The Space for Expatriates
Living in Los Cabos: Cost of Groceries
Well, I've got some grocery receipts ready, so let's continue on the cost of living discussion. Remember, once you're here for more than a vacation you won't be eating out every single meal. That's the biggest source of misconception about how affordable life in Cabo really is. It's not that locals don't eat out, just not EVERY meal. Yes, our prices are higher than on the mainland because of shipping costs but still quite affordable. So here goes with what I hope will be a representative sampling taken from our grocery bills for the past week (short the farmer's market produce I posted over the weekend).
Our prices are in pesos per kilo; I will convert that to dollars per pound when possible just for the sake of comparison. I'm using today's exchange rate of 14/1. And, I would love it if readers would chime in on how the prices compare to where they live.
Ground pork: $1.92 (as I recall ground beef was a bit higher but not much).
Baby Back Ribs: $2.53
Bacon: $2.44
Pate Cerdo (kind of like liverwurst): $1.64 per chub
Deli Ham: $4.04
Deli Turkey Breast: $3.94
(For chicken I mostly use the boneless, skinless breast from Costco, as memory serves the big bag costs somewhere around 100 pesos or about $7)
Fish and seafood, unless some lucky fisherperson gifts it to me, I buy only day of consumption but it's quite, quite reasonable compared to the US. As I recall last time I bought jumbo shrimp he charged me about five bucks a pound which I thought was highway robbery).
Fresh produce other than Farmer's Market
Jicama: 58 cents per pound
Broccoli: $1.15
Sweet Potato: 63 cents
Celery: 32 cents
Limes: 24 cents
Baby potatoes: 42 cents
Pinapple: 39 cents
Mango: 45 cents (now this was a splurge, first of the season, will be half that next week)
Avocado: 80 cents (on sale)
Apples: $1.29 (of course, they're imported)
Eggs (large, brown, dozen): $1.84
Absolute Essentials!!!
Lindt 90% Cacao large size bar: $3.50 and worth every penny
Canned Goods and such:
Tuna: 81 cents
Dry Soup Mix: 43 cents
Soy oil (one liter): $2.00
Mayonaise: $2.00
Popping corn: 34 cents per pound
Rice: 57 cents per pound
Small corn: 46 cents
Small peas: 41 cents
Pedigree Dog Cookies: $1.17
Small Salsa Verde: 48 cents
Evaporated Milk: 81 cents
English Muffins: $2.82
Cleaning Supplies/Misc
Large skin lotion: $3.69
Laundry detergent (2 liter): $4.61
Bar Soap: 69 cents
Pledge: $3.31
Bleach (gallon): $1.20

Cid didnt say anything and walked into the house with his swords up. "Where..." he asked.
Bella ran behind him and told them "There in the living room" then she pointed to the living room where you could see them being tortured by the soldiers
Cid walked up behind them and tapped one on the shoulder. The second he turned,Cid sliced his neck and turned to the other one. "You...You!?" the scared soldier said. He moved his hand to his ear. "Command,send backup here,its--" he said but he couldnt finish,Cid had knocked him out with one punch.
Bella cracked the soldier's neck then grabbed the radio he had in his hand, she opened it and started fiddling with it, the old man thanked cid and so did his wife, they told him that they would show him a underground tunnel they have for emergency and they all could get out without anyone noticing and the soldiers would never find it if he wanted, as they waited for his respond bella closed the radio and said "There, that should do it"

Global targets 2025: To improve maternal, infant and young child nutrition
WHO's Member States have endorsed global targets for improving maternal, infant and young child nutrition and are committed to monitoring progress. The targets are vital for identifying priority areas for action and catalysing global change.
Updates to eLENA
11 March 2013 -- Another edition of the WHO electronic Library of Evidence for Nutrition Actions (eLENA) has just been published. The source for the latest evidence-based nutrition guidance now includes six new intervention topics.
The eLENA web site is also now available in Arabic and Chinese, completing translation of the site in all six official WHO languages.
WHO issuing new guidelines on sodium and potassium intakes
The new guidelines confirm that adults should consume less than 2 grams of sodium, or 5 grams of salt, per day. A reduction in sodium intake is needed to reduce blood pressure and risk of heart disease in adults.
The potassium guideline indicates that adult should consume at least 90 mmol per day (3,510 mg per day). Increasing potassium intake reduces blood pressure and decreases a person's risk of heart disease.
Choosing good nutrition (eLENA video)
This video presents the WHO e-Library of Evidence for Nutrition Actions (eLENA) - an online library of evidence-informed guidelines for an expanding list of nutrition interventions.

Synchronize Your Supply Chain with RFID
Source: Motorola
Eliminating sluggish processes and driving up efficiencies throughout the supply chain is no longer optional - it is a matter of survival. If your company isn't doing it, you can rest assured your competition is. Fortunately, there are proven RFID solutions available that will help you increase productivity and profitability across the supply chain. By applying RFID tags to containers, pallets, cartons and individual assets, you can track them from the warehouse floor to the customer's door. That's because the tags are always on and always talking. All you have to do is listen. In addition to helping you synchronize the movement of materials and products, RFID technology helps you keep an eye on the bottom line.

Who Should Attend
As a sales leader, you face challenges and setbacks on a daily basis.. The challenges you face impact your productivity (and your team's productivity) at work. Anyone can make an excuse or blame someone or something else when problems occur. It takes a person of character to figure out how to bounce back consistently, respond, be in control of their emotions and think quickly. Resilience is not what happens to you, it's how you react to, respond to, and recover from what happens to you. When you have mastered this and are able to consistently help and lead others to grow and prosper through change and challenges, you are on your way to becoming a resilient leader.

Masters: ARM atomic operations
Posted Nov 15, 2012 23:25 UTC (Thu) by BenHutchings (subscriber, #37955) [Link]
Posted Nov 23, 2012 1:19 UTC (Fri) by jzbiciak (✭ supporter ✭, #5246) [Link]
Right, but an outside master that has to snoop in to the ARM's memory hierarchy could see writes commit in a different order than the CPU sent them, on the basis of the snoops landing in L2, L1D or the write merge buffer. A DMB effectively draws a line for snoops, too.
FWIW, another source of fun, at least on processors like A15, is the fact that snoops have to deal with the run-ahead OoO pipeline. There may be loads and stores in flight that are on a mispredicted path, and need to be unwound. That can be yet another source of memory reordering wackiness in the memory system.
What I've seen is that a processor like A15 will respond faster to a snoop that hits L2 and misses L1D than a snoop that hits L1D also, because it doesn't need to sync with the OoO pipeline. Depending on your access pattern, you could have later writes that got flushed out to L2 ahead of earlier rights. For example, A15 will stop write-allocating in L1D if you stream too many write misses. So, you could easily have some older writes in L1D, some middle-aged writes write-allocating in L2 and the youngest writes in the L1D write-merge buffer. (More info here. Look at bits 25 thru 28, which control the L1 and L2 write streaming no-allocate threshold.)
A DMB after the write stream should ensure that snoops that come in see all these writes, if the snoops could also see a write that followed the DMB, regardless of which of these three places the write stream landed.

Earlier writes, even.

1.0000×10 −6 m | 1.00000 μm |
US customary / Imperial units | |
3.2808×10 −6 ft | 39.370×10 −6 in |
A micrometre or micrometer (pron.: /ˈmaɪkroʊmiːtər/, symbol µm) is an SI derived unit of length equaling 1×10−6 of a metre (SI standard prefix "micro-" = 10−6); that is, one-millionth of a metre (or one-thousandth of a millimetre, 0.001 mm, or about 0.000039 inches). The symbol µm is sometimes rendered as um if the symbol µ cannot be used.
The micrometre is a common unit of measurement for wavelengths of infrared radiation as well as sizes of cells and bacteria.[1]
The symbol for the SI prefix micro-, µ, is a Greek lowercase mu, μ. In Unicode, it has a codepoint distinct from that of the Greek letter lowercase mu so that it can be recognized as a symbol and not a letter. Many fonts use the same glyph for the two characters.
ISI Standardisation [edit]
The term micron and the symbol µ, representing the micrometre, were officially accepted between 1879 and 1967, but officially revoked by the ISI in 1967.[2]
Nevertheless, in practice, "micron" remains a widely used term in preference to "micrometre" in many English-speaking countries, both in academic science (including geology, biology, physics, and astronomy) and in applied science and industry (including machining, the semiconductor industry, and plastics manufacturing).[citation needed]
Additionally in American English the use of "micron" helps differentiate the unit from the micrometer, a measuring device, because the unit's name in mainstream American spelling is a homograph of the device's name. The term "micron" is still extensively used in most English-speaking countries.[citation needed]
In engineering it is common to use the micron as a replacement for the traditional thou or mil, each of which represent a thousandth of an inch. 1 thou = 1 mil = 25.4 microns. So a trash bag (in British English: a rubbish bag) may be originally specified as 0.35 mil thick, but stated as 8.89 microns. (0.35 mils or 8.89 µm)

The Major and its Emphasis Options
View entire undergraduate Handbook in PDF format
The Department of Theatre and Dance offers emphases in Acting, Design and Theatre Technology, Musical Theatre, Secondary Education and Youth Drama. We also offer a Dance Option within our BA in Theatre degree. Performance opportunities include six main stage faculty-directed productions, three touring productions, and over 20 student-directed productions including plays, musical theatre, dance, puppetry, improvisation, comedy, and creative drama.
The award-winning faculty provides theatre majors with superlative training within a broad liberal arts context. Students may take courses in acting, voice and movement, dialects, directing, choreography, design and theatre technology, the history, theory and criticism of drama and theatre, youth drama, secondary school certification, playwriting, storytelling, puppetry, ballet, theatre dance (jazz and tap), aerial dance, and musical theatre. Students interested in performance, technical, and historical aspects are trained to step into professional careers. The program affords means for independent study and internships, special projects, and active personal involvement in lecture and laboratory classes with the possibility for integration with other departments. To assist with financial needs, the department awards scholarships to undergraduates each spring.
Any incoming student with prior experience in Theatre or Dance should speak with an advisor in order to be placed in the correct class level. No audition is required to be a Theatre & Dance major. The curriculum and requirements for each emphasis area may be found by following these links:
General Theatre
Design & Theatre Technology
Musical Theatre
Secondary Education in Theatre
Youth Drama
The general theatre major allows students to explore a variety of areas. In the freshman and sophomore years, the student should enroll in at least two theatre and two general education courses per semester. The minimum grade requirement for Dance Option and Secondary Education courses is B-. For all other emphasis areas, the minimum grade requirement is C-. Any grade lower than the minimums stated above will not count toward the major. Under department policy, students who complete both COMM 401 and COMM 402 satisfy the Liberal Arts language competency requirement. All majors must take courses in the following areas: Performance, Design/Theatre Technology, and Theory/History as well as fulfill between four and eight practicums and complete a capstone course. Although timing will vary with each emphasis, it is strongly suggested that all introductory courses be taken prior to the end of the student's sophomore year. Major department courses taken to satisfy major requirements cannot be used to satisfy Discovery category requirements
The theatre and dance major practicum has been developed to assure a breadth of experience in the major. Students are required to take at least one practicum for every semester they are a major in the Theatre & Dance Department. In addition, each student must take each type of practicum at least once: Technical, Costume, Performance, Promotion & Marketing.
Students who stage manage or assistant stage manage a department production may use that experience to satisfy either the student's technical practicum or performance practicum requirement. Performance practicums include stage management, assistant stage management, assistant directing, and choreography.
All practicum credits must be earned for work done at UNH and supervised by the Theatre and Dance Department. Students may receive either pay or credit for practicums; they cannot receive both. 35 work hours are required per practicum class. Each practicum course is graded pass or fail. The student must meet with the practicum instructor no later than the second week of the semester for job description, procedures, and assignments. Failure to do so may result in receiving an "F" for the course.
If you chose to follow the old department major requirements (pre-Fall 2008), you can find those requirements here.

Btw. this is my first char on playing Bloodlines, I love it, thats why I am so eager to fix this lol =) Hope for your answer and thanks in advance! Marac
This is a known issue of the 8.3 UP which has been fixed in the 8.3.1 hotfix. So either you install that on top of 8.3 and reload from a saved game outside that crypt or you kill the brothers quickly before they disappear !

4-Lullabye (Goodnight My Angel)/And So It Goes/Scenes from an Italian Restaurant, Billy Joel
5-The Lonely, Christina Perri
6-I And Love And You, The Avett brothers
7-Space Oddity, David Bowie
8-Pretty Women, Brian Stokes Mitchell
9-Lonely Anywhere, The Everybodyfields
10-This Night, Black Lab
11-Wheels of a Dream, Ragtime the Musical (ignore the video, its the only one good audio I could find of the song)
Ok, ok, so that's more then ten, but it was hard enough narrowing it down this far. I linked to videos of each song (I really tried for number 8 but couldn't find anything--its still worth looking up) in case you're interested. I tried to list songs you might be unfamiliar with (ok, so Billy Joel and Christina Perri aren't exactly unknowns) and I hope you aren't too against a little Broadway. Here is the video for number 10, a particularly good video and a recent find I'm kind of obsessed with right now.
Now its your turn. What are the songs you think everyone should know about but don't? You don't have to give a list of ten if you don't want to, but I really want some good recommendations here.
Left a nice long list of songs in the comments? Good, now stop procrastinating and get back to work. Your novel isn't going to write itself, you know.

I think you read my mind because yesterday I had a post asking people what they're listening to these days because I'm looking for some new music! This list will be great. Hmm, something to listen to that everyone should know about...I think everyone should listen to India Arie. She is very inspiring and I'm not sure how popular she is.

There is no way I can tie titles with artists--my brain has always been foggy that way. However, these are some I enjoy:
Alla luce del sole/Josh Groban
Nocturne with No Moon/movie "The legend of 1900"
Were it Not for Grace/Larnelle Harris
Enchanted Glen/Phil Coulter

I'm just wondering if this will give any hints as to who is or isn't joining Ash in Issuh?
I'm just wondering if this will give any hints as to who is or isn't joining Ash in Issuh?
Black2 Trainer Card:
- Name: Dale Hudson
- Status: Competing in the Pokémon World Tournament Senior Cup
- Idols: Tucker Satoshi, Cynthia, Alder, Wallace, Lance
- Hometown: Aspertia City, Unova
- School: Aspertia Academy
- Class Rank: #17 out of 17 students
My Pokémon aren't just mindless tools. They're my friends and family
Now, will Zoey try to challenge Ash to win Dawn over?
Once again, the anime proves this sort of thing is ineffective. You have to do it like Drew, be smooth and base it around your connection to pokemon. Not jealously. Anyway Kenny was going into it already defeated, expecting Dawn to still go with Ash, and he was right.
...I'm confused...What was the letter about?
XDD The way she looked at the lighthouse I was like...OMG SHE'S GOING TO JOHTO lol Then...woops never mind! This would've been better w/ subtitles...
can someone post a link, where you guys saw the episode if its out?
^ Go onto Youtube and type in DP 180
...Did anyone else find this episode...depressing? It seemed sad with the slow music :/
EDIT: ...And the fact that Dawn looked up Steelix w/ her Pokedex...I'm Steelixed out @.@
It was Dawn's kind way of telling Kenny she does not want to travel with him. She said...I will continue traveling with Ash...we coordinators see each other in competitions anyway, so its fine...and you were kind of cool in the battle.
It is interesting, because the first thing Dawn said to Kenny about Ash was that he was so cool battling the gym leader. Either way, Dawn has no made any decisions of what to do after the League, and she is not following Kenny now or later.
Ash fan. Luffy fan. Gintoki fan-Gintama.
Multi Luffy {One Piece} and Ash {Pokemon} Shippers.
I'd lol if this made Kenny become a regular trainer XD jk jk But the thing with Dawn in Johto, I made more of the point because there is a lighthouse in Johto ^^; (not to mention w/ Jasmine, but that because of games and HG/SS) Really though...this episode didn't point out anything shippy between Ash and Dawn, just friendship really...:/ (besides one-sided penguinshipping)
I'd laugh if Dawn goes to Johto to advertise DP to all of the Johto-nians out there XD
Oh, so she said that someday she will meet him again, well that's another hint towards her departure, it's clear that Dawn is off to Johto after League, if she want's to see him again someday, because Isshu is to far away, and we know that Kenny is not heading to Isshu.
This is the actual translation to the letter.
It's never good when a girl tells you something starting with "sorry"....Im sorry. After all, I want to support Ash when he challanges the Sinnoh League.
I intend to decide my future goal after that.
...However, only this can be said clearly.
My dream is to become a top coordinator.
I don't know when it will happen, but it will surely come true.
People who have the same goal can surely meet somewhere.
She means they can see each other in contests, the same way they met May. But she does not want to travel together with him, that is only reserved for Ash and her wish to support him at all costs. Dawn's date is still open until the final episodes, when will Ash get his chance? We already had Zoey for Snowpoint, then Kenny for wherever it is he is going.
Well, maybe she means some time in the future.
Doesn't have to mean in a couple of months or some thing.
I'd like to say, while there wasn't really any thing shippy between DawnxAsh, the BunaryxPikachu storyline was supposed to compare. So maybe Dawn likes Ash too?
And besides, this was suppsed to really be a closer to Kenny's storyline now.
She said they were just friends in the letter, closing Penguineshipping in the end.
Ash fan. Luffy fan. Gintoki fan-Gintama.
Multi Luffy {One Piece} and Ash {Pokemon} Shippers.
OK I surrender. She chose Ash over Punching bag, cool.
Now I just want to know if there are contests in Isshu, well region is far away from current locations we know, people in Isshu might be unfamiliar with contests, because Isshu might the be paradise of other stuff.
Well, contests is very popular still.
I can't see them getting rid of them.
Maybe have some thing else along side contests.
Course, it'd be kind of hard to have three quests with three main characters.
Than if Brock does come, he'd be in the background more so this time LOL.
Ash fan. Luffy fan. Gintoki fan-Gintama.
Multi Luffy {One Piece} and Ash {Pokemon} Shippers.
I'm not quite sure who to blame the battle on, Ash or Buizel. For one thing, Ash knew that Kenny would be going with Empoleon, so if he was really serious, he would have gone with Pikachu or Infernape or even Torterra. After comparing their previous appearances, I'd come to the conclusion that Buizel was about the same power level as Empoleon, but I was apparently wrong. That poor little weasel got slaughtered. Hopefully he'll do better in the League.

Except that doesn't matter since he has a Drapion (I'll explain later)
The problem is Drake and Lance both had a Salamence and Dragonite respectively. The Shelgon and Dragonair's don't count just like Aaron's Skorupi because they are the same evolved line of their fully evolved forms.
What I meant is no E4 member nor Champion has a true unevolved form. They always have the fully evolved form somewhere on them. Like let's create a dragon Pokemon line right now: Dragini evolves into Dragana which evolves into Dragoness. No E4 member nor Champion would only have Dragana they would likely have Dragoness and if and only if they specialized in dragons and the choice was limited would they choose Dragana.
I will not say I'm the best. But by Ash's standards, I'm pretty good.
Some of you need to look at this before you comment on what a Pokemon should learn. Some of you are okay but some of you need to look at this: http://www.serebii.net/attackdex-bw/ This is the attackdex, it is your friend.
Meh...The letter's cute. Dawn makes it clear she wants to follow her dreams/goals. I can't help but laugh at the part where Brock decides to help Kenny (I half expected him to take out the golden scarf thing he gave to Butterfree XD)
Ash fan. Luffy fan. Gintoki fan-Gintama.
Multi Luffy {One Piece} and Ash {Pokemon} Shippers.
Wow, you sure showed those guys. You're right, it's only acceptable for a champion or E4 member to have an unevolved pokemon if they also have the final form of that pokemon. No way can the writers get away with giving Flint a Chimchar, at least not until they confirm that he also has an Infernape. What's with those writers; come on, guys, before you give Flint a Chimchar you need to give him an Infernape... oh wait, never mind.
Just for fun, I've run down the list of starter evolutions and made my own dub names for each of them. Just try and guess, I dare ya'.
Spoiler:- Starter Game:
Answers explained in link below
i'm sorry but I hate that kid, lol ..and him trying to make moves/all his stupid showing off to Dawn ticks me off even more.
How did Ash lose to Kenny ..like seriously? What kind of bull is that? I mean I'm not too big of a fan of Ash either, but ..HE SHOULD BEAT KENNY.
Zoey, please come and get your girl. Hurry!
lol shipping.

I really like the built in screen capture ability of OS/X. I specially like the ability to easily take a screen capture of only part of the screen by using Cmd+Shift+4. What I didn't like was the fact that it created a hell of a clutter on my desktop with all that screenshots.
For long time I've been just manually moving the screenshots to different folders / deleting them. But today I decided that enough is enough and looked for a solution. And of course a simple solution exists. To save you the reading here's a summary of what you need to do:
1. Open the Terminal.
2. Create a new folder for the screenshots by using mkdir, i.e.
mkdir /Users/Arik/Desktop/Screenshots
3. Run the following command:
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location [the-folder-you-created-in-step-2]
That's it. Almost. Now you need to logout and login again in order for the changes to take effect. Instead you can use the following command (from Terminal):
killall -HUP SystemUIServer
Now you really done.
Hope it helps.

MAHA Test Technology for Switzerland
MAHA Test Technology for Switzerland
Equipping of Heavy Goods Vehicle Center in RipshausenEquipping of Heavy Goods Vehicle Center in Ripshausen
MAHA technology is already well-known in Switzerland: quality which withstands the highest stresses and strains, the low downtimes, easy handling, test procedure automation, minimal maintenance needs,– that is, the enormously high functionality of MAHA equipment – are essential attributes for daily use and safety. Not for nothing does MAHA enjoy an 80% share of the equipment outfitting for organizations with testing systems!
Within the framework of a countrywide project titled >Intensification of the Heavy Goods Traffic Controls< Switzerland is setting up control centers which optimally enforce the existing regulations for drivers, vehicles and loads. This measure is a long-term investment in safety for Switzerland. Using the random sampling principle heavy goods vehicles are controlled at these heavy goods traffic centers. Driver, vehicle and loads are exposed to a comprehensive check. In Ripshausen, Erstfeld the first heavy goods traffic center of its kind has been opened for this purpose.
A prerequisite for the permanent success of this project is the cooperation with partners whose technical expertise level is extremely high. After all we are talking about functional safety in daily use– and under extremely high stresses and strain.
Together with the KSU/A-Technik AG (MAHA Dealer), who has been a main supplier of test equipment to testing organizations in Switzerland for many years thereby exhibiting a huge potential of experience, the heavy goods traffic center Ripshausen was realized and numerous MAHA equipment was installed.
The Heavy Goods Traffic Center Ripshausen is certainly one-of-a-kind in size, scope of services and equipment quality as well as provided services.
An essential speciality is that the IW7 EUROSYSTEM runs in a network which communicates with the system used by the police. That means that the test results are viewed instantly by the police and the corresponding measures can be initiated without losing time.
Following MAHA equipment was installed:
• Eurosystem IW7 test lane with scale
• Simultaneous TFT monitor 24" for measurement value display
• Side-slip tester MINC II
• Axle and joint play tester LMS 20/2 with radio hand-lamp and multi-function controls
• Pit jack PJH-Z 16.5/75
• Headlight tester LITE 1.1
• Emission tester MOD2 with RPM adapter Dispeed
• Decelerometer VZM 300
• Speed limit tester Speed Control SLT
• Brake fluid tester BFT 2000

Your first grader and math
Laying strong foundations: First graders learn about money, time, measurements, and more.
By GreatSchools Staff
The achievement gap, explained
Last fall results from national math exams stirred up a tempest in a standardized test. It turns out math scores rose more quickly before No Child Left Behind was implemented, and fourth-grade math scores haven't improved since 2007. As reported in the New York Times, the achievement gap remains a chasm between the haves and the have-nots.
What does this mean for your child? While pundits and politicians battle over the big issues, it's up to parents to stay on top of the little ones: their own kids' academic development. Keep tabs on what your first-grader should learn in math this year with our grade-based milestones. Of course, math curricula still vary widely from state to state as school districts grapple with how to implement the Common Core Standards, so these are merely guidelines. For a better sense of how your child's schoolwork compares, look up your state's math standards, see what the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics recommends for preschool through high school, or read through the Common Core Standards for math.

- Okay so I was actually able to find a hard copy of the new How To Destroy Angels at a major, corporate outlet. I know what you're thinking: "what's a hard copy??" I was there to pay bills, not to record shop. So it was a nice treat; because — and I might be in the minority here — I do like owning a CD much better than just having it on my computer. Granted, this will get thrown onto my computer at some point… I just have yet to do that cause I've been blasting it through the stereo for the past few days.
So how is it, right? Fucking awesome. I'm loving this album. And it's scary because like I've said in the past… I think I like this stuff more than I ever did NIN. And I consider myself a Nine Inch Nails fan, too. Mariqueen Maandig, as she's credited in the liner notes, does a miraculous job breathing more life into into an ever expanding body of Trent Reznor production. I'm fairly certain I wouldn't enjoy this as much if it was a purely Reznor sung collection of music. Not that he doesn't sing. He does, only a little. It makes his vocal appearances all the more exciting, and even haunting, when he's not around all the time. To say this album is simply a showcase of Maandig's etheral, spot-on vocals would be beyond misleading of me though. Indeed Atticus Ross and Reznor alike really bring their A games to the table here: using their illustrious pasts apart, their work together on David Fincher soundtracks, and something new and simple as a very like-minded production team. I guess when you go back and really listen to the soundtracks they've done — particularly The Social Network — it is pretty simple music, really. On the surface at least. Those more ambient leanings appear on "Welcome Oblivion"; they just sit behind some really catchy, borderline basic, Electro/Industrial beats that sound like they've ripped directly from a late 90′s MPC. Catching a theme here? This record manages to combine simplicity with a more organic brand of Electronic music, which oddly creates a forward-thinking sound. "A house on fire/burning all the past away." Haunting, progressive, simple, organic… like the future. This is future music.
- Stained glass water-tower. Brooklyn. By Tom Fruin.
- "Iran shipping Chinese weapons to Yemen" sounds like a Tom Clancy novel's starting point… but:
"As the article makes clear, the Iranians, via the Revolutionary Guard Corps, are accelerating the volume and sophistication of weapons supplies transferred to extent and potential proxies in the region. In the case of Yemen, that's the Houthi rebellion. In all cases, Iran's support is to Shi'a or Shi'a offshoot groups fighting Sunni government or groups. The qualitative escalation is symbolized by the presence of Chinese-manufactured manpads—the QW-1M. These weapons come from a Chinese state-owned company already sanctioned by the U.S. government for illegal arms dealing.
What are Iranian and Chinese officials thinking (and let me note that in neither case can we assume a monolithic government decision system)?"

I just returned from the SIG (Sourcing Interest Group) Summit in beautiful Amelia Island Florida where Martha Crow, SVP, and I presented. We spoke with many great companies while we were there enjoying the conference and one recurring question that seemed to come up over and over again is "What makes a good crowd project for the Enterprise?".
That is a great question because crowdsourcing has evolved significantly to accommodate the growing demand from enterprises for more cost-efficient, flexible staffing options. While the industry started with companies crowdsourcing minor tasks, the shift over the last few years has been to tackle bigger and more complex projects that require a wide array of skills, often necessitating a workforce with a global footprint.
So, how does a manager determine whether a project is a good candidate for an enterprise crowdsourcing engagement?
Human Intelligence
Most managers' initial inclination is likely to eliminate the HR element entirely and send it off to the semi-conductor farm to be crunched by the computers. While there have been enormous advances in data recognition and processing software, there is still a major gap between machine intelligence and the innately human ability of deduction. It's this deductive reason that allows a person to make the subjective decisions that go into product testing, rating content relevancy, or summarizing content. Therefore, the first major qualifier for a project's potential for a crowdsourcing solution is the actual need for human input. Humans are also needed to accurately transcribe audio while accounting for regional dialects, slang, etc. One of the unique attributes of the crowd is its borderless footprint, which enables a crowd provider to reach into a global pool of workers to identify those with the very specific regional and local language knowledge necessary for such projects.
Volume and Fluctuation
The next consideration is the sheer volume of tasks and the fluctuation in that work. For the most part, projects with large volumes of tasks/data/work are usually the best projects for a crowd as they can be done, better, faster and cheaper with a crowd. Additionally, one of the key benefits of crowdsouring is its "elasticity" – the ability to ramp the workforce up and down quickly and efficiently. In any project, workloads are going to ebb and flow throughout and crowdsourcing's output-based pricing structure will prevent a company from being saddled with hundreds or thousands of FTEs twiddling their collective thumbs when workloads temporarily wane. While there is some ramp up time associated with upsizing the crowd demanded for a project, the crowdsourcing model will accommodate both the high level of human-required tasks and the potential ebb and flow of that workload.
A perfect example of this ebb and flow is data entry associated with seasonal tax processing. To overcome that staffing demand, the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue tapped into our Enterprise Crowdsourcing platform to handle the irregular surge. Besides the savings on full time staff costs, personnel training, etc., the PA DOR was able to cut costs, improve data accuracy, and increase processing turnaround times by 70 percent!
Work Type
The final criteria for a "crowd-worthy" project comes down to whether the component jobs within the overall project can be redesigned to be handled by the crowd, and are essentially repeatable. Because most jobs are created with a full-time staffer in mind, they often need to be broken down and rebuilt to function within the crowd. Each task is also infinitely repeatable so once the task is designed the crowd can be scaled to meet the demand for that specific job activity. In the above example of the PA DOR, we were able to use our proprietary crowd platform and our vcapture Snippet technology to divide each tax form into unidentifiable components (protecting personal data) to be processed by a private crowd of workers located within Pennsylvania to keep the work local. With the data appropriately compartmentalized, we could easily ramp up the works to support that flow of data as tax season reached its spring crescendo.
With these basic guidelines, enterprise-level project managers should be able to make an initial diagnosis of their projects to determine whether crowdsourcing can help them execute a more cost-effective solution. If you're reading this thinking you might have a project in mind, reach out to me, Dori Albert, at firstname.lastname@example.com to see if we can ultimately give you a bigger and better bang for your buck. If your interest is only piqued, you can always take a look at our enterprise crowdsourcing primer, or a this white paper that provides some great examples of enterprises using the crowd.
I was recently summoned to a client's headquarters for what I was told was a "serious issue." When I arrived, I was met by two Study Leaders, a Senior Project Manager and the Head of Procurement—a distinguished audience by any measure. Straight away, I was informed that a validated instrument had been translated by our team, and it was grossly inaccurate. Needless to say, I was at a loss as to how this disaster happened, given our ISO certifications, rigorous quality methodologies and SOPs. But then, something clicked in my head and I realized that, although we did quote for this project, it was not awarded to Lionbridge Life Sciences.
Buyer Beware
It turned out that another language translation provider had executed the project. Given that validated instruments were not a regular part of the provider's discipline, they had failed to perform any sort of Cognitive Debriefing or Pilot Testing. Moreover, it appeared they had used less-than-optimal translators for the project. Continue reading »
Given the rapid shift of a Broadcast to Digital marketing operations model, it's no surprise that marketing departments struggle with the day-to-day execution of their digital marketing and lead generation programs.
In the old Broadcast operations model, Agencies were responsible for everything: creative, ad timing, execution, and analytics – with no direct interaction with customers. Life was so easy then!
Enter the Digital Age, where companies are now responsible for all of these tasks formerly borne by the Agencies. The knee-jerk reaction for a lot of companies was to invest in enterprise software, in hopes that it would replace a lot of the work that the Agencies formerly performed. Unfortunately, the reality is that there is a big gap between marketing objectives and software functionality. Most companies have limited resources to maintain software while managing the day-to-day details of campaigns without knowing if their software investments have paid off.
Stanford Graduate School of Business sponsored a research report in March 2013 that explores the business value and adoption trends of B2B Managed Services. Philosophically, I've long been a fan of this approach that includes a services framework defined by dynamic KPIs and key technologies to support the overall strategy. My favorite quote from the Stanford report:
"Companies continue to struggle to get return on investment from the traditional licensed software model, which rewards the technology vendor, regardless if the projects are successful or not. This new research from Stanford provides further proof that the B2B Managed Services model not only offers lower cost, but higher business value than traditional approaches to integration."
The report goes on to describe two primary benefits of a Managed Services approach:
1) Financial Benefits. This includes improved cost visibility, savings from streamlining operations, lower direct software costs, and fewer dependencies on IT resources.
2) Customer Engagement. Companies surveyed in the report said that their customers found it easier to do business with them.
Financial benefits and higher customer engagement. In today's challenging economic climate, is there anything else? Check out the full report here.
Has your organization adopted a Managed Services approach with your key suppliers? What's working? What's on your "wish list?" I'd love to hear your thoughts. Reach out to me on Twitter @AllisonLIOX.

Engineering is an iterative process. Product development is a non-linear project. Technical documentation is a fluid content type.
Simply put: expect change.
Sometimes a parts vendor alters the equipment design. Oftentimes, errors or malfunctions are not evident until testing and modeling, or once customer use reveals them. Always, someone is revising, improving, increasing performance. Whatever the source, Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) are an essential part of the development process. In fact, a third of them are considered critical and endanger the overall success of the project, according to a study in Denmark. Continue reading »
You know what's funny? I'm still a little amazed every time I see a contextual display ad about something I recently shopped for. (I guess that's funny-weird, not funny-haha. Sorry if I got your hopes up.)
But you know the feeling, right? You're minding your own business, reading an article, or you're using a web-based email program like Gmail. All of a sudden, you see an ad for the exact pair of shoes you were looking at on Zappos last Tuesday. I get this thought that lasts for like a millisecond, "What a weird coincidence!" before my brain kicks in and I remember that companies have data. Lots of it – and some of it is about me. And they're using it to get my attention. Continue reading »

I was planning on a quiet August. But the dog days of this August have been anything but quiet or dull. Breaking news has been interrupted by more breaking news. Libya was pre-empted by a rare east-cost 5.8 magnitude earthquake, with an epicenter near Washington (prompting political jokes such as the Earthquake was all Obama's or Bush's "fault", depending on your political persuasion.) Then the earthquake was pre-empted by Hurricane Irene barrelling up the east coast.
Stuck somewhere in between the earthquake and Irene was Google's announcement of its translate API v2 — a pay-for-play version of its translate API. Continue reading »

There's more, but you have to see it in motion to believe it . . .
She looks ready for cheerleading!
whoa! How does she do that? It looks awesome.
She's got amazing balance!
What fun! Very cool.
Fun! My husband saw these over my shoulder and asked our son why he couldn't do that. Hopefully they won't start trying ;)
This baby has talent!!!! Where's her superhero cape?
Wow! That little girl is amazing, What a proud daddy, I am sure mommy is too. Kim
Now that looks like an act that should go public! :)
My dad used to hold us up like this when we were little.
He would always say "stay stiff as a board".
My mom was always a little nervous when he did this.
Wow! She looks so comfortable doing it. Not afraid at all. Great pics :)
Wow...that is SO cool! She's got a great sense of balance...I've heard that babies can do this very easily, but we've never tried it yet. ;)
wow she has some amazing balance for a little girl!!
Haaaa - these are simply adorable. What a fun series!
Wow! That is amazing :) Such cute pics.
That is quite amazing.
I bet she'd grow up to be a gymnast or a ballerina.... her sense of balance is just uncanny! :)
My husband used to do this with my boys...I would flip, but they were fine. Now they are too big! She is an absolute doll!
I love these shots! My husband did something very similar with my daughter when she was younger.
Wow! Talk about balance...I am impressed!!! Thanks for stopping by my site and loo forward to having you stop by again in the future!

As you are all aware Jervis dropped a nugget or two at the Chicago Gamesday recently, discussing Necrons amongst other things. [as reported on BoLS]
"1:00pm...Jervis spoke:
-The Studio loves the idea of Chaos Legion specific codices. It will allow GW to build Legion specific models, but is still a while off.
-Necrons are further along that that, and Mike (???, unclear) has been dropping hints of what we may see in an upcoming Necron codex in various books."
From the Gamesday thread, reposted in an attempt to kick start this discussion away from the distort of all of the other gamesday rumours and notices.
The purpose of this thread is to try and get some idea of whoever Mike <accent distorted> may be, what hints may have been dropped to date and the like.

Can tonsil stones go away on their own? I'm wondering if I had one a few weeks ago because my throat had a weird growth at the back of it but DH wouldn't help me investigate it. It's difficult to investigate your own mouth.
Huh, I still have my tonsils, have allergies that make my sinuses feel like they're congealing when triggered and never got a tonsil stone. For which I'm grateful, they sound thoroughly awful.
...Which reminds me of the time my ex and the roommate were cleaning out the overdue cat box...and all I heard from the other room was my roommate howling "EWWWWWWW ERMAHGAWD IT'S IN MY EAR!!!!!!"

25 March 2000
The Ministry of Fisheries Deputy Chief Technical Officer has issued a direction under the Biosecurity Act that the trawler Seafresh 1 must be moved from Hanson Bay on the Chatham Islands where it sank last week.
The trawler was found on Thursday to be carrying the Asian seaweed, undaria, which has been determined to be an unwanted organism.
Experts believe that undaria is not present on the Chatham Islands. The hull of the Seafresh 1 is likely to harbour juvenile and microscopic stages of the plant which have the potential to grow rapidly, reproduce and become a long-term potential source of undaria that could inoculate the Chatham Islands.
Under the terms of the direction the vessel must be moved within 30 days and either sunk in at least 1500 metres of water, or relocated to an area in which undaria already exists.
The Ministry stated that the decision to declare undaria an unwanted organism did not affect consultation now underway for a National Marine Pest Strategy.
