Motion sickness is not a pleasant condition for your pooch to go through and this guide will help you deal with such things.
The first thing to consider when your dog is refusing to jump into the car is whether your dog is reluctant to get into the car or travel in the car and therefore resisting getting in. Many young dogs experience motion sickness or car sickness. Signs of car sick dogs may include vomiting, drooling, panting, general anxiety, and restlessness. A dog that experiences car sickness even once may be reluctant to travel again.
Tips for car sick dogs
- Make sure your dog's early car trips are short and to happy destinations, such as the park.
- Don't make the first car trip to the vet for their first injection!
- Some dogs prefer to look out a window while others choose to lay low, such as on the floor - experiment around to see if your dog has a preference.
- Get a husky harness to restrain your dog. Harnesses made for Husky dogs tend to be very rugged and hardy restraints.
- Make certain your dog has good ventilation wherever he is seated.
- Don't feed your dog a large meal just before travelling.
- Some medications and homoeopathic remedies can help to alleviate motion sickness and/or relax your dog for the road. Consult your vet for advice.
Desensitise your Dog to Car Travel
Perhaps your dog is fearful of the sound, smell or sensation of car travel. Take your time to slowly desensitise your dog to each of these steps with the help of some yummy treats.
For example:
1. Feed your dog next to the car.
2. Feed your dog next to the car with the engine running.
3. Feed your dog in the car, engine off.
4. Feed your dog in the car engine on.
5. Feed your dog in the car. Take a trip around the block.
6. Feed your dog a small amount while travelling around the block in the car.
7. Slowly extend the time your dog spends in the car.
Physical Reasons for Resisting Car Travel
If your dog appears to travel happily with no signs of motion sickness, perhaps he simply has trouble getting into the car. Contrary to what many people think large dogs are often poorly coordinated jumpers and may well be reluctant to jump into the confined space of a car.
Consider whether your dog could have sore hips or some other physical reason for the reluctance. If all seems well physically, take some time to teach your dog 'in' and 'out' with the car engine off and at a time when you're not in a hurry to go anywhere. Use plenty of food treats and/or praise and keep the sessions frequent but short.
For some large or elderly dogs, a ramp is a good solution. Teach your dog to walk along the ramp laid flat on the ground and then slowly raise the elevation before moving it to the car. Again, reward your dog for moving into the confined space of the car and make sure you drive to a few places your dog will enjoy.
And, if you are going to attach your dog to the seat belt, practice putting the harness on and off well before you get to the car.

The Microsoft Outlook Social Connector� is a feature of Microsoft Outlook that combines 'business and personal' updates of all of your contacts across Outlook, Facebook, LinkedIn & Windows Live in a centralized location. In this post, we'll explore how to use the Outlook Social Connector in CRM 2011.
Why is this important for Microsoft CRM clients?� Well further to your 360 degree view that Microsoft CRM provides, now you have the ability to fully complete the circle by tracking all of your contacts activities across Outlook (emails, appointments, tasks) and now social media sites like Facebook and LinkedIn!
Some cool features:
- Displays your contacts profile picture from the site you connect with
- Lists all of your contacts social updates
- Displays all messages that you and your contact has exchanged through the social media site
- All of this information available when you send/read emails from your contact in Outlook and in CRM.
What do you need to get started? The Outlook Social Connector is available for Microsoft Outlook 2010, 2007 and 2003. You will also have to download the 3rd party add on's to bring in the updates from your favorite social media sites.
Social Network Providers available for Outlook Social Connector
Let's walk through an example of setting up LinkedIn for Office Social Connector.
If you have Outlook 2010, the Outlook Social Connector should come automatically with your activation. If you have Outlook 2010, but no Social Connector, it may have been deselected during the installation of Microsoft Office Outlook. In which case:
- Open the Windows Control Panel, then click Program and Features.
- In the Program and Features dialog box, select Microsoft Office 2010 and then click Change.
- In the Microsoft Office 2010 setup dialog select Add or Remove Features and then click Continue.
- In the Installation Options dialog, click Microsoft Outlook, click Outlook Add-Ins, and then click Outlook Social Connector.
- Select Run from My Computer, and then click Continue.
- Finish the Microsoft Office 2010 configuration process and restart Outlook.
For earlier versions of Microsoft Outlook (2007 & 2003), you can download the Microsoft Outlook Social Connector here.
Next, once you confirm you have the Microsoft Outlook Social Connector tool installed, proceed by downloading the LinkedIn Connector.
On the LinkedIn for Outlook site, click download and follow the quick wizard that downloads and installs the LinkedIn to Outlook connector.
Restart Microsoft Outlook.
In the Microsoft Outlook Ribbon
- Click View
- In the People Pane Section, Select People Pane
- Select Account Settings
- Select the LinkedIn checkbox and sign in to LinkedIn with your normal username and password.
- Click Connect then Finish
Now go back to your inbox and highlight an existing email from one of your contacts, who is also a Connection on LinkedIn.
Example: Jim Sheehan is a connection of mine on LinkedIn and Jim is also a contact in Microsoft CRM, with Microsoft Outlook Social Communicator; I am now able to view all related activities in one central location:
- Jim's LinkedIn profile picture – put a face to a name/email address
- Jim's company and title
- LinkedIn Connector icon
- Links to Home Page, Jim's RSS Feeds, Emails received from Jim, Attachments received from Jim, and all meeting invites from Jim
- All of Jims LinkedIn updates, LinkedIn messages, RSS feeds, standard emails, standard outlook appointments sorted by date.
Oh wait, there's more. Not only does this store all the important information that I need to know before my next interaction with Jim from Outlook, I can also see this same information for Jim's contact record in Microsoft CRM 2011.
Cool stuff.
Happy CRM'ing!

During periods of warmth and fauna abundance, wild rabbits eat grass, weeds, wildflowers, clover and crops grown on farms or in gardens. In the cold winter months, their diet shrinks to twigs and bark, conifer needles, buds and any green plant they can find.Continue Reading
Some wild rabbits, such as Nuttall's cottontails, can climb slanted tree trunks to reach additional vegetation. Rabbits practice coprophagy, which means they eat their undigested pellets to absorb the foods' nutrients better. Mother rabbits nurse their newborns for about two weeks before the offspring move on to eating solid vegetation. When the young reach their fourth or fifth weeks, their mother takes them with her to find food.Learn more about Rabbits & Hares

So I've noticed at least three people telling me that my more recognized pasta, The Face, would make a good movie. I'm not sure if I agree, but then again...
Alright, here's my thought. What if I were to organize and film a The Face movie or Youtube series? I've thought of several ideas for a script, and I see this being a feasable situation with a little support. If there is anyone who would like to see this happen, do let me know. If I can get enough positive feedback, I'll put together a kickstarter page and see what happens.
Do me a good one and let me know what you think, K? WJH out!

Tom Gieryn: July 6 Recap
MVP: Yunel Escobar. Two singles, a walk, and an RBI in four trips was enough to earn MVP for this game.
LVP: Jair Jurrjens. Four earned runs allowed in six innings isn't exactly impressive, and while I hate to dock a pitcher for his hitting, he grounded into a fielder's choice with two outs and the bases loaded with the Braves down 4-1 in the fourth, which was a big play for the Cubbies.
MIP: Derrek Lee's two-run homer with one out in the first inning. As usual, in a game where one team is in control the entire game, the first runs are most important.
UotG: Since this is the first recap of a loss, remember that the "unit of the game" is the one that contributes most to the result (i.e., if we win, this is the most valuable; if we lose, it's the least valuable). So the losers today are the offense, who mustered just two runs in an ultimately winnable game.
Gwinnett: Reid Gorecki and Barbaro Canizares continued their hot hitting with a single and a double apiece, and Greg Norton added two hits in his apparently never-ending rehab assignment. Todd Redmond got shelled, yielding five runs on seven hits (including a homer) and four walks in 2 1/3 innings.
Mississippi: Outfielder Concepcion Rodriguez, who recently gained some notoriety as one of the guys who would have been part of the package traded to Pittsburgh at last year's trade deadline, went 3-for-4; he has now hit in nine of his last ten games after a very slow start to the season. Jason Heyward continues unfazed by the Southern League with two hits including a triple, and three RBIs in five ABs. He's hitting .417 post-promotion. Jeff Lyman, who was just promoted to the rotation after a strong start to the year in the bullpen, allowed two runs in five innings on two walks, two hits and five K's. All three relievers who appeared in the game (recently-demoted Deunte Heath, Bryan Dumesnil, and Cory Gearrin) allowed runs.
Rome: I feel like a broken record saying that Rome's offense produced nothing noteworthy in this game, mustering just three hits (though one was a homer by last year's fifth-round pick Braeden Schlehuber). Dimaster Delgado pitched six strong innings, allowing two runs, walking none and striking out eight, and Tyrelle Harris made his Rome debut with two scoreless innings to close out the contest.
Danville: Center fielder L.V. Ware went 3-for-5 to raise his season average to .393; he's a little old for the Appy League at 22, but at least he's raking. Riaan Spanjer-Furstenberg had just one hit in this game (awww...) and struck out three times, but he's still hitting .462. Promising seventh-round pick Robby Hefflinger out of Georgia Perimeter had two hits including a homer, and toolsy fourth-round shortstop Mycal Jones added three more hits. Lefty Tyler Stovall once again struggled with his control, striking out six but walking five in four innings of work.
GCL: Not too much to report on offense aside from right fielder Anthony Feliz's 4-for-4 afternoon with two doubles. Aaron Northcraft allowed two earned runs in three innings, but did strike out four against only one walk. He was a good sign by the
Braves. Knuckleballing novelty Lance Niekro got in the game, allowing a homer but nothing else in his inning of work.

Having An Icing Identity Crisis! I Need Frosting Therapy :-(
Decorating By CakeDiva73 Updated 14 Nov 2008 , 4:08pm by caryl
Ok, here's the deal.....I made my own frosting for years. A basic combo of crisco & butter & I added whipping cream and it tasted great but handled terribly. It never smoothed nicely or crusted so I went in search of the holy grail of cake icing.
I have tried every icing you can think of... Sugarshack, IndyDeb, Italian BC, Swiss BC, Whipped...... I am going to SCREAM!!!!
If I hear one more flippin' person tell me my icing is 'too sweet' I am going to cry out loud. It's icing, therefore; by definition, a mixture of butter/fat & sugar... how is this NOT supposed to be sweet??
Does it sound like I'm yelling? If so, I am sorry - I am not yelling at any of you but rather at the people who insist on telling my my icing is too sweet and why can't I use whipped cream???
Oh, by the way, they want it to look like fondant with a porcelein smoothness & have 3D roses, possibly airbrushed and definitely handpainted........... whipping cream. ARE U KIDDING ME??????
I am losing my mind.
Please, someone come and tell me what to do. Do I choose one and call it a day and tell them they can't have decorated whipping cream? Do I offer icing tastings like they do with filling? Do I continue my search for the perfect, smooth & crusting icing that isn't 'too sweet'? Do I slice my wrists with my offset spatula?
I am at a loss - any advice is appreciated.
Oh I hear you. I mean, I don't have very long decorating cakes, but my family thinks my frosting is too sweet. And I have the feeling I am heading your way. I don't think you should do a taste testing on your frosting, that would be way to much work for you. I hope you find one that you like and go with that one.....I know you can't please everybody's taste, soooooo use the one you like the most and make it your preferred choice.
I had the same problem. One person likes the other person hates etc. etc... Well I have chosen my recipes and stuck to them. If you like you come back if not well bad luck. Don't be hard on yourself I was and I am so over it. For example my dad always says my icing is sweet, so now he takes it off. Simple problem solved! Icing is meant to be sweet.
I always just smile and say, "well it is about 90% sugar, so I guess it might taste a little sweet." Sometimes you can use salted butter or add salt and it will actually cut down the sweetness some.
hi cake diva, i am not an expert, but maybe cutting back on the flavorings and seeing if it makes a difference. i say that cuz one time i got my flavorings mixed up and i accidently put less than i usually do and my parents loved it and my mother is very picky and can't stand icing cuz to her its always too sweet and she even liked it and said it wasn't sweet like my other icings. so i don't know, but all i did different was that. have a great nite or day!!
I can totally relate! I have heard that so many times. No one liked MMF or other fondant, BC always get "it's so sweet", IMBC/SMBC too buttery... It is maddening! So last time I did Pastry Pride which BTW is what bakeries use for "whipped cream" on cakes in Brooklyn. Don't you know one person told me it was rich and sweet!!!! I get so upset when I see someone disect my cake. Cut off the icing immediately and pick around here and there and most goes in the trash. I think maybe it is egotistical to be upset at how much goes in the trash. But I try so hard to find something that most will like. Is that egotistical? I know my cakes are good...seriously. I know when they are dry or whatever. I know each icing or topping has it's own thing and none are perfect for all. This has been very upsetting to me....
If you like your frosting stick with it, if you don't find one you like and stick with it. I also agree with Angelatx, cut down on the flavoring you use, I know some recipes use a lot way too much for me.
Good luck!!
I add a tablespoon of cognac to mu buttercream icing to help cut the sweetness. Before investing in a large bottle (cause it is expensive) i bought a little sample bottle to give it a whirl.
But i do agree with everyone else, make what you are comfortable using and working with then stick with it.
Ditto on the salt suggestion, and I also use 1/3 to 1/2 cup of flour or cornstarch per batch to cut the sweetness.
I have also heard of people combining meringue buttercreams (IMBC or SMBC) and regular buttercream for a less sweet option.
Salted butter really help cut the sweetness. That's all is use, and it seems to work!
Agree with all the above! I use high ratio shortening to help counter some of the greasiness, salt and lots of flavoring (almond is my fave) to cut the sweetness. Swiss Meringue Buttercream seems to be the most popular around here. It satisfies those who want a sweet icing, yet is not too sweet for those who prefer the more buttery taste, and I love working with it! It smoothes beautifully, is easy to make- once you get the hang of it, and can be stiffened with a little xxx sugar for certain decorations (roses, etc). It is a long, frustrating journey to finding that perfect icing, but worth it once you get there! Good luck!

Hey everyone. Had the opportunity to connect and use Clear's WIMAX here in Atlanta over the weekend and I must say, I had some really nice results from the 2 days of testing/using the system.
Anyone else using WIMAX from Clear in Atlanta?
Its certainly signal strength dependant but with a decent signal strength, I was gettin 5-6 Meg down on a consistant basis. The mobile card is equally as impressive.
Curious to know anyone else's experience on WIMAX from Clear.com

I tested it over a weekend a few weeks ago, but over in the Duluth/Lawrenceville edge I was jus outside of the reach of two towers according to their google map application and at home I barely got 1 bar on the modem.
If they add a tower i would be interested but for now I have to stick with my 6mb DSL.

AVS Computer Services is an IT service provider.
I am a Clear Autorized Dealer and have been using and selling the product in the Atlanta area since May 2009.
I have found that it works really well when you are within range of a tower that has the WiMax turned on. The good thing is that new towers are activated every week and your signal will improve as more towards activate in your area.
I am not only a dealer, but I love using the service, because now I have high speed access wherever I go in Atlanta without having to rely on the slow cellular networks or hard to find WiFi hot spots without the encrption turned on.
Jan 11, 2010 at 3:14 UTC
I have clear and I'm able to max out the connection to 6Mb/s using multiple threads however about about an hour or so, it seems Clear limits the rate down to about 1.5Mb/s... While there is no usage cap, the limitation of bandwidth is not something i'm happy about.

i am considering getting a CLEAR dealership..does anyone has one and it is a good idea?what are the pluses and minuses..?can some just share some experience. I live in the downtown Atlanta area, right inside the perimeter. thanks

Same here on the cap. Didn't notice it as much until March of this year. Was getting 6-8 down regularly. Quite happy. Now - 4 is more the norm with bouts of 1-2 for unknown reasons. Have never had a good result with their chat support. Always been told to call them.

Do you need a new roof?
Here are 5 common indicators.When you notice a ceiling stain or your home has been hit by a storm, you'll want to do an initial roof inspection to look for signs of roof damage. Even if you have kept up with yearly roof maintenance, it's always a good idea to get a professional opinion so you can make the right decision on whether or not your roof needs to be replaced. After all it is your roof that is protecting the rest of your home against the weather. We've put together a list of the most common types of issues that suggest it might be time to have your roof replaced. Identifying problems before they become extreme can help you to avoid a serious burden to your bank account.
1. Leaks:If you see wet, dark areas in your attic after a heavy storm then you should definitely call a professional roofing contractor to come out to inspect the source of the leak. The shingle underlayment or the flashing has deteriorated. Some leaks are easier to spot than others. It's important to pin-point the origination of a leak to ensure if it's roof related or some other problem such as plumbing. If it is a roof issue, early detection can be the difference between a simple roof repair and whether a complete roof replacement will be required.
2. Missing, broken, or curled shingles:It's is the most obvious sign that you'll need to replace your roof altogether. If the granule loss on your shingles is excessive it's only a matter of time before they will start curling due to the complete deterioration of the UV coating. The life of shingles depends largely on the quality grade originally installed and the age of the roof. If they are dry and disintegrating then an investment in a new roof is inevitable.
3. Roof dips:If you step back far enough from your house to get a full view of your roof and see areas that are lower than others; this is known as dipping. Your roof should be an even flat surface. Dipping is evidential of either rotting or swelling from moisture in the roof deck – both signs mean that the roofing materials are degraded and need to be replaced.
4. Exterior or interior paint peeling/ blisteringis an indication that there is moisture trapped in the house most likely due to excessive humidity and high temperatures from inefficient attic ventilation. Attic air flow from the ridge to the eaves must flow without obstruction to keep attic humidity low. The bathroom and kitchen should be vented properly and dryers must be vented to outside of the attic.
5. High energy cost:
If your energy cost for cooling your home has gone up significantly it could be from poor attic ventilation which causes your air conditioner to run continuously and work harder to keep your home comfortable. Rafters in attics with trapped moisture are prone to collect condensation and eventually drip into the insulation potentially causing mold to grow.
The age of your roof can be a factor to consider if a roof replacement is needed. Usually, roofs have a lifespan of 20-30 years before they need replacing. A yearly roof inspection and seasonal maintenance plan can help prolong the life of your roof. If you have any questions don't hesitate to call us (414) 291-7663 to discuss your concerns and options. Our estimates are always FREE!

Any North Texas Bakers Interested In Airbrush Class???

You have to have all the equipment and they require some additional supplies, but they only offer it twice a year, so if we miss it this time we will have to wait till the fall.....unless we take one from Sweetcakes!

As in other parts of Western Europe, the twentieth century in Italy is characterized by industrialization, urbanization, and modernization. Up until World War I, Italy is still engaged in defining itself politically, following nineteenth-century unification, but is able to prosper after the war, having avoided many of the disruptions caused by fighting in other parts of Europe. The rise of Fascism and the conflict of World War II dominate all aspects of Italian life during the middle decades of the century. In the postwar period, the modernization of Italy continues and political life witnesses the rise of a wide variety of political parties representing an array of views.
The process of modernization and the rise of Fascism each has an impact on the visual arts of the Italian peninsula. The Futurist movement, which has literary as well as visual arts adherents, places some of the essential characteristics of modernity—speed and violence among them—at the center of its aesthetic. The relationship of artistic production to the Fascist movement is also a central problem for twentieth-century culture in Italy. Despite its politically progressive connotations in many other places, in Italy modernism is adapted by some artists and architects as the formal language with which to represent Fascism.
At mid-century, Italy emerges as one of the world centers of modern design. In the fields of furniture and industrial design, fashion, and others, Italy is known for its stylish products which are marketed worldwide in the postwar period. The country's preeminence in design through the end of the century is secured in the 1980s by postmodern innovators. In other fields of the visual arts, for instance painting and architecture, Italians also contribute to the development of postmodernism. Much of this new work is exhibited at the Venice Biennale, which through the century serves as one of the most significant international venues for showing modern and contemporary art.
Arturo Toscanini (1867–1957) serves as director of La Scala in Milan, where he is known for supporting modern music. The conductor returns to the position in 1906–8 and 1920–29.
King Umberto I (1844–1900) is assassinated. This event leads to increased influence for Prime Minister Giovanni Giolitti (1842–1928), who starts a war with the Ottoman empire in 1911 as a result of which Italy gains Libya as a colony.
The opera Tosca by composer Giacomo Puccini (1858–1924) is produced for the first time, in Rome. It is based on a play by French writer Victorien Sardou (1831–1908) which Puccini had seen earlier in Paris. Puccini's opera Madama Butterfly (also known as Madame Butterfly) debuts four years later in Milan.
Tenor Enrico Caruso (1873–1921) makes his debut at La Scala in Milan in Puccini's operaLa Bohème. Within three years, Caruso leaves for New York, where he becomes a sensation at the Metropolitan Opera.
The fourth Venice Biennale includes works by French artists for the first time, most notably twenty sculptures by Auguste Rodin (1840–1917).
The Casa di Riposo, a retirement home for musicians founded by composer Giuseppe Verdi (1813–1901), opens in Milan. The building, in the Neo-Gothic style, is designed by architect Camillo Boito (1836–1914) between 1895 and 1899.
The Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte Decorativa Moderna is held in Turin and features many works in the Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts styles. Architect Raimondo D'Aronco (1857–1932) designs the main exhibition building, or Rotunda, in a Secessionist style, as well as the pavilion devoted to art photography.
The Galleria Internazionale d'Arte Moderna opens in Venice, in the Ca' Pesaro, a sixteenth-century palace on the Grand Canal. It is intended as an exhibition space for younger artists.
Decorative arts are included in the Biennale for the first time and, beginning in 1907, foreign pavilions are constructed.
The Italian commercial film industry is born. Among the early projects is Filoteo Alberini's (1867–1937) La presa di Roma, 20 settembre 1870 (The Capture of Rome, September 20, 1870), made in 1905, the year in which the first Italian motion picture studio is established.
Mariano Fortuny y Madrazo (1871–1949), a Spanish-born Venetian fabric and dress designer, produces an Art Nouveau dress called the "Delphos" gown. The celebrated American-born modern dancer Isadora Duncan (1878–1927) and the famous French actress Sarah Bernhardt (1844–1923) both wear versions of the Greek-inspired, pleated and beaded dress, thus making it famous internationally.
Italian automobile designer Ettore Bugatti (1881–1947) sets up a factory in France where he produces both racing and touring cars through the 1930s. His father, Carlo Bugatti (1855–1940), is a well-known furniture designer whose organic designs are inspired by the drawings of French architect Eugène-Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc (1814–1879). Rembrandt Bugatti (1884–1916), another of Carlo's sons, is a well-known sculptor specializing in animals.
Writer Filippo Tommaso Marinetti (1876–1944) publishes "The Foundation and Manifesto of Futurism" in the French newspaper Le Figaro. This founding text of the movement calls for the embrace of violence and mechanization. In 1910, "The Technical Manifesto of Futurist Painting" is signed by Umberto Boccioni (1882–1916), Carlo Carrà (1881–1966), Luigi Russolo (1885–1947), Giacomo Balla (1871–1958), and Gino Severini (1883–1966).
Architect Antonio Sant'Elia (1888–1916) exhibits drawings—perspective views of futuristic buildings—with the group Nuove Tendenze. In the exhibition catalogue, Sant'Elia publishes a version of his "Manifesto of Futurist Architecture."
Under pressure from King Vittorio Emanuele III (1869–1947, a.k.a. "The Soldier"), Italy declares war on Austria-Hungary as part of World War I. Austria surrenders to the Allies in 1918.
The Pittura Metafisica ("Metaphysical Painting") movement is begun by painters Giorgio de Chirico (1888–1978) and Carlo Carrà (1881–1966). It also includes Giorgio Morandi (1890–1964) and Mario Sironi (1885–1961). These painters' interest in depicting the activity of the unconscious mind, as well as their use of disturbing imagery, inspire the later Surrealists.
Poet and dramatist Gabriele D'Annunzio (1863–1938) leads a group of Italian nationalists who seize the city of Fiume, now Rijeka, Croatia. The group ousts the city's Allied occupiers and holds it as an independent state for fifteen months.
Mario Buccellati (1891–1965) opens his first shop in Milan. Among the jeweler's supporters is Gabriele D'Annunzio (1863–1938). Buccellati becomes well known for his silver flatware, hollowware, and other designs and opens a shop in Rome in 1925.
The "Two Red Years" ("Il Biennio Rosso") constitute a period of working-class agitation. Fear of revolution contributes to the popularity of the Fascist movement, led by Benito Mussolini (1883–1945, a.k.a. Il Duce). Fascist party forces, the "Black Shirts," are used to repress working-class political activity. The power of the Fascist party increases through the 1920s.
The Ca' Brutta apartment building is constructed in Milan, designed by architect Giovanni Muzio (1893–1982). The building includes modernist and classical elements.
Duilio Cambellotti (1876–1960) designs a World War I monument for the town of Terracina. In addition to large-scale sculpture, Cambellotti also produces smaller sculptures as well as illustrations and tapestry designs.
Giacomo Cappellin (1887–1968) and Paolo Venini (1895–1959) found the glassworks Vetri Soffiati Muranesi Cappellin, Venini & C. in Murano, the group of islands in the Venice lagoon where the industry had begun as early as the eighth century. The new firm reinvigorates the Murano glass industry by integrating modern design into the traditional process.
The Alessi company is founded near Milan and produces small appliances and tablewares, mostly of metal. Under the leadership of Alberto Alessi (born 1946), the company acquires a reputation for high-quality design by hiring such well-known figures as Ettore Sottsass (born 1917) and Aldo Rossi (1931–1997) to create functional and beautiful utensils for home use.
A posthumous retrospective of the work of Amedeo Modigliani (1884–1920) is presented by the general secretary of the Venice Biennale, Vittorio Pica (1864–1930). The exhibition emphasizes what is at the time a controversial connection between Modigliani's modernist painting and traditional African sculpture. In 1930, a second retrospective is held in connection with the Biennale.
The Novecento Italiano is founded in Milan, led by painters Anselmo Bucci (1887–1955), Mario Sironi (1885–1961), and others. The objective of the group is to establish a specifically Italian modernism, but some members produce works in sympathy with the Fascist regime of Mussolini (1883–1945).
Gruppo 7 is formed by architects who embrace both rationalist principles and certain aspects of modernist aesthetics. The group's intellectual position is formulated by critic Edoardo Persico (1900–1936) and architect Giuseppe Pagano (1896–1945), both of whom are associated with the journal Casabella. Pagano goes on to design the rationalist Physics Building at the University of Rome (1932–35).
Salvatore Ferragamo (1898–1960) establishes a shop in Florence selling shoes of his own design. In the following decades, he will become one of the world's most inventive and successful shoe designers, catering to celebrities and other wealthy clients.
The independent state of the Vatican City is established by the Lateran Pacts, signed by Mussolini (1883–1945).
The Olivetti Company introduces the first portable typewriter, the MPI. In 1936, Olivetti employs the Italian industrial designer Marcello Nizzoli (1887–1969) to style all of its typewriters and he remains head of design at the company until the 1960s.
The Casa del Fascio is constructed in Como, to the design of Giuseppe Terragni (1904–1943), a member of Gruppo 7. The building's facade is composed of a partially open grid of thin unornamented elements and demonstrates the applicability of some aspects of modernism to representing a Fascist politics. The building is later renamed the Casa del Popolo.
The Italo-Ethiopian War is fought and leads to the unification of Eritrea, Abyssinia, and Somaliland as a single state under Italian domination, called Africa Orientale Italiana (Italian East Africa).
Milanese architect Gio Ponti (1891–1979) designs the headquarters of the Montecatini Corporation, Italy's largest chemical company and producer of aluminum, in Milan. Ponti's designs include the building itself plus all the fixtures, fittings, and furnishings, using aluminum as the chief material throughout. As founder and editor of Domus magazine, Ponti will exercise a profound influence over Italian design for nearly half a century.
Turin-based architect, inventor, occultist, photographer, and furniture designer Carlo Mollino (1905–1973) produces the "Milo Mirror," the shape of which echoes the Venus de Milo. Mollino is a prominent practitioner of biomorphic design, inspired by Art Nouveau and by Surrealism, which is centered in Turin in the 1940s and '50s.
Guccio Gucci (1881–1953) opens his first shop in Rome, selling high-style accessories in leather and other materials.
The Villa Malaparte, designed by rationalist architect Adalberto Libera (1903–1963), is built on the island of Capri. The client, writer Curzio Malaparte (1898–1957), has strong ties to the Fascist regime. The famous house is positioned atop a dramatic rock outcropping at the edge of the sea.
Italy endorses the German annexation of Austria and parts of Czechoslovakia, and receives Germany's support for its annexation of Albania. Italy further allies itself with Germany during World War II when it declares war on France and Britain in 1940. When the Americans and British defeat Italian and German forces in North Africa in 1943, King Vittorio Emanuele III (1869–1947) has Mussolini arrested and replaces him with Marshal Pietro Badoglio (1871–1956) as prime minister. Italy subsequently declares an armistice with the Allies, and Germany occupies parts of the country, which are liberated in 1945.
Enzo Ferrari (1898–1988) leaves the employ of Alfa Romeo to begin the company Auto-Avio Costruzioni Ferrari in Modena. After World War II, the company produces its first automobile, the 125 Sport, and becomes known for its winning race cars.
The E42 Exposition (or EUR, Esposizione Universale di Roma) provides an opportunity for rationalist architects to demonstrate their new interest in using the vocabulary of a stripped-down classicism.
The film Roma, Città Aperta (Rome, Open City), directed by Roberto Rossellini (1906–1977), is released. It is part of the director's Neorealist trilogy that also includes Paisà (1946) andGermania Anno Zero (Germany Year Zero, 1947). The three films deal with World War II and its aftermath.
Architect and critic Bruno Zevi (1918–2000) publishes Towards an Organic Architecture, an influential text in which he advocates a more naturalistic modern architecture, inspired by the work of Frank Lloyd Wright (1869–1959) and others. Zevi is the central figure in the Associazione per l'Architettura Organica (Association for Organic Architecture).
A referendum on the Italian government deposes the monarchy and leads to the establishment of a republic. The new Italian constitution takes effect in 1948.
Mobster Charles "Lucky" Luciano (1897–1962) is pardoned by the U.S. in return for having brokered Mafia assistance for the Americans in the invasion of Sicily during World War II. Luciano then returns to Sicily.
Director Vittorio De Sica's (1901–1974) bleak masterpiece Ladri di biciclette (The Bicycle Thief) premieres. De Sica and screenwriter Cesare Zavattini (1902–1989) produce several other classics of Neorealist cinema, including Miracolo a Milano (Miracle in Milan, 1951) and Umberto D(1952).
Italy is a founding member of NATO. The nation pursues European cooperation by joining the European Economic Community (the EEC, later the European Community, EC, and subsequently the European Union, EU) as a signatory to the Treaty of Rome in 1957.
The INA-Casa housing project is constructed in Rome on the Via Tiburtino, designed by architects Mario Ridolfi (1904–1984) and Ludovico Quaroni (1911–1987). It is an important monument of the Neorealist movement in Italian architecture.
The Peggy Guggenheim Collection opens to the public in her Venice home, the Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, on the Grand Canal. It showcases Guggenheim's (1898–1979) collection of twentieth-century art, amassed as a result of her personal associations with many prominent avant-garde artists.
Ernesto Nathan Rogers (1909–1969) edits the architecture journal Casabella. Rogers is a leader of the postwar movement Ricostruzione (Reconstruction) by architects and engineers who attempt the redesign of everything dal cucchiaio all città ("from the spoon to the city").
Senso, a film based on an 1883 story by writer and architect Camillo Boito (1836–1914), and directed by Luchino Visconti (1906–1976), premieres. The film depicts the failure of the Risorgimento in the face of the Austrian occupation of Italy. Nearly a decade later, in 1963, Visconti makes Il Gattopardo (The Leopard), which likewise deals with the Risorgimento, in this case focusing on the decline of the aristocracy in Sicily.
Architect Carlo Scarpa (1906–1978) begins the renovation of the Museo Civico di Castelvecchio in Verona. His approach is distinctive for the way that it preserves traces of the many centuries of the building's history, produces dramatic spatial effects, and includes modern materials like concrete to represent the relationship between past and present.
The Palazzetto dello Sport is built for the 1960 Olympic games in Rome. Designed by Pier Luigi Nervi (1891–1979), the stadium demonstrates the structural possibilities of concrete, the material for which the architect is renowned for using in innovative ways.
Director Michelangelo Antonioni (born 1912) makes L'Avventura (The Adventure) the first film in a trilogy that also includes La Notte (The Night, 1961) and L'Eclisse (The Eclipse, 1962). One of the central themes of the trilogy, and of Antonioni's work in general, is the alienation of modern inhabitants of industrialized Western societies.
The film La Dolce Vita, a wry look at decadence among the privileged class, is directed by Federico Fellini (1920–1993) and stars Marcello Mastroianni (1924–1996). Fellini and Mastroianni team up again for the exuberant 8 1/2, made in 1963.

The Salone Internazionale del Mobile (International Furniture Fair) opens in Milan and continues on an annual basis. By 1965, the prominent manufacturers who show their wares at the fair include Boffi, Cassina, and Kartell.
Writer Umberto Eco (born 1932) uses the term arte programmata ("programmed art") to refer to works exhibited at the Olivetti Company showroom in Milan by artists including Bruno Munari (1907–1998), Enzo Mari (born 1932), and other members of two groups founded several years earlier: Gruppo N and Gruppo T. The works are inspired by kinetic art and are often produced in multiples.
Sculptor, lithographer, etcher, and painter Giacomo Manzù (1908–1991) completes portals (Porta della Morte) with relief sculpture for Saint Peter's Basilica at the Vatican in Rome. The sculptural program includes ten episodes explaining the Christian concept of death.

Fashion designer Emilio Pucci (1914–1992) is hired to produce flight attendant uniforms for Braniff International Airways. Earlier, in the late 1940s, Pucci had been "discovered" at Zermatt, Switzerland, by fashion editor Diana Vreeland (1906–1989) when she noticed the ski outfits he designed and wore there. Pucci is synonymous with chic Italian style in the 1960s, and especially renowned for his brightly colored silk scarves and ties.
The groups of designers known as Archizoom and Superstudio are founded in Florence. The members of the two groups express their critical views of modernist architecture and design in the Superarchitecture exhibition in Pistoia in 1966 and in a second exhibition in Modena in 1967.
The term arte povera ("poor art") is coined by critic Germano Celant (born 1940) to describe the work of thirteen Italian artists who together exhibit their sculptures and installations in the late 1960s. Among the group are Emilio Prini (born 1943) and Gilberto Zorio (born 1944). Their work is experimental, incorporating a variety of materials and media, and embodying a critique of postwar consumer culture.
Architect Aldo Rossi (1931–1997) receives the commission for the San Cataldo cemetery in Modena. It becomes a major statement of postmodernism in architecture, and gives visual form to some of the arguments made in Rossi's influential publication The Architecture of the City(1966).
The Museum of Modern Art in New York presents the exhibition Italy: The New Domestic Landscape—Achievements and Problems of Italian Design. Architect Gae Aulenti (born 1927) participates in the exhibition design. In 1987, she will transform the Gare d'Orsay in Paris into the Musée d'Orsay.
Giorgio Armani (born 1934), designer of a successful line of men's clothing in 1974, establishes a popular line for women characterized by tailoring and fabrics based on men's suits and other garments.

Semiotician and novelist Umberto Eco (born 1932) publishes A Theory of Semiotics, an influential work that is his own translation and reworking of his 1968 book La struttura assente. In 1980, Eco publishes his internationally popular novel Il nome della rosa (The Name of the Rose), which is set in a fourteenth-century monastery. The setting allows Eco to demonstrate his knowledge of medieval aesthetics.
The Treaty of Osimo is signed by Italy and Yugoslavia and resolves the border between the two countries. The treaty also requires Italy to divest itself of African and other landholdings.

Novelist and short-story writer Italo Calvino (1923–1985) publishes Se una notte d'inverno un viaggiatore (If on a Winter's Night a Traveler), which consists of a series of novels that begin but never end. The work reflects literary postmodernism but also Calvino's interest in techniques of storytelling that run through his writings.
The Studio Alchimia is founded in Milan by Alessandro Mendini (born 1931) to transform consumer goods with bright colors, bold patterns, and vivid textures. It is part of the "Radical" or "Anti-Design" movement that opposes the austerity of modernist design.
Critic Achille Bonito Oliva (born 1939) coins the term transavanguardia ("transavantgarde") to refer to the contemporary figurative painting of Sandro Chia (born 1946), Francesco Clemente (born 1952), Enzo Cucchi (born 1949), Mimmo Paladino (born 1948), and others. The Transavantgarde is associated with the Neo-Expressionist movement that arises throughout Europe and North America in the 1980s.
The first exhibition of the Memphis design group is held at the Milan International Furniture Fair. Led by Ettore Sottsass (born 1917), the group opposes the austerity of modernist "good design" with postmodern furnishings that incorporate the materials and florid colors associated with kitsch.

The Fondazione Trussardi, a Milanese contemporary art center, follows in 1996 and is supported by designer Nicola Trussardi (1943–1999). These and other institutions contribute to the growing importance of Milan as a center for contemporary art in Italy.
Media mogul Silvio Berlusconi (born 1936) founds the Forza Italia political party and is elected prime minister. He serves only briefly before the coalition of political parties that support him begins to unravel.
The Minimalia exhibition is held in Venice and travels to New York, to the P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center, in 1999. Curated by Achille Bonito Oliva (born 1939), the show demonstrates the central place of Italian artists in twentieth-century Minimalist art.
Fashion designer Gianni Versace (1946–1997) is murdered in Florida. Versace is known for his stage costumes designed for the British performer Elton John (born 1947) and other celebrities, as well as for his flamboyant collections featuring metallic fabrics and outrageous details.
The French prefect, or governmental representative, Claude Erignac (1937–1998) is assassinated in Corsica. The murder is part of the ongoing struggle for Corsican political autonomy. In 2000, France agrees to give Corsica greater autonomy if violence is curtailed.

Hello everybody!
I am hard at work preparing for our upcoming trip to Tokyo April 25-May 1 and it's a trip we are very excited about. Our very first trip to Tokyo and Japan. A lifelong dream come true.
We will be staying at the Sunroute Plaza in Shinjuku. Our goals are really to wander around Tokyo, exploring various neighborhoods without much set plans in mind.
However we would like to schedule at least 2-3 special meals that we won't forget!
Obviously, the most popular places such as Aronia de Takazawa is out of the question as we are too late in trying to make reservations. We are also hesitant about paying out of our nose for meals as we are not really Japanese food conoscenti-- in that we probably won't be able to tell the difference between 5-star and 4-star sushi.
We do love sushi, rolls, tempura, teppanyaki, and every other kind of Japanese we've ever tried and would be eager to try new things while in Tokyo, keeping things authentic however!
So, what I'd like to ask for is the following experiences:
One izakaya, one kaiseki, and one sukiyaki place in Shibuya or Shinjuku or nearby areas-- not asking for the best of the best in a pretentious way along with prices to match, but rather a comprehensive experience that hits the right notes in price-quality, atmosphere, creativity, etc.
As for sushi/rolls we'll be happy to try some out at Tsukiji and along our wanderings-- but if you have places we really should try out feel free to name some!
I've already read thru posts from the past 2 months on this board but find it all very confusing! Lots to process, and so little time!
Thanks in advance

|RE: [CForms] Change proposal in Custom bindings
|Tue, 07 Sep 2004 07:15:56 GMT
Your solution works, tetting path to "." and passing another path in a config element works. But I don't think it's a logical solution, since all binding elements look like <fb:... id="x" path="y"/>, except for this one, where the path is passed in a config node. There is still a (small) problem however, I need a service manager. If I want to straigt for my own binding builder, I have another very very small change I need. The class JXPathBindingBuilderBase.CommonAttributes and the method getCommonAttributes() needs public (or protected) scope. That way I can create the builder in my own packages. Bart. -----Original Message----- From: Marc Portier [mailto:email@example.com] Sent: Monday, September 06, 2004 5:21 PM To: firstname.lastname@example.com Subject: Re: [CForms] Change proposal in Custom bindings I had a quick scan through your problem and patches (and sorry for not doing that earlier) AFAICS you would get the same effect by just ommitting the xpath from the binding and adding it as a nested config ie not <fb:custom id="x" path="something" builderclass="mypack.CustomValueWrapBinding" factorymethod="createBinding" /> but rather <fb:custom id="config" builderclass="mypack.CustomValueWrapBinding" factorymethod="createBinding" > <fb:config propspath="some" /> </fb:custom> that way the path="." will be assumed on the wrapper and the parent-context will be passed down so your custom binding can narrow down with the local config 'propspath' (potentially checking for null's first) see http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/forms/binding.html#fb%3Acustom if you need more control then this, I suggest skipping the custom-binding alltogether and go straight for the own builder and binding + declaring the builder in the xconf file.

From grammar school boy to Cockney Rebel
Nick Churchill looks at the extraordinary career of the Poole-born rock guitarist, Jim Cregan
Published in December '13
If it hadn't been for a battered old ukulele with a single string, the annals of popular music might never have recorded the name Jim Cregan – and a Dorset native might have been spared the need to return in later life. Instead, rock royalty Rod Stewart recently credited his old friend and former musical director with rekindling his passion for song writing – their latest collaboration, 'Brighton Beach', is on Stewart's first new album of original material, Time, for fifteen years. Jim modestly accepts the acknowledgement, along with Stewart's endorsement of Cregan & Co, the band Jim has gathered 'to allow me to still get on a stage at 66 years of age' and play the songs he wrote and performed with Stewart. 'They're just as good and half the price,' is Rod's measured assessment.
Playing music has been Jim Cregan's life since the age of nine, when a friend of his father's gave him the uke. Fascinated, he began to pick out melodies on that one string and by the time he acquired Bill Haley's landmark 'Rock Around the Clock' a few months later, he was totally immersed in music. 'My father would lock the guitar in the cupboard and not let me have it until he had checked to make sure I had done my homework properly,' he remembers.
His soul in hock to rock 'n' roll, Jim formed his first group, the Falcons, at Poole Grammar School and set about becoming the area's fourteen-year-old answer to Hank Marvin.
'School held no interest for me, so when my dad got a job in London and moved the family up there, I was more concerned about leaving my band. I spent the next two years pretending to get an education, but what I really learned was that for all the hard work you put into learning your instrument, you also need a lot of outrageously good luck to make it.'
And so it was that Jim accompanied a drummer friend to audition for the legendary Joe Meek, the writer-producer behind hits such as 'Telstar', 'Johnny Remember Me' and 'Just Like Eddie'. With no musicians on hand for the drummer to accompany, Jim was volunteered and (unlike the drummer) so impressed Meek that he signed the 19-year-old guitarist up for the latest incarnation of the Tornados.
'It was terrible,' says Jim. 'They were on their last legs, playing these really down-market gigs, but it gave me a taste of life as a professional musician.'
Over the next ten years or so, he carved himself a niche as one of British music's most-admired guitarists, playing with the Ingoes, Blossom Toes, Julie Driscoll, Stud, Family and his future wife, Linda Lewis. He rubbed shoulders with pop stars, artists and actors, mixed with aristocrats and homeless hippies.
'I've been incredibly fortunate to have had this life, although I was never really moved by the fame side of things – that always seemed a bit shabby to me. There have been times when I wish I had more of that drive, but for me it was more about earning the respect of other musicians. Perhaps that's the difference between lead singers and lead guitarists.'
Typically, it was a combination of skill and luck that saw Jim hired as guitarist for Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel (he was a friend of the bass player, George Ford) in 1975. If he'd done no more than create the guitar solo for the band's best known hit, 'Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me)', then his place in music history would have been assured. 'Like all of my best work, that solo is what you get when I'm free to come up with something. There's a famous story about it being made up at a sound check, but it wasn't. It was about one in the morning in Studio Three at Abbey Road, where the Beatles used to record. I'd had a couple of brandies and it just came out. We did three takes and the version on the record is a composite of two different takes. I knew we had something that was good, but these things only take on the magic with time. As with any record, you make it the best you can, then you hand it over to the record company, whose job it is to sell it. At least, that's the old way of doing things.'
Starved of writing opportunities, Jim happily signed up for the original Rod Stewart Group in 1976. He stayed until an amicable split in 1995, co-writing and producing hits including 'Blondes (Have More Fun)', 'Tonight I'm Yours' and 'Forever Young' and winning a host of awards. They remain friends – they're godfathers to each other's children and Jim was best man at Rod's wedding to Penny Lancaster in 2007. 'I've always worked best as part of a team rather than a hired hand, which I was in Cockney Rebel. Rod wanted a team around him again and we had some incredible times – his next-door neighbour in Los Angeles was Gregory Peck who had a hole cut in his fence so we could go round to play tennis on his full-sized court whenever we liked. I remember one show in LA, I saw Peck and Fred Astaire in the Green Room so I joined them for a drink and Fred Astaire asked me who did our choreography. Hilarious! We made it up as we went along.
'I still get up and play the very occasional encore with Rod, but things move on and he rightly prefers to surround himself with people whose hair colour is different to mine.'
By his own admission Jim is not a prolific songwriter, but he has enjoyed some of the best foils in the business including regular Elton John ally Bernie Taupin, movie theme song expert Don Black, Carole King's partner/husband Gerry Goffin and Mike Batt, the man who made The Wombles and, more recently, discovered Katie Melua, with whom Jim made two albums – Call off the Search and Piece By Piece, including the international hit 'Nine
Million Bicycles'.
Energised by working with Melua, Jim returned to the UK about ten years ago. 'I have two beautiful children in LA who I see as often as I can and they come here whenever they can. I had a luxury home, Ferrari, amazing social life, great weather, but I missed this country. I was tired of the shallowness of LA and then I met a girl and we decided to start a family and that had to be here.
'My brother lived in Dubai and I was in LA so we were separated by twelve time zones. My sister was always the anchor with her house in Wick.
They have a beach hut at Mudeford Spit, which is where my American children want to spend their time when they're here – sleeping in the hut overnight and waking up to those beautiful views across the bay.
'What does Dorset mean to me? I was in the 1st Lilliput Sea Scouts at the age of 11 and I was taught to sail in a fixed keel boat by one of the seniors.
'He got me out on Whitecliff Bay, tied off the jib, then settled himself in the bottom of the boat and said: "Right, I'm going to have a sleep. Don't wake me unless we hit something – and don't bloody hit anything!" And that was it. No health and safety, I had to learn to sail. That's perfect Dorset.'

Mr. Lewis consulted with my wife on a contingency medical malpractice suit. He reviewed our case, turned us down and then billed us for $250. There was no fee discussion up front and no indication that there would be a charge for simply reviewing the case. Of three other lawyers who reviewed and discussed our case, none billed, and no fee was discussed. We questioned and disputed his billing, but to no avail. I paid him because that's the kind of person I am, but I would not recommend anyone doing business with him in the future.

I copied the link and already started sending it to friends who would be interested. Thank you, Paul.
I copied the link and already started sending it to friends who would be interested. Thank you, Paul.
Paul's Robot Auditor version runs entirely at the pace the person finds comfortable, and you do get to work out what you are going to run before the auditing commands start! Viewing the video again would make the instructions clearer.
I'll probably also put different-speed versions on YouTube to make it easier.
Thanks for passing it on to others. Feel free to add votes and comments at YouTube too.
By the way, were you looking at something off to your left?
I imagine the churchie reaction will be similar to the average FZer reaction:
The churchie reaction: "Hey--get a load of this! Man, whatever will those crazy squirrels think of next?!!"
The average FZer reaction: "Hey--get a load of this! Man, whatever will that crazy squirrel think of next?!!"
Shine On You Crazy Squirrel!
You know, there are also web resources for videoconferencing, some free I believe.
Off to the lower left was a clock, and around the 8:30 mark I was figuring out how to squeeze in the multiple-viewpoints command without going over YouTube's 10 minute limit.
They have an edit facility, but it doesn't work if the clip is over 8:00 long, I discovered.
I could have edited the thing on my own computer, after learning some new software, but I've been Qing and Aing for ages on doing this, waiting for the proper set-up and so on. So I just decided to do it despite everything and uploaded the second take. The first take I didn't have a microphone switched on!
It could be better, but it will do for now until I upload a better one.
So yeah, Paul!
Shine on you crazy squirrel!!!
And I wouldn't bother with editing it, it was no distraction at all. Just do another one and get it out there.

- Crisis management
crisis management is the communications management function used to convey accurate facts and data to the general public and to specific publics during a crisis situation in order to prevent or minimize negative publicity that could adversely affect the success of the company.
Crisis management involves identifying a crisis, planning a response to the crisis and confronting and resolving the crisis. Crisis management can be applied in almost any field of endeavor, but it is most commonly used in international relations, political science, business and management.
Many school districts have developed crisis response guides, which identify potential situations such as fires and other disasters, bomb threats, confronting unwelcome visitors, violence (and threats thereof) and the death of a student.
In general terms, the theory of crisis management can be divided into crisis bargaining and negotiation, crisis decision making, and crisis dynamics.
In a crisis, always sit down and think hard about your decision, and for as long as needed (or allowed) about ways in which you can resolve it.
It has to be you. that applies even if somebody else has to carry the burden of action - how you brief, direct and control the other or other will vital to the outcome.

B-26 Marauder Archives
The B-26 Marauder Archives: We preserve the history and memories of Marauder Men and Women for Future Generations.
During World War II the relatively under appreciated Martin B-26 Marauder flew missions in almost every theater of operations. The United States Army Air Force flew this speedy medium bomber from bases at Midway, the Aleutians, Guadalcanal, Australia, New Guinea, North Africa, Mediterranean, France, England, Holland, Belgium and here in the United States. The USAAF was not the only organization that flew it, the United States Navy, the British Royal Air Force, the Free French Air Force and the South African Air Force all flew the B-26. Many of these aircraft went on to complete over 100 missions. The most famous of its type, Flak Bait flew 207 missions, more than any other bomber in World War II.
Yet despite these great accomplishments the Marauder never received the national attention and fame that many other aircraft did. Part of this is due to an unfortunate negative image that the aircraft received. Due to a high crash rate with early models the B-26 acquired such negative nicknames as the Widow Maker, The Flying Prostitute and One a Day in Tampa Bay. After making several design changes and lengthening the training time for crews, the Marauder went on to a stellar war career. In fact the Widow Maker ended up with one of the best safety records of any bomber in World War II.
To preserve the history of this important bomber, the Marauder Historical Society started the International Archive of the Martin B-26 Marauder, and chose the Pima Air and Space Museum as its official repository. Over time we have assembled the largest collection of papers, photos and objects that relate to the B-26. This archive has collections from the men and women, who designed, built, flew, maintained and supported the Martin B-26 Marauder.
Even though we have amassed a large and rather comprehensive archive we are still looking for new papers, photos or objects that are related to the Martin B-26 Marauder. We need your help to preserve the history of Marauder Men and Women for future generations.

Scoring changes associated with the redesigned SAT and new data layouts will have an impact on financial aid policies and processes.
Your brochures, websites, and other communications that describe scholarships or provide application instructions may need to be updated if they discuss SAT scores. Consider information about external scholarships your students use and about your college's scholarships.
Information Systems
System modifications may also be necessary:
- If your financial aid information system uses SAT scores, make sure they're up to date. The College Board is working with a range of vendors to ensure they are ready for the changes.
- If your net price calculator includes questions about SAT scores, it should be updated to fully utilize scores on the redesigned SAT.
Collaboration with Colleagues
Work with colleagues in other offices to:
- Plan for the use of concordance tables in campus processes. Tables will be provided in May 2016.
- Plan research studies on the effective use of SAT scores in awarding scholarships. Determine which data you'll need to retain to complete that research.
- Make sure financial aid and admission offices can upload scores in October 2015 when electronic score reports will be delivered using new data layouts.

Well, I don't actually have a horse but if I did . . . *wink* Anyway, sorry to have disappeared on y'all for so long. A lot of things have been going on here. For one, we moved at the beginning of December and we are still trying to assemble some semblance of order at our new place. It didn't help that we had some car issues around the same time. We've also been busy with the standard holiday preparations (just finished my second batch of Christmas cards last night). Add to that two night classes that I'm taking to aid in my professional teaching certification (I have the temporary already though) and we've barely had time to breathe lately! As I mentioned in my last post, I was recently asked to join the Guest Designer team for Starving Artistamps. I have been working feverishly to complete my batch samples and I am happy to be able to share one of them with you tonight. I used a watercolor technique on this beauty and although it is not my typical style, I am pleased with the results. These images are from Starving Artistamps' new Equestrian and Southwestern lines. I have featured the set of three horse silhouettes (6012), sentiment (6102), feather (from Southwestern sheet), and sun (15.09). Hopefully I will be able to share some of my other design team creations soon! I also have a bunch of other new toys to play with, so check back soon for an update (promise!) . . .

A 49-year-old motorcyclist was killed on Interstate 12 near Interstate 55 on Saturday after running into the rear of a moving car, State Police said.
Larry Seemann, of Osyka, Mississippi, was heading east on I-12 near I-55 around 12:45 a.m. when he hit the back of a car and flew off his motorcycle, said Master Trooper Greg Marchand, a State Police spokesman.
Seemann was pronounced dead at the scene. He was wearing a helmet, but it was not approved by the Department of Transportation, Marchand said.
Police are not yet sure whether intoxication was a factor in the crash.

I got my nose piercing on the 4th of July. Well on the 29th it will have been 8 weeks. I got some new piercings to change out when it is time. Now I am growing impatient. I am getting conflicting information. Some places say to not change them out until 4 weeks, some 6 weeks, some 8 weeks. My piercer suggests 12 weeks. I really don't want to wait 12 weeks. Throughout the whole healing process I have not gotten any infection or irritation. I have left it not clean for weeks at a time (not on purpose) but still did not get an infection. I have accidentally pulled it out and put it back in about 10 times with no ill effect. So in the end it is healing exspremely fast and very well. What do you guys suggest to wait for it to heal before changing piercing?
