Two local business leaders have been appointed as the 2012-13 Robins School of Business executives-in-residence at the University of Richmond.

background image repeat has border around each image
Hi. My first post so please be patient. I'm trying to set up a background similar to "#12: Converting a Photoshop Mockup: Part Two, Episode One " but each one of the images has a white border. I used a .png file. Is there a css command to remove the borders or did I do something wrong in Corel? Thanks for your help and I'm proud to be a new member!
Hi terry, it's always best to provide a link to the page or test page, or set up a quick testbed in codepen or jsfiddle or similar.
My best guess is that the png has the border as part of the image...
i agree with wolfcry911 : any link ? or maybe all your png's already have some border...
have you tried in your css file :
img { border: none 0}

Tongues are wagging among National Security operatives especially within the Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) over how, one William Attiku, an aide or a body guard of Mr. Alfred Agbesi Woyome, the NDC?s self-styled financier who was given a booty of GH?52 million judgment debt finds himself in the security hierarchy of the nation.
Mr. Attiku, a claimed US Marine, was seen with the presidential security team in Togo when President John Evans Atta Mills visited the West African country recently to have bilateral discussions with the Togolese president who has also dissolved his father?s RPT party and formed a new one.
He was also seen at the National Prayer and Thanksgiving service held at the Independence Square recently.
His involvement in various functions is causing some kind of apprehension since it is believed among the intelligent officers that the man in question has not only a dodgy character but also a questionable one.
According to our information, the grumbling of the security officers have reached a crescendo and plans are advanced to alert authorities to smoke him out before he damages the reputation of the President.
This paper has gathered that Mr. Attiku who is said to have a questionable and dodgy character parades himself as a security intelligence and works in collaboration with one Ex-W.O Nicholas Gbeku of the National Security.
Furthermore, this paper gathered that during various and important functions, William Attiku who was arrested alongside with Mr. Woyome on that fateful day and was released immediately, most often carries himself as an operative of the National Security.
Scores of security officers calling for his removal from the team revealed how William Attiku was constantly seen at the premises of the National Security Annex with his pal, Nicholas Gbeku.
?Some of us are getting worried and are asking why was this guy allowed to join Presidential security? If the National Security wants to recruit people, they should check the background of the people. This guy has a questionable character and must be checked or removed,? a serious minded officer told this paper.
The agitation among the security operatives reveal that the way and manner Woyome?s boy metamorphosed to a security team of President Mills is a source of worry to them.
Another source at the BNI told this paper that frantic moves are being made to smoke him out because he has a character that is inconsistent with what the security operatives do.
?We are worried and want to know whether he is part of president?s security team?" the source asked.
It is recalled that during the trial of Mr. Woyome, William Attiku is seen at the court?s premises protecting him (Woyome) which has set tongues wagging.

Husker Shields honored for basketball excellence
All season the Achilles heel for the Nebraska basketball team has been scoring - you know, the object of the game.
Big Red, owners of the worst scoring offense in the league at just under 59 points per game. But Nebraska may have found a remedy for their woes in freshman Shavon Shields. The rookie from Olathe, Kansas earned Big Ten freshman of the week honors Monday for two stellar performances against Purdue and Penn State. Shields put up 18 in Wednesday's loss to the Boilermakers which was his career high until he went silly Saturday afternoon in Happy Valley shooting 10 for 11 from the floor on his way to a 29 point afternoon. With the honor, Shields becomes the first Cornhusker freshman to win the weekly award since Toney McCray in the 2008-2009 season. |

Movie review: 'Phil Spector' nearly an ideal HBO movie
Phil Spector remains an enigma after his jailing in 2009 for the 2003 death of the actress Lana Clarkson, who died after a late-night gunshot wound. He's in prison today. Was it suicide, an accident, or murder? Although I have no opinion on the crime, I found the film uncanny because I have a connection, eerie and meaningless but undeniable, to Spector and the means of death.By Roger Ebert , April 05, 2013

While in New Zealand in the past, and on this current trip, there is a very large movement towards keeping Farmers Markets authentic. That simply means only products sold by the producers themselves, or the growers, the ranchers, the fishers, and the brewers only selling what they grow, raise, catch, or brew. Some markets allow reselling of almost anything, and others are pure farmers markets.
I have been reading in trade journals about maybe an over abundance of farm markets, with farmers having to go to more markets and yet making less in sales. Is reverting back to a pure market the answer?
I, being a grower with my own farm market and only selling what I produce, lean towards the pure side.
What are some other views?
P.S. We are having a blast down here attending farm markets with so much to choose from. And testing the wines and rivers teaming with fish.
The point of farmers markets is for consumers to support their regional farms and gain knowledge about agriculture. Farmers need time to be on their farms. Vendors need to be accountable to what they promote and sell. If resellers are needed for variety of products, to keep the market fresh and competetive to draw customers in to keep shopping, the best thing market managers can do to stay true to a markets mission is with vendor signage that indicates the "farm" they support to develop their value-added product. This provides customers with a cross check method so they stay true to supporting who they want for an authentic market experience. Without doing this traceback, for food safety and to tell an ag story about ones product, customers are being deceived and "farmers" markets are at risk.
Producer only markets. In my area of Wisconsin almost EVERY small town market is producer only. There are some crafts, but the requirement is that they be made of local materials. This usually means wool items from sheep farmers, etc.
There is a downside to this though. The local Hmong groups do NOT follow the producer only model. They routinely sell to each other to make sure NONE of them run out of any product. I very mich dispise this. They will also send out scouts around the market to find out what everyone is charging. They then lower their price to be cheaper than everyone else at the market. This has led to people not listing their prices which requires customers to ask. This is ok for established vendors, but really stifles new comers.
In the end I really think producer only markets are the way to go. If reselling is allowed then it is no different from a supermarket/grocery store. I have also found that the markets allow non-producers/arts and crafts are less profitable to the point of not being worth attending.
I think the key factor for many areas isn't the mix of vendors, but the number of markets. In my area, there are too many markets. It seems like every town has one, which would be great if everyone went to a farmers market, but most people don't. So rather than 5 markets doing well, 1 or 2 might do well and the rest don't really have enough customer traffic to justify continuing to be a vendor.
Have been selling at urban farmers markets for over 35 years-its the only way we sell our produce. We have found that when the farmers market has crafts and "events", the crowd does not buy much produce. Is a farmers market for entertainment or to purchase food? It's impossible for people to buy produce when they have a cup of coffee in one hand and a doughnut in the other. When I have done a foot count vs. white bag count, I have found that the purchases are reduced when there are crafts and greatly reduced when there are events. Producer only- what a laugh- at least in whatever market the Southeast Asians ( Hmong) are selling at. Managers prefer to look the other way as their main interest is bringing in money for the owners of the market...FILL EVERY SPACE is their motto. Support local agriculture...NOPE. I wish the University would get these Hmong to do some seminars on how to get 22 bushes of green beans from a 10 foot row! AND how to get all that lovely produce in May! United States farmers are way behind the third world immigrants. Yes, we NEED authenic urban farmers markets. Authentic farmers are the only ones who can educate the American public about where they food comes from-crafters, wholesalers, resellers, musicians-cannot. OK, I'll get off my soap box.
Producer only is what these markets should be. If a vendor runs out of a product, they should refer the customer to a producer that has what they need. The act of buying, then reselling removes them as a producer. If they wish to conduct business in this fashion, they need to set up at a flea market. I'm looking to open a farmer's market, and it will be producers only. There is a large enough share for all to make a living, but farmers(producers) need to support each other and protect the share that they have put their lives into. Honesty is what we base our lives and business on. If the market managers don't support transparity and enforce the market rules, perhaps a true farmers market should open next door. If true producers start to not show up at their market, they will notice the drop in monies collected. If not then , they will when a compeating market opens. Don't lower your standards to meet theirs, make them raise theirs to meet yours. Say something at your market and hold them accountable. If producers do this in-mass, they will listen.

The House met at 9 o'clock, A. M. The reading of the Journal was dispensed with.
Mr. Williams, of Union, presented the claim of Andrew Keep.
Mr. HIGBEE and Mr. BRITTON also presented papers, the former on Temperance and the latter a remonstrance of 1,200 citizens of De Kalb against the Fifteenth Article amendment.
Mr. HUNT, from the Committee on Ways and Means, reported on certain military disbursements by the Governor, that he acted properly, under authority.
Mr. BRECKINRIDGE, from the Committee on Rights and Privileges, returned the petition of citizens of Jefferson, praying for the release of a certain school officer from the repayment of certain school moneys stolen, recommending that its consideration be indefinitely postponed. The report was concurred in.
He also returned Mr. Davidson's bill [H. R. 291] defining who shall be eligible to vote, etc., recommending that it be indefinitely postponed. The report was concurred in.
Mr. HIGBEE, from the Committee on y and Township Business, returned Mr. Corry's bill [H. R. 289] providing that no elector shall vote for Supervisor who do not reside in his District, recommending that it be laid on the table.
The report was concurred in.
Mr. BRITTON, from the same committee, returned Mr. Wildmaux bill [H. B. 221] for Seldon's book-keeping in the offices of County Auditors and Treasures, recommending that it lay on the table.
The report was concurred in.
Mr TABIN, from the same committee, returned Mr. VATER'S bill [H. B. 319] to repeal the bill of March 4, 1869, repealing
Mr. STANTON, from the special Committee on Committee Rooms, reported-ample accommodations for committee rooms in the Capitol Building, in charge of Mr. Slocum.
These reports were severally concurred in.
Mr. COFFROTH (by unanimous consent) presented the remonstrance of 2,000 citizens of the counties of Ohio and Switzerland, against the ratification of the 15th article amendment, and instructing their Senator, Mr. Bellamy, and their Representative, Mr. Stewart, to resist said ratification or resign.
Mr. STANTON (obtaining leave) submitted the following:
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring therein), That a Joint Committee of five, consisting of three on the part of the House and two on the part of the Senate, be appointed to visit the National Asylum at Dayton, Ohio, with a view to the transfer of the inmates of the Soldiers' Home to that institution.
Mr. Stanton caused the letter addressed to him by the Secretary of the National Asylum at Dayton (printed in the Senate ' proceedings of this day) to be read in this matter, stating that this action was to result in the soldiers being better cared for by the National Government; whilst it would admit of the State's appropriating the Home building as an Orphan Asylum.
The resolution was adopted.
On motion of Mr. RUDDELL, it was ordered that the testimony taken by the Joint Committee for investigation of the affairs of the Southern Prison, transmitted from the Senate, be now read.
The testimony of J. B. Merriweather having been read-
Mr. UNDERWOOD moved that the testimony be printed.
After some conversation between Mr. Coffroth and Mr. Ruddell touching certain testimony before the Committee, given by said Merriweather, and not included in the report, and after the reading of a copy of page: 88[View Page 88] such rejected or suppressed testimony, which Mr. Coffroth had sent up-
Mr. COFFROTH moved to print the suppressed testimony.
Mr. WILLIAMS, of Knox, submitted the following:
Resolved, That the report of tho evidence before the Committee on Prisons be referred to the Judiciary Committee, with instructions to inquire whether the said Directors or others are not liable under it, and if so, that suit be brought against them, etc.
Mr. RUDDELL said the Directors' attention was called to that, and they had acted on it in their supplementary report to the Governor. He insisted that the House itself should inspect the report, which was the result of a faithful and conscientious investigation. He did not expect the report to be referred to another committee.
Mr. WILLIAMS desired it referred, that we might get from gentlemen learned in the law a report as to whether the facts authorize suits to be brought. He meant no disrespect to the Committee on Prisons.
Mr. STEWART, of Rush, was favorable to the reference.
Mr. GORDON preferred to hear all the evidence first.
Mr. JOHNSON, of Parke, could see no impropriety in the reference to another Committee.
Mr. PIERCE, of Vigo, said the House was not unwilling to hear the testimony there was a difference of opinion as to how the testimony should come before the House.
Mr. DUNN submitted a resolution for a substitute for the pending motion-to concur in the report to discharge the Committee, and send the papers to the Attorney General with instruction to proceed against the parties in his discretion.
Mr. COFFROTH made the point, that the motion of Mr. Williams is not germain to the motion to permit, and therefore not in order.
The SPEAKER. The motion to refer has precedence of the motion to print.
Mr. JOHNSON, of Parke, continued. He was in favor of printing the evidence. He then stated the reasons why he should oppose the reference.
Mr. WILLIAMS, of Knox, modified his motion so as to include an order to print.
Mr. OSBORN preferred to leave the matter in the hands of the Prison Committee till we have time to understand the testimony.
Mr. McFADIN commended the industry of the Committee on Prisons. They had brought out evidence of monstrous frauds and corruptions in the management of the Southern Prison. Then why not hear the evidence, and act upon it? He might be satisfied with the reference again, but it would be like going over the same again. He would have the testimony printed.
Mr. BARRITT opposed recommitment as he would oppose delay in this matter. He referred to the difficulty with which the chairman of the Prison Committee had been met in getting this report and evidence before the House; and opposed printing chiefly becuse of the delay which it would induce.
Mr. OVERMYER opposed the reference as he would oppose a movement to delay and smmuggle this report beyond the action of the House. He moved to lay Mr. Williams' resolution and Mr. Dunn's substitute on the table, demanding the yeas and nays.
Mr. DAVIS, of Floyd, preferred that the report be printed; which might be done and in the hands every member by to-morrow or next day.
The SPEAKER stated the question. The printing of the report has been ordered. The first motion is to print the evidence
Mr. CUNNINGHAM demanded a division of the question-the first vote on tabling Mr. Dunn's resolution.
Mr. DENNIS' substitute was laid on the table-yeas 73, nays 7.
Mr. WILLIAMS, Of Knox, obtained leave to withdraw that part of his motion which proposes to refer to the Judiciary Committee, and, the remainder-to print 200 copies-was adopted.
Mr. COFFROTH desired that the rejected testimony be included in the order to print, and made that motion.
Mr. DAVIS, of Floyd, supported the motion, and after desultory consideration thereon by Messrs. CORY, RUDDELL, PIERCE of Vigo, and others, with reference to a waive in blank in the suppressed testimony of J. B. Merriweather.
Mr. VATER moved to amend Mr. Coffroth's motion by adding that said testimony be not printed till the blank is filled.
Mr. COFFROTH stated that he submitted the paper as suppressed matter, and had not examined it; was unaware of the blank; and that, as the success of Mr. Vater's motion would prevent the printing, he moved to lay it on the table.
The question was decided in the negative, yeas 34, nay 50; and the question recurred.
Mr. DAVIS, of Floyd, interrogated the Chairman, Mr. Ruddell, as to this part of evidence, as to whether a journal of the committee's proceedings was kept, showing, that this evidence was rejected as if revelent; and that perhaps Mr. Meriweather took a copy of that part. Mr. D. insisted that the House has a right to this potion of the evidence before the committee it were in the power of the committee the name in blank should be furnished-to page: 89[View Page 89] relieve the House from the awkwardness of position of ordering printing when a certain blank can be filled.
Mr. RUDDELL, Mr. LAMBORN, Mr. BARRITT, and every member of the Prison Committee, stated that, while they could remember, that that testimony was before the Committee, they could not recover the same.
Mr. DAVIS of Floyd, concluded, asserting as before, the rights of the House and the duty of the Committee, and calling for a division of the question.
Mr. WILSON submitted that this was not a case of suppression, but of rejection of testimony. He considered that the Committee had a right to exclude this testimony, and that it couid not be printed without injustice to some.
Mr. NEFF considered that there was unnecessary nervousness about this matter. But he could not see how it should be concluded against using this testimony. In reply to Mr. Ruddell, he supposed this Prison Committee went down there to investigate all frauds connected with the prison, and was riot confined to the conduct of Mr. Merriwether. He admitted that the committee intended no unfairness, that they acted in all faithfulness and honesty, but now when this matter is sprung upon them it was strange to see members of the committee objecting to the printing.
Mr. CORY said the committee were not objecting to printing the testimony; but what they wanted was that the testimony to be printed shall be complete.
Mr. NEFF. That was the only strange thing about the matter-that these gentlemen oppose the printing of this testimony, which is admitted to be genuine.
Mr. JOHNSTON, of Parke, proposed to amend, by adding: "and that the Committee on Prisons be requested to fill the blannk." He submitted that the Committee were probably able to fill the blank, and that the House has the right to require the Committee to fill it.
Mr. STANTON. Was it the Committee or other parties proposing to bring this testimony before the House? He submitted that the filling of the blank belonged to those sending this testimony into the House. They should do that, or state the reason why they cannot do it; and until they do that-the one or the other-he submitted that the House ought not to print the testimony.
Mr McFADIN. Was there any other testimony suppressed.
Mr. RUDDELL. It was merely rejected testimony-rejected as irrevalent matter-relating to things which transpired long ago. In reply to Mr. Coffroth, he replied that while the order of the House was to investigate the affairs of the prison, the Committee (the Sub-committee) considered it their special duty to investigate charges against Merriweather and Ghee. He did not recollect that this testimony, just brought in here, was even taken down by the Committee's Clerk.
Mr. CHITTENDEN moved to lay Mr. Jolmston's, of Park, amendment on the table, which was decided in the negative yeas 39, nays 40, and question recurred on Mr. Jolmston's motion.
Mr. VATER. It was assumed that the committee have been trying to suppress evidence, while the fact was that gentlemen desire to thrust evidence upon the House which is not completewhich is not evidence, but was rejected by the committee.
Mr. Johnston's amendment was adopted yeas 39, nays 38-aand the question recurred on the adoption of Mr. Vater's motion as amended.
Mr. COFFROTH now said he would accept Mr. Vater's amendment, as amended, as a part of his motion.
Mr. WILLSON moved to lay the motion, as amended, on the table; which was decided in the negative-yeas 37, nays 41: and the question again recurred.
Mr. LAMBORN made an ineffectual motion to adjourn.
Mr. JOHNSTON, of Parke, now demanded the previous question.
Mr. COFFROTH said he accepted the amended proposition of Mr. Water as part of the text of his motion, originally approved, which he read as follows:
Resolved, That the suppressed testimony of J. B. Meriweather be printed with the other testimony taken by the Committee ;_that the blank be filled-and by the committee.
Mr. RUDDELL and Mr. WILSON taking a distinction between "suppressed" and "neglected" testimony-
Mr. COFFROTH (by consent) changed the word " suppressed " to the word "omitted," and so it was adopted-yeas 45, nays 29, as follows:
YEAS-Messrs. Addison, Admire, Bates, Carnahan, Cave, Chapman, Coffroth, Gory, Cotton, Cunningham, Davis of Floyd, Field of Lagrange, Hamilton, Higbee, Hutson, Hyatt, Johnson of Montgomery, Johnson of Parke, Kercheval, Lawler, Logan, Long, McFadin, MC-Gregor, Miller, Miles, Mock, Montgomery, Neff, Odell, Osborn, Palmer, Pierce of Vigo, Ratliff, Shoaff, Skidmore, Sleeth, Stewart of Rush, Sun-man, Tebbs, Wile, Williams of Knox, and Zenor -43.
NAYS-Messrs. Baker, Beeler, Breckinridge, Chittenden, Davidson, Dittemore, Dunn, Fairchild, Gordon, Greene, Hall, Hutchings, Jump, Lamborn, Overmyer, Pierce of Porter, Ruddell, Sabin, Smith, Stephenson, Taber, Underwood, Vardeman, Vater, Wildman, Williams of Hamilton, Williams of Union, Wilson, and Air. Speaker-29.
The House then took a recess till 2 o'clock.
page: 90[View Page 90]AFTERNOON SESSION.
The Senate bill No. 328, for meetings of District Appraisers, the Indiana University bill [S. 100], the City Railroad amendment bill. [S. 85], were severalty read and passed to the second reading.
Mr. UNDERWOOD made an ineffectual motion to take up the bill [S. 8] for the suppression of prize fighting.
The bill [S. 291] for transfering Brown county to the Second Circuit, and the bill [S. 290] creating the Twenty-sixth Circuit, were severally read and ordered to the third reading.
Mr. CORY moved the suspension of the constitutional restriction to admit of the passage of the-Court bill [S. 290.]
Mr. OVERMYER moved to amend, by adding the bill [S. 292.]
Mr. STANTON made the point that the amendment is not germane to the proposition.
Mr. COFFROTH supported and the SPEAKER sustained the point of order.
The constitutional restriction as to the bill [S. 290] was then suspended-yeas 70, nays 14-and the bill was then again read.
It creates the Twenty-sixth Judicial Circuit, fixing the times of holding Courts therein, and fixing the times of holding Courts in the Fourth Judicial Circuit.
It was finally passed the House of Representatives without amendment-yeas 76, nays 12.
Mr. OVERMYER moved, ineffectually, to suspend the Constitutional restriction for the final consideration of the Brown county transference bill [S. 292]yeas 46, nays 34two-thirds not voting in the affirmative.
Mr. ZOLLARS moved to suspend the Constitutional restriction to save one read-of the Savings Banks' bill [S. 161].
Mr. COFFROTH did not think the friends of this bill should press it in this way. He knew the question was not debatable; but, regarding it as a most infamous bill, he hoped the restriction would not be suspended.
Mr. ZOLLARS withdrew the motion.
On motion of Mr. FURNAS, the order of business was suspended, for the consideration of his Agricultural and Horticultural Reports Appropriation bill [H. R. 194], and it finally passed the House-yeas 78, nays 0.
Mr. BEELER moved ineffectually to take up his bill [H. B. 206] for the transfer of Marion county to-the Southern Prison district.
On motion of Mr. McFADIN Mr. Logan's fox and wild cat bill [H. B. 168] was taken up. (It provides 50 cedts for scalps.)
Mr. BRITTON proposed to strike out the words "under six months old," which agreed to.
Mr. DAVIDSON proposed, ineffectually to make it read "red foxes."
The bill was then ordered to be engrossed.
The bill [S. 161] to provide for the Organization of savings banks, was read the second time with the committee's recommendation.
Mr. COFFROTH moved that the bill reported to the Committee on the Judiciary.
Mr. ZOLLERS opposed the motion an supported the bill, setting forth especially the security to depositors which is require by the 14th section. It was a bill to be beneficial in its effects to the poorer men of th country. It had been before the proper Committees of both Houses, and its passage was fully recommended.
Mr. NEFF supported the motion to refer the bill again, and, if it has merits wanted to vote for it.
On motion of Mr. ZOLLARS the motion to refer was laid on the table.
Mr. MITCHELL proposed to amend the first section, by appropriately inserting after the words, "five thousand dollars in real estate," then: "exclusive of perishable improvements."
The amendment was adopted: and then the emergency clause reported by the committee was also adopted.
Pending the question on ordering the bill to the third reading-
Mr. COFFROTH stated, at length, his objections to its passage. If this bill becomes a law, he would as soon deposit his money in a Pharo Bank, as in such a Savings Bank as it contemplated. The provision in the first section, that the seven stockholders are required to be each possessed of $5,000 in real estate, and the amendment to this by Mr. Mitchell, (which was very well,) did not offer security to depositors. There was no provision to secure depositors from first to last. The security provided in the fourteenth section did not secure depositors because the officers of these banks were to manage them under the Directors. The Governor "may require the officers of these banks to give security." Another objection was, that is the sixteenth section it is provided that deposits cannot be withdrawn without notice ranging in time proportionate to the amount to be withdrawn-extending to as long a time as ninety days. He objected, also, to the 54th section, which provides that moneys of minors and insane persons may be deposited, without security, so as not withdrawn till the minor's majority, &c. He denounced the bill as an attempt to page: 91[View Page 91] fasten a confidence game upon the statute book. He moved that it be indefinitely postponed.
Mr. KERCHEVAL replied, complaining of the harshness of the gentleman from Huntington, in applying to the bills the estimation which he has for a grand confidence games. He said to the gentleman and the House that the Committee on Banks were ready to vote for any amendment that would better secure depositors.
Mr. GREEN defended the bill stating that it has been drawn after the savings banking statutes of New York and, other Eastern States, under which there have been no failures.
On motion of Mr. RATLIFF, the vote by which Mr. Coffroth's motion to refer was laid on the table was reconsidered; and then-
The bill was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary, with instructions to report thereon next Friday.
The Drainage assessment bill [S. 89] amendatory of the act of March, 2, 1867, was read the second time.
Mr. PALMER proposed to amend by striking out all after the creating clause, and inserting matter by way of substitute.
Mr. PIERCE, of Porter, moved that the bill and proposed amendment be referred again to the Committee on County and Township Business.
Mr. STEWART, of Rush, moved, inaffectually, to refer to the Committee on Rights and Privileges.
Mr. Pierce's motion was then agreed to.
Mr. RATLIFF proposed a further amendment, which was referred without reading.
Mr. OSBORN called up his bill [H. R. 322] , to enable railroad companies to protect their lines by connections, but, pending the question thereon,
The House adjourned.

6. | what's up | ||
A question about what another has his attention on. What is he thinking about or busy with? "Up" in this usage is referring to a slag from around the 1930s meaning: occupied with or busy with. When I saw him he was angry so I asked "what's up?". But he would not tell me what he was angry about.
1. | what's up | ||
An extremely annoying question that has (unfortunately) replaced "Hello" or "Hi" as the most popular form of casual greeting. For full effect, best delivered while walking past someone at about 90 m.p.h. so the person you're talking to has no time to respond, and in a tone that suggests you really don't give a shit about "what's up" with them. Dude #1: "Hey, man. What's up?"
Dude #2: "Uh..." (what he managed to get out before Dude #1 was already too far away to hear the rest of what he was going to say) |
2. | what's up | ||
see also: whazzup, whassup, whasabi!!, etc.
1. Hi 2. Wtf is wrong with you?? It's probably originated from the late 20th century, when people were astounded with the sky. The only thing that they would reply was "nothing" Probably the first term to the decline of western civilization 1. Person 1: What's up?
Person 2: "Nothing" (most common response, maybe 99% of people say that) 2. Person 1: What's up? Person: "The sky" (smart alleck answer: also: "the ceiling" or, "da roof") |
3. | what's up | ||
Possibly derived from "what's the update." Extremely overused, almost exclusively by America's youth.
Sometimes I wonder why people always ask each other the same question over and over again, when answer is always "nothing." Are we really that dull? Mike: What's up?
Matthew: Nothing. If you ask me again I'll roast you. |
4. | What's up | ||
Used to ask an indiviudal how things are going. Can be responded to in urban settings by using the word Chillin or in Jamaica by saying Cool A- Yo man what's up?
B- Chilllin |
WHAT'S UP! is just a greeting not a question not asking anything just an aknowledgement/ greeting in passing and the only reply in that tone , you have to listen for the tone, is what's! up and keep it moving. Important listen for the tone. walking down the street and see someone, eyes meet you both have things to do or nothing to do whatever the case you say, what's up! and you keep it moving. don't just say this in any situation you have to use your senses if you don't have any senses don't try it because if you aint feeling it or you convey it in the wrong way it could be misinscrewed in the wrong way that same what's up? could be a challange or a question in which case if you can't reach for your feelings or senses just say hi, that nuetralizes anything other then the greeting.
7. | What's up | ||
Used to mean "she/he/you is/are very attractive and I would very much enjoy making love to you." It is derived from "A Night at the Roxbury" Steve: What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up?
Doug: Steve, slow down. Steve: I can't help it man, it's hottie overload. Doug: Just pace yourself. Steve: Ok... What's up?... 2, 3, 4. What's up?... 2, 3, 4... |

Former senator Scott Brown, appearing in a candid interview on Fox 25 Monday night, said he is "thinking about" a run for governor next year, even as he gets used to being at home in Wrentham, away from the limelight.
"I'm going to keep all options open," he said in the interview with the station's Maria Stephanos and broadcast from his living room. "I'm not going to be one of those 'ooh I'm really not thinking about it.' Of course I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about a lot of different thing things. But right now the best thing I can do for myself and for my peace of mind and I think for the people of Massachusetts is just to hang tight and recharge and be active."
so little scotty, our ex-boy senator may not be giving up the quest for political office? Learning Spanish, the guitar and tweeting.....and possibly running for governor? Oh...forgot his recent signing on with the faux kartoon network. Appears he was busier now than when he was "representing" our state with the help of mcconnel, kyl, imhofe.
Was hoping to retire the brownmustgo account name with the recent loss of his seat to someone who should be there and will not only represent our state but the country too. This is an ethic contrary to the likes of l'il scotty and his tea/republican party cohorts which is party first, country second, women third....
So continue to mull your political future scotty...bring it with your new aquasition of Spanish, the guitar, and a network that has no clue about what fair and balanced mean....much like your recent representation of our state in DC.
The day Scott Brown announces he is not going to run for Governor will be the last day he appears (and gets paid for being) on Fox News, gets quoted about anything, his last interview, etc. He's got six months, maybe a year, to really cash in on his Senate celebrity, then it's back to a couple of hundred bucks for a real estate closing and drafting wills.
This comment has been removed.
Great! He'd make an excellent Governor. I appreciate Deval proving that liberals are crazy about raising taxes and coddling illegals and EBT card recipients. It's like free advertising for a non-Democrat to take the helm.
All the disparaging comments from Liberals/Democrats about Scott Brown just re-prove their ignorance. Brown is the finest Republican that the Democrats can own, mainly because he is not much of a Republican. This is what happens to Republicans in Massachusetts - they get "Stockholm Syndromed" into stupidity. Keep blasting away you Liberal poseurs!
This time, Mr. Honestman, you have a Republican calling out a pseudo-Republican for what he is - a political hermaphrodite. How did that work out for him? Here's the thing - if a "Republican" like Scott Brown cannot be swallowed by Massachusetts' Democrats, how can a conservative win in a State that voted overwhelmingly for (gulp) Obama? This is why the Dems are hypocrites when they say they want bi-partisanship. They only want a "D" - even if it's someone as incomprehensible as Deval Patrick. Huh?
This comment has been removed.
Scott Brown was also on the Bill O'Reilly Factor. O'Reilly said and Brown agreed that MA right now has a $500 Million budget shortfall and the state is $17 BILLION in debt that will never be repaid. ..How come the Globe has said NOTHING about the MA budget or the MA debt?. While claiming that Deval's proposed tax hikes are ONLY to improve transportation and education. And the largest budget shortfall is from the MA healthcare law. Deval's tax hikes are really to cover the health care budget shortfall.

Music is like sex. You don't have an orgasm to start, you work your way up to it. You start up slow then things get heated and then you go fast until you know ? You got it now go get it girl!
Build upon on it girl and work it into a tizzy then explode. Don't hold back just let it go and you got it girl! If you build it from the beginning and then make them want to listen, and then wait for it.......... to the end when you explode. You got it definitely but make them feel what they need to feel or even better what you want them to feel.

Vitamin D Testing Now Offered In-house
Gamma Healthcare is pleased to announce the addition of total Vitamin D testing to its in-house test menu.
In 2009 the Archives of Internal Medicine reported that 77% of adults in the United States suffered from Vitamin D insufficiency resulting from limited exposure to the sun and diets deficient in Vitamin D. Studies indicate a correlation between deficient Vitamin D levels and health conditions. These factors have produced a dramatic increase in requests for Vitamin D testing. To meet this demand and improve service to both our client and our patients, on November 7, 2011, Gamma Healthcare began offering total Vitamin D testing in-house. This service will decrease turn-around-time from 72 hours to less than 24 hours in most cases.
Two types of Vitamin D have been identified: Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) from plants and Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) from sunlight and fatty fish such as herring and mackerel. Measurement of total Vitamin D (D2 and D3) is necessary for aiding correct interpretations of a patient's status. Not all Vitamin D assays available on the market measure total Vitamin D. Gamma Healthcare employs the ADVIA Centaur XP Vitamin D Total Assay by Siemens, which does measure total Vitamin D aiding correct patient assessment.
The emerging evidence associating Vitamin D deficiency with serious health conditions is making it critical that the general public know how to maintain and monitor adequate Vitamin D levels. Gamma Healthcare in conjunction with Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics - both leaders in clinical diagnostics - are playing a role in helping people achieve good health by employing performance-driven solutions, which assist in diagnosing, treating and monitoring disease. Following these four tips will help in maintaining healthy levels of Vitamin D:
Contact the Gamma Healthcare Customer Service Center for further information regarding test method, specimen requirements or turn-around-times.

Re: Clostridium difficile Testing Procedure
Valued Client,
Gamma HealthCare, Inc. will be offering a new molecular diagnostic test for Clostridium difficile starting August 15, 2011. Rapid identification of toxigenic Clostridium difficile in the stool samples of patients showing signs and symptoms of C. difficile infection can be critical to patient care and management.
We will be offering the Meridian Bioscience, Inc., illumigene™ C. difficile Assay. This is a qualitative, in vitro diagnostic, molecular amplification test that detects the pathogenicity locus by targeting the tcdA target region which is found in all A+B+ and A-B+ toxinotypes.
By providing this test we can offer you:
illumigene™ C. difficile Assay utilizes Loop Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) to detect toxin gene sequences associated with toxin producing C. difficile. The assay has been evaluated to provide a sensitivity and specificity of 95.2% and 95.3% respectively when compared directly to the gold standard of toxigenic culture.
Additional literature is available from the laboratory. Please contact us if you have any questions.
April 21st, 2011
Dear Client,
To increase the quality of occult blood testing for our patients we have updated our testing option for Occult Blood, Fecal. The new test is Fecal Occult Blood-Immunochem; test code 10317. This immunochemical test provides several advantages over the Guaiac method including greater specificity and sensitivity for human hemoglobin, ease of collection, reduction in the number of samples needed (only one required), and no dietary or medicine restrictions.
Due to significant improvement over the current guaiac method, as of May 1st, 2011 we will no longer offer Occult Blood, Fecal by guaiac methodology; test code 201. Any specimen received on a card or sterile container will be rejected. All specimens for occult blood testing must be collected in the specific collection container provided and according to collection instructions for the updated test FOB-I; 10317. The container will be forwarded to our main laboratory where the result will be determined by our OC-Auto 80 analyzer, removing subjectivity from the analysis.
Handling/Draw Instructions:
Specimen Requirements:
Specimen Retention:
If you are interested in purchasing FOB guaiac kits for your own use they are available from supply at $32.25 per 50 cards with developer or $64.50 per 100 cards with developer.

Press Release:
December 15, 2010
Jerry Murphy, Chairman and Owner of Gamma HealthCare, Inc., would like to announce the construction of a new state of the art Clinical Laboratory located inside the Physicians Park Building in Andalusia, AL.
This new facility will allow Gamma HealthCare, Inc. the ability to expand its clinical laboratory services to the state of Alabama and the entire Southeast. "This project will provide the city of Andalusia and the surrounding areas with a choice for their laboratory testing needs," says Mr. Murphy. According to Mr. Murphy Gamma HealthCare, Inc. has been looking for the right opportunity to expand in this region. He continued by saying, "Andalusia will be a vital part of our growth strategy in the Southeast. We will be able to service Southern MS, Alabama, Western Georgia and North West Florida from this location."
Olin Harden, Marc McIntyre and Dr. Tim Day of HDM Group LLC are building the new Physicians Park located on South Three Notch Street in Andalusia, AL. "We are excited to have Gamma HealthCare, Inc. as a laboratory provider for our community. They will be able to provide high quality healthcare services to the local physicians and the citizens of the communities we serve," said Mr. Harden
Gamma HealthCare, Inc. is headquartered in Poplar Bluff, MO. Gamma employs approximately 400 employees throughout 11 different states. They provide Clinical Laboratory services to individuals, Physicians and Long Term Care Facilities throughout the Midwest and Southeast. Gamma also provides Mobile Radiology Imaging and Medical Waste Disposal services to the areas they serve.
You may wish to follow the progress of this construction project at www.gammahealthcare.com. Completion of this project is scheduled for late summer 2011.
Urodynamics is the new service that Gamma now provides. Only Gamma HealthCare offers Long Term Care facilities Urodynamics services with the Midwest. What is Urodynamics? It involves a collection of studies that help to evaluate the lower urinary tract including the bladder and urethra. If the patient demonstrates certain symptoms such as urinary frequency, urgency, incontinence then they may be a candidate for our program.
Up to 50% of nursing time is spent managing urinary incontinence and its conscequences taking time away from other duties. With our program the nursing staff is able to focus more on the residents' primary care needs.
The leading provider of onsite technology for the treatment and disposal of medical waste and the destruction of confidential documents and related media, today announced it has signed a distributor agreement with Gamma Healthcare, Inc./Danner Medical Waste Management Services, a premier provider of medical diagnostic services that include laboratory, portable digital radiology, urodynamics, along with medical waste transportation and disposal services. This agreement will enable Gamma Healthcare to expand its service offerings and to provide integrated onsite medical waste disposal and onsite document destruction technology and services as complementary services to its existing medical waste transportation line of business. The structure of the agreement enables both companies to collaborate on and target their integrated technology and services to the more than 700 large quantity medical waste generators and the nearly 2,500 medium quantity medical waste generators in the seven-state region.
"We are pleased and excited to partner with a first-class organization such as Gamma Healthcare, including its Danner Medical Waste division," commented David Laky, President and CEO, MedClean Technologies, Inc. "This partnership provides considerable expansion to our distributor network, which now covers 13 states. Gamma currently has 11 office locations with sales representatives servicing its region who already possess significant established relationships with ideal target customers across the Midwest. Our job is to provide the Gamma team with the technology and services required to support rapid expansion of its medical waste disposal line of business."
Mr. Laky continued, "This opportunity represents a significant milestone for MedClean Technologies as well. Our goals and targets communicated earlier in the year included building a distributor network consisting of at least five new distributors as well as other strategic partners. Gamma represents our fourth and largest distributor, with all four signed prior to the mid-year mark. Our distributors and partners combine to span two countries, over 5,000 targets, the VA Health System, and over one third of North America. We expect the combination of Gamma's regional excellence and MedClean's technology and services to result in new business yielding up to $2 million in revenue for each company during the first year of the partnership, as we believe Gamma has the potential to achieve significant revenue and rapid expansion in the first year."
"The MedClean product line is a natural addition to our current business model, as well as for our plans to expand our medical waste hauling and confidential document destruction and recycling business," added Jerrod Murphy, President and COO of Gamma Healthcare. "We are now in the position to establish processing facilities throughout our region utilizing various configurations of the MedClean Series of equipment. This flexibility will enable us to further evolve to a full service provider to meet the wide array of our clients' needs. We will also be able to expand our target medical waste customer base through servicing customers no matter how small or large their volume of medical waste as well as possessing the ability to meet their waste treatment preferences."
"We are excited and looking forward to our relationship with MedClean Technologies, Inc.," commented Jerry Murphy, Chairman and CEO of Gamma Healthcare, Inc. This partnership will give us the ability to expand the services that we currently offer and allow us to reach new business relationships within our current market territory."

Save big bucks on gown and tux
Wedding clothes need not cost a fortune. You can even get a coupon for tuxedo rentals.
- The bridal gown doesn't have to cost a fortune.
- Bridesmaids' gowns need not be one-time-use.
- The men don't have to wear monkey suits -- but if that's the plan, did you know you can get a coupon for tux rentals?
Outfitting the bridal party can be pretty fraught, from the choice of wedding colors to the length of the veil.
It's possible to get the look you want -- even a designer look -- without emptying your wallet. Wedding planners and former brides told me so.
Something old?
The dress need not be new. Brides Against Breast Cancer collects and sells dresses for as little as $99. Half of them are new, gowns that were donated by retailers, designers and manufacturers.
If there's no charity sale in your area, check out the offerings at sites like Recycled Bride (which also offers men's suits) Wore It Once and Encore Bridal.
Or how about re-using a vintage dress? "If it was a family member's, the heartfelt meaning and nod to history is inherent," says Sara Mathes, co-owner of Jill Andrews Gowns in Baltimore. Sometimes the tailoring is as simple as removing the sleeves or changing the neckline.
Kelly Bejelly, who blogs at A Girl Worth Saving, wanted a new gown but she didn't want to pay too much. "I found a seamstress on Craigslist and the total cost of my custom wedding dress was $250," says the Portland, Ore., writer.
Rent, don't buy
Guys rent tuxes all the time, but how many people think of renting wedding gowns or bridesmaids' dresses? WeRentWeddingDresses.com provides a state-by-state list of wedding rental stores.
Rent the Runway offers access to high-end designer gowns for about one-tenth of the cost of purchase. Wondering whether it will fit? The company will throw in a second size of the same gown, just in case. (Post continues below.)
Rent a Wedding Dress is a matchmaker: It puts you in touch with women interested in renting out their gowns. That's one way to recoup an investment.
Off the rack
If a friend asked you to pay a few hundred dollars for an outfit you could wear only once, would you do it? Probably not. So why ask your bridesmaids to go along with floor-length turquoise gowns and shoes dyed to match?
Photographer Catherine Fiehn recalls a thoughtful bride who suggested her attendants pick out their own black dresses.
"The ladies all had dress that flattered their figures and their individual budgets -- and that they could use again," says Fiehn, who's based in Darien, Conn.
Kendal Perez, who blogs at Hassle Free Savings, also had her attendants choose their own dresses. To create "a cohesive look," she had them wear the same type of shawl. (The garments doubled as bridesmaids' gifts.)
Similarly, why not specify "dark suit" for the groomsmen? If the groom already owns a nice suit, he's home-free; if not, this is a good excuse to buy one.
Should he really want a tux, buying one versus renting (more on that in a minute) ensures that he'll look great at the next wedding he attends, as well as at the symphony or the opera.
Other frugal tricks
Wedding attire need not be tuxes and gowns. Geri Koeppel's nuptials took place on a 100-degree-plus day so "we passed on the formal suit and wedding dress," says the Phoenix-based writer.
She and her fiancé opted for a Tommy Bahama silk shirt and pants and a cream-colored spring dress. Total expenditure: about $350 for clothes they could wear again.
A few more suggestions:
Shop on eBay. Kate Harrison of the Green Bride Guide site wanted Vera Wang shoes. She got them for $50 via online auction, then resold them for the same price. "All I paid for was the shipping," she says.
Check consignment stores. Kelly Bejelly paid $13 for her wedding shoes at Buffalo Exchange. Or check a thrift store, especially on half-price day.
Utilize cash-back shopping. You can get a new dress at a lower cost this way. Extrabux, Mr. Rebates, FatWallet.com and other cash-back sites offer rebates for retailers like David's Bridal, House of Brides and American Bridal.
Look for coupons. Sites such as Brad's Deals, Retail Me Not and Savings.com have coupons and special discounts for the same sorts of wedding stores as the cash-back sites have. I also found coupons for $10 to $40 off tux rentals at Savings.com.

T22 - Cost Effective Torque Transducer for Standard Industrial Applications
Installing and using T22 and integration into your test and measurement tasks is quick and easy:
- Electronics included - The transducer already comes with an integrated electronics; this saves time and costs – no additional, external amplifiers are required for upgrading your measurement chain
- Fast installation - Using the matching couplings available for all T22 sizes
- Compact design - And thus perfectly suited to use in test benches where space is a constraint.
Product Description
The facts in brief: T22 acquires torque using strain gages and contact-less energy and signal transmission. The accuracy class is 0.5 (in compliance with the demanding HBM definition).
T22 is available with nominal (rated) torques from 5 N∙m to 1 kN∙m. These characteristics make T22 the perfect choice mainly for dynamic and static torque measurement – on both stationary and rotating parts.
Typical fields of application include laboratory, test and measurement, and education. Production and process control is another field of application of T22 – the transducer enables direct connection to a PLC. 11.5 V up to 30 V DC supply and two ± 5 V and 10 ±8 mA analog outputs provide the basis for connection to a PLC.
The VK20A junction boxes available as accessories make connection easier, increase operating safety and integrate the measurement shaft into the complete HBM measurement chain. Suitable bellows couplings are also available as accessories.
