea. It's being designed by the same guy who made the Space Troopers theme (which sadly didn't make it out of review). Hyperborea is a very interesting theme, and I'm hoping it passes review. At the very least, the hardsuit instructions that are going to be released soon are probably going to be worth checking out. I'm definitely going to build a few infantry based on the soldiers from there.
You also might want to check out the Space Troopers theme, as it has some very cool vehicle designs that are worth examining (I'm planning on building one of the jeeps if I get the parts, and am studying the drop pod as I design my own, larger version).

I used to think of joining a gym at this time of year. It was never a resolution, per se; I go out of my way not to make New Year's resolutions, because it doesn't seem like a sincere act. Change and self-improvement are ongoing processes, and just because a new year is starting doesn't mean my nature is suddenly going to change.
But I suppose I'm as susceptible to social mores and human nature as anyone else. Like many American consumers, I find myself, consciously or otherwise, eating light and inexpensive lunches at the beginning of the week and then splurging on something spendy and fattening on Friday.
And so I guess that I'm also susceptible to the odor of change in the air as December becomes January, and I look down at my bulging waistline and think maybe I ought to consider doing something about it.
But joining a gym in early January is lame. Gyms in January are crowded with people suddenly eager to spin or Stairmaster or Ellipitcal their way to a happier, healthier more beautiful self, only to tire of the whole thing before it's time to eat those chocolate treats on Valentine's Day.
So I decide to wait to invest in that gym membership, maybe until March.
And then I forget to do it.
A couple of years ago I tried to research when the resolution-making hordes would clear out of the gym so I could join in peace. I called some gyms to ask when they normally quieted down after New Year's. They wouldn't tell me. I think I might have even hurt their feelings, implying that their new customers weren't going to stick around, which most of them weren't. Of course they weren't. Everyone knows that people don't keep their New Year's resolutions. And back when I did go to the gym the brief influx of New Year's treadmill jockeys was a normal phenomenon.
Then, when working on this story about restaurants adding lighter items to their menus — something that happens every year — I came across this research from the University of Scranton. It not only indicates that losing weight is the most popular resolution among Americans — no surprise there — but that 64 percent of people who make resolutions keep them into February, and that 46 percent of them keep them into July.
If most of those longer-kept resolutions were the weight loss ones we'd be seeing a precipitous drop in our obesity levels, and we're not seeing that. So maybe most of them are the be-more-organized or enjoy-life-to-the-fullest types of resolutions. Or maybe even the ones to quit smoking.
Still, I found it interesting that many of the lower-calorie menu items introduced this year weren't limited-time offerings, but permanent additions to the menus, as if the restaurants themselves had resolved to broaden their menu offerings permanently with lighter food.
When I was discussing that story with my colleagues last week, they wondered if those lower-calorie items actually sold, and it's a good question. McDonald's has said of their 290-calorie, relatively high-fiber fruit and maple oatmeal, introduced around New Year's Day of 2011, that it outperformed their expectations, but they've never told us what their expectations were.
"They're doing very well," is a common response to that question when I ask chain executives how low-calorie restaurants are doing, but they invoke the privilege of trade secrets if I ask them to go into further detail.
I've noticed that Taco Bell doesn't have a problem letting us know that they've sold over $1 billion in Doritos Locos Tacos, however.
But introducing these new better-for-you items as permanent menu additions indicates that something's going right. I don't know whether it's PR, a move to eliminate the veto vote from the relatively few customers who don't just say they'll order more healthful items but actually do it, or a response to actual consumer behavior, but it's an interesting phenomenon, regardless.

- About Company
Today the corporation must have the ability to grow in a context of great contention and this can be done not only on account of a good knowledge, professionalism, research, development of new investments, environment protection, but also with an ethical "behaviour" in the relationship with third parties, suppliers, customers and the surrounding world. Profit alone is meaningless to development, unless it is combined with a strong ethical propensity which represents the true and unique engine to continuity and development; the lack of an ethical objective vanishes all efforts for competition and innovation. With no rules, sooner or later the corporation will be isolated, its image and brand will extinguish and eventually it will dissolve. Ethical behaviour becomes the sole motivation for a constantly increasing rush, where production of wealth per se gratifies no more. Growing alone is like no growing at all!. Growing in a group, expressing new ideas, promoting new goals, means not only the growth of the Corporation and its environment but also the growth of the surrounding territory, the areas where its products are sold; it has to be a warning which will distinguish the Corporation from those who do not have a similar behaviour. The example of an ethical behaviour will push other subjects to emulate such a behaviour thus generating similar ways of acting, perhaps because they believe in what they have seen or they have convinced themselves that it is the only direction to aim at. Consequently this will remove negative behaviours and bad habits. Whoever promotes the CARLO SALVI image around the world has to know that it is a burden which however will abundantly reward all those who have been faithful to this image. Every sailor, every climber, knows the unrestrained pleasure and gratification felt whenever a goal has been reached, after a dangerous and exhausting voyage in a hostile environment. It is a reach of an endless sensation of peace.

BMW M6 Power Steering Rack FOR SALE
The BMW M6 Power Steering Rack has a cylinder that encloses a piston, to turn the vehicle's wheels. The piston divides the cylinder which receives pressurized fluid from the steering pump. The fluid flow is controlled by a spool-valve. When the steering wheel is idle, the hydraulic fluid flows around the valve and out to the reservoir. There is a slight, but equal pressure on both sides of the cylinder and hence the piston is at rest. As the steering wheel is turned, its movement is detected by the spool-valve. The steering wheel twists the torsion bar attached to it and the pressurized fluid flows to one side of the piston. At the same time, the fluid on other side of the piston flows to the reservoir. This action forces the rack to one side, thereby turning the automobile's wheels. When the steering wheel returns to the center, the spool-valve returns to neutral.
If you are looking for a genuine BMW M6 Power Steering Rack, you have come to the right place. Buy Auto Parts has a wide range of steering parts for every car make and model. We sell genuine OEM replacements and premium aftermarket parts at unbeatable prices. Each of our steering parts has been tested to meet or exceed industry standards.

Mark Twain once commented that there were lies, damn lies, and statistics. Nowadays, we have labor statistics.
The U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes a wide range of data. Any way one might imagine slicing and dicing data, the BLS does it. On the first Friday of every month, the BLS releases the Employment Situation Report. From this report are two "headline" numbers that everyone focuses on. The first is the number of jobs created or lost in the previous month. The second is the unemployment rate.
In the most recent report, the BLS found that 120,000 jobs were created in November. Also, October's estimate was revised up by 20,000 jobs. And, September's estimate was revised up by about 52,000 jobs. The total of the three months was a gain 430,000 jobs.
Now, I always say that to really see what is going on, one must get into the nuts and bolts of a report. Within the Employment Situation Report are the "A" tables. And, one of the things measured in the A tables is total number of people employed. According to the November issue of the A tables, the total number of people employed increased by 735,000. When one throws in a seasonal adjustment, the total number of people employed increased by 953,000. Whichever is correct, there is a 300,000 to 500,000 job understatement.
The statisticians will likely say that the difference between the headline number and the real number has to do with population adjustments or some other statistical adjustment. For those 300,000 to 500,000 extra people who do have jobs, I'm certain that their jobs count to them if not the statisticians. And, for those 300,000 to 500,000 extra people who do have jobs, life is perhaps a little bit better than before.

Disney Channel Gets Its First Gay Couple
The Disney Channel's Good Luck Charlie debuted the network's first ever gay characters on a recent episode, characters who also mark the channel's first same-sex couple.
In the storyline, parents Amy and Bob Duncan (Leigh-Allyn Baker and Eric Allan Kramer) set up a playdate for preschooler Charlie (Mia Talerico) and one of her new friends. When the kid arrives, the Duncans learn that Charlie's pal has two moms. That's fine, but the potential new friendship is put to the test as one mom chats with Amy, and the other is stuck listening to Bob's dull stories.
i have nothing against gay people, everyone should have the right to love who ever they want. BUT WHEN IT COMES to MY CHILD and her childhood thats where i get mad !! Do NOT go corrupting kids and confusing them at such a young age. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. theirs an age limit for everything and a 3,4,5,6,7,8,9 or even a 10 year shoudnt have to be exposed to all this stuff at such a young age. MORE movies less TV now , now a days we have to supervise everything our children watch, how sad. Times are changing hopefully they cancel the rest of the shows. this is not something we should be celebrating!!!!!!!
How exactly is your child being corrupted by watching a gay couple on TV? Are they performing sexual acts, are they doing drugs...I'm curious what exactly are you afraid of? do you think watching a TV show will make your child gay? Or are you afraid he may ask you questions you don't have the answers to? In either case, just because you don't want your child to see it doesn't mean the rest of us don't have the right to watch it. We all have a right to watch an accurate representation of society on TV. If you create a bubble for your child, you are just setting him up for failure, by not giving him the tools and knowledge he needs to succeed in a very diversed and ever changing world.
I have to say this is a little bit funny, because if you really think about it your version of being "pressured into being gay" works with LGBT youth in the opposite way? Do you know how many kids grow up feeling pressured being into heterosexual? We are propagating a culture of hetero-normativity and cis-normativity with almost everything the media produces—how do you think that affects LGBT youth? What you are saying is that the pressurizing of sexuality only works with pressuring straight kids into becoming gay. That's absolutely ridiculous. Regardless of what your child's sexuality may be, it will not be influenced by what they see on television. So many of my gay friends have come out saying that they genuinely thought they were straight, and when they discovered they were not, they felt like they should be. But they realized they were not straight anyway. LGBT youth are mostly the ones being pressured into feeling straight or becoming straight when they are not.
As a child of gay dads, your comment both infuriates and insults me. You say that you have nothing against gay people and then state that they will corrupt and confuse your children. Hopefully you know being gay is not a choice and unless you want your children to grow up ignorant, they need to be educated about the world. My two dads are amazing parents and you are telling me that loving LGBT parents will corrupt your children. That is mean, ignorant, and offensive to the legitimacy of my family and all other LGBT families. Hopefully you learn to teach your children from a young age to respect and appreciate diversity in this world instead of sheltering them from the wonderful families that you are so scared of.
Emma, I so would rather the Disney Channel educating kids about gay family's.... Then the internet, movies, hateful people on the streets and even you as a parent! What is wrong with you it's 2014? Disney is showing love between 2 humans and their kids! At the same time showing that family's are the same not matter of they are a str-8 parent family or a gay family They are showing there are all kinds of different family's in this world we live in.. My question to you is what if your kid comes to u and say they are gay! What are u going to say? Because kids are coming out very young because they are being shown its okay to be who they are? Because if you say anything other then its okay and I always love you for who your are! THEN YOU HAVE FAILED AS A PARENT
i would love my child no matter what but i rather have them make their own choice in life then being pressured into things at an early age. LIKE i SAID before i have nothing against gay people bc we have family member whom is gay but they respect people around them and epically children and he agrees with me as well. Yes theirs a lot of hate in the media against you guys and i also dont condone it but we should let kids be kids and grow up being kids instead of them wondering if they might like girls or if they might like boys. Theirs a time for everything in life. We give you guys all the respect a human should have an more bc i know it may not be easy in the crazy world to be different but all im saying is that children should have the respect they deserve and their shows she be left alone and pg
Some kids already have two moms or dads and this is a good way to incorporate families like theirs into TV. I'm positive it'll be done in good taste and with age appropriate language and themes. It's also a good way to educate children and parents about this issue. I applaud Disney for taking ALL families into consideration!! BRAVO!
Good Luck Charlie" could be the best family show on Disney. It has a certain charm, the family members genuinely like each other and even though it's formulaic, it is a bit more real than many other family shows.
Now, as far as issues are concerned, Disney is for kids and having an agenda is not appropriate. So if a lesbian couple moved next door and the family went into a tizzy and had long discussions of acceptance or we were to discover that the always absent Mr. Dabney (the Duncan family's cranky neighbor) is actually another woman and the family has a crisis over the news, that would not fit the purpose of teh channel. ABC or ABC Family would be a better choice for such a show. From the way the description sounds, it's rather natural and not that provocative, so Disney is dealing with the reality of some of its viewers and life in America in a way that is appropriate for Disney makes a point, and does not preach.
BTW: On another Disney show "Shake It Up" Disney was criticized by family groups for having a rather flamboyant young man as promoting the homosexual agenda. Ironically some gay groups criticized Disney for not having this young man not be openly gay.
Some of the same battles, yes. However, facts are that gay makes are highly more discriminated against, and are also more victims of hate crimes.
I'm in support of this regardless, obviously. I wish they wouldn't have used two lipstick lesbians though. Not saying how a lesbian should look, but c'mon, let's be a little more realistic.
Wonderful news!!! Way to go, Disney! This is a big, BIG benchmark of progress in our society. We're well on our way to raising the first generation of kids who, beyond being homophobic versus gay-friendly, just don't think it's a big deal to be gay. This is called "normalizing," and we've been walking this road for a long time. Cheering for the Disney channel today!

Ifty420 needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 17 designs submitted by 4 freelance designers.
ABout me? well to keep it simple: My names Bali and I work for a gaming company.
Kids-Teenagers mostly aged between 3-18.
I'm looking for a new pre-loader for our new gaming site called PoshGames.com.
The preloader needs to be sharp, colorful, cartoonish or at least related to the current logo or related
something Posh.
Just to give you an example of what i mean by game pre-loaders and to show you the winning
entry for our last competion here on 99 designs, which was for another site called http://www.i6.com:
Now to give you an idea of what i want for this new arcade http://www.PoshGames.com,
we are looking for something similar to these pre-loader:
http://www.pencilkids.com/the-vault…lash-game/ (wait till advert is over to see pre-loader before the game.)
The colors i'm looking for are the same colors in this game and a similar style: I'm referring to the colors in the
actual game, nice and bright.
The pre-loader should run for some time and also must have a loader bar like in the examples i showed above of http://www.i6.com:
Whatever it is must be animated, other wise we will not consider it as pre-loader.
If i haven't covered anything or you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Yes, it's the ongoing saga. I have a lot of feeeeelings about this house. Lotsa tied up emotion. This could take a while. Hey! I know! We should talk finances!! Er, some other time, then.
And all was right with the world-- birds sang, and happiness reigned.
Both offers fell through. Both buyers backed out as fast as they offered. 'N it cut me. It cut me deep.
This has taught me a few things.
-First and foremost: it's not over til it's over. And even then it might not be over. Don't count your chickens before they hatch. And so on, and so forth.
-People are fickle. I do get that most people want to move into a completely ready house. I get that. Not on a personal level-- I'm just saying that's what I've been told and I choose to believe it. I do get that most people don't look at a house for its possibilities-- some people are not DIYers. Got it.
to the nearly 40 groups of peeps who've walked through the house, I kinda wanna start waving a gun around and hollering,
"Hello, people! Every.single.ounce. of flooring is brand new! All new appliances! Did you know that every single faucet is brand new? Did ya know that? New garbage disposal! New water heater! New doorknobs! New fire alarms, light fixtures, mirrors. . . every single piece of hardware is new in this house, for crying out loud!
The price on the house is fantastic, great 'hood, ssssoooooooooooooo. . . .
I think, if I were to write down every single solitary step of preparing this house, the list would be in the hundreds, if not reaching a thousand.
Also, I would shoot myself because that is a crappy task.
The thing is, when we thought we were "done" with this house and stuck it on the market, we weren't really done. Well, I was done. Mentally. But we still continue improving the inside and the outside of the house.
Let's not even talk about the cost of all this. Shot the budget all to heck. I can't even. . . no. I can feel the chunks rising.
What is my point? I'm not sure I have one. Let's find out.
I think my point is, this sucks. Yep, that's my point.
And you're all, "WELL, DUH!"
I know, I know. But remember? "Mentally done." Stick a fork in me, because I am so done. Yesterday. Before I even started. When you crank out 1,473 to-do's, you get weary. ("Isn't the paint color staging enough? And I put in some fabulous curtains. C'mon!")
I did put in this fan-freaking-tastic new shower curtain in the master bath. I might steal it back, I love it so.
And I read somewhere, that fresh, white towels are really inviting. More so than their colored counterparts. So white towels it is.
My realtor painted the front door black and got a wreath. Wasn't that nice? He knew if I painted one more thing, I might have started swinging a cactus around. (refer to previous post)
I think it made a huge difference. I kinda want a black front door, now.
House is under contract, now. We'll see how the 3rd time around goes. Cross your fingers. And your toes. And your eyes. I can't take this kind of pressure.

The year of destruction,
The year we took back what was ours.
It was the year of rebirth,
The year of great sadness,
The year of pain,
And a year of joy.
It was a new age.
It was the end of history.
It was the year everything changed.
The year is 2012.
