In 2000, as part of a multibillion-dollar courthouse construction initiative, the judiciary requested and the General Services Administration (GSA) proposed building a new courthouse in Los Angeles to increase security, efficiency, and space--but construction never began. About $400 million was appropriated for the L.A. courthouse project. For this testimony, GAO was asked to report on (1) the status of the L.A. courthouse project, (2) challenges GAO has identified affecting federal courthouses nationwide, and (3) the extent to which these challenges are applicable to the L.A. courthouse project. This testimony is based on GAO-10-417 and GAO's other prior work on federal courthouses, during which GAO analyzed courthouse planning and use data, visited courthouses, modeled courtroom sharing scenarios, and interviewed judges, GSA officials, and others. In GAO-10-417, GAO recommended that (1) GSA ensure that new courthouses are constructed within their authorized size or, if not, that congressional committees are notified, (2) the Judicial Conference of the United States retain caseload projections to improve the accuracy of its 10-year-judge planning, and (3) the Conference establish and use courtroom sharing policies based on scheduling and use data. GSA and the judiciary agreed with most of the recommendations, but expressed concerns with GAO's methodology and key findings. GAO continues to believe that its findings were well supported and developed using an appropriate methodology..
GAO reported in 2008 that GSA spent about $33 million on design and site preparations for a new 41-courtroom L.A. courthouse, leaving about $366 million available for construction. However, project delays, unforeseen cost escalation, and low contractor interest had caused GSA to cancel the project in 2006 before any construction took place. GSA later identified other options for housing the L.A. Court, including constructing a smaller new courthouse (36 courtrooms) or using the existing courthouses--the Spring Street Courthouse and the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building and Courthouse. As GAO also reported, the estimated cost of the 36-courthouse option as of 2008 was over $1.1 billion, significantly higher than the current appropriation. The challenges that GAO has identified in recent reports on federal courthouses include increasing rent and extra operating, maintenance, and construction costs stemming from courthouses being built larger than necessary. For example, in 2004, the judiciary requested a $483 million permanent, annual exemption from rent payments to GSA due to difficulties in paying for its increasing rent costs. GAO found in 2006 that these increasing rent costs were primarily due to increases in total courthouse space--and in 2010, GAO reported that more than a quarter of the new space in recently constructed courthouses is unneeded. Specifically, in the 33 federal courthouses completed since 2000, GAO found 3.56 million square feet of excess space. This extra space is a result of (1) courthouses exceeding the congressionally authorized size, (2) the number of judges in the courthouses being overestimated, and (3) not planning for judges to share courtrooms. In total, the extra space GAO identified is equal in square footage to about 9 average-sized courthouses. The estimated cost to construct this extra space, when adjusted to 2010 dollars, is $835 million, and the estimated annual cost to rent, operate and maintain it is $51 million. Each of the challenges GAO identified related to unnecessary space in courthouses completed since 2000 is applicable to the L.A. courthouse project. First, as GAO reported in 2008, GSA designed the L.A. Courthouse with 13 more courtrooms than congressionally authorized. This increase in size led to cost increases and delays. Second, in 2004, GAO found that the proposed courthouse was designed to provide courtrooms to accommodate the judiciary's estimate of 61 district and magistrate judges in the L.A. Court by 2011--which, as of October 2011, exceeds the actual number of such judges by 14. This disparity calls into question the space assumptions on which the original proposals were based. Third, the L.A. court was planning for less courtroom sharing than is possible. While in 2008 the judiciary favored an option proposed by GSA that provided for some sharing by senior judges, according to GAO's 2010 analysis, there is enough unscheduled time in courtrooms for three senior judges to share one courtroom, two magistrate judges to share one courtroom, and three district judges to share two courtrooms. In 2011, the judiciary also approved sharing for bankruptcy judges. Additional courtroom sharing could reduce the number of additional courtrooms needed for the L.A. courthouse, thereby increasing the potential options for housing the L.A. Court.

Valses Sentimentales and Valses Nobles (Schubert)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Valses nobles et sentimentales (Schubert))
Franz Schubert wrote about a hundred waltzes for piano solo. Particularly well known among these are two named collections, the 34 Valses Sentimentales (Op. 50, D. 779) and the 12 Valses Nobles (Op. 77, D. 969).
Composition history and background[edit]
Schubert's piano music was slow in taking its place in the standard repertoire of piano literature. Until the early 20th century his vast piano solo production was often criticized for being salon music.
The Valses Sentimentales were written in 1823, and the Valses Nobles are believed to have been written in 1827, the year before Schubert's death, although the manuscript is undated.

I worked at Mosaic full-time (More than 10 years)
Clients are the best part but little contact if you want career advancement with clients and then it's just another job with mismanagement of resources and priorities.
Very little career advancement and no career path. Poor management. Transition in current structures leaving staff disgruntled and more work put on lower paid staff. Currently cutting lower and middle management structures and hiring VPs. Tenured employees offered uncertain positions then cut. Upper leadership gap and out of touch with direct care needs. No unemployment, no cobra, no matching 403 b. Should not be considered a serious interest for anyone valuing benefits or long term supports from employer.
Advice to Management
Re evaluate hiring strategies for more support and oversite to middle and agency levels. Benefits, career paths, and rewards for employees should not be considered a burden.

Building a Linux-Based High-Performance Compute Cluster
As you enter data on these screens, the installation routine is building a small MySQL database that details all of the component configurations in your cluster. The various tables Linux needs to run (like /etc/hosts) will be generated as an SQL report from this database. If you want to make changes in the system's configuration, the tools that Rocks provides actually change the database first, then run the appropriate reports to regenerate the system configuration files. This significantly reduces the chance for errors to creep into these files. It still is possible to edit the automatically generated system files manually, but remember that the next time you use the Rocks tools to reconfigure the cluster, your manual changes will be overwritten by the automatically generated SQL report versions.
The next screen (Figure 6) allows you to enter information about your cluster. If the cluster will be connected to your enterprise network, you should enter a fully qualified hostname to be consistent with your domain. The cluster name you enter in the Cluster Name field will appear in the management screens during cluster operation. Once you are satisfied with your entries, click Next to go to the configuration of the head node network connection to the private network (eth0).
The next screen (Figure 7) lets you configure the cluster's network. The installation routine automatically selects 10.1.1.1 as the IP address for eth0 on the head node. Because this is a private network, you probably won't need to change this setting. If your public network also happens to be in the 10.1.X.X configuration, change this to something that doesn't conflict with your existing network. Clicking Next brings up the head node public network connection configuration screen.
Figure 8 shows configuring the "public" connection of the head node, its connection to the rest of your systems. The public connection for the head node must be configured with a fixed IP address. The public network for this example is configured as 192.168.0.X with a netmask of 255.255.255.0. Make sure the head node does not conflict with other servers and workstations on the public network. On the following screen (Figure 9), configure the local Gateway and DNS Server IP addresses for the head node to use.
On the next two screens (Figures 10 and 11), enter the root password and configure the time zone and NTP server for the head node.
A Note about Time
All of the systems in the cluster must be synchronized as closely as possible to each other. This is accomplished using the Network Time Protocol (NTP). The head node synchronizes itself with one of the members of the public NTP pool then acts as a local time server through the private network connection to each member of the cluster. If a member of the cluster is slightly slow or fast, the NTP dæmon on that machine will "slew" its clock over a period of time to bring it in line with the rest of the cluster.

a longitudinal vertica'l position (see Figure 5) for various purposes which will be made clear later herein.
As best seen in Figures "1, 2 and 3, the carriage 12ha's freely pivoted wheels'18 for mobility and has the carriage framework 15 to support one :end of the support rod 20, the pivot '22 on the other end of the supportfrod 20, and the horizontal locking member 24. "While they carriage framework 15 may be of various designs, itispreferredto have much of theweight' of the'table assembly '14 carried well back from'the pivot when the table assembly is in the position shown 'in Figure '5 to eliminate tipping of carriage-12. I i
As best seen in Figure '1, a table 26 is rigidly secured through a pair of brackets lZS to a pair of horizontally spaced vertical posts '30.. The support rod 20, the posts .30, and the brackets 28 are included in the supporting frame :of the table assembly 14; Each of these posts 30 is rotatably connected to the su port 20 at reduced diameter po'rti'o'ns az b meansof sleeves 34 which sleeves 34 and vertical 30 have the same external diameter as the external diameter of the unreduced portions. of support rod To hold the table 26 in the horizontal position shown in Figure '1, rotation of sleeves 3'4jabout the reduced portions 32 is releasably prevented by the horizontal portions 36 and- 38 respecof the slieeves34 when the posts 30 are in the position shown in Fig'ure 1. This locking member '24 (see Figures 1 and 2) is secured .to the carriage framework '15 at the end of the carriage farthest from the pivot '22 and extends forward "on one side of the posts 30 to a point above the pivot 22 looping back on the other side of the posts 30 to the xcar-riag'e framework 15. The horizontal portion 36 is raised close to table 26 to give maximum stability while the horizontal portion 38 is lower to permit manipulation and horizontal movement of crank handle 40 for a purpose which will be. made apparent later. To permit the table assembly 14 to be placed in the, side vertical position of Figure 3 after ,it has been slid to the right as viewed in Figure 1, the horizontal locking member 24 is curved downwardly and outwardly at 31 from the horizontal portion 36 on each side of .the. support rod: 20 and .then upwardly and inwardly at 33 to the horizontal portion38 forming a forward sup port 42 (see Figure 1) on each side of the support rod 20.- Likewise, the horizontal locking member 24 on each side of the support rod 20 is turned downwardly and outwardly at 35 from the horizontal portion 38 and connected to the rear of the carriage framework 15 to form a rear support 44 on each side of the support rod 20. When in the position shown in Figure 3, the
posts 30 reston these supports 42 and 44 to prevent the table 26 and the door 16 to be pivoted about the support rod 20 to aid in fitting the door 16 into a doory 7 To secure a door 16 to the table assembly 14 and to move the door vertically wtih respect to the table 26 when in the position shown in Figure there is provided the gripping and elevating assembly 46 (see Figure 4) which includes the pair of parallel door gripping members 48 which are bars each having an upturned jaw 50 on one end in opposed relation to the upturned jaw 50 on the other bar between which the ends of a door 16 are placed and the door' gripped. Preferably the portion of the lower jaw 50 contacting the door is about oneeighth to one-fourth of an inch thick for purposes which will be made more apparent later herein. To move the jaws 50 toward or away from one another for gripping or releasing the door 16 there is provided the. pinion 52 meshing between adjacent racks 53 on each door gripping member 48 so that rotation of the pinion 52 by the crank handle 40 causes the jaws 50 to move toward or away from one another. To cause the door gripping members 48 to move as a unit vertically when the table assembly 14 is in the position shown in Figure 5 and thus elevate or lower the door 16, there is provided a single pinion 54 meshing with a rack 55 on the outside of one door clamping member 48.
The combination gripping and elevating assembly 46 is located on the bottom side of table 26 (see Figures 1 and 5) with the door gripping members 48 being supported by and slidable through the brackets 28. To prohibit longitudinal movement of pinion 54 relative to table 26 so that the door clamping members 48 will move relativeto the table 26 and carry a door 16 with them, the crank handle56 ofpinion 54 is held in position by a bracket '58 secured to the underside of table :26 As pinion 52 and its, crank handle 40 must slide along the'undersurface of table 26 when the door clamping members 48 are moved as a unit by crank handle 56, there is provided a longitudinally slotted plate bracket 60 (see Figure 5) secured to' the underside of table 26 to hold the pinion 52 correctly in place between the racks 53 and permit movement of crank handle 40 along the underside of table 26. Thus, a door 16 may be placed .on the table 26 and clamped in position by turning crank handle 40. Thereafter the table assembly 14 may be pivoted about pivot 22 to the longitudinal vertical position of Figure 5 and the door 16 moved vertically by. rotation of crank handle 56.
Releasably secured to the table 26 are the adjustable guide members 62 best seen in position in Figure 7 which .adjustableguide members 62 are used in determining the correct width of the door 16 and in planing the door edges to obtain the correct width. One such adjustable guide member 62 is placed on each side of the table 26 and cooperates with the edge of the door 16 on that side of the table.
Each adjustable guide member 62 (see Figure 6) includes a straight edge 64 adjustably secured to the under side of table 26 by a pair of slotted bars 66 and a thumbscrew 68 in each slotted bar. When in position, the Straight edges 64 do not reach to the outer edges of the door 16 and are located close to its underside. Releasably secured to each straight edge 64 are a pair of jamb finders 7 0 having a general U-shape to fit around the edge of a door (see Figure 7) including a pair of legs 71 and 72 with leg 72 being the longer and releasably secured to the straight edge 64. On each leg 71 is a jamb finding lip 73 to fit inside a door side jamb 74 (see Figure 7). In leg 72 opposite the jamb finding lip 73 is a scribe slot 76 through which the door 16 may be marked with a pencil to indicate the location of a side jamb 74.
While the jamb finder 70 may be releasably secured to the straight edge 64 by any of several means, preferably the double wedge assembly illustrated in Figure 6 is used which includes a male wedge 77 on each leg 72 and a complementary female wedge 79 on straight edge 64 with the female wedges 79 all opening toward the upper end of door 16 when in a vertical position so there will be no tendency of the male wedge 77 to fall out. With this double wedge assembly the jamb finders 70 may be removed from straight edge 64 while the door 16 is still held between clamp jaws 50 by knocking the male wedges 77 loose from female wedges 79 and sliding the jamb finders 70 along the straight edge 64 until the end of it is reached.
In use, after the door 16 is clamped in place by the door gripping member 48, the adjustable guide members 62 are slid into position so that the jamb finder lips 73 will fit inside of the side door jamb 74, and the door 16 is raised into the longitudinal vertical position against a doorway. The adjustable guide members 62 are slid outwardly until the jamb finder lips are in the position shown in Figure 7 whereupon the adjustable guide members 62 are secured in position by the thumb screw 68 and scribe marks made on the door. 7
As the distance from the scribe slot 76 to the straight edge 64 is always constant, the straight edge 64, after the table is rotated to the position shown in Figure 3 and the jamb finders 70 removed, may be used to guide a power plane 78 (see Figure 8) in cutting the edge of the door 16. To do this an adjustable shoe 80, preferably L-shaped in cross section, is secured to the power plane so that the distance between the bottom of the shoe and the bottom of the cutting portion of the power plane is equal to the distance between the scribe mark and the straight edge 64. Thus, the power plane 78 may be run along the edge of the door 16 until the shoe 80 rests on the straight edge 64 whereupon the desired out has been made.
The jamb finders 70 may also be used to mark excess height of the door 16 in the manner best illustrated in Figure 9 which shows the top of the door 16 held adjacent the top door jamb 82. Before the door 16 is raised into the vertical position a pair of jamb finders 70 are slipped over the top edge of the door 16 and after the door is placed against the doorway the jamb finders 70 are raised by hand until the jamb finder lips 73 strike the top door jamb 82 and the jamb finders 70 are then clamped into position by clamps 84 (see Figure 10). This clamp 84 is preferred as it eliminates marring of the door 16 although other means of securing the jamb finders 70 in position may be used. As best shown in Figure 10, this jamb finder clamp 84 has a cross piece 86 to which are secured a pair of legs 88, on the ends of which legs 88 are cushions 90 bearing against the su fag 9? do r .16- Appt ate y mi w y o h os pieee .8 an r s n therethrough i e Pl n 2 Leute b ser n (not sh n) t l 2 o the i fi de '70.

Thus when the template is placed into the position shown in Figurev 11 it may be secured to door '16 by turning the crank'handle 116 on each of the template clamps 106 so that the template 102 is squeezed against the door 16 between the clamp heads 108 and 112 on each template clamp 106. The preferred construction of the' nonma'r'ring 112 is shown in Figure 14 and has a nonmarring cover such as felt or similar material. 7 a
The saw guide 104 is in the shape of a bar having a straight edge 105 toward and parallel to the line of 10111 of excess door height. It is sl idably secured on the surface of the temp1ate102 such asby the screw clamps 118 projecting through the slots 120 in the template 102. As thus constructed, the saw guide may be slid along the surface of template 102 toward and away from the end of door 16 and held in the desired position by tightening on the screw clamps 118.
In use, the saw guide assembly is placed on door 16 after the excess height of the door has been determined such as by the jamb finders 70 and the door has been placed in a horizontal position. The straight edge 103 on the leading side of template 102 is placed in the position desired such as against jamb finder lips 73 when the jamb finders '70 are used as illustrated in Figure 9 and the template 102 is then locked in position by template clamps 106. The jamb finders 70 are removed fiom the end of door 16 and thereafter a power saw 124 is used as illustrated in Figure 12 by adjusting the saw guide 104 so that the base plate 126 of the power saw 124 bears against the straight edge 105 of the saw guide 104 and places the cutting blade 128 of the power saw 124 at the place of the desired cut. Once the saw guide 104 is locked in position, the power saw 124 may be slid along the top surface of template 102 as the template clamp heads 108 are recessed from this surface. As the straight edge 105 of the saw guide 104 is parallel to the straight edge 103 of the template 102 the blade 128 will then make the correct cuts so long as the operator holds the ibaseelate 12 of ppwters w 124 agai s w snide 1.0 As t e mentor probably use the sa e Power saw {124 tor several he can preset ,the saw guide 104 at the adesired position on-the temp a e 10.2 a d t us the correct .cut'will be made without further adjustment .of tbesaw guide-104.

If {the doors :16 are stacked, as is .common, the table assembly 14 may be raised to the: longitudinal vertical position of Figure 5 and the lower-jaw 50 placed at floor level y man pu ation of cr nk handle 56. This lower jaw 50 may be moved nnder the-stacked door 1.6 by t e carriage forward and thereafter the door 16 is .clamped .onto the table assembly-14 by rotation of crank handle 40. The table assembly 14 is then lowered into the horizontal position of Figure 1 where the adjustable guide members .62 are slid inwardly toward the lon- =edges of the door 16 so that the jamb finder lips 73 will go inside of the side doorjamb s 74 when the is raised to a vertic l Posi on. Ad i i n lly, a pair of jamb finders 70 are placed over the upper end of the door. Thereafter the entire adjustable door jack table 10 is moved .on wheels 18 to the desired position and the table assembly 14is raised to the vertical position (Fig- ,ure 5) so the door 16 is held adjacent the doorway in vertical position. It is to be noted that because the sleeves 3.4- permit pivoting of the door 16 about the support -rod zl) that this adjustable door jack table 10 may-he used innarrow spaces such as hallways where the worl space is inSufiicient to permit the carriage 12 to be placed at right angles to the doorway.
the door 16 has been placed in a vertical position adja ent the doorway, the adjustable guide member .62 on .each edge of the door is slid outwardly until the jamb finder H9873 Strike the side door jambs 74 (see Fig. 7) where the adjustable guide members 62 are locked in position. by the thumbscrews 68. With the bottom of door adjusted to the right height from the floor by the rotation of the crank handle 56 the jamb finders 70 on the upper end of the door are slid upwardly to the position hown in Figure 9 so that the jamb finder lips 73 mark the upper jamb-82 of the doorway and such jamb finders-70 are then clamped in position by clamps 84. table assembly 14 is lowered to and locked in t ho izontal p o gure 1,)-
The jamb finders 70 secured to the straight edges 64 may then be knocked out along the length of the straight edges 64 and the door '16 turned to the side vertical position of Figure 3 where the upper edge is trimmed the desired amount such as by the power plane 78 (Figure 8) with the straight edge 64 guiding and limiting the amount of the cut. Thereafter the table 16 may be turned to the opposite side vertical position for similar trimming of the other edge.
The table is then locked in the horizontal position of Figure l, the template 102 is placed with its straight edge 103 against the jamb finder lips 73 on the upper end of the door 16 and secured there by clamps 106, and the jamb finders "70 removed from the end of the door. If made necessary by the configuration of power saw 124 or otherwise the clamp jaw 50 nearest that end of the door 16 may be moved out of the way by crank handle 40. A cut is then made along the end of the door cutting off the excess height by placing power saw 124 on the template 102 with the path of the power saw 124 being guided by its base plate 126 bearing against the previously set saw guide 104.
The saw guide assembly may be removed, the door 16 secured by door gripping members 48, and the door 16 then raised to the vertical position again to check the fit. Thereafter the door 16 is lowered to the horizontal position and hinges placed on it. The door 16 is again raised to the vertical position, fitted in the doorway, and while held inposition by the adjustable door jack table 10 has its hinges secured in the doorway. Crank handle 40 is the'nturned releasing the jaw 50 from the door 16 and the adjustable door jack table 10 is moved away. Because of the thinness of the lower jaw'50 it will permit the door 16 to-be hung on its hingeswith no more than normal clearance at the 'floor. The'upper jaw 50 need not be so thin as thedoor't16 is held in position for seof the carriage 12, the manner of locking the table 26 in a horizontal position, the jamb finder clamps 84, the template clamps 106 and the like. Accordingly, it is desired to be limited only by the spirit of the invention as defined by'the scope of the appended claims.

I want a logo for my company Hetland Media. The url to the webpage is [url removed, login to view]
I am a lighting technician, and I am providing scenes with light. So now you have a tiny idea of what the logo should look like.
I have not decided any colors or shape of the logo. The logo should fit the design on the page. Maybe you should have a picture of a par can, or something with my job to do?
The background should be transparent. I would love a vector logo. The name of the company should also be fitted into this logo somehow. The name is Hetland Media.
I am very open minded about how the logo should look like. Also, I don't have very much money, and I hope $30 is enough for the job.
Important information about your contributions:
You might be able to see your logo at our web pages for short times. We just want to see how the logo looks like on our web page, and how it fits with the design we have. I am not able to do this locally, and I must therefore test it directly on the web page. I do hope this is ok for everyone.
Thank you!

DEAR BRUCE: Thank you for your column on time shares. My husband and I thought we were immune to buying such a thing, but we were convinced to buy one in Mexico a couple of years ago. The ownership has some sort of corporate entity in San Diego, so it is not entirely a foreign-owned corporation. We have used it a bit, so are not too unhappy that we have it, but it lasts another 20 years or more (every-other-year occupancy).
Time shares can be included in a will -- or not
We have three children who will share in our estate, but I wonder what will happen if they collectively refuse to pay the maintenance fees? Are heirs ever taken to court for nonpayment? We hadn't thought to mention the time share in our wills. Would mentioning it (or not mentioning it) in a will be a way to dispose of it? It is not something they will compete over! -- A.K., Beverly Hills, Fla.
DEAR A.K.: I am unhappy for you to the extent that, like a lot of people, you went to a pitch and weren't as immune as you thought. At least you've enjoyed your time share for a while.
You would find it next to impossible to sell your time share. That's just the way it is. There are companies that specialize in selling them, but most, if not all, want money upfront, which I would never agree to pay.
You can leave the time share, depending on how it is established, to someone in your will. However, if your children have no interest in it, don't leave it to them.
Even if you were to leave the time share to them, be assured that the children cannot be compelled to accept the legacy. The attorney handling the estate can show them how to decline it. You should consult your attorney about whether your estate can or would be assessed for the time-share fees after your death.
DEAR BRUCE: I am a recent reader, so I don't know if you have answered my question before.
The few articles I have read on how to invest never include gold. I have been a "gold bug" for years and finally saw an opening to get back into that market when gold was just under $300.
When I suggest to my friends that they buy gold, the usual response is that it pays no dividend. Considering the huge gains in these last years, it seems you could buy gold coins and sell them at a profit, thereby making what would be considered your "dividend" at a far greater return than is now available.

The skin surrounding the ears is especially sensitive, so getting a tattoo on this part of the body can be painful. A tattoo behind the ear can also hurt because there is a minimal amount of fat in this area.Know More
A tattoo artist can apply numbing cream to the area before inking the tattoo. However, this precaution does not take the pain away completely. Since the area behind the ear is small, the tattoo is also quite tiny, which means the pain does not last for very long. This spot on the body is ideal for people who do not want the tattoo to show all the time.Learn more about Tattoos
Foot tattoos tend to hurt more intensely than tattoos on other locations of the body, because feet have less muscle than the rest of the body, explains Whole Addiction Tattoo. Tattoos hurt more in areas where bones and tendons are near the surface of the skin, such as the foot.Full Answer >

Windows Internet Explorer 7 MUI Pack
editor's review
Windows Internet Explorer 7 MUI Pack consists of a collection of language resource files that can be added to IE 7 in order to ease web tasks for non-English speakers.
The pack addresses a large audience, consisting of both home users, as well as organizations that prefer to work with a browser interface displayed in their native language, resulting in an improved workflow.
On the other hand, this solution comes in extremely handy for development projects, as client requests might be bent on a particular language.
Although Microsoft provides separate language files for Internet Explorer, these make quite the short list compared to the array provided by the MUI Pack.
What's more, having such a complete set of languages deployed on the system may turn out to be a wiser choice, especially for large companies that target a multi-language audience.
The compatibility of the pack is limited to Windows XP (Media Center and SP 2) or Windows Server 2003 with Internet Explorer 7 installed (in English). Any other combination of operating systems with a different version of IE will turn out to be unsuccessful.
Deployment is a step-by-step process that ends in a couple of minutes and requires a restart in order to take effect. What might seem unusual is the fact that the pack will install all the supported languages automatically, failing to offer an option to select only the languages of interest.
This, however, can be looked at from a positive angle: the more, the merrier – you never know when you'll need them. In order to set one of the languages as default, you can navigate to the 'Internet Options' windows and then to the 'Languages' section. From here, you will be able to seamlessly add and remove languages from the provided list.
An unequaled advantage is that the pack makes it possible for users of different languages to share the same workstation, without having to use multiple Windows accounts. It's all accomplishable from within Internet Explorer 7 itself.
As a conclusion, Windows Internet Explorer 7 MUI Pack is a must have, providing a compact set of over thirty language files, that users can switch between seamlessly.

These days, a diet sans gluten can seem like a fancy accessory–like a Birkin bag for the body, despite the fact that loads of people actually cannot consume gluten for health purposes. Having to restrict your diet due to allergies can feel pretty isolating, so it's nice to know that even the rich and the famous have wheat allergies or Celiac Disease too. More
ast night, ELLE's Annual Women in Television Celebration was held at Sunset Tower in West Hollywood. The event recognizes women who are making it work on TV, so tons of your (or our, at least) favorite famous human beings were there. From Zooey Deschanel and Malin Akerman to Joel McHale and Emmy Rossum, the lineup was pretty excellent. More
WHY? More
In addition to the Hollywood Film Awards, last night saw Elle's annual Women in Hollywood bash–which was similarly star studded. In fact, it seemed that all the famous people who weren't on the Hollywood Film Awards red carpet turned up at the Elle party. Check out Reese Witherspoon, Marion Cotillard, Melissa McCarthy and way more on the red carpet–as well as the return of Lea Michele. More
Celebrities love fashion week. Not just because they get wined and dined, sit front row, skip all the lines and leave loaded down with freebies–but because they get press, for the simple act of wearing clothes. Their outfits don't have to be inventive, interesting or even stylish–if they're famous and anywhere within a stone's throw of Linc Center or Milk, they'll get photographed. For dayz.
And we'll contribute to the problem! More
Last night saw the 2013 Critics' Choice Awards–and the attendant red carpet. Some swings and misses here, featuring looks from Diane Kruger, Emmy Rossum, Aubrey Plaza, Lizzy Caplan, Elisabeth Moss and more. More
Anyone familiar with The Gloss' fashion coverage knows our opinion of music awards show red carpets: they are uniformly the worst.
…The thing about last night's 2013 Billboard Music Awards? They were a different dimension of the worst. Every look was a jumble of ill-conceived ideas and bad planning.
Get ready for a few glorious pages of horrible to sublimely ridiculous red carpet moments, all in one place. Happy Monday! More
Last night was the Jeffrey Fashion Cares 10th Anniversary Celebration, an event that benefitted multiple nonprofit organizations that help improve the lives of those diagnosed with HIV/AIDS, as well as people in the LGBTQ community.

Every year the Oscars take place and every year so does the Vanity Fair Oscar party. Half of Hollywood shows up to the glitzy bash–often in better dresses than the ones they wore on the red carpet. More
Apparently, famous people looking to accessorize are now turning their mightily coiffed heads towards velvet chokers. More
When you start the day off with something as unabashedly wonderful as "breakfast cocktails," it's pretty much a given that things can only go downhill from there.

WWE Diva Wrestles Her First Match Since September 2013, Possible Diva Returns on RAW
by Amish Patel - March 15, 2014
– WWE Diva Layla made her return to the ring at Friday night's live event in Waco, Texas. She teamed with Alicia Fox and lost to the team of Eva Marie and Natalya when Fox tapped out.
This was Layla's first match since the September 23rd, 2013 RAW. It's been reported that she was given time off due to personal reasons and health reasons. At one point, PWInsider reported that some people within WWE believed she may never wrestle again.
This sets up two potential Diva returns for Monday's RAW with Layla and Naomi.

If a recent survey commissioned by the Citizens United Political Victory Fund is any indication, Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) will have to double his current polling numbers with Arizona Republicans if he hopes to hang on to his Senate seat in the 2016 election cycle.
Released Monday by Republican pollster Kellyanne Conway, the poll shows only 29.3 percent of the likely voters in the GOP primary would vote for McCain, while an overwhelming 64.2 percent would vote for an unnamed "new person."
From the summary:
Arizona Senator John McCain confronts a very challenging primary landscape should he decide to run for a sixth term in 2016. Although his job approval-disapproval rating among Republicans statewide is evenly split, and his image is slightly underwater (47.7% favorable, 51.4% unfavorable), it is the fact that Republican Primary voters in Arizona are over twice as likely to elect "a new person" (64.2%) than they are to re-elect McCain (29.3%) that spells trouble.
… This is not simply "trouble with the Tea Party" or "far-right angst." Senator McCain struggles at various levels with Republicans across the ideological spectrum, as shown in the Appendix (Tea Party Republicans, Strong Republicans, Not-so-strong Republicans and Independents).
Not only does McCain fare poorly against a hypothetical unnamed opponent, but he also can't beat named opponents pitted against him in the Citizens United poll. According to the results, current Republican Governor Jan Brewer would beat him (47.7 percent to 29 percent), Arizona District 5 Representative Matt Salmon would beat him (48.2 percent to 30.3 percent) and current Arizona Congressman David Schweikert would beat him (40.1 percent to 33.9 percent).
"Heading into 2016, Senator McCain will have the normal trappings of a Senator who has been in the United States Senate for 30 years, e.g., solid funding and the power of incumbency and in his case, the unique service to our nation of a war veteran," the summary observes. "Still, to fellow Republicans in his own state, that incumbency seems to cut both ways, and currently, appears to be a liability."
When his present Senate term — his fifth — expires in 2016, McCain will be 80 years old. The Senator held a fundraiser late last year in New York City, inviting guests to the St. Regis Hotel to lend their financial support "as I consider running for re-election to the US Senate."

So, I've been feeling bad because I don't spend near as much time with my 9 yo DD since DS was born. She doesn't have school today, so took the day off of work and put DS in daycare, and she and I are going to Des Moines for a day of shopping.
However, I do feel guilty for leaving DS. I will miss him the whole day. I have to remember though, that if I wasn't doing this, I'd be at work, so he'd be at daycare anyway. And DD is going to her fathers this weekend, so it will be just he and I the whole weekend.
Should I feel guilty? :(

And earlier this month Heineken bought half of Lagunitas, then the company which makes Budweiser acquired something called Golden Road, and just under three years prior to that Emerson's was subsumed within Lion.1 Meanwhile: Russia re-annexed Crimea, Pixar has so far spent a decade in the belly of Disney, India smack-merged with the Eurasian Plate fifty-million-or-so years back and (geologically speaking) threw up the Himalayas, and in four billion years our galaxy will non-violently combine with Andromeda and send countless millions of worlds swirling into new orbits until something else supermassive comes along ― plus ça change plus c'est la même chose.
The details, ultimately, don't hugely concern me.2 It's all very much business as usual and the same old ebb and flow that's been going on for yonks. It'd be PhD-level economics to figure out if it's 'ultimately' been good or bad for consumer choice, and I suspect the answer is somewhere in the vicinity of "a little of both, from place to place and time to time, and basically a wash in the end". As for the latest pair of newsworthy sellers and buyers, I have fond memories of Mountain Goat (but no real ongoing adoration) and Asahi are just another conglom (but aren't on my boycott list since their machinations don't seem anything beyond par for the course)3 ― so my reaction was a combination of a quiet huh, an eyebrow-raise, and a lazy shrug.4
For now, I just want to note that you don't have to "wait and see" with these things. It is perfectly okay to decide that you'll never again buy a Mountain Goat beer, just as it was totally legitimate for Hashigo Zake to stop buying Emerson's as soon as the sale contract was signed. They were wrongly criticised for a "knee-jerk reaction" and encountered a strange kind of meta-snobbery that accused them of being pretentious when they were just pretty-obviously following a long-stated principle of only stocking "independent" beer, which Emerson's suddenly wasn't. If you care about ownership, you can make your decision on the day you learn about a change in ownership ― indeed, it'd be weird if you didn't. People blindly predicting that the beer will be ruined are exactly as wrong as people dogmatically insisting that it's (only) the flavour in the glass that counts. Ownership and scale don't logically or historically correlate with quality and any number of buyouts have seen it improve5 ― but other things are relevant, if you want them to be.6 I'm not personally an absolutist on this, but you can have your own priorities. The pile of possible factors-to-consider is vast and includes regional origin, aesthetics, price, the people involved, the tenor of their marketing, and of course ownership and taste. Do with them (all!) what you will.
And yes, making buying decisions based on corporate ownership will always be fraught with tensions if not outright contradictions ― as Rob Ruminski succinctly pointed out ― but that's just the way of it. Moral purity is probably impossible in the messy world of modern capitalism, but you set your own threshold and tolerance and you do your best.7 The hard part, most of the time, is actually learning the facts about these matters given how hard many companies work to obfuscate their origins. Here, there's an announcement and everything. So it's fine to react to that, as-is.
