West Valley City » After a long, hot day when even the beer in the cans and bottles at the tailgating parties become frustratingly warm, Kenny Chesney turned up at Usana Amphitheatre on Thursday to bring the beach cooler.
You might quibble that year after year, Chesney's act seems consistently predictable. But he has become the heir to the position of beach vibe shaman that once was held by Jimmy Buffett, now that is seems that Buffett no longer wants to mingle with Utahns. Some might say that the Zac Brown Band seems more kin to Buffett's spirit of hammock rock.

But only Chesney is able to make a concert such a transporting experience that you can almost smell the salt in the air. It's an atmosphere that not only condones beach balls in the crowd, but demands it.
No audience like Chesney's comes to the venue early in the day to get lubricated with shots before chasing down the night with music that is fun and unoffensive. You don't have to think too hard, which is good, since a steady stream of alcohol that day has killed many a brain cell.
With a straw cowboy hat, maroon tank-top, tight blue jeans and a deep tan from a sun that somehow hasn't turned his face into leather, the 45-year-old singer-songwriter delivered songs revolving around his favorite subjects: island girls, sand between his toes and, of course, alcohol. The tour is called the "No Shoes Nation Tour" — a reference to his signature song "No Shirt, No Shoes, No Problem" — but judging from the soused crowd that filled up the amphitheater's lawn and long beer lines, the tour might more appropriately be called the No Sobriety Nation Tour. It is not an accident that the two main sponsors of the tour are Corona Light and Blue Chair Bay Premium Rum.
Chesney's eight-piece backing band including six guitars (!) opened flashily with his anthem "Feel Like a Rockstar," but it wasn't until the third number of the night, "Beer in Mexico," that the stage's hi-res screens started beaming images of girls in bikinis diving into crystal clear waters, which continued throughout the night. (No complaints here.) The stage's large screens and phalanx of lights were impressive but not especially memorable, since Chesney himself is an energetic, sweat-soaked and magnetic frontman, eliciting squeals from women with pink cowboy hats.
The frenetic pace of the first half of the show didn't last throughout, with forgettable songs such as "Anything Like Mine" and "Never Wanted Nothing More" lacking the kinetic energy of tunes sung earlier in the night, such as "Pirate Flag" and "Summertime." And while Chesney's voice is comforting and distinctive, he doesn't vary his delivery much and isn't given to vocal flights of fancy that create awe. And I would have liked more songs from his new album, "Life on a Rock," where he wrote songs that revealed more of himself than at any other point in his career.
But the sound was clean and clear, as it usually is at the amphitheater, and a Chesney show at an inside venue is unfathomable. He, above everyone else, was made for the open air.
The encore of "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" was an odd choice, since after about 20 songs Chesney had proved that he is no longer someone who pretends to dream of a ranch, like many of his peers. His life is a beach, and he shared some of that with us, although during my car ride home I didn't see any bikini-clad girls in the passenger seat. (Plenty of complaints here.)

Should you feel any shame in giving used designer handbags to your nieces for Christmas?
This post comes from J.D. Roth at partner blog Get Rich Slowly.
The holiday season can test a frugal person's patience: There are so many temptations to spend. Sure, we all want to enjoy the festive nature of this time of year, but where do you draw the line? And how fugal is too frugal?
Michelle wrote with a terrific question. She has the sort of dilemma I can picture myself facing. Here's her story:
Like you, I am a big proponent of thrift store shopping. It saves money, and it's just more fun than going to the mall -- at least for me. Because I live in the New York City area, I'm fortunate in that many of the area thrift stores are filled with fantastic stuff, including designer and name-brand quality clothes, many of which are barely worn.
On a recent thrift store trip, I picked up two designer handbags as Christmas gifts for my college-aged nieces, but now I'm having second thoughts.
On the one hand, there's no way they would ever really acquire Coach and Kate Spade handbags on their own. On the other hand, I don't know if they share my acceptance and love for thrifting, and they may not react well to the thought of being gifted someone else's castoffs.
A survey shows that will be the average monthly income from what Americans in their 50s are saving for retirement.
This post comes from Fred Yager at partner site ConsumerAffairs.com.
It seems as if every financial services company in the world conducts its own retirement survey and each one is more depressing than the last.
The most recent one comes from Wells Fargo, which says that most Americans in their 50s should be prepared to live on $190 a month, because that's all the personal saving they'll have to look forward to.
- Calculator:Are you saving enough?
Now, granted, the survey didn't take into consideration Social Security or possible pensions, which are becoming extremely rare these days.
But the point is clear: Wake up or be prepared to spend your retirement years living in a van down by the river, as the late great comedian Chris Farley used to say.
When you pick the food up yourself, do restaurant workers act as if you're still supposed to tip?
This guest post comes from J. Money atBudgets are Sexy.
How much do you tip for takeout when you pick food up at a restaurant?
We talked a lot about holiday tipping the other week, but I think this question is much more interesting because it affects each and every one of us -- or at least the ones who enjoy splurging on takeout every now and then.
I've heard pros and cons to both sides here, so I'm kind of curious to see what you all think.
Here's the comment that prompted this post (thanks, Linda):
What about tipping for takeout? They seem like they want the full 20% and get angry if they don't get it. How do other people handle this?
Shoppers report longer waits for ordered gifts. How to make sure yours arrive on time.
This Deal of the Daycomes fromKelli B. Grantat partner site SmartMoney.
Every night of Hanukkah, Barbara Adler gave one gift to each of her three sons. Until the last night of the eight-day holiday, when she presented an electronic puzzle game to the trio, "for all of us."
The other gifts, ordered from Amazon.com affiliates, hadn't arrived at their Roslyn, N.Y., home -- even though she'd ordered them some 11 days before.
No one keeps track of real-time complaints like these, but anecdotal evidence suggests that plenty of shoppers are still waiting on holiday gift orders placed weeks ago.
Restaurants are giving bonuses with gift cards, plus coupons for subs, bagels, soup and a deal on pizza.
This seems to be the year for days of deals, as in "The 12 Days of Christmas."
Starbucks' "12 Days of Sharing" ends Saturday, but the "12 Days of Whataburger" goes on through Dec. 22, since it happens only every other day.
Now Chili's has joined the movement, with "Holidaily Specials" through Dec. 24. The special changes every day, but you can see the whole schedule now. This coupon will give you free chips and queso through Dec. 23.
Many restaurants are offering specials on gift cards this year, with the most likely bonus being a free smaller gift card. Miami FL on the Cheap has a list of restaurant gift card bonuses and freebies.
A lot of folks unwittingly -- and repeatedly -- make misguided money decisions based upon well-intentioned beliefs.
This guest post comes from Len Penzo at Len Penzo dot Com.
The other day I was at the gas station and I observed a soccer mom topping off the tank of her bright yellow Hummer.
Thunk. Thunk, thunk, thunk. Thunk. Thunk, thunk. Thunk, thunk, thunk, thunk, thunk.
Oh, brother.
Maybe I am being a bit snooty, but I find that kind of behavior extremely annoying, not to mention just a wee bit ignorant. Don't you?
Readers share unbelievably dense comments about personal finance they've heard. Got any to add?
Talk about your latte factor! Smart Spending message board reader "AmberStorck" was told it would be silly to shell out 30 whole bucks for a coffee machine when you could just buy a cup for $3.50 at Starbucks.
Or how about this one: "I never redeem rewards points. It's just a waste of money."
Or: "I can't ride the bus because I don't know how." (Did this person fail "sitting down" in kindergarten?)
2010 sees home prices sink by $1.7 trillion. Falling taxes deprive communities of crucial services.
This post comes from Marilyn Lewis of MSN Money.
Since housing values started plummeting in 2006, the U.S. housing market has lost almost $9 trillion -- enough to fund 12 Iraq wars. That's the news from researchers at Zillow, the online real estate marketplace.
A big chunk of that loss -- $1.7 trillion -- was shed in 2010 alone.
"That's 63% more than the $1 trillion in value that homes lost last year," The Wall Street Journal points out.

The city of Tracy has announced its intention to study the environmental impacts of the Tracy Hills Specific Plan Amendment Project and is asking for comment from interested people in the community.
William Dean, assistant development and engineering services director for the city, identified several areas that might be impacted by building 1,566 homes, parks, businesses, schools and highway on-and off-ramps at Tracy Hills.
The development is planned to straddle Interstate 580 between Corral Hollow and Hansen roads.
A Notice of Preparation report from the city about the 6,175-acre site details the project's "potential significant impact" on the aesthetics, agricultural resources, biological resources and greenhouse gas emissions of the area.
Dean expected city engineers would complete the full environmental impact report before the end of the year.
Interested parties can offer their comments or concerns to the five members of the city of Tracy Planning Commission when they take up the issue at their regular meeting at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 6, in the council chambers at City Hall, 333 Civic Center Plaza.
• Contact the Tracy Press at 835-3030 or email@example.com.

Holly Springs firefighters revived a family pet trapped during a house fire early Sunday morning.
The alarm came in shortly after midnight at 5041 Sunset Fairways Drive.
The family had escaped the house, but told firefighters their 13-year-old family pet was still inside.
Firefighters began an immediate search and found the dog unconscious in a bedroom closet.
Firefighters and EMS workers revived the dog using an oxygen mask made for animals. The fire department provided a picture of the dog with an oxygen line being used as a leash. They reported the dog was running around when they left the scene.
The fire caused an estimated $200,000 damage and is being blamed on spontaneous combustion of some teak oil-soaked rags left on an enclosed porch.
Fire Chief LeRoy Smith cautioned homeowners to be aware that rags soaked in teak or linseed oil can catch fire on their own in certain conditions.
Smith said oil cloths should not be brought inside. They should be stored in air tight containers, preferably made of metal. If the rags are going to be thrown away, they should either be dried on a clothing line or soaked in water and sealed in a plastic bag.
Smith also reminded homeowners they should have working smoke detectors on each floor.

Healthy babies develop vision, movement, hearing, and other vital functions in part because enzymes clear out fatty protein and other unwanted material that can interfere with growth.
But a baby with Tay-Sachs disease is born without one of those important enzymes, Hexosaminidase A (Hex A). So, as those fatty proteins build up in the brain, they hurt the baby's sight, hearing, movement, and mental development.
A child can only get Tay-Sachs by inheriting it. The genetic trait is relatively common among certain ethnic groups, such as Ashkenazi Jews. Tay-Sachs can be detected before birth, so couples in at-risk ethnic groups who are thinking of having children may want to get a blood test to find out whether their child would be likely to have it.
Each year, about 16 cases of Tay-Sachs are diagnosed in the United States. Although Ashkenazi Jews (Jews of central and eastern European descent) are at the highest risk, it is now also prevalent in non-Jewish populations, including people of French-Canadian/Cajun heritage.
Some people carry the genetic mutation that causes Tay-Sachs, but do not develop the full-blown disease. Among Ashkenazi Jews, 1 in 27 people are carriers; in the general population, 1 in 250 people are.
A child can only have Tay-Sachs disease if both parents are carriers of the gene. When two carriers have a child together, there's a:
Couples who are considering having children — or are already expecting — can get screened for the Tay-Sachs gene with a simple blood test. If both the mother and father carry the Tay-Sachs gene, an obstetrician/gynecologist may refer the couple to a genetic counselor for more information.
Pregnant mothers can have their unborn babies tested for the Hex A deficit that causes Tay-Sachs disease. (If the tests do not detect Hex A, the infant will have Tay-Sachs disease. If the tests do detect Hex A, the infant won't have it.)
Between the 10th and 12th weeks of pregnancy, an expectant mother can get a chorionic villus sampling, or CVS, in which a small sample of the placenta is drawn into a needle or a small tube for analysis.
Between the 15th and 18th weeks of pregnancy, the mother can have an amniocentesis to test for the Tay-Sachs gene. In this test, a needle is inserted into the mother's belly to draw a sample of the amniotic fluid that surrounds the fetus.
Kids are usually tested for Tay-Sachs after having hearing, sight, and movement problems. A doctor can identify the disease with a physical exam and blood tests.
A baby born with Tay-Sachs develops normally in the first 3 to 6 months of life. During the next months — or even years — the baby will progressively lose the ability to see, hear, and move. A red spot will develop in the back of the child's eyes. The child will stop smiling, crawling, turning over, and reaching out for things. By the age of 2, the child may have seizures and become completely disabled. Death usually occurs by the time the child is 5 years old.
In rare forms of the disease, a child may have the Hex A enzyme, but not enough of it to prevent developmental problems. In one of these forms, called Juvenile Hex A Deficiency, those problems may not appear until the child is 2 to 5 years old. The disease progresses more slowly, but death usually occurs by the time the child is 15 years old.
In another, milder form of Tay-Sachs, the disease causes muscle weakness and slurred speech, but sight, hearing, and mental capabilities remain intact.
There is no cure for any form of Tay-Sachs disease. But doctors may be able to help a child with Tay-Sachs cope with the symptoms of the disease by prescribing medication to relieve pain, manage seizures, and control muscle spasticity.
Researchers are studying ways to improve treatment for Tay-Sachs disease and screening methods for the disease.
If your child has been diagnosed with Tay-Sachs or both you and your partner are carriers of the gene, talk to your doctor or a genetic counselor about ongoing research. You also might seek support from a group such as the National Tay-Sachs and Allied Diseases Foundation or the March of Dimes Birth Defects Foundation.

What Do You Listen to While You're in the Kitchen?
Some of us want/need complete silence in the kitchen when we cook, while others use this time to get caught up on all those cooking shows queueing up on the iPod. And of course there's always music. Tell us what's streaming in your ears when you're in the kitchen, and leave us the details in the comments.
27 Comments
I listen to my SO playing Mass Effect 1 or 2. Its violent and loud, but the story line is actually pretty interesting. And with all the rapid fire shots its almost white noise.
I listen to my favorite latin station: el zol! and sometimes even do a bit of dancing in between chopping and stirring :)
Little bit of all of the above, actually. Depends on my mood and which of my three roommates is at home. As long as there's noise, I'm good.
My kitchen companion is CBC Radio 1, something of a cross between NPR and BBC World (or BBC 4). Weeknight dinner preparation usually takes place during the show "As It Happens", an interview show that covers both significant news events and somewhat silly ones too.
The tv is nearby so during dinner time I listen/watch the news or MASH reruns.
When I spend lots of time in the kitchen, like on weekends, my music is playing on random, ranging from Nine Inch Nails to Dave Matthews Band.
it should read "KPFK or other talk radio"!!!
when my husband and I are in the kitchen together, we are usually catching up on the day, discussing, debating, etc :)
when I am cooking alone, I usually listen to Neko Case on my 'pod: http://www.flickr.com/photos/honeysweet-ness/4371700114/
My kitchen faces the tv, so I like to watch an episode of a favorite show while I'm working. I generally do that with all my household stuff.
Depending on the time and my mood, I listen to NPR or music.
In the morning, sometimes I listen to nothing - I'm still waking up and I like the quiet. If I'm alone in the house, usually I like to rock out to something I can sing along to.
the slumdog millionaire soundtrack, ALWAYS the slumdog millionaire soundtrack.
Either my ipod on "shuffle all songs," or Pandora on my Bollywood station.
A lot of musical soundtracks: Little Shop of Horrors, Grease 2 (I know, it's a taste level issue), Moulin Rouge, Jesus Christ Super Star.
Also Paul Simon's Graceland.
catching up on podcasts of This American Life, the Political Gabfest and the Moth....or loud danceable music.
I listen to radio stations on Pandora in hopes of finding new tunes to love. My husband and i have to take turns picking the stations!
rachel @ rachelsrecipebox.blogspot.com
I listen to music, but my husband likes to listen to NPR...this is actually what I am currently listening too
For me I almost always listen to The Avett Brothers, AA Bondy, The Felice Brothers, Ingrid Michaelson, Kate Nash, or Adele. I like stuff that's relatively low-key without being sleepy!
I have a nightly date with the "Stuff You Should Know" podcast and my dishes. I have plenty of back episodes to catch up with and the guys are funny and entertaining enough that I can get through the dreaded dishwashing.
I find that certain recipes go with specific music. Am I the only one who does this?
I mix it up between podcasts (This American Life, NPR) and music.
Mostly I listen to music but sometimes I'll put on one of the episodes of The Shadow that I found. The old commercials are my favorite parts!
Any of the above... depends on the day, the meal and the mood.
Almost always NPR. Unless "The Story" with Dick Gordon is on (it's like an ersatz TAL). I can't stand that show for some reason, it's like nails on a chalkboard and I scramble over myself to get it off the dial and I go find some music instead.
@Michelle of Montreal, I love when our public radio station switches over to CBC stuff and I adore "As It Happens!"
I find myself turning to BBC Radio 4 shows In Our Time and Thinking Aloud. Great for expanding your mind while you cook.
The Splendid Table also makes an appearance on occasion.
Finally, TED Talks on the iPhone and a whole collection of Old Time Radio including Fibber McGee and Molly, Have Gun, Will Travel and several detective shows.
I prop my laptop next to the sink and watch the Daily Show while making dinner or doing the dishes almost every day.
Yesterday, I made bread and listened to my Damien Rice station on Pandora. The relaxing music the peaceful rhythm of kneading was just wonderful.
I've been listening to Fitz and the Tantrums on repeat every since I discovered them through a friend that found them on NPR. Catchy, 60's soul inspired tunes that make me feel like a real housewife, which is fun every once in a while--usually, I'm a pretty non-housewifey kind of broad, but every once in a while, I like to play dress up and make cocktails before dinner. :)

Afrojack has been spinning a remix of Miley Cyrus' chart-conquering "Wrecking Ball" in clubs for months, and while various bootlegs and edits have made their way online, the full seven minute mix has been a closely guarded secret. That is until today (December 4) when the Dutch DJ uploaded it to his SoundCloud.
It goes without saying that this is an absolute monster remix. A pretty piano introduction gives way to furious electro-house beats and a male voice (or digitally altered Miley) shouting "I came in like a!" before the BPM subsides for the serial twerker's sublime vocal. Listen to Afrojack's epic dance overhaul after the jump.
Do you love this remix? Let us know in the comments below.

Publisher Comments:
"Anyone who finds it is finding a jewel. Its themes are profound and universal."
It is the now-classic story of two fathers and two sons and the pressures on all of them to pursue the religion they share in the way that is best suited to each. And as the boys grow into young men, they discover in the other a lost spiritual brother, and a link to an unexplored world that neither had ever considered before. In effect, they exchange places, and find the peace that neither will ever retreat from again....
The story of the friendship that develops between two Jewish boys in New York City.

One day in the fall of 2011, Neil Sheeley, a solar scientist at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D.C., did what he always does — look through the daily images of the sun from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO).
But on this day he saw something he'd never noticed before: a pattern of cells with bright centers and dark boundaries occurring in the sun's atmosphere, the corona. These cells looked somewhat like a cell pattern that occurs on the sun's surface — similar to the bubbles that rise to the top of boiling water — but it was a surprise to find this pattern higher up in the corona, which is normally dominated by bright loops and dark coronal holes.
Sheeley discussed the images with his Naval Research Laboratory colleague Harry Warren, and together they set out to learn more about the cells. Their search included observations from a fleet of NASA spacecraft called the Heliophysics System Observatory that provided separate viewpoints from different places around the sun. They describe the properties of these previously unreported solar features, dubbed "coronal cells," in a paper published online in The Astrophysical Journal on March 20, 2012 that will appear in print on April 10.
The coronal cells occur in areas between coronal holes — colder and less dense areas of the corona seen as dark regions in images — and "filament channels" which mark the boundaries between sections of upward-pointing magnetic fields and downward-pointing ones. Understanding how these cells evolve can provide clues as to the changing magnetic fields at the boundaries of coronal holes and how they affect the steady emission of solar material known as the solar wind streaming from these holes.
"We think the coronal cells look like flames shooting up, like candles on a birthday cake," says Sheeley. "When you see them from the side, they look like flames. When you look at them straight down they look like cells. And we had a great way of checking this out, because we could look at them from the top and from the side at the same time using observations from SDO, STEREO-A, and STEREO-B."
When the cells were discovered in the fall of 2011, the SDO and the two STEREO (short for Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory) spacecraft each had widely different views of the sun. Thus, as the 27-day solar rotation carried the coronal cells across the face of the sun, they appeared first in STEREO-B data, then in SDO, and finally in STEREO-A, before starting over again in STEREO-B. In addition, when one observatory looked down directly on the cells, another observatory could see them from the side.
The researchers used time-lapse sequences obtained from the three satellites to track these cells around the sun. When an observatory looked down on one of these areas, it showed the cell pattern that Sheeley first noticed. But when the same region was viewed obliquely, it showed plumes leaning off to one side. Taken together, these two-dimensional images reveal the three-dimensional nature of the cells as columns of solar material extending upward through the sun's atmosphere, like giant pillars of gas.
To round out the picture even further, the team turned to other instruments and spacecraft. The original SDO images were from its Atmospheric Imaging Assembly, which takes conventional images of the sun. Another instrument on SDO, the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI), provides magnetic maps of the sun. The scientists superimposed conventional images of the cells with HMI magnetic field images to determine the placement of the coronal cells relative to the complex magnetic fields of the sun's surface.

Apricot Delight
Comment on this recipe
Can use salted crackers if desired.
Dessert is delicious alone, better with non-dairy whipped topping; even better with a small scoop of lite vanilla ice cream.
2 cups flour
1-1/2 cups crushed, unsalted soda crackers
2 cups shredded coconut
1 cup brown sugar
1/3 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 cans apricot pie filling
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix flour, crackers, coconut, sugar and baking powder all together. Add melted butter and mix all combined ingredients thoroughly.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch pan/dish. Place 2/3 of combined ingredients in the pan/dish, pressing down firmly, making a "crust." Pour 2 cans of apricot pie filling onto the "crust," spreading filling evenly over "crust." Cover filling with remaining ingredients. Bake for 30 minutes. Serves 12.

As of Wednesday, April 3, 2013
© Copyright 2014 Albany Herald
AMERICUS, Ga. — The temporary facility that had been operating as Phoebe Sumter Medical Center until a permanent replacement could be built is now in the process of being demolished, officials with Phoebe say.
An F-3 tornado ravaged through Americus on March 1, 2007, with one of the structural casualties being Sumter Regional Hospital — which ultimately had to be demolished. Cogim units, previously used only for military housing, were assembled into a 70,000 square-foot, 70-bed interim medical complex that served as a hospital.
In October 2008, Phoebe Putney Health System responded to a request from the Americus and Sumter County Hospital Authority to be a partner in rebuilding the hospital, which was renamed Phoebe Sumter.
The permanent facility opened to patients in December 2011.
Demolition of the temporary hospital is expected to be finished in the next few weeks. Plans for the site of the temporary hospital, which is owned by the Americus Sumter County Hospital Authority, have not been finalized, Phoebe officials said Wednesday.

BMW M6 Coupe (2012): 30 second review
The M6 coupé is back in Mk 2 form, more chiselled and densely packed with technology than ever. Powered by the magnificent 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 from the M5, it checks in as the quickest and most powerful two-door car BMW has ever made.
We like:
Thunderous performance, grip and poise, mile-melting comfort and refinement.
We don't like:
Disappointing engine note, not as practical as M5, lacks charisma of best rivals.
Should I buy one?
The M6 is undoubtedly a towering achievement that, via the agents of technology and immaculate engineering, combines barely believable performance with tremendously capable handling and, if required, a supple and comfortable ride.
Its strengths are those of its M5 saloon stablemate, as are its weaknesses - a rather uninspiring engine note and a slight aloofness that dulls driver rewards on the road. It looks rather good, though only potential customers will be able to say whether the shape lights their fire to the tune of £20k over an M5.
And it's impossible to ignore that more charismatic rivals such as the Jaguar XKR-S and Maserati GranTurismo Sport present tempting alternatives.

The CTS or Customer Tracking System number is a set of unique numbers associated with your location. To find your CTS number, it is visible on the mailing label of the PaintManager™ CD or Repaint Reporter publication. For assistance in retrieving your CTS number, call your customer service representative.
The Internet Update utility provides an exchange of information that is two-way - PPG will provide new color formulas, product and pricing information to the end user on a routine basis as well as retrieve site data from the shop or Distributor computer. To recognize the level of confidentiality required in this exchange, the signature of the business owner or manager per location of installation is required to confirm consent. To simplify the process, an electronic signature is acceptable.
PPG is continually seeking opportunities to improve color. The information will focus on the color selection and mixing processes in addition to product usage. This data will allow PPG to evaluate itself and provide improvements to our customers to develop better business and paint processes.
No. Only one registration of Internet Update is required per location. The final step of the registration process generates a unique PIN. The PIN coupled with the locations CTS number is all that is needed to download the Internet Update utility.
Yes. Once you register for the Internet Update program, you will no longer receive PaintManager™ CD's in the mail. If you need specific hardware drivers that are typically available on the CD, go to the PaintManager™ Support page—you can download all hardware drivers needed to maintain your software system.
The annual software support fee covers the development and delivery of new PaintManager™ features and functionality—plus the ongoing e-mail, phone, remote and onsite field help needed to ensure our users are fully operational at all times. With the ability to receive monthly program and data updates (12 per year)—our customer service teams will be prepared to interface with our end users on a more frequent basis.
As a special incentive, support fee charges for customers who actively register and participate in the Internet Update program will be reduced from $300 to $100 upon their renewal date. For existing Internet Update customers that took advantage of the program in 2010, support fees will be reduced from $250 to $100. This change will take effect on their next yearly anniversary date.
To access your PaintManager™ subscription renewal dates, log into this website and go to PPG's Online Ordering Services. Go to Subscriptions / Software Maintenance. Distributor locations and collision shops are listed with their PaintManager™ subscriptions and renewal month.
No. The practice of reproducing PPG's color information is a violation of the PaintManager™ software Lease / License Agreement. Any location requiring more frequent color updates and the most up-to-date PaintManager™ functionality should consider establishing a high-speed internet connection to the PaintManager™ computer.
A high-speed internet or "high data access" connection refers to any type of internet connection that is always available and is not a standard dial-up connection. Most cable, DSL, Satellite or Wireless Internet providers offer the most popular methods for achieving fast Internet access.
For the Internet Update utility to function, the computer operating the PaintManager™ software MUST have access to the internet – either directly or via a network. The computer should reside outside the mix room and be contained within a standard cabinet to prevent dirt and other debris from effecting its performance. (see Simple Network Reference Guide)
For assistance with installing Internet Update on a Simple Network Client for the PaintManager™ Report Viewer feature, this guide will walk you through the process steps.
There are several options you can take to protect your computer from viruses and malware while connected to the Internet. Refer to the Recommended PC Security Actions brief for suggested steps to protect your system.
Yes. Keeping the computer powered will allow the update to take place at the designated date and time. That is why it is important to keep the Internet Update utility open, but can be minimized. It is recommended that the user exit the PaintManager™ software at the end of each business day so the updates can run effectively. The computer MUST be ON and running during the update period.
No. The PaintManager™ program MUST NOT be open or running during the information transfer. For the Internet Update utility to function, the computer must be powered on and the Internet Update utility running but minimized.
Your current PaintManager™ program CD has a feature that will automatically shut down the software program at a specified time. This will allow your Internet Update application to run and provide you with the most up-to-date color formulas and program updates. The user simply needs to start the PaintManager™ program the next day.
Yes. The Internet Update program installed on the computer is all that is needed to be open or running while the information transfer takes place. The PaintManager™ program MUST be closed and not running during the information transfer. Get into the habit of minimizing the Internet Update application.
Connection speed is influenced by provider, location and time of day. Your Internet Update utility should be configured to perform the data transfer outside of typical working hours.
Yes. Antivirus software is highly recommended for any computer that is connected to the internet. Select a software package that provides virus protection and the ability to scan files and remove infections. Refer to the Recommended Tools to Facilitate Network Connectivity document for suggested steps to protect your system.
The Internet Update utility can be set up to operate on a weekly (which is highly recommended) or monthly schedule. The user can control the specific day and frequency. To learn more about the configurable options, please view the Internet Update User Guide.
The main screen of the Internet Update utility will post the results of the most recent update. For more information, refer to the Internet Update User Guide.
As with the PaintManager™ CD updates, new color formulas, products, and pricing are key components of the data transfer. The Internet Update utility will also provide Paint Manager™ upgrades in features and functionality when available. This process will also upgrade the Internet Update utility as well. For more information, refer to the Internet Update User Guide.
No. The PIN is generated during the registration process and is used only one time during the configuration of the Internet Update utility. Only one PIN is needed and can be used in combination with the location's CTS number.
No. A fully functional Internet Update utility is all that is needed to have the most current program, color and product information.
No. The Internet Update utility is designed to supplement the PaintManager™ color retrieval software only. It will update all relevant information and functionality to allow formula retrieval, mixing and reporting capabilities.

SIAEC, P&W partner on PW1000G mill
SIA Engineering (SIAEC) and Pratt & Whitney have signed a partnership deal that will see the Singaporean MRO provider participate in the PW1000G risk-revenue sharing program, SIAEC announced today.
Under the terms of the deal, SIAEC will take a 3-percent stake in the PW1000G engine development for the Bombardier C Series and a 1-percent stake in the PW1000G variant under development for the Mitsubishi MRJ. SIAEC said it has incorporated two special-purpose subsidiaries to hold the investments in the respective programs.
The contract also calls for Pratt & Whitney to designate Eagle Services Asia–a joint venture between SIAEC and P&W–as the first engine center in the global MRO network planned for the PW1500G engine (the version of the PW1000G slated to power the C Series). Furthermore, the arrangement will supply business to the SIAEC/P&W engine component repair joint ventures in Singapore, SIAEC said.
"By scaling up the MRO value chain through our investments in the development of the PW1000G engine, our P&W joint ventures will benefit from the downstream MRO work," said SIAEC chief executive William Tan. "The acquisition of new engine capabilities will also enable SIAEC to access the markets of next-generation aircraft powered by the new engines."
SIAEC said it does not expect the transaction to materially affect its financial performance in FY2009/2010.

First migrants are early harbingers of spring
"Timing is everything," some say. That's certainly true for migratory birds. When we consider timing for these species, more than anything else we are talking about weather. Weather can mean the difference between survival and death for migrants. Wild creatures have been blessed by evolution with exceptional instincts about when to migrate, but accidents and freak events can happen to them, too.

Buying Mozzarella: Tips and Tricks
23 Sep 13
Simone Gie
Mozzarella is one of the world's favorite cheeses, but unlike many others, its name has not been adequately protected. Today you can walk into any store and find a very industrial piece of cheese called mozzarella that has nothing to do with its authentic cousin made exclusively from buffalo milk in the region Campania in southern Italy. So how to know if you're choosing the real thing? And what to do with it once you've got it in your hands? The internationally known Obikà Mozzarella Bar has a stand at this year's Cheese, giving visitors tastes of mozzarella paired with Slow Food Presidia products. We asked President and founder, Silvio Ursini, for his expert advice. Here's what he says:
• The first thing you need to do is look for the protected name: Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP from Italy. In order to use this name, producers need to be in the Campania region and follow strict procedures, for example, they are not allowed to have any cows on their farm to avoid potential addition of cow milk.
• Stay away from the dry yellowish-colored mozzarella used for grating.
• Fresh mozzarellas made with cow's milk can sometimes be good, but this is a completely different cheese!
• Be careful about "smoked" mozzarella. It is very rare to find one that is smoked naturally with hay. The vast majority are produced with artificial flavor.
• Look for the white round ball that comes in a bag with brine.
• Check the expiration date. This can technically be after 2-3 weeks, but the further you get towards the end, the less likely it is that it will be good. Talk to your grocer about when the mozzarella is coming in and buy it immediately - the same day if you can. Mozzarella that is exported is generally made and shipped within 48 hours.
Once you get it home…
• Keep it out of the fridge for a few hours before eating it to get it to the temperature up to where it tastes best.
• A little trick for consumers outside of Italy: Dip the whole bag in really hot water for a few minutes. This will reactivate all the enzymes in the brine and the mozzarella will recover from the trip. An anti-jet lag!
• On the eye: The mozzarella should be shiny and porcelain white.
• When you cut it you should see little holes that weep droplets of milk.
• On the palate: The texture should be slightly crunchy, not totally soft. The taste should have notes of hazelnuts and slight hint of musk that comes from the buffalos.
• When the mozzarella is very fresh you can eat it by itself without condiments. If abroad (when the cheese will be a few days old) a dash of good extra-virgin olive oil won't hurt. But please people – no garlic! It will kill the taste buds and for all you know you might as well be eating a piece of Camembert. Stay away from oregano and other dry spices that overwhelm.
• If you want to use it on pizza made sure to cut it first and squeeze out the liquid, otherwise it will make your pizza too soggy.
Mozzarella has been at center stage during Cheese over the last few days; the star of workshops, conferences and a live demonstration of its production at the Slow Food Foundation's Biodiversity House (pictured).

Counties with highest wage growth, second quarter 2006
January 12, 2007
Among the largest counties, Orleans Parish, Louisiana (part of the New Orleans metropolitan area), led the nation in growth in average weekly wages from the second quarter of 2005 to the second quarter of 2006, with an increase of 28.0 percent.
Jefferson Parish, Louisiana (also in the greater New Orleans area), was second, followed by the counties of Harrison, Mississippi (which includes the cities of Biloxi and Gulfport), Rock Island, Illinois (which borders Iowa), and Somerset, New Jersey (which is near the center of the state).
The high average weekly wage growth rates for Orleans and Jefferson Parishes and Harrison County were related to the disproportionate job losses in lower-paid industries due to the impact of Hurricane Katrina. That is, the loss of low paid jobs due to the storm boosted average wages in those areas.
The national average weekly wage rose by 4.4 percent between the second quarter of 2005 and the second quarter of 2006.
The BLS Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages program produced these data, which are preliminary and subject to revision. Data presented here are for all workers covered by State and Federal unemployment insurance programs. Large counties are defined as having employment levels of 75,000 or greater. To learn more about employment and wages by county see "County Employment and Wages: Second Quarter 2006" (PDF) (TXT), news release 07-0021.

The Sculpture Program at the College of Arts & Media provides an uncompromising level of university-level undergraduate instruction (Bachelor of Fine Arts and Bachelor of Arts degrees) in the theory and practice creating three dimensional art. Students learn skills and processes including welding, woodcarving, lost-wax bronze casting, clay, and plaster media, as well as less traditional multi-media, installation, and environmental work.
We offer:
Curricula that inspires exploration in a variety of mediums
Study Abroad programs where students experiment, collaborate, react and immerse themselves into culture and countryside
Dedicated faculty who are practicing artists
Vigorous Visiting Artist program
Exhibition venues
Facilities that make it possible for students to produce a body of high-quality and diverse work.
The program's goal is to develop educated individuals who are thinking and creative sculptors, capable of complex problem solving and heightened visual perception, possessing an awareness of sculpture's cultural and historical context.
To learn more about the Sculpture program at CU Denver and to see student work, please visit our portfolio website:
Students are strongly encouraged to apply for a Fall semester start (the Visual Arts Department accepts Fall applications only). This is due to the fact that the majority of the first-semester courses are offered in Fall semesters only. The Visual Arts majors are highly sequenced and pre-requisites are strictly enforced. Students who begin in the Spring and Summer semesters may find that their required courses are not offered until the Fall semester.
The BFA in Fine Arts is the professional degree in art. With a BFA, students can choose to further their education by earning the terminal degree in Arts-the Master of Fine Arts degree. In addition to the 12 required classes for a BFA in Fine Art, Sculpture emphasis students will take a standard range of core academic and foundational art classes such as drawing foundations, 2 and 3-dimensional design, color theory, art seminar, art history survey. Then sculpture students will select from a list of Sculpture emphasis courses consisting of 39 credits.
To learn more about the opportunities awaiting you in the Sculpture BA or BFA program, please contact a College of Arts & Media advisor.
The Visual Arts faculty is comprised of artists and historians who understand the importance art applications both in and outside of the classroom. For this reason, your instructors strive to be the bridge between you and the professional world. With the encouragement and efforts of faculty, students are able to involve themselves with the Denver Art Museum, the Emmanuel Gallery, and with various visiting artists, galleries and museums across the front range.
The faculty's active participation in their field ensures that students receive both a traditional and a cutting-edge education. To learn more about the Visual Arts faculty, please select their name and you will be directed to their personal web pages, or visit the faculty home page.
Students pursuing careers in Sculpture receive a Bachelor of Arts in Fine Arts (BA) or Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fine Arts (BFA) from the Department of Visual Arts in the College of Arts & Media, a degree awarded by the University of Colorado Denver.
For more information on admission procedures for this degree program please contact a CAM advisor at firstname.lastname@example.com.
As a Sculpture graduate from the Visual Arts program, the career opportunities available to you are as limitless as your motivation and imagination. Here are just a few of the options available to this program's graduates.
Students who wish to transfer to the College of Arts & Media from another college or school at the University of Colorado Denver must formally apply to the College of Arts & Media. Students will be considered for admission on either their overall GPA in applicable coursework from CU and all previous institutions, or on their last 15 credit hours. Applicants with less than a 2.0 GPA in related courses (from CU or other institutions) and an overall CU GPA of less than 2.0 will be denied admission even though they may meet other requirements for consideration.

Main Campus vs. Extension Tuition and Fees
Tuition and fees are charged according to campus of the course (main campus or extension) and not student classification. When using the SeaNet registration system, please keep in mind that Extension courses are courses with section numbers 800 or higher and a campus of "EXT." Only these sections of courses are billed at the Extension tuition rates which are calculated on a per credit hour basis.

Ultimately, it is the student's responsibility to be aware of these differences and the impact they have on tuition charges.

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Panicking Brokers
Cramer would be a buyer of the oil and gas names into weakness, however, as he sees no reason for them to fall further. He likes ConocoPhillips (COP) and Chevron (CVX). Cramer was also bullish on the banks, those that are actually making money, as well as the HMOs, but not any hospital stocks.
Cramer also recommended owning gold, as well as packaged goods makers that sell overseas like Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) or Pepsico (PEP).
Finally, Cramer said he likes Home Depot (HD) as it helps the Northeast rebuild from the hurricane, as well as Cabellas (CAB), which has gotten cheap going into the cold, winter season.
Lightning Round
In the Lightning Round, Cramer was bullish on Boardwalk Partners (BWP).Cramer was bearish on Vivus (VVUS), JC Penney (JCP), Sears Holdings (SHLD) and Frontier Communications (FTR).
In the PipelineIn his second "Executive Decision" segment, Cramer spoke with Dr. Phillip Frost, chairman and CEO of Opko Health (OPK), a speculative biotech company with no less than six exciting new products under development. Frost talked about his company's efforts in the Vitamin D market, which is a $2.5 billion market in the U.S. He said that Opko's new Vitamin D test can be done in the doctor's office, avoiding the need to send a sample to a lab for analysis, which saves both time and money. Frost also talked about Opko's new prostate cancer screening, called a 4K Score. He said that with a simple drop of blood, the 4K test provides patients with a number determining the likelihood that they have prostate cancer and how aggressive that cancer might be. He said the test can eliminate the need for millions of needless biopsies preformed every year. The test is already on the market in the U.K. and could reach the U.S. by early 2013. Cramer said Opko remains one of his favorite long-term biotech stories.
Am I Diversified?In the "Am I Diversified?" segment, Cramer spoke with callers and responded to tweets sent via Twitter to @JimCramer to see if investors' portfolios have what it takes for today's markets. The first portfolio included: RedHat (RHT), Hewlett-Packard (HPQ), Panera Bread (PNRA), Atwood Oceanics (ATW) and Sony (SNE).

We have a ringside seat in an arms race for big data. Mammoth industry players such as Monsanto Company, John Deere and DuPont Pioneer, as well as fresh entries such as Granular (a new company you can read about on page 88), are investing in software, equipment and services to crack the code for practical, actionable data that will reliably increase yields and boost profits.
I've long been an advocate for precision farming and big data. The savings—and earnings—the two can deliver can be transformative. None of that changes the fact that there are potholes on the road to big data. Consider these:
Now is the time to tread carefully. Closely examine agreements, read the privacy and data policies, understand the terms of data ownership and only work with vendors and companies who you trust fully and completely.

During three days in December, the Western Michigan hockey team worked towards the common goal of capturing its first Great Lakes Invitational title since 1986. To do so, it would have to brave the conditions of a cold Comerica Park.
The GLI was being played outdoors for the first time in 49 years and it would be the first ever varsity game outdoors for the WMU hockey program.
We sent a two-man video team with the Broncos to Detroit to capture this historic event. There was not an area that was closed to them. They had full access to the student-athletes, the coaches, practices, games and celebration.
Out of those hours of footage was born this three-part series. Each episode details one day for WMU. In the end, a trophy will be raised but we begin with early morning breakfast, loading of the bus in the dark, the first practice.
This is Episode 1. This is Skating with the Broncos: All-Access to the GLI:

MILWAUKEE (WTAQ) - The search continued Friday afternoon for two men who were shooting at each other, when one of their bullets critically wounded a ten-year-old girl.
Milwaukee Police lieutenant Mark Stanmeyer said investigators have identified one of the gunmen -- and both were still being sought as of early afternoon.
Third-grader Sierra Guyton was caught in the crossfire while on a playground Wednesday evening at Clarke Street Elementary School on Milwaukee's north side.
Sierra was still in critical condition at mid-day at Milwaukee Children's Hospital. She was still getting treatment, even though her family said she was brain dead and on life support.

Written by Jason Garrison
Editor's Note: The following article is editorial in nature and content. This editorial represents the author's research, opinion, and understanding of Hermain Cain and his proposed 9-9-9 plan. This editorial does not necessarily represent the opinion of the College Conservatives Maranatha Chapter.
If you've been watching the news lately, you've seen the name Herman Cain.
If you've paid attention, you've heard about his 9-9-9 tax policy.
The Bad: In one sentence: The 9-9-9 Plan. This policy is hot off the press and, in my opinion, a red flag to potential supporters. Almost everyone in America agrees on one thing: the current tax system—a graduated income tax where you pay a higher percentage the more you make —is flawed and in need of serious reform. Cain's policy calls for a 9% tax across the board: 9% corporate tax, 9% income tax, and 9% consumption tax. The policy is more complex than that, but let's focus on the basic idea. While many are attracted to Cain's tax policy on the surface, a closer look shows some serious problems. A main issue is additional state tax. Not only are Founders rolling over at a proposal giving the federal government higher tax control but also implementing 9% consumption tax means adding 9% to whatever a state has determined their tax rate to be. Example: Illinois's sales tax is 10%. 10% + 9% = 19% tax on everything purchased in Illinois. Most states constitutions also include a percentage of income tax withheld. So in addition to a 9% + consumption tax—many states will also withhold 13-17% of a household's income.
Yes, Herman Cain is politically conservative, charismatically engaging, and a great leader—but the only way he is getting my vote is if he kicks the 9-9-9 plan to the curb.
