My daughter attends Cornerstone Christian Academy, she has been in the Gifted program since first grade, she's now in the 7th grade @ CMS and still in the Gifted program. I truly recommend this school for anyone who wants their child to be well educated far ahead of their peers. Great christian enviroment. Thank you Cornerstone Christian Academy jdhoward, a parent
Our daughter attends Cornerstone Christian Academy. She has been a student there for four years. Of all the schools we've researched, Cornerstone has a very high standard of education (Stanford Test results to prove it!) In addition, developing skills in physical education, music, art and computer are encouraged and enjoyed by all students. The teachers work closely with each student. Not one student is left behind at Cornerstone. The teachers are diligent, caring, and above all, 'certified'. We are delighted and inspired by the christian enviroment. Our prayers have been answered with 'Cornerstone Christian Academy'. Don't compromise your child's education. Mr. & Mrs. S. Cochran
My child has been attending Cornerstone Christian Academy since August 2004. This school so far has provided my child with an excellent education, well above public school standards. This school has also enriched my child with high moral values and beliefs, which will be a lifelong reward for her. I truly recommend this school for anyone who wants their child to be well educated far ahead of their peers, as well as provide them with the fundamental teachings of Christian morals and values.

Santa Monica Bay State Beaches:
Redondo, Manhattan, Dockweiler, Santa Monica
Santa Monica Bay Trail
20 miles one way
Fringed by palm trees, with the Santa Monica Mountains as dramatic backdrop, the wide sandy beaches along Santa Monica Bay draw visitors from around the world. Locals tend to get a bit blasé about this beauty in their backyard, and often fail to take advantage of what is, in my opinion, one of the world's great beach walks.
Favorite bay walks enjoyed by tourists include Venice Beach and the Venice Boardwalk, the Santa Monica Pier and Palisades Park in Santa Monica. The long and quite wide state beaches—Redondo, Manhattan, Dockweiler and Santa Monica—are interspersed with a number of municipal beaches and lagoons. For a really ambitious beach walk or weekend hiking holiday, I'd suggest a walk around the entire bay.
Such a walk will surely be a very long day—or a weekend-to remember. You'll get a real feel for the bay, not only as a collection of beaches and seashore sights, but as a living, dynamic ecosystem whose health and wellbeing depends heavily on government and citizen action.
Geographically, Santa Monica Bay is a mellow intrusion by the Pacific Ocean into the western edge of the Los Angeles lowlands. The bay's magnificent curving beaches are cooled by a prevailing ocean breeze, which protects the coast from the temperature extremes—and smog—that are characteristic of the interior.
Alas, all views along Santa Monica Bay are not picture-perfect; huge smokestacks from power plants tower over some South Bay beaches, while jets departing LAX fly low and loud over others. And the bay has its share of well-documented environmental problems, too. Sewers and storm drains empty into the bay. Organizations such as Heal the Bay have undertaken the Herculean task of educating the public and public officials that the bay is not merely a series of sand strands, but a complex ecosystem.
Pick a brisk fall or winter weekend to walk the bay and you'll be surprised at how much shoreline solitude you'll enjoy. It's possible to walk the bay from Torrance to the Santa Monica Pier in a very long day, but the 20 mile beach hike is more comfortably completed in two days.
If bay walking agrees with you, consider walking the rest of the bay-another 20 miles from the Santa Monica Pier to Pt. Dume.
You can arrange a car shuttle or use the bus system to return to your day's start point. Better yet, leave a bicycle at the end of your walk and cycle back to the trailhead along the South Bay Bicycle Path. Super-jocks will relish the challenge of what I call the Triathlon Trail: Walk the 20 miles from Torrance County Beach to the Santa Monica Pier, cycle the South Bay Bicycle Path, then take a long refreshing swim.

Design for all 5 senses

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"loved this idea. We put these stickers on little mason jars with pink covered chocolate inside and it look beautiful for her Bridal shower..."
"They turned out perfect in black with gold writing & dots. Exactly what I was hoping for. We changed the font to make it the sticker on our welcome bags. Slightly smaller than I was hoping, but that is my own fault for not measuring it out first."
"I actually ordered the product in the colors shown, since my daughter's theme is black and gold. My plan is to put them on clear cello bags to be used as party favors and to set up a candy bar and let the guests fill their own bags. They arrived much quicker then expected."
"This font style and color was just what I wanted. Would have absolutely LOVED if it was offered in a card stock tag version but I easily purchased blank white hang tags and placed these on them. I am giving the extras to the bride."
"These labels perfectly fit my vision for adorning little bottles of limoncello, however I could see so many other uses! They are a great size for adding a monogram to any aspect of your wedding décor and favors."

Matt McGloin continued to climb the career passing charts with two more passing touchdowns versus the Buckeyes to move his career total to 38. His career-high 327 passing yards marked the fourth time in his career he hit the 300-yard mark, tying him with Kerry Collins for the most in school history. Allen Robinson broke the school record for catches in a single season by a sophomore, hauling in five passes versus OSU to push his season total to 52. He sits just 11 grabs away from the single season school record held by O.J. McDuffie (1992) and Bobby Engram (1995).

Photo Booth power user features
You may have forgotten about Photo Booth, but Apple sure hasn't. In Lion, Apple updated its software for quickly capturing photos from your Mac's built in camera, adding full-screen mode and new visual effects that leverage face-detection features. But while Photo Booth's feature set is still pretty simple, there are a few power user tricks to the software that may help you get more out of it.
First of all, there's the flash. When you snap a photo with Photo Booth, the software briefly makes your Mac's display go bright white, to simulate camera lighting. But there's a new option in Lion to disable that flash permanently: Go to the Camera menu, and deselect Enable Screen Flash.Read more »

For those of you who know me well, I am a foursquare machine. I check-in just about wherever I go. In fact, I'll be the first to admit that I often volunteer to run to the store or restaurant to pick up things for others because it will allow me to gain an extra check-in or two. So, call me crazy! But, one thing is for sure; foursquare can help you get fit, so I recommend that you give it a try.
Here's my reasoning…
The Gym Rat Badge!
Foursquare has something called badges, and these badges are available for users to earn. Often, it is exciting to gain a new badge, especially when they are not easy to earn. Foursquare offers a badge called the Gym Rat Badge, and it is given to a person when he or she checks in at one gym at least 10 times in any 30 day period. Of course, only one check-in per day will count, so that means that you have to get to the gym more often to earn this coveted fitness-focused badge. I have heard that they will be converting the gym rat badge into an expertise badge, wherein people who've already earned the badge can level up when they continue to check-in at different gyms. Also, from time to time, foursquare's partners will offer a badge that is fitness-focused.
Mayorship Motivates You To Check-in At Gym
For the person who checks into a venue the most over a revolving 60 day period, he or she is declared the mayor of that venue. For more popular venues with many check-ins, this becomes quite a challenge… a competition between fellow foursquare users! If you check-in at the gym, there is that pride involved in your results. Of course, you have to put the time in, even on those days when you lack the motivation. With foursquare, I find that I can peel myself off of the couch much easier because I know that I am either aiming to regain the mayorship at my gym or sustain the title of mayorship. My goal is to be the mayor, but I can only honestly do that if I keep going to the gym.
Check-in Today!
So, what are you waiting for? Give foursquare a try, and use it to help motivate you to get your gym workouts in more frequently! Before long, you'll be reaching your fitness goals!

Dr. Kerry Sherin Wright, director of the Alumni Writers House at Franklin & Marshall College, spoke at PCA&D's 31st annual commencement ceremony held on May 4.
Dr. Wright speaks at the podium while PCA&D President Mary Colleen Heil listens.
She spoke of her college days when she hung with Steve Jobs (yes, that Steve Jobs), and shared anecdotes and advice for the Class of 2013. Wright urged them to "learn your craft; exercise your power." In fact, she reflected, artists whom she has known "...transformed the lives of the people who encountered them."
Wright also got the audience involved: everyone received card stock on which to write a six-word memoir about themselves. After the ceremony, many family members came up to Wright to share their six words. Wright laughed and shook her head knowingly as she read the personal, funny, and authentic "memoirs."
PCA&D Trustees joined college administrators for the 31st commencement. Pictured from l. to r. are Trustee Randy Patterson, Academic Dean Marc Torick, Trustee Judy Ware, Trustee and Chairman of the Board Robert Macina, speaker Dr. Kerry Wright, Trustee Susan Traverso, President Mary Colleen Heil, Dean of Students Pam Richardson, and Trustee Mark Korman.
One of PCA&D's unique traditions at graduation is when the seniors, who are now officially alumni, turn to the audience -- their family members -- and give them a round of applause to signify "thanks" for making their education possible.
One of the lighter moments during graduation happened when Heather Moore's grandmother exclaimed "That's my granddaugher!" in a tone loud enough to be heard on stage. Shown above are Trustee Robert Macina and Heather reacting to the humorous remark. PCA&D President Heil is also seen behind Macina.

White Paper Download
The reinsurance industry faces an unprecedented number of challenges. The frequency and severity of man-made and natural catastrophes are increasing. In addition, reinsurers are faced with new regulatory issues (e.g., Solvency II), a continuing global soft market and legacy issues, such as exposure to mold and asbestos claims. To combat these challenges, reinsurers are turning to technology for catastrophe modeling, data analytics and geographic information systems (GIS) to better understand the data and their risk exposure. This white paper will explain how reinsurers can gain a competitive advantage by using data management and analytics.

Touted as America's first glasses-free 3D-capable 4G device, the HTC EVO 3D features a 4.3-inch, qHD (Quarter High Definition) 3D display as well as dual rear-facing cameras, that can capture 3D images and video.
Even if you're not interested in this phone's 3D capabilities though, its specs and horsepower may still be attractive. The EVO 3D runs Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) and features a dual-core, 1.2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 4G connectivity capabilities, 4GB of internal memory, and 1GB of RAM. With the combination of a dual-core mobile processor, a high-res screen, and 1GB of RAM, this phone has the power, speed and good looks that are demanded of high-end smartphones today...
HTC EVO 3D Smartphone Review
Via: HotHardware | News Archive | Tags: Cell Phone, Android, smartphone, Google, Sprint, WiMAX, HTC, wireless, Cellphone, 4G, fourth generation, evo 3d
I would like to add that not just some, but every piece of bloat ware but Sprint ID can be uninstalled. Since it is a Sprint phone, you would want to keep Sprint ID installed anyway since it lets you review and control your phone account. Why isn't this a "Hot"?
Reading this review makes me realize how pathetic my Samsung Captivate is.
I was surprised how much faster 4G was on this new device compared to the EVO 4G. I thought 4G was 4G perhaps they have tapped into some more bandwidth with these new phones. The only con I see with this phone is that weight. You will feel notice lugging this around in your pocket or purse.
At any rate this was a great enjoyable review Jennifer.
When you guys ran the battery tests, did you have 4G enabled?
My fiance get's pretty terrible battery life with hers lol but she leaves EVERYTHING enabled all day. I showed her how to turn stuff off, but she just leaves it all on anyway lol
acarzt - I did not have 4G enabled while I was running the battery test.
InfinityzeN1 - it probably should be a HOT - definitely a really good move from Sprint & HTC in my opinion. However, there are a few apps that I wasn't able to uninstall (Amazon MP3, etc).
Sounds as if she has a tech guy to keep all of her stuff running,........
Would be interested to see how the battery life is after rooting and installing SetCPU to under/overclock.
That is a very powerful phone and even though the 3D doesn't captivate me, if I had not upgraded my phone earlier this year I would have considered this if the price was right. Solid review and easy to read benchmarks as always.
My god, that is powerful as hell... It actually make me want to have it in my hands.
Even though I love 3D to the death, I don't know if it'll hold up on a phone. That blurry 3D comment is making me doubt if I'll ever consider using the 3D function on their phone.
Anyways, they're right when they say that Sprint and HTC have a winner on their hands.
I have used the HTC 3D since its release by Sprint. I have been a smartphone user with Sprint since the late 90's. The HTC 3D is my first Android phone. I use it as my mobile office. I work in the area of managemennt consulting and technology evaluation.
The features and power of the HTC 3D are superior. I had little use for te 3D, having bought the device for its CPU/ROM/RAM/SD capacities. The device and software worked flawlessly, until the hardward would start to fault.
I have now sent off for my fourth replacement handset for this model. Most of the faults related to the touchscreen, but other faults included cracked cases and failing power/data port.
I will replace this device with the HTC One when availa, giving HTC one more chance. If not sufficient, I'll switch to the latest Samsung powerhouse.

Don't Bet On a Casino REIT
Reuben is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Penn National Gaming (NASDAQ: PENN) shares shot up after it announced plans to split itself into a gaming company and a real estate investment trust (REIT). This follows on the heels of a number of other companies announcing or making similar shifts. While it makes sense for some companies, it is probably best for investors to avoid Penn National's "casino REIT" when, and if, it comes along.
Penn National
Penn National owns and operates gaming and horse racing facilities in Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, West Virginia, and Ontario. Its focus is on slot machines, owning over 36,000 of them, though it also has over 800 game tables and nearly 3,000 hotel rooms.
There is no doubt that the company's physical properties have material value. In fact, many are in areas where building new casinos would be virtually impossible because of space constraints or legal and regulatory issues. It is interesting that the company would seek to unlock the value of its property by spinning them off to shareholders in a REIT. Penn will remain the casino operator, but not the casino owner. This is the first casino operator to consider such a spin off, so it is likely to face particular scrutiny from regulators. That said, investors sure seemed to like the announcement.
Not The First Company To Do This
Although Penn is the first casino to make or announce such a business shift, it is hardly the first company to make use of the REIT structure in this way. For example, Gaylord Entertainment recently became Ryman Hospitality Properties (NYSE: RHP). Essentially, Ryman lets Marriott International handle the day to day operations of its group-oriented resort hotels, while it just sits back and collects the rent. After struggling for years trying to turn its conference center business around, time will tell if the move to a REIT makes sense.
Other companies in the process of, or that have already made, a similar REIT shift include Lamar (NASDAQ: LAMR), Iron Mountain (NYSE: IRM), and American Tower (NYSE: AMT). Lamar is in the billboard advertising space, Iron Mountain owns document storage facilities, and American Tower owns cell towers. All interesting shifts that seem to make sense.
An Industry Shift?
Not too long ago, REIT conversions "swept" though the paper industry. Companies with massive land holdings which provided the primary input (trees) for their paper operations realized that converting to or spinning off lumber REITs would be a good way to enhance shareholder value. Companies making this change included Potlach, Rayonier, and Weyerhaeuser. They all joined Plum Creek as lumber REITs. One could easily understand a similar move in the billboard, document storage, and cell tower industries, as companies look to enhance shareholder value and avoid the double taxation of dividends.
The big difference between a timber REIT (and the other REITs noted above) and a casino REIT, however, is growth potential. And this is why you should avoid the first casino REIT. Indeed, there is plenty of timber land (billboards, document storage facilities, and cell towers) available, but casino properties are harder to come by. Moreover, as noted above, casinos can be very difficult to build because of the stigma and legal issues surrounding these properties. Thus, a casino REIT will likely have a hard time expanding its portfolio. If a slow to no-growth REIT is what you are looking for, then maybe a casino REIT is the answer for you. But I doubt it.
A Bigger Concern For The REIT Industry
My concern with the Penn REIT idea isn't for its shareholders, however; it is for the entire REIT structure. With tax issues taking center stage, more and more scrutiny has been placed on so-called tax loopholes. For example, there is a great deal of concern about the carried interest loophole and how shutting that one loophole might impact financially focused limited partnerships (LP). That said, the concern has actually engulfed the entire LP industry.
Limited partnerships are pass-through entities that have a tax advantaged corporate structure. REITs are such entities, and if there is a perception that the REIT structure is being abused, the entire industry could wind up loosing its tax advantage and get taxed at the corporate level. Lumber REITs make sense, billboard REITs make sense, cell tower REITs make sense. Casino REITs are a much harder sell and could actually result in the other conversions being re-examined with a more critical eye, giving additional ammunition to those who might seek to close a perceived tax loop hole.
I think investors should avoid the casino REIT and hope Penn's move doesn't damage an important industry for investors seeking to gain access to investment properties.

Martin Contreras, left, and Keith Orr celebrate after getting married at the Washtenaw County Building in Ann Arbor Saturday. (Mark Bialek / Special to The Detroit News)
Your local county clerk is most often seen as a bureaucrat � a keeper of records, vital statistics and precise office hours. But on Saturday, four county clerks in Michigan went a little bit rogue.
Clerks in Washtenaw, Oakland, Ingham, and Muskegon counties seized the moment on � gasp � a weekend. In three counties, they flung open the doors on Saturday morning to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples before a federal appeals court stopped the music that afternoon.
Muskegon County Clerk Nancy A. Waters took a batch of forms with her and issued marriage licenses at a nearby church, without opening the courthouse or paying staff.
No one had prepared for county clerk office hours on Saturday. These are offices that run 8:30 to 4:30, or 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
When U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman issued his 5:06 p.m. Friday ruling that the state�s gay marriage ban violates the U.S. Constitution, 79 county clerks likely thought the way Wayne County Clerk Cathy Garrett did: �We were ready to rock and roll today (Monday) but we operated the normal way we do in this office. We are closed on Saturday.�
In Washtenaw County, the political pressure was clear � to open the doors. Once county Clerk Lawrence Kestenbaum realized the county commission and administrator would help with issues of security and cost, he moved ahead. �At that point, the issue became how could we not open?�
�It�s going to rank up there as one of the best days of my life,� Oakland County Clerk Lisa Brown said Monday. She opened the clerk�s office Saturday morning for four hours of marriage licensing and officiating, personally presiding over 80 same-sex weddings, with a crew of volunteers and staff.
Brown had taken a special interest in the case, because she, as county clerk, was named as a defendant by plaintiffs Jayne Rowse and April DeBoer.
She refused to take the state�s side of the case, hired her own attorney and testified that in her belief the law discriminated against gays and lesbians.
All four clerks who issued licenses are Democrats, and their stance highlighted the political underpinnings of their position. The county clerk wields power and the office can be a stepping stone to higher political careers. U.S. State Rep. Candice Miller, Secretary of State Ruth Johnson and former Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land all served as county clerks.
But rarely does a county clerk have the opportunity to so visibly exercise official discretion and a sense of historical import at the same time.
�I don�t fault the counties that didn�t open,� Kestenbaum said. �Not many are nimble enough to call up employees and ask them to come in.� He got four out of eight staff members, who received comp time for their service. In Oakland, Brown said the county made money, taking in more from fees than the cost of staff.
These four county clerks changed official office hours. They improvised. Their reach and determination in those few hours changed hundreds of lives, likely forever.

The Incarnation was formed in the autumn of 2004 under the name Dead by Dawn www.myspace.com/dbdgbgsweden and during the following four years Dead by Dawn developed from a rock n' roll band with death and thrash metal influences into a band that played their own unique brand of death metal. In this time-period the band played numerous gigs in the Gothenburg area, recorded a video for the song SHACKLED, and released several demos up until the summer of 2009 when they felt that it was time for a change. This is when The Incarnation was born…
The Incarnation exists for one reason and that is to play raw and relentless Death Metal. Death Metal influenced by bands such as Morbid Angel, Deicide, Slayer, Possessed, Autopsy, Repulsion, Entombed and Bloodbath just to name a few.
Where does The Incarnation stand today? Well, they´ve just released their debut EP Possessed by the Bizarre on the independent label Dead Tree Music and are planning to spend the better part of 2011 playing live up until the beginning of 2012 when it's time to record their first full length album.
So keep a sharp eye on the agenda of your town's metal club! The Incarnation will be there soon and if you find the sound of the band crushing on record it is nothing compared to experiencing this raw death metal trio live!

Following is a listing of the specific technology solutions deployed as part of the enterprise EDMS. Additional and alternative solutions are being continually evaluated for possible inclusion into our EDMS toolbox. Some of the technologies listed have been purchased but not yet deployed. Others are on the EDMS wish list with additional purchases likely to take place in the future. EDMS technologies within ND include:
IBM's FileNet Content Manager is the core of IBM's Enterprise Content Management Products. It is used for storage of documents, images and other objects for later retrieval. Information stored in the system is accessible via indexes or by full-text search (if enabled). Security for objects stored in the repository is applied at the system and object level. The FileNet Content Manager repository is divided into individual object stores. Object stores are further divided into document classes. Object stores and classes are individually configured to meet the specific business needs of the users. Stored digital objects can be viewed using the Java-based Daeja ViewOne Pro viewer or can be opened using the associated business application. Version control is provided via a check out system that allows other users to continue to view documents while they are being revised.
FileNet Workplace is the thin-client interface to the FileNet Enterprise Content Management components. It includes image viewer and annotation tools.
EDMS Users in ND with authorized Active Directory credentials may access the the web-based FileNet Workplace.
IBM's FileNet Business Process Manager manages workflow among people and systems for content and case-based processes. Workflow software can be configured to automate routing, reviews, and approvals and to initiate additional or subsequent business processes. FileNet Business Process Manager helps organizations increase process performance, reduce cycle times, and improve productivity and decision making by addressing the creation, management, and optimization of case-based processes to improve business outcomes.
IBM's FileNet eForms helps in designing, managing, and processing electronic forms for enterprise content management. It offers browser-based thin-client eForms that can be used to add documents into FileNet and trigger workflows.
The FileNet Records Crawler / Content Collector is an enterprise solution for managing documents on a network share. It automatically captures documents as they are placed in a monitored location on the file share and loads them into FileNet.
The Rendition Engine is a software server responsible for transforming documents into another format, such as PDF and HTML. This technology allows an agency to publish documents stored in FileNet to an Intranet or Internet site.
IBM InfoSphere Enterprise Records is an add-on component of the IBM FileNet P8 suite of products. IBM InfoSphere Enterprise Records enables you to create and maintain accurate, secure, and reliable records for both electronic and physical information.
Daeja ViewOne Pro is a java-based applet that allows FileNet users to view content within a browser window. Add-on modules allow users to annotate and redact content.
Cardiff Teleform provides forms recognition and processing software that reads and extracts data from images of paper forms. In addition to its use for forms processing, the state uses TeleForm as an imaging and indexing solution for agencies using FileNet. The software uses forms processing technology in conjunction with a variety of lookup tables containing data pulled from business applications. The capture process uses form recognition to identify documents and forms. After recognition, the system converts imaged information to data using Optical Character Recognition. The resulting values are validated and queried against lookup tables. If a match is found, corresponding values from the lookup tables are returned as additional index values. The process both reduces the amount of manual indexing required as well as improves the quality and consistency of the indexing information. Upon completion of validation and processing, data can be exported to business applications and a record copy of the form stored in the FileNet Content Manager repository.
Cardiff Teleform Auto Merge Publisher provides the ability to merge electronic data onto forms for printing purposes. Agencies are able to pre-populate forms such as surveys and send them out to citizens. When the forms come back in they are easier to process due to the pre-populated data that can be used in the data capture process.
Cardiff Teleform's Web Capture Option provides a web-based image and document capture solution. Provides platform for distributed scanning and indexing using patch codes, bar codes and traditional data entry. Thin client scanning/indexing using concurrent licensing enables a variety of internal and external users to access the capture system. Fully integrated with Cardiff TeleForm allowing remote scanning and local verification of form data.
Stand-alone claim processing system used for processing CMS1500 (HCFA) and UB-92 medical claim forms. Systems currently in use by the Department of Human Services and Workforce Safety and Insurance. Uses forms recognition to automatically identify medical claim forms. Application uses scanners to drop out forms templates leaving the data. After processing the form template is merged back with the form prior to storage in the FileNet system. Data read from the forms is validated using internal and external tables and lookups. DHS data is exported to the MMIS system on a weekly basis.
Cardiff Liquid Office is an electronic forms solution that provides the ability to complete, sign, route, process and store forms electronically. The application is available internally and externally via a secure server. Forms designed in Liquid Office can be accessed via a friendly URL or through the Liquid Office repository. Routing of forms can be configured based on a single destination or can be specified by the user. Forms created in Liquid Office can be published as HTML or PDF forms, depending on the needs of the users. Forms can be electronically signed and dated with selected data elements locked by the signature process.
Graham Process Mapping Software is used to diagram existing and planned business processes. Software enables users to create a detailed chart of the business process complete with time and motion information as well as links and variables found in other processes. Completed business process diagrams can be used as tools for process improvement and automated generation of business procedures using Playscript.
COLD parser for indexing and storing system generated documents into FileNet. Text based print streams are processed using configured templates. The templates automatically parse print streams into individual documents, extracting indexing information, using lookups to retrieve additional indexing information and storing the documents. Overlays can be added as needed and the resulting file rendered and stored as a TIF or PDF.
Desktop tool allowing documents to be electronically printed on the desktop. Tool also provides user with the ability to email documents, capture screen prints from any Windows application, annotate images, and save print files in a variety of image-based formats including TIF and PDF. Clearwater also provides a scanning interface for TWAIN scanners. The tool is integrated with FileNet Content Manager.
Open Scan Software provides an exception remittance processing solution installed in the Department of Human Services, Child Support Division. Open Scan specializes in remittance processing of transactions that contain checks and supporting documentation of mixed sizes. Solution scans checks using check scanners. During the scanning process, the MICR coding is read, the check endorsed, and an audit trail of the transaction added to the back side of the check. Check images are processed using CAR/LAR technology. Supporting documentation is scanned either with the check or by using an integrated document scanner. Remittance lists and check skirts are processed using rope and zone OCR. Repeat submittals are matched against a library of stored templates based on MICR information. Remittal and payment information is validated against information maintained in the FACES application prior to update. Images and files relating to each transaction are bundled into a single tif document and passed to FileNet.
Dataintro's Ultraforms Technology enables a PDF 417 barcode generator to be embedded in a PDF file. The 2D barcode is generated by the form when the form is printed and contains all of the pickup points and associated data required by the application. The modified PDF file can be completed by the standard Adobe Acrobat Reader available on most desktops. The 2D barcode can be scanned with either a handheld scanner or as part of the imaging process. The data can then be associated with the form for processing and subsequent update of the business application and EDMS.
Celartem's Document Express with DjVu creates highly-compressed representations of scanned and electronic documents without compromising image quality or text legibility. It enables efficient distribution of any kind of document while delivering an unprecedented reduction in electronic document storage and bandwidth costs.
Avrio Intellego ConnectX is a fast and flexible content connector application to link and retrieve any form of electronic content stored in FileNet from the individual pages of PeopleSoft Financials and Human Resources.
As always ... you all are the best !!! thanks again for the help.

The center of the city shines only because there are a few workers who will brave any height to keep it that way. There are only about 100 high rise window washers in the Twin Cities area, but four have died since 2007.
IMAGE GALLERY: A Window Washer's World
Julie Jennings' son, Jake, is one of those who died in March of 2009. He was working at the Normandale Lakes Office Park in Bloomington and fell after the line tying him to the building he was cleaning slipped from its anchor. Julie feels that her son should have been better trained. She fears for other window washers who are just starting their careers and doesn't want any other famliy to go through what she has in the last two years. " It is the worst thing in the world. I will never get over it," said Julie.
The other 3 fatal accidents:
Dec. 2007: Fidel Sanchez-Flores fell to his death while cleaning ice from the top of the IDS Crystal Court in Minneapolis.
Sept. 2009: Bryan Prairie, 24, fell from a roof at Methodist Hospital in St. Louis Park.
June 2011: Ryan Shannon, 25, died after falling from Knollwood Place Apartments in St. Louis Park.
"A hundred people and four deaths in four years -- it is an insane number," said Javier Morillo-Alicea, President of SEIU Local 26. "If you applied that to any other industry it would be a scandal."
Minnesota OSHA increased the number of inspections on Oct. 1, 2010 due to the deaths. The checks have turned up potentially deadly hazards including:
Window Washer Safety Culture in Twin Cities
According to the International Window Cleaning Association, Minnesota has had the highest rate of window washing accidents in the United States since 2007.
This fall, the IWCA came to the Twin Cities, hoping to educate fellow washers on safety issues -- but the safety conference was poorly attended. The FOX 9 Investigators called several of the companies that didn't show up. They said they either didn't know about it or were too busy to attend.
When asked about training, several window washers told the FOX 9 Investigators they were either trained for only a short amount of time or just had on-the-job training when they began their careers.
Going Over the Wall
FOX 9 Investigator, Trish Van Pilsum wanted to draw attention to the issue of safety, so she found out what it is like to go over the wall -- the parapet wall that is.
Jeff Scott, owner of Green Window Cleaning in Madison, Wis., agreed to help Trish experience what window washers go through on a daily basis. He did not train her as he would the cleaners that work for him because that would have taken months of lessons and testing. Instead, he prepared her to repel down the side of a 15-story building in Madison with no cleaning duties. No safety measure was spared. She used a bosun's chair, work line and safety line.

8 Fun Finger (and Foot!) Painting Projects
A footprint creates the body of this angle, right down to the sweeping ends of the robes. Wings are full handprints with fingers loosely held together. The added details of glitter paint and the star tinsel complete the image.
Overlapping handprints, fingers mildly splayed, arranged in a hollowed-out circle create this festive piece. Berries are thumbprints.
Flower and Bumblebee
The center of the flower is a palm print, and individual fingers create the petals. The stalk is the side of the hand and the leaves are created by making a fist, and using the same outside part of the hand as the stalks (the side opposite the thumb). The bumblebee was Mom's contribution, to the delight of Grandmom, who got this as a birthday card. Simply paint your thumb yellow with a black strip in the center, press down, and then add some antennae.
Gobble, Gobble
A classic of daycares and preschools everywhere, the turkey is also fairly simple. The thumbprint creates the head, and splayed fingers create the notable tail. Then add feet.
Fall Tree
A footprint makes a sturdy tree trunk. Additional branches can be made by either the side of the hand or, as in this case, individual fingers. Fall trees are the best according to our four-year-old test artist, who says her favorite parts are the thumbprint leaves in different colors. Adapt this idea to an apple tree or a flowering spring tree for variety.

I make biscuits, buns or bread every time I make soup or stew, which is several times a week. Sometimes yeasted, sometimes not. It's just so comforting!
I make drop biscuits, which saves the trouble of rolling and cutting, and means that the biscuits can be done in less time than the soup! Some favorites have been olive oil rosemary biscuits...
Cheddar cornmeal biscuits...
Oatmeal buttermilk pepper biscuits
And I like to make quick breads, too, like honey, rosemary and goat cheese bread...
or zucchini corn bread...
For yeasted buns, I've liked these soft railway buns (isn't that a nice idea? Buns to take on a journey!)
Rosemary buttermilk buns...
I love gougeres, and I've tried many variations on the choux pastry idea that yields soft, comforting dumplings...
choux cornmeal dumplings
Herbed semolina dumplings...
I won't even get started on regular yeasted bread or flatbreads!
I'm sorry, I know I've posted way too many links again, but I forgot one, and it's one of the best things I've made in a while. It's tender buttery rolled up rolls.
Long soft rolls with a cripy crust, that are fun to peel apart and eat in layers. Soooo good!
All that's missing is a good popover recipe.
It's my husband's birthday today, and since we had some leftover cream gravy, I made him biscuits this morning. I'd never made cream biscuits before, but they were fast, easy, and awesome! Nice coincidence that you posted this roundup today! I'll have to try some other new ones stat.
P.S. I used the James Beard recipe found in the Fanny Farmer Cookbook.

You are not alone.
Call your EAP Hotline today at 616/455-6210 or 800/442-0809.
Take your life back.
Learn to cope.
Through Pine Rest's Employee Assistance Program (EAP), employers have access to a variety of services to assist their employees personally and directly, as well as services to assist and train managers and other employees in dealing with difficult employees/co-workers and difficult situations.
New News
Being pregnant and having a newborn baby are often blessed times. But, what about when they are not? What can a new mom or dad do and where can they go for help? Pine Rest has a new program to help new moms and pregnant women who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. Our Mother and Baby Program is a day program that allows women who are pregnant or postpartum to get treatment along with their babies. It is one of only two such specialty programs in all of the United States! The program is a more intensive program when meeting with a therapist 1x a week is not enough.
The program runs Monday through Friday from 9:00am until 3:30pm. While in the program, women are offered group therapy, individual time with a therapist and a psychiatrist, and attend classes on topics such as relationships, coping skills, medication, anger management, relationships, nutrition, body image, bonding with baby, and many more. The program teaches skills to manage scary thoughts, deal with worries and anxieties, and helps plan for continued healing. On average, women receive treatment for 5-7 days.
For more information, visit http://www.pinerest.org/mother-baby-postpartum-depression-treatment. [Please note: While participation in the full program is not covered by your Assistance Benefit, it is often covered by traditional health insurance and there are expert clinicians in the Pine Rest system who have specialty training in Perinatal Mood Disorders and those outpatient visits are covered by your benefit!]
Contracted Services Employees and members of their household can receive confidential, comprehensive services at no cost to them. Their employer contracts with Pine Rest to provide:
All individuals accessing the EAP will speak with a qualified Pine Rest counselor or therapist. Self-referral early in the concern is highly recommended, although an employer can refer an employee.
Non-contracted and Single Use Services In addition to its EAP services; Pine Rest also offers area businesses a variety of non-contracted and single use services. These services can be accessed on a fee-for-service basis as a particular need arises. This includes:
Educational Presentations Businesses can access the many experts on Pine Rest's Speaker's Bureau and arrange for a special informational presentation either on-site or at a location of the business's choosing. Past topics of interest have included family concerns, balancing work and family, stress management, spirituality, and more. Cost varies by presenter.
Critical Incident Response Team (CIRT) Pine Rest can provide a team of mental health professionals to help employees deal with unforeseen traumatic events such as a workplace accident involving the death of a co-worker, suicide of a co-worker, and more. All CIRT members receive specialized training in critical incident stress debriefing, and include doctorate and master's level professionals in the areas of social work, psychology, education, divinity, and nursing. A team normally consisting of two clinicians can be on-site within 24-72 hours of the critical incident, and can help workers deal with the facts, begin to process their feelings, and learn what normal reactions they can expect to experience. Cost is $150/hour/clinician. If you are in need of a CIRT, please call Pine Rest's Contact Center at 616/455.9200.
Psychological Consultation Center (PCC) Pine Rest's experienced PCC psychologists provide testing for workplace violence, ADHD, fitness for duty, substance abuse/addictions assessment, treatment recommendations, case management, and more. Contact the PCC for cost information.
Relevant and Informative On-Line PDF Articles
Businesses and employees can read and download the Today magazine which features a wide range of articles and information on numerous workplace and mental health topics of value. These full articles are a sample of the clinical excellence and compassion found at Pine Rest.

According to Diana Volunteer Fire Department Assistant Chief Justin Hankins, units responded to a mobile home fire on Chimney Hill Drive Monday afternoon.
When fire crews arrived, the house was fully involved. A male who was at home when the fire started has been transported to Longview Regional Medical Center for smoke inhalation. His dog did not make it out of the house.
Hankins said the home is still standing but is considered a total loss. The blaze is believed to have started as a grease fire in the kitchen.
Diana, Ore City and Glenwood Volunteer Fire Departments responded to the scene.
Chimney Hill Drive is located just off of Highway 154 around three miles west of Diana in Upshur County.

Quaffing Ale With J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis in Oxford, England
Welcome to the spot where The Lord of the Rings and the Chronicles of Narnia were born. While on faculty at Oxford, J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis met at what they affectionately called "The Bird and Baby" and invented a new genre of popular literature over pints of ale. Their photos are on the wall of the Rabbit Room where you can sit at the very table they did.The Eagle and Child was ancient before these two literary giants graced the halls of Oxford. It has been a public house since 1650 and still has the low beam ceilings and mullioned windows of that era. Today it is still a favorite spot for faculty, students, and fans of Tolkien and Lewis. Oxford views tourists as a pestilence, and you will find that attitude here. Service is sometimes slow and surly. But to be fair the constant inundation of gawking fans must be tedious.

(–)-Galanthamine (also known as galantamine) is an alkaloid that was isolated in 1952 by N. Proskurnina and A. Yakovleva from the Caucasian snowdrop (Galanthus woronowii). It is also produced in other flowering plant genera such as Narcissus. It is a cholinesterase inhibitor that is used to treat Alzheimer's disease and other cognitive diseases. A new synthesis of galanthamine was developed last year by P. Magnus and co-workers.

The University realizes the importance of providing employees with opportunities to obtain assistance for a variety of personal issues which my affect their continued functioning as productive members of the University Community.
Employees who are experiencing personal problems can initially meet with a counselor in the Counseling office. However, it is important to note that the Counseling office does not function as a Mental Health Facility. Counselors can offer information on providers, organizations, or services outside of the University. As another alternative, employees are also encouraged to use the Employee Assistance Program (EAP). The University has the EAP through our long-term disability insurance carrier. The Human Resources office can provide employees with information on EAP services.
Career Counseling is available through the Insalaco Center for Career Development. Since the primary responsibility of this office is to the students, there may be times that they are unavailable to employees.
An employee may contact the offices noted above with full assurance of confidentiality.Revised 02/01/2005

Kate Middleton Shows Off Growing Baby Bump In Post-Babymoon Appearance
Kate Middleton made her first public appearance since returning from her Caribbean babymoon on Tuesday.
The 31-year-old royal stepped out at Hope House in London, where she sported a MaxMara Studio dress.
"It's lovely to be here," she told the crowd, according to People.
The Duchess spent time visiting with women recovering from addiction, some of whom asked her about her upcoming pregnancy.
"I asked her if she was nervous about having a child, and she said it would unnatural if she wasn't. It's just human, isn't it?" Lisa, mother of three told The Observer (via People).
Another woman, Natalie – who is also expecting – reportedly spoke with Kate about the complications she's had with her pregnancy.
"She was saying she had been feeling unwell but was feeling better now," the expecting mom said.

It is with great sadness that the literary world
learned that Barbara Mertz, perhaps better known by her pen names Elizabeth
Peters and Barbara Michaels, passed away on August 8, 2013, at the age of
85. She earned a Ph.D. in Egyptology from the University of Chicago in
1952, when it was rare for a woman to pursue such careers. Her expertise
was much in evidence in the nineteen volumes of the greatly-beloved Amelia
Peabody mystery series. The series followed the adventures of this intrepid
adventuress during the closing decades of 19th century and into
the first decades of 20th century Egypt. The series was
unfailingly witty, erudite and just plain fun. Perhaps Washington Post
writer Sarah Booth Conroy best summed up the magic of her fiction when she
observed that Mertz's fiction was "the literary equivalent of multiple
gin-and-tonics." They were to be read "…in times of self-indulgence,
physical pain or mental anguish because they come with the guarantee that
the evil will be punished, the good will be rewarded, pleasingly plump women
will seduce brilliant men with bulging muscles and all will be set right in
the world."1
She also wrote more than two dozen mystery/romance
novels under the pseudonym Barbara Michaels, six novels in the Vicky Bliss,
art historian series, as Elizabeth Peters, and several scholarly works under
her own name.
She will be greatly missed, and to help remind us of
the great fun it was to read the latest Peabody adventure, we've posted
links to earlier reviews from the series.,

In Reus, you control powerful giants that help you shape the planet to your will. You can create mountains and oceans, forests and more. Enrich your planet with plants, minerals and animal life.

Samuel Fuller's films have been embraced for their frank presentation, personality, and pointed political aspirations. Often working in lower budget, near exploitative circles, Fuller churned out films that were provocative, campy, occasionally hilarious, and starkly framed, both in subject matter and his usual attention to violence. He was a filmmaker capable of crafting cinema that went on to attain critical appreciation while also appealing to audiences interested in the inherently lurid.
A movie that has the crew conflicted.
This week we discuss alchemy, camera technology, a first time guest host joins the show, and we review "As Above, So Below".
