Write a Letter to this Company
First, I want to say that I generally love your supermarkets! I can usually guarantee that no matter what location I go to your store is going to be neat, clean, well stocked and filled with friendly and helpful staff. Today, Monday, March 16th, I took my son to your (location omitted prior to publicly posting). We chose one of the shopping carts shaped like a car as we often do. We had the same pleasant experience that we always have, even through the check-out process. Unfortunately, it was as I was on my way to my car that I was chased by an employee. She gets to me and says "I'm going to follow you to your car because there is a customer waiting on this cart." I was shocked! Since when has it become policy to chase customers down for their cart? After checking out, the bagger typically asks me if I want help to my car. I always find this a nice gesture, but never take them up on it. That's because I like to walk leisurely to my car, get my keys out in my own time, and put my groceries away as I see fit. Then, I return the cart to it's proper home before leaving the parking lot. If I have one of the car shaped carts, I always walk it up to the cart corral inside the store so that the next customer may use it. I do not appreciate however being followed by an employee I did not request simply because there is a customer waiting on a certain cart. I will continue to shop at Publix because of my past experiences. Even though this was an annoying situation, I believe the employee thought she was doing the right thing. However, I would hope that this is not standard policy and that employees will be told that chasing customers out of the store for their carts is unacceptable. The kicker to this situation was that once I got to my car, there was a car cart parked directly in front of my car that someone had neglected to put back, and that your staff had yet to round up.
That's kind of creepy. With people dressing as cops and whatnot tomug people in some places, who knows if someone is dressing up whenthey say they will follow you to your car for a cart or something. Someone else told the OP to let it go, but I think she did a goodthing letting the store know if that bothered her that much. I'd be alittle bothered too if I was walking with my kid to my car and someonesaid they were going to walk with me to my car just for a cart someoneelse wanted. You never really hear a cart person or cashier say thatso it sounds kinda strange.
I feel sorry for the store employee. I think she was trying to pleasea customer but unintentionally displeased another in the process. Ithink the OP should just let it go.
Did the employee actually run you down, or did they approach you atyour car? I'm just curious. On a seperate note, how old is your child that you are comfortableleaving him/her in the car as you stroll the cart back to the store? Ihave cousins that are 5, and I don't leave them alone in the car totake the cart back to the store, far too many things can go wrong.Which leads me to another point, how long does it take you to put yourpurchases in the car? The longer you are in the parking lot,preoccupied with loading the more are risk you are for mugging, etc. Ialways rearrange my bags inside the store, tying some shut if need be,load quickly as I possibly can, and get on my way.I am not a paranoidfreak, but that is the times we live in. Where I live parking lotmuggings are becoming more and more common, broad daylight, goodneighborhood, doesn't matter. The "better" stores in "better"neighborhoods are where the theives are hitting. If I were shoppingalone with a small child, I'd gladly accept a walk to my car andassistance, just for the safety of it, not to mention the convience ofnot leaving kiddo unattended in the car while returning a cart.
I think all the employee was trying to do was provide the excellentservice you say you like for the customer waiting for the specialcart. I don't think it was their intention to bother you. To eachtheir own but this would have not bothered me. If this becomes a repeated issue maybe drop a comment card or speak tothe store managment about possibly purchasing more of the specialcarts since they seem to have a high demand for them. Off topic, but what does bother me is the people that wait while youare loading stuff into your car so they can have your parking spacewhen you leave. Lets just say I take my time :)
First off, these novelty carts can't be cheap. If lost, the cost hitsthe bottom line and translates to higher prices passed on to thecustomer. Although, I would have been perturbed I think the workerhandled it with a sense of professionalism to the best of her abilitywithout suggesting an ulterior motive.
I've been looking at this for what seems like days (even though it'sonly been one), and I can't make up my mind. It's a good letter, butI'm not sure about writing a complaint. The one thing I agree on is that I don't like when a cart collectorfollows me to my car. I put the bags on the back seat, and if I don'tarrange them properly, the contents are all over the floor by the timeI get home. So I don't want to be rushed or have someone standingover me. I don't complain about it though because I know they're justtrying to be helpful. If an employee actually chased me to my carasking for the cart, I think I would tell them that I would leave itin the cart return when I was finished, and they could pick it upthere. I would ask them to please not stand next to my car and waitbecause it would make me feel rushed. I think a rational person wouldunderstand and back off. In this case, I think it was probably a one-time thing and notsomething that happens all the time. The employee probably wanted tograb the cart before someone else did. It's too bad she didn't lookaround first to see if there were any other carts available. I'msurprised she didn't think of that. While feedback is good, and this letter is certainly well written, Idon't think I would have sent it. If something like this happenedagain, then I would be more motivated to complain. But, Casmly, Idon't see anything wrong with writing the letter, especially the wayit was written. It's been a long time since I went shopping with achild, so I also want to say that if I had to deal with that too, Imight feel differently. In fact, I would definitely be more annoyed.
This has actually happened to me, but with regular carts, not just thespecial ones. There are a couple of baggers/cart collectors that arechallenged, and though they mean well, they will sometimes standbehind me while I unload my groceries and ask if they can have mycart. I always tell them that I will put the cart away after I amdone, that I will be a minute putting in my groceries and my kids.Sometimes they leave me alone, sometimes they still hover. I just goabout my business. If they are still around when I am done, I pass thecart over to them. You shouldn't have rushed. I would have told the girl "Fine, but I amgoing to be a minute", and then just taken your sweet time putting thegroceries in at your lesiure. She can't make you hurry up. You allowedyour self to feel rushed. Had she continued to badger you for the cart, then you could have toldher to go look for another one.
Be glad they aren't like one of my local grocery stores. They don'tlet you take the car carts out of the store, so when you are doneshopping the put your groceries in a regular cart and you have totransfer your kid into the other cart.
I would find this irritating as well, not letter writing irritating,but speak to the manager irritating. However, it's certainly yourchoice to handle this as you see fit which, in this cases is writing aletter. From your replies, it seems they are taking this complaint seriously,as they should. Even if it just results in a short talk with theemployee about why this was not the best way to handle thissituation. I had a problem at my local supermarket. When gathering up the cartsin the lot, this one employee would "stage" them in the handicappedparking spots thus eliminating a spot when there are only 4 to beginwith. I spoke to the manager about this and the practice stopped.
As was pointed out by PlanetFeedback below, yes, I've had time to"cool down". It's been almost exactly a day now and I'm still asannoyed with what happened as I was yesterday. Obviously I realizedthis wasn't something to make a scene over, I didn't say anything tothe employee as I knew she had a customer waiting. But, as I left inmy car I became more and more annoyed with the fact that I had chosento go into Publix and spend my money there. There is absolutely noreason I should have been chased out the door by an employee for mycart and I should most certainly not have been told that there wasanother customer waiting on the cart. I felt that this situation wasmuch the same as a waiter handing me dessert then immediately tellingme he'd clear the table so the next customer could have it. If my letter had been written in anger as many of you suggest, I wouldnot have taken the time to compliment them on all of the goodexperiences I've had with them. I would not have acknowledged thefact that I believe the employee thought she was doing the rightthing. Believe me, I've seen plenty of letters on here that werewritten in anger and mine isn't one of them. I was called by Corporate yesterday and they called back this morningto ask for a local number so that the manager here could call me. Ipolitely declined to have him call me and explained to the woman thatmy intent was to simply make them aware of the situation. I do notbelieve it was ok to make a customer feel as if they are being rushedout the door to make way for a new customer.
Why didn't you point out the available car cart to the employee whofollowed you to your car? Perhaps she didn't notice it because shewas worried about the customer who wanted your cart so badly. Myguess is the customer who wanted your cart was very demanding, andrather than have a scene in the store, the employee said she wouldwait on you to finish with your cart. I have had to follow people outto their cars many times for those electric wheelchairs because peopleget so nasty when there are none available. Sure, the employee couldhave told the other customer to make do with what was available, but Iimagine that would have become an ugly scene, just like it would be ifI told people to make do and use the regular wheelchair we hadavailable instead of the electric ones. Maybe you should be glad the employee took it upon herself to go outthere. If she had not, maybe that customer would have followed youout and then you would have really felt rushed and annoyed.
I have customers that come in my store everyday and complain aboutsomething trivial. The top two best ones are: The store is too big. The shelves are too tall. If the store shelves werent that tall, the store would be evenlarger. Sometimes you just let them go in one ear and out the other, and laughabout them later. Good Day
I think you are correct in your assumption that the employee thoughtshe was doing the right thing. She was trying to be helpful to anothercustomer who wanted the cart, and it would also have saved you thetrouble of returning it. I can also see how it might have been alittle annoying (I don't think it would have annoyed me, but that'sjust me). But couldn't you have simply told the employee "I'll bringit back when I'm done?" It would have (hopefully) given her a cue toback off, and saved you the annoyance of having her stand over youwaiting for the cart.
Sometimes we really need to wait to write a letter of complaint...thisis one of them. Had you waited and written this a few days afterward you would seethat you over reacted to this incident. This employee did two things for two customers...she was going to takethe cart back for you and then give it to another customer waiting forit. If anything I would be thanking her for what she did as it saved you atrip to the cart corral. Instead you acted as if she was stalking you throughout the store andthen pounced on your cart before you could get your groceries out ofit. I would think seriously about recinding this complaint and insteadwrite a letter saying you over reacted and realized that this employeewas instead giving good customer service.
I read your letter three times trying to see what made you upsetenough to write. I'm still looking for the answer. I shop at Publix in Boynton Beach. I have never found anothersupermarket that treated their customers as well. Every employee Ihave encountered, has been friendly, helpful and courteous. Did the employee tell you to hurry up? Did they physically chase youout? Did they stand over you in an intimidating manner? It sounds tome like they were simply helping a customer who asked for assistance. You are totally over reacting. Hopefully the party receiving yourletter will not try to change the wonderful qualities of Publixemployees.
My first reaction when I read this letter was "Oh for the loveof...why is this such a big deal?" But then I re-read the letter andyour responses, and I see where you're coming from. And I think this would've bothered me too. If it had been just me, Iprobably wouldn't have cared that much. But if I had my son with me, Iwouldn't necessarily want someone hovering over me while I tried tounstrap Mr. Toddler from the cart then tried to strap him into the carseat, unload my groceries without all my junk tumbling around in thetrunk, etc. I think there was probably better way to go about this then chasingyou down the parking lot (like a stalker).
she hadn't have run out of the store at me, then told me there was acustomer waiting. Sorry, but in my mind I envision the customerinside looking at her watch, tapping her foot, waiting for the cart.
I know that shopping and unloading groceries with kids can be a painin the butt sometimes which is why I changed my viewpoint on yourletter. I would've felt pressured to hurry, and hurrying is hardsometimes with kids. Just a general question: had you been by yourself, would you have beenas annoyed?
Those things are filthy. Do you really trust that they clean them? They are germ magnets for little kids.
I hate those stupid "kiddie carts" They are always broken somewhere(seats, belts, etc.) or they are outright filthy and to be honest,they are a pain to try and manuver in the aisles because they are soenormous! But regardless, I know it was annoying, esp. given the other cart youcame across in the lot, but I don't that she really meant anything byit and was just trying to ensure that a customer got the cart theywanted and she knew where yours was. I honestly don't think it was intentionally rude or malicious.
Honestly, I can't believe you wrote this letter. You must know thatthere are plenty of people who do abandon those kids' carts in theparking lot. Parents with little kids don't want to leave their kidunattended in the car, so they just leave the cart wherever they are. I don't find any problem at all with the store employee wanting to getthe cart from you when you were done. I just can't imagine someone having a complaint over this storeemployee doing what she did. The mind, it is boggled.
If they usually ask you if you need help, it is a natural extension tobe on the lookout for a cart that a new shopper may be able to use. To me the intention was only a good one and consistent with theireffort to provide excellent customer service. It also seems the store was very busy. There is no way they can keepthe lot clean of carts during such a period.
And is the perfect example of a situation where an employee is tryingto do something which benefits customers but completely wrecks anygoodwill due to the tone deaf nature of the interaction. Thanks for using PlanetFeedback!
Maranda B., You are correct. Little did he know his effort would bemisinterpreted. The employee thought he was helping you as well as the next shopper. Ihope the next shopper saw this act as it was intended. BillR.

Recent FIS NewsBelow you will find a listing of recent FIS News Find your newsAustrian Ski Jumping season If one nation dominated this Ski Jumping winter, it was the Austrians. Already at the season opening in Kuusamo (FIN), they won the team and individual competitions. At the start of the season it was Andreas Kofler who wore the yellow jersey of the World Cup leader for the first time in his career. Soon thereafter, Thomas Morgenstern reached top form and started his winning streak in Lillehammer which continued until the last competition before Christmas in Engelberg, that was won by Kofler again. It was clear at this point that the Austrians would be the ones to beat at the Four-Hills-Tournament. In Oberstdorf, Morgenstern won the first of the Four-Hills events as well as again in Innsbruck, which laid the foundation for first victory Tournament. After Wolfgang Loitzl and Andreas Kofler in the two years before, this was the third Austrian victory in a row. Simon Ammann's dream of winning the last big title that the Swiss has not won yet did not come true. But the Austrian team continued its impressive success and in Harrachov the Ski Flying specialist Martin Koch, who had his best season this winter, finally celebrated his first World Cup victory. After an injury, Gregor Schlierenzauer returned to shape in Ski Flying . The Tyrolean had suffered a knee injury and could not take part in the Four-Hills-Tournament. Just in time for the World Championships in Oslo, Schlierenzauer again won a World Cup competition. At the world's largest hill in Vikersund, he was unbeatable twice. His main rival was Norwegian Johan Remen Evensen, who set a new world record of 246.5 m there. At Oslo 2011, all five gold medals went to Austria. Morgenstern and Schlierenzauer put their stamp on the Championships by winning three gold medals each. Both team competitions were won by Austria, while Morgenstern and Schlierenzauer won the individual titles. With Daniela Iraschko also the ladies' competition was won by an Austrian athlete. To conclude the season, Morgenstern won the overall World Cup and Schlierenzauer the Ski Flying World Cup. So there was not much left for the other teams in the 2010/11 season. "It went great for me right from the beginning", said Morgenstern about his season. However, the shooting stars of the season did not come from Austria which raises hope for more balance next season. Kamil Stoch from Poland celebrated three World Cup victories and is the new Polish prospect after the retirement of Adam Malysz. The Germans, too, have a new jumper who can win World Cups: Severin Freund won twice and was on the podium five times. He is consistent, down-to-earth and might have a successful career ahead of him. Finland has Ville Larinto, who unfortunately tore his ACL at the Four-Hills-Tournament. Yet he is still young and with his victory in Kuopio showed that he can keep up with the Austrians. Altogether six nations won World Cup competitions this season. The 2010/11 season was the last one for some icons of Ski Jumping: With Janne Ahonen, Adam Malysz, Michael Uhrmann, Primoz Peterka and Andreas Küttel world champions, Olympic champions, Four-Hills-Tournament and overall World Cup winners ended their careers. These five athletes achieved a total of 250 podium results and almost 100 World Cup victories. They will leave a void, no question.

D'Artagnan buffalo are raised on vast pasture land in Canada and the U.S. to our exacting specifications on a 100% vegetarian diet, in a clean and natural environment, without the use of chemicals, hormones, antibiotics or steroids. These indigenous animals, technically bison (though we use the more common name buffalo), are raised with minimal human interaction, and are left alone to graze as they have done on for centuries.
Buffalo is the original free-range, good-for-you red meat. It is amazingly lean –leaner than beef, pork, turkey and even chicken—and never leaves a greasy taste in the mouth. This leanness allows it to cook quicker than beef and not shrink while cooking. Buffalo offers nutritionally-dense red meat with 25% to 30% more protein than beef, 25% less cholesterol and about half the calories. It is also high in iron and possesses a sweet, intense flavor.
Considered a game meat, though it never tastes gamey, buffalo is best prepared using lower temperatures than you would use for beef, and cooked rare to medium rare for best flavor and texture. The tenderloin is the most tender cut available, and can be butchered into steaks and medallions and grilled (remember to brush lightly with oil and use the cooler part of your grill), or roasted whole. We like the buffalo tenderloin so well that we simply season it with salt and pepper and let the natural, sweet flavor shine. But we will admit to occasionally topping with a bit of truffle butter!
"The full flavor and rich mouth feel of charred buffalo steaks, crunchy on the outside and silky inside, are intensified by a brawny, coffee-and-chile-based barbecue sauce. "
"Simply-seasoned buffalo meat is kicked up with a bourbon-and-adobo glaze then served atop a crunchy, yet tender, potato cake."
"Here's an elegant preparation of buffalo tenderloin that's easy to make at home, courtesy of Chef Philippe Ruiz of Miami's famed Biltmore Hotel."

Going Green: Gold's Gym Gets Rid of Paper Waste
By: Monica Tassoni
Updated: September 20, 2012
"People are using them to wipe down the equipment, they are using it to wipe off the sweat on their bodies, and we use a lot in the bathrooms." Said Terri Watkins of Gold's Gym.
And with a gym as busy as Gold's in Abilene, it can mean a lot of paper waste.
"Oh yea, we have a lot of paper waste for sure." Said Terri Watkins.
Until now. In an effort to reduce waste Gold's Gym made the decision to make a switch from paper towels to cloth towels. And they were happy to see find it was not an expensive transition.
"As far as cost goes, it comes out the same and if it helps the community, we are happy to do it." Said Terri Watkins.
So instead of throwing the towel away, these towels are washed and reused.
"It sets the example, I mean we are just one cog in the wheel. We can all do a little bit and if this is something we can do, we are happy to do it." Said Terri Watkins.

Series: What I Wish My Pastor Knew About... The Life of a Scientist
Andy Crouch examines the life of a scientist based on his experience of walking alongside his wife Catherine, an experimental physicist. That relationship has shown him that a life in science is a journey "into a set of virtues," of cultivating a specific character suited to the particular demands of research and investigation. Crouch's hope is to persuade pastors and others in the church to prayerfully support the scientific endeavor as a reflection of God's image in humankind as well as offers some suggestions for ministering to their needs.
Awe in Science
If we can understand the experiences of the people who work every day in the lab, our dialogues concerning science and religion will be far more fruitful.
Katharine Hayhoe: Evangelical Christian, Climate Scientist
As an Evangelical and a scientist, Katharine Hayhoe is already a member of a rare breed. As a climate change researcher who is also married to an evangelical Christian pastor, she is nearly one of a kind.
Did David Hume "Banish" Miracles?
"I flatter myself," Hume triumphantly proclaimed, "that I have discovered an argument . . . which, if just, will, with the wise and learned, be an everlasting check to all kinds of superstitious delusion, and consequently, will be useful as long as the world endures."
Series: Divine Action in the World
In this talk, Professor Plantinga addresses the fact that many contemporary thinkers—including many theologians—believe that God cannot perform miracles, providentially guide history, or interact in the lives of people, as these activities would be contrary to science. Plantinga, on the other hand, makes the case that this popular view is mistaken; excluding divine action in the world is not a central feature of natural science itself, but a philosophical or theological preference that has been added on to science (and can just as readily be removed). Plantinga concludes that it is completely logical to accept the miracles of the Bible and support contemporary science.
The Beauty of Being a Scientist and a Christian
I am a Christian. I believe that God is the ultimate reality and that the world, including me, was created by God. But this is not just an idle affirmation, a faith statement to be recited in church on Sunday.
Being Fruitful
Many people use the words "dominion" and "subdue" as "unconditional permission to use the world as they please." I came to realize, like many, that such an interpretation is contradicted by the rest of the Bible.
Series: The God Who Acts: Robert John Russell on Divine Intervention and Divine Action
Does God need to supernaturally "intervene" in order to bring about the diversity of life that we observe today? Is that kind of action different from God's ordinary action? We begin our three-part series with Robert John Russell's description of how views of divine action have changed throughout history, excerpted from his book Cosmology: From Alpha to Omega. Part 2 addresses why "intervention" in the natural world is a problem philosophically, theologically, and scientifically; and Part 3 explains Russell's own theory of divine action in the natural world.
A BioLogos Response to William Dembski, Part 1
We think that God created all living organisms, including humans, through the evolutionary process. But acceptance of creation through evolution does not mean that we reject the notion of a miracle-working God. On the contrary...
Series: Science as an Instrument of Worship
In this brief series (taken from a 2009 paper), Jennifer Wiseman uses an excerpt from the famous hymn "How Great Thou Art," to explain why the study of God's creation can lead Christ's followers into meaningful worship and overcome the obstacles which impede true praise. Creation as encountered through our senses is pondered by our minds, which flows into wonder-filled songs from the soul. She further explains how knowledge of creation will help Christians to address the moral dilemmas of science, and she encourages all to see the process of scientific inquiry as a means to discover God's truth.
Series: Recovering the Doctrine of Creation: A Theological View of Science
Robert C. Bishop explains that many believe two things about creation: that the universe was created out of nothing by God and that he accomplished this in six days. This overly simplistic view does not do the robust Doctrine of Creation (DoC) justice, and it unnecessarily hinders much of the dialogue between evolution and Christianity. Bishop "recovers" the DoC by exploring the limitations of creation, God's sovereignty in the process, God's Trinitarian activity and ongoing purpose for his creatures, and the salvation of creation in space and time.
Meditation on Light
I became a scientist because over and over, when I was a child, a teenager, and a college student, I experienced the sheer delight that comes with understanding the amazing physical mechanisms that are at work in our universe.
Series: Miracles and Science
In this five section series, Ard Louis explores the relationship between science and miracles. He indicates the self-imposed limitations of science to discover knowledge while warning against the God-of-the-Gaps explanations. Then, he explains the two types of miracles seen in Scripture: those that are divine timing and those that are violations of the natural. Overall, God sustains natural processes, but, as the master composer, he has the ability to perform miracles as well.
Stewards of God's (Changing?) World
Interestingly, I find this sort of cynicism about climate change especially prevalent among Christians. Why is this?
A Tough Mind and a Tender Heart
I recently read some published sermons by the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. The depth and breadth of his eloquent defense of truth and justice are profoundly inspiring. My favorite of his sermons begins with a verse from Matthew: "Be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves."
Is there room in evolutionary creation to believe in miracles?
God acts in more than one way in the natural world. God sustains the regular patterns of the physical world, but sometimes chooses to act outside of those patterns. God's regular patterns are what scientists describe as natural laws (like gravity or photosynthesis). God's actions outside those patterns are usually called supernatural actions or miracles (like raising someone from the dead). Evolutionary creationists believe in the miracles of the Bible and that God can do miracles today. Evolutionary creationists also believe that God is just as involved in the regular patterns of the universe as in miracles.

Does Resurrection Contradict Science?
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.

The primary reason why a Christian should consider science as a career is because it offers unique opportunities to worship God.
Science as an Instrument of Worship
NASA astronomer Jennifer Wiseman asserts that studying creation can show us the nature of God; science can inform us of what we need to do as stewards of God's creation; understanding the natural world gives us a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ; and science can give us a better understanding of ourselves. This essay was presented at the November 2009 Theology of Celebration Workshop.
Series: Searching for Motivated Belief
Over the next few months, with permission from Yale University Press, BioLogos will offer edited versions of chapters from John Polkinghorne's best books, Belief in God in an Age of Science and Theology in the Context of Science, in order to help readers delve more deeply into some of his most important ideas.

text: New Zealand's world-leading fisheries management will be in the spotlight tomorrow at an international forum in the USA. Michael Arbuckle, General Manager of Fisheries Management for the Ministry of Fisheries has been invited to deliver the keynote address at the 'Emerging Strategies for Improving Fisheries Management' conference taking place at Del Mar, California. "When we brought the quota management system (QMS) in, nearly 20 years ago, it was a revolutionary approach. It has proven integral in New Zealand avoiding the massive over-investment in fishing vessels and over-fishing that has destroyed commercial fisheries in many parts of the world during the last three decades," says Mr Arbuckle. Ninety-three fish species or species complexes comprising some 550 individual stocks are now managed within the QMS. The commercial fishery is worth more than $1 billion annually to the New Zealand economy and provides direct employment for over 10,000 people. The Ministry of Fisheries hosts a steady stream of visitors from overseas eager to learn more about the QMS and there is international interest in New Zealand's fisheries management strategies.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, holed up inside the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, predicts that his situation will be resolved within a year.
Assange is hiding in the embassy to avoid being arrested and extradited to Sweden, where he is wanted for questioning for alleged sex crimes. Assange claims that the accusations are part of a plot to later extradite him to the United States to face charges for publishing thousands of classified cables.
Either diplomacy or abandonment of the case by the Swedes will bring an end to his ordeal in six to 12 months, Assange said in a lengthy interview with Ecuador's Gamma TV.
Ecuador has granted diplomatic asylum to Assange, but the United Kingdom does not recognize it and vows to carry through with his arrest.
In the meantime, Assange says he will keep fighting and WikiLeaks will continue to operate.
The website will soon publish more than 2 million Syrian e-mails that it says will shed light on the civil war there.
Assange reiterated his claims that he is being persecuted by the United States and its allies and that he would not get a fair trial if he ended up in the United States. The argument persuaded Ecuador to grant him asylum.
Swedish authorities have denied that they would place Assange in any situation where his rights would not be protected, and have insisted he is wanted in connection with criminal questions, not political ones.
"Political persecution of me and my organization exists, and that is enough (for asylum), but if we look at the broader context, Ecuador is correct in showing its values in this case," Assange told Gamma TV, which aired the interview Thursday night. "Not just by granting asylum to me, but also for granting asylum to any person who deserves it."
Critics say that Assange and Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa are using each other -- Assange using Ecuador to avoid criminal questioning, and Ecuador using Assange to make a political statement.

Hybrid Power
Helping to Leave A Greener Footprint
Eaton is global leader in the development and manufacturing of complete hybrid power systems for commercial vehicles. Our hybrid system helps cities and businesses run cleaner, greener, more responsible commercial fleets. With nearly one third of all fuel being consumed by commercial vehicles, making the transition to Eaton's hybrid power system means cities and businesses can significantly reduce the amount of fuel they consume and emission they produce while also reducing their overall fleet operating costs. It's a decision that's as economical as it is ecological.A hybrid is defined as a vehicle that uses two or more distinct power sources to move. To create a hybrid commercial vehicle, Eaton combines a vehicle's traditional internal combustion engine with an electric motor to move the vehicle forward and then through regenerative braking the system recharges itself.
Eaton's hybrid power systems provide their greatest value in commercial vehicles that burn tremendous amounts of fuel by stopping and starting and trucks and buses that idle at work sites to run accessories or tools.
Customers using Eaton hybrid systems globally have accumulated more than 200 million miles of service, reducing their fuel consumption by 8 million gallons and harmful emissions by 80,000 metric tons.
Electric Hybrid
Our patented electric hybrid power system uses a parallel configuration that maintains the vehicle's conventional drivetrain layout and uses patented controls to blend engine torque with electric torque to move the vehicle.
Hybrid Applications
Each system significantly reduces vehicle fuel consumption and emissions output, and provide other benefits like reduced maintenance and brake replacements costs and noise reduction at work sites.
Media Center

Managelogs Handles Apache Logs
The managelogs program manages the Apache Web server generated log files. For version 2.0.0 the developers made some changes to the build.
The managelogs process now uses autoconf and automake. Sourceforge now contains a Mercurial repository for the source code.
Managelogs, like the rotatelogs and cronolog programs, is the answer to the problem that logfiles eventually fill up and need to be purged of their oldest data. The open source program uses the Apache server's capability to write errors and access log files through a pipe to another process. The tool thereby gains flexibility by providing compression at runtime and simultaneously generating multiple output channels with different configurations.
Managelogs allows setting multiple parameters for log rotation or purging. Rotation also allows triggering an external command, typically to gather background statistics. The tool maintains its state across stops, starts and restarts.
Managelogs is under Apache 2.0 license. Further details, tarballs and RPM packages are on the project homepage.

Harry Styles to go bald for charity?
There are three things that really mean something to us in life: 1) Our mum 2) Ham and 3) Harry Styles' hair.
So imagine our horror when Fearne Cotton produced a pair of clippers on last night's Children In Need, challenging the One Direction heartthrob to hack off his curls for charity.
Following the boys' second performance of the night - Little Things - she sidled over to Harry and declared: "So I've heard that you, Harry, will shave your head for Children In Need!"
Although part of us wanted to hide behind the sofa in fear for Harry's famous locks, the journalist bit in our brain sort of thought it served Harry right for giving a remarkably bad interview to Fearne earlier in the evening - one word answers are not good enough for live telly, Styles! She probably waddled over to Argos during the bit where she was supposed to be taking a 'sit down, you're pregnant' break.
Anyway - back to Harry's terrified expression on stage. The poor teenager was clearly torn between preserving his trademark curls - a source of joy across the world - and being a nice person for charity - he was never going to be able to say no to Children In Need.
Wracking his brains for the right thing to say (while Louis shouted: "He did say that, I heard him say that!"), Harry had no choice but to mumble: "Sure, go for it if you want."
What a hero! Just when we thought we couldn't fancy Sir Styles anymore.
And then the joke was on Fearney - clearly taken aback that Harry had agreed to lose his hair, she began backtracking, shrieking: "I can't! I can't be held responsible for that! Could you imagine?"

BMW creates midgrade M Performance Automobiles line
BMW's M Performance line will offer buyers many of the interior and exterior trim upgrades, without all the engine and suspension tuning.
BMW will offer a new product range starting this spring for customers who want the M Division look without all if the tradeoffs for comfort.
BMW M Performance Automobiles will offer engine variants, enhanced agility and more precision on the road, according to the company. BMW will present the M Performance Automobiles for the first time at the Geneva motor show in March.
"We are targeting our efforts at customers looking for more emotionality and more performance but who don't want to forgo everyday usability of their cars," said Frederick Nitschke, president of BMW M GmbH.
The range will include a variety of models, Nitschke said, as well as gasoline and diesel engines. BMW also says its xDrive all-wheel-drive system will play a role in the models.
This lightly tuned series of vehicles take inspiration from the 1980 BMW M535i. It impressed customers with extra power, tuned chassis technology and a subtly modified design. It wasn't until 1985 that the powered-up M5 hit the scene.
The BMW move is similar to Audi's S line strategy, which offers buyers the styling and interior upgrades of the R series of cars without all of the suspension and powertrain changes.

Before you put up the lights and decorations, it may be prudent to consider childproofing if you're planning to host guests with young children.
Parents will likely have their own homes kid-proofed. The danger lies in the homes of friends and family who do not have young tykes running underfoot on a regular basis.
Here are some helpful hints culled from Victoria moms and grandmothers to make a house as safe as possible over the holidays:
It's a no-brainer to make sure the lower branches of a tree are festooned only with durable ornaments. Put sizable ornaments there - avoid small items, as very young children may put them in their mouths and choke. If you're displaying vintage ornaments, remember that some date back to before there were lead standards in the paint used on them. Many people decorate trees with popcorn and cranberries. If the strands are strong and the children active, they can pull the tree over simply by repeated tugging (see below).
Rambunctious children and top-heavy trees are a bad combination. Some tree stands have holes in their bases so they can be screwed to the floor. If the thought of holes in the floor after the holidays doesn't appeal to you, consider one fastened to the ceiling or the wall behind the tree. Use a fishing line of appropriate strength as a fastener so it's almost invisible.
The majority of trees have lights. It may be a good idea to have the power bar halfway up the back of the tree, so children can't play with it. The bar is also more susceptible to spills on the ground. Don't use outdoor lights on an indoor tree - they burn hotter than indoor lights. The hotter bulbs can burn a toddler's hands or dry a tree enough to set it on fire.
Lit candles are a part of the season. Candles on the mantle and dining table are good. Candles on coffee and side tables, not so much. Simmering potpourri liquids can burn if spilled. The contents may smell sweet, but if ingested can cause a child to vomit or worse.
A night light is a wise option in a room where overnight guests will sleep. Night lights in hallways benefit both young and old as they try to find their way around an unfamiliar house at night.
Apart from a smoke detector, it may be a good investment to place a carbon-monoxide detector and fire extinguisher in every bedroom. If the bedrooms are on the upper floors, a foldable ladder that can be deployed out the window in case of fire may be a good addition to the house.
Poinsettia and holly are toxic if ingested, for pets as well as children.
All pill bottles and medication should be securely put away. Keep them out of night tables, where they are within reach of curious youngsters exploring a new house. Put cleaning supplies in bathrooms and kitchens up high, since many are toxic.
Falls are a major source of injury throughout the year. It's a good idea to buy portable gates to restrict access to stairs. The gates can also keep children out of certain rooms where there are dangers - or gifts.
One mother recounted how she made a stocking stuffed with treats for the new family dog. The next year, she put stocking up again the night before Christmas.
The next morning, the family found all the stockings had been pulled off the mantle by the family pet looking for treats. The moral of the story? Put stockings high up on the mantle.
Typically, friends and family gather over a drink or two. Take alcoholic drinks with you when you leave a room. Young children can mistakenly drink clear alcoholic beverages, thinking they are water or juice.
Also, be wary if serving punch. The story of the stonecold-sober adults in the living room and the gaggle of drunken kids in the basement is hilarious in the telling, but dealing with vomiting children is not funny at all.
Some pets don't do well when there are a lot of strangers around. Find them a quiet room away from all the noise. The image of a frenzied pet rushing from room to room, chased by a visiting dog or children, is only funny in movies.
Be aware that some toddlers will grab at anything. The corners of a tablecloth dangling down the side of a table can be especially appealing. Unfortunately, a grab at the tablecloth can result in dishes, silverware, glasses or even the Christmas turkey ending up on top of the child.
Whether your fireplace is wood or gas, it's a good idea to get a sturdy screen to keep small children at a safe distance - the glass on a gas fireplace can become very hot.
Perform annual maintenance before lighting a fire. When cleaning out ashes, place them in a non-combustible container away from the house. One homeowner placed the ashes in a cardboard box on the back porch. The still-warm embers set the cardboard box alight and burned the house down.

Honda expands recall for faulty headlights
Honda is expanding a recall launched in March to fix a headlight problem to include the Civic and Pilot.
About 820,000 vehicles have been added to the recall, which now covers 2002-2003 Civic sedans and 2004-2005 Pilot SUVs.
The problem is with the headlight-wiring system, which could cause the low beams not to work. The low visibility could result in a crash, though Honda says no crashes have been reported yet.
When announced in March, the recall included 550,000 CR-V SUVs from 2002-2004 and Pilots from 2003.
Honda says it will inspect the headlight wiring and the headlight switch, replacing them if necessary. Owners can call Honda's customer service line at (800) 999-1009 for more information.
This is the second time this week Honda has expanded a recall. On Oct. 1, Honda added cars to its power-steering recall, in which hoses can crack and lead to a fire.

Very soon the demographics of America will see a major change: the European-American majority will become the new minority.
Welcoming America's new faces is an opportunity and challenge for U.S. churches, and one Jose Morales takes seriously. He's an executive with the Disciples of Christ, which is committed to planting and transforming 2, 000 congregations by 2020.
In this interview Jose gives a wake-up call to established churches to be more welcoming to immigrants – and tells us how to do it.
Watch the Full Program.

Click here to visit Turnaround 20/20
Jose Morales has a passion for helping older congregations welcome new people – especially immigrants. Here are my notes from the interview:
New Life from New People
One of the biggest gifts the influx of immigrants into the U-S Church has given is to to energize it! Jose points to the sparks of life, that we always see with you people, that are writ large with the presence of today's immigrants.
Partners Not Landlords
It's common for immigrant congregations to rent space from established churches – but the landlord-tenant dynamics often leave immigrants feeling like second class citizens – or worse. Jose says true partners are needed.
Structure Is for Mission Not Structure
It's a common scenario: the new mission invests in a structure, then nurtures that structure, when the real reason for a structure is to nurture mission. In what ways does your place do that?
About Jose Morales
Born to missionary parents, José F. Morales Jr. currently resides in Denver, CO, where he serves as the Executive Regional Minister of the Central Rocky Mountain Region of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). José is a frequent keynote speaker/preacher and a freelance writer, and plays in mean game of ping-pong. He's also a house music DJ.
Books Jose Recommends:
Many Colors – Soong-Chan Rah
The Next Evangelicalism – Soong-Chan Rah
What's Theology Got to Do with It?- Anthony Robinson
Sponsors I Mentioned
Turnaround 20/20 – Learn from experts who have conquered obstacles to growth and watched God turn things around.

Paget's disease results in enlarged and deformed bones. It is a chronic (long-term) condition. Any bone in the body can be affected. However, the most common sites are the spine, skull, pelvis, thighs, and lower legs. The disease does not usually spread to other normal bones.
Paget's disease is caused by a malfunction in bone formation. Normally, bones are constantly being broken down by cells called osteoclasts. They are then rebuilt by cells called osteoblasts. With Paget's disease, bones are broken down abnormally fast, and new bone replacement is loose and bulky, instead of strong and compact. These poorly formed bones may become weak. They also may bend over time.
The exact cause of this bone malformation is unknown. It is associated with family history. Some experts believe that Paget's disease may be triggered early in life by a viral infection.
Risk Factors
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition. Risk factors for Paget's disease include:
- Family history of Paget's disease, especially in a parent, sibling, or child
- Race: Anglo-Saxon, European
- Age: 40 or older
- In United States, residence in northern states
In the early stages, most people have no noticeable symptoms. In later stages, symptoms may include:
- Swelling or deformity of a limb
- Increased head size
- Bowing of a limb
- Curvature of the spine
- Chronic bone pain, especially legs, hips, or spine
- Frequent fractures
- Problems with walking or gait
- Headaches, facial pain, or hearing loss (when the skull bones are affected)
- Swollen or painful joints due to damaged joint cartilage
- Numbness, tingling, pain, or weakness from pressure on nerves
Depending on the bone site, Paget's disease may result in:
- Arthritis, usually osteoarthritis
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- High calcium in blood
- Kidney stones
- Hearing problems (common)
- Dental problems
- Rarely: eye problems, congestive heart failure, bone cancer (sarcoma)
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. He or she will do a physical exam. Tests may include:
It is best to begin treatment as soon as possible. Treatment options include:
Medications may include:
- Pain medicine—such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
- Bisphosphonates—usually by tablet or by injection
- Calcitonin—administered by injection or nasal spray
Surgery may be required if you have one of the following conditions:
- Bone fracture
- Severe degenerative arthritis
- Bone deformity
Recommendations include:
- Calcium, usually about 1,000-1,500 mg per day
- Adequate exposure to sunshine to promote vitamin D production in the skin (but, limit time in the sun to prevent sun burning, wrinkling, and aging)
- Intake of adequate vitamin D, usually about 400 mg per day (older people may need more)
- Regular exercise to maintain skeletal health, joint mobility, and normal body weight
- Avoidance of excess mechanical stress on involved bones
- A splint for an area at high risk for fracture
