Fuji Mix together: the big world poverty industryPoor industry is not easy to make moneyObviously insufficient investment in information technology, the large number of solution providers, market competition, concentration is not high, the domestic retail market to see how information technology is a piece of barren land.IDC's China IT solutions for the retail industry market forecast from 2010 to 2014, and research reports that, as of 2009, there were more than 150 major vendors to provide IT services to the retail industry. The total income of the top ten companies 707.5 million, accounting for only 42.9% overall market share.Rich Technology Co., Ltd. Beijing this empathy-based intermediation. "This is a highly fragmented market." Yan Yanchun, chairman of the view that the retail industry solution providers in general, "small size" and spread too thin, and the Chinese retail industry itself is closely related to market concentration is not high. According to the China Chain Store & Franchise Association, the relevant data, in 2010, domestic retail chains hundred sales volume reached 1.66 trillion yuan though, but retail sales only accounted for 11% of the total.In such a fragmented market, the money has become difficult, and software companies to make money is difficult. "In an order, the hardware and network, 3 dollars if our software is only a dollar." Yan Yanchun on Computer Partner, told reporters.Listed five challenges continueThat being said, but the rich base facility obstinately to find in such a poor industry to their survival. In 2006, the company set about the occasion of ten years, the rich base facility became the first local Nasdaq-listed IT software and service providers.In early 2011, recalled the company through five years after listing, Yan Yanchun speech is embodied in a lot more changes and challenges.First, the market's competitive landscape has undergone great changes, a growing number of Fortune 500 and brand manufacturers to enter the Chinese retail market, China's local enterprises to grow up quickly, the match becomes more and more. In this case, the rich still get a lot of facility-based international customers, such as P & G, Pepsi, L'Oreal, Kimberly-Clark, etc., to expand domestic retail hundred to more than 30 customers, such as Suning Appliance, Lianhua, China Resources, etc.; and Help Haier and other traditional manufacturers have begun to enter the retail market in the country 3 to 4 lines 5000 to 6000 the city has opened retail stores.Secondly, over the past 5 years, the Chinese retail market itself has undergone great changes, and more development may become a trend, a lot of M & A cases each year, which the company made a lot of new issues. Today, facility-based solutions for the rich to cover the basic consumer goods industry, from logistics, distribution to all major formats of the retail business.
Finally, from within the company and the challenges of mergers and acquisitions. Over the past few years, the rich more than the base through the acquisition of facility work, has established a mature system of M & A process and cultural integration.The good news is, "from the market by 2010, about three times the growth of our performance. 5 years, we completed two major initial transformation: First, from a software company completed the transition to a service company, service income close to the software revenue; the second is complete retail solutions from a single provider to the end to end supply chain solutions provider in the transition. "Consumption of the world to create happinessToday, the retail industry is accelerating as the center from a retailer to the consumer-centric transformation. Yan Yanchun that "things change in the retail sector has become increasingly clear, including mobile Internet. This is a more transparent supply chain. Social network of" people "linked to things is the" objects "connected . "In this backdrop, the importance of supply chain management has become increasingly prominent, with efficient and transparent supply chain, retailers, suppliers, manufacturers of the inventory can be reasonably controlled. At the same time, customer relationship management is also vital to care for customers, moving customers, improve customer relations, building long-term emotional bonds.Fuji facility can take advantage of the Internet, particularly social networks to help the entire supply chain, all the roles, including manufacturers, suppliers, retailers and consumers, so that our common sense of happiness, this is a chain of consumer well-being of the world, Fu-based facility, and ultimately the corporate mission to create a happy new consumer world.In Yan Yanchun, future, rich base facility will no longer be a software company, but a truly company to help customers solve problems and help them become more intelligent development. "So our team building is very important. Before 30% of the people engaged in the retail industry, 5 years later, I hope to 60%, it will be a great change."Develop new markets in China YurunIn the past the year 2010, research and discuss hot industry issues, "Fu-based Business Review," published, praised by the industry; order to meet the cloud computing era, the rich base facilities specially set up new business sectors, both in technology and market to meet future industry changes, has been the practical application of two cloud (SFA and centralized deployment); order to better serve customers, the company set up a system integration and services, and the establishment of call centers, which is the company's major strategic transformation to a service initiative, won a better customer satisfaction.Yan Yanchun that the retail value chain, there are four stages: First, shop expansion; Second, supply chain efficiency; Third, differences in management; fourth, one on one customer relationships. "At present, a large number of retailers still in the development of the first stage, the expansion of their shop is still the topic of greatest concern."
To this end, in recent years, the rich base facility to speed up the opening in the branches and offices across the country the pace of development in some areas that provide outsourcing services partner to provide customers with tailor local services. Meanwhile, the company will continue to deepen its "Yurun China" program, in the most developed areas in domestic consumption, and vigorously expand the second and third and even fourth tier cities in the market.In a few years, China is not only the world's manufacturing center, is the world's consumer center, China will become the world's largest retail market. China's urbanization, the rise of the middle class and the rise of online retail and other three forces are driving the historical process, which gives the rich base facility's development has brought great opportunities.Looking to the future, "the birth of China's retail sales will be tens of billions of solution providers," is rich base facility you? "Why not?" Yan Yanchun answer without the slightest hesitation.

Raman Spectra of Compounds in the Gaseous and Liquid States10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723675View Description Hide Description
An apparatus for exciting the Raman spectra of gases and liquids at temperatures up to 300°C is described. For phosphorus trichloride, methyl chloride, methyl bromide, methyl alcohol, methylene chloride, methylene bromide, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride, the Raman spectra of the gas and the liquid at the same temperature have been photographed in juxtaposition with a liquid‐prism spectrograph of speed f: 2.9 and linear dispersion 27A/mm at 4400A. The Raman spectra of gaseous n‐pentane, n‐hexane, and deuterium oxide have been photographed with 2537A excitation. The change in the Raman frequencies with the state of aggregation is different for different vibrations and varies greatly from compound to compound. In the absence of an adequate theory for this phenomenon, a search has been made for empirical regularities. The perpendicular bands of the symmetrical‐top molecules are much less diffuse in the liquid than in the gas, showing that the intermolecular forces are effective in quenching the rotation of the molecules in the liquid. The other bands are about equally sharp in gas and liquid.
The Infra‐Red Absorption Spectra of Ethylene and Tetra‐Deutero‐Ethylene under High Resolution10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723676View Description Hide Description
The fine structure of several infra‐red absorption bands of C2H4 and C2D4 have been resolved. From the rotational constants so found, the C–C and C–H distances in this molecule were calculated to be 1.353 and 1.071A, and the H–C–H angle to be 119°55′. An assignment of fundamental frequencies has been made which is consistent with the observed data.
Dispersion and Absorption in Dielectrics II. Direct Current Characteristics10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723677View Description Hide Description
In the first paper of this series [J. Chem. Phys. 9, 341 (1941)], it was shown that the complex dielectric constant, ε*, of many liquid and solid dielectrics is given by a single very general formulaIn this equation ε0 and ε∞ are the ``static'' and ``infinite frequency'' dielectric constants, ω = 2π times the frequency, τ0 is a generalized relaxation time and α is a constant, 0 < α < 1. The transient current as a function of the time, t, after application of a unit constant potential difference has been calculated from this expression in series form. For times much less than τ0, the time dependence is of the form (t/τ0)−α, and for times much greater than τ0, it is of the form (t/τ0)−(2—α). The transition between these extremes occurs for the range in which t is comparable with τ0. The total absorption charge, which is the integral of the exact expression, is always finite. Although many transient data for dielectrics are of the predicted form, none have been taken over a sufficiently wide range of times adequately to test the result, nor is it yet possible to determine either the relaxation time or the static dielectric constant from available data.
The Thermal Decomposition of n‐Butylamine10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723663View Description Hide Description
The thermal decomposition of n‐butylamine proceeds in a manner analogous to that of the lower aliphatic amines. There is no evidence to support the suggestion of a molecular split into ammonia and ethylene. The mechanism appears to involve initially the production of a butylamino radical and a hydrogen atom. The butylamino radical may be the source of the ammonia found, by production of an imine whose presence is indicated. Pressure change rates yield an apparent energy of activation of 89 kcals.
The Photolysis of Azomethane in the Presence of Hydrogen10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723664View Description Hide Description
The photolysis of azomethane in presence of hydrogen in the temperature range 20–200°C has been shown to yield ethane at a rate which is independent of the hydrogen. At low temperatures methane production is decreased by the presence of hydrogen but the rate increases with temperature faster than from azomethane alone. A mechanism involving CH5 has been suggested which accounts qualitatively for the observations. Essentially the same mechanism is shown to account for the decomposition of mercury dimethyl, roughly quantitatively. Strong evidence is offered that the reaction producing methane from methyl radicals and hydrogen is not CH3+H2→CH4+H. This is supported by the absence of hydrogen atoms during the azomethane photolysis studied.
Systematics in the Vibrational Spectra of the Halogen Derivatives of Methane10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723665View Description Hide Description
On considerations of the symmetry and the approximate nature of the vibrations, the observed infra‐red and Raman frequencies of the halogen derivatives of methane are classified and their transitions in passing from one molecule to another in the series CH4–CH3X–CH2XY–CH2X2–CHX2Y–CHX3–CX4 are given. A potential function of the valence force type containing six constants is suggested for CH2X2 and the frequency equations given.
The Variation of the Transference Numbers of Sodium Chloride in Aqueous Solution with Temperature. II10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723666View Description Hide Description
The transference numbers of sodium chloride in aqueous solution at temperatures from 15° to 45° for concentrations up to 0.1N have been determined by the moving boundary method; both anion and cation boundaries were employed. The results for 25° are in close agreement with those of Longsworth. The Longsworth function t +°′ is linear in the concentration for the more dilute range at all temperatures, thus permitting a satisfactory extrapolation to infinite dilution, but shows definite deviations from linearity for the more concentrated. The transference numbers for sodium chloride and those previously obtained for potassium chloride, combined with the conductance data reported in the accompanying paper, yield values of the ionic mobilities for the whole temperature range.
The Conductance and Ionic Mobilities for Aqueous Solutions of Potassium and Sodium Chloride at Temperatures from 15° to 45°C10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723667View Description Hide Description
The conductance of aqueous solutions of potassium and sodium chloride has been determined at 15, 25, 35 and 45°C for concentrations from 0.0005N to 0.01N by a modified direct‐current method of high precision. At 15° and 25°, the results are in highly satisfactory agreement with the best of the existing data obtained by the a.c. bridge method. For all temperatures, the conductance can be represented within a few hundredths of a percent by the extended Onsager‐Shedlovsky equation. A calculation of the mobility of chloride ion from the conductance and the transference numbers obtained in this laboratory shows that for all temperatures the Kohlrausch rule of independent ionic mobilities is obeyed at infinite dilution within the apparent limit of error of the measurements—0.02 to 0.03 percent. The conductance and ionic mobilities for round values of the concentration, and the temperature coefficients of the ionic mobilities at infinite dilution are tabulated.
Statistical Thermodynamics of Rubber10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723668View Description Hide Description
The entropy change for the stretching of rubber is calculated by statistical methods, neglecting intermolecular attractions and deformation of bonds and bond angles. The calculation involves the probability of finding the system with a given distribution of molecular configurations. An equation of state relating the tension, length, and temperature of a rubber band is then derived. Following this a discussion of the applicability and the limitations of the theory is presented.
Absorption of Polysubstituted Benzene Derivatives10(1942); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723669View Description Hide Description
The intensification, by nonchromophoric substitutions, of the forbidden, 1 A 1g →1 B 2U , transition in benzene is due, on the one hand, to the unsymmetrical distortion of the ring by the normal vibrations and, on the other hand, to the transition moment produced at the equilibrium position by the migration of charge from the substitution into the ring or vice versa. The latter effect is treated by the method of antisymmetrical molecular orbitals, all calculations being limited to the first order. The rules for combining transition moments due to the various groups in a polysubstituted benzene are calculated. It is shown that, for weak nonchromophoric substitutions, the intensity ratios (except for the less important variation in the normal vibrations) are for . It is further shown that if one substitutes benzene by a meta‐directing group, M, and by an orthopara‐directing group, P, of the same intensifying power, the ratios for the mono : ortho : meta : para‐derivatives should be 1 : 3 : 3 : 0. These ratios are shown to be in good qualitative agreement with experimental data.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
I rank this book as intermediate in nature. As a prerequisite I recommend two other subjects for the beginner. One would be on SQL, and particularly T-SQL, the particular dialect spoken by Microsoft SQL Server. And second a book on programming C# in Visual Studio. This is an integrated development environment that has a lot of features that will be of help in writing C# programs.
While this book does have a section called 'A SQL Primer,' it is just that, a primer. There are a lot of situations where a task can be programmed either in C# or SQL. An example would be to extract some data from the database and depending on its value extract nothing else, or go get some additional data. This will work faster if it is done in SQL rather than C#. The SQL IF statement isn't covered in this book.
The strength of this book is in tying together C# and SQL especially when combined with ASP.NET applications to produce dynamic web pages. At that, it is excellent.
I have to admit that it really helped me alot to get started, here are the points I found useful:
1. You will definitely learn about ADO.NET basics and concepts and differences between adapters, datasets, tables and other classes.
2. The book shows step by step instructions on how to get apply what you are learning
3. The books gives theory, applications and hints so that all your questions are answered in each chapter
4. Comes with a real life scenario database "FolksTale" that you will learn how to program. The tales are nice by the way! :)
To get started you need some knowledge in SQL and basic C#/Windows forms skills.
The downside of this book is that some chapters talk alot about Web applications and how to use them with databases.
Although this can be a plus, but if have no Web programming experience you might feel frustrated and obliged to skip two chapters.
I highly recommend this book!

ENGLISH IV – AP Ms. Joe POLITICAL THEORY (COMP GOVT) – HP Ms. Wolfe AMERICAN GOVT/ECON – AP/HP Ms. Wolfe COURSE DESCRIPTION POLITICAL THEORY (COMPARATIVE GOVERNMENT) HONORS: The majority of the course will focus on the political and economic philosophies of Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, More, Hobbes, Locke, Montesquieu, Rousseau, Smith, Mill, DeTocqueville, Marx, Lenin, and Mao. Where possible, connections, comparison, and contrasts will be made with American political theory and government and with English literature. ENGLISH IV (ADVANCED PLACEMENT) The course content will focus on the literature (drama, novels, short stories, poetry, and essays) that best illustrates the social climate of the above theorists' philosophies, some contemporaneous with the philosophers themselves, others not. The literature will be closely analyzed for literary style and value as well as the piece's connection with its social environment. The class will concentrate on critical, personal, fiction, and creative writing throughout the year. Debate will be incorporated throughout the course. All students will be required to take the Advanced Placement Examination in English Literature. AMERICAN GOVERNMENT/ECONOMICS: (ADVANCED PLACEMENT/HONORS) The bulk of the course will focus on American government and politics. The major themes to be examined are democracy, federalism, the Presidency, Congress, the Judiciary, bureaucracy, politics, policy-making, political parties, campaigns, elections, public opinion and participation, interest groups, the media, and civil liberties. The purpose in considering these themes is to aid one in understanding the philosophy and the functioning of the American political system. Political Science, the study of government, is not only a fascinating subject but also a most important discipline since all major decisions in a modern, interdependent society are made in the political realm. Not even the most designing recluse can escape the effects of these political decisions. All students are required to take the Advanced Placement American Government Examination at the conclusion of the course. The final portion of the course will be devoted to a study of economics. The basic theories that make up the foundations of economics, concepts of microeconomics (pricing, competition, government regulation, and antitrust policy), concepts of macroeconomics (federal budget, deficits, taxes,the federal reserve system, economic growth, and monetary policies), income distribution and economic justice, and the changing global economy will be examined. METHODS: This course will be taught by the Paideia method. Paideia comes from the Greek "pais," meaning educating the whole child by teaching thinking and communication skills. The class time will be divided into three unequal parts: time spent learning knowledge, time spent sharpening communication skills, and time spent discussing subject matter. MAJOR COURSE REQUIREMENTS: 1] Read all texts and supplementary books listed below as well as additional readings assigned as the course progresses. 2] Present one debate (senior project). 3] Present four-six presentations (live and/or video). 4] Write numerous analytical, creative, and personal essays. 5] Write essay examinations, one each grading period. 6] Write a personal essay for college entrance. 7] Take advanced placement examinations in American Government and English literature. 8] Twenty percent of the course grade will be based upon participation in class discussion; the remaining eighty percent of the course grade will be based upon written assignments. BOOK LIST FOR POLITICAL THEORY/ENGLISH LITERATURE:
Poetry, short stories, and essays of various periods and themes will be interspersed throughout the curriculum. BOOK LIST FOR AMERICAN GOVERNMENT/ECONOMICS: Government by the People (2002) – Burns, Peltason, Cronin American Government; Continuity and Change (2006) – O'Connor, Sabato Economics, Annual Editions – Schlesinger and Beeson, editors A variety of supplementary reading materials (300+ handouts) from newspapers, periodicals, and books will also be assigned to enrich the textbook assignments and to provide varying viewpoints. CLASS RULES1. Always bring a notebook and a pen to class. Your notebook should be the three-ringed type; its purpose is to store readings. 2. When you are absent be sure to see Ms. Joe and Ms. Wolfe upon your return to receive make-up work. You will be given one day for each day you were absent to complete the missed work without penalty. 3. Be attentive: pay attention to directions, listen carefully to lectures, and participate in class discussions. 4. If you have anything to contribute to class discussion, you will be expected to raise your hand for recognition. 5. Use study time in class constructively, not to chat, etc. 6. Do not ask to leave the class unless it is a real emergency. 7. Be punctual (in your seat when the bell rings)! Students who cannot regularly make it to class by 7:25 A.M. will be dropped from the Paideia Program. SCHOLARSHIP GRADE: 1. Scholarship grade is based on a point system. It is important that you complete every assignment in this kind of system. The more points you have, the higher your grade will be. 2. Percentage of total points and resultant letter grades will be computed as follows: 90-100% = A 80- 89% = B 70- 79% = C 60- 69% = D 0- 59% = F 3. Twenty percent of each marking period's grade will be based upon oral participation in class discussion.4. Semester grade will be computed as follows: First marking period grade = 30% of the semester grade Second marking period grade = 30% of the semester grade Third marking period grade = 40% of the semester grade 5. Students who do not complete the week's assignments will be required to attend "Responsibility Room" on Friday afternoon between 3:45 and 6:00. During that time students will be required to complete missed work. No student will be allowed to turn in make-up work at the end of the grading periods. CITIZENSHIP GRADE: 1. Citizenship grade will be based upon: * ability to use class time constructively * ability to cooperate with and respect classmates * punctuality ATTENDANCE: 1. Good attendance usually results in optimum learning. Students and their parents should know that AP students are STRONGLY ADVISED NOT to take vacations when classes are in session. If you plan to visit colleges, please use scheduled breaks — Thanksgiving, Winter Break, Spring Break. 2.

Lenovo's smartphone and tablet sales overtake its PC sales
Despite ranking as the top PC vendor
CHINESE COMPUTER MAKER Lenovo's global mobile sales have overtaken its PC sales, despite the firm ranking as the top PC vendor in the industry, its financial results for its first fiscal quarter of 2014 have revealed.
Lenovo's first quarter financial results announced today included a record $8.8bn in revenue and $174m net profit, an increase of 23 percent over the previous quarter.
The most notable figures, however, were Lenovo's combined smartphone and tablet sales, which overtook those of PCs, rising 105 percent in the first quarter to $1.2bn.
"Lenovo's combined sales of smartphones and tablets surpassed PCs for the first time ever during the quarter, demonstrating the momentum of these two businesses," the company said in a statement.
"During the first quarter, Lenovo became the world's fourth largest smartphone supplier and recorded the fastest growth among the top five vendors, growing 132 percent."
Around 42 percent of Lenovo's total sales come from its native China, where the company's chiefly Android based phones and tablets sell better than they do overseas.
Lenovo isn't the only OEM that has seen improvements in mobile over PC sales recently. Taiwanese firm Acer announced last week that it will shift focus towards Android and less on Windows 8 devices moving forward, after seeing better sales of mobile products, namely tablets.
"We are trying to grow our non-Windows business as soon as possible," Acer president Jim Wong told investors in a conference call.
The news came just days after Gartner released a report that established that PC shipments declined 19.8 percent over the last year in Western Europe and 13 percent in the UK.
Lenovo was the only PC maker that managed to boost sales from the second quarter of last year to the same quarter this year, with an increase in sales of 18.9 percent in Western Europe and 28.6 percent in the UK.
An International Data Corp (IDC) report released the previous week also backed up Lenovo's first quarter financial report, claiming that the firm had seen tablet shipments increase from 400,000 to 1.5 million year on year, while showing that Acer's tablet shipments also expanded, from 0.4 milion to 1.4 million in the second quarter. However, overall, IDC said that global tablet sales had slowed. µ

On the Eve: The Jews of Europe Before the Second World War (Paperback)Bernard Wasserstein
Paperback Published: 23/05/2013
- In stock
Click & Collect From your local shop
This is the portrait of a world on the eve of its destruction. Bernard Wasserstein presents a disturbing interpretation of the collapse of European Jewish civilization even before the Nazi onslaught and World War Two. In this revisionist account of modern European Jewry, Wasserstein shows how the harsh realities of the age devastated the lives of communities and individuals. By 1939, the Jews faced an existential crisis that was as much the result of internal decay as of external attack. Ranging from Vilna ('Jerusalem of Lithuania') to Salonica with its Judeo-Espanol-speaking stevedores and singers, and beyond, the book's focus is squarely on the Jews themselves rather than their persecutors. Wasserstein's aim is to 'breathe life into dry bones.' Based on vast research, written with compassion and empathy, and enlivened by dry wit, On the Eve paints a vivid and shocking picture of the European Jews in their final hour.

In her latest blog behind the scenes at the Lady Lever Art Gallery South End redevelopment project Angelica Vanasse gives us an insight in to her work with local schools and explains how their input will form part of the new displays opening in Spring 2016.
The South End development project at the Lady Lever Art Gallery isn't just about the incredible restoration and conservation of the galleries, but also about developing relationships with local schools and community groups. As part of the project, year 10 students from Prenton High School for Girls recently reinterpreted Wedgwood pottery from the Gallery's collections in the form of miniature porcelain sculptures. Their tiny creations will be used as part of the new displays in the South End, bringing a fresh perspective to our displays when they reopen next year. Read more…

The Encyclopedia of Early Earth
A Novel
Isabel Greenberg
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
A beautifully illustrated book of imaginary fables about Earth's early--and lost--history.
Before our history began, another--now forgotten--civilization thrived. The people who roamed Early Earth were much like us: curious, emotional, funny, ambitious, and vulnerable. In this series of illustrated and linked tales, Isabel Greenberg chronicles the explorations of a young man as he paddles from his home in the North Pole to the South Pole. There, he meets his true love, but their romance is ill-fated. Early Earth's unusual and finicky polarity means the lovers can never touch.
As intricate and richly imagined as the work of Chris Ware, and leavened with a dry wit that rivals Kate Beaton's in Hark! A Vagrant, Isabel Greenberg's debut will be a welcome addition to the thriving graphic novel genre.

Kalamazoo shooter bound over to Circuit Court
Kalamazoo mass shooting suspect Jason Brian Dalton has been bound over to Circuit Court for trial. That's the result of a hearing in District Court today. Dalton had to be removed from the hearing after an outburst at a witness. He's accused of killing six people and seriously injuring two others February 20th.
Seventeen-year-old Alexis Cornish was among those who testified today. She watched as her boyfriend and his father were shot to death at a car dealership. Cornish says she saw Dalton approach them, then pulled out a gun and started shooting:
Dalton was in court as the hearing began. But he was dragged away by officers after yelling at shooting survivor Tiana Carruthers as she testified, causing her to break down on the witness stand. She finished her testimony after a recess.
Dalton removed from courtroom following outbreak
A Kalamazoo County District judge says there's enough evidence to send mass shooting suspect Jason Brian Dalton to trial in Circuit Court. The ruling came today (Friday) after a hearing where Dalton had to be removed after an outburst. He's accused of fatally shooting six people and seriously wounding two more as he drove around Kalamazoo February 20. Prosecutors called several witnesses, including shooting survivor Tiana Carruthers.
As Carruthers testified, Dalton began to talk. Later he tried to stand up, causing Carruthers to break down on the witness stand.
Sheriff's deputies dragged Dalton out of the courtroom and he watched the rest of the hearing from jail via a video link.

State task force member speaks about Flint water crisis
A task force appointed by the Governor has laid most of the blame for the Flint water crisis on bad decisions by state departments like the Department of Environmental Quality.
Task force member Chris Kolb says the D-E-Q completely missed the boat when it allowed Flint not to use corrosion control for its drinking water.
The report also criticized the state's emergency manager law, because it allowed non-elected officials to ignore public complaints about the water.

The League says state revenue sharing with cities dropped more than 50 percent between 2002 and 2012, even though state revenue grew about 30 percent in that time.
State task force puts responsibility for Flint water crisis on Michigan environmental officials
Michigan Governor Rick Snyder has repeatedly claimed that Flint's lead contaminated water crisis was caused by all levels of government. But today, a task force that he appointed called those claims "inappropriate official public relations efforts."

Bernie makes final pitch in Kalamazoo
About 3200 people turned out to hear Democratic primary candidate Bernie Sanders in Kalamazoo this morning. At the Wings Event Center, Sanders told the crowd that he'll work to make things better for working people and students if he's elected president. He drew cheers with proposals for a $15 minimum wage, free tuition at public universities and lower costs for prescription drugs. Sanders also called on the US to reinvest in its aging roads and water systems. He says the money to fix them could be raised by closing corporate tax loopholes.

Kalamazoo Shooting Update
The man suspected of shooting people at random in Kalamazoo nearly two weeks ago will undergo a competency exam. That's to determine whether Jason Brian Dalton is fit to go to trial on murder, assault and weapons charges. Dalton is accused of killing six people and wounding two more as he drove around Kalamazoo February 20. Today [On Thursday], Kalamazoo County Prosecutor Jeff Getting said the psychiatric exam has nothing to do with whether Dalton could plead insanity if he goes to trial. It's about his state of mind now.
An update on the results of the exam has been scheduled in court for May 10, but Getting says it's possible it will be done before that.
Kalamazoo mass for victims of shootings
St. Augustine Cathedral in Kalamazoo held a noontime mass today to pray for the victims of Saturday's shooting. Margaret Huesa-Lords (HUE-suh) was there to honor her friend Mary Jo Nye who was killed at the Cracker Barrel restaurant in Texas Township. Huesa-Lords says she's still in shock.

Accused Kalamazoo killer arraigned in district court
The man accused of killing six people and seriously wounding two others in a mass shooting in Kalamazoo on Saturday has been arraigned in district court. Jason Brian Dalton is charged with six counts of murder. He also faces assault and felony weapons charges. Dalton, who appeared through a video feed, sat silently during the proceedings with a blank expression. Michigan State Police Detective [First Lieutenant] Chuck Christensen says Dalton has been cooperative but "stoic" when questioned by police.
In a probable cause hearing today, officials said Dalton has admitted to "taking lives." Dalton is alleged to have driven around Kalamazoo County Saturday night, shooting people at random in three locations. His next court appearance is set for March 3.
Amish traditional lifestyle evolving and changing
An Amish community modernizes in Michigan: Goodbye horse and buggy, hello minivans and power tools
The area around Mt. Pleasant and Clare is kind of like Michigan's Great Plains. It's really flat and there is a lot of land and a lot of farms and fields. If you're driving up US-127 and need to stop for gas around the area, it wouldn't be unusual to see an Amish man with a top hat and beard traveling by horse and buggy around town. Continue reading

Former Flint Emergency Manager fails to appear before Congress
Former Flint Emergency Manager Darnell Earley failed to appear before Congress for a hearing on Flint's lead contaminated drinking water this morning (Wed).
Officials from the U-S Environmental Protection Agency and the state of Michigan officials testified in front of a congressional committee in Washington.
Representative Jason Chaffetz chairs the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. He says Earley's invitation to appear as a witness before the committee was not optional.
We're calling on the US Marshals to hunt him down and give him that subpoena. Today we are issuing a new subpoena. He will appear and he will be here to do a deposition later this month.
Chafettz says Congress will also issue a subpoena for Susan Hedman…the former E-P-A manager for Region Five.
He says she is also expected to appear before the committee later this month.

Since 2002 Perimeter Institute has been recording seminars, conference talks, and public outreach events using video cameras installed in our lecture theatres. Perimeter now has 7 formal presentation spaces for its many scientific conferences, seminars, workshops and educational outreach activities, all with advanced audio-visual technical capabilities. Recordings of events in these areas are all available On-Demand from this Video Library and on Perimeter Institute Recorded Seminar Archive (PIRSA). PIRSA is a permanent, free, searchable, and citable archive of recorded seminars from relevant bodies in physics. This resource has been partially modelled after Cornell University's arXiv.org.
We investigate the quantum trajectories of jointly monitored transmon qubits, tracking measurement-induced entanglement creation as a continuous process. The quantum trajectories naturally split into low and high entanglement classes corresponding to partial parity collapse. We theoretically calculate the distribution of concurrence at any given time and show good agreement with the constructed histogram of measured concurrence trajectories. The distribution exhibits a sharp cut-off in the high concurrence limit, defining a maximal concurrence boundary.
In the device-independent paradigm, the labeling of parties/inputs/outputs has no physical meaning and thus the behavior of the system should be studied up to symmetry. We conduct the first formal study of relabelings appearing in Bell scenarios. The talk includes a review of previous works, a definition of Bell relabeling groups illustrated by examples, and applications, including the classification of Bell inequalities, the generalization of binary correlators to d outcomes and the computation of exact bounds using the NPA hierarchy.
We have great certainty on how gravity works around our solar system: General Relativity (GR) has been found to be very accurate at these small scales. On large scales though, we still have a considerable lack of understanding about the evolution of the universe, and its constituents. While the LCDM model is in good agreement with cosmological data, this might change in the future. For this reason, we need to test GR on these scales.
Questions of nonlinear stability in global AdS space have recently received a significant amount of attention, both as an interesting problem in mathematical general relativity and nonlinear dynamics, and in relation to thermalization studies within the AdS/CFT paradigm. Working with nonlinear perturbation theory (the main technique available for analytic studies in this area) requires a thorough understanding of the properties of linearized AdS fields'
We discuss how to formulate a quantum field theory of dark energy interacting with dark matter. We show that the proposals based on the assumption that dark matter is made up of heavy particles with masses which are very sensitive to the value of dark energy are strongly constrained. Quintessence-generated long range forces and radiative stability of the quintessence potential require that such dark matter and dark energy are completely decoupled.

Well, I am guessing I should bring apology for using fool language in the last post, but I wrote it the "mroning after", so yes, the feelings were raw. I truly didn't have more words during the mayham than those I used, however, this is also quite normal for me in any race. Read at your own risk.
I am limping on my left leg. No science, something is hurting. I tried to participate in a track workout on Tuesday, but after 3rd 800m bailed out. For once I did a smart thing - and only because there was a guy who was injured and jogged around. So we jogged together. I'll get that massage tonight and take it from there.
Alex passed his drug test. We were supposed to have it done randomly every month, but I think we were (I was) scared, then I finally bought it and couldn't bring myself to do it. But all is good when it ends up good. He was clean. Forever it will be our point of frightening.
Stephen won his second boxing competition in Warm Springs, OR. Boys had fun traveling, but the town (Indian village) is a sad site of poor people, very sad one.
As always, after a race, when body rids of endorhine, depression comes. It's been described. Why it's all happening, why it's needed, if needed at all? What is that I want in general? I don't know. I mean, all the regular things everybody wants - health for family members, kids to grow up good people, little love at home, good friends, a roof and food under it. Something's missing. My good friend from Russia just found me - after years passed of our high school graduation. It is bitter sweet. I want to go home - back home - and have nothing of what I have now. I want to crawl into a cave and not talk to anyone, not see anyone, not be responsible for anyone. I want to drop it all, get in a car and drive where my eyes will lead me, stop when I want to, and then drive again.
But as Gail says, this, too, shall pass.
When something bad happens, you have three choices: let it define you, let it destroy you, or let it strengthen you.
The heart of the difference is not ability or even talent, but desire
The secret of life is that there is no secret of life. It's all hard work. Yet you still have to find the right works and be free to choose direction that is best for you.
The purpose of life is to discover and develop your gift. The meaning of life comes from sharing your gift with others. - David Viscott

pipeline burst cache
A pipeline burst cache is a cache or storage area for a computer processor that is designed to be read from or written to in a pipelining succession of four data transfers (or bursts) in which later bursts can start to flow or transfer before the first burst has arrived at the processor. A pipeline burst cache is often used for the static RAM (static random access memory) that serves as the L1 and L2 cache in a computer. It was introduced in 1996 with Intel's Pentium series of processors. A pipeline burst cache is an alternative to an asynchronous cache or a synchronous burst cache.
5 Data Storage Technologies to Watch in 2016
For the past 13 years, the experts at SearchStorage.com have honored the best and brightest technologies for the upcoming year. As always, we're proud to present a batch of technologies we believe will make a big impact on the data storage market.
By submitting your email address, you agree to receive emails regarding relevant topic offers from TechTarget and its partners. You can withdraw your consent at any time. Contact TechTarget at 275 Grove Street, Newton, MA.
You also agree that your personal information may be transferred and processed in the United States, and that you have read and agree to the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy.
In most personal computer processors, data is transferred along a path (or bus) that is 64 bits (8 bytes) wide. Since each line of storage in a cache is 32 bytes long, it takes four successive transfers to transfer the storage line. With a pipeline burst cache, the first transfer takes 3 of the processor's clock speed cycles, and the remaining three transfers take only one cycle each (since no time is required to locate the storage location for the remaining transfers). The adjectives pipelining and burst describe the idea that once the storage location has been addressed and accessed and the first read or write transfer is started, the subsequent transfers come rapidly in discrete bursts down (or up) the pipe or data path. The timing for the total transfer of a storage line using pipeline burst cache is usually shown as "3-1-1-1" or a total of 6 clock cycles.

I have 3 Havanese (dogs) and enjoy cooking for them as much I do everyone else! These were interesting to make and inexpensive. I cut them into bite-sized treats and froze them as it made a lot that way. Just had to mark the container so noone thinks they are brownie bites! The dogs enjoy them!
I made this for my liver lovin' pup and she LOVES it! My only problem was that it was a little difficult to get out of the pan and I may have over cooked it a little. Next time I think I will make it in a jelly roll pan since I am cutting it into 1/2" cubes for training treats. It made about 200 small cubes in my 9x13 pan which I divided into quart sized bags. Even using organic chicken livers and eggs this is MUCH cheaper that the store bought variety with no funking/questionable ingredients. AWESOME!
My cats (ALL of them) aren't worth mentioning! They eat their Science Diet crunchies. They won't eat any other brand, or commercial cat treats, or chicken or beef or liver. Tuna is a far distant second as far as food goes. Cats! (Snort) Am I trained or what. The dogs though loved them. Anything that might be people stuff is fine by them! They were underfoot, slavering and wagging, the whole time these were baking. Bergy, my dogs love us!

Offering clarificationAugust 30,2013
Offering clarification
Let me try to explain my 2009 proposal for dealing with the uninsured in terms that Jerry Kilcourse can grasp.
If/when you have occasion to consume medical services, you will be responsible for paying the cost, just like you are after receiving a haircut.
You can choose to gamble on continued good health, or set aside dollars to pay for future services, or plan to pass the hat to enable you to pay for what you consumed, join an HMO or a health care co-op, or buy an insurance contract whereby an insurer agrees to pay in case you incur a specified claim.
Nowhere would you face an Obamacare tax or penalty for not choosing to buying insurance. Youd face up to your own responsibility, however you chose to meet it.
What you wouldnt be able to do, however, is choose your lifestyle and risks, consume a lot of medical services, and expect the government to coerce the taxpayers into providing the money to pay your bills.

This is mine & my husband's special date place when we have a sitter. It's clean and quiet, where we can actually talk to each other with out loud music or distractions. The staff are always polite and helpful. The sushi is so fresh tasting & beautifully done. The sushimi (salmon) just melts in your mouth. We've had several cooked dishes as well, and were very pleased so I don't think you can go wrong.
