- " Anderson Estates rented a large percentage of their space to a religious group attending a performance in LA. The people were very nice but extremely noisy and made a lot of noise that lasted well over midnight. They were given the hostel rules but did not honor that one rule of after 10pm is quiet time. Other than that they really added to the group staying there, I just wish they were a bit quieter... Sleeping was a challenge while they were there. In all I enjoyed my stay at that hostel and "

Welcome to my Home Page.
Happy New Year.
Gary and I just celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary in December. We were high school sweethearts and he's still the one! It's been a wild ride and we're still a team as we work together on all our many family and community projects.
So come join us as we travel the globe and set off on one great adventure after another.
Thanks to my travels, I am a travel writer of exotic locations for top cruise magazines and deluxe in-cabin books. I am an author of Destination Romance: Romantic, Suspense Adventures. I also write Contemporary Romance and Historic U.S. Fiction. As a NYS local historian I've written several local history books.
As a romance writer I love to share my travel adventures, not only with you, the reader, but with my characters in my novels--the trouble they get into in these "fast-paced" novels with "fascinating locations" while they find themselves falling in love--think Indiana Jones meets Romancing the Stone!
As a travel writer, I never go into a country with preconceived notions of what to expect, even though I read up on the area long before we leave home. We are pleasantly surprised at the fascinating world around us.
This year we plan to go back to Germany, where our married life began all those years ago, stopping at all our old hangouts alone the Rhine and Mosel Rivers. What an opportunity.
As the historian for my hometown, l enjoy researching and especially writing about my findings. Writing local history books isn't as easy as it seems, but it is just as rewarding as my other writing projects. And, it crosses over into my novel writing as well. For example, Ribbons of Steel, a fictional historical family saga based on the great railroad strike of 1877, was released in October, 2013, in digital and book in print (check it out at Carol's Books at right).
Although traveling, writing, and researching keeps me busy, I tend to be an organized person and can work around almost anything that's thrown my way. Which allows me to enjoy family, who just happens to live close by. It also allows me to belong to several clubs and organizations in the community, and to meet and enjoy the company of friends and neighbors.
Please take a moment to wander around my website to find out more about my travels, novels, and history books.
And feel free to leave a comment.

Colorado Springs police are investigating a vandalism spree. More than 50 cars in the Rockrimmon neighborhood had their windows smashed in late Saturday night.
Police think the vandals are teenagers because witnesses told investigators they saw teenagers running around the streets and hitting some of the cars.
"It's kind of a bad way to start a Sunday morning," said Craig Johnson. His and dozens of other car windows were busted out. Some cars cannot be driven because the windshields are smashed.
"Everybody was very upset, everybody got together to talk about it," said Cheryl Patterson.
Patterson found her Jeep Cherokee's windshield smashed in. Next to the Jeep, on the sidewalk, she found a large, heavy rock. Patterson thinks the vandals used the rock to break her windshield. "It's very nerve-racking," said Patterson. "I thought this was a safe neighborhood, I hope it still is."
Another victim found a big rock sitting on the hood of their car, with almost all of the glass in the car broken. "Whoever did it, I don't care if they're 14, they need to go to jail," said Randy Shumard, who has been vandalized in the past.
If caught, the vandals will face felony criminal mischief charges due to the cost of the vandalism being in above $10,000.
Investigators tell 11 News they're looking for a group of teenagers. If you know anything about the vandalism spree, you're asked to call Crime Stoppers at 634-STOP.

Bilco Roof Access Hatch Stands to Attention at RAF Mildenhall
Bilco Roof Access Hatch Stands to Attention at RAF Mildenhall
A Bilco 1270mm x 1820mm D-50T roof access hatch has been installed on The Water Well Building at RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk. The Water Well Building is built into the landscape and houses a borehole, which provides drinking water for the facility, and Bilco's D-50T roof access hatch is providing a convenient means of access for maintenance.
"We have used Bilco products a number of times in the past and know that we will be supplied with a quality product that meets the demands of its environment," explains Danny Galvin, Quantity Surveyor, VINCI Construction UK. "On a building where people will need to gain regular access to a space for ongoing maintenance, an access hatch that is easy to use and suitable for moving large equipment through is ideal and the Bilco D-50T fitted the bill perfectly."
Compression spring operators make the D-50T easy to use, even with one hand, whilst the automatic hold-open arm locks mean that the doors will remain in the open position whilst equipment and personnel pass through the hatch safely. The D-50T roof access hatch is built from corrosion resistant materials to provide many years of dependable performance that ensure that weather tightness and energy efficiency is never compromised. The D-50T roof access hatch is available in a range of sizes to suit any application.

Skip to comments.Nothing new, normal or funny about NBCs The New Normal
Posted on 09/25/2012 2:53:51 PM PDT by NYer
click here to read article
Love to see the male-famale audience breakdown for this thing.
Freegards, thanks for all the pings
I absolutely refuse to watch one second of this show.
Via the same impulse that makes us look at gruesome wrecks on the highway, I watched the first episode of this thing last week, and I've never seen anything on TV quite so repulsive. Its total awfulness is kind of an achievement.
There is so much homosexual propaganda on TV these days. But no matter how hard they try, it still won't be normal.
HOMOSEXUAL, because there's nothing GAY about it.
It will be canceled within 1 month.
Yawn....another show that purports to be a realistic slice of American life. Next.
The ratings were unfortunately high. #18 and #20 on Nielsen
it is not enough for it to be cancelled.
it must become so toxic no advertiser will touch it.
it must become so toxic as to end the careers of all performers involved.
attack the advertisers.
no ads, no show.
I'm trying to think of something on network TV that isn't spiritually adrift.
There isn't much.
I heard one of the guys interviewed and he pretty much said they intend it as indoctrination for us benighted straights who don't get the gay "family" thing.
Anti-Christian blasphemy. We should riot. How can the President allow this after his UN speech?
CBS' "Partners" s/was about what??
Maybe not laugh, exactly. It's more like that vague pre-laugh feeling you get sometimes when you realize someone's telling a joke and you inadvertently shift the muscles in your face and chest in laugh-preparation. Then you realize it was a false alarm and go back to sitting there bored.
Other than that, it was pretty lame.
To be followed by another and another and another...
I decided some time ago that the expression, "the new normal," signifies nothing more than the old SINFUL.
"It is because of the hasty and superficial conversation with God that the sense of sin is so weak and that no motives have power to help you to hate and flee from sin as you should." ....GK Chesterton
That garbage is still on the air? I haven't seen one second of it, but from what I hear the ratings for it are in the toilet
To be canceled one after the other and the other.
GLEE is a hateful gay show too
wish it'd get canceled
Until they get the right mix.
Playing the liberals' view of an intolerant conservative is what had Ellen "Barkin at the moon" sending all those "tweeds" (twitter screeds) about how much she hates conservatives before the show first aired to make sure no one thought she was really conservative.
They mix won't matter when people tell the sponsors of the networks that they will boycott their products if they continue to sponsor this filth. The power of the $$ is supreme here.
"It will be canceled within 1 month."
You're probably right, Darth Vader, but don't be surprised if they prop this show up a long time because of a desire to normalize and propagandize the lifestyle.
No where near as funny as Modern Family, which like it or not... most of us have a gay couple in family.
NBC tried to ahem stuff this down viewer's throats during the Olympics. It seemed every commercial break they ran an ad for this creepy show. I can only hope it sinks to bottom of the Sea of Crud that constitutes network primetime tv.
That's why we hit the sponsors hard.
"The ratings were unfortunately high. #18 and #20 on Nielsen"
Let's see the ratings when the give it a try or two people have left and all the other new shows kick in.
No TV in my house. My kids are happy with the videos we allow them. I myself am a confirmed TV snob. I have not seen anything (other than the first few episodes of Scrubs) in the last 35 years. Have continued to get quite an amount of reading done. News via web. What else does one need?
OK, truth be told, one or two episodes of Seinfeld, the occasional football game, golf tournament, Triple Crown races,the odd World Series, and about five episodes of The Voice last year.
"No TV in my house."
I threw my TV away during the OJ trial. How many Freepers have likewise thrown it out or stopped watching?
I choose to fight not against the breakdown of the family nor sexual norms but the language. It should be the new normalcy or the new normality. "Normal" is an adjective.
Will not even last 1 season. Same reason Leftist talk radio always fails. NO one wants to tune in for a weekly Leftist bigoted, hysteric political screed.
I hear/read this all the time; but, considering that the percentage of the population that is "gay" is under 3%, I don't think this can be true. I know, I don't have a "gay couple" in my family.
Ah, no...in my 64 years I've known one queer.. a cousin who contracted AIDS in the USN and died a number of years ago...other than that I know of now other queers in my family...both sides and extended.
Have not thrown out my one 15" flat screen...but my wife has caught me a time or two about to throw my shoe through the infernal device...
"I heard one of the guys interviewed and he pretty much said they intend it as indoctrination for us benighted straights who don't get the gay "family" thing."
"Friends" beat them to it over a decade ago (none of the children, including those added as the show "jumped the shark", lived with both of their biological parents).
These shows have about as much impact as the "Cosby Show" (none); networks have to go to increasingly desperate lengths to stop people from turning to a PC instead of the TV for entertainment...
"I choose to fight not against the breakdown of the family nor sexual norms but the language."
We should never let the words "deviant", "sodomite", "pedophile" etc. disappear; I use them in discussions about "gay marriage", and you really see people reflect on it.
You're right. The Big Bang, Modern Family, it's all trash.
No wonder so many of our young people are shacking up, delaying marriage, and abandoning church. While growing up, the kids watched garbage while their parents were off pursuing their adult dreams.
You must have a very odd family. No homosexual couples in my family.
I think the best way to confront this is by parody. Create a video for the Internet entitled "The New Abnormal", showing two (very made up to conceal their identities) actors who portray a flamboyant and a leather homosexual who supposedly live on Castro Street in San Francisco.
They adopt babies out of spite to the "breeders", then utterly neglect and abuse them (dolls, thankfully) until they "die". And then they adopt another one to meet the same fate. They know nothing about child rearing and care less, even now and then killing one of the babies because they cried when one of the homosexuals was in a bad mood or hungover.
The third character is a bureaucrat at the state child protective services, also homosexual, who describes in great detail to the distraught women giving up their babies for adoption, how their child will go to a loving heterosexual couple. Lying, of course, before tossing another baby to the homosexual men to kill.
In any event, the homosexuals would probably react more violently than the Muslims have done to the most recent Mohammed video.
Once you know it's a sewer pipe, it all makes sense....

Product Description
From Amazon
The plans of Adolf Hitler and the German Nazis to create a Nordic "master race" are often looked upon as a horrific but fairly isolated effort. Less notice has historically been given to the American eugenics movement of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Although their methods were less violent, the methodology and rationale which the American eugenicists employed, as catalogued in Edwin Black's Against the Weak, were chilling nonetheless and, in fact, influential in the mindset of Hitler himself. Funded and supported by several well-known wealthy donors, including the Rockefeller and Carnegie families and Alexander Graham Bell, the eugenicists believed that the physically impaired and "feeble-minded" should be subject to forced sterilization in order to create a stronger species and incur less social spending. These "defective" humans generally ended up being poorer folks who were sometimes categorized as such after shockingly arbitrary or capricious means such as failing a quiz related to pop culture by not knowing where the Pierce Arrow was manufactured. The list of groups and agencies conducting eugenics research was long, from the U.S. Army and the Departments of Labor and Agriculture to organizations with names like the "American Breeders Association." Black's detailed research into the history of the American eugenics movement is admirably extensive, but it is in the association between the beliefs of some members of the American aristocracy and Hitler that the book becomes most chilling. Black goes on to trace the evolution of eugenic thinking as it evolves into what is now called genetics. And while modern thinkers have thankfully discarded the pseudo-science of eugenics, such controversial modern issues as human cloning make one wonder how our own era will be remembered a hundred years hence. --John Moe --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Publishers Weekly
In the first half of the 20th century, more than 60,000 Americans-poor, uneducated, members of minorities-were forcibly sterilized to prevent them from passing on supposedly defective genes. This policy, called eugenics, was the brainchild of such influential people as Rockefellers, Andrew Carnegie and Margaret Sanger. Black, author of the bestselling IBM and the Holocaust, set out to show "the sad truth of how the scientific rationales that drove killer doctors at Auschwitz were first concocted on Long Island" at the Carnegie Institution's Cold Spring Harbor complex. Along the way, he offers a detailed and heavily footnoted history that traces eugenics from its inception to America's eventual, post-WWII retreat from it, complete with stories of the people behind it, their legal battles, their detractors and the tragic stories of their victims. Black's team of 50 researchers have done an impressive job, and the resulting story is at once shocking and gripping. But the publisher's claim that Black has uncovered the truth behind America's "dirty little secret" is a bit overstated. There is a growing library of books on eugenics, including Daniel Kevles's In the Name of Eugenics and Ellen Chesler's biography of Margaret Sanger, Woman of Valor. Black's writing tends to fluctuate from scholarly to melodramatic and apocalyptic (and sometimes arrogant), but the end result is an important book that will add to the public's understanding of this critical chapter of American history.

What were the factors that led up to The Holocaust? Anti-semitism and racism of course, but there was nothing new about those. The other much overlooked factor is a false science.
Its methods were "guesswork, gossip, falsified information and polysyllabic academic arrogance" justified by a copious collection of records and "mathematical acrobatics". It was advocated by esteemed professors and elite universities. It was funded by the wealth of Carnegie, Rockefeller, and railroad magnate Harriman among others. It was endorsed by big names like Alexander Graham Bell, famous for inventing the telephone. It was sanctified by politicians, legislators, educators, social workers, and judges including Supreme Court Judge Oliver Wendall Holmes. Its philosophy claimed to draw on the work of the well-known monk Mendel and his experiments on the heredity of pea pods. The writings of Thomas Malthus and Herbert Spencer also influenced it. By the way, it was Spencer, not Darwin, who coined the phrase "Survival of the fittest". It was Darwin's cousin, Francis Galton, who gave this pseudo-science its name: Eugenics.
It was also Galton, still today revered as a medical innovator, who suggested "wed[ding] ... biology to government action" starting with "a highly regulated marriage licensing process." Galton, too, was the one who advocated twin studies of mengele infamy. Galton's passion was collecting statistics, a field that today dominates medicine. Black calls him "a clever and compulsive counter".Read more ›
The book's most dramatic and controversial conclusion is that the American eugenics movement fueled the triumph of Nazism in Germany and thereby helped bring on the Holocaust. As Black writes in his Introduction, "the scientific rationales that drove killer doctors at Auschwitz were first concocted on Long Island at the Carnegie Institution's eugenic enterprise at Cold Spring Harbor." To his credit he provides a great deal of evidence to make his contention plausible, if not totally convincing.
The extremes to which the Nazis took their eugenics--euthansia killings of "unfit" Germans and the extermination of Jews, Gypsies, and others--gave eugenics a bad name from which it never recovered. This important book sheds much needed light on one of the darkest and most bizarre chapters of American history.
Charles Patterson, Ph.D., author of ETERNAL TREBLINKA: Our Treatment of Animals and the Holocaust
Black's narrative traces the development of the international eugenics movement from its origins in the study of genetics starting with the rediscovery of the pioneering work in genetics of Mendel in the late 19th century to its heyday in the United States with the founding of the private Eugenics Record Office (ERO) in 1910, and the forced sterilizations of tens of thousands of people deemed human waste by the movement, to the movement's demise in the smoldering ruins of the concentration camps of Nazi occupied Europe. The term "eugenics" was first coined by a British mathematician named Francis J. Galton, but it was in the United States that the notion of genetically engineering a master Nordic race became a well funded movement. The eugenics movement received the support of some of the nation's wealthiest families, including Carnegie, Harriman and Rockefeller. In this sense, the eugenics movement was the quintessential campaign against the poor and funded by the rich.
At the center of the eugenics story in the United States is the movement's two most ardent exponents, Charles Davenport and Harry Laughlin of the Eugenics Record Office. It was these two individuals who lead the movement and never wavered from their support for ending the blood lines of people they deemed "unfit.Read more ›

In reply to Fred McLean • Mar 12, 2013
I was walking in the woods yesterday and it was quite hard. There were areas that I was knee deep in the snow and I wasn't sinking all the way to the ground either. We have a pretty good base of snow here yet....

The final saw Holland playing Spain, two European colonizers on African territory. Before the game Nelson Mandela's grandson complained that FIFA had put "extreme pressure" on the elderly hero to attend, despite the fact that he was in mourning for the loss of a great-granddaughter. "Their focus is on having this world icon in the stadium, yet not really paying attention to our customs and traditions as a people and as a family."

Stringent traffic rules prohibiting open-air performances have cut the rope-walkers' lifeline. They used to display their skills on a high rope tied between two poles in open areas such as roads, parks or squares. This is no longer allowed. Bribing the traffic police can sometimes work, but the rope-walkers earn so little they can rarely justify an expense like that. Kishan Bharti, 26, who used to be a rope-walker now works as a tall man in the shopping malls and fairs around the city.

In Havana, the past year has been marked by a parade of bold-faced names from the north — John Kerry reopening the United States Embassy; Andrew Cuomo bringing a delegation of American business leaders; celebrities ranging from Joe Torre, traveling on behalf of Major League Baseball to oversee an exhibition game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, to Jimmy Buffett, said to be considering opening one of his Margaritaville restaurants there. All this culminated with a three-day trip in March by Barack Obama, the first American president to visit Cuba since Calvin Coolidge in 1928. But to those who know the city well, perhaps nothing said as much about the transformation of political relations between the United States and Cuba that began in December 2014 as a concert in the Tribuna Antiimperialista.

text: school funding Year-Round Schools Planning How To Stay Open Without State Funding By Dusty Rhodes • Jun 20, 2016 Flickr user Brent Hoard "ECU School of Education Class Room" (CC BY 2.0) The state budget impasse has forced schools to come up with plans for how they'll open next year without state funding. It's a decision which schools that operate year-round have to confront sooner than most. Some school districts designate just a handful of buildings to operate year-round, but in Rock Island, every school is on that schedule. The school board has considered cost-saving measures, like eliminating athletics and band, as well as debt options like opening a line of credit. Superintendents Blast Illinois Governor On School Funding By Associated Press • Jun 6, 2016 Flickr user / alamosbasement "old school" (CC BY 2.0) More than a dozen school superintendents have written a letter to Republican Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner accusing him of playing politics with education funding. School leaders including from Chicago, Peoria and East Moline sent the letter Monday to Rauner. They say schools won't open on time and call Illinois' funding formula the nation's most "regressive." They also claim stand-alone school funding bills Republicans introduced at session's end continue unequal spending. Senate Sends Second School-Funding Revamp To House By Associated Press • May 27, 2016 Flickr user Brent Hoard "ECU School of Education Class Room" (CC BY 2.0) The Illinois Senate has approved a second method for revamping school funding just days before the Legislature's scheduled adjournment. The proposal by Democratic Sen. Kimberly Lightford of Maywood would rewrite the state-aid formula beginning with the 2017-2018 school year with an interim funding and fairness boost for his fall. It passed 31-18. The interim plan would establish a funding "foundation" for each district similar to Bunker Hill Democratic Sen. Andy Manar's plan the Senate OK'd this month. Illinois Schools Warn Of Closures, Layoffs Without Budget By Associated Press • May 10, 2016 Flickr user Brent Hoard "ECU School of Education Class Room" (CC BY 2.0) Illinois superintendents warned of school closures and staff layoffs as they implored state lawmakers to pass a budget to give them certainty for the fall. Education funding is the only portion of the budget for the current year that Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner signed, meaning schools have largely been spared the consequences of the budget impasse. But superintendents from districts including Kankakee, Moline, and Streator expressed worry Tuesday that there's no agreement for next year yet. Illinois Senate Passes $454 Million More For Colleges By Associated Press • May 5, 2016 Jenna Dooley / WNIJ A $454 million bill to increase funding for financially struggling Illinois colleges and universities has cleared the state Senate. Lawmakers approved the bill on a near unanimous vote and sent the measure to the House on Thursday. Democrats who control the Legislature and Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner have been unable to agree on a budget since July 1, and higher education institutions have been forced to lay off staff. Last month, lawmakers used $600 million left over in an education fund to help colleges make it through the summer. Five Illinois Schools To Receive $20M In Federal Grant By Associated Press • Jan 20, 2016 Flickr user / alamosbasement "old school" (CC BY 2.0) Five Illinois schools will receive more than $20 million in federal grants over the next five years to help improve student performance and ensure students are better prepared for college. State Superintendent of Education Tony Smith announced the School Improvement Grant winners yesterday. They are: Matheny Elementary in Springfield, Sandoval High School in Sandoval, Gage Park High School in Chicago, Gordon Bush Elementary in East St. Louis and Kennedy Middle School in Rockford. School Funding Reform Tops State Senate List By Rich Egger • Apr 13, 2015 AIRSS Illinois lawmakers return to work this week, and one of the decisions they face is whether to pass a school funding reform plan. David Ardrey, executive director of the Association of Illinois Rural and Small Schools, says it's important to keep the issue in the forefront until the state's school funding system is changed. "I don't think this conversation is going to go away," Ardrey said. "Will it pass this year? I don't know. Will it pass in this state some day? I think it will." School Funding Proposals Considered by Illinois Lawmakers By Dusty Rhodes • Mar 19, 2015 Illinois lawmakers are also considering proposals to rewrite the way the state funds public schools. Marguerite Roza directs the Edunomics Lab at Georgetown University. Roza gave the State School Board two keys for a good funding formula: Keep it generic, and tie every dollar to students instead of programs. Board members plan to discuss Roza's recommendations at their meeting next month. A New Plan For Illinois School Funding Formula Arises By Dusty Rhodes • Feb 13, 2015 A new plan to change the school funding formula is emerging in the legislature. Jason Barickman, a Republican state senator from Bloomington, plans to introduce a bill, which he believes will be supported by Governor Bruce Rauner. "Think about something else he said yesterday, in the context of his criminal justice reforms. In announcing those reforms, the governor embraced an evidence-based model, and that's what this is." More Time Needed To Determine Funding Effect On Individual Districts By Amanda Vinicky • Apr 21, 2014 Flickr user / alamosbasement "old school" (CC BY 2.0) It'll take until mid-May -- as the legislative session is drawing to a close -- to learn which schools will win, and which will lose, under a proposed new way to fund education in Illinois. The effort to change how Illinois decides how much state money it gives each district is rooted in the belief that the current formula is outdated, and that it helps perpetuate disparities between schools in wealthy areas and poor ones. The proposed new method would make funding determinations based on need. Pages1 2 next › last »

Hi, I'm new to the forums, so hopefully this is the right place to post this sort of question. I'm looking for a search engine solution that will run on Apache with Linux OS. Within next 12 months or so, the company is changing over to Windows OS for its servers. So, the solution must be compatible with both platforms. The search engine will be used for an Intranet, so it must be server-side. I'm looking for something like what StackOverflow.com has at the top of its page. It's just a small search box and then it brings up results based on number of key matches. Something along those lines...
I'm hoping I can find something that can accomplish that and at the same time fairly easy to setup. I'm doing this for someone else who's actually in charge of the Intranet but has very little time to look into search solutions. I'll be performing the test on Wampserver & Windows 8 (my home computer).
The reasons I want it to be simple to setup are: 1. I will be unable to have access to the servers once the actual setup of the search engine begins, since I'm not part of that team... so it has to be something that would be easy enough to explain/setup without me. 2. I don't have much experience in Web Development... it's been many years and things have changes ohhhh so much. I've been more focused on C++, Java, Assembly and Python, since that's my area of interest.
Do you guys have any suggestions for me?

Typically the Fed's points should end up being spurring total employment and also creating area for healthy and balanced wage expansion. In the particular short term, the Fed should preserve providing assistance to monetary activity as well as jobs right up until we achieve a legitimate full restoration from typically the Great Depression. With regards to the Federal Reserve policy, at the minimal, this particular implies preserving short-term curiosity costs lower until income development is actually in series with the particular Fed's general inflation goals and the actual labor market place is back again to pre-Recession health and fitness. In typically the medium operate the Fed ought to:
Recognize that also the pre-Recession labor market had been far through healthy as well as continue for you to spur the actual economy for you to push joblessness down until – nevertheless not ahead of – speeding up inflationary stresses reliably come up in typically the data. Concentrate on nominal by the hour compensation expansion to end up being at very least two percent points higher than 1.65 pct trend production (meaning about 3.4 percent). Yet Has Federal Reserve Policy Helped?
Within the lengthier run, typically the Fed must use regulating powers and also not larger interest charges as typically the primary application to manage the actual speculative excessive that qualified prospects to regrettable bubbles. Presently there is continue to substantial slack in the economy and also labor market place, slack which Fed plan may support reduce. Typically the population-to-employment proportion of prime-age older people possesses reclaimed much less than fifty percent of the actual decline via the pre-Great Recession work market peak-and has already been flat regarding the very last four a few months.
To determine regardless of whether the Federal Reserve policy has any huge work hole: Work is nevertheless 3.1 million below precisely what is essential to go back to typically the labor marketplace health in which prevailed inside December the year of 2007. This labor market slack is credited to any continued limitation of mixture demand. The GDP last year continue to fell into more compared to 3 pct below quotes of probable GDP, and also even this particular "output gap" is one particular that provides improved within recent many years not simply because of powerful real-world monetary growth, yet simply since estimates involving potential GDP have recently been marked lower, fundamentally determining "economic recovery" downward. Has Federal Reserve Policy Helped Or Hurt American People?
Whenever there is usually such slack in the actual economy, personnel with less formal instructional credentials, small section workers, as well as non-college-educated personnel are most challenging hit. Intended for instance, approximately one throughout four blacks and a single in five Hispanics are generally currently discharged or underemployed. Likewise with regards to one throughout six personnel with simply a excessive school education are jobless or underemployed.

Aberdeen manager Craig Brown hailed the importance of a strong squad after his side's dominant 2-1 away victory against St Johnstone in the Clydesdale Bank Premier League.
Last year, Aberdeen underachieved thanks to an inability to create chances. Against St Johnstone they had them in abundance and should have added more than the two scored by Isaac Osbourne and Jonny Hayes.
Hayes, and youngster Ryan Fraser on the opposite wing, were a constant threat and provided the ammunition for Aberdeen to take all three points. "We've got wingers now," Brown said. "And you can see they are always wanting to get the ball across the goal."
He added: "Strikers will thrive on that if we can get crosses in and that's something we were not getting last season. I think the score doesn't quite reflect the superiority we had. We had two goals disallowed for offside, we hit the post, but I'm delighted.
"We created chances and we passed the ball through the whole team, as we have all season. We got that little bit of luck that has deserted us. Against Celtic we had no luck and then last week against Ross County we dominated but couldn't score.
"I don't want to get too carried away, but when you look at our bench it shows the quality of players that we've got. When you can have Mark Reynolds and Chris Clark on the bench, you know the squad is strong."
St Johnstone boss Steve Lomas saw his side endure a miserable afternoon.
Not only were his side outplayed, but they lost Chris Millar and Murray Davidson to injuries after starting the day without three of their main strikers.
"When it rains it pours," Lomas said, "It was just a bad day at the office. With the previous two games, even though we only took one point, there were plenty of plaudits to go around, but there were few positives to take from that."
He went on to say: "I said at half-time that if we kept a clean sheet then we would be right in it because we're always capable of creating chances. But I think if Ando [Steven Anderson] had nodded it in at the end then it would have been a bit of an injustice."

Ricin (cont.)
Ricin Medications
Antibiotics serve no role in the treatment of ricin poisoning, as this is not an infectious condition.
Ricin Surgery
Surgical care is not necessary for exposure to ricin, unless the ricin was injected. In this instance, the injection site should be treated to assess whether a foreign object is present. If so, the object should be surgically removed.

Everything you need to escape is in front of you… freedom at your fingertips. There's only one catch… Find a Chamber Near You… The Chambers Esteemed professor of modern world history, David Morgan D.A., has been called upon numerous times, by the FBI, as both a consultant and expert witness, in a string of recent historical document theft cases. A new link has been established between each of these cases and, given the historical significance of the stolen items, it is now believed that Prof. Morgan, himself, has been the mastermind behind the entire network of thefts. You, and your team, have been sent in, undercover, to bring him down. As a flight risk, you will be required to work quickly to gather the necessary evidence, and get out, before Morgan returns from class and you are found out. Consequently, should you fail, the US Government will disavow all information regarding this assignment and you, and your team, will be issued burn notices. Recover Documents They say "a picture is worth a thousand words," but no one ever says what those words are. Pain, torture, agony….screaming; only 996 to go. After being personally invited to model at a private casting call, hosted by charismatic photographer, Adrian Scuro, you and a handful of other hopefuls find yourselves in a posh studio, surrounded by white walls and displays of hauntingly beautiful photos. Maybe a glass of water will help calm your anxiety. He really should look at filtered water…this stuff tastes weird. You begin to have second thoughts as your nerves get the better of you…you try the door, but it is locked firmly in place. You remember hearing about mysterious disappearances and murders, in the area, over the past few months…but, this can't be…it's not…oh my god…it's him. You know you don't have much time to get out, before he gets back, but how?! The clock is ticking and you are starting to feel dizzy…really dizzy. The water. No, no, no, no, no! This is not happening! A voice in your head screams, "Get out, NOW!" You don't have much time…none of you do. Picture Time The TR-18 virus was created by your team of top military scientists...not as a weapon, but rather a research tool. Its conception would have allowed decades worth of raw data to be observed and recorded, resulting in the ability to combat and neutralize within a matter of days countless unknown biological, chemical, or radiation-based weapons. But something went wrong...so very wrong. An underground group of animal rights activists managed to infiltrate the facility and liberate all of the test subjects...and the virus they're carrying. They have no idea what the have just done. Knowing that the facility has been compromised, automated security measures have been enacted to contain any potential outbreak. It is too late for that. If Operation: Clean Sweep does its job, it will eradicate any possibility of saving the human population, as it will destroy all 60 samples of genetic material that is resistant to the virus, as well as the 3 necessary binding solutions. Without all of these components, there is no hope in synthesizing an anti-virus in time to save humanity from its impending fate. Find the Cure You're halfway done. You lifted the diamonds, successfully managed to hide them inside of the small wooden sculpture, and got out of France without any issues. Good thing U.S. Customs doesn't check traveling pieces of art near as carefully as other goods entering the country. All you have left to do is break into the gallery and get them out of the sculpture. Why did things have to turn complicated? The heist was supposed to begin tomorrow night...fortunately, Donovan, your team leader, read between the lines. The brains behind this whole thing were never going to let us walk free with their goods….they need a scapegoat and your team fit the bill. Solution: Take it back before they have a chance to set you up. Donovan left the briefcase with the tools in the adjacent retail space, next to the gallery. You don't have time for some elaborate plan, so you're going to have to do a lot, with a little. Get the goods and get out….or maybe spend the rest of your lives in prison. Crack the Code

Publishers Weekly - Publisher's WeeklyIs Burrillville High School in northwest Rhode Island a microcosm of small-town kids watching the senior class edging warily toward adulthood? In 1992, Miller, a staff writer at the Providence Journal-Bulletin, began shadowing two lively teens-Dave Bettencourt, at the start of his last year in high school, and Beth, his girlfriend and a provocative sophomore. ``Energy, optimism and refreshing flakiness'' are the observable traits this writer-in-residence enjoys when he joins Dave in a series of adventures, some comical, some not so funny. They involve a radical underground school paper, Dave's stated goal to be named class clown, his serious dating and all the preliminaries to the serious matter of looming adulthood. Miller describes the universal experiences of adolescents growing up in a world quite different from that of their parents' youth. Photos not seen by PW. (June)

Dimitris E. Ioannou received his BS in Physics (1974), from Thessaloniki University, Greece and his MS (1975) and PhD (1978) in Solid-State Electronics, from Manchester University, UK. Prior to his current position of professor of electrical and computer engineering at George Mason University (Fairfax, VA), he has held positions at Manchester and Middlesex Universities (UK), Democritus University of Thrace (Greece), University of Maryland (USA), and spent his 2001 Spring Semester on sabbatical leave as a visiting professor at the Grenoble Polytechnic (ENSERG), France.
Prof. Ioannou's main research contributions on rough chronological order include: development of SEM-EBIC techniques for characterizing electrically active defects and measuring the diffusion length in semiconductor materials; techniques for studying deep traps, carrier lifetime and interface states in Silicon on Insulator (SOI); physics and hot carrier reliability of SOI devices, including the discovery of the opposite-channel based carrier-injection and invented a SOI flash memory cell that exploits this phenomenon; development of Schottky and Ohmic contact technology for SiC. His current research interests are on the performance and reliability issues of SOI and bulk CMOS devices and circuits (radiation hardness, hot carriers, negative bias temperature instability, electrostatic discharge protection), and on non-classical (nano-scale) CMOS and the emerging field of nanoelectronics, including nanowire based non-volatile memory. He has authored or coauthored over two hundred and fifty research papers and conference presentations, and advised more than thirty research students.
Prof. Ioannou has been involved with the IEEE Intern. SOI Conference for over fifteen years, including as technical program chairman (SOI'2001) and general chairman (SOI'2002). He is the 2008 Outstanding Research Faculty Award Recipient of the George Mason University Volgenau School of Information Technology and Engineering.

Awesome app but outdated
Very useful app like as reading my PC stats, track pad but it kinda lags, it works on iOS 9 luckily, inapp purchases doesn't work, it's over a year old since it's updated
Works Well, Great Monitor
I have used this mostly to monitor my media server. The app works well with the PC software. Customizing was easy and does what I want it to. Would be 5 star if it would work outside of the wifi network.
Please update this, I've given this app 3 stars because it's not optimized for iPhone 6 and it lags terrible. I recently got an roccat mouse and the app, however I'm impressed with how the app monitors the computer. I just wish it was optimized for my phone.

BEIJING China's new generation of migrant workers is more ambitious, quicker to quit jobs and less likely to return to farming than their parents, according to an official survey released on Monday.
People born after 1980 account for about 60 percent of China's 240 million migrant workers, and their changing habits and aspirations will help determine the development of the country's manufacturing sector and broader economy.
Young Chinese migrant workers earn an average 1,747.87 Chinese yuan ($277) a month, about half the average urban salary, but with high expectations for personal development, according to the survey by the All China Federation of Trade Unions.
They are likely to change jobs three times as frequently as their parents, the survey found.
They also have far less experience in farming than their parents, according to the survey, an indication that they will choose to remain in urban areas even if they cannot obtain the residency permits required to obtain the full range of social benefits.
As a way of accommodating this movement, the trade union recommended that the government allow at least 4 million young migrant workers to settle permanently in cities every year.
Of the 2,711 respondents, 74 percent worked in manufacturing, 84 percent were employed in the private sector and 76 percent were based in coastal areas.
