Train Slams Into Egyptian School Bus Killing at Least 49 Children
At least 49 kindergarten children in Egypt are dead this morning after a train slammed into their school bus while they were en route to school. The accident happened in al-Mandara village in the Manfaloot district.
The bus was carrying more than 50 children between the ages of 4 and 6, and so far, at least 49 have been reported dead, and between 7 and 11 kids were injured and some of them have severed limbs.
And we can only begin to imagine the absolute horror of this scene, as witnesses are reporting children's books, school bags, clothing, and belongings scattered among the wreckage -- and based on the severity of the accident, it's hard to fathom the level of macabre people are seeing.
If those images aren't heartbreaking enough, parents have arrived at the scene of the accident searching in agony for their children -- and likely wondering how something as routine as putting them on the school bus can result in such unimaginable tragedy.
So, how exactly did the collision happen? Well, from what has been reported so far, it looks as though the railroad crossing was not closed, so the driver likely had no warning that a speeding train was headed straight for the bus.
An eyewitness also reports that the train pushed the bus along the tracks for almost a kilometer. What an absolutely gut-wrenching thing to see -- all while knowing there is nothing you can do to help.
My heart and prayers go out to those poor children and their grieving parents -- the devastation they must be feeling right now is something no one should ever have to go through.
What words of sympathy would you offer to these people?

As a former bus driver, I HAD to stop at every single railraod tracks (even if they were not active). I had to stop at them, turn on my red crossing lights, open my door, turn off my radio, make the kids be quiet, look both ways TWICE and then proceed across.
I understand that bus driver training isn't as good as the kind I had but I would think the driver would have had some common sense about crossing the tracks.

linzemaeNovember 17, 2012 at 2:16 PMI do have a soul, there are rules for crossing a train track for a reason! My husband works for bnsf and he watches people violate them all the time and then everyone wants to blame the conductor. Trains can't stop on a dime! It's horrible that so many kids lost their lives because the bus driver was too careless.

CNN said the rails weren't down. Regardless of that, the bus driver has the responsibility of being aware of their surroundings and bent cautious. They were not n this case it seems. One dad that lost three children said, "I had not seen them in the morning before they went to school because I was at work. I have to accept God's decision," he said. "Their destiny was written before they were born. They were all studying the Quran and recited many verses to me. Maybe I will see them in heaven." Prayers for the children, their families, and all those affected by this.

Seven (7) tips advising you to change some things today to be professional.
1. Your email address ends with yahoo, gmail or hotmail. Ex. Your business should not have firstname.lastname@example.com. Why? Because emails are user-friendly and free. Hosting provides the option of a free email address with the purchase. If you cannot afford, for your business a personal domain or email address, potential clients may assume that you cannot provide to them a professional service for their business. Another reason is the difficulty of someone locating your company if you operate under gmail account. An organizations' email address usually ends with the organizations' name, not at the beginning. (i.e.. firstname.lastname@example.com vs. email@example.com)
2. An organization's domain should not start with a number. Ex. 4youinterior.com. Why? The internet speaks a language much like people and numbers are a part of its communication. Starting a domain with a number tells google and other systems to perform a string, so your SEO becomes lost in the system and not recognized.
3. Your business card should be appealing and not display on the back of you're printing company you've used. Why? Nothing is worst than receiving a business card from a professional who purchased the FREE 500 business card package.
4. Never have a template design. Why? Let me give you a short story. Someone gave me a business card that was from a template design. The business was about an investment opportunity. Took it serious at the start and even invested. A month later, on the news, this company was charged with fraud. Now about 2 months later, someone else presents a card similar in design to the past company and I never even read it because the similarities made me think that he was associated with the same company. Come to find out it was a construction company, still I didn't pay any attention. Templates are used by many. It is not personally branded by your company so the visuality of these template can cost you your business.
5. Your website was created using yahoo or godaddy. Immediately this tells true professionals that you are cheap. A quote of mine, "If you don't look like you will spend money on your business, why should I spend money on your business".
6. Back to your website! If your website looks good on your computer doesn't mean it looks good on another computer .(i.e.. the shirt may look good on you but not on your friend). Only professionals can create sites that can provide versatility and fit to your business image. Templates have limitations, that's why they are so cheap translation to a potential clients, your cheap and unprofessional.
7. Your logo doesn't work in black or white. Your logo should be versatile. If your logo (right now) converted to black and white is not visible or readable, then you do not have a logo. Your logo should be provided to you in vector (points) form only. Professional logos are not done in jpeg, png, bmp. They are formatted into these other media's from eps or ai formats.
Please, don't take it to heart. Tips provided are self taught lessons learned throughout the years. Can you add to the list or ask. Questioned welcomed.

What's the perfect dish?
- r
- richburgfoodie Jun 21, 2011 05:11 AM
I watch a lot of food shows on PBS, food network, etc. and they make a lot of the fact that a chef's goal in offering creative dishes should be those that contain a sweet, sour, hot and salty component. A new one has been added by the Japanese called "umami" which is a savory component. What dish do you think is a good example of "sweet, sour, salty and hot? And what dishes are an example of "umami"?
There is no such thing as a perfect dish, though there are great dishes.
SSSH: pick a Vietnamese dish of your choosing. The success to the cuisine is based on the balance of these four.
Umami: dashi (katsuobushi + kombu). You can also get this in dried mushrooms, mojamas, Parmesan, tomato and other elements
I have a sixth one for you to consider: kokumi ("deliciousness")
re: wattacetti
I'm not very close to a Vietnamese restaurant and sadly know little to nothing about their cuisine. Are you saying all Vietnamese dishes use these four? And what food would be considered "kokumi"?
re: richburgfoodie
The basis of Vietnamese cuisine (and much of Southeast Asia) is the harmonious balance between these four. So yes, all Vietnamese dishes that aren't sweets attempt this.
Since you mention a bit further downthread that you're from the south, I'm going to do a stereotype and consider dry rubs and barbecue sauces. The rubs almost always contain salt, sugar, chile/pepper as base ingredients, so you have sweet, salty and hot. And sauces have a vinegar component in addition to those four. if you have come across a great sauce, you can think of those four elements.
Barbecue also has meat, which provides a significant umami component to the equation.
I wrote about kokumi elsewhere, but it's the neurologic trigger that makes you think "delicious" - initial taste and impact, roundness, balance among other sensations. It's based on certain amino acids triggering CaSR. Foods which do this: Gouda cheese, koji (yeast spores used to brew sake and soy sauce, so therefore soy sauce by default), other yeast extracts, maltodextrin. However, any food that's high in certain amino acids will do this.
I think you can experience those flavors and profiles in a number of cuisines. Maybe if you tell us what cuisines you enjoy, we can help you come up examples within those cuisines, or give you ideas as to how to achieve that contrast/balance in the dishes you already enjoy?
But as to the sweet/sour/salty/hot thing - Thai food is a great place to start to experience that balance and contrast.
re: inaplasticcup
"But as to the sweet/sour/salty/hot thing - Thai food is a great place to start to experience that balance and contrast."
Thai food has all sorts of greatness in it, and despite my wimpy taste buds, I have yet to experience a thai dish that I haven't at least enjoyed.
re: inaplasticcup
I'm southern so let's start there. If you fried chicken in a nice seasoned coating with lots of salt and chile and put a sweet and sour sauce on it could that be considered the correct type profile?
re: richburgfoodie
That idea certainly seems to hit all those notes. Wouldn't be unlike some of the chicken wings I've had at Thai places.
I think what's really great about a good Thai dish is that it hits those notes, but not overwhelmingly or cloyingly so (well, the heat can be overwhelming if your tolerance is low).
Or here's another example that's fresh in my mind. I made fish tacos on Sunday night with some spicy salsa and crema, and topped off with a spoonful of diced mangos. I got the salty from the light seasoning on the fish and from the salsa, spicy from the chilies in the salsa and the crema, sour also from the tomatoes and lime in the salsa as well as a bit of tang from the crema, and a touch of sweet from the mangos. That dish hit all those notes.
Now trying to think of more Southern food examples. Interesting exercise...
For sweet, sour, hot and salty combo, I think Southeastern countries like Thai, Vietname and Indonesia know how to create the perfect balance. So much flavor packed into a dish...maybe this is why Thai is my favorite cuisine.
A really good burger :P
Maple glazed bacon for your sweet and salty, mushrooms for your umami, pickles for your sour and a little sriracha for your spicy if you must :P
Its not really that hard to find dishes with all the flavor components, you have them all the time and just don't realize it.
re: twyst
I started thinking about this more after posting it and if any of you have ever watched Bobby Flay cook on tv you will note that he seems to always try for this balance. If you took away mustard, honey and chile he would be lost. I'm like twyst, this is not as surprising as it seems because many of the foods we take for granted champion this theme. As wattecetti said, bbq usually has that sweet,hot, sour, salty profile. Burgers made Carolina style with chili and slaw fit into that category because you have the spicy chili but then the sweet/sour of the slaw.
re: richburgfoodie
So true. I think so many of us like it because it hits so many notes and strikes such a nice balance.
re: beevod
consider almost any creole or cajun dish ........ jambalaya, gumbo, etoufee ........ all of them have the sweet, hot, salty, bitter flavor profiles. I'm interested in expounding on this with some new additions of well rounded dishes with WOW factors
I don't think there's a perfect dish or a perfect cuisine, but there's a soup I make in the winter that does meet the SSHS requirement and is pretty close to perfect. It's easy, quick and contains the entire dinner in a single bowl. It contains dried Spanish chorizo, onions, vegetable broth, spinach, sweet potatoes, tomatoes and chickpeas. My 16 yo daughter calls it Man Soup because guys seem to like it a lot.
Any well-prepared meal can balance those taste components, though I think richness is also a factor one should consider when building a meal that entices as well as satisfies. Asian dishes are often good examples of this balance as these culinary cultures emphasize the relationship between these flavors, but you can also find good balance of sweet, sour, salty, hot in non-Asian food:
Goulasch (sweetness from caramelized tomatoes and onions, sour from red wine vinegar and hot from the paprika)
Chicken biscuit (sweetness from honey, hot and sour from Tabasco, salty from the biscuit and batter)
Paella (sweetness from vegetables, sour from lemon, salty from seafood, hot from paprika)
re: JungMann
wow! This is making me hungry
The term Umami is constantly misused and misunderstood. It is not a separate entity from these four tastes. It is the combination of all of them in one food source. Also, hot is not one of the tastes, as you listed. It is sweet, sour, salty and bitter. The most obvious is soy sauce, but the taste is also present in many fish. Anyone who has had a very ripe tomato has experienced this too. The sweetness of the flesh, the faint saltiness, the sourness of the seeds and the slight bitter taste of the skin. When cooked the sourness and bitterness comes out and that is why many add carrots to tomato sauces to give it that sweetness and saltiness.
I think the perfect dish is a good fish cooked in a francese sauce. You have the sweetness of the butter, the sourness of the lemon, the saltiness of the fish and the bitterness of the wine and capers. Together, no one taste stands out, but they meld perfectly into something special.
re: jhopp217
You are incorrect about umami. It is a distinct taste - that of glutamate. I don't know whether something was lost in translation from the original Japanese, but that's very much what it currently refers to in English. It doesn't have anything to do with sweet, sour, salty, or bitter.
re: mamachef
Anything that makes the inner ear vibrate is sound. Sorry, it is less poetic. I think limitations arise when trying to apply words which are limited to tastes and experiences which are not limited to anything close to the same degree. What is umami to one person may be "earthiness" may be called "savioriness" or "meatiness" to another and then how the description is perceived might be something completely different. Whatever. It is limited to ones individual perceptions and ability to describe it. Some say MSG is umami, but can it be broken down and described in different words? Sure. Umami is a convenient way to put a word to something that can very broad. Same with any other tastes as a bite of bitter melon and a bite of a grapefruit rind are different but are both "bitter".
i agree with those who said that there's no such thing as the "perfect" dish. taste is subjective, and even if *you* might think the SSSH components in a particular preparation are balanced properly, someone else might not.
plus you'd also need to address appearance, textures, temperatures...
The perfect meal for me is eating food produced from my own efforts. Just last week had freshly caught striper bass, swiss chard and salad greens from my backyard garden.
This one SE Asian condiment has all of the things you're looking for. And it's one of the best multi-purpose sauces ever and one of the best examples of the flavors you're looking for.
Fish sauce (Umami, saltiness) + Lime Juice (sour) + Sugar/Honey (Sweet) + chopped chili peppers (hot). I like to also add some herbs and aromatics like cilantro and garlic and jack it up with msg for more umami. It's great on pretty much everything.

Here's a recap of some of the big stories in Class AAAAA from Week 1, with a peek ahead to this weekend:
*Starring in a new role: Perhaps one of the most overlooked performances from the opening weekend was the play of Jenkins' Paris Baker in the Warriors' 21-20 victory against defending Class A champion Savannah Christian. Baker, a star linebacker last season, made his first start at quarterback, rushing for 141 yards on 25 carries and completing 6-of-11 passes for 63 yards, according to the Savannah Morning News. Baker scored all three of Jenkins' touchdowns on runs of 12, 54 and 4 yards.
*Tucker rolls to 16th consecutive victory: It wasn't the drubbing that some might have expected from 2011 Class AAAA champion Tucker, but the second-ranked Tigers put up some impressive numbers in their 36-14 victory against Cedar Grove, which was ranked No. 7 in the preseason Class AAA poll. Tucker had 411 yards of total offense, paced by the rushing of Yusuf Minor (124 yards), Dallas Rivers (115) and Joseph Farrar (97). And the Tigers held preseason all-state quarterback Johnathan McCrary to 92 yards passing. He averaged 240 yards per game last season.
*Rough start for the Wildcats: Things couldn't have gotten off to a worse start for Whitewater, a 7-3 team last season that barely missed qualifying for the playoffs. Facing a Class AAAAAA Coffee team that seems rejuvenated after the hiring of coach Robby Pruitt, Whitewater suffered a 20-yard sack on the first play from scrimmage, and things went downhill from there in a 41-3 loss. Coffee outgained Whitewater 405-113. It was Whitewater's most-lopsided loss in the program's nine-year history. The Wildcats have the week off to regroup for their next game on Sept. 7 against Mundy's Mill.
*A big weekend in store: Some of Class AAAAA's best teams will be tested right off the bat with big non-region games this weekend. Some of the top games include Colquitt County (No. 7 in AAAAAA) at No. 9 Thomas County Central; No. 1 Northside-Warner Robins at No. 10 Flowery Branch; Class AAAAAA Coffee at Ware County; Marist (No. 3 in AAAA) at Clarke Central; and Class AAAAAA West Forsyth at No. 8 Gainesville. I'll have more on these later in the week.

Northside (Warner Robins) 42, @ Flowery Branch 7
Let's call this "Reality Friday" in Flowery Branch, GA. I fully expect the Flowery Branch stadium to be sold out. It is the opening game of the new season. The Falcons are ranked in the top 10. There is reason for happiness at FBHS. However, a cruel reality is coming to Flowery Branch in the form of Northside HS.
The Eagles will be merciless, as we look to end the horrors of our last football game where we literally handed the State Championship to a Tucker HS program that we had crushed and broken. The Tucker fan base was heading towards the exits. Their little band had stopped dancing. All our Eagles had to do is walk into the end zone to push the lead to 23-10. Instead, we fumbled and as the ball fell into the hand of a Tucker defender who ran 103 yards the other way to give Tucker a well-deserved 17-16 win at McConnell-Talbert Stadium. I pity poor Flowery Branch HS. It is going to be a very long night. I fully expect the Gwinnett County/Hall County excuse thread to be running overtime Friday night and Saturday.

The Braves wrapped up the draft Wednesday, knowing they'll have their top six players on the field soon. Scouting director Tony DeMacio revealed that the Braves they have reached agreement with each of their top six picks, and among those, fourth-rounder Justin Black has already officially signed.
That top group includes right-hander Lucas Sims, the first-rounder from Brookwood, left-hander Alex Wood, the second-rounder from Georgia, catcher Bryan De La Rosa, the third-rounder from Olympic Heights (Fla.) High, Black, the center fielder from Billings, MT, right fielder Blake Brown, the fifth-rounder from the University of Missouri, and catcher Josh Elander, the sixth-rounder from TCU.
Sims plans to report to the Braves Gulf Coast League team in Orlando on Tuesday.
The signing deadline was moved up a month to July 13 this year, but the Braves don't sound like they're going to need it.
"We're trying to do the same thing we've done the last couple years," DeMacio said. "We were trying to find players that can play the game and players that want to play."
Terms of the agreements were not revealed but the Braves typically remain close to slot, and those first five picks are slotted at around $3.3 million, with a suggested bonus of $1.825 million for the first pick and $583,000 for the second. The Braves can spend up to $4.03 million for their top 10 picks without penalty.
They can spend less and use what remains to sign high school players in lower rounds, above the $100,000 ceiling for players drafted in the 11th round or lower.
DeMacio said given the new rules, teams have drafted more senior college players in the early rounds so they have money left over for higher leverage high school players. That's why more high school players were both available and signable for the Braves.
After drafting only nine high school players in 50 rounds last year, the Braves drafted 15 in only 40 rounds this year.
"It's not that we didn't want to take high school kids before because we did take some," he said. "But it was just a lot of the better ones were already gone before the time we picked."
DeMacio doesn't expect signability to be much of an issue past the early round picks either, saying the Braves have reached agreement with "most everybody that we want to sign."
"We have not been held up by anybody yet," he said.
Wren drafted by Reds
Kyle Wren, son of Braves general manager Frank Wren, was drafted in the 30th round Wednesday by the Cincinnati Reds. And while he wasn't taken by the hometown team, his father was tickled for the center fielder from Georgia Tech.
"I am happy and proud of Kyle that he was drafted today by Cincinnati," Frank Wren said.
Wren said he recused himself from conversations with the Braves scouting staff about his son leading up to the draft.
"I made it clear it would be their decision and was not in the room when he was discussed prior to the draft," Wren said. "I'm just happy for him with as hard as he has worked to get to this point."
By virtue of turning 21 years old on April 23, within 45 days of the draft, Kyle Wren was eligible to be drafted as a sophomore. With two years of eligibility left, he could return to Georgia Tech and be re-drafted.
Wren hit .256 with 10 doubles, six triples, two home runs and 22 RBIs in 62 games this season for the Yellow Jackets, who lost in the NCAA regionals last weekend in Gainesville, Fla. Wren had hit .340 in 63 games as a freshman.
Braves re-draft Kimbrel
The Braves drafted right-hander Matt Kimbrel, older brother of closer Craig Kimbrel, for the second year in the hopes and plan to follow him for the next month to see how he's progressed another year removed from elbow reconstruction surgery and determine whether to sign him.
"At least he's going to have a chance," Craig said. "And I hope he can run with it and do good…He feels a lot better, and he's developed. He's starting to understand the game a little better, instead of just slinging it up there. That comes with getting older and being around the game more. And now he's not having to worry about the health of his arm."…
Snyder's goodbyes
The Braves scouting and front office staff gathered around Paul Snyder at the end of the draft Tuesday for an on-the-field photo at Turner Field. They wanted to commemorate a draft that the Braves Hall of Famer said will be his last as a major contributor. Snyder, 77, has been trying to back away for years.
"He keeps trying," DeMacio said. "But he said he's afraid if he gets in a car and goes and sees a couple games, it'll be like an alcoholic. He'll want to continue to do it again."
It was a bittersweet moment for the man who has been with the Braves for almost 60 years and helped build the foundation for their 14-year run of division titles.
"He touched everybody – scouts, coaches, the players loved him, parents," DeMacio said. "There will never be another Paul Snyder. He's not replaceable."
Quick hits
The Braves were happy to draft Dominican-born center fielder Fernelys Sanchez in the 16th round out of George Washington High in New York, the same high school Manny Ramirez attended, after other teams shied away because he missed most of his senior year with a broken leg.
They'll send him to Orlando to be evaluated but hope to get him into some Gulf Coast League games. "We were real happy to get him at 16," said DeMacio, who said Sanchez is a switch-hitter with 80 speed….
The Braves had gone four years since drafting a player from the University of Georgia, since taking reliever Josh Fields in the second round in 2007, but this year they took two in Wood and second baseman Levi Hyams in the 19th round.
The Braves re-drafted Kevin McKague, a 6-5 first baseman from West Point, knowing this time around he can play the summer without missing time for military commitments. Beyond that, they're not sure, but DeMacio said: "The 23rd round we're going to take a gamble on a kid like this."
Staff writer David O'Brien contributed information to this report.

Go Jackets!

Nepotism alive and well in Atlanta GA.

I'm almost certain he'll be back at Tech next year. He's coming off a down year and should rebound nicely in his junior season. It helps that he has two more years of draft eligibility left, so he isn't forgoing any leverage by returning next year.

June 6th, 2012
5:55 pm
Do the Braves loathe Tech players so much they aren't willing to take the GM's son? Not a single Tech player picked by the Braves, but they picked a handful of UGA players and prospective UGA players.
Either, they don't like Tech (Brandon Thomas would have been a great pick in Round 3 by the Braves). Or, they like Tech so much that they pick UGA players and weaken them. Tech players stay back at school, strengthening them. So, which is it?
UGA had a good recruiting class this year and many of them were drafted in this year's draft, thereby depleting them. Only one Tech HS recruit (Matt Gonzalez – 11th round by the A's) was drafted. Really excited about Sam Clay and the new guys coming to Tech next year. Go Jackets!
June 6th, 2012
6:08 pm
Did the Braves take Kimbrel's younger brother Matt two years in a row? Both times in the 32nd round?
Here is a link to Carroll's article from 6:39 pm June 8, 2011:
This link says Matt was unsigned, so maybe it is true.
Same team, same player, same (32nd) round. Amazing.

It would have been more appropriate if Wren's son had been drafted by the Cardinals or the Orioles. (For those that don't know, a wren is a bird) Man, I hate when I have to explain it.
June 6th, 2012
7:14 pm
Tex G… work on that reading comprehension. He wasn't drafted by the Braves guy.
June 6th, 2012
7:23 pm
Tex G .. seriously. Mike in TX beat me to it.
As for UGA players and Tech players, the Braves haven't had a big history of drafting either. They occasionally draft a Dawg, but I can't remember the last Yellow Jacket. The Braves do much better job trying to draft home-grown high school talent, but I am not sure why they tend to disrespect local college players, including WGa, GaSouthern, and a handful of other decent in state colleges.
I always feel that a local kid might be so inspired by playing for a team he grew up watching that it would overcome some lack of upside. I would have no problem overdrafting a local kid.
June 6th, 2012
7:48 pm
I thinkg the Wren kid will come back. It isn't like he needs the money. Education means something to the family. He went to a very good Private School in Atlanta. They are a tight knit family. Guessing he'll come back and see if he can improve his stock. The kid will play somewhere, his dad will make sure he gets that chance somwehre – that I am sure of.
June 6th, 2012
7:50 pm
would a 30th round draft pick really leave a school like gt for 30th round pay??
June 6th, 2012
7:54 pm
college sophs have leverage. I doubt Wren signs with reds. they only have $100,000 to spend on a pick after 10th round without tapping into bonus pool for 1st 10 rounds.
would be better if Reds took his father Frank off our hands.
those late HS draft picks like Gilkin are basically not signable unless you had extra early picks to save money on..he isn't signing for anything close to $100,000 and where would the money come form ? how much could they save from their 10 round bonus pool ?
June 6th, 2012
9:40 pm
Wren probably couldn't draft his son after Schuerholtz talked the Braves into drafting his son a few years ago even though he couldn't hit at Auburn. He only lasted a couple of years before daddy gave him a job managing the Braves rookie ball team.
June 7th, 2012
7:15 am
"The Braves hope it wasn't a costly win as first baseman Freddie Freeman left the game with an injured left index finger (his throwing hand) after being hit by shortstop Jose Reyes' relay throw sliding into second base in the two-run fourth inning."
Uh, Dave, Freddie throws with his right hand.
June 7th, 2012

@ Caught in a Jacket
Wren likely wasn't drafted because he is not likely to sign this year. His dad probably just didn't want to let the cat out of the bag yet.

Without balloons a Xmas celebration is dull and lifeless, with an extensive number of options to create a jazzy and rich interior, only boundless varieties of Xmas balloons give a spark of enthusiasm to any and every celebration like the new home, or the thanking you, and get well, as at the impending more festivals and you can think of many others too to rejoice. This year I decided to collect some Mylar ones for Christmas celebration at my home, since I found them foil coated, shiny and printed with any message and to top it all, they are available in several enchanting shapes. I thought of Mylar also because they stay upright for several days whereas the latex can stay upright for maximum one or two days, which is quite a short time, latex, do not hold air, although they are pretty and brightly colored products, but the metallic have more printing options than the latex. I wanted the decoration with these to last at least for a few days to let my home decor stay bright with party look also made me feel happy till they were upright.
Making of themed decor
You can as well go for offering balloons from these two varieties by presenting your dear ones for this happy Yuletide. Also deliver jolly bouquets to others by sending them as a gift, your pals too can pep up their party with adorable balloon bouquets. The colors are plenty like the blues, greens, lime, reds and unlimited tones of these rainbow shades, for this unique day we must pick a collection of red and green Christmas balloons to match the red plants and blossoms. However you can also create a stunning eye-catchy arrangement in blues and whites for a winter look. You must have planned out a smashing hit party for kids or maybe for the entire family gathering and friends with music and ornamenting ideas, nice goodies for hungry stomachs, so add a touch of jazz with Christmas Mylar or latex Santa, Rudolph, tree shaped balloons for extra jubilance.
The kind of arrangement you want
Once you have received ample knowledge about the two types, you may as well decide the type of arrangement for the party, let us help you with some suggestions with the two available kinds, The colorful glittering and shiny foil Mylar Christmas balloons are also available with prints, so one can arrange as centerpiece, suspend them, adorn with columns or make a snowman shape, dress up at the doorway, window with contrast colors matching your other decorations of Yuletide. You cannot let your invitees leave empty handed so when your party is over, send your guests home with a balloon for a gift.
Shopping for the colorful clusters
Now the point is where to look for your kind of item, simply browse websites that cater to the best item you want to right printed message, color, shape and cost. Some websites hold inexpensive but quality items for a party and festival, and discount offers for many occasions. Look for the images to choose from the wide range of clusters, from latex and foil items, to match your theme of celebration. Shopping from store to store is rather difficult when each family member wants to look and select, so online shopping becomes quite possible and you can allow others to help you select from the available images of these. As soon as you have reached upon the decision of purchasing clusters of the given images you have to place the order by following given instructions. Your present of Christmas or Mylar balloons reaches you same day at your doorstep.

8. A Common Technology: TEI XML
Many of the projects the OUCS's InfoDev team has worked on (including the Lexicon of Greek Personal Names, Godwin's Diary, and ePub editions of Shakespeare's contemporaries (described in other sections of this OUCS News) manage data as XML valid against the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) Guidelines. The Epidoc conventions used in digitizing classical inscriptions are another example of a use of the TEI.
The TEI Guidelines were first published 20 years ago, but the current version is the result of a large-scale revision undertaken between 2001 and 2009 by text-encoding experts worldwide. Oxford is one of four universities which act as special 'hosts' within the membership consortium which manages the TEI, and OUCS staff have played a considerable part in TEI development. Sebastian Rahtz and James Cummings are well-known n the TEI world, and are elected members of the organisation's Technical Council. OUCS also undertakes much of the editorial work.
The TEI provides a comprehensive standard for tagging.
- transcribed texts (drama, poetry, speech, dictionaries etc)
- genetic editing
- links between facsimiles and transcribed text
- manuscript descriptions
- identified names, places, people and dates
- analysis, linguistic tagging, non-hierarchical structures
Here is a well-known piece from Shakespeare marked up in TEI XML:

This post is written in association with Dimension Data, an ICT services and solutions provider that uses its technology expertise, global service delivery capability and entrepreneurial spirit to accelerate the business ambitions of its clients. Dimension Data is a member of the NTT Group.
It used to be called a business plan. But management-speak and a few decades of PC-fueled innovation changed that simplistic approach.
Bill Gates famously entitled his first book The Road Ahead and although this didn't officially help coin or endorse the phrase "roadmap," it didn't do it any harm either.
How Does a Roadmap Sound?
Today we define a strategic technology roadmap as:
... a plan and schedule designed to describe, project and plot an organization's identifiable (and anticipated) business needs in relation to technology available today and those emerging technology platforms, devices and use cases that are still-nascent but emerging enough to be considered worthy of inclusion in the current planning phase.
Actually that's not an official definition from any particular source, but it reads credibly enough that you might consider it to be doesn't it?
What's the issue with strategic roadmaps and who needs them anyway?
A More Extended Consideration
The problem is that a large proportion of companies will not have laid down formal roadmaps in any truly extended sense. Yes they will have budgetary planning sheets, forecasts and roughshod business plans - but the strategic technology roadmap is a more extended consideration that demands greater time and energy.
But here's more of the problem: which type of roadmap are we talking about? There's a sales roadmap, a product development roadmap, a management roadmap, a technology roadmap, a mobile device roadmap and a security roadmap (just to name six primary roadmap locators) and we need to a) create and manage all of these plans and b) coalesce them.
In reality, if a firm does succeed in getting a selection of roadmaps (plural) off the ground there is typically one glaring hole or omission in the plans laid down. The security roadmap is, for some reason, often the least loved of the roadmap family.
A Key Roadmap? Mobile Device BYOD Security
More specifically, the "mobile device BYOD security roadmap" appears to get left out in the cold, even by those firms that do operate a distinct a) mobile policy and b) a security policy. Somehow or other, the coming together of the mobile device BYOD security factor fails to fuse in the nuclear reactor of roadmap fusion and creation.
The Dimension Data Enterprise Mobility Survey Report found that while 79% of IT leaders who classify mobility as a top priority, 69% already have a roadmap in place.
But... and it's a big but...
What is surprising is that two critical issues are not being addressed by a vast majority of those who are implementing a strategic mobility roadmap.
Only 29% of those who are implementing their roadmap have tested how well their core applications work on mobile devices and have conducted a security audit of applications touched by mobile devices - even though 67% of them named data security as their greatest mobility-related concern.
"Much of the focus on mobility strategy and implementation seems to relate to internal communication: individuals are better able to take meetings using their mobile devices, but the ability to have access to the applications needed for decision-making and to collaborate effectively are not enough of a priority to have a substantial impact on employee productivity or business agility," said the report.
Where Do We Go Now?
We may be able to get some clarity if we give the market another 18 months, i.e., BYOD could still be argued to be a comparatively new trend. The problem is, security is an issue now. Management-speak might circle around the subject of strategic roadmaps and put some practitioners off, but this is the stuff of now and it needs action.
For more information on this discussion topic Dimension Data has published an Enterprise Mobility Survey Report to examine the critical gap that exists between the enterprise mobility vision and real-world implementations.

Crossposted from Flopping Aces
What's worse than fiscally irresponsible Republicans controlling taxpayer purse strings? Democratic majorities in both Houses controlling taxpayer purse strings. And President-Elect Obama is finding that bipartisan agreement is unlikely when it requires both sides to compromise their visions for what is good for the country:
The president-elect's efforts to win over Republicans — in keeping with a campaign promise to end Washington gridlock — ignited a backlash within his own party. Obama has dedicated 40% of the package to tax reductions, divided evenly between business and middle-class tax cuts. But Democratic leaders are dissatisfied and want more focus on direct spending, less on tax relief.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) told reporters Wednesday the package needed a single focus: "Jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs."
"It must create jobs immediately, and it must contribute to the long-term stability of our economy to continue to create jobs," she said.
Last Thursday, House Democrats proposed an $825 billion stimulus package that is shamefully laden with pork that does not appear to have much to do with job creation for the purposes of economic stimulation:
GOP lawmakers also balked at the thousands of individual projects designated for funding in the House plan. "Oh, my God," House Minority Leader John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) said to reporters. "My notes here say that I'm disappointed. I just can't tell you how shocked I am at what I'm seeing."
Acknowledging concerns about potential government waste, Congress is creating a Web site — http://www.recovery.gov — to allow the public to track stimulus spending and file complaints. Obey said about 60 percent of the spending portion would assist states, local governments and local nonprofit organizations in providing social services, and that most of the money would be spent based on funding formulas.
"No earmarks," the chairman asserted.
And yet looking at the House Bill, it appears to be more of the same borrow and spend that has gotten us into so much of our economic woes in the first place.
The House measure is far larger than lawmakers envisioned when the stimulus idea surfaced last fall and, as the recession shows signs of worsening, Democrats predict the price tag could grow to nearly $1 trillion before the bill reaches Obama's desk.
The Senate has yet to add their own "wish list" to the bill.
To fathom what "1 trillion" is like, Thomas Sowell put it into these terms: "one trillion seconds ago, humanity still hadn't figured out how to read or write yet."
Hugh Hewitt on his radio program brought attention to a new website, ReadtheStimulus.org, where you can read the entire 334 page bill in pdf format. The site also has a search function, so you can type in keywords and find (or not find) specific passages in the bill; such as a search for whether or not there's any mention of "nuclear power plants" (there isn't any). The site will also update with future versions of the bill, including what comes out of the Senate.
The president-elect is a hoops player. The House proposal amounts to the greatest head fake ever. He had many of us believing that the stimulus package would actually embody a centrist approach, using proven methods of economic growth based in tax cuts and real infrastructure improvements like nuclear power plant construction.
The impacts on the deficit are chronicled by Heritage's Conn Carroll, but the obvious reality is that this is a bill from the far left side of a largely left-leaning House leadership.
Either the president-elect demands it be overhauled in the Senate or we will know in the first month just how far to the left the new president really is on matters domestic. At least then we can put away the idea that he is about transforming politics. Pork and payoffs by any other name are still pork and payoffs.

Obama, Stimulus Proposals Enjoy Broad Backing in Poll
The United States Of Obama
Many of us have been saying the Obama presidency will be dangerous to this country, now even more proof.
First he wants to set up a permanent campaign in which they will pressure other Democrats to obey his wishes:
Organizers and even Republicans say the scope of this permanent campaign structure is unprecedented for a president. People familiar with the plan say Obama's team would use the network in part to pressure lawmakers — particularly wavering Democrats — to help him pass complex legislation on the economy, healthcare and energy.~~~
Though the plan still is emerging, one source with knowledge of the internal discussion said the organization could have an annual budget of $75 million in privately raised funds. Another said it would deploy hundreds of paid staff members — possibly one for every congressional district in certain politically important states and even more in larger battlegrounds such as Florida, Ohio, Colorado, Virginia and North Carolina~~~
Concerns about Obama's ambitions are coming from state party leaders as well as from Capitol Hill.
"The party needs to be rooted not just around one individual, but it needs to have a grass-roots base that can survive the times and even endure past whoever may be in office,†said Jerry Meek, chairman of the North Carolina Democratic Party. "Obama brings a lot to the table, but, on the other hand, state parties exist for more than serving the objectives of the president and are in the business to elect county commissioners, school board members and members of the legislature.â€
Allah puts it well:
What fascinates me is his faith that his supporters, almost all of whom are Democrats, can be counted on to side with him on policy against … other Democrats. There's no reason in principle to believe that's true — Obamites logically should prefer his position on economic recovery to McCain's, but to Chris Dodd's or Barney Frank's? — but it's perfectly sensible if you view Obamamania as a cult of personality with The One as the object in whom all trust is reposed. (See also.) He does a superb job of cultivating it too, from using the paparazzi to enhance his status as an icon to dumping one dopey Lincoln allusion after another on a media that's itching to make the comparison. In theory it's a bad idea to have a party "rooted around†one individual — but The One isn't just any individual, or so we should believe. If Lincoln told you to dial up some Blue Dog Democrat and ask him to vote for another bailout, you'd do it, wouldn't you? Well, there you go.
This cult of personality is just downright creepy. I mean really, the guy is a naive neophyte with hardly any record of accomplishment. How in the world can anyone compare this man to Lincoln, how in the world can anyone fall for this mindnumbing cult?
Just makes me wince at the ignorance in our country.
In what would be another unprecedented step, Obama's political staff is deciding whether to create a service organization that would use the vast corps of its grass-roots campaign supporters. As described by one source knowledgeable with the discussions, this nonprofit arm would be used to help victims of natural disasters, but would do so under the Obama umbrella while continuing to build the overall network's massive e-mail database.
So his own personal FEMA. WTF! A private organization answerable to no one. Scary.

On the heels of the weak wave producing this morning's light rain showers, skies will trend partly sunny in western parts of the area, with mostly cloudy skies to the east and southeast through much of the day.
A new disturbance will rotate through the Ohio Valley late today and this evening, producing a few additional sprinkles, this time, mainly near and north of I-64. Most areas will not see measurable precipitation with this, although 0.01" is not out of the question for a few spots. Here's a look at the GFS forecast for total rainfall for the next 24 hours.
Courtesy: Penn State Univ. Dept. of Meteorology
We'll slowly clear out tonight, and the rest of the workweek will be dry and much brighter, with beautiful but borderline chilly weather on Thursday and Friday. Lows will dip down to 44° tonight, and around 42° on an unseasonably chilly Friday morning.
Here is the 24 hour temperature change from 5 AM Wednesday to 5 AM Thursday, as forecast by the WRF model. We'll certainly notice the big change as cooler air arrives.

I was born and raised in the forgotten borough, Staten Island. I'm 16 years old and love reading, writing, drawing, and sewing things together. If I'm not doing any of these things I'm probably sleeping. When I get older I'll probably go to college or join the army. I was born and raised in Port Richmond, Staten Island. I'm 100% Mexican. My neighborhood has mixed cultures and the streets are run by 20 or more stray cats.
Most people would think that I'm one of those people who loves to read about vampires, magic, and girls who have a secret crush on some childhood friend. But the truth is I don't read those kinds of books, except for Harry Potter, but that's a different story. I love reading books about death, wars, and real life tragic events. My favorite author of all time is Ellen Hopkins. Her books are so real, and when I grow up I want to write books just like she does. Another interesting fact about me is that I love school, and my favorite class is Math. Geometry is my best subject. I enjoy learning because knowledge is the most powerful weapon.

Half My Family Is Illegal
Wednesday, June 15, 2011
Half of Radio Rookie Alicia Martinez's family members are U.S. citizens, the other half are not. Her parents and older sister came to the U.S. illegally before she was born. Alicia knows – from her sister – how hard it is to grow up in the U.S. without legal papers, but she also finds it stressful to be the lucky one: the daughter with all the opportunities. As one of three U.S. citizens in her family, Alicia has struggled to meet her parents' expectations and overcome the guilt she feels that her hardworking sister's life is so limited.

The Mineola Lady Mustangs continued their near-perfect march through the 2010-11 basketball season Friday night, with a decisive thumping of visiting Clarke 47-33 .
The Lady Mustangs (5-0, 11-1 overall, avg 50 ppg), faced a winless team that is going through what its coach describes as "a tough season," cycled all its roster into the game, yet played true to form. They held the Lady Rams several points below their season average of 37 ppg, while nearing their own scoring average.
Facing Clarke was ample opportunity for the Lady Mustangs to expose the depth of their squad with the Medlock sisters Kalie and Kerri as well as Charlotte Renker and guard Kashanti Lawson.
"We have a lot of height and athleticism," coach Denise Zunno said, "and Lawson is one of my strongest players, she leaves her heart out there. But we play like a team."
Meaning by the end of the game, nine players had put points on the board. Kalie Medlock had 14, Renker had nailed 11. Heather Gessner and Krystie Kern had five each, and Christie Joyce contributed two baskets for 4 points. Adding on 2 points each were Lawson, Kerri Medlock, Samantha Venus and Tiffany Klein.
The rebound stats also showed plenty of breadth. Gessner, Kerri and Kalie Medlock led the way with five boards, followed closely by Renker and Lawson, with four.
In the first quarter, Clarke got out of the box quickly with a 3 pointer, hanging tough despite having their pockets picked by the quick handed Mineola team fully 6 times.
In the second, however, the Lady Rams – with only nine players suited up – began to run out of gas. Shot after shot failed to go down, while Mineola went on a 13-2 rampage.
Kalie Medlock and Lawson got things going quickly in the second frame, but it was Renker's night to show that she's got an aggressive instinct to go to the hole. First came a hook shot in the paint that made it 14-10, then, after a 6-0 run, she knocked down a set shot from about ten feet out, following up with a steal on the ensuing play, going end to end for a layup and the culmination of a 13-2 quarter that put the Lady Mustangs in command.
In an attempt to put some juice into the offense, the Lady Rams went to a 3 point game in the third quarter, to little effect, but ended up being outscored 15-5.
By the end of the third, the Lady Mustangs held a 24 point lead, and Zunno began mixing and matching bench players and regulars from her 12 player roster.
"We got everybody in," Mineola head coach Denise Zunno said. "Players who don't have an opportunity gave us some points."
For a full eight minutes, Clarke and Mineola ran the floor with abandon, the margin closing with the Lady Mustangs substituting freely.
"These are tough girls, they keep pushing," Clarke coach Suzanne Mooney said afterwards. "They don't give up. This is a tough season – they want to be a good team and they're getting closer and closer."
Next up for Mineola is a home game on , a team they beat by one point in triple overtime earlier this season.1 2 3 4 F Clarke Lady Rams8 2 5 18 33Mineola Lady Mustangs11 15 15 8 47
