True State Dependence In Monthly Welfare Participation:A Nonexperimental Analysis
This paper provides an empirical evaluation of true state dependence in welfare participation using unique administrative data from California that is measured at the monthly frequency, which coincides with the welfare eligibility period and so is free of time aggregation bias. The analysis uses first- and second-order dynamic conditional logit models that non-parametrically control for permanent unobserved heterogeneity to test for state dependence in welfare behavior. The second-order model also absorbs individual-specific first-order Markov chains, and provides a more robust test for state dependence in high frequency data. The results using the first-order model show substantial first-order state dependence in monthly welfare participation. Absorbing heterogeneous first-order effects, the hypothesis of no second-order state dependence is also easily rejected. This suggests that past welfare participation predicts future participation, given unrestricted effects of both the present state and unobserved heterogeneity, and provides substantive evidence of duration dependence at the individual level.

The legal blow in Europe that removed "Safe Harbor" protection of cross-border data transfers from US tech firms on Tuesday has thrust them into rough water. The ruling Tuesday by Europe's top court, invalidating the 15 year old Safe Harbor agreement, means that some 4,000 Internet companies ranging from giants such as Apple, Facebook, and Google to startups just getting their sea legs can no longer legally transfer user data from Europe to the United States.
SURDA, West Bank (AP) — A new generation of angry, disillusioned Palestinians is driving the current wave of clashes with Israeli forces: Too young to remember the hardships of life during Israel's clampdown on the last major uprising, they have lost faith in statehood through negotiations, distrust their political leaders and believe Israel only understands force.

…As IGP warns against abuse of human rights
From EMMANUEL UZOR, Onitsha
The Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Mohammed Abubakar yesterday made his first official visit to Anambra State where he received 53 operational vehicles from Governor Peter Obi. Speaking during a courtesy call on the governor at the Governor's Lodge, Abubakar commended the state government's partnership with the police to restore security in the state.
The police boss expressed satisfaction with the performance of the policemen in the state, adding that the collaborative efforts of the state Governor, Mr. Peter Obi and the Police Commissioner, Mr. Balla Nasarawa, contributed to such great feat. "It is no longer news that Anambra State is one of the states that security and stability have been greatly achieved because of the active nature of Anambra State police command and the state government.
Today there is improved security and stability in the state." He further warned the state police command against constant abuse of human rights and molestation of citizens in various police stations across the state and told the governor that as part of efforts to increase police presence in the state, 500 personnel had been posted to the state. Responding, Governor Obi said the decision to purchase 53 operational police vehicles for the police was informed by his resolve to make the state security stable.
"I earlier mentioned in my New Year broadcast that security of lives and property remained our number one priority in 2013. We believe we cannot deliver our vision even with aggressive Anambra Integrated Development Strategy (ANIDS), in an atmosphere of insecurity." Obi further said, "in the light of the above, we are here today to deliver some security vehicles to the police. They include three armoured personnel carrier pick-up vehicles and 50 patrol vehicles fitted with communication gadgets."
The governor also urged the IGP to increase number of police ar.3ea commands in the state to cover Ekwulobia, Umunze and Onitsha as well as more police stations to enable the police tackle the challenges of insecurity.

YORK, ENGLAND—A church dating to the Victorian era and possibly back to the medieval period has been uncovered in King's Square, York, which is being refurbished. "Over the next couple of weeks the archaeologists will clean and record the remains of the church and remove any burials that might be affected by the resurfacing works," said archaeologist John Oxley for the City of York Council.

Time Warner Cable Also Talking to Dodgers About TV Deal
Source confirms talks as team is expected to make a final proposal on Fox Sports' $6 billion, 25-year contract to broadcast its games.
Time Warner Cable has joined the discussions with the Los Angeles Dodgers about the television rights that become available after the 2013 season, according to a source.
The talks with TWC this week, first reported by the Los Angeles Times, come as Fox Sports continues its negotiations on a complicated 25-year, $6 billion-plus deal.
Under terms of the current contract, the Dodgers are expected to make a final proposal to Fox's take-it-or-leave-it offer as early as Friday. Fox then has 30 days to respond.
THR COVER: The New-Look Dodgers Say 'We Owe Fans a Winner'
Fox's exclusive negotiating period with the Dodgers on Nov. 30, but talks have continued over what is described by insiders as a very complex deal. It includes not only a record amount of money for regional sports rights but also the possibility of the Dodgers and their new owners getting an equity stake in an existing or new cable TV channel. Fox's Prime Ticket reportedly is the channel being discussed.
TWC launched two sports channels in October, one in English and one in Spanish, that now exclusively carry the L.A. Lakers telecasts. However, under that $3 billion deal, the Lakers have no ownership stake in the channels -- and with that precedent, it would be difficult for TWC to offer that kind of money, as well as equity, to the Dodgers.
Of course, TWC could launch another channel dedicated to the Dodgers. Or the team could choose to launch its own channel and then license the rights to Fox, TWC or another TV distributor such as NBC, ESPN or CBS.
ANALYSIS: How the Dodgers TV Rights Could Generate $8.5 Billion
A spokesperson for Time Warner Cable said the company had no comment. A spokesperson for Guggenheim Partners, which paid most of the $2.15 billion the team sold for this year, had no comment Thursday and did not respond to a request for comment Friday.
A spokesman for Fox Sports on Thursday said the company had nothing to say and Friday did not respond to a request for comment on TWC joining the discussions.
The Hollywood Reporter's parent company, Prometheus Global Media, also is majority owned by Guggenheim.

You'd think a country celebrating its 237th birthday would have some basic facts about its history and geography nailed down.
But a recent dust-up between Connecticut and North Carolina about who first flew an airplane shows there are still a number of juicy historical debates within the American family to chew over along with the hot dogs and sweet corn this Fourth of July.
Big questions — What caused the Civil War? Did Lee Harvey Oswald act alone? Who really invented baseball? — naturally generate vast reams of historical argument, but even smaller matters of simple fact can spark controversy, from where the president on the $20 bill was actually born to which state can claim to be the birthplace of one of the country's two major political parties.
SEE ALSO: Demand for fireworks a booming business year-round
The most recent dispute takes on two icons in the pantheon of American tinkerers — Orville and Wilbur Wright.
Connecticut Gov. Dannel P. Malloy stirred up a historical hornet's next late last month, endorsing a drive by state lawmakers that rejects the long-standing narrative that the Wright brothers were the first to fly a heavier-than-air powered aircraft in 1903, contending the first flight actually took place two years earlier in the Nutmeg State, not over the dunes of Kitty Hawk, N.C.
The governor on June 25 signed into law a measure rejecting the Wright brothers' claim, citing new evidence published in March by Australian historian John Brown. Mr. Brown contends the credit belongs to German immigrant Gustave Whitehead, who allegedly flew on Aug. 14, 1901 in Bridgeport, Conn. — two years before the Wright brothers' 1903 flight.
Mr. Brown's brief includes a blurry photograph of Whitehead's 1901 flight, enlarged by 3,500 percent, and numerous old newspaper accounts of the event. He published everything on the website gustave-whitehead.com.
"This is clear and convincing evidence," Mr. Brown said. "If this was a court case about a crime committed in D.C. and you had 17 witnesses, 14 of them state under oath that they saw it happen, and there was a video surveillance camera with a blurred image, there's no court anywhere that wouldn't convict them."
Mr. Brown's claims have been endorsed by Paul Jackson, the editor-in-chief of the authoritative Jane's All the World's Aircraft. "The Wrights were right; but Whitehead was ahead," wrote Mr. Jackson in the foreword of the 100th edition of Jane's.
"Our license plate should say, 'Firster in Flight,'" said Bridgeport Mayor Bill Finch — a dig on North Carolina's license plates, which are proudly stamped with "First in Flight."
Mr. Brown pointed to a contract between the Smithsonian and the Wright brothers that required the Smithsonian to recognize the Wright brothers as first in flight in order to obtain the Wright's plane in 1948.
But Tom Crouch, senior aeronautics curator for the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum, said the contract was necessary and logical because of conflicting "first in flight" claims back then from other aviators.
"I don't regard it as binding. … If I ever thought there was evidence that somebody had made a significant sustained power-controlled flight before the Wright brothers, I'd say so," Mr. Crouch said. "But that hasn't happened yet, and Whitehead doesn't even come close."
Mr. Crouch said Mr. Whitehead continued to build flying machines after 1901, but not one of them ever left the ground.
"What, did he forget how to fly?" Mr. Crouch said. "When you look at the details of the Whitehead claims, I think it falls apart like a house of cards."

AT&T Inc, the No.2 US telecom company, said it expected double-digit consolidated revenue growth for the rest of 2015.
The company helped the spy agency in a broad range of classified activities, a newspaper reported.
It is "the first step of what's to come," said Brad Bentley, AT&T's chief marketing officer for entertainment and Internet services.
The unanimous vote came after months of T-Mobile's lobbying for stricter limits for AT&T Inc's and Verizon Inc's participation in auction.
AT&T Inc may take a charge estimated at $1.1 billion related to DirecTV's Venezuela assets, the company disclosed Friday in a US regulatory filing.

I replaced an existing 24" wall oven so installation was fairly straigtforward. The oven works great including the self cleaning feature. Front panel is attractive and controls are logically arranged with the expected features like set temperature, clock, and timer. Biggest disadvantage for me was cost. Although I caught this unit on sale, wall ovens still seem to be far more expensive than conventional floor standing oven/range combo units. But changing over would have required considerable kitchen remodeling so I opted to stay with the wall type. No regrets. I would recommend this oven to others needing a wall type oven.

I HATE this oven. Heats unevenly and I have to check on the food pretty often to make sure that it isn't burning. Almost everything I make in it burns, even though I set the temp at least 10 deg, if not more, less than I usually would. I had to recalibrate the temperature because it would always be hotter than the set temp. I roast my own peanuts - today I decided to make two bags. Put first batch in at the recommended temp and time. Came out a bit darker than I like. Second batch (for less time than the first) came out darker still on the left side and burnt to inedible on the right side. If it wasn't so expensive, I would get rid of it and buy another brand.

Reliable and stylish
By None

We replaced a 30 year old oven that finally quit working. We wanted to replace it with a modern look. My parents and my wife's parents always had Whirlpool. We had recently replaced our 12 year old GE dishwasher with a Whirlpool dishwasher and certainly liked how it looked and operation. Now we have matching appliances and are very satisfied.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I bought this about a month and have had it installed about two weeks ago and I truly love the oven and would recommend it. So far everything I have baked in it has turned out very well.

By Busy Lizzie

I really enjoy the sleek look of this world pool wall oven. It looks great in my country style kitchen! So far, it seems to bake evenly. It also lets you know how long it will take to preheat the oven. The digital panel controls are easy to use. The oven is also well lit when the oven door is open or when you turn on the oven light. I especially like the size of the digital time and temperature display. So far,so good!
A good product
By Delores
from Indianapolis, IN
This oven was a replacement for one I bought years ago that was damaged in a file. I was very happy with the previous oven and specified that I wanted it replaced with another Whirlpool because I had had such good service from the other one. It was a fixture in my kitchen and had baked my husband's prize-winning, family favorite pound cake for many years. It was part of his legacy. He died two years ago and it seemed fitting that the oven "died" as well. I am now embarked on a new beginning with a new Whirlpool creating my own legacies of favorite recipes.
Not happy with whole experience
By Mary Anna

Took our measurements to the dealer, who only looked at one dimension and sold us a smaller oven than would have fit into our hole. This oven is SMALL, had to throw out some of my cookie sheets. The oven fan is loud, and continues to blow after the oven is turned off. I don't have an open concept kitchen and can hear it in our living room Sure, they say we could return it, but who is going to pull out an installed wall oven to return - the dealer did not offer to pick it up. I am sorry we bought it.

So far so good. We had the oven installed in the wall to replace a wall oven we've had for over 40 years. That oven was also a Whirlpool. Hope this one lasts that long but I will never know. The only thing different is that it takes longer to preheat but that is part of the Temperature Management System by Whirlpool. Seems to cook very evenly when I roasted my almonds.
What does this mean?

I had to pay for a self clean oven even though I will never use it because the last whirlpool oven blew up the control panel when I used self clean. Why don't you make an oven without it??? It was only one to fit in oven opening. Also, the oven temp runs 20 degrees too hot.
24 inch single wall oven

Made a wise choice since I only had space for a 24 inch oven. The other models lacked oven space and the quality was an issue.I use my oven constantly.....wish me luck?

Please Remake These Horror Movies
Sometimes a great idea is cursed with poor execution. Here 11 horror movies that we feel should get remakes.
Sometimes a great idea is cursed with poor execution. Here 11 horror movies that we feel should get remakes.
We're focusing on 10 of the best American gangster films not made by either of those legendary directors, Scorsese and Coppola. Capisce?
Sometimes in my younger days, my friends from college and I would sit on the porch and talk the evening away. You'd often get into some interesting topics that required a bit of imagination.
Just a couple of days ago Marvel claimed dates for five untitled films between 2017 and 2019, but they're not done yet. On the eve of Comic-Con 2014, Marvel has announced yet another release date for yet another untitled mystery movie -- but we have a feeling we'll be hearing a lot more about these untitled projects this week.
The Toronto International Film Festival is considered by many critics and movie fans to be the best in the world, and the list of titles announced for this year's fest is compelling evidence that this is true. In addition to the star-studded gala premieres, the festival is hosting all kinds of fascinating films that you're going to want to keep an eye on.
Earlier this week, Marvel announced their schedule through 2019 and it included...well, a lot of dates. So far, there are few titles actually announced, but Marvel president Kevin Feige at least has hinted at what we can expect by revealing that each year, for the next five years, will have one sequel and one original film...
Focus Features announced today that the latest installment of the 'Insidious' franchise, 'Insidious 3,' has officially commenced with production. However, while cast members Lin Shaye, Angus Sampson and Mr. Whannell are reprising their roles from the previous films, this next chapter is not a continuation -- it's a prequel!
Ali Lohan, the younger singer of headline-friendly actress Lindsay Lohan, is apparently the latest to jump on the country music bandwagon.
Despite three very different new challengers, 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' continued to rule over the box office this weekend. This doesn't spell disaster for the newcomers, but it does spell further success for the sequel to 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes,' which is riding extremely positive word of mouth to a big box office tally.
In its current form, 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' concludes on a dark and downbeat note, setting up a future film while placing its major characters on a desperate new path. But the original ending was even darker and now we have a glimpse at that footage and a look at what could have been.
Spoilers for 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' begin here, so proceed at your own peril!

BUCHAREST, ROMANIA - SEPTEMBER 22: Andreas Seppi of Italy in action against Ruban Ramirez Hidalgo of Spain during Round One of the BCR Open Romania at the BNR Arena on September 22, 2009 in Bucharest, Romania. (Photo by Christopher Lee/Getty Images)
Italy tied Croatia 1-1 in the first round of the Davis Cup on Friday after Andreas Seppi beat Ivan Dodig 6-2, 6-7 (2), 6-4, 6-4. In the opening singles on red clay, Marin Cilic of Croatia rallied past Paolo Lorenzi 6-1, 6-7 (6), 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 in 3 hours, 43 minutes. Lorenzi was a late replacement for flu-ridden Fabio Fognini. Saturday's doubles in the best-of-five series pits Italy's Simone Bolelli and Lorenzi against Mate Pavic and Nikola Mektic. Seppi is ranked a career-high No. 18 after reaching the fourth round of the Australian Open. Italy is looking to win its first World Group series since 1998, when it finished runner-up. Croatia won the Davis Cup in 2005. The winner faces Spain or Canada in the quarterfinals.

Thankyou so much for making my lifelong dream of owning an incredible dog come true!
James Pregnell, who will be joined by colleagues Gabriel Gnavi and Jeremy Thornett, will walk 30 kilometres with 30 of our dogs in a bid to raise much needed funds to help us continue our rescue and re-homing work. This is the sixth time we've held this annual fundraiser and the support we receive each year is amazing and helps us to rescue and care for many hundreds of dogs throughout the rest of the year.
Thought it was about time to give you another update, but this time including Roxy (Taffy). It's been almost 18 months since we brought Jack (Hamish) into our home and it's now been 12 months since Roxy joined the party.
We've only had her three weeks ... and thank you so much for Gillie ... she is too good to be true. We have discovered bit by bit how well trained she is - she sits, shakes paws, stays, has been fine off leash for short runs and we discovered today she won't take her food until you tell her! Unbelievable.
Just a quick update, we are both very happy in our homes. We are dearly loved and spoilt and we are enjoying all the home comforts that our owners enjoy. May all our doggie friends find good homes especially in the winter months as we don't like getting our paws wet and the thunder is quite daunting.
Thank you so much for landing us with our cheeky boy! We have had Cisco since February last year and even though his ability to chew up every bed we throw at him, we love him to bits!!!
I thought it was time to send an update on our beautiful Staffy X Britt. We adopted Britt in May 2010 and have never regretted it. When we first met Britt she was about 15 months old, and staff at the refuge told us she was extremely depressed as her litter of pups had just died and she was not happy in the refuge environment.
I just wanted to give you an update on one of your adopted friends! Pippa, or Peppa has she was known in the short time spent with you all at Shenton Park, has settled into her new life wonderfully!
Internationally acclaimed artists, Gillie and Marc Schattner, not only love to paint dogs in their works of art but also love to support pooches in need. To support our Hounds Housewarming Appeal, Gille and Marc have donated a fantastic piece titled 'Sometimes you just have to say what the hell' which will go up for auction at the upcoming Quiz Night on Saturday, 9th June.
We adopted Oakley in November at 7 months old, making this Sunday his (our best guess) birthday!

Travel Resource Center
Booking your trip is just the beginning
At AAA we know that planning and preparation can be the difference between a dream vacation and a travel nightmare. Whether you book with one of our knowledgeable AAA Travel professionals or at AAA.com, the Travel Resource Center will provide you with all the information you need to make your next vacation go smoothly.
To have a AAA Travel professional help you plan your perfect vacation, call toll-free 1-888-870-9408 or stop by your local AAA office.
U.S. citizens are required to carry a valid U.S. Passport when leaving or entering the country including trips to Canada and Mexico. The passport should be valid at least six months beyond the return date of your trip.
While AAA does not process passport applications, we can provide you with the resources to make the process easier.
- Visit your nearest AAA office for passport photos. (Free for Plus and Premier members!)
- Passport Application and Instructions
- Passport Acceptance Facility Search
In addition to a valid U.S. Passport, some countries require visitors to have a visa. A visa is an endorsement on a passport which indicates that the traveler is allowed to enter, leave, or stay for a specified period of time in the country.
AAA's preferred visa partner is Travisa. Visit their website to find out if a visa is required, print required forms, and pay for processing.
AAA members get exclusive rates by entering account code AAA00203539093R in the Global Service Order Form.
Stop by your local AAA office to shop for an assortment of luggage, travel accessories, guide books, and more at exclusive member savings.
- Luggage
- Anti-theft accessories
- Toiletry kits
- International maps and guidebooks
- and much more!
International Travel Guides: Information on every country in the world including entry and exit requirements, health and safety information, and more.
SMART Traveler Enrollment: Register your trip to allow the State Department to better assist you in an emergency abroad.
Passport Health: Seven convenient locations in Arizona to provide travel immunizations. Show your AAA card and save!
AAA Travel Money: Prepaid Visa Debit Card offers travelers a safe and convenient alternative to travelers checks and cash.
Foreign Currency: Order foreign currency and have it shipped to your door.
International Drivers Permit: Valid in over 150 countries, the permit translates your license into 10 languages. Available at your local AAA office.
TSA Prohibited Items: Can I bring that on the flight? Find out here.
While we hope your trip goes exactly as planned, traveling abroad can present unique challenges. Here are some tips to make sure you're prepared in case something goes wrong:
- Sign your passport and fill out the emergency information page. Make sure you have a signed, valid passport and visas, if required, and fill in the emergency information page of your passport.
- Leave copies of your itinerary and passport information page with someone you trust. This will help people reach you in case of emergency. It also expedites the process if you lose your passport while abroad.
- Check your insurance for overseas medical coverage. Your health insurance may not cover you outside of the U.S. If it doesn't, you may want to consider supplemental travel insurance such as Allianz Global Assistance.
- Familiarize yourself with local laws and customs. While in a foreign country you are subject to its laws. The U.S. State Department website has useful safety information about every country.
- Take precautions to avoid being the target of a crime. Don't wear conspicuous jewelry or carry large amounts of money. Visit the AAA Travel Store inside your local AAA office for theft-proof wallets and purses.
- Contact your credit and debit card companies. Call your bank and credit card companies to let them know where you'll be traveling. This will ensure they don't decline international charges. While you have them on the line, ask about foreign transaction fees and daily withdrawal limits.
- Check airline fees. In an attempt to remain profitable in the face of rising fuel costs, airlines are constantly changing service fees such as the checked baggage fee. Consult your airline's website for the most up-to-date information. In many cases you can save money by pre-paying these fees online.
Keep an Eye on Your Identity When Traveling
Don't carry the burden of identity theft when you travel. Enroll in AAA's newest benefit free to members, ProtectMyID®, and have peace of mind knowing your identity is being monitored. Free to all members who enroll, ProtectMyID Essential — a $79 value — provides daily credit monitoring, fraud resolution support, and lost wallet assistance. Or pay $8.95 a month to sign up for the Deluxe package for additional benefits.
Enroll online or call toll-free 1-877-440-6943
And as you head out of town on vacation, AAA and Experian provide the following tips to help you keep your identity safe while on the road.
Checks: Leave checkbooks and checks at home, in a locked safe. The Identity Theft Resource Center (ITRC) recommends that you use cash, traveler's checks, or credit cards for purchases.
Hotel Safes: Lock up all your valuables in room safes or hotel safes while you are out of your room. That includes laptops, jewelry, passports, and other documents that contain personal identifying information.
Vacation travelers: Remember to use a fanny pack or travel pouch, worn inside your shirt, to carry important documents or cash. This will lower your risk of falling victim to a thief waiting to ruin your vacation.
Dos and Don'ts of Digital Travel
Do set up your own Wi-Fi with a portable router & SIM card.
Don't be so social. Check-ins, photos, and tweets make it clear your home is vacant. Delay posts until you're back.
Do choose credit over debit. Credit cards offer better fraud protection.
Don't get spoofed. Double check a site's URL before you submit data to help avoid spoof sites.

BMI View: Sau di Arabia offers compelling growth opportunities for IT solution providers across multiple industry verticals owing to the kingdom's strong macro fundamentals and the government's economic diversification plan . We believe that global IT firms with considerable local presence will benefit the most from this opportunity . Local players will also benefit as global vendors look to form partnerships to ease market access . A number of major IT firms have already taken steps in recent years to ramp up their operations in the country, usually through partnerships with local system integrators. The macroeconomic and policy environment is driving IT market growth and investment in the private sector , however there is downside from a prolonged period of depressed oil prices and regional security tensions .
Headline Expenditure Projections
Computer Hardware Sales: SAR10.04bn in 2014 to SAR10.03bn in 2015, -0.1% in local currency terms. Desktop and notebook demand expected to continue recovery after cannibalisation during the tablet boom, but a slowdown in tablet demand will be a drag on overall hardware spending, resulting in contraction in 2015.
Software Sales: SAR4.4bn in 2014 to SAR4.7bn in 2015, +8.5% in local currency terms. Enterprise software adoption will continue to deepen among small- and medium-sized enterprises as Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) becomes more widely available and awareness levels increase.
IT Services Sales: SAR5.6bn in 2014 to SAR6.1bn in 2015, +10.3% in local currency terms. Adoption of cloud computing infrastructure and platform services will be the fastest area of growth, but smart infrastructure deployment is also an emerging growth area.
Key Trends And Developments
BMI believes that through its partnership with Meraas, Aliyun (the datacentres and cloud computing arm of China-based e-commerce giant Alibaba) is well placed to benefit from the emergence of smart cities and related infrastructure over the next decade in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states. The as yet unnamed joint venture will be based in Dubai and will create new applications, cloud computing architecture and 'big data' tools for local and multinational organisations operating out of the UAE initially, but targeting the GCC region where smart city initiatives are underway in Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar and Bahrain. Smart services solutions will be integrated into next-generation transportation, communications, infrastructure, power, government services and urban planning projects as authorities orchestrate the development of smart cities. Aliyun's proven capabilities in processing complex 'big data' systems will make it an attractive partner for players across multiple verticals and, potentially, give parent Alibaba access to a relatively underserved e-commerce market.A combination of BMI's bullish outlook for SME enterprise adoption potential in Saudi Arabia, and the significance of SaaS provision in unlocking the market, was evident in the March 2015 announcement from Saudi Arabian mobile operator Etihad Etisalat (Mobily). It launched a Cloud Business Intelligence service in association with Arabian Business Intelligence Solutions. The service enables SMEs to obtain advanced reports and provides a comprehensive information dashboard. Additionally, it integrates different departmental information to provide thorough analysis and flexibility. Mobily has recently unveiled a number of cloud computing services in collaboration with specialised partners, to cut the cost of both hardware and software in management expenses.

Pistons guard Rodney Stuckey drives against the Nets' Stephen Graham, left, and Ben Uzoh during Detroit's win Wednesday at the Palace. / AP
The booing conflicted with the tenor of the evening. Dennis Rodman was home, getting his Pistons jersey retired and contributions validated. It was a joyous occasion, because the only smiles the Pistons garner now is when you remember when they won championships.
But the tribute gave those angered over a maddening present an outlet for voicing their discontent. Many jeered Karen Davidson upon her introduction during the ceremony. No surprise. The delay in finalizing the sale of the franchise only further stalls bringing back the necessary stability at the top of the organization.
But Joe Dumars didn't escape the wrath, either.
He should get booed. He might even boo himself. Dumars knows the rules. The results aren't there. He hired the coach. He assembled the roster. His fingerprints are all over a season that, if anybody raised a banner in its honor, it would bear a rattle and teething ring. People can accept defeat if it's the product of an overmatched roster that nonetheless conducts itself professionally. But they will not -- should not -- tolerate child-like petulance.
Nobody's angrier than Dumars. This team's personality ran counter to the ethos he has long preached -- work hard, do what you're told and keep your mouth shut. Nothing offends him more than a blatant lack of professionalism.
Dumars created this mess. He deserves the opportunity to clean it up with the blessings of a new ownership group committed to bringing a championship presence back to the Palace. You can't fairly grade the personnel moves of the past two years without factoring the influence of ownership instability.
These Pistons are an unlikable team. The end of a shameful season can't come soon enough.
Rodney Stuckey sounded like a repentant child following Wednesday night's 116-109 victory over New Jersey. John Kuester grounded him for two games. He said he learned his lesson. He let his emotions get the better of his judgment. That's acceptable following the first infraction, but his failure to enter the game late against Chicago last Friday at Kuester's request was at least Stuckey's third insubordinate act this season.
It's too late for "I'm sorry." It's time for "You're done."
Kuester should have benched him for the remainder of the season.
"I think it's important that messages have to be sent," said Kuester. "You've got to be committed to what the team is all about."
But this proved another example of Kuester ultimately rolling over. The immediate reaction when Stuckey first entered the game was expected. He got booed. But as he led the Pistons with 14 fourth-quarter points, playing every second in that final quarter, some chanted his name.
Stuckey once was one of the reasons for modest optimism that perhaps Dumars could retool a playoff team on the fly without much erosion. But now he's a stern reminder of one of the organization's biggest miscalculations -- believing that he could become a viable starting point guard in this league.
There are plenty of changes coming after this season mercifully concludes in another week. The biggest change should be creating a product that might not win many more games next season, but at least will be easier to stomach and embrace than the sickening sideshow this season became.

Joystick-it for iPad hands-on
There's no doubt that, with thousands of titles on offer, the iPad is a valid portable(ish) games machine. Indeed, some apps could happily rival PSP and DS equivalents, yet cost a fraction of the price.
One bugbear we've always had with console quality games on the device, though, is that the capacitive touchscreen, sweaty thumbs and fiddly virtual thumb controllers do not make for a pleasant gaming experience, nor do they allow you to concentrate on the action without constantly looking to wear your digits are placed.
ThinkGeek has the answer, mini arcade control sticks that stick to the screen at the exact point of the in-game controls in order to give you completely 360-degree movement, tangibly and accurately.
Its Joystick-it tablet arcade stick is a tiny godsend for iPad gamers. At its bottom it has a non-damaging suction cup, which has enough give for the stick to wiggle about. Above that there's a capacitive sponge, the type of which you'd find in smaller quality at the tip of a stylus. It is this that interacts with the screen.
The rest is a solid milled aluminium construction (or so it says on the box), which feels chunky in the hand, regardless of its diminutive stature. And that's really all there is to it. It is a masterpiece of simplicity.
Not all games work with the Joystick-it, of course. Some don't have 360-degree controls, so they're out, and some on-screen pads are either too big or two small for the game to register the stick's directions. However, it has been designed to suit the average dimensions, so should work on plenty of games to make it worthwhile.
We tried it on Pacman, Galaxian Reloaded (removed from the App Store, presumably for copyright infringement), Sacred Odyssey and Speedball 2, and it worked beautifully on all of them. In many cases, changing the entire dynamic of the game, and improving the experience no end.
Another bonus is that, should you acquire two Joystick-its, you can use them at the same time - something we tried on EA's Reckless Racing and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3... The first took a bit of getting used to, as you're using both sticks at once, and they don't respond quite the same as a conventional thumbstick; but the second allowed two players to play on the same screen during UMK3. Result.
We didn't get to test them on an Android tablet, but are also assured they work on one of those too.
The only downsides we can mention are that it's a ThinkGeek exclusive, so needs to be ordered from the States, and that each Joystick-it is fairly pricey. One stick will cost $24.99 (£15.62), while two, when ordered together, will set you back $39.99 (£25). And that's without postage and packaging, which could cost a bit over $20 (£12.50) for shipment to the UK. Plus, there's the UK Customs charges to consider - we ended up paying those to the delivery guy on arrival.
Is it worth it though? For arcade-style control over some of the iPad's greatest games? You betcha.
How do you play iPad games? Will these make a huge difference to you? Let us know in the comments below...

I loved, loved, loved this recipe. I agree with the other review, though--the topping can be cut in half or 3/4. Raspberries lining the bottom would also be fantastic!flag if inappropriate
WOW!!! it is AMAZING! I couldn't find the creme fraiche but I didn't wanted to ruin it with just whipping cream, so I did a merengue: put 4 egg whites in the electric mixter until peaks form, then add 12 tablespoons of sugar, one by one and finish up with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. I did it yesterday and I was lucky to have one little piece left behind. Let me tell you that the day after tastes even better!!! I'll do it again w/the creme fraicheflag if inappropriate
The perfect pie for chocolate lovers. I served this on Christmas Eve to rave reviews from family and friends, and I've been craving it since! Might have to make it again for New Year! Followed the recipe exactly. It was quite easy and everything turned out perfectly. Would agree with other reviewers that there is a lot of topping, but loved the flavor - not too sweet - just might make less next time. Filling and crust were amazing!flag if inappropriate
I love this recipe- the filling is delicious, although I have never made the topping, and topped with whipped cream. I made this recipe for a local pie contest, adding raspberries to the pie pan before dumping in the filling, making the filling with raspberry liquer, and topping with whipped cream and more raspberries- and it won!flag if inappropriate
This recipe is wonderful, EXCEPT for the creme fraiche topping-- I didn't care for it. Whipped cream does the job even better. The pie and the crust are to DIE for. Absolutely wonderful.flag if inappropriate
This is a great recipe for true chocolate lovers! People who don't love dark chocolate will not appreciate this as much!flag if inappropriate
very very good... the crust was my FAVORITE partflag if inappropriate
i substitued whipping cream for the creme fraiche, it turned out super yummy!flag if inappropriate
This was phenomenal. Even down to the extra choc. in the crust, a well thought out recipe. A must try!flag if inappropriate
I dream of this pie everyday. Only complaint is that there is too much topping, next time I will use half. Otherwise, it's perfect.flag if inappropriate

Bladder Infection Remedies for Dogs
Last Modified on Sep 21, 2015
How to Stop a Bladder Infection in Dogs
Bladder infections, or cystitis, can be very difficult for your dog, as it can cause inflammation of the bladder and cause frequent, painful urination. Other bladder infection symptoms in dogs are cloudy smelly urine, females may have vaginal discharge, and a urinary analysis can show bacteria, white blood cells, and red blood cells in the urine. If left untreated, it may cause kidney infections.
Find a Cure for Your Dog with Bladder Infection Symptoms
On this page you can find user submitted remedies for the treatment of bladder infections in dogs. Some of our popular Earth Clinic cures for bladder infections are apple cider vinegar either mixed with food or diluted with water, cranberry, iodine, vitamin C, and sea salt. Let us know if you try any remedies you find on this site and how they worked for you. Know of a remedy not listed here? Please don't hesitate to share it with us!

[YEA] I am so happy to have found this website.
The Apple Cider Vinegar helped! I teaspoon BID (twice a day) mixed in the wet food plus some chopped parsley from my garden and my dog is his normal self again. No more accidents around the house. This is day 4 of the treatment, and we could put our steamcleaner back in the basement.
I wonder why our Vet rather prescribe Antibiotics before recommending this.
Thank you,
[YEA] My 14 week old Hungarian Vizsla had a Urine Infection, after 2 weeks of anti-biotics, I wanted to try to prevent this from happening again. I bought Organic Apple Cider Vinegar from my local Supermarket. Put 1 teaspoon in her wet meat mixed with biscuits in the morning and evening. Her lunch was left as normal mix. I tried putting the ACV in her water, but she wouldn't drink it - I think the smell was too strong. The smell of the meat hid the smell of the ACV when mixed with meat. After 2 days she was much better. I continued for 1 week and 'hey presto' she's fine - no more white blood cells in her urine.
I wish to thank everyone for all their information posted. I wouldn't have known about this remedy without reading it here. Thank you.
[YEA] I've been a Vet for 37 years, and have seen medication continue to get better, but also fail miserably. Although I do prescribe medication, I also have (and still do) advise clients to administer Apple Cider Vinegar to their pets for quick fixes. Animals are much like humans in the sense that too much antibiotic can lead to a recurring infection, due to the fact that the body becomes immune to the antibiotics. If it is in the beginning, or mild stages of a UTI, I advise them to use ACV, but also prescribe some medication that I say to only use after giving the ACV a try.
My advice is to mix 1TSP in their morning food, and 1TSP at night. If you only feed your dog once per day, do 1TBSP with their food. Dairy does not sit very well in dogs stomachs, so mixing it with yogurt isn't advised. Try mixing it into some canned wet food. If your dog doesn't usually eat canned wet food, consider it a treat for them.
If you have just noticed your dog starting to exhibit the signs of a UTI, try the ACV fix. If your dog has had signs for a while, and is getting worse see a vet at your earliest convenience. If there is blood in the urine, see a Veterinary professional immediately.
Hope this helps.
Take care.

08/31/2015Hi Dr. Benton, I am interested in your point of view here. I recently adopted a dog that was misrepresented to me. I was told he was 6-7 years old and had kennel cough. When the dog was transported to me, I had to take him to the vet less than 24 hours later because he was on the verge of death. The vet I saw told me that he is more like 10 years old (lifespan of the dogo argentino breed being 10-12 years). He was very skinny, had vomiting, blood in his stool, cataracts, kennel cough, and arthritis. We decided to hospitalize him to try to see if we could get him better. When he came home, he had some discolored urine toward the end of the pee, which had gone away after two subsequent urinations. During this time, we also had xrays, blood chemistry, and a fecal test done. All tests came back with normal results. He was on clavamox, metronidazole (if m remembering correctly) for 7 days, cerenia for 4 days, sucralfate for 5 days, and pepcid ac permanently. The kennel cough seems to have cleared up and the blood on the stool went away. It's very hard to find something that he will eat, so we're not getting weight back on him and struggling to not lose weight. He drinks water just fine. Now I'm concerned because he had one pee that smelled very bad. I brought him to the vet Friday because his vomiting started back up and they put him back on cerenia and pepcid. Then he had cloudy pee toward the end. Saturday he was fine in the morning and all of a sudden just looked dumpy. He then had blood in his pee. This ended after about 6 hours when he looked happy again and even had a great appetite comparatively. The cloudiness at the end of urination hasn't gone away. When I told my vet these things they suggested getting an ultrasound at another clinic. Is there any way this could be a uti? I'm really struggling here with what is the right thing to do. He seems to get better but then has these setbacks. I don't want him to suffer. If it is as simple as a uti I can keep trying but if not I think it would be best to euthanize him at his age. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

09/19/2015How long do u give it to them? My English bull dog has been on antibiotics for 6 weeks 4 weeks for dermamites and now amoxicillin for the uti. I am giving her the amoxiciin and acv.
[YEA] My dog, a 4 yr old American Bulldog, had a bladder infection that seemed to not work with antibiotics given by the vet. After multiple medications and 3 vet visits within a 3 week time period, the last visit they did ultrasound and X-rays to see if he had kidney stones or whatever was going on and to why he was not responding to antibiotics. After reviewing imaging, his bladder was so large and full of urine we were unable to see his prostate b/c bladder pushed it back so far. My dog had blockage and was still unable to urinate along with peeing blood also. Vet suggested I go to ER to have his bladder drained with catheter b/c when the vet office attempted they said they were unable to do it b/c they didn't he the proper tools. ? the vet also stated that he most likely had prostate cancer. Idk where that came from b/c I just listened to her tell me that she could barely see the prostate b/c of the enlarged bladder. I understand that it def could be cancer but where did she come up with that based off of something she could not see? The cost of ER was $1500 for only draining of bladder and 24 hr care. Nothing else included. OR she suggested euthanasia!!!!! I broke down in tears and didn't know what was best to do. I did know, at that time I was not ready to make a decision, sooooo I brought my dog home. I cried and cried and felt I had to try other alternatives before going based off of 1 doctor.
I tried the Apple Cider Vinegar that I read up online and multiple reviews from others and I wanted to try. I just finished 2 days of giving him 2 T 2x/day and have already seen improvement. He has actually been able to make a much better pee on his own, waaaayyyy better than he did befor acv.
Now I will say this, Apple Cider Vinegar is nasty and my dog is not a fan. I tried putting Apple Cider Vinegar in his water along with mixing Apple Cider Vinegar with yogurt and he did not like either one. I have been putting Apple Cider Vinegar in a dropper and having to put it in his mouth to keep him from spitting it out. With that being said, whatever works best for you is the route I would take in administering Apple Cider Vinegar to your dog. I have another appt in 3 days to get a second opinion from a new vet and I hope to have better news than I did on my last 3 vet visits. As many of us, we are all pet lovers and will do anything to save our animals. If in doubt as I was, get a second opinion so that you know you tried all you could in order to save your pets life.

09/08/2015What happened when you saw the second dr?
[YEA] I have a fourteen year old female Corgi/Shepherd mix named Molly who weighs around fifty pounds (she is definitely overweight! ), who developed a bad bladder infection all of a sudden. There was blood in her urine and she was exhibiting the stress behavior of relieving herself on the living room carpet, which she normally never does.
I followed the instructions given on this site and gave her organic unfiltered apple cider vinegar from Trader Joe's. It has been one week today; all her symptoms have been gone since day five.
Blood was no longer present in her urine (not visibly anyway like before) on the morning of day three. By day four, she wasn't going in the house any more. After day five she wasn't repeatedly squatting over and over outside like she felt she needed to keep trying to go. I am, however, continuing on with a maintenance dose since she has gum disease and I think it may have caused her bladder infection (I'm afraid to have her put under anesthesia for cleaning/surgery at her age).
I started out giving her one tablespoon in the morning with a recipe I came up with: boiled chicken, either baked yams or organic potatoes, a little frozen organic spinach, organic chicken broth, and one teaspoon of organic coconut oil. I mashed everything up with a potato masher and microwaved everything together in her bowl except the ACV, which I added afterward.
I repeated the same exact recipe around eight or nine hours later at dinner time, with another tablespoon of the ACV. I also gave her about a teaspoon of ACV at bedtime in three or four teaspoons of organic yogurt to hold her over for the night.
After the fourth day, I changed the doses of ACV to two teaspoons with breakfast, two teaspoons with dinner, and two teaspoons at bedtime. This equals two tablespoons total, a reduction of one teaspoon from before.
Today, day seven, I have reduced the doses down to one-and-a-half teaspoons with each meal: breakfast, dinner, bedtime yogurt. I'm going to see how it goes for a few days and reduce it down to one teaspoon three times a day, and then go from there, perhaps stopping the bedtime yogurt.
I hope this helps someone who is dealing with the same issue with their dog -- it was certainly a Godsend for me! Thank you very much earthclinic.com... :) Tamara
[YEA] I have a 9-yr-old Plott Hound (100 lbs) who has been having recurring UTIs. Every time it's been off to the vet, then $250 later home with another bottle of antiobiotics. Once she's off the antibiotics, the UTI comes back.
I fortunately found this site and tried the ACV cure-- and it worked! I used 2T raw ACV ("with the mother) mixed with 2T organic plain yogurt, mixed w/food, 2x day. After the first dose she improved, and after 5 days now she seems completely cured! I will gradually step down the dosage and then keep her on 1x/week to keep things normal. I am SO thrilled that I found this website, thank you all!

11/03/2011Just an update on my Plott Hound with recurring UTIs -- not a single symptom since starting the ACV in September. I now have her on 1/2 tsp mixed with yogurt, mixed with her food, for maintenance. Thank you Earth Clinic folks!
[YEA] Our 7 yr. Old doxie had bladder issues and you could tell it was painful and his stomach was tight. I personally use Apple Cider Vinegar for my kidney stone issues. Works Great!! I gave our doxie 1tsp 2x a day in yogurt and he is completely cleared up!! He is back to his ole fiesty self!! I only buy organic acv. It has "the mother" on the label.
[YEA] When my 13 y/o schipperke showed symptoms of a UTI, I took her to the vet. $350 later we had a positive urinalisys, a bottle of antibiotics, and updated x-rays. When our other dog, a younger mixed breed of the same size started showing symptoms of a UTI, we didn't have the funds to go to the vet again. I put a teaspoon of ACV (B. Brand) in some soft food (a grain-free brand) and added it to her regular kibble, along with 1/4 of a cranberry tablet. She's been getting this twice a day for a few days now, and loves it. She licks up all the food, eats the pill, and has no more UTI symptoms. I've also been putting ACV in the schipperke's food as a preventative. Both dogs seem to love the taste!
Another tip: Wash all the dog dishes AND the dogs. UTI is most often caused by E. Coli, and that can come from a variety of sources. I don't know how my two little girls got it, but they both did. Maybe they ate something they shouldn't have, who knows?
[YEA] My Puppy (black lab) of 2 monthes old had a uti and was put on an antibiotic. To make a long story short she ended up taking 3 different antibiotics and DL methionine. She is now 4 months old and after spending 575.00 on vet bills I tried the organic ACV and after 5 days had a special test called INDEXX urine culture and urinalysis. Just got a phone call from the vets office and they said the infection is gone. Now I don't know if it was because of the last antibiotic she was on but I believe the ACV worked. I gave Her 1teaspoon a day mixed with a tablespoon of plain yogurt mixed with her dog food. Now my little pee wee is well and I could'nt be happier.
[YEA] Thank You for this website! After spending $400.00 ( in which I DO NOT HAVE) on tests and antibiotics 6 months ago. My 13 yr old dog once again was showing signs of bladder infection. The ACV treatment WORKED! Vets are so Important and Thank GOD they are there, But the truth is MANY of them are OVERPRICED and Unwilling to understand that Most people do Not have hundreds of dollars to spend on thier pets. Like $400.00 to find a bladder infection? REALLY?
[YEA] Our 4 month old female choc lab was showing obvious signs of a UTI and not wanting to subject her to antibiotics and expensive lab tests, I chose to try the yogurt/ACV treatment and it totally worked! I gave her 1 tablespoon organic natural yogurt 1 tablespoon raw apple cider vinegar four times the first day, spaced out 4 hours, and I could tell by that first evening that it was working. I was so thrilled and so relieved! I continued it through the second day, just wanting to make sure the infection was gone. I am going to continue to give it to her once a day as a supplement to keep the UTI from coming back again. Natural, healthy supplements have to be better than drugs and antibiotics from the vet!
[YEA] I read about apple cider vinegar( ACV) on this site, I have a small mini foxie, around 6kg, she was peeing or trying to pee, between 15-20 times on our daily walk, I figured it might be a bladder infection. I did call my vet and was told antibiotics, this was going to be a call out on a weekend of $195 antibiotics. Instead I thought I would try for 12 hours and see if indeed it works.
I used 1 teaspoon x 3 times a day and after 24 hours the peeing was 5 times on our walk instead of 15-20 the day before. The next day I continued same ACV and she was much better, temperature normal, peeing normal. The cost so far about 30C and no nasty chemicals! THANK YOU for this site! Spread the word.

04/25/2011Hi, my dog did not have any signs of blood in her urine, I forgot to say that I used 1 teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar mixed with some natural yoghurt x 3 times a day, day 3 she is cured. I would try this before a vet any day.
[YEA] Lacey recently had had another UTI (3rd in the past 18 months all due to grain heavy dog food). First two times we took her to the vet who gave meds then she had a yeast infection both times following the UTI meds. Both times I only gave her can food. The third time she had a UTI(Feburary 2011)we gave her 1/2 tsp ACV for three days by syringe & water then squirt it down her throat after she eats for three days straight. Remember to give your dog food before you administer ACV. I forgot to let her eat before we gave her the ACV and she regurgutated it. All the other times when we gave ACV she always had some food in the tummy & responded well with no problems.
[YEA] My 3 year old Chocolate Lab (100lbs) started having a problem 2 days ago, she would have small accidents in the house which she never did and woke us up at 3:00 am needing to go out. We knew she had a bladder infection because she would go out and try to pee but nothing would happen, after finding this thread we gave her 2 tbl spoons of ACV mixed in with 2tbl spoons of non-flavored yogurt.
Well today she is back to her normal self this worked great for us, we will continue to give it to her for a couple of days just to make sure it has cleared up.
Thanks Too All!
[SIDE EFFECTS] My 14 yr. Old black lab is having a horrible time with kidney leakage. She weighs app. 100 lbs and yesterday we gave her apple cider vinegar but wasn't sure how much to give. I gave her app. 1 1/2 tablespoons and diluted with a little water ... She has been gagging since we gave her the ACV. What should I do????? I don't know if I should give her anymore of the ACV because she's still gagging and nothing comes up. She has plenty of water to drink ... But she only drinks when she wants to. How much and how can I give her the ACV? PLEASE ... I NEED HELP!! I DON'T WANT TO LOSE MY BIG GIRL ... I KNOW IT'S INEVITABLE WE ALL HAVE TO DIE BUT I DON'T THINK I CAN MENTALLY HANDLE IT AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE. ANYONE WITH MORE INFORMATION ... PLEASE ... PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP.

07/26/2010To Donna from Barbourville, I just read your post- sorry it doesn't seem that anyone answered, it seems that you didn't dilute the ACV enough 1 1/2 tbsp. in just a little water still will be strong and the poor thing must have had a hard time with bad sensations in the throat or stomach. Dilute in at least 1 gallon of water 2 tbsp. There are enough posts here that you can go over and see what worked for other people in a similar situation. All the best wishes for you and your Lab. Don't give up, and really hope she's doing better.

All-inclusive dog washes start with a pre-bath brushing before dogs are rinsed free of dirt and smells with warm water and environmentally friendly shampoos. Next, groomers gently trim nails and clean eyes and ears, inspecting them for infections. They then dry their coats with a hand held, warm air blow dryer, and infuse coats with an aromatherapy rinse and deodorizing conditioner before rewarding pups with a special treat that also helps clean their teeth. The service finishes with a basic trim around the face, feet, and sanitary areas, where needed.

In a custom-built mobile dog washing unit, The Pooch Mobile's team of groomers travels to dirty dogs all around Henderson to give them a thorough cleansing in veterinarian-approved hydrobaths. Aside from the hydrobath's spray of fresh warm water, organic shampoos, aromatherapy rinses, and deodorizing conditioners each do their part to cleanse coats throughout the all-inclusive washes.
