|More information:
They forever changed America: Lucy Stone, Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Frances Willard, Alice Paul. At their revolution's start in the 1840s, a woman's right to speak in public was questioned. By its conclusion in 1920, the victory in woman's suffrage had also encompassed the most fundamental rights of citizenship: the right to control wages, hold property, to contract, to sue, to testify in court. Their struggle was confrontational (women were the first to picket the White House for a political cause) and violent (women were arrested, jailed, and force-fed in prisons). And like every revolutionary before them, their struggle was personal.

It's "Marketing" that drives your business.
You've got to first tell them about all the benefits they'll get from using your product or service.
You've got to make them an irresistible offer and lead them every step of the way.
Then you've got to remove any risk they perceive of doing business with you.
That is marketing!
There are 4 fundamental elements of successful marketing:
Step 1 – Figure out your product - You must have a quality product or service with widespread appeal and you need to be either competitively priced, or offer something that's superior to what anybody else offers.
Step 2 – Figure out your prospects - You must have a market to sell to.
Step 3 – Figure out your media - You must have a way to get your message across to your market.
Step 4 – Figure out your message - The message is your communication with your market. It's everything you put into your advertising and marketing materials to convince prospects and customers to buy.
All 4 elements are essential to marketing success.
Do you know how much each customer is worth to your business?
One of the major concepts you need to understand is the Lifetime Value of a Customer.. It's vital to your success for two important reasons.
Reason #1 - You've got to know where you are before you can determine where you're going. This gives you a basic idea to track your future results.
Reason #2 - Until you know exactly what each new customer is worth to your business, you won't know how much money you should spend to get that customer.
According to world-famous marketer Jay Abraham, there are only 3 ways to grow any business:
1. Increase the number of customers
2. Increase the unit value of each purchase transaction
3. Increase the number of purchases each customer makes
A marketing system is a process to continually attract new prospects and to continue serving existing customers.
Simple Checklist To Ensure Business Success:
1. Generate quality leads consistently and economically.
2. Convert as many of those leads as possible into sales.
3. Ensure that you delight your customers so they'll be pre-disposed to buy from you and recommend your company to others.
4. Repeatedly sell to your family of existing customers.
5. Ask customers to refer others who may want the same benefits.
6. Keep going back to step#1 and repeat the pattern again.
4 Keys To Creating A Winning Marketing System:
1. Create effective advertising that gets attention and stimulates desire.
2. Create compelling marketing messages that qualified prospects find difficult to resist.
3. You need a method of accessing the best possible prospective customers in order to make your offer available to them.
4. You need to find the most effective way to get your compelling messages in front of those most likely to buy.
Do you know it's not the best product or service that wins; it's the best marketed product or service that really sells.
Implement the simple 6-step formula for creating advertising that works:
1. Message—Get your message delivered to the right prospects.
2. Attention —Command the attention of those prospects so your message doesn't get overlooked.
3. Self-Interest—Appeal to the "wants" of your target prospects instead of their needs. Wants are emotional…needs are logical and the heart often overrules the head.
4. Advantages—communicate the unique advantages of your product or service.
5. Proof - need to provide evidence of the advantages that you present. Proof makes your statements much more believable and credible.
6. Action—Move your prospects to act on your offer immediately by promising an additional incentive
Leverage is about multiplying the power of your advertising and marketing to gain a far greater yield for your investment.
It's about using your time, energy and marketing firepower, to get ten or twenty times the result in less time.
Most customers making a purchase prefer to buy from someone they know, like and trust.
By doing a joint venture, another company will be promoting your offer in exchange for a share in a percentage of the profits.
This creates a WIN-WIN deal for you and the JV business owner. You don't have to spend any upfront money in advertising and you only pay your JV partner when sales are made.
Leverage Checklist To Improve Upon Your Current Results:
1. Use smaller, well-designed ads that pack a punch, as opposed to costly, larger ads.
2. Always test small before rolling out a big campaign.
3. Choose better targeted publications or mailing lists
4. Take advantage of low-cost marketing options
5. Renew the sales relationship within active or past customers.
6. Create superior advertising that promotes irresistible offers and highlights your competitive advantages
7. Rework your follow-up material so recipients are literally compelled to buy from you
8. Once your system is working, expand your marketing reach and put it on autopilot
It is impossible to target your products or services to everyone and that's why it's so important that you have a well-defined target market.
The best way to stand out from the crowd is to clearly identify who is your ideal target audience for the product or service you are offering.
5 Point Checklist When Seeking Target Niches
Look for markets that have the following:
1. Share common problems and have similar "wants" so that you can, in effect, "package" solutions that serve many, rather than customizing solutions to individual, specific requirements
2. You can reach easily and affordably.
3. Are easily identifiable by those who are under-served by others in the market
4. Can easily pay for your products or services
5. Show a past history of buying related products or services in the recent past, where the dollar volume of each purchase is close to or more than the cost of your product.
How to define your customer avatar
You need to answer the following top 13 questions:
1. Are my customers male or female or both?
2. How old are my customers?
3. What is their income level?
4. What is their education level?
5. What are my customer's interests?
6. What are my customers fears/concerns/worries?
7. What is my customer's current situation?
8. What do my customers need help with?
9. What are their likes and dislikes?
10. What are their values and beliefs?
11. Where do they get their information?
12. What groups do they belong to?
13. How do they prefer to communicate?
By answering these 13 questions will bring clarity on who truly is your ideal customer avatar. It's so important to take the time and do this exercise so all your marketing
Why should prospects do business with you?
According to Robert Allen, you can create your unique selling proposition (USP). Remember that your USP must offer customers a specific, unique benefit-- a proposition that differentiates you from your competitors.
You can create your USP in 3 simple steps:
1. Ultimate Advantage
2. Sensational Offer
3. Powerful Promise
Once you discover what your ultimate advantage is, create a sensational offer and then provide a powerful promise, you would have done more for your business than 99% of all other businesses.
Your goal is to gain the attention of your prospects by offering them a free giveaway or unbeatable deal, or tremendous discount so you can start building a relationship with them.
Below are a list of ideas you can implement:
- An extended warranty
- Free 1 hour consultation/strategy session
- Free resource tools
- A special feature appearance on your site
- Free advertisement in your newsletter
- Free 30 day trial
- A low installment payment plan
- $1 access to your membership site for the first month
Your goal is to gain the attention of your prospects by offering them a free giveaway or unbeatable deal, or tremendous discount so you can start building a relationship with them.
STEP ONE – Create a list of ideas you can offer new prospects
STEP TWO – Pick one idea and implement this offer into your business immediately.
STEP THREE – Once you are successful with one idea, test another idea or add another idea to make your offer more appealing.
"You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want." - Zig Ziglar
The key is to give more in actual use value, than you ask for in cash value. Offer more than competitors do and the perceived value of your product increases tremendously.
STEP ONE – Make a list of what makes your company different
STEP TWO: Think of more ways you can deliver more value
STEP THREE: Think of ways you can help your customers more

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
We had a house together, cars, land, farm, bank accounts.
If your husband passed away without a will, then any property that was owned solely by him when he passed away would become part of his "probate estate" and would be distributed to your state's statutory intestacy scheme (a statute that provides for who gets what when someone passes away without a will).
You mention that you were married and had a house, cars, land, farm and bank accounts. Some or all of these assets may pass outside the "probate estate" because of how they were owned (presumably with you as joint owner, perhaps with right of survivorship). If you owned some or all of these assets with your husband as joint owner with right of survivorship, then those assets which are titled as such will become yours, regardless of what your state statute provides. However, if your husband owned some or all of those assets jointly with you (or someone else) without right of survivorship, then a portion of that asset would belong in his "probate estate." Additionally, as mentioned previously, if your husband owned any assets individually (without any other name on it/them), then those assets would be part of his "probate estate."
In order to determine more specific information regarding the property and how it will be distributed, you should contact an estate planning and probate attorney in your area to review the assets owned and discuss the state law as it specifically applies to you.Ask a similar question
I'm an attorney practicing in Alabama so this answer will assume that your husband was a resident of Alabama at the time of his death. Since your husband died without a will, his estate is referred to as an "intestate" estate. As a result, his probate estate will pass according to the laws of intestacy as set out by the Alabama legislature.
This answer assumes that your husband only had the one son who is also your son. Under that fact scenario, you would receive 100% of the first $50,000 of your husband's net probate estate (estate after expenses and debts). Any value over that amount must be split equally between you and your son.
This answer comes as a surprise to most people. However, this law only applies to assets that are considered probate assets and subject to probate. In other words, nonprobate assets do not count to toward the $50,000 amount discussed above.
Your house, car, and certain bank accounts may be nonprobate assets if they are owned jointly with you. It will depend on how they are titled. Other assets, such as life insurance policies and retirement accounts, usually pass according to their beneficiary designation. If all of your husband's assets turn out to be nonprobate assets, then there may not even be a reason to probate his estate.
However, I must advise you to see an attorney who practices in trusts and estates to review everything he owned so that there is no question about how the assets are titled and whether they are probate or nonprobate assets. Thank you for your question.
Thad A. Davis is an Alabama attorney. As such, his responses on this site are limited to his understanding of the facts as cited in the posted question and his understanding of the law in his state. No answer should be considered legal advice, nor does an answer create an attorney-client relationship. Anyone desiring specific legal advice should consult an attorney in the relevant state.Ask a similar question
The state of Alabama deteremines where your husband's property goes if he did not have a will. This law will split his estate between you and his children. Any accounts or real estate that were jointly owned with survivorship are yours, however, and not part of his estate.
Ay property owned by your husband, in his name aone, will make up his probate estate that will be split betwwen you and his children.Ask a similar question

A blind Athens man who complained about tripping over sidewalk signs downtown says a proposed ordinance restricting the signs does not go far enough.

"If this passes, I think I won't be able to walk on the sidewalk in Athens anymore," Sam Evans said. "I'll just have to walk in the street."
The Athens-Clarke County Commission will consider the ordinance at its agenda-setting meeting at 7 p.m. today.
Athens-Clarke already has similar ordinances on the books, but commissioners decided not to enforce them in September after business owners said they needed the signs to advertise. Commissioners told county attorneys to write a new version that took the owners' free speech rights into account.
The proposed ordinance puts limits on the size, location and number of signs downtown businesses can place on the sidewalk, with the goal of clearing a 5-foot path for pedestrians.
The problem is, the ordinance would clear space on the street side of the sidewalk, where blind pedestrians have to contend with street signs, parking meters and low-hanging branches, Evans said.
The commission will likely vote on the ordinance at its March 1 voting meeting.
Commissioners also will consider another downtown-related ordinance tonight, one that bans serving alcohol in detached sidewalk cafes. The owner of a now-closed College Avenue restaurant, Blue Sky Cafe, asked that the ordinance be changed to allow waiters to cross publicly owned sidewalks to serve beer and wine to customers in a detached cafe about five feet away.
The Legislative Review Committee, one of the commission's two standing committees, recommended against the request last month, saying it would violate open container laws and be difficult to enforce.
In other business, the commission will discuss:
A schedule for funding 33 sales tax projects over the next six years. Construction on a fire station in north Athens-Clarke and improvements to an east Athens park are slated to begin in 2006, while building a tennis center might be pushed back to 2011.
A request for a refund of 2003 property taxes, about $6,500, from Athens Area Habitat for Humanity.
The award of a contract for construction of the Family Protection Center.

Land The Plane Tue, Feb 02, 2016
I know that I don't often talk about my alma mater, or have both my car and desk decked out in college memorabilia, and I certainly didn't name my dog Tucker after a certain SEC institution from which I earned my degree. So this might be news to some of you, but I am a 2010 graduate of the University of Kentucky, and as such, I'm a proud Wildcat who will bleed blue until my last day.
As a UK graduate, it's a rite of passage to be a diehard Kentucky basketball fan. As such, Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari walks on water for UK fans and anything he says inevitably ends up on a t-shirt. Luckily for the many enterprising t-shirt companies of the Commonwealth, the man is a walking quote machine and seems to find appropriate sayings for his teams each year, which he then proceeds to drop ad nauseam throughout the season.
In 2010, his first year at Kentucky, and with a roster including John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins, Eric Bledsoe and Patrick Patterson, his central theme for the team's NCAA tournament run that season was to "land the plane." In the tournament, all you're promised is the one game in front of you - survive and advance. Cal's meaning behind his "land the plane" theme was this: take the craziness of the situation, the intensity of the atmosphere, the pressure of the game and focus on one thing only: winning. Just land the plane - despite how many turnovers, how many missed free throws or how many guys foul out - and you'll advance to the next game.
Brig has emphasized many times that this is a very pivotal time for us. There's craziness and intensity and pressure coming from every direction, and making that leap to the next level of SlideBelts as a business depends on us landing the plane every day. Becoming proficient in this practice ensures that we get to that next level, which Brig has surely been envisioning since the SlideBelts seed was planted years ago. Game time ✊
*Note: I can't promise this will be the last UK-centric Loop. I'll do my best to keep them to a minimum.

Last Month at the Federal Circuit - January 2005
Judges: Dyk (author), Newman, and Archer
In Iron Grip Barbell Co. v. USA Sports, Inc., No. 04-1149 (Fed. Cir. Dec. 14, 2004), the Federal Circuit affirmed a finding of invalidity of several claims of U.S. Patent No. 6,436,015 ("the '015 patent") based on obviousness. Iron Grip Barbell Company, Inc. ("Iron Grip") manufactures barbell weight plates and owns the '015 patent, which discloses a weight plate with three elongated openings near the periphery of the plate that function effectively as handles. The prior art includes weight plates with one, two, and four openings. USA Sports, Inc. ("USA Sports") also manufactures a three-grip weight plate. After Iron Grip sued USA Sports, a district court judge found the '015 patent invalid for obviousness on SJ. In comparing the prior art to the claimed invention, the Federal Circuit warned of the dangers of a hindsight bias in determining obviousness. However, the Court noted that the key feature of the '015 patent—the fact that there are three elongated handles—falls squarely within a range disclosed by the prior art. Where the prior art discloses a range encompassing a somewhat narrower claim range, the Court concluded, the narrower range may be obvious; indeed, there is a presumption of obviousness. That presumption will be rebutted if it can be shown that the prior art taught away from the claimed invention or that there were new and unexpected results relative to the prior art. Here, there was no showing of either mitigating factor. Although Iron Grip had entered into three license agreements with respect to the '015 patent, two of those licenses were taken in settlement of litigation. The Federal Circuit explained that because it may be cheaper to take licenses than to defend infringement suits, evidence of commercial success, as presented by a license, is given little weight if the patentee does not demonstrate a nexus between the merits of the invention and the licenses. Here, there was no evidence of such a nexus; hence, the licenses were given little significance.

While I was not logged as in a TP Member, I used the search function to to photos in have uploaded. I just clicked the down arrow for photos and entered the criteria as 'hasbeen'. There is no result.
I did another search for 'All Areas" - still no photos but I did spot 'Members' at the bottom. That took me to my profile where I was able to then choose to see 'more photos by hasbeen'
I have no idea why those photos appeared - it seems a bit random.
When I click 'Start Slideshow' nothing happens even when I wait a while.
I thought maybe that function is only available to members so I logged on & tried the whole sequence again.
Still no luck. No Slide show. And quite difficult to find 'My Photos' or anyone elses.

Giant Eagle Takes Tops' 18 Markets in Ohio
PITTSBURGH - Affirming what local observers have speculated was coming for weeks, Giant Eagle, Inc. here said yesterday it is acquiring 18 stores in northeastern Ohio from Tops Markets, the Ahold subsidiary that was put on the block in early July.
PITTSBURGH - Affirming what local observers have speculated was coming for weeks, Giant Eagle, Inc. here said yesterday it is acquiring 18 stores in northeastern Ohio from Tops Markets, the Ahold subsidiary that was put on the block in early July.
The deal will find the Pittsburgh market's leading grocer operating 13 new, corporately-owned Giant Eagle stores; one independently-owned Giant Eagle location; and four Dave's Supermarkets with Giant Eagle pharmacies. The family-run Dave's operates nine Cleveland-area locations, and was founded by Dave Saltzman in 1928.
(Story continues below.)
The new supermarket locations - situated in Cuyahoga, Summit, Lorain, Medina, and Huron counties -- will complement the existing 112 Giant Eagle supermarkets in Ohio, and preserve jobs for thousands of northeast Ohio residents, the chain said. Giant Eagle first entered the northeast Ohio market in 1998.
Giant Eagle said it expects the transaction to close in the fourth quarter. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Tops and Giant Eagle said they have been working together with the leadership of the Local 880 United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) union and Local 19 of the Bakers, Confectioners, Tobacconists, and Grain Millers (BCTGM) union to preserve as many of the full and part time jobs in the region as possible.
Tops -- a unit of the Carlisle, Pa.-based Giant Food Stores -- will now be left with 72 Tops Markets and four Martin's Super Food Stores in New York and Pennsylvania. Tops said it continues to work with prospective purchasers for the remaining stores, and will be finalizing additional agreements by the end of the year.
After Tops' store inventory liquidation sales are completed in early December, Giant Eagle said the stores will close temporarily for restocking and re-merchandising. During this temporary closure, the in-store pharmacies will remain open, allowing customers to continue to order and pick up prescriptions. Giant Eagle will then reopen the former Tops locations in a phased approach, beginning in mid-December, with a second round of stores opening in January of 2007, and culminating in late summer of 2007 with three stores which will replace existing Giant Eagle supermarkets.
Giant Eagle said it further anticipates that the stores will undergo progressive enhancements in the future. It also said it further plans to aggressively pursue additional GetGo locations in the northeast Ohio marketplace to add additional redemption locations for its popular fuelperks! loyalty rewards program.
Agreeing to acquire the pharmacy records for the Tops pharmacies, Giant Eagle said it intends to provide a convenient and seamless transition for new customers whose prescription files are involved in the purchase, and for other customers affected by the pending Tops store closures. Giant Eagle plans to operate pharmacies in both Giant Eagle and Dave's supermarkets involved in the transaction.
Giant Eagle said it will release further details about the transaction the chain's evolving presence in Ohio later.

About Me
Thanks so much for visiting my Page, if you like what you see here, please visit my page on facebook which is: http://www.facebook.com/#/pages/JEPhoto … 97?ref=sgm
I am a energetic photographer I was based out of Georgetown, DE.and now just moved to Montreal QC. I never limit myself behind the camera, and no matter what, I always do what it takes to get the perfect image. My job doesn't just involve pushing a button and take a Photo. As far as images go, I love shooting the edgy side, to bring out the power in sensuality. Glamour photography in the Maxim style is my forte. So, if this is what you're looking for, perhaps we can work together. Shoots should be fun and enjoyable! Your comfort, and respect, is top priority and will never be compromised. I don't always have the time to check my account, so if you would like to inquire about a booking or simply ask me a question it will get to me faster if you send me an email to: firstname.lastname@example.com Thanks again for stopping by!
I offer TF/TFCD shoots to develop your portfolio. I have shot a number of models. However, I do not pay models for shoots. I do my very best to produce great images, ones that will "pop" out to the viewer, so that they are noticed. Before a shoot is established, we will have to arrange a time, and date. Please take this into account. I put a lot of time and money into my sessions, so please be on time and serious about the session. If you cant make it, just call beforehand.
*** I will not pay for any models. I will travel at no charge for a very interesting shoot. I do sometime offer TF/TFCD***
Please, feel free to bring an escort if you choose.

Miami Vice: The Complete Collection is a powerful monument to composer Jan Hammer's groundbreaking soundtrack to one of television's most memorable series. With over two hours of music, the two compact discs feature 42 memorable cuts, including 22, which have never been released to the public before. Miami Vice redefined television and Jan Hammer's soundtrack completely redefined the way in which shows were scored. The result was a chart-topping commercial success never before seen from a television soundtrack and international acclaim for series and composer alike.
Chronological development of popular music from 1960 to 1997, the impact of social change on the text and style of music. Immerse yourself in a nostalgic trip, remember how it was different before. For the older generation it - a memory, a wonderful meeting with the youth and for the young - a unique opportunity to hear music that is virtually nowhere is not sound.
Beyond the Mind's Eye is Grammy award-winning keyboardist/composer Jan Hammer's first solo album in over five years. The 14 tracks, composed for Miramar's new video album, are different than the Video soundtrack. The audio release is remixed, features extended arrangements, and has a bonus vocal track sung by Chris Thompson of The Manfred Mann Group. Known for his Miami Vice music, Hammer provides a potent fusion which is perfect for this arena where modern music meets the visual arts.
Ricardo Tubbs is urbane and dead smart. He lives with Bronx-born Intel analyst Trudy, as they work undercover transporting drug loads into South Florida to identify a group responsible for three murders.

Through processing the information academics are able to build knowledge, increase research capacity and export ideas & products; thus develop the UAE as a regional leader in business creation. To this end, Etisalat has kindly offered its full support to the advanced research and education network to enhance knowledge creation.
Our national network provides unconstrained network capacity optimized for the needs of the education and research communities. The Ankabut team comprises of a collection of telecom and computer centre engineers who are first and foremost academics, and understand the requirements of research and education.
The core network is made up of 10 Gbit/s connectivity between our core routers located in all major cities. Ankabut connects eligible establishments by dark fiber to the city pop and transmits at 1 Gbit/s to the city router. All network connectivity services are implemented using the Internet Protocol over Ethernet and incorporate jumbo frames. The network is both IPv4 and IPv6 enabled.
Network capabilities:
Ankabut can offer a number of network services. These include the following areas:
Basic IP connectivity allows the connection together of institutions to share each other's servers, computing power, storage, and databases. The network enables a set of real-time services like voice and video conferencing, broadcasting lectures or student class, and allowing subject matter experts to offer master-classes from around the world.
Smaller institutions can take advantage of combining Internet 1 with the research-and-education traffic to offer a seamless data package to the desktop.
Multi-site institutions can be grouped with their own Virtual-Private-Network (VPN), this means that an institution's private LAN can be extended to distant locations with the full knowledge that the data is transferred in a secure, reliable and private manner.
The Ankabut organisation is a Local Internet Registry (LIR), which means that those eligible to connect can request IPv4; IPv6 and AS numbers so that institutions can create their own network that is addressable by the rest of the world.
Ankabut can supply connectivity at 1Gbit/s, and for larger institutions demonstrating demand, can utilize 10Gbit/s interfacing.
Ankabut offers a reliable DNS service, so that institutions can do their own domain name look-ups (NS-Look-up service) This allows intuitions to point their own local DNS servers to be able to resolve full qualified domain names (FQDN) from around the world.
Ankabut offers a NTP service. This service utilises the time signal from the GPS atomic clocks to synchronise a rubidium laser oscillator. This creates a very accurate stratum two clock that is made available to the Ankabut connected users.

I love a sweeping generalisation, so I'm going to make one here. As the 86 tram winds its way down Gertrude and Smith streets and begins the slow climb up High Street to Northcote, pant legs start to widen, dreadlocks begin to sprout where once there were none, and median rents decrease by at least ten cents per month. More importantly for breakfast eaters, portion sizes balloon without an accompanying blow to the wallet.
Penny Farthing is a true Northcote-style eatery, and I say that with much love. It's not painfully slick; there's no attitude. Staff members greet you as you arrive and seem to actually care about whether or not you enjoyed your meal. There is normal seating available (hot tip, Fitzcollingwood cafes: milk crates and vintage children's chairs aren't all that comfy) and you don't need to sneakily Google ingredients to decipher the menu.
In fact, the all-day breakfast menu is a pretty straightforward affair, with toast'n'sides, Bircher muesli and eggs many ways. That said, it's all nicely done and there is genuine care in the details, whether that's house-made cultured butter with your toast or a side of chilli oil with your avocado smash. There's also the occasional pleasant surprise, like the semolina chai porridge with carrot, chilli and walnut compote. This velvety delight tastes like nanna's carrot cake put through a blender, and is a far cry from the claggy stuff of childhood nightmares.
The pea and sage bruschetta is an exercise in freshness, with peppery watercress balancing out the creamy smoked salmon, and the whole shebang topped off with a nicely wobbly poached egg. Also worth checking out are the light and fluffy corn fritters with almond capsicum relish and crispy bacon. Both of these meals are larger than the typical inner-north offering, so props to the waiter for not raising an eyebrow at our side order of porridge.
Coffee is a big deal at Penny Farthing, since the team behind Fitzroy-based roaster and wholesaler, Industry Beans, owns the cafe. Blackboards are loaded with the latest limited release single origins and there's an equally impressive selection of tea available. If you like to brunch like you're in advertising in the '80s, delicious coffee-and bicycle-themed cocktails are available from 5pm, Tuesday to Sunday. Folks from down the hill might enjoy a Fixie (vodka, kahlua, double ristretto), but I'd be happy with the boozy coffee-orange goodness of a Bali Trike.

Most Helpful Guy
On average they are shorter than Danes, but there are a lot of tall people here too. I don't think you will have any problems at all. I've been to Copenhagen and the girls were beautiful!!!

Kim Zolciak may have a little football player on her hands!
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star shared this adorable photo of her 1-year-old baby boy, KJ, staring up at someone special — his father and NFL star, Kroy Biermann.
EXCLUSIVE: Real Housewives of Atlanta's Kim Zolciak reveals post-baby body: "I've lost 30 pounds"
"Looking up at daddy #pricelessbabykj," the 34-year-old tweeted to her over 550,000 followers on Feb. 3.
And we agree, KJ does look priceless! Wearing a sweet gray Mickey Mouse zip-up sweater and a knitted winter cap, his baby blues speak volumes. We're just happy to see the little guy smiling, especially after spending the holidays in a cast!

Perhaps KJ is looking up at his football playing future? He definitely idolizes his father!
Though papa Kroy's team, the Atlanta Falcons, missed out on a Super Bowl title this year, we're pretty sure coming home to a face like this helps ease the pain.
After the 27-year-old defensive end and his team lost to the San Francisco 49ers (who ended up losing to the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday!) on Jan. 20, Kroy and Kim enjoyed some time with their gorgeous family — sharing pics of the athlete smooching up their 6-month-old baby boy, Kash.

Along with being a mom to her two young boys, Kim also has two girls, Brielle and Ariana, from a previous relationship.
By the way KJ looks, we can only imagine how happy this stunning family is each and every day!
Woo hoo!

Discussion in 'NFL Zone' started by Q_the_man, Nov 14, 2004.
bring the jets back?
Lets break the ravens
Another drop by a Jets reciever that would of been a first down.
QC seems to be reading the field better,
Wow how nice would it be to have a QB and a RB?
2:00 warning and Jets inside 20!
And that OL. That OL is exceptional.
Would love to have Martin over George.
what's wrong with Phil Simms, talking about the "tremendous read progression" job Q is doing?
certainly he can't have forgotten Carter has" no field vision/can't read the field."
A rb sure gives a QB some confidence and QC seems to be playing with poise and going through his reads, don't get conservative.
And don't let Jordan throw it.
QB draw by QC for the first.
Now that's a play we can no longer run.
Let's see VT do that!
Attaboy Quincy, on that draw.
QC had the ball out there a little bit on the run.
14 seconds to go. Throw it in the endzone or throw it away.
Good job throwing it away.
I'd run the ball here (if they have a timeout). That would catch the Ravens D off guard.
Either the OC got the play to him too late, or he took too long getting the play to the rest of the Offense. Somebody screwed up there, but better to call timeout then to take the penalty.
He heard you on the out of bounds throw, but that mistake just cost them the ability to run.
This is a gutless call. They have time to throw one in the endzone. They don't have to kick it yet.
They either don't trust QC to not make a mistake or they believe in him enough to do it again.
Which is it?
what a game!
jets tails!

Fits like a glove and looks luscious!

IKEA Junkie
After spending a couple of years living in Spain, I was excited to return to the States and setup a new home. Since I'd become accustomed to a tiny, furnished apartment full of cheerful IKEA home goods while abroad, IKEA was my first stop for decorating a new place on a budget. After wandering the living room maze for an hour, I was stumped how to create my own style with their limited slipcover options. I went home assuming someone online would offer a solution to this decorating dilemma. But I was shocked to discover no one in the US was making covers for the most popular IKEA sofa models.
Fast forward a couple of years and some restless nights pondering the question, "Why isn't anyone making covers for IKEA furniture in the US?" Really, I'm not kidding. It kept me up at night. Yes, there were companies outside the US making beautiful slipcovers. But the import duties/taxes/fees to get them to the States was as expensive as the actual covers. So eventually I decided to combine my IKEA fanaticism with my passion for sewing and fabrics to make it happen. I opened my Etsy shop and began selling my first covers in 2010. Knesting.com was then launched a few months later in early 2011 to make it even easier to show fabric options, slipcover prices and in stock availability.
(¯`'•.¸(¯`'•.¸(¯`'•.¸ And just in time for the HOLIDAYS!!!!¸.•'´¯)¸.•'´¯)¸.•'´¯)
Back by popular demand, we've sewn up a limited number of wonderful upcycled cashmere goodies. These 100% cashmere items make the most wonderful holiday gifts or just a nice treat for yourself :)
Shop members
Instead of daycare, I spent my formative years playing in a fabric store where I absorbed a love of crafts and sewing. And I've never been able to shake my passion for creating.
Shop policies
We will be accepting orders for out of stock items through June 18th. Another important change will be in regards to our return and order cancellation policy. As of today, June 11th, we will no longer be able to accept returns of all future orders unless the item is found to be defective. All sales will be final. We will also not be able to offer refunds for cancelled orders still in production. After June 19th, please be aware that customer service response time will be slower than usual as I transition into a new city and a new job. We will also be shipping orders on a less frequent basis, so it may take up to 10 business days to get in stock orders shipped out after the 19th. If you have any questions during this time, the best way to contact us will be via email at customerservice [!at] knesting.com.
I would love to thank all of the customers who have graciously given us their business over the years and supported our small made in the USA operation. It has been a great delight to receive kind comments from happy customers and we've always loved seeing photos of our slipcovers in action in your homes. Many thanks from Susan and the whole Knesting team!!!!!!
Accepted payment methods
FreshKnesting only ships within the US and to Canada.
Refunds and Exchanges
Please let me know if you have any problems with your order and I will work to resolve the situation. I want all of my customers happy with their purchases! Refunds on in stock covers are allowed if the item is returned clean and undamaged within 10 business days of receipt.
There is a 15% RESTOCKING/CANCELLATION FEE on all returns and exchanges FOR SLIPCOVERS (does NOT apply to cashmere gifts). Any changes in fabric selection made 24 hours after placing an order will also incur the 15% fee. If you have any concerns at all regarding fabric selections and how they will work with your decor, I highly recommend ordering swatches from our website from the following link to see the fabrics first hand and avoid any surprises:
Shipping charges are not refunded unless the product is defective. Before sending a purchase back, the customer must notify me first for return address info and so that I can know to be on the lookout for a returned package.

I am running Symantec Corporate 7.6 on our workstations. I know it is an older version but it keeps working and updating without having to renew every year. Our workstations have Windows XP with SP2 installed. Spiceworks does not detect that there is an anti-virus installed. Is this because it is an older version?
Thanks for any help.
5 Replies
Feb 28, 2008 at 9:48 UTC
Holy cow! I'm not trying to be judgemental on your Corp Ed 7 as sadly it is probably the most stable, thinnest and therefore best of the Corp Ed versions, but are you sure you are getting new DAT files and other updates on your workstations?
I have been with Symantec Corp Edition since the 7 versions. I am now using the HORRIBLE Endpoint 11 product--see my thread at: http:/
My guess is Corp Ed 7.6 is too old for Spiceworks to identify as an antivirus product given its "end of life" status by Symantec. One would think, however, that using Spiceworks you can still determine (a) if the software is installed and (b) set up Spiceworks to notify you of Events (in the individual machine logs) triggered by Corp Ed 7.6 clients.
Feb 28, 2008 at 12:54 UTC
Same problem here (AV not detected) but we're using Corp Ed 9.
I believe it is because we disable XP SP2 Security Center in a GPO on the domain. Spiceworks uses WMI to query Sec. Center to get the status of the AV.
I was about to start testing EP11 here... I guess you advise against this?
Feb 28, 2008 at 1:22 UTC
It's ironic, but I was just having a conversation about our Corp 7 version this morning and it was nothing to do with this Spiceworks issue. I was told by a consultant that even though our version 7 is updating with new definitions, that the "engine" that it uses will not work as well as with the new versions and therefore is missing all kinds of viruses and spyware.
I'm not sure I entirely believe him but I suppose its possible.
So for now, I will not worry about Spiceworks not finding my anti-virus even though it finds it as an installed application.
I suppose now I will also look into getting new anti-virus software. The consultant recommended....you guessed it...EndPoint 11.
Feb 28, 2008 at 1:32 UTC
I believe your consultant is mostly correct. It's not that it doesn't work as well as the new versions... but Corp Ed 7 was not built to detect, for example, rootkits. So even if you have the latest definitions, it can't find what it's not built to detect. It's not a problem of working well or not, it's the scope that's different.
Mar 11, 2008 at 12:46 UTC
EndPoint 11 is AWFUL. We have been a Symantec house for years, but I will not let this peice of software anywhere near my network
This discussion has been inactive for over a year.
You may get a better answer to your question by starting a new discussion.

Stephanie McCrummen
Washington Post Foreign Service
Thursday, October 30, 2008 1:15 PM
Washington Post foreign correspondent Stephanie McCrummen was online from Goma, Congo Thursday Oct. 30 at 1:15 p.m. ET to discuss the escalation of the conflict in the eastern part of the country.
Over the past decade, two civil wars and fighting among militia groups have left millions dead in strife rooted in the unresolved aftermath of the 1994 Rwandan genocide. On Wednesday, the tensions threatened to flare into yet another war, despite the presence of 17,000 U.N. peacekeepers in the region.
A transcript follows.
Stephanie McCrummen: Hello from Goma in the rolling green hills of Eastern Congo, where things are relatively quiet after a chaotic day yesterday. Rebels led by renegade general Laurent Nkunda, who has close ties to neighboring Rwanda, are at the gates of this important provincial town. The Congolese army has essentially disintegrated, and spent the night looting and harassing people here. So there is a lot of uncertainty about happens next in this region that has suffered through two civil wars and years of militia fighting tied to the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Ready to take any questions.
Arlington, Va.: What is the chance that this unrest spreads into neighboring countries?
Stephanie McCrummen: Unlikely that it would spread to other countries, but possible that other countries--Angola, Uganda, Rwanda-- would join in the battle for Eastern Congo's riches, as they have before in what became known as Africa's World War. But that is a kind of doomsday scenario at this point.
Washington, D.C.: What do you think the long-term effects will be with this conflict?
Stephanie McCrummen: I think the one key question at the moment is how the advance of these rebels so closely tied to Rwanda will affect the relationship between Rwanda and Congo over the long term. The two countries have had a testy relationship, mostly because of the presence of the Hutu militias who fled into Eastern Congo after the 1994 Rwandan genocide. The Congolese government has repeatedly failed to disarm them, and this has remained a sore point with Rwanda. There is once again an opportunity to resolve this issue once and for all but whether the two countries will--and whether international diplomats exert the necessary pressure for them to do so--remains to be seen.
Bethesda, Md.: Is this civil war due in part to the countries location next to Sudan and other war stricken countries?
Stephanie McCrummen: It's complicated, but yes, the conflict is very much tied to the aftermath of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, when Hutu militias massacred more than 800,000 ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus. The Hutu militias fled from Rwanda into Eastern Congo, and have remained there, and more recently joined forces, more or less, with the Congolese army. This has obviously created tensions with Rwanda, and led to the rise of the rebel group led by Laurent Nkunda, a Tutsi, who says he is protecting his people.
Boston, Ma.: Stephanie, I heard that the rebels had overtaken park rangers in charge of protecting Congo's gorilla habitat. This had been seen as a potential tourist attraction. Has there been any word of poaching of gorillas in the area or murder of any rangers. Thank you.
Stephanie McCrummen: That's true. I haven't heard yet of any poaching, but the situation has been so chaotic that it's been impossible for anyone to get in there to assess things. The rangers fled in all directions; someone who works with them said some walked for three days straight through the forests of the park before they finally arrived here in Goma.
New York, N.Y.: Do you think this is going to be a relapse of Rwanda? Are U.N. peacekeepers really doing anything to help?
Stephanie McCrummen: I don't think it will be a relapse of Rwanda at this point, though there are strong anti-Rwanda--and specifically, anti-Tutsi--feelings in Eastern Congo. This has to do with Rwandan invasions in the past, and of course the presence of the rebel leader Laurent Nkunda, who is Tutsi and viewed as a Rwandan proxy. Those anti-Tutsi feelings have occasionally exploded into violence and massacres over the years. Someone told me today that gangs of young men were out last night "hunting Tutsis" but at this point, I think most people feel victimized--regardless of ethnicity--and are just exhausted and want the fighting to end.
Brooklyn N.Y.: Why you think Nkunda is not taking Goma? That seems easy at this Point.
Stephanie McCrummen: That's a good question. I don't really know why, but he probably thinks it won't score him any negotiating points right now, whereas staying outside and saying he's trying to spare civilians, allow a humanitarian corridor, etc, makes him look magnanimous.
Washington, D.C.: How are you holding up? I am concerned with your safety. In the report is says relief workers and Americans are fleeing the area, what are you still doing there?
Stephanie McCrummen: Thanks. I'm perfectly fine, and so are the other journalists here. I was out all day today reporting and there doesn't seem to be much hostility towards journalists, per se, except in the sense that some people see journalists as symbols of a world they feel doesn't care about them. Some of the NGOs have become targets though--they've had their trucks stolen and looted.
Washington, D.C.: What's your Internet connection like?
And, with this constant conflict, how are the armed groups and the companies operating in the region transporting minerals? As a follow, how prevalent are the hired guns brought in by mineral companies to protect their interests? Are they playing a role in the conflict?
Stephanie McCrummen: The internet is horrible here. I'm borrowing another journalist's BGAN at the moment, which is like a little satellite dish. Regarding the mineral trade, I certainly don't see much in the way of commercial traffic around here at the moment. But in general, militias get paid by mineral traders to guard the mines, and the profits from that business certainly provide militias in this part of the world a reason to fight on: it's a job that pays, and for the leaders, probably very well.
Washington, D.C.: What is Nkunda's ultimate aim?
Stephanie McCrummen: I think he probably wants legitimacy--to have some sort of legitimate political role where he can have administrative control over some slice of Eastern Congo. This would also be in Rwanda's interest. But I'm sure there's some psychological dimension as well.
Thanks for the questions!

SEC makes Nashville primary site for men's tourney
Credit: The Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Southeastern Conference fans wanted the league to hold its men's tournaments in a basketball arena, and now they're getting their wish.
Commissioner Mike Slive announced Tuesday that the SEC has made Nashville its primary home for the men's tournament with the league holding nine of its championships in Music City through 2026. There will also be three women's conference tournaments held in Nashville during that time.
