Ron Gordon
President and CEO ZGS Communications
Ron Gordon, a native of Lima, Peru, is the owner, CEO and President of ZGS Communications and ZGS Broadcasting. Mr. Gordon arrived in the U.S. almost 30 years ago as a teenager and his entrepreneurial spirit quickly emerged. He began a paper listing the local soccer scores because he missed his favorite sport and realized that many other immigrants like him longed to follow soccer as well.
Mr. Gordon continued with communications work to fill a gap in the Latino community. He considered what he missed from back home in Peru and thought of the Hispanic artists and television shows that he watched as a boy. Mr. Gordon ventured to work in the growing Hispanic news and entertainment industry and to create some of the first U.S. produced television shows for the Latino community.
In 1989, Mr. Gordon formed ZGS Broadcasting, Inc. which consists of three Spanish television stations located in Washington, D.C., Tampa and Orlando, Florida, as well as two Spanish radio stations in Tampa, Florida. The television and radio stations reach more than one million Hispanic people. In 1997, ZGS Communications, Inc. and ZGS Broadcasting, Inc. had combined revenues of approximately $8 million.
As a leading producer of programming with Hispanic content, ZGS Communications was nominated for four Emmys and won two. ZGS is currently one of the leading Hispanic communications firms that assists companies in developing advertising, marketing, and public relations strategies aimed at the Latino community.

META lab coats are known for their impeccable construction and functionality. This unisex lab coat is available in blue, grey, navy or white. Four-button coat with one-piece back with two-piece swing belt. Features hand-access slits, three outside pockets, one inside pocket. Made of soil-release cotton/polyester poplin.
The Lab coat is modern and I get a lot of compliments. The quality of the lab coat is great and does not get to stuffy.
Awesome Lab Coat! Great design and fit. Looks very professional and get many compliments
The blue lab coats are good quality and the scientists are happy with them.
Good price, good quality and shipped on time.
Looks good. Fabric lightweight.
It's a nice fit to the jacket but the fabric is pretty thin and doesn't look very high quality. I bought this so our doctor could have an embroidered lab jacket, but I don't think the embroidery will look very good on this fabric. I think I will return.
The quality and monogramming of your unisex lab coats is good; however, the arm length and height of the waist pockets are designed for a female's frame.
The lab coats are nice. I really like the lightweight fabric. They seemed to come out of the wash nicely. Just to avoid possible shrinkage, I did not place them in the dryer.
I've been buying the same style coat for over 20 years. This one is not the same quality as in the past: > Material had a few defects in the fabric > Grey color is darker shade than before > Different material - lighter weight, feels more synthetic > Coats now sold as S, M, L, XL; previously they were sold by sizes 38, 40, 42 etc.
Allheart delivered on time and was what I wanted.
Nice material, good deep cornflower blue color, slits so you can put your hand into your pants pockets, and the back-belt can be pinned to add a little shape to the straight coat. Just perfect for my experiments. And would also be great for your mad scientist costume at Halloween.
My husband works in a precision grinding shop for aerospace and oil hangs like a mist in that shop, especially around the machines. This coat is long enough to cover his clothing and being permanent press, it always looks good. The price is about right compared to other sources. We found a lot of sources, but not many that carried colors. Wish you had black, but the dark blue works. The fit is just right, too.
I purchased it for my daughter for Christmas.
Very nice lab coats perfect fit !!!

10 best cities to retire in
It's not just the weather, but many of the best cities in which to retire are in the sunbelt.
The new tax law is forcing retirees to take a closer look at their tax strategies in retirement and, for some, it means big changes in how they save, invest and draw down their resources.
IRA and Roth perks get better
The American Taxpayer Relief Act—better known as the last-minute "fiscal-cliff deal" in January—brought many new tax rules. A couple of them could prove valuable for investors who own an IRA or Roth IRA.
What you know about taxes is wrong

|Half Baths
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
This is a three-bedroom, three-and-a-half bath home, located two blocks from the ocean, in a quiet residential are in the Puna District of the Hawaii Island. The house is new, having been built in 2008. It is three stories, with a two-car enclosed garage located on the first level. Entrance to the home is on the second level, where the three bedrooms are located.
The master bedroom is furnished with a king-sized bed, and has an en suite master bath, complete with Jacuzzi tub, glass-enclosed shower, double sinks, and a walk-in closet. It opens to a peaceful wrap-around lanai with view of the ocean. The guest bedroom is furnished with a double bed and also opens to the far side of the wrap-around lanai. The third bedroom is furnished with a double bed and looks out into the backyard. Each guest bedroom has its own private full bath and closet. Each bedroom has its own flat-panel TV.
The third level opens to a great room which encompasses the dining room, living room, reading area, and kitchen with island, with a half-bath off the dining room. There are plenty of windows, and two entries onto the upper wrap-around lanai. The lanai has a view of the ocean. The living room has a flat panel TV, complete with DVD player and surround-sound system. The entire house is laid with Brazilian Koa hardwood floors. The house is fully furnished, right down to the BBQ grill, snorkel equipment, beach towels and two beach chairs.
I have been visiting the various Islands since my early twenties and have always dreamed of retiring in Hawaii. I recently made the decision to make my retirement dream a reality and purchased a home on Hawaii Island, so that I can come out several times a year until I can move here permanently.
I picked the area of Pahoa, in the Puna District as it is centrally located with hiking at Volcano National Park, swim in geo thermal tide pools, explore Hilo the 'Big Little City' with Farmers market, small shops with lots of unique treasures, or walk the Liliuokalani Gardens all within 30 minutes from the house. Just 10 minutes away is the funky town of Pahoa (you will think you warped back to the 60s) along with a Market, a Organic Fruit Stand, to buy items you forgot to buy in Hilo.
Just a few things I love about this house, it is located in a quiet residential neighborhood of Hawaiian Shores - 2 blocks from the ocean. Enjoy the openness of rooms with all the windows, relax and sit out on the Lanai's (the house has 2 lanai's upstairs and one downstairs off 2 of the bedrooms) to enjoy watching a rainbow after a rain shower, eat your lunch or dinner or just read a book. The feeling of privacy with all the individual bedrooms each having their own bathroom and TV. Take your beach chairs to the cliffs and watch the waves crash against the Pali (Cliffs). Sometimes you even dolphins or whales. Listen to the coqui frogs at night to lull you to sleep
I decided to rent this property because of the open living/dining/kitchen area and proximity to the ocean. The space was just what I hoped for -- open and inviting and comfortable. I loved sitting on the lanai and seeing the ocean in the distance. It is also a very short walk to a ocean side park (you may want to bring a chair to sit in when you get there). Bedrooms are spacious and comfortable, and each has the own full bath -- which is a lovely bonus!
This home is located a 35-minute drive south from the town of Hilo, on the east side of the island. This area is not known for its beaches; instead, it is known for its rugged coastline, with the waves crashing onto the lava cliffs. This is also the lush side of the island, and there are several waterfalls to visit, including Akaka Falls and Rainbow Falls. The house is located approximately 10 minutes from the funky town of Pahoa, where tie-die attire is the norm. There is an organic fruit stand and a well-stocked grocery store located there, along with some good restaurants.
This side of the island is not touristy, but more suited for those who are looking for a quiet retreat or the more adventurous. There are no close beaches; to access those, you must travel up over the volcano and down into the Kailua-Kona area, an approximate two- to three-hour drive. It is, however, located fairly close (half-hour drive) to the Mauna Kea volcano, where there is hiking and sightseeing, and the Isaac Hale State Beach (15-minute drive), where you can catch a boat ride to view the lava entering into the sea. There are several botanical gardens close by and a macadamia farm to tour. University of Hawaii at Hilo is also close. The big cruise ships stop in Hilo Bay, and there are many small and unique shops, as well as good dining, a Farmers Market on Sunday and Wednesday and the Tsunami museum.

What is the windows equivalent of
rm -r [directory-name]?
What is the windows equivalent of
It seems it's been updated... this is what you want:
This removes the directory
This does the same, without prompts :
Regarding the sudo part of your question, if you need more priviliges, you can first open a new shell as another user account using the
If you want to delete a long and complicated folder structure from the command prompt that RmDir won't touch and not even explorer can display, I've found robocopy can be very efficient at removing the structure. In the example below we have a massive structure inside the folder administrator, the structure is so deep that nothing can remove it. We create a new empty folder called (strangely enough!) "new folder". We then use the robocopy command, telling it the source folder is "new folder" and the destination folder is "D:\Administrator" with the /MIR parameter which means it will purge anything not in the source folder.
In this case the folder paths were so long they would not even fit in the command prompt window Screen Buffer, but Robocopy will traverse the structure and remove any "extra" files and folders (ie anything not in the new empty folder, which is everything).
You can do the following in PowerShell, if you're on Windows Vista+ :
If you have a really really long path, (like I did because of java program error), even robocopy cant do it. It descended for about 30sec into my path and then hung.
My solution: if you can move the whole problem path from one folder to another then you can cut away recursivly and repeatedly some directory stairs from the top.
This Batch plays pingpong between the two directories leer and leer2 and cuts away 8 'libraries' each time. If your path contains files, you have to add further commands to erase them.
From CMD Just run RD /s C:\path\to\delete Hit Y to the prompt
/s ensures all the sub directories are deleted as well.
Reference Run help RD from the command line
For me, what works is
You can add
You can use ROBOCOPY. It is very simple and can also be used to delete empty folders inside large hierarchy.

Possible ID Theft!!!
I don't know where else to post this but if it's true, I'm sure I'll have to fight to get it taken care of and some rebuilding to do so I guess this would be the right board. I just checked my Scorewatch and a CA has appeared with the OC listed as USBank. I haven't had a USBank account, or even lived in a state where we have them, for 5 years. When I closed the account, I did it because I was switching banks, didn't owe money to them or anything. So why would this CA magically appear??? I racked my brain and this is all I can come up with...
Well, as I was thinking back to when I closed the account, I recalled I was living with a roommate at the time. This roommate let someone stay with us for a few weeks who was definitely not of respectable character, which led to my moving out. My rent money (I worked as a bartender so kept my rent in my drawer in my room in cash) came up missing. So now this leads me to wonder if this person possibly took a blank checkbook from the closed account as well! How else could I owe them money???
I hope I'm jumping to conclusions and it's something that's not even mine and shouldn't be listed. I'm sure after 5 or 6 years the bank wouldn't have a signature card on file anymore so I'm worried there won't be anyway to prove I didn't write bad checks, if that's what it is.
But wouldn't a bank have sued me for bad checks when it happened if that was what it was, not send it to a collection agency 5 years later?
I tried to get a credit report online from equifax (it's not listed on experian, which I did get), but apparently there's a fraud alert, or some other reason I can't request it online, on my account so I'm going to have to do it by mail and worry even longer. Ugh!
Goal: mid-700's

Is there a file manager for Windows that has a running history of the last X folders you visited?
I am not using Windows 7 but I remember you can access the recently visited folder by right-clicking the icon on the superbar.
Edit: You may want to look at Unreal Commander. Alt+Down shows the history of directory visited even after you close the file manager.
Directory Opus and XYplorer have recent folder lists. In XYplorer it's in Go > Recent Locations... and I know it's in Directory Opus but don't have it installed at the moment so I can't tell you where exactly.

Tony Russell hopes to become a mainstay on Penn State's distance medley relay team in due time, and on Friday, he bolstered his case to do just that.
Running in his third Penn Relays, the Nittany Lions recruit recorded a time of 4 minutes, 9.99 seconds for the 1,600-meter anchor leg of the Championship of America DMR race, helping West Chester Henderson take the title in 10:03.77.
Starting out behind Cardinal O'Hara's Jim Belfatto upon taking the handoff from teammate Kevin Moy, Russell quickly picked off Belfatto and never looked back.
"Starting out right behind the lead guy, I tried to run a really fast 800 to try to crush him a little bit," Russell said. "I was confident in my strength to hold him off, so I eased up a little on the third lap. I tried dropping a really fast last lap after that, and I did that."

Starting the festival off with a good breakfast
Published: Thursday, September 2, 2010 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, September 1, 2010 at 11:29 a.m.
The kick-off breakfast for the Apple Festival is with the Kiwanis Club of Hendersonville on Friday at First Baptist Church. The breakfast has been held since 1991, according to Chat Jones, the club's historian.

The club sponsors a shoe program for county youth.
Since 1955, the club has purchased shoes for students who need them. The club also sponsors several college scholarships for local students.
The breakfast will feature pancakes, grits and cooked apple slices with cinnamon and brown sugar — a "Southern breakfast," Jones said. Drinks such as coffee, tea and apple juice also will be available.
Tickets are $6. Key Club members and Keywanettes will help serve the breakfast.
"We sponsor clubs in each of the high schools and the Early College," Jones said. For more information, call 828-697-4867.
Lions Club
On Saturday, the Lions Club Big Apple Country Breakfast will be held at First Baptist Church. The money raised from the breakfast will be used to help those needing eye treatment, including eye exams, eyeglasses and white canes, Hendersonville Lions Club President Fred Huscher said.
"Our main focus is improving the quality of life for people with vision problems," he said.
The breakfast has been a festival staple for more than 20 years. Last year, about 850 people were served. Huscher said the club hopes to raise $2,000 to $3,000.
"The money we raise also goes to funding other community activities," Huscher said. The club supports Scouting, 4-H programs, youth baseball, Henderson County Young Leaders program, food bank activities and Henderson County Education Foundation.
Huscher added that support of such fundraisers is "our lifeblood," with the breakfast being one of the big fundraisers for the club.
The menu includes bacon, sausage, eggs, grits, biscuits, gravy, cooked apples and beverages. Tickets cost $6 per person. For more information, visit www.hendersonvillelions.org.

Patient Rights & Responsibilities
Cheshire Medical Center/Dartmouth-Hitchcock Keene (CMC/D-HK) strives to make your healthcare visit as effective as possible. Health care involves a partnership between patients, families and healthcare providers. When you are well informed, participate in treatment decisions, and communicate openly with your provider and other healthcare staff members, you help make your care more effective. We encourage respect for the personal preferences and values of each individual. This guide to your rights as a patient is intended to inform you of your rights to receive quality health care and what steps you can take if you have a concern.
Patient Rights
- As patient of Cheshire Medical Center/Dartmouth-Hitchcock Keene, it is your right to have care provided in a safe manner by competent and trained staff. You can expect that we will do our best to respond to any requests you may have. We will care for you regardless of your sex, gender, race, color, national origin, creed, age, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, religious or cultural beliefs, physical or mental disability or economic status. If we cannot provide the medical services you need, we will make arrangements for transfer to an appropriate facility, recognizing your rights to choose from available resources.
- You have the right to compassionate and respectful care at all times and under all circumstances, with recognition of your personal dignity. Your care will include consideration and respect for you and your family's social, spiritual, personal values, beliefs and preferences as they affect the manner in which care is provided.
- You have the right to have any grievances and concerns heard and to have any care conflicts resolved in a timely manner. At CMC/D-HK you can call patient representative at 603-354-6577, if your concern cannot be handled with the staff taking care of you, or if you prefer not to bring it to their attention. We encourage you to voice your concerns directly with the staff taking care of you if you can. There will be no retaliation in response to any concern or complaint you may raise.
- If you have a care issue that is unresolved and you are unable to agree with your provider's recommendations for your care, the provider may make arrangements to transfer your care to another provider associated with CMC/D-HK or, if you prefer, transfer you to another facility as appropriate. If your attending provider cannot agree with decisions you, your family or legal guardian wish to make regarding medical care, the provider may withdraw from the case providing he/she has arranged for your continued care. In any event, the provider will continue providing caring for you until satisfactory arrangements are made. If you have a care issue that is unresolved and you are not satisfied with the final determination, some resources are:
• NH Board of Medicine or call 603-271-1203.
• NH Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Ombudsman or call 603-271-6941

- You have the right to provide or to formulate advance directives and to appoint a representative to make health care decisions on your behalf to the extent permitted by law. Your wishes will be reviewed with you and information will be provided regarding the extent to which the organization is able, unable or unwilling to honor your wishes.
- You have the right to be advised if your provider or the organization proposes to engage in or conduct research or educational projects affecting your care and treatment. You have the right to refuse to participate in any such projects.
- You have the right to every consideration of privacy concerning your medical care and to expect confidentiality of your medical information except to the extent that disclosure may be required by your insurer or by law. This may include requirements for disclosure of information regarding cases of HIV, tuberculosis, meningitis, and other diseases that are reported to organizations such as health departments.

If you need financial assistance, please inquire about possible financial aid to help pay your bill or to help pay for your medications. We have financial counselors available to assist you.
- You have the right to the presence of a support person or care giver at any time during your care, except where safety or infection control concerns may prohibit this access. This includes a domestic partner (including a same-sex domestic partner), another family member or a friend. The patient has the right to withdraw the designation of the support person at any time. You have a right to designate a care giver upon entry to the hospital.
- You or your representative have the right to be provided "An Important Message from Medicare" if you are a medicare beneficiary and are an inpatient status within two (2) days of Admission. This outlines the discharge appeal rights. The notice is provided again to the patient (or his/her representative) not more than two calendar days before the patient's discharge.

Disease is often implicated as a factor in population declines of wildlife and plants. Understanding the characteristics that may predispose a species to infection by a particular pathogen can help direct conservation efforts. Recent declines in amphibian populations world-wide are a major conservation issue and may be caused in part by a fungal pathogen, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). We used Random Forest, a machine learning approach, to identify species-level characteristics that may be related to susceptibility to Bd. Our results suggest that body size at maturity, aspects of egg laying behavior, taxonomic order and family, and reliance on water are good predictors of documented infection for species in the continental United States. These results suggest that, whereas local-scale environmental variables are important to the spread of Bd, species-level characteristics may also influence susceptibility to Bd. The relationships identified in this study suggest future experimental tests, and may target species for conservation efforts.

1. Melt ½ stick butter in a medium skillet over low to medium heat.
2. Stir in ¾ cup light brown sugar and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Heat until the mixture is liquefied and smooth.
3. Add 4 cups sliced bananas, and stir until all banana slices are thoroughly coated. Pour ¼ cup rum over the top of the bananas.
4. Use a butane lighter or fireplace match to ignite the rum. Let the banana mixture flame until the flames subside. This will burn off all of the alcohol from the rum, leaving the rum-flavored brown sugar-cinnamon sauce.
5. While banana mixture is warm, place 3 or 4 large scoops of vanilla ice cream on a nice dessert plate.
6. Spoon the warm banana mixture to the side of the ice cream scoops, or spoon it over the top. Serve immediately, while the ice cream is cold and the bananas are warm.
This is a dramatic and showy dessert, but, best of all—the taste is magnificent! I hope you love this recipe! --Betty

"Miho Seacoast Finally a part of World Heritage!" Miho by taigaa001
Miho Travel Guide: 44 reviews and 128 photos
Miho Pine Grove finally became a part of newly arroved UNESCO World Heritage, Mount Fuji.... People in Shizuoka are really rejoiced. To retain the status Shizuoka Prefecture is trying hard to clean the beach, eliminate artificial objects being the eyesores for beautiful landscape. People in Miho has been trying hard to restore the beauty of Japan.
I went to Miho on July 3, 2010 in the midst of rainy season. The weather forecast says the it will be cloudy with occasional shower. I went there when there is shower. Good news is I enjoyed the walk through kamino-michi , pine arcade trail between miho pine grove to Miho Shrine. This religious pathway can be comparable to Dankazura pathway in Kamakura. And Vitex rotundifolia one of the common seashore plants in Pacific coast began to bloom. Bad news just when I went to the shore I encountered a thunder shower. And the Hagoromo pine is withering. It is not tachinically dead because there is younger shoots but it could hardly be the substitute for the older growth. I am sure the tourists are really disappointed. And in early July viewing Mt. Fuji is next to impossible. Despite the bad weather I enjoyed the short walk to the coast because of seashore plants.
I went to Miho coast again to see the sea false bindweed blooming around May to June. Miho coast is one of the few places where you can take a photo of false bindweed and Mt. Fuji in a single frame. When I went on May 14 the coast was gusty and the most of the morning glories are half open to withstand the strong wind. I walked from Miho Pine Grove promenade to Miho lighthouse close to the 500-meter-long airport. The bike road to Miho Lighthouse is also popular place for joggers.

100 Greatest Men: #64. Jerry Reed
100 Greatest Men: The Complete List
A first class singer, songwriter, and musician, Jerry Reed's talents ran far deeper than his tongue-in-cheek persona might have indicated.
100 Greatest Men: The Complete List
A first class singer, songwriter, and musician, Jerry Reed's talents ran far deeper than his tongue-in-cheek persona might have indicated.
Cover songs can be a hot topic at just about any given time. We recently got to hear a somewhat underwhelming OneRepublic cover by Faith Hill, which Kevin recently reviewed. Other recent attempts include Sara Evans' pop-country reworking of Rod Stewart's "My Heart Can't Tell You No," as well as last year's polarizing Beyoncé cover by Reba McEntire.
Since cover songs are so much fun to talk about, I thought I'd weigh in on a few well-known cover songs from the past few years – the good ones, as well as a few that we would rather forget. My criteria is simple: A good cover song should bring something new to the table, and the song should be treated in a way that is well-suited to the artist as well as the genre. This list focuses specifically on country covers of non-country songs.
As with her take on "Imagine" decades later, Parton's cover of the now-classic Elvis Presley single "In the Ghetto" is fatally flawed.
As I'm sure the rest of you do, I make playlists all the time. Many of them are lists of individual artists, but some of them have a concept.
My latest playlist is of covers. First, I have the original version (or the one that's famous for being the original) followed by my favorite cover of it. My only rule is that I have to like both versions. So, songs where I like the cover but not the original won't make the list.

You can tell it's the mid-sixties because they're dabbling a bit with production gimmicks. I think it's their coolest sounding record, one of their best compositions, and Frankie Valli at the peak of his vocal prowess.
As with the similar CMA category of Single of the Year, looking over the history of this category is the quickest way to get a snapshot of country music in a given year. There is a quite a bt of consensus among the two organizations here, and it is very rare for the winner at one show to not at least be nominated at the other. The winners list here would make a great 2-disc set of country classics, at least for those who don't mind a little pop in their country. The ACM definitely has more of a taste for crossover than its CMA counterpart, and the organizations have only agreed on 17 singles in the past four decades and change.
As always, we start with a look at this year's nominees and work our way back to 1968.
There's usually a "Huh?" nominee among the ACM list in recent years. This year, it's David Nail. Good for him! Currington hasn't won yet for this hit, even though he got himself a Grammy nomination for it. With Lady Antebellum reaching the upper ranks of the country and pop charts with "Need You Now", my guess is that they're the presumptive favorites. Then again, Miranda Lambert is a nominee for the third straight year, and she's up for her biggest radio hit.
Adkins has been a fairly regular fixture on country radio since 1996, but this was his first major industry award. He also won the ACM for Top New Male Vocalist in 1997.
The ACM Awards has traditionally been overshadowed by the CMA Awards, despite its longer existence. This is for several reasons. First, the ACM originally existed to emphasize the West Coast country music scene, whereas the CMA Awards represented Nashville from the start. The ACM has also been more commercially-oriented from the beginning, as the history of this category proves. Eighteen of the last twenty winners in this ACM category are multi-platinum sellers, and the organization allowed greatest hits albums to compete for more than a decade.
Still, the ACM category has bragging rights of its own. Critically-acclaimed albums like Storms of Life, Trio, Killin' Time and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend won at the ACMs but were overlooked by the CMAs. Additionally, women have also been far more successful at this ceremony. Only five women have ever won the CMA Album trophy, and one of them was Sissy Spacek! At the ACMs, women have dominated the category for the past three years, and the category has honored everyone from Loretta Lynn and Donna Fargo to K.T. Oslin and Shania Twain.
A special note about ACM flashbacks. Like the Grammys, the ACMs issue their award for a given year the following year, so the awards for 2009, for example, are given out in 2010. For the purposes of the flashbacks, Country Universe notes the year the award is presented. While the ACM first presented awards in 1966, the Album category wasn't introduced until 1968.
As with other flashbacks, we begin with a look at this year's nominees:
Three previous winners – Miranda Lambert, Brad Paisley, and Carrie Underwood – compete against the debut albums of two hot bands. Lady Antebellum and Zac Brown Band each picked up a Grammy this year and are well represented on the rest of the ACM ballot. This is a very competitive race. Even the sales-friendly nature of the ACMs doesn't help much here, as four of these albums are platinum and Lambert's just went gold.
Taylor Swift became the third consecutive female artist to win in this category, a feat that would've seemed unthinkable earlier in the middle part of the decade, when country radio all but exiled women from radio.
The Three Bells
The Browns
Written by Dick Manning, Bert Reisfeld and Jean Villard
The structure of "The Three Bells" should be familiar to any listener of contemporary country music. A genre that prides itself on its simplicity is ambitious enough to tell an entire life story in under four minutes. It's an approach that has created several classic singles like "Where've You Been" , "Time Marches On" and "How Can I Help You Say Goodbye."
One of the most significant historical examples of this structure comes from The Browns, who had a massive crossover hit with their 1959 single "The Three Bells." It's a simple tale. The church bells ring three times throughout the course of Jimmy Brown's life: on the day of his baptism, the day of his wedding, and the day of his funeral. The preacher has words of wisdom for each occasion, ones that would be familiar to any Christian churchgoer, Catholic or otherwise.
That the character shares the same name as lead singer Jim Ed Brown and takes place in a little country town might lead you to believe that this was a song of Nashville origin, but it actually began its life and its worldwide success in France as the story of Jean-François Nicot. Originally written in French, "Les Trois Cloches" was an international hit for Édith Piaf, the songstress that was recently immortalized in the film La Vie En Rose. The Browns, composed of siblings Jim Ed, Maxine, and Bonnie, had been performing the song since seeing it Les Campagnons de la Chanson performing an English-language version on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1952.

Management Report:
Opportunities for Improvements in FDIC's Internal Controls and Accounting Procedures
GAO-09-943R: Published: Sep 15, 2009. Publicly Released: Sep 15, 2009.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-3133
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
In May 2009, we issued our opinions on the calendar year 2008 financial statements of the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) and the FSLIC Resolution Fund (FRF). We also issued our opinion on the effectiveness of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's (FDIC) internal control over financial reporting (including safeguarding assets) as of December 31, 2008, and our evaluation of FDIC's compliance with provisions of selected laws and regulations for the two funds for the year ended December 31, 2008. The purpose of this report is to present issues identified during our audit of the 2008 financial statements regarding certain internal controls and accounting procedures and to recommend actions to address these issues.
During our audits of the 2008 financial statements, we identified four internal control issues that affected FDIC's accounting for the funds it administers. Although we do not consider them to be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies,3 and thus do not consider them to be material in relation to DIF's and FRF's financial statements, we believe that they warrant management's attention and action. These issues concern the following: (1) Written policies and procedures were not updated to document FDIC's new methodology used to determine the estimated cash recovery of receivership assets. (2) Controls did not ensure that correct amounts were paid for services provided by contractors and that operating expenses were appropriately allocated among the funds FDIC administers. (3) Oversight of contracted lockbox operations did not provide adequate assurance that controls were effectively designed to minimize the risk of loss, theft, and misreporting of receivership receipts. (4) Controls over the processing of receivership receipt transactions did not result in transactions being timely applied to the appropriate receivership accounts.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: FDIC's lockbox service provider does not engage a SAS 70 audit. However, to address this recommendation FDIC conducted an internal control site visit of the lockbox facility and implemented check deposit tests to verify that the lockbox accurately deposited checks into FDIC's account.
Recommendation: The Chief Financial Officer should revise procedures to obtain assurance--through such means as SAS 70 reports, internal audit reports, and other monitoring processes--that internal controls over receivership receipts are in place and functioning properly at the Dallas lockbox facility.
Agency Affected: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: In response to our recommendation, FDIC documented and implemented procedures for preparing its fund distribution schedule to ensure that the correct amounts were entered.
Recommendation: The Chief Financial Officer should document and implement the procedures to be followed for entering data into the fund distribution schedule.
Agency Affected: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: The FDIC Division of Finance (DOF), with input from Division of Resolutions & Receiverships (DRR), updated their guidance that related to the Asset Loss Reserve (Loan Loss Reserve or LLR). These policies and procedures were disseminated to FDIC staff on October 9, 2009. Specifically, the FDIC provided the following guidance: (1) the FDIC Asset Loss Review Project, which documents the official approval of recovery rates used for Fiscal Year 2009; (2) the FDIC Recovery Rate used for fiscal year 2009, which documents a description of the different recovery rate methodologies used during fiscal year 2009; (3) the FDIC Loan Loss Reserve Process memorandum, which describes the process of using the Loan Loss Reserve Templates to calculate an Allowance for Loss for each of the receiverships; (4) the FDIC Desktop Procedures for completing the Loan Loss Reserve Template, which provides detailed instructions on how to complete the LLR templates.
Recommendation: The Chief Financial Officer should (1) document procedural guidance for estimating failed financial institution receivership asset recoveries to derive the allowance for losses on the DIF's receivables from resolutions, (2) disseminate the guidance to appropriate staff, and (3) effectively implement the guidance.
Agency Affected: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: To address this recommendation, FDIC issued and implemented a policy entitled "Accounting Policy for the Timely Application of Unapplied Funds." This policy sets a time frame for applying receivership receipts to the appropriate account.
Recommendation: The Chief Financial Officer should document and implement a policy regarding a time frame, such as the current target of 90 days, by which receivership receipts are to be applied to the appropriate receivership accounts.
Agency Affected: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation

Development of vulnerable high-angle grain boundaries (and cracks) from low-angle boundaries during thermal cycling by means of continuous recrystallization was examined in fine-pitch ball grid array (BGA) packages with Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu (wt.%) (SAC305) lead-free solder joints. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and differential-aperture x-ray microscopy (DAXM or 3D-XRD) were used for surface and subsurface characterization. A large number of subgrain boundaries were observed in the parent orientation using both techniques. However, unlike studies of anisotropic deformation in noncubic metals at much lower homologous temperatures, no streaked diffraction peaks were observed in DAXM Laue patterns within each 1 μm3 voxel after thermal cycling, suggesting that geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs) are effectively absorbed by the preexisting subgrain boundaries. Storage at room temperature (0.6T m) prior to DAXM measurement may also facilitate recovery processes to reduce local GND contents. Heterogeneous residual elastic strains were found near the interface between a precipitated Cu6Sn5 particle and the Sn grain, as well as near particular subgrain boundaries in the parent orientation. Grain boundary migration associated with recrystallization resulted in regions without internal strains, subgrain boundaries, or orientation gradients. Development of new grain orientations by continuous recrystallization and subsequent primary recrystallization and grain growth occurred in the regions where the cracks developed. Orientation gradients and subgrain structure were observed within newly formed recrystallized grains that could be correlated with slip systems having high Schmid factors.

The synthesis of titanium carbide (TiC) by the carbothermal reduction of carbon coated titanium dioxide (TiO2), a novel synthesis process, and titanium dioxide (TiO2) mixed with carbon black was investigated. A high surface area (64 m2g-1) TiO2 powder consisting of anatase and rutile phases was used for starting powders. The carbon coated method is a two-step process that utilizes a precursor derived from decomposing propylene (C3H6) and depositing carbon on the TiO2 particles. TiO2 powders were also mechanically mixed with carbon black for comparison. Both starting precursors and mixtures were reacted in a tube furnace for 2 and 4 h at temperatures of 1100°C to 1550°C under 1 l min-1 flowing argon. The TiC powders were characterized using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area analyser, chemical analysis (oxygen and carbon) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The carbon coating process provides high contact area between the reactants which results in a TiC product with lower oxygen content (0.6 wt%), finer particle size (0.1 μm), and uniform shape when synthesized at 1550°C for 4 h.

First SCII: Heart of the Swarm teaser hunts for Kerrigan
Boom! Right out of left-field, the first teaser trailer for the second part of the StarCraft II story arc, Zerg-based Heart of the Swarm, has been posted online.
The video is a 45 second tease which follows up on the end of the Terran-centered Wings of Liberty. It shows off its purple-focused logo for the first time.
GameTrailers originally posted the video, but its been pulled. Someone pushed the button too early, by the looks of it. Luckily, it's on YouTube.
Watch it below before it gets pulled (thanks, rrw).
Blizzard said that it would be showing Heart of the Swarm to press for the very first time this month a couple of weeks back during an Activision-Blizzard financial call.
The third and final section of the SCII story arc is the Protoss-led Legacy of the Void.
No date yet confirmed yet, but a release in 2012 is likely.

The extension "mbstring" is non-default, and may not exist on every host. [http://www.php.net/manual/en/mbstring.installation.php] Therefore, the function fix_encoding() will throw an error on hosts which do not have the mbstring extension. Attached is a patch to use function_exists() to check for both mb_detect_encoding and mb_check_encoding before trying to use them. It is against the latest git HEAD.
Thanks for the patch. It's okay otherwise, but I would like authors to have an e-mail address that can actually reach them :-) Plus, I'm worried about the invalid mail address breaking various scripts.
I would have used your sourceforge.net alias email@example.com, but it seems undeliverable. Can you provide some e-mail address I can use? :-)
Or just tell me if it's okay to use your sourceforge.net e-mail alias, even if it is undeliverable.
I've updated my SF account so emails sent to me SF email alias should now work. Thanks!
Accepted and pushed out 2d8f5c49be7c07ede04fdde66622c22991c798ff. Thanks :-)

Those familiar with the travesty of justice that led to multiple bogus drug arrests in the small Texas town of Tulia only from newspaper accounts will be outraged anew at this eye-opening narrative that bears comparison to such courtroom and litigation classics as A Civil Action. This devastating indictment of the toll taken by the war on drugs, viewed through the prism of one small community, is a masterpiece of true crime writing. Award-winning reporter Blakeslee broke the story for the Texas Observer in 2000 and has produced a definitive account, deftly weaving the history of the growth and decline of Tulia with the stories of those caught up in the racist frame by narcotics officer Tom Coleman.

In Reply.—For most metabolic disorders, a diagnosis based on a single symptom would not be acceptable. Hyperphenylalaninemia is a symptom that in a newborn infant suggests either complete or partial PH deficiency (PKU), dihydropteridine reductase deficiency, or deficiency in biopterin synthesis. The last two defects were recognized only after liver biopsy specimens showed near-normal PH activity in patients who were thought to have PKU.
Phenylketonuria has been studied intensively for nearly 30 years. There are as many unanswered questions today as there were then. We have no clue as to why some untreated patients with classic PKU attained normal mental development, while the majority were severely mentally retarded.1 There is still no consensus as to which children with hyperphenylalaninemia need a phenylalanine-restricted diet to ensure normal intellectual development.2,3 There is no agreement as to whether the phenylalanine-restricted diet can be terminated without adverse effects.4 Many other

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economyAntoine Dodson of Huntsville, Alabama became an overnight Internet sensation when a local news station interviewed him after a man broke into his sister's apartment and tried to rape her. Dodson's thoughts on why the intruder should watch his back, delivered with flamboyant commentary, made the rounds on the Internet and quickly turned into a song. To date, the song has been downloaded 30,000 times, and the video viewed over 13 million times. Some have accused Dodson of falling into a trap of "modern minstrelsy" and making Black folks look bad. "Lord, Jeses, how can the reporter file this story with a straight face?" wrote bloggers at AverageBro.com. The TV station that initially aired the story got angry emails and phone calls from viewers who accused them of relying on old stereotypes of poor Black people. "Some have contacted our newsroom saying that interviews with people like Antoine reflect poorly on the community. To that I say censoring people like Antoine is far worse," responded reporter Elizabeth Gentle. This week, the "Today" show asked whether we're in fact laughing with Antoine, or at him. What do you think?

A returning line of DL Luis Martinez, OL Nate Yansky, and DL Tyson Scott has to make Fieszel his team will figure it out.
A strong JV team coming up should fill in the gaps on offense and defense. Fieszel will have these kids ready and another district crown could be in store for next season.
