WILLMAR -- Workers were still completing many of the final details late last week at the new Therapy Suites at Rice Care Center, but the end was in sight. This week the Rice Care Center will show off the brand-new $2 million facility during a series of open houses, winding up with an open house and tours for the community from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The town of Madison was thronged Sunday for its 125th an-niversary celebration and all-school reunion. The hot, muggy weather didn't stop people from having a good time, said Maynard Meyer, head of the Madison Chamber of Commerce and general manager of KLQP Radio. "We had a few thousand people in town for the celebration," he said. But it wasn't until afterward that Madison learn-ed of the weather distinction it earned Sunday: The town was reportedly the only place in the western hemisphere, besides the Amazon rain forest, to re-cord a dew point in the 80s that day. How did Madison do it?
WILLMAR -- The workforce at Rice Memorial Hospital is leaner than ever -- and increasingly experienced and highly trained. Through streamlining and efficiencies, the number of employees at the city-owned hospital and its entities, which include the Rice Care Center and Rice Rehabilitation Center, continues to be pared down. Last year Rice had 856 workers on the payroll; just three years earlier there were 969. The average age of employees has inched up to just under 46.
WILLMAR -- If you do the math, sisters Colleen Barber, Cheryl Plathe and Marian Bloom have collectively donated nearly 300 pints of blood over the past four decades. The sisters notched up another three units Monday at the American Red Cross Bloodmobile -- enough to earn Barber, 59, and Plathe, 57, their 12-gallon pins.
KERKHOVEN -- Sixties-era music wafts from outdoor speakers at Sophie's Ice Cream Station, where another busy summer day is about to begin. Within minutes, the first customer of the day shows up to buy a late-morning ice cream cone. "Great idea!" he exclaims to the owners, Ted and Kari Jo Almen, as he walks back to his truck. The little ice cream parlor has hit a sweet spot in Kerkhoven. When the Almens decided to renovate an old-fashioned gas station for their teenaged daughters to sell ice cream, they weren't entirely sure what to expect.
WILLMAR -- A state government shutdown could swiftly become damaging for the at-risk youths who participate in the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development's youth job programs, say those who work with the programs. It's not just young people who will be out of work during the shutdown, said Rita Borchert, youth program manager for Central Minnesota Jobs and Training Service. Businesses who partner with the state to provide jobs through the work experience program also will lose these employees for the duration of a shutdown, she said. "I think it's going to be astonishin
WILLMAR -- In what's being described as a matchmaking event for animal science innovators and investors, the MinnWest Technology Foundation is hosting its first-ever animal science venture forum in September. Organizers want to bring a select group of people together and see what happens when ideas are swapped, connections are made and new partnerships developed. Just maybe, it could lead to the establishment of a new, cutting-edge company specializing in the animal sciences, says Joanna Schrupp, project assistant at the technology campus. "You never know what's going to happen when convers
WILLMAR -- A construction contract was awarded Tuesday for the kitchen at the Willmar Middle School to receive a makeover. The $216,500 project will be finished by the time school starts in fall. Members of the Willmar School Board held a special meeting Tuesday to approve the contract with Carlson Construction of Willmar, which was the lowest of three bidders for the project. Over the next couple of months, the kitchen will be reconfigured to create more space for the staff and a more efficient serving line for students. In the 40-plus years since the middle school was built, the kitchen
WILLMAR -- Life Link III medical helicopters are likely to become a more familiar sight in the skies over Willmar in upcoming months. The medical transportation service is basing a helicopter and crew at Rice Memorial Hospital in Willmar on a six-month trial basis, starting this week.
WILLMAR -- In the past couple of years, the stack of applications from young people wanting a job at the Willmar Dairy Queen has been thicker than owner Fred Anderson has ever seen. "That means there's a lot of kids looking for work," said Anderson. Youths are being edged out of the job market in record numbers in Minnesota. Workers between the ages of 16 and 19 have the highest unemployment rate of any demographic.

Regulation FD Disclosure
Pursuant to 17 CFR Part 243 ("Regulation FD"), Zillow, Inc. ("Zillow") is submitting below information relating to its monthly unique user metrics.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information under this item shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. This report will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information required to be disclosed solely to satisfy the requirements of Regulation FD.
On August 8, 2011, Zillow released monthly unique user metrics for each month in the period from January 2010 to July 2011 on the Investor Relations page of Zillow's website at http://investors.zillow.com/events.cfm. Zillow measures unique users with Omniture analytical tools. Beginning in July 2011, the reported monthly unique users include the effect of adding unique user traffic from Zillow's March 2011 acquisition of Postlets LLC ("Postlets") to Zillow's core traffic metrics, as Zillow recently finalized the integration of Postlets' traffic into Omniture.
Zillow counts a unique user each time an individual accesses either Zillow.com or Postlets.com using a different web browser during a calendar month, and each time an individual accesses Zillow's mobile applications using a unique mobile device during a calendar month. If an individual accesses Zillow's websites using different web browsers within a given month, the first access by each such web browser is counted as a separate unique user. If an individual accesses both Zillow.com and Postlets.com in a single month, the first access to each website is counted as a separate unique user since unique users are tracked separately for each domain. Each first instance of access to Zillow's mobile applications by a unique mobile device is counted as a separate unique user.
The following table summarizes Zillow's monthly unique users for Zillow's websites and mobile applications:

Called "one of the most fully immersive shows ever to wallop Broadway" by The New York Times, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a record-breaking theatrical phenomenon that simply must not be missed.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Two reasons made me take my decision: One, the unsanitary situation of the facilities and the other, I was going away from the country for two months.
I must add that the manager at the moment, left me waiting for more than 1 hour and when I requested to speak to him, I was told that "He was gone", even I saw him leaving the premises right after this event, ignoring me. Rude and unprofessional way to deal with customers!
Days later(June the 13Th), I came back to request the same. I signed two "Cancelation forms" and I was told everything was cleared but the clerk also suggested to call a 800 number to "speed the process".
Whenever I call the given number, my call was denied by an answering machine because "We not recognize the information".
When I came back from my trip, I found 6 more monthly statements (3 for me; 3 for my daughter) charging the total of $126.83.
I inmediately called to a phone number on the statement and, luckily, this time I was able to speak with a real person who told me that I must pay this amount since I did not send proof of my cancelation to them.
Since I found this response too unfair, I decided to write this report in order to get help from you and, somehow, to warn other customers about this frustrating situation.
Thanks for your attention and help.

Thank you to all of the volunteers and sponsors of this year's 29th Annual We Give Thanks Thanksgiving Day Event!
Because of your support we were able to provide over 13,000 free meals to those in need on this special day. We look forward to seeing you next year!
Our Cause
In addition to providing a Thanksgiving Day feast to the homeless and less fortunate, The We Give Thanks Thanksgiving Dinner has become a meeting point where anyone not wanting to spend this festive time of year alone can come and enjoy a great meal, entertainment, and the friendly company of thousands of others from Southern California.
The mission of We Give Thanks is to enhance the well-being of the less fortunate in Southern California by making ongoing efforts and contributions to their well-being. We carry out this mission through various service activities. This includes bringing our community together on Thanksgiving Day for a special holiday meal, entertainment, and meeting place.

Our History
For over 20 years, We Give Thanks has been helping those in need in the greater Orange County and Los Angeles areas.
Frank Garcia, founder of We Give Thanks, felt blessed that his family had food and shelter but he knew that many families lacked his good fortune.
Believing Thanksgiving is a special day to give thanks for God's gifts, Garcia decided serve a free Thanksgiving Day dinner to families in need in the parking lot of his family owned restaurant, La Casa Garcia. Each year the number of persons increased and soon surpassed 15,000.
This upcoming Thanksgiving will mark the 29th Annual Thanksgiving Dinner. Although the location has changed from the parking lot of La Casa Garcia to Honda Center, the purpose of the dinner has remained the same: To serve a free Thanksgiving dinner to individuals and families in need.
Biography of Frank Garcia
As a child in Bishop, Texas, Frank Garcia learned many valuable lessons from his father, born in Mexico, and from his mother, born in Texas, who valued hard work, pride in being an American citizen, thankfulness for the daily gifts of life, and the importance of helping others. Moving to southern California in 1961, Garcia founded several restaurants including La Casa Garcia Restaurant in Anaheim in 1973, which soon became a leading Orange County restaurant through the dedicated commitment of Frank, his wife Silvia, and their children, Frank, Jr., Johnny, Cindy, Veronica, and Silvia.
The childhood lessons Garcia learned instilled a sense of community, a need to give to others, and the inspiration to establish We Give Thanks Inc., a nonprofit corporation, which has served free Thanksgiving dinners to Southern Californians in need for nearly two decades—to date, more than 200,000 meals.
In 2001, We Give Thanks established an annual Women of Vision Awards Dinner in memory of his mother to recognize women with exceptional commitments to community service. Proceeds from this event benefit the We Give Thanks Scholarship Program, which assists local students in need. In 2005, Garcia traveled to Corpus Christi, Texas after Hurricane Katrina to serve tens of thousands of hot meals to evacuees. We Give Thanks has also served orphanages in Tijuana, Mexico, distributing food, toys, computers, and school supplies. Frank Garcia is committed to serving persons in need with compassion and instilling the spirit of giving to others.

Anxiety About the Final Round
Mr. Vuturo worked as a strategic planning manager at VR Mergers & Acquisitions, a Tampa-based firm for mid-market companies, before losing his position in January 2008. He now spends his time searching for new management opportunities and has taken on short-term business development projects and other work to make ends meet and garner leads. Mr. Vuturo lives in Tampa, Fla.
Hanging out in limbo during the last 14 months of my job search has been tough and a little harder with each passing day. It's easy to get overwhelmed, as things have a tendency to snowball in the mind's eye. Issues and concerns that otherwise wouldn't matter are seemingly everywhere. And just to clarify, I'm not just talking about things like paying the bills.
When I started my search, I would have bet my life that it wouldn't take three months to find a new opportunity. And not just a new opportunity but the right opportunity, an ideal I steadfastly maintained pretty much through the end of last year. I wasn't looking for just any job; I was looking for a career.
However, as the search dragged on, that ideal disappeared. I told myself that a job was a job was a job, and that I was no longer in any position to pick and choose. Unfortunately, by this point the state of our economy had severely deteriorated, and a shift in focus was not yielding any better results.
Admittedly, about a month ago I had lost all the wind in my sails and was so burnt out that I didn't apply to a single position for two weeks. The thought of an application made my stomach turn. I allowed myself to succumb to self-doubt, having reached a point where I was convinced my efforts had no impact.
Then at the least expected moment, from the least expected outlet, some daylight. Bored to death on a Saturday afternoon, my mother, responding to a post generated by automated search results, came up with nothing less than an ideal opportunity -– though she had no clue at the time. (My mother has helped ever since the beginning, but she has a limited understanding of what opportunities constitute a perfect fit. For every five jobs she emails me, I probably apply for one. My sister helps an equal amount, and has a better understanding of what it is I'm looking for.)
But this time, I was flying back home to Chicago for the interview within days.
Long story short, here I am again. Waiting. There is no wait like the wait for a response from a final-round interview. So close, yet so far away.
I'd like to say I did something different in this interview, but probably not. All I can say is I threw the kitchen sink at them. I know I'm in the final three for consideration, but I'm sure, as in the other instances, that I'm battling candidates with superior experience.
Problem is, I've been here before, only to miss the final hurdle. It hurts. But I guess for now, at least I'm waiting.
Readers, how do you cope with anxiety from a final-round interview? Share your experiences in the comments section.

There were some tense moments Tuesday at Maysville High School after the discovery of a bomb threat. The Muskingum County Sheriff's Office was told about the threat at 8:15 this morning. Maysville School Superintendent Monte Bainer says the bomb threat came in the form of a written note on a bathroom stall. Sheriff Matt Lutz says the 6-thru-12 school building was evacuated and area fire departments, along with the Sheriff's Office K-9 unit did a sweep of the building. Just after 11:00 this morning the school site was cleared by investigators. The Sheriff's office is now conducting an investigation to try and find out who wrote the note. There were no injuries reported.

FX renews 'The Americans' for Season 2
Keri Russell/Matthew Rhys drama gets 13 more episodes
Buoyed by strong audience and critical response, rather than somewhat lackluster ratings, FX has renewed "The Americans" for a second season.
FX announced on Thursday (February 21) that it has picked up a 13-episode second season for "The Americans," a renewal that comes only four episodes into the period drama's first season.
Set in 1981, "The Americans" stars Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell as a pair of KBG agents deep undercover in the United States. Noah Emmerich plays the FBI agent who just happens to live across the street.
"'The Americans has quickly established itself as a key part FX's acclaimed drama line-up," blurbs FX President John Landgraf. "Executive Producers Joe Weisberg, Joel Fields and Graham Yost and their collaborators are telling riveting and deeply emotional stories and the performances of Keri Russell, Matthew Rhys, Noah Emmerich and the entire cast are simply outstanding. The show is truly worthy of its widespread critical acclaim and we are confident that its quality will continue to yield a robust and passionate audience."
Adds series creator Weisberg, "We're very grateful to John Landgraf, Nick Grad, Eric Schrier and everyone at FX for their unwavering support of our show. We're thrilled to be able to continue writing stories for such an incredibly talented cast led by Keri, Matthew and Noah. This has been an amazing experience for me and it couldn't have happened without the tireless efforts of our cast and crew. We appreciate the support of the audience and we believe they have a lot to look forward to the rest of this season."
"The Americans" premiered last month with FX's must-watched series debut, with 5.11 million total viewers in Live+7 figures. After a steep decline in its second week and another drop in its third airing, the show's fourth episode had a small rebound. FX notes that the first three episodes have added 44 percent, 58 percent and 63 percent in time-shifted viewing so that "The Americans" has averaged 3.63 million viewers, including 1.87 million in the key 18-49 demographic, on a Live+3 basis for those three episodes.
FX will marathon the first five "Americans" episodes on Friday, March 1. The first season finale is set for May 1.

$22.50 calls, $2.40. 30 of them. The earnings report should be interesting. I expect Huge book value gains based on what I saw over at CYS. I also expect they moved some of their portfolio into nonagency now. $24 book estimate.
I sold all MTGE @25.63 will wait till next pull back
It seems that is a reasonable thing to do. I bought calls in NCT today. When I am bullish I buy the stock and an equal number of calls. When something trades under 8, the stock is like a deep in the money call with no expiration. I will probably sell them after the peak trading at 10am and buy CXS calls. they are trading at 11.30 with book at 12 and an 18% div increase Q3.Bullish earnings expectation.
REITs may again be viewed as the most durable investment in the current climate. With the fed propping up book value and divs in the 10+% range, investors will be happy with a little gain vs big risk.
I shorted 7000 shares today against my 70 22.50 calls.
I bought more calls. 22.50 calls. $2.25. 10 of them. Broader market causing more price volatility.
I bought 10 more calls. 22.50. $2.15. total of 50 now.
I agree with your assessment on book value and non-agency will be given greater emphasis. I think we will see a 4-6% rise in BV. I also think that asset sales will be given more emphasis, core will take a hit but comprehensive and taxable income will be sufficient to maintain the divy. GL
I see little to no hit to core earnings ....

I want to add a coupon code to give a discount of GBP 3.20, but EVNTRG always saves the discount as £3, rather than £3.20. No matter what numbers I put after the decimal point, only the whole £ are saved.
I've tried different currencies just in case it's a quirk of GBP but the same thing happens.
This happens with WP v3.5.2 and v3.6.1.
Can anyone help? Thanks.

Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 45 mins
From: "The Africa News Cookbook, African Cooking for Western Kitchens".
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 large onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin seed
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds (the black kind, if possible)
- 8 medium potatoes, quartered
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons fresh ginger, crushed
- 1 large garlic clove, minced and crushed
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon whole coriander seed, crushed
- 2 chili peppers (I will used a lesser amount of crushed red pepper flakes.) or 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (I will used a lesser amount of crushed red pepper flakes.)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 cinnamon sticks
- 6 cloves
- 4 ounces tomato paste
- 1⁄2 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
- 1⁄2 small cauliflower, broken into pieces
- 1 medium eggplant, cut into chunks
- 8 ounces green peas (fresh or frozen)
- 8 ounces leafy greens, chopped (small bunch, fresh or frozen, kale, spinach, collards, swiss chard, etc.)
- 1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained (garbanzo beans)
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a large, heavy skillet or pot, brown onions in moderately hot oil along with the cumin seeds and mustard seeds.
- Add the potato pieces and stir to coat each piece with spices.
- Add remaining spices and continue to stir for several minutes.
- Thin the tomato paste with 2/3 cup of water and stir into the pot.
- Add vegetables, one at a time, cooking for a minute or so between each addition, add chickpeas last.
- If your pot isn't oven proof transfer mixture to one that is and cover with a lid or seal with foil, and bake for about 45 minutes, checking after the first 20 minutes.
- The consistency of this curry should be thick, rather than watery, but add more liquid if needed to prevent burning. Stir occasionally to keep ingredients from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Serve over rice or with Indian bread.

Wonderful recipe, full of flavour and healthy too! My favourite vegetarian curry and I have tried a fair few. I will definately be making this again.
I love this recipe so much. I'm a big fan of vegetables, so making them into a hearty, flavorful, healthy, filling dinner is always a five star recipe in my book. I served mine over brown rice, and it tasted, and made me feel, so good.
This is a very nutritious and yummy curry. Not very spicy which was good for my friend that was eating with the family today, but maybe next time I'll add a little more cayenne to spice it up for myself. ;) Enjoyed this with couscous. This was such a healthy, delicious meal. Thank you! Made for ZWT4 - Go Jefes!

When I called the manager it took at least one week to call me back and discuss the situation. We agreed on the technician coming every other month, but after a couple of months they never returned back but kept sending via US mail the $ 80 bill, never called back even when they claimed that they did.In July 2012, they sent me an early termination fee for $ 185.00 that is not in the contract and nobody ever called me back after many attempts from my part.
Last month I called the corporate office and after I asked for the supervisor, this lady started treating me like I was lying, she obviously told the the district manager would call me later that day, but again nobody called me.... Avoid this company.
Their wildlife and animal service agreement said: "while under contract we will take necessary steps to ensure the home is free of rodents" without any other clauses or any other ways to cancel the contract if they do not perform their work....
I do not think that they are a serious company....

Hopkins: Floyd Mayweather is Not Taking Canelo Lightly
By Rick Reeno
IBF light heavyweight champion Bernard Hopkins says Floyd Mayweather Jr. (44-0, 26KOs) is taking WBC/WBA junior middleweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (42-0-1, 30KOs) very seriously. The fight, which is contracted for a catch-weight of 152-pounds, happens later tonight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Showtime Pay-Per-View will carry the card.
For weeks, Mayweather has been attacking Canelo's past opponents and downplaying his career accomplishments. The verbal attacks and some of Mayweather's televised antics are nothing more than mind games, says Hopkins.
"What Floyd is pointing out, as far as I can tell...I can't put words in his mouth or in his head, but he's pointing out things to make them second guess what they're thinking and what they think they've done. If I say to you - 'you fought this guy, you fought that guy, you fought that guy's brother.' That's just me telling you that you know you have doubts because you didn't fight qualified people. Floyd is not underestimating nobody because that's not in his makeup. He lives, whether you like or not, to show and prove that he can say and do whatever he likes and still go to the well - whether it's in training, or fighting in the ring," Hopkins told BoxingScene.com.
"He wants to show that I can drink Coca Cola, that I can eat this or eat that. As a matter of fact I can eat skittles and I can still go out there and beat you. But he ain't doing that all the time. He just ate it that second, or that minute, but he's not doing that all the time. So we get sucked into thinking that's him, but that's not him. That's him for the cameras. You think that he's coming to a gun fight without a gun and he's got five of them with the exra clip."

Definition of rondeau in English:
noun (plural rondeaux /-dōz/ /ˈdōz/)
A thirteen-line poem, divided into three stanzas of 5, 3, and 5 lines, with only two rhymes throughout and with the opening words of the first line used as a refrain at the end of the second and third stanzas.
Example sentences
- Their fourth exercise/poem was their choice of a form using repetition or refrain: a villanelle, rondeaux, traditional ghazal, glosa, sestina or pantoum.
- The refrain of his rondeau is 'drop the saxophone, Danton, and get on with the show.'
- It may be that the most difficult poetic form isn't the sestina or the rondeau redoublé but a modernist, free-verse form commonly known as the 'skinny' poem: three-, two-, and often one-word lines expose the poet's every gesture.
Early 16th century: French, later form of rondel (see rondel).
Words that rhyme with rondeaucondo, rondo, secondo, tondo

3G 4G WiFi Maps & Speed Test
- August 26, 2016
( 316,559)
Top Developer
With OpenSignal you can see cell towers around you on a map, and the signal compass points you in the direction you need to walk in to improve your connection immediately.
✓ Signal compass points you in the direction your signal is coming from
✓ Widget
SMS Permission required to count the number of SMS sent to track your usage, SMS are never read (use a packet sniffer to check!)
Advanced notes:
If you read to here (!) you should really join the OpenSignal beta to help us improve the app:
✓ Signal compass points you in the direction your signal is coming from
✓ Map and radar view of cell towers and Wifi routers
✓ Speed test for download, upload and latency
✓ Coverage maps allow you see the best/worst places for 2G, 3G and 4G
✓ See local cell towers
✓ Free and ad-free
✓ Widget
✓ Share your findings and compare your connection with other users
✓ Personal statistics on your signal quality
✓ Set live wallpaper that changes with signal strength - see http://opnsg.nl/signal-wallpaper
✓ Save data to your SD Card
SMS Permission required to count the number of SMS sent to track your usage, SMS are never read (use a packet sniffer to check!)
Phone settings permission allows network reset on certain Android versions
Based on our community-generated data we are able to help keep you better connected by giving you a practical solution to the problems of slow mobile internet and dropped calls. Simply follow our signal compass to walk towards better phone signal or see our in-app coverage maps to work out which carrier is best for where you are, useful if you're thinking about changing. Our wifi maps help you find local public-access wireless networks (WAPs).
The Stats tab helps you to keep track of your usage, so there's no danger of you going over your plan limit on data, voice or text. (NB – this is why the app needs permission to access contacts and SMS, these are the permissions needed to count calls and texts, messages are never accessed or read!).
We use Google Maps in our apps, email us if you cannot access Google Maps, email us to request another map technology.
Maps not updated in real-time. Don't worry though, we log the information you share with us to improve our coverage maps and signal information. We're working hard to make sure the data you contribute to the project is available to everyone as quickly as possible.
- Not all towers and wireless routers are in our database - we're working on it!
- Verizon & Sprint (CDMA) users will see only one connected tower at a time
- Moving in the direction of your cell tower (the signal compass) will not always improve reception due to interference effects/local geography.
Advanced notes:
- For GSM, cell tower are identified via cell id and location area code (CID and LAC)
- For CDMA cell towers are identified via Network ID, Base sub-station ID and system ID (NID, BSSID and SID).
If you read to here (!) you should really join the OpenSignal beta to help us improve the app:
Formerly: opensignalmaps
25th August update is big improvement but has still not solved the problem of there being no line showing which cell tower my phone is connected to. My position and local towers are however shown. A pity this missing line problem still has not been fixed, otherwise the app works well and the new look is a big improvement. Hence due to missing line still only two stars. Would be five stars if the line problem could be fixed. Hope future updates solve problem.
Perfect signal??? Not sure if i just dont get it or it doesnt work. I have advanced turned on and getting -51 100% of d time. Have not seen a different rating yet at home, at work, in between and on the beach. Runing it on samsung note 5.
You rock! Thank you for helping me KNOW what was up with my WiFi AND the towers around me. Company's try to blame us when it is their poor coverage in fact that sucks! Without this app i had no idea OR proof.. Now i do :)
Stability Please fix stability on this app. This app is not overall stable on galaxy s7 edge. It sometimes give me a huge differences on results and then it gives me accurate results and a few lags. We need also the option to change between opensignal true speedtests and maximum speedtests.
Really useful app I use it almost every day. Genuinely useful for finding good coverage areas and comparing networks. I especially like the ping stats as it is low ping (network latency) that really makes a connection feel snappy (as opposed to raw throughput, as some networks would have you believe).
True Speed test anything but I was curious why results from this and speedtest were so different so I tested downloading twenty large files, turns out Opensignal test is worse than useless
What's New
- Fixes for coverage tab
- Support for iWLAN
- Improvements to data collection (we now see VOLTE!)

Skip to comments.RANKED: The Most Corrupt States
Posted on 09/04/2013 6:47:37 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
This weekend, the New York Times' Nick Madigan called Florida a "hothouse of corruption," reporting the Sunshine State saw the greatest number of people convicted of public corruption between 2000 and 2010.
That's technically true. But it's not the full story.
To get a true sense of the most corrupt state, we need to know how many convictions there have been on a population basis.
So we went back to Justice Department data cited by Madigan, to see which states saw the greatest number of convictions per 100,000 (Madigan actually appears to cite slightly outdated data; the latest covers the period between 2002 and 2011).
No. 1?
Louisiana, with nearly 9 convictions per 100,000 people.
The Dakotas are runners up.
The states with the fewest conviction rates were South Carolina, Oregon, Washington, New Hampshire, Minnesota and Utah, each with no more than 1.3 convictions per 100,000.
And Florida? Only the 20th-most corrupt, with 3.28 convictions per 100,000 — basically, just a bit above average.
Here's the full chart:
(Excerpt) Read more at businessinsider.com ...
Stupid metric. I could make a case that more convictions implies less corruption, because crooks are actually punished.
If the corruption extends to the DAs and the police, the arrest numbers are worthless.
This data assumes that convictions is an accurate basis for measurement. Truly corrupt states will not convict their own.
With a legislature that meets every-other-year and relatively light regulation in the state, I guess that's corruption I can live with.
If you look what happened in the cases of Terry McCauliffe, Charles Rangel and Jon Corzine, just to name a few, you might want to reconsider using a conviction as the key for saying which are the most corrupt. Whether they bribed or used political connections to get off the hook, only Rangel was convicted, if you will, and that involved nothing more than a slap on the wrist. He is still out there trying to be a civil rights "moral compass", for goodness sakes! Like Al Sharpton, the media still go to him to get quotes on the struggle against the "Man", when for all practical matters, Rangel the landlord is the Man.
In fact, you could argue that the more convictions obtained, the greater the anti-corruption forces are in that state.
I guess this depends on who you leave out. If Illegal aliens were convicted and counted the states boarding the south would be highest. Colorado would be much higher if political violations were counted.
Absurd. If pinkie is not at the top, there's no use to this.
Ack. Illinois, not pinkie!
My first thought was Hawaii, but I'll go with Louisiana. Any state with a considerable population on "Indian" land should be next.
RE: Absurd. If pinkie is not at the top, theres no use to this.
Who or what on earth is pinkie?
Bad metric. In a truly corrupt state, there aren't any convictions for corruption. It's part of the normal way of doing business.
Having written Harry Reid's only biography, I guarantee Nevada has it's share of corruption hidden in plain view.
A friend of Thumbkin. All you have to do is ask where he is and he'll tell you.
I would think that the states with the highest conviction rates were the least corrupt..............
Arrests just mean the crooks pay a consequence for their actions and that there are people in government who work to prevent corruption.
A better measure of corruption would be total State government spending divided by total private sector jobs or total private sector payroll.
Unnecessary government spending ends up in the hands of bad people. Follow the money.
I also disagree with the "per-capita" notion. New Hampshire has an enormous legislature and a tiny population. California has an enormous population, and a fairly small legislature. One bad legislator in New Hampshire, by this metric, would make NH look as bad as if half of California's legislature went to prison.
I guess the state is less corrupt if no one knows about the corruption. Which is usually the case.
I had strong ties to North Dakota, 1964-1988. The tolerance for corruption was very low. The courts were not congested. People actually like to get jury duty. I was called twice, excused twice and paid $50 each time.
Here in Pennsylvania, jury duty will barely cover your parking fee and a granola bar for lunch.
Illinois: The only state where your license plate is made by a former governor.
Illinois wins, hands down.
Most of the corruption is institutionalized and legalized so arrests are not a realistic measure of anything. The only thing that may be a realistic quantification would be "percentage of the total cost of operating a business / living in a state resulting from government."
If you have a fixed base percentage for services such as roads, police, fire, parks, etc then anything above that should by definition be corruption.
North Carolina should be in the top three. Our new governor McCrory is making huge strides in shutting down the "good ol' boy" network that's flim-flammed the citizenry for 80-100 years.
Democrat states will not convict their own.
If DC were a state...
I stand by what I said. Corruption is corruption, no matter the party.
Lackawanna County is so corrupt that big Democrat donors were overbuilding juvenile detention facilities and billing the county over $300 per day per kid incarcerated. The judges in on the scheme were sending the kids to lock-up for penny ante charges like skipping school or public smoking. Incidentally, this is the home of our idiot senior U.S. Senator Bob Casey, Jr. (Lackawanna County, not the lock-up).
Silly metric - if you've got corruption down to an art form (and that would be us in Illinois), the only basis for conviction is hubris to the point of no hope of escape (Blagojevich and JJ Junior) or political revenge (Ryan).
In Illinois if the corrupt don't rock the system they ease into a comfortable retirement or move onto higher office - hell, if you play your cards right, you can get the better part of a Kenwood mansion from a known slimeball like Tony Rezko, and just use that as a convenient stepping-stone to even nicer digs on Pennsylvania Avenue.
Illinois #16? B.S.
I would like to see these broke down by party. Mississippi has 4 CDs, 3 held by Rs, one by a D. This would be helpful but still skewed. I've read that 25% or 4 in 100 Americans are psychopaths to some degree, I believe that among elected officials the numbers are much higher because of their skills and lack of a conscience. Those with this defect are more likely to run as a member of the party that is stronger in a particular district and a psychopath would be at ease adopting an agenda that would help him obtain his goals, usually of wealth and power. I do believe a higher % of Ds are psychopath but the Rs have theirs as well.
And why, even if every corrupt official were caught, would working out corruption per capita even a sensible thing to do? An absolute monarchy in which the only government official with any power -- the king -- habitually takes bribes while ruling over a million people is arguably much more corrupt than a tiny city-state republic with 100,000 inhabitants, and 1000 officers of state with actual power 30 of whom can be suborned with bribes, but the per capita corruption rate in the first is .1 per 100,000, while in the latter is 30 per 100,000.
Psychopaths should read SOCIOPATHS
Pinkie is the name of the spell check.
Kalifornia's so low because it's a Catch and Release state due to prison overcrowding.
Prison, where Illinois governors go to retire.
This is idiotic. New York is the most corrupt state. Period. California is next. Illinois is next. Massachusetts in next. Louisiana is next. It's all a matter of common sense.
of course, we don't teach people to think critically, so this graphic will just be accepted as a truism...
"Stupid metric."
Yep. I don't know why people think that stats and other analysis tools can be wielded effectively and correctly by just about anyone...
Just one more instance of the dumbing down of the populace.
I could simply turn this chart upside-down and proclaim that it ranks law enforcement corruption from most to least corrupt.
California. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Yes, a lot of corrupt politicians are never charged.
I used to live in Massachusetts where almost no politician is convicted of anything in a state court. Three Speakers of the House in succession were convicted in federal court however.
The same appears to be true in Illinois except there it has been three governors in a row. None convicted in state courts. All convicted in federal courts.
I would argue that the top five most politically corrupt states includes Massachusetts and Illinois.
Flip this stat and you are about there. Measuring corruption by the number of convictions is like measuring the number of cockroaches in a house using a camera at noon.
A LACK of convictions tells me nobody is willing to take anyone to court.
Washington State is as corrupt as they come. The environmentalists are buying up land after bullying people off of it first. The Forest and Fish law calls for a 250 foot setback from all water's edges. Confiscation on a massive scale. County and State colludes to scam landowners all the time here.
Assessments? Every year things flip - your house goes down in value, but your land value goes up, then the next year the house drops in value, but the land goes up.
The corruption is INSTITUTIONAL. All elections are fixed D+5%, which means if you are an R, you have to win by AT LEAST 6% for the election to go to a recount.
I would no sooner do business in WA state than sell my kids into slavery. I've instructed them all to run, not walk, away from this state once they are 18.
Great place to backpack and kayak. Lousy place to live. Meanest people in the US outside of New Jersey.
By my measurement, this make LA the least corrupt, since they actually prosecute corrupt officials.
Maine is one of those legally corrupt states. Run by plutocrats from out of state with trust funds and family monies, most of the state is owned by leftist trust babies. For Pete's sake the largest paper is owned by a leftist's boyfriend/husband chellie pingree. Her daughter is now working herself up the power ladder to grace our fair state with more totalitarian regulation.
....clearly uninformed... look at California's ranking....
It does seem a strange way to measure, but NH is near the bottom of the list for corruption.
My two cents: Those states near the bottom are probably accurately among the least corrupt, but at the top and in the middle a lot depends on enforcement.
I suspect maybe the political culture in "less corrupt" MN and neighboring "more corrupt" ND and SD isn't that different, but a few bad apples get caught by good enforcement an,d because of their low population, the bad apples make the Dakotas look more corrupt than they really are.

The Red Room
by H.G. Wells
The Man with the Shade
Character Analysis
The man with the shade is the oldest and probably the creepiest of the three creepy old custodians. He comes into the custodians' quarters later (after the beginning of the story), which gives the narrator plenty of time to study him. We get the narrator's observations:
He supported himself by a single crutch, his eyes were covered by a shade, and his lower lip, half averted, hung pale and pink from his decaying yellow teeth. (7)
In the beginning of the story, the man with the withered arm doesn't say much, although he does cough and splutter a lot. At the very end, he's the one who speaks up and finishes the story with his pronouncement about "fear" and "this house of sin" (60). Unlike the other two custodians, he appears to have suspected it was fear that haunted the room, and not a ghost. Unlike the narrator at the beginning, however, he appears to have understood just how serious a force Fear is. Maybe he's the wisest of all.

First, thanks very much for this plugin, very usefull!
Then, I notice that your plugin has a hook on "the_content' but not "get_the_content". I need to use get_the_content because I have to process it. I tried to update it directly from the plugin but doesn't work..
So, the only solution I found (I didn't spend much time) is on my php template page, I add :
$content = get_the_content();
$content = apply_filters('the_content', $content);
echo $content;
It's not very clean but it works :-)
Hope you will find a solution for this. I think I am not alone.

Some things in the world of politics fall into gray areas. Others, however, are clearly black or white. An agreement apparently reached in 2004 that would provide Social Security benefits for illegal aliens is wrong. There's no middle ground. This proposal is wrong and everyone should closely monitor how Congress decides this issue.
Here's what could happen. Under a deal reached almost three years ago between the United States and Mexico, illegal aliens who might someday be granted legal status, would be eligible for Social Security benefits for the time they worked here illegally. Not only would this plan hasten the financial woes of the Social Security system but it's just not right to reward illegal activities. And that's exactly what this plan would do.
I think President Bush approved this proposal for political purposes. There is a growing Hispanic population in this country and their voting power increases daily. By offering this Social Security revision, I believe Bush sees more votes for Republicans as a result. If approved, the Bush legacy will include both the Iraq war and the eventual demise of the Social Security program.
On a personal level, this plan won't impact me. I won't live long enough to feel the pain of paying benefits to illegal aliens. But it will impact my children and their children. The promise of Social Security will fade into history and the efforts of millions of American workers will be handed to millions of illegal aliens who will never and could never put enough into the Social Security program to offset what they would receive.
I am literally sickened by this unbelievable proposal. Who in their right mind would reward illegal activities? The American voters are united in their opposition to such a plan yet Congress may well be on the verge of approving the measure with little public debate.
Politicians know that voters have short memories. If it's not going to impact my pocketbook today, then who cares? Well, we all should care because this plan would only increase the flow of illegal aliens across our borders and further burden a Social Security system already near collapse.
If approved, history will mark this one single issue as a breaking point of a promise given to the American public.
I pledge never to support any elected official - regardless of party affiliation - who votes to take money out of the hands of hard-working Americans and give it to illegal aliens. And I will take that pledge to my grave.
