The Company
Located in the painted desert of Arizona, DPI Printing is nestled between the towering mountains of the West and the expansive desert of the South. The organization was founded on the solid principles of hard work, innovation and quality. From the very beginning, the founders kept their sights outward, toward the wide open space of new possibilities.
Established in 1986 as the first major direct-mail check printer, DPI Printing was founded to offer an exceptional value on high-quality checks. By maintaining a clear focus on this original objective, the company evolved and expanded over the years based on market trends and customer needs and desires. It currently offers more than 70 personal check designs, plus a full line of address labels, checkbook covers, check-related accessories and a complete line of business checks. In the last five years, the business line was expanded to include business printing beyond the financials, including rubber stamps, business cards, marketing materials, brochures and promotional items such as pens, mugs and shirts. The company prides itself on being the leader in corporate printing.
The Task
Differentiation in the market has been vital to this organization's success. As a result, the company has come to you, the HR manager, and asked you to be a participant on the newly formed company "green team." This team's focus is on what DPI must do to become a more environmentally friendly business while maintaining its competitive edge. Your role on the team will be to identify what HR practices will be influenced by this new direction and to offer recommendations on changes that can be made within the HRM functions. You have already participated in several meetings where the following commitment statement was adopted:
10 © 2009 SHRM. Myrna L. Gusdorf, MBA, SPHR, and Sandra M. Reed, SPHR
Committed to the environment
Damage to our environment threatens the long-term sustainability of our economy, our prosperity and our way of life. At DPI Printing, our environmental policies are shaped by our conviction that the health of our company is dependent on the health of our communities and society.
Understanding that every part of our business has a potential effect on our environment, we are committed to integrating environmental policy at every level of our company's operations.
Reducing our impact
We strive to decrease our impact on the environment by: n Exhibiting environmental sensitivity in our core business products and services.
Implementing programs to recycle, reduce consumption emissions and eliminate waste.
Getting employees involved through lifestyle changes.
While many tasks still need to be addressed, you are currently preparing for the next meeting where you will discuss how your department will support the new mission and purpose. You must identify measurable objectives from an HR perspective about how your department's efforts will support this new organizational direction. Your presentation must include:
1. Internal company policies or programs (i.e., benefits, rewards, policies, systems, etc.) that will promote the three elements of the commitment statement. What do you recommend for this printing business using the eight HRM functions discussed in the first class session?
2. A plan for how employees will be educated about the programs. What methods should be used to engage employees in this process? Discipline? Promotions?
Financial incentives? None of the above?
3. Additional staffing recommendations, if any.
4. Behaviors or changes that can be made in the HR department to reduce waste and contribute to the organization's new mission.

Over the last couple of weeks 30-year fixed mortgage rates fell substantially… I've seen some recent quotes for 5.5%!
Taking 1/2% off the interest rate (which is what has happened in the last few weeks) on a $300,000 loan saves you $1500 per year in interest charges, which would be a savings of $125 per month or is like taking nearly $21,000 off the purchase price of the house, as compared to the higher interest rate.
With record high inventory and affordability at 3 year highs, this is a great time to be a buyer!
Here are a couple loan officers that I recommend if you are looking for information on what you can afford, how mortgages work, or want to get a pre-approval. Please feel free to contact them or myself if there's anything we can do for you!
Nicci Brown – Edina Realty Mortgage
Cheryl Stuntebeck – Bell Mortgage
No consideration has been received for these recommendations.

Today, dating programs can be a crucial ingredient in China's social diet, with popular programs like if you're usually the one and something away from a Hundred attracting scores of people.
For solitary individuals, they're a platform for looking for possible partners; for fans, they're the main topic of gossip and dissection; when it comes to social elites, they're a topic for derision; and also for the federal government, they're a target for surveillance.
Weighed against western cultures, Asia has usually possessed a value that is vastly different toward marriages and family members. But in the last 30 years, these traditions have already been upended.
I've studied just how old-fashioned Chinese wedding rituals have actually developed in reaction to globalization. In lots of ways, dating programs became a powerful method to facilitate these modifications. By taking a look at the growth of Chinese tv dating programs, we are able to observe how love and marriage changed from a ritualized system mired into the past to the liberated, western-style variation we come across today.
Serving the person
Wedding matchmaking is definitely a significant practice that is cultural China. For generations, wedding ended up being arranged by moms and dads whom used the concept of "matching doorways and windows," which meant that individuals had a need to marry those of comparable social and standing that is economic. Marriage was viewed as being an agreement between two households, plus it ended up being for the true purpose of procreation, not love.
Thought to subscribe to comfort and security, it had been the principal customized in to the second 50 % of the century that is 20th.
But Asia's 1978 Open Door Policy, which transitioned the united states from a rigid, centrally-planned economy to a worldwide, market-based economy, exposed the Chinese visitors to a range of exterior cultural influences. Read more

I have recently started taking a Livestrong class for cancer survivors to rebuild strength after treatment at the YMCA. A group of ten of us, I am the youngest by a decade, workout twice a week with a half-a-dozen trainers. Normally, I get there and jump on an elliptical machine for twenty minutes, do some weights, and end with the group in a small classroom to do exercises to strengthen the core. Today was different.
We were gathered and sent to the small classroom to sample a class. Shareese, a beautiful black woman in her late 30s or early 40s, was going to lead a class of Bowka. I guess it is a group fitness class with South African roots where you spell out letters with your steps, less about dance moves. As Shareese describes the format, she takes off her bigger black t-shirt to reveal a tight hot pink tank top over a black sports bra, which stops right above her bum wrapped in tight black yoga pants.
On the first day of class six weeks ago, I felt myself completely intimidated by Shareese. She is short, about 5'6", but she looks like she could take on anyone. She is super thick, plus size by any fashion industry standard, but she is incredibly toned and muscular. She has a huge chest suppressed by a couple of sports bras and tight shirts on top of that. Her butt is huge and round. Her thighs look like they could crush walnuts. She radiates strength and power.
I find it hard to take my attention off of her. I didn't even realize how much attention I was paying her until I recounted a story to the boys about how she asked me what I was listening to while I was doing my cardio the previous week. I was afraid to tell her. Oh my god, I am at the YMCA. I am pretty convinced all those old men are preachers in between sermons. Nonetheless, against my better judgement, I tell her that I like to listen to Abraham Hicks. "It is like the law of attraction," I stumble. "Have you ever listened to The Secret?" She quickly told me that she loves listening to that kind of stuff, and I turned red as a tomato.
She ended that workout by showing us how, in a downward dog type position, she could swing her leg up to be perpendicular with the ceiling, swing her leg back around until her knee was to her chest, and kick it back to the floor. I, and the rest of the class, were stunned at the display of athleticism.
Within the first few moves, I knew this was going to be one hell of a workout. As I saw sweat begin to bead up on her perfectly toned shoulders, I knew I was going to be in more than just physical pain. Immediately, I felt like I had to do well in order to not be perceived as an idiot by her. I am the largest person in class by around 100 pounds. I still thought I could put in a good show.
She begins teaching us combinations, and I immediately kick off the shoes and watch them bounce off the wall behind me. The pain running up my calves and inside my inner arch was excruciating. I tell myself to fight through the pain. I quickly pick up the moves and keep watching her.
What kind of underwear is she wearing? I see no panty lines? Do you think she is wearing a thong? What thick sister in the middle of a workout is going to wear a thong? How does that seam line run perfectly down her crack. Oh my god, stop staring! She is going to realize that you are staring.
When she tells us to add a noise, I abid. If we were instructed to add some flare, I added flare. I picked up the steps quickly, even if I had to take a break every few minutes to try and soften up my cramped calves that are refusing to cooperate. She acknowledges me at some point and I turn beet red and crumple up a little.
I would see her get frustrated with an old guy who was only doing this to support his wife. He clearly had no rhythm. She wouldn't quit until she saw him do it right at least once. Her face would show her frustration, but she kept at it until she felt satisfied. Even breaking a smile. Her brown eyes were so dark and delightful. I loved her dark cafe colored skin next to her eyes. Her hair was natural and up in a frizzy little puff of a bun. I would imagine that she would have the cutest kids.
I continued giving it my all, well beyond my usual level of exertion. I would be distracted by watching her shape move, than going through all the reasons why I would never have a chance. I watched my tall frame in the big mirror. The weight lifting was making my décolletage look great. My curly mass of unruly hair was trapped underneath a brown and white patterned train conductor's cap. I had a good chest, but my belly. God, what a miserable belly! Besides that, I am a smoker. I am fat and a relative cousin to the beauty of Fortune Feimster. I don't even know if she is gay, is married, has kids, etc.
After an hour of this torture, she quickly hands over the group to another instructor to lead us through some core exercises. I miss her absence as I am trying to hold my 340lb frame in a plank off my knees. I can't even contemplate some of the other moves and find myself laying flat on the floor, cursing my inability to even raise my knee to my chest for a stretch.
We are released and I start to pick up my gym bag and shoes. Shareese smiles at me and complements me on my good energy. I barely could pull it together to thank her and smile back before I start to bust out of the door. I am so embarrassed. Just as I hit the entrance, another trainer catches me to tell me how great a dancer I was. I thank them, just as shyly, and run to my car.
I can see my pink face in the rear view mirror and feel the excitement and horror of being "seen" coursing through my veins. I completely don't know what to do with myself, tearing up because I feel so foolish. I vow to stop and get a cupcake on the way home.

State Department highlights blasphemy laws in annual religious freedom report
August 11, 2016
The US State Department has issued its annual international religious freedom report and highlighted the relation between blasphemy laws and human rights violations in "deeply conservative Islamic societies."
"Societal passions associated with blasphemy – deadly enough in and of themselves – are abetted by a legal code that harshly penalizes blasphemy and apostasy," the report stated. "False accusations, often lodged in pursuit of personal vendettas or for the personal gain of the accuser, are not uncommon. Mob violence as a result of such accusations is disturbingly common."
The report continued, "In addition to the danger of mob violence engendered by blasphemy accusations, courts in many countries continued to hand down harsh sentences for blasphemy and apostasy, which were used to severely curtail the religious freedom of their residents."
David Saperstein, ambassador-at-large for international religious freedom, said in an August 10 briefing that "76% of the world's countries provide the basic conditions for people to freely practice their religion or beliefs." Nonetheless, he said, nearly three-quarters of the world's people live in the 24% of countries where religious freedom is severely restricted.

The Global Warming Fraud - Zedta - 12-11-2007
I have been studying this Global Warming issue for a number of years. I find that the world is indeed warming, just as it has, cyclically, for a number of "cycles" in the past and then cooled again. There was melting of the polar ice caps and climate changes with droughts in the 30's and then, in the 70's the "scientists" (most were as now, social scientists) saying that we need to change out carbon load and on and on... :jester::blah:
Well, if man is responsible for global warming, then I guess man must be responsible for the warming of all the planets in our solar system. NASA has said that there are signs of "global warming" on every planet in our solar system where we have a probe in orbit. What a true master of the universe is man! We can influence the entire solar system too!! :huh?:
Well, here is a study by three Universities (climatology colleges :clap: ) that supports the data indicating that Carbon Dioxide is not a pollutant but a necessary gas and that it is the sun that is the culprit here (and on the other planets it would seem) and then, I guess, the others are just using the global warming banner for social change...what a surprise!!? :hmmm:
Here's the article and a link:
Study says humans not heating up the planet

Jim Brown
OneNewsNow.com
December 11, 2007
</MTIFEXTRAFIELDS> A new peer-reviewed study disputes the claim of former Vice President Al Gore and other green activists that global warming is caused by human activity and constitutes a "planetary emergency."

The study -- conducted by climate scientists at the University of Rochester, the University of Alabama, and the University of Virginia -- finds that atmospheric warming patterns, or "fingerprints," over the last 30 years are not caused by greenhouse gas emissions. The report is published in the December issue of the International Journal of Climatology. Results from the study greatly contradict the findings of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
Dr. S. Fred Singer, professor emeritus of environmental science at the University of Virginia -- and president of the Science and Environmental Policy Project -- says he is "fairly" sure that the current warming trend is due to changes in the activities of the sun. "The sun is constantly active, emitting particle streams that carry magnetic fields; and they in turn have an influence on the climate of the earth," he says.
Singer says he and other global warming skeptics have grown accustomed to claims that they are beholden to the oil and gas industry. "Of course that's not only untrue, but it's completely immaterial," says Singer. "In other words, we are using the data that is furnished by the IPCC. They are published, we use only published work. What we are basically doing is to make a comparison of model results and observations."
The report concludes that carbon dioxide is not a pollutant and therefore "attempts to control CO2 emissions are ineffective and pointless -- but very costly."

I think humans need something to fear. There is always someone who'll exploit that fear for material or political gain. For those old enough to remember the 80s it was all about nuclear war back then. That threat still exists but we hear very little about it.
I'll bet that what gets us in the end has nothing to do with global warming.
It's simply a good way to keep people off balance and concerned about something other than how corrupt and dishonest the politicians are.

Should the generality of scientists choose to eventually acknowledge this, and that is a very big if, the propaganda machine will find another engine for social change. I remember in the 60s it was, inter alia, the "population explosion." Heck, what a great excuse for ignoring the proper consequences of one's actions that was!

I was taking astronomy at college this semester and we were looking at how low-mass stars, when they get older, begin to expand and eventually become red giants. Our sun is such a star, and as a red giant will be big enough to touch the earth's current orbit (which will have expanded by then, but the sun will be hot enough still to roast everything on earth and evaporate the oceans. Ouch.)
... Well, I do hear the world will end in fire.

The Global Warming Fraud - Zedta - 12-20-2007
The hole in the climate change facade is growing larger. Here is this from Earth Changes TV newsletter:
A growing group of scientists from many countries including the United States have published their views in The International Journal of Climatology of almost bewilderment of what they heard and witnessed at the Bali IPCC conference.
One of the authors, David Douglas, a climate expert from the University of Rochester, in New York states: "The observed pattern of warming, comparing surface and atmospheric temperature trends, doesn't show the characteristic fingerprint associated with greenhouse warming. The inescapable conclusion is that human contribution is not significant and that observed increases in carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases make only a negligible contribution to climate warming."
According to co-author John Christi from the University of Alabama, "satellite data and independent balloon data agree that the atmospheric warming trends do not exceed those of the surface," while greenhouse models "demand that atmospheric trend values be two to three times greater."
Climatologist Fred Singer at the University of Virginia and another co-author stated: "the current warming trend is simply part of a natural cycle of climate warming and cooling that has been seen in ice cores, deep sea sediments, and stalagmites." Hmm, where have I heard this before? "Global Warming: A Convenient Disguise": "There will be warming trends and cooling trends. It is simply the cycle of life and the universe. Always has been - always will be." (Mitch Battros)
Reporter David Deming of the Washington Post covered the Bali conference. What he has to say does not fare well with Gore's global warming army. "Al Gore says global warming is a planetary emergency". It is difficult to see how this can be so when record low temperatures are being set all over the world. In 2007, hundreds of people died, not from global warming, but from cold weather hazards. "Global warming has long since passed from scientific hypothesis to the realm of pseudo-scientific mumbo-jumbo."
Since the mid-19th century, the mean global temperature has increased by 0.7 degrees Celsius. This slight warming is not unusual, and lies well within the range of natural variation. Carbon dioxide continues to build in the atmosphere, but the mean planetary temperature hasn't increased significantly for nearly nine years. Antarctica is getting colder. Neither the intensity nor the frequency of hurricanes has increased. The 2007 season was the third- quietest since 1966. In 2006 not a single hurricane made landfall in the U.S.
The Global Warming Fraud - Zedta - 12-20-2007
Ya Vandaler,
I have often wondered about that "second-hand smoke" smoke screen. If all it is true, then people of my generation, Boomers, should be dropping like flies. We used to be around second-hand ALL THE TIME. I mean, there were ash trays in every home, in every room even in the hospitals. I remember doctors, on their way to see a patient, asking for a cigarette. Our parents ALL smoked and in the home in the cars and buses...EVERYWHERE!!
So...how come only this generation is having all these problems?
Because we ain't following the money here. Who benefits?
LAWYERS DO...as usual.
Don't get me started. I guess they perform a certain benefit to society, but if we didn't have them, we wouldn't need them. They write all the laws and then of course, they are needed to interpret them. :
The Global Warming Fraud - Varus - 12-21-2007
People may believe the global warming hoax all they want, but I say stop when they try to raise taxes. And that is exactly what they do.

Anchors, reporters and producers with the nation's three largest Spanish-language news outlets -- Univision, Telemundo and CNN en Espanol -- have taken notice and credit GOP lawmakers for trying. One of them is Jorge Ramos, the co-anchor of "Noticiero Univision," the nation's most-watched Spanish-language nightly newscast and the moderator of "Al Punto," the network's Sunday morning political talk show.
We spoke with Ramos recently about the renewed Republican outreach and how it might help the party in future elections. A lightly edited transcript of the interview appears below:
O'Keefe: So what do you make of the fact that Republicans are reaching out to Univision, Telemundo and CNN en Espanol more often?
Ramos: "It's simple math. We are growing so fast, we are 55 million right now, and in 2050 we're going to be 150 million in this country. Those are numbers that you can't put aside. It's truly a demographic revolution. From my point of view, we have been deciding presidential elections since the year 2000 and we'll continue to do so in the future.
"In 2016, there are going to be 16 million Hispanic voters. So in a very close election there's no question that we'll decide who's going to be the next president. That's the context, it's simply a matter of numbers.
"It's obvious that our newscasts are not in prime time, but if you take into consideration that Univision for the first time ever is number one in prime time, beating the big four networks from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m., we're only talking 18- to 49-year-olds, that means that there's a huge interest in whatever we're doing in entertainment or news.
"Now, when it comes to immigration, there is no question that Latinos are paying attention to whatever we say at Univision, because what we're doing at Univision is slightly different than what the other networks are doing. We're not only informing what's going on, but somehow, our audience is expecting some kind of guide on what to do, not only when it comes to immigration, but also when it comes to the economy, education and health care.
"The way I try to explain it is we're 17 percent of the population, but we only have three senators. There's a lack of political representation. And somehow, like it or not, Univision has taken that role. We are somehow filling the political vacuum in the Hispanic community. So yes, there's much more interest in whatever we do. When it comes to immigration, if you want to be seen and heard, you have to talk to us; there's no question about that."
When did you start to see the shift among Republicans?
"I think it started after the last presidential election. When you realize that Latinos voted 71 percent for Obama and only 27 percent for Republicans, it was easy to detect that Republicans had a huge problem. There's a declining trend for Republicans, and if that trend continues, they will lose the White House in 2016. And what I wrote recently and have been saying in other interviews -- if Republicans take the blame for the failure to approve immigration reform, they will lose the White House in 2016.
"I've been studying the voting habits of Latinos for the last three decades. And if the Republican presidential candidate doesn't get at least 33 percent of the Hispanic vote, he loses. The trend is terrible for the GOP right now. So I think that explains why Republicans are so eager to do something about immigration reform right now. The future of the party is at stake."
You're increasingly taking a more activist stance in your writing, on your shows and in these types of interviews. Are you comfortable becoming partly an advocate more so than a journalist?
"I think the audience is very smart, and they do understand the different roles that I play. When I'm doing the newscast, I do not give my point of view, and I do not give my opinion. But clearly when I'm writing books and editorials and when I'm tweeting, I clearly give my point of view.
"You have to remember, Ed, that before being a journalist and before being Mexican American and before anything, I'm an immigrant. I came to this country in 1983, and even though I'm already a U.S. citizen, you never, ever forget that you're an immigrant. Like it or not, somehow I speak for other immigrants like me, with papers or without papers. So I have to recognize that I have a dual role, on one hand as a journalist, following the same principles as any other American journalist and on the other hand as an immigrant and speaking for other immigrants."
Is Univision comfortable with your changing role?
"They are; it's not only my role. You see that the news products that we present to our audience are balanced, and they are journalistically fair and well produced, and you see both points of view all the time. But it is clear that our audience -- and we've seen the polls -- that the majority of our audience is concerned about the immigration issue and is in favor of immigration reform. So we would be doing a disservice to our audience and our community not to reflect that point of view in our newscasts.
"When you see the polls, you ask, what are the most important issues for Latinos and always it's education, the economy and number three or four is immigration. But the reality is that immigration is something personal for all Latinos. We all know someone who's undocumented, who's either worked with us or who's our neighbor or he or she is the parent of someone who goes to the same school as your kids. It is personal. The majority of adult Latinos are immigrants, so it's an issue that's very close to our heart."
How much air time do you devote to immigration on your nightly newscast, "Noticiero Univision?"
"I don't have the exact numbers, because it would take forever to measure the minutes, but I can assure you that every time we have an editorial meeting for our Sunday show or daily newscast that we always discuss a possible immigration story. Always, always, always."
Let me ask you about your Sunday political talk show, "Al Punto." [Which means "To the Point."] Have you seen a marked improvement in your ability to get better guests?
"Yeah, again, I would say that it's been, I've noticed it's become easier to get big names since the election. And I would say that before the election it was easier to get whoever we wanted for our shows. And we had complete access to President Obama and Mitt Romney and to most of their surrogates.
"The last presidential candidate who didn't want to talk to us was Bob Dole in 1996, and that was the last presidential candidate who decided not to talk to us. Since then, every presidential candidate has somehow talked to us."
Why didn't Dole want to talk to you?
"I think it was a silly mistake. It was really interesting, because Bob Dole thought he could win the White House without the Hispanic vote. And I think that was the last Republican presidential candidate who made such a mistake. And then Mitt Romney made a huge mistake: He knew he needed the Hispanic vote, but at the same time, it was impossible to win the Hispanic vote promoting the idea of self-deportation."
Have you interviewed House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio)?
"I have, as a matter of fact; I think we're going to be talking very soon again."
Even though you wrote recently about how he could be demonized by Latinos?
"What I said is the truth. I don't think he wants to be seen as the next [Maricopa County, Ariz., Sheriff] Joe Arpaio. And Boehner has in his hands the possibility of bringing immigration reform to a vote in the House. So that's the reality. Even though it's process and most people in the audience might not follow every single detail of what's going on, since we have informed so much of what's going on, that now it depends on what the House does, then it is very clear that Latinos are putting their attention on Boehner and on whatever he does. He would be the one to get the credit or to be blamed if immigration reform is not approved in the House."
And you will have no qualms with blaming him?
"As far as we know, he has the chance to bring immigration reform for a vote or not, and people know that. I said it in other interviews, but he is the man; Latinos know it and won't forget it."
Is there anyone else you haven't been able to interview, or who has refused?
"Lately, we've been trying to get George W. Bush, because he was such an important presence. Of course, he's the Republican president who's gotten more Hispanic votes than any other president. But he's not talking or not giving interviews.
And the pope, by the way. But everyone wants him.

While there are many announcements about breakthroughs in the synthesis and manipulation of carbon nanotubes and other carbon-based nanostructures, the ability to grow silicon nanomaterials gets less press. Partly that's because it's much more challenging to make them. However, French researchers have figured out how to synthesize them at much lower temperatures.
In the lab, silicon nanowires are usually created by flowing silane gas, the silicon precursor, over gold particles. The metal catalyzes the growth of silicon nanowires as long as the gas is present and, in fact, 99% of lab studies use this approach. However, there may come a time when these silicon nanowires need to be fabricated using traditional CMOS technology, in which case you can't use gold. Gold, it turns out, creates electron traps in the silicon, lessening the material's semiconductor properties.
For industry compatibility, it's better to use either aluminum or copper as the metal catalyst but that presents further problems. In this case, silicon nanowires only grow at temperatures above 450°C. But at these higher temperatures, metal interconnects and devices (such as transistors) present in traditional CMOS electronics break down. Therefore, to create silicon nanowires using methods compatible with traditional CMOS technology, the temperature at which nanowire formation is catalyzed needs to be lower.
And that's exactly what Vincent T. Renard, Michael Jublot, Patrice Gergaud, Peter Cherns, Denis Rouchon, Amal Chabli, and Vincent Jousseaume—researchers at Leti, a French research and development institute—have achieved by adopting a rather counterintuitive approach to the copper catalyst. Traditionally, the one thing you don't want to do is to oxidize your metal catalyst. As it happens, and as the team discovered, copper oxide rather than copper results in silicon nanowire formation at temperatures as low as 400°C. Their article, published in Nature Nanotechnology, describes the catalyst preparation method behind this advance.
We're still many years away from nanodevices but this development moves us an important step closer to incorporating nanomaterials and nanoscale structures into commercial CMOS devices.

Shadow Luigi Says:
January 23, 2008 at 10:54 am
heh heh… i could get you some.. but… Do you wanna know what they look like? they are interesting..
OOPS! i meant to vote for Palka not Dialga!!! so i changed the votes. ^_^'

January 23, 2008 at 9:37 pm
Defintely Dialga.
wow. It's so… white. 😉
Shadow Luigi Says:
January 24, 2008 at 12:18 pm
Hello Lyn master. glad you could make it. 🙂 and yes it is white compared to FE blog.
mercenarylight Says:
January 24, 2008 at 2:27 pm
I'm not much of a Pokémon fan now (i was a long time ago), but I sometimes see it or play my cousin's games and Dialga looks much more cooler than Palkia (maybe because its blue and made of steel). For your blog I would suggest writing about the card game (if you know more than I did) or sometimes make up your own games (print-out, Pokémon-themed minesweeper or something like that, you may even borrow 1 from the internet by asking permission). Be creative and keep it up. I'll check this site later (through RSS).
Shadow Luigi Says:
January 24, 2008 at 3:22 pm
Oh hello! (gosh i've been getting alot of new members..) welcome aboard! 🙂
Palka :}
Shadow Luigi Says:
January 25, 2008 at 4:05 pm
man… somebody VOTE for Palka. 😛
which ones stronger?
Shadow Luigi Says:
January 26, 2008 at 4:12 pm
well.. that depends… Palka Releys on SP. ATK (kinda like Magic besides Strength) and Dialga uses ATK.
mario64mario Says:
January 26, 2008 at 5:30 pm
I'm stickin' with my vote. I mean, I've owned Palkia (for like a whole 20 seconds) but still, Palkia just isn't as visually stunning as Dialga. But. He's (she's) (it's) stronger than Dialga.
Shadow Luigi Says:
January 26, 2008 at 5:42 pm
hee hee hee.. i just use a Master ball on it. ^.^ and also.. DOH?!? its stronger then Dialga?
mario64mario Says:
January 27, 2008 at 3:44 pm
indeed it is.
Advent Master Says:
January 27, 2008 at 4:09 pm
how?? i thought they were the same but with differnt things..
dragoncrash Says:
January 27, 2008 at 6:53 pm
im going to have to say palika only because i taought mine thunder plus its part water……………and water types rock!!!
hrmm….. what about Dialga's WROAR of Time???? 😛

Millions of carloads are shipped via rail each year. Securing wagons for customer to load their shipments is probably the most important service criteria for a rail cargo operator but also a costly service.
The challenging exercise tied with repositioning all the empty wagons from the many points at which they become available to the many destinations where they are needed to load new shipments is known as the empty wagon repositioning puzzle.
Ab Ovo has developed a solution called Empty Wagon Repositioning (EWR 2.0) that solves this complex puzzle. Our solution takes into account the forecasted demand or shipments and creates a train schedule, from which it determines the appropriate number of wagons required over the time period in which train schedules are created. It then fulfills the demand for empty wagons and minimizes the repositioning cost of those wagons.
The EWR 2.0 solution of Ab Ovo supports scenario planning and day of operations planning. With scenario planning, you can predict the level of empty wagon inventory needed, and choose to either lease wagons in case of shortages or rent out wagons in case of surpluses. When using the solution on the day of operations, you retain the ability to immediately adapt to last minute demand changes and to mitigate the impact of otherwise severe network disruptions.
Please contact us if you would like more information, or see a full demonstration, in the meantime take a look at this 5 min video.

Thanks to anyone and everyone who came out to the gig at Beatnik's tonight (or last night, if you're a stickler for the day starting at midnight).
Beatnik's has a really cool Bistro-ish vibe to it, and though I always am hesitant at playing outside, they've got just about the perfect environment for it with plenty of shade and citronella torches. (Though I still swatted more than a couple mosquitoes…I blame the oil spill…) New Town itself is a really nice area, but has a slight "A sci-fi/horror movie could develop here at ANY time" vibe about it.
I was wrong about a thing or two going in. There were only TWO acts, counting me. The second act played an electric set (and they were really good). And the "art show" was not an "art show," but was rather a display of the art of one specific artist on the walls of the restaurant.
The artist does BEAUTIFUL and some slightly visceral work that I really like. Meant to see if he has a website, but like most things I mean to do, I forgot. Talked with the guy for a little while. He was nice enough to ask me about my "process" for songwriting and apparently was a Blue Tattoo fan, particularly citing "I Go…" as a favorite song of his. Apparently prior to booking the gig he'd SPECIFICALLY asked Shawn (who booked it and sang in the other band) to have me play, which was a really nice complement. That's the kind of thing that makes everything you do and go through as a songwriter/indie musician WORTH it. Plus, he's a big Tom Waits fan. So we had plenty to chat about.
Sold a couple of CDs, too…which is also always a nice complement.
So, all in all, a really fun night. I think I ended up playing a little closer to an hour than 45 minutes. No one seemed to mind, and the applause was really generous at times. I forgot the words to the opening song…but in all, it turned out well.
I took a list of 20-ish songs…played them as they came to me…this, as near as I can remember—correct me if I'm wrong—is the set I think I did… (Seems like I'm missing one though…)
- Fighting Drunk
- In My Heart
- Hands
- Mother Maybelle's Shotgun
- I Go…
- Red Vines (by Aimee Mann)
- Remember Me
- Sister Myrtle
- Where is My Mind? (by the Pixies)
- Born in this Town
- Out from the Light
- The Real Me (by The Who)
- Fall Apart
- Stranger
And as a small note for myself in the future, I played my Martin D-15 guitar and ran through the Line 6 delay (for a little reverb), the BBE Sonic Stomp, and the Fishman Dreadnought pedals.
EDIT: I don't think anyone recorded anything, but I know some of you took pictures. I'd be interested to see whatever you've got. Contact me in the comments, e-mail, or via Facebook. Thanks!

Our people, drivers for innovation - the Just Eat graduate scheme
Lucy Rout (centre) joined our UK Marketing department through 2016's Graduate Scheme
By Lisa Hillier, Chief People Officer
From a team of twelve in 2001, we now employ over 2,900 people in 12 markets across the globe. As well as supporting and developing our existing employees, we are committed to bringing emerging talent into our business. That's why we launched our UK graduate scheme. It's been running for a few years now and it is something I am hugely passionate about.
Offering two or three year programmes within specialist teams across our business, the scheme creates opportunities for graduates in a diverse range of areas. From Software Engineering, Product Management and Data & AI, to our UX, Commercial and Finance teams, our grads innovate and influence both local and global business operations.
Innovation is a key driver of our success - innovation in our technology, in our business operations and in our product development. As we grow, maintaining our agility and rapid innovation to deliver what our customers and restaurants want is vital. It's our people who are uniquely positioned to understand the intersection of business operations and product development pipelines that enable us to meet customer demand. While you can't innovate in a bubble, we know that new growth should be spurred from within.
Just Eat has an incredibly open culture. We're about making everyone feel comfortable, sharing ideas and trying out new things. We are passionate about supporting our growing teams, and invest significantly in nurturing the talent we already have across our global business - empowering them to provide excellent service to our customers and Restaurant Partners, and giving them the tools, the knowledge and the support they need to innovate rapidly.
Since the UK scheme was established, 35 graduates have joined Just Eat and we're really proud that 34 are still with the business.
Berk Mollamustafaoglu, one of the successful applicants to the 2016 scheme, works in the Software Engineering team, based in Bristol. He quickly established himself as a vital member of the tech team, leading aspects of our iOS app rebrand, and helping to deliver a number one rating on the Food & Drink category of the App Store, by developing the code for a new app rating prompt.
Lucy Rout, who joined our UK Marketing department through 2016's Graduate Scheme, has already completed rotations in ECRM, Partner Marketing, Consumer PR, PPC and has just started in Marcomms. In partnership with our tech team, she led the development of the Just Eat Ordering Wand, a 'magic' wand concept, harnessing cutting-edge Chirp™ soundwave technology that enables customers to summon their favourite takeaway with the swish of a wand. Lucy also supported on events including Just Eat's three-day summer Food Fest, led activations at the X Factor auditions, and helped develop our nationwide X Factor campaign.
We're now recruiting our 2018 Graduate cohort, with applications open across six key business areas, to bring a new generation of talent into the pipeline.
Wherever you're needed at Just Eat, and wherever you're based around the world, you'll be challenged, motivated and accountable. From top to bottom we've built a vibrant team, with each member aware of their role and value. We look for curious-minded people who want to make an impact and build a career. As well as retaining and developing our existing colleagues, we want to meet and inspire the people with the potential to become tomorrow's leaders.

Mamiya Leaf Announces 50MP Leaf Credo 50 Medium Format Camera System Using CMOS Sensor
A venerable name in medium format photography has announced a long-awaited new system: the new 50-megapixel, CMOS sensor-based Leaf Credo 50. The Leaf Credo 50 was unveiled by Mamiya Leaf this morning, 14 years after the CMOS-based 6MP Leaf C-MOST digital back was announced at photokina 2000.
50MP CMOS sensors have appeared in several new medium-format camera systems recently, including the Pentax 645Z, Hasseblad H5Dc, and Phase One IQ250, all of which have been able to produce relatively low noise images at high ISOs. The Credo 50, can shoot from ISO 100 to 6400, and, like the other CMOS-based medium format systems, is designed to give photographers the ability to capture high resolution photos in a range of lighting conditions while still producing crisp results.
All four cameras appear to use the same 50MP, 44 x 33mm CMOS chip, manufactured by Sony.
"The Leaf Credo 50 simply gives photographers more options," Ziv Argov, Vice President, Mamiya Leaf said in a news release. "Its Sony 50 MP CMOS sensor enables full-resolution image captures up to ISO 6400. Its new image processor improves Live View performance and data flow, while expanding dynamic range to 14-stops. For wedding, portrait, fashion and action shooting, this system delivers."
Here are some other key features of the new Leaf Credo 50:
• Live View on the digital back's rear LCD for framing subjects and selective autofocusing
• Long exposures of up to one hour
• Large, 3.2-inch touch screen display on back with 1.15MP resolution
• 14 f/stops of dynamic range (according to Mamiya Leaf)
• Enhanced image processor reportedly offering faster and cleaner Live View, 2.3GB data flow, 1.2 frames per second shooting and faster read/write speeds.
You can read the full specifications of the Leaf Credo 50 here: http://www.mamiyaleaf.com/credo50.html
The Mamiya Leaf Credo 50 digital back can be ordered now for $26,995. The full Mamiya Leaf Credo 50 system, which includes the camera body, sells for $30,995. Shipping starts on September 16, 2014.
There is also a wide-spectrum back option for Near IR and UV imaging, though pricing has not been released for that set-up yet.
If you're attending photokina 2014 in Germany next week, the new Leaf Credo 50 will be on display in Hall 04.1 at Stand B040 C048.

On 6th September, Paul Hastings published an article about a new draft law that would allow for the prosecution of corporate crimes, in response to and consistent with the recommendations of the OECD Working Group on Bribery that Germany improve its prosecution of legal persons – the Corporate Sanctions Act (Verbandssanktionengesetz, or VerSanG-E). This would enhance enforcement against corporations for business-related crimes, facilitate punishment of culpable companies, promote internal investigations, and incentivise investment in corporate compliance programmes. The Act is expected to significantly change the compliance and investigation practice in Germany and beyond, and may also pose major risks on M&A deals, at least where the target is integrated into the buyer's group. The article outlines key takeaways, including creating incentives for investments in compliance, as a mitigating factor and that can lead to a substantial reduction of penalties. It is also said to weaken privilege protection for documents.

'Imagine a woman who has acknowledged the past's influence on the present… Author of her own life, participating fully in her recovery with its gifts and challenges…remaining loyal to herself. I am that woman'
Take a group of women; possibly recovering addicts, maybe living with mental health challenges or reforming from a crime habit? What changes might they have made, what might they say about the world do you think?
The quote above Celia had on the front of her folder as she walked in for the 'Speak Up! Speak Out!' workshop – she reads it every day she told me – to remind and strengthen her.
As Evelyn arrived, on time, to the complete amazement of the support worker, I felt her power and I stayed as present and warm as I could. There is no substitute for warm eye contact: n every training situation we are all strangers at the start. In another context I might find myself a bit intimidated. But this is not about me, and as you'll discover, I was blown away by the power of these particular women.
I've had my share of personal challenges. I know a bit about the ramifications of addiction, and I've understood some of what it takes to change habits that no longer serve me. Some of the women hinted at having done time, we didn't discuss it further.
The beauty of training people to speak from the heart is exactly that: they do. Every single being on this earth has some great stuff to say once given the chance. I know this from witnessing it over and over, young or old, privileged or struggling. I've heard inspirational speeches in the most ordinary of classroom settings.
After a few hours of training, five three-to-five minute speeches were delivered with passion and without notes. And then one, rousingly political speech given by a Angel who dropped in for the last hour to listen; was moved to join in with no pressure from any of us. Here is a hint of what they said:
Sitting in the local park at lunchtime was the prompt for one speaker; to include the orators and writers buried there: John Wesley, Daniel Defoe, William Blake amongst others. She inspired us with her speaking out, us to relish our city.
'Come as you are' was the opener the next speaker gave; the still, small voice which led her to make a turnaround from criminal activity to faith. She finds peace being in church. Earlier in the day she'd been quiet. This time her voice strengthened as she impassioned us all to value self-acceptance: 'come as you are'.
Yvonne told the stories of two disaffected young women, whom she had helped to find trust in people. She encouraged us to spread a little happiness, say hello to those you see on the street. Be the change you want to see. It's simple.
'The beat passes through your body and comes out as movement'. Have you heard a better description of dancing? This, from Sandra who has found her path away from crime includes holistic, calming activities that keep her mentally free For her that includes teaching Zumba dance: which as we saw it in her passionate speech helpd her stay whole and happy.
We heard impassioned identification of the all the things we need in life: homes, street lighting, parks… how all these and more are a reason to be political. And how women make such great politicians. This was from a women, who only dropped in for the last hour, to watch!
And finally… a woman who's own light-bulb moment came in the form of wanting to create a support system for young people to get their own ideas started. The moment the idea comes, the positive thought leading to positive action. She's going to be there to coach and encourage others inspired by the changes she's been able to make.
I wish we could have bottled the essence of that afternoon. It would contain passion, care, courage and huge self-belief. No matter how many nerves there may have been, at the notion of speaking for four-minutes, without notes: when it came to it this wonderful day proved the need to express one's true self, can carry each of us through. Any person can become a great speaker.

Deaf and hard of hearing students, who cannot successfully access and utilize information in print, experience various difficulties in conventional science instruction, which heavily relies on lectures and textbooks. The purpose of the present review is threefold. First, an overview of inquiry-based science instruction reform, including the sociohistorical forces behind the movement, is presented. Then, the author examines the empirical research on science education for students who are deaf or hard of hearing from the 1970s to the present and identifies and rates inquiry-based practice. After discussing the difficulty of using science texts with deaf and hard of hearing students, the author introduces a conceptual framework that integrates inquiry-based instruction and the construct of performance literacy. She suggests that this integration should enable students who are deaf or hard of hearing to access the general education curriculum.

(Click here for a audio version of this blog)
As April transitioned into May it had finally gotten warm enough in the evening for Deborah and I to sit out on our deck. Late spring is a great time of year to sit outside in the developing darkness: there are no swarms of summertime mosquitoes yet, and the evening is full of great sounds. The robins are singing their nightly roosting songs, and the cardinals and the wrens are singing their territory songs. Also the leaves on the trees that encircle the deck are getting large enough that they have begun to seal off and hide our sitting space. Sitting very still we feel like we have become part of action around us!
Another song popped up into the night time concert a couple of weeks ago. It was a chirping, whirling song from many, widely scattered voices. The song started as the daylight began to fade and kept up all through the night. Every year the same thought process crawls through my conscious brain when I hear this song: what kind of bird is that? That's not a bird! Is that a raccoon? What IS that? Oh, yeah …. Tree frogs!
The gray tree frog (Hyla versicolor) is a close relative of the spring peeper (Hyla crucifer (which is now more properly called "Pseudacris crucifer")). We heard the choruses of the spring peepers back in March. The gray tree frogs emerge from their hibernation sites down in the leaf litter and wet, woody debris later in the spring than the peepers and use their larger body size (they are 1.5 to 2 inches long compared to just an inch for the peeper) to generate a louder, deeper, more resonant song. As with the peepers the male tree frogs are the ones doing the singing. The male tree frogs, though, are primarily solitary (as compared to communally chorusing peepers) so their songs are not as organized or as synchronized as the peepers' "compositions." Like the peepers, the tree frogs are trying to impress and attract their females to meet them in their surrounding ponds and puddles of water in order to mate. Their singing can go on for weeks or sometimes a month or more!
The gray tree frog is found throughout the eastern United States. It lives in trees and shrubs around ponds or seasonal wetlands. Although they are called "gray" they actually can have a range of colors from almost black to a very light green or even white. They can also change their skin color to match their surrounding substrates. These frogs are very good at camouflage (and are, subsequently, very difficult to find!). Their skin has more warts than a typical frog (but fewer than a typical toad!). They also have yellow patches on the inside of their back legs which are visible when they jump. The males have dark colored throats, and the females have white colored throats.
If a male successfully draws a female into his mating area, the smaller male will cling to the back of the female (an arrangement called "amplexus") and wait for her to release her eggs into the water of the pond or puddle. He then releases his sperm and fertilizes the eggs. Small clusters of the fertilized eggs stick to the water plants and hatch into tadpoles after three to seven days. After six to eight weeks of aquatic life, the tadpoles metamorphose into froglets that hop up into the surrounding vegetation in search of very small insects. The rapid, early life development of this species probably reflects the transient nature of its mating habitat's water sources! There is a distinct rush to get onto land as quickly as possible!
The gray tree frog has mucous secreting pads on its toes. These sticky toe pads enable it to cling tightly to tree bark and climb easily through its arboreal habitat. It is a voracious, nocturnal predator of insects and can sometimes even be found outside a lighted window of house (sometimes even sticking onto the window!) feasting on the flying insects that are attracted to the light. They are very active up in the branches of trees and shrubs and jump from limb to limb in pursuit of prey.
The evening chorus of the gray tree frogs is still going on around my house although its intensity is waning. In a wet summer (and we are having a VERY wet summer!), the songs can go on well into early July. Over the past six or seven years, I have had more and more tree frogs in my spring and summer months. I think that the scattered leaf piles I have been leaving around many of my trees might be very good hibernation sites! The small creek down in my lower woods is keeping the spring pools around it full enough to support the tadpoles. Our abundant rainfall this year should keep the creek flowing on through the summer.
The eastern gray tree frog is physically identical to another species of tree frog called Cope's gray tree frog (H. chrysoscelis). The two species are almost impossible to tell apart in the field except for some differences in their calls. Examination of their chromosomes, though, not only distinguishes each species but also suggests an interesting evolutionary story. Cope's gray tree frog is diploid (two sets of chromosomes) while the eastern gray tree frog is tetraploid (four set of chromosomes). It is thought that a common starting (diploid) species via a defective chromosome separation in embryonic development gave rise to cohorts of diploid and tetraploid individuals. These cohorts were separated by advancing ice sheets during the Pleistocene, and by the time the ice receded they had accumulated sufficient genetic differences to prevent their interbreeding.
I am not sure, then, whether I have eastern or Cope's gray tree frogs around my house (or maybe both!). Maybe I should spend some more time listening to their calls to see if I can distinguish the two species!
It is summer!! Enjoy!

Color Mixing for Painters with Christie Scheele
July 27 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
An event every week that begins at 10:00 am on Monday, repeating until July 27, 2020
This four-section online workshop is designed to develop and hone skills in color identification; mixing from primaries; and matching color. Color-mixing exercises that build upon each other reveal principles of creating color, including hue, value, temperature, and tone. Discussion will include color compositions that are subtle or bright; high contrast or low; monochromatic, analogous, or complementary. The knowledge gained will allow artists to incorporate into their work an understanding of where the mixtures that we use come from and how to mix these and any color desired from primaries. Artists will also come away with four color-charts that they created following along with the instructor's step-by-step direction.
Open to painters in any medium.

I leaned down and looked intently at her wedding-ring; my tears fell; —immediately she began to play the favourite, the divine air which has so often enchanted me.—I felt comforted by it; but soon it recalled to my mind the times that are past — Grief, disappointed hopes.—I began to walk with hasty strides about the room—I was choaked—At length I went up to her, and with eagerness said, "For Heaven's sake play that no longer." She stopped, looked stedfastly at me, and said, with a smile that sunk deep into my heart, "Werter, you are indeed very ill i your most favourite food disgusts
