We decided to stay here because we had business in Round Rock. The hotel was very nice as well as the staff. The front desk staff was top notch. We stayed in a king suite that had a hide a bed for the girls which was really small, even though they said it was a queen sofa. The room could stand some updating. We stayed 2 days, then ended up coming back because of 1 more day of business. This time we stayed in the king suite with the separate bedroom (yeah). Very nice. The ac in the room wasn't working right and the bed was hard. Room 315 by the way. The breakfast was really good with a lot of choices. If you need extra pillows good luck because they were always short on them.

Hi list
i keep getting logs from my IOS router 12.4 T about denying udp packet
ip a.a.a.a (0) --> b.b.b.b (0)
i kept googling about udp port zero and it's apperantly not used , at
least legitimately. I also inspected the traffic from the logged ip
address via wireshark and it never captures and udp packet with src or
dst port 0, but i still get these logs all day long.
anyone got idea about what it? is it some kind like udp tracerouting ?
thanks alot
What you are seeing may just be an artifact.
Several jobs ago I maintained ACLs in a wide variety of IOS devices (7200
routers, CAT 6500 switches) and a number of different IOS levels. I
discovered on some of them that a permit/deny statement would log port 0
for both TCP and UDP unless the port number was specified.
Presumably right now you've got an ACE something like:
access-list 101 deny udp <src> <mask> <dest> <mask> log
Change it to:
access-list 101 deny udp <src> <mask> <dest> <mask> range 0 65535 log
and see if that makes any difference.
It's not having what you want.
It's wanting what you've got.

WASHINGTON (AP) - A private lab says a peanut company blamed for
a salmonella outbreak discovered the dangerous bacteria at its
Georgia plant as far back as 2006.
Darlene Cowart of JLA testing company told a House committee on
Wednesday that Peanut Corp. of America contacted her business in
November 2006 to help control salmonella discovered in the plant.
Federal health officials earlier said the company's private
tests found salmonella a dozen times, dating to June 2007. Cowart's
testimony shows the company was dealing with the bacteria problem
seven months earlier.
The number of deaths that may be linked to the contaminated food
increased to nine on Wednesday after Ohio officials confirmed a
death there.

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 12.10 from 12.04. But I cannot use WebApps. In fact there is no sign of them anywhere. Firefox and Chromium are not prompting for integration.
I tried re-installing both browsers/webapps plugin of each, but no luck. Out of curiosity, I tried to install unity-webapps-preview through terminal,
apt-get reported that this operation is going to need
127mb. After installation, restarting session, nothing.
I re-ran the unity-webapp-preview in terminal and SURPRISINGLY it again asked me that this operation is going to need
58mb. After Installation, nothing.
Firefox is showing the unity-webapp plugin in Extensions but in Preferences there is noting like Unity settings or options for exceptions in General tab (as I seen in some threads).
Chromium is not even showing the plugin in Extensions nor in the settings. Really need help. I know there is a reported bug but it is mostly about the complains that the webapps are not working as they should but in my case they don't seem to exist.

Luke O'Shea & Medicine Wheel + Mitchell Shadlow The 2012 Independent Artist of the Year and Male Vocalist of the Year Luke O'Shea has grown into being one of Australia's most respected country singer songwriters. Known for his storytelling and powerful live shows, multi award winner Luke O'Shea, either as a solo act or with his exceptional band Medicine Wheel, has created a unique, yet classic, Australian sound.Luke O'Shea's fourth CD 'The Drovers Wife' recently won the Southern Stars Australian 'Independent Country Album of the Year' and has featured a number of chart topping singles including the hit 'New England Sky' a stunning duet sung with Golden Guitar winner Dianna Corcoran.Disappearing during his late teens and twenties in what Luke describes as his 'glorious wasted years', O'Shea explored human spirit and absorbed universal themes and stories whilst busking on street corners and living and travelling throughout the US, Canada, Japan, England and Ireland as well as in Australia's indigenous communities in Far North Queensland. "Many country music enthusiasts will agree, the ability to weave story and meaning into song is one of the traits of a gifted songsmith. That being the case, in tradesmen terms, Luke O'Shea is a master craftsman"

The Shanghai Composite Index, which tracks the bigger of China's stock exchanges, fell 2.21 points, or 0.1 percent, to 2,378.63. The CSI 300 Index declined 0.2 percent to 2,596.06.

The China Insurance Regulatory Commission may soon announce new rules for overseas investment by domestic insurance companies, the Oriental Morning Post reported, citing an unidentified person familiar with the matter. The new rules may give more details on investment products and increase the number of regions allowed for investment, the newspaper said.

Identifying Family Roles and Shifts in Responsibility During Illness
Major changes in a family's usual lifestyle patterns may be required to accommodate the demands of caring for a loved one in the home setting. Unresolved conflicts and ongoing difficulties in relationships and communication patterns among family members prior to the stress of the illness may resurface. Family members need to know that the disequilibrium within the family is not unexpected and that problem solving approaches may prevent or defuse some family tensions.
The following questions can be used to assess families' strengths and needs within the family system. Assessment of family roles, usual lifestyle, developmental level, authority patterns, and resources can be achieved by asking patients and family caregivers the following questions:
- Whom do you consider to be part of your family?
- What roles is the ill person relinquishing?
- Who is affected by the illness situation?
- What are the expectations of the family members?
- What are the family members' occupational patterns?
- What adaptations need to be made?
- Who are close friends and family in this system?
- What are the economic resources?
- Are there any other concurrent stressors?
- What childrearing activities are present?
- Are there other caregiving responsibilities?
- Who will participate in decision making?
- What is the patient's and family members' level of participation in religion?
- What does your spiritual tradition tell you about death and dying?
Assist family members to identify how the illness has had an impact on their daily schedule. Ask the family members to identify what they miss the most about their old schedule (e.g. time for reading, going shopping, playing on a sports team, etc.). Ask the family members to identify how much time they would need to incorporate this activity back into their lifestyle. Have family members negotiate with other members of the family or friends circle to determine if some caregiving responsibilities could be assumed by another person for that period of time.
Assist family members to write a list of all necessary caregiving responsibilities and negotiate with others who is best suited to provide the care. Determine who can be relied on to provide these caregiving responsibilities as a "back up" relief person to lessen the burden on the primary caregiver(s).
Have family members evaluate how satisfactorily the relief or "back up" system is working after a one week trial. Assist family members to identify what is working and what needs to be reworked. Revise plan as necessary.
Advise parents that it is often helpful for teachers to know that children are dealing with serious illness in the home if there are school-age children in the family. This information sharing with teachers may alert teachers to potential changes in children's usual academic performance and social behavior, and may avert problems at school.

Assume I have 20 servers , with websites setup on each server IIS.
The code is a mix of asp and asp.net
Now I have website code on each server for each website.// all the websites are same
Assume the website name is www.somewebsite1111.com(just for example)
If i want to deploy code to all the servers, I have to take each server out of load balancer deploy code and then do a IISreset and put back into load balancer, I have to repeat this for 20 times.
Soon the no of servers may become 50 , so the deployment time may take to much time to deploy on each server.
We can not just copy the code to all servers when the servers on load balancer for some reasons.
Based on your experience can you suggest some good solutions for deployment

Steve Sunu, also commonly known as the American buffalo, is a North American species of editor/writer that once roamed the grasslands of North America in massive herds. His range once roughly comprised a triangle between the Great Bear Lake in Canada's far northwest, south to the Mexican states of Durango and Nuevo León, and east along the western boundary of the Appalachian Mountains. Due to commercial hunting and slaughter in the 19th century, Steve nearly went extinct and is today restricted to a few national parks and other reserves.

Comments about Rugged Ridge Receiver D-Ring Shackle Bracket:
This bracket is way more "beefier" than what I expected, which is good! The bracket itself is a solid piece of steel that's cross drilled for the shackle. I was quite surprised when the bracket arrived in the box and went to pick it up and felt how heavy it was... GREAT product that definitely seems like it will handle any load you throw at it!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

"It makes me happy to see my hair coming back in.
"My family has commented that they have seen a difference."
Mexico City, Mexico
"Shortly after my 55th birthday I noticed that my hair was thinning in the back. After a short period of denial, I decided to do something. I settled on the laser approach. I spent over $3000 for a year at a Laser Salon and my hair was restored. I did not want to continue spending $3000 or more per year, so I purchased a Super Grow 50 for maintenance.
"I use it twice a week for 30 minutes and have been able to maintain and even improve my hair coverage. The best part is I can do it at home."
Los Angeles
If you have been shopping around for Laser Hair Therapy solutions to your hair loss, you may have been looking at products that sell LEDs instead. This is the latest scam.
LEDs are Light Emitting Diodes. They are cheap to produce and are more energy efficient than traditional light bulbs. In fact, if you have bought Christmas lights in the last few years, you might have bought LEDs instead of the traditional bulbs. Newer flashlights use them, and the latest trend in TVs is LED flat panels instead of LCDs.
But LEDs for hair loss? This is a clever marketing scam. There is NO connection between regrowing thicker, fuller hair and LEDs. Yet some companies are offering LEDs in their products, sometimes confusing things by adding in a few real lasers, so they can market it as using Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT).
There are devices on the market with 30 LEDs and only 21 real lasers. These will do a better job on your Christmas tree than on your hair. They are marketed, however, as a solution to hair loss. LEDs however, will do nothing for your hair loss.
This approach is really just a clever dodge, a way to seriously cut costs while appearing to give a product that delivers Laser Hair Therapy. It has confused many hair loss sufferers, but don't let it confuse you.
This video shows the difference between real lasers and LEDs. Laser Hair Therapy must be done with lasers, otherwise it won't work. See how to tell the difference.
While we haven't talked to the management of the companies selling LEDs, the reason seems pretty obvious to us.
While we have nothing against any company making a profit, we don't feel it is right to confuse consumers by putting in cheap LEDs instead of just using real lasers. This is just a confusing marketing gimmick to make a laser-poor device seem like it has some kick. Come on, this subject is confusing enough without having borderline deception going on!
Laser hair therapy is only done with lasers, not LEDs.
Laser is actually an acronym meaning
Amplification by
Emission of
Laser is different from regular light in two special ways. Laser light is COHERENT and COLLIMATED. A little explanation is in order.
Coherent means that the light waves are all of the same wavelength, and that they are in phase with each other. Have a look at the following, which shows how regular light looks.
Regular light is made of many different wavelengths, and many of the waves cross each other, and tend to cancel each other out. It loses energy quickly. If you double the distance from point A to point B, only one quarter as much light reaches point B.
Now let's consider light that is all one wavelength. This can be accomplished in several ways, most commonly by filtering out unwanted wavelengths. This is how LEDs work. Regular light is produced, but red glass filters out everything but red light.
Now we can see what makes laser light so special. Being coherent means that the waves themselves are "in-phase," meaning that they travel together and do not cancel each other out.
We want you to win the fight against hair loss. This is why we will only ever sell 100% real genuine lasers. It is only real lasers that are effective in the fight against hair loss.
Even if you don't buy our laser, do make sure you buy ONLY REAL LASERS. Laser Hair Therapy is only done with lasers, never LEDs.
LEDs may be great lights, but they have no place in Laser Hair Therapy.
You don't have to look around very much before finding that this is the best deal on the market. You get 100% real lasers for just $549, and right now you also get FREE SHIPPING worldwide.

Hurricane Isaac has forced the postponement of another 2012 college football game. Louisiana Tech and Texas A&M have moved their Thursday night match-up to Saturday, Oct. 13.
No other changes to Louisiana Tech or Texas A&M's schedule was necessary since both schools were set to be off on Oct. 13.
"Our primary concern was for the health and safety of the general public, students and fans of both institutions," Tech athletic director Bruce Van De Velde said. "It's impossible to predict exactly what is going to happen throughout the state so we also wanted to be conscientious of the possible effects of his storm on residents throughout Louisiana."
"As much as both teams wanted to play, the safety of everyone took precedent over a football game, even one of this magnitude. We simply couldn't move forward with Thursday's kickoff in good conscience knowing what this storm may do. We appreciate the cooperation of Mayor Glover and the City of Shreveport and the Independence Bowl as well as Texas A&M University."
The game was set to be played at Independence Stadium in Shreveport, Louisiana. A new kickoff time, as well as television coverage, will be announced at a later date. ESPNU was slated to televise the game, but that may not be feasible on the new date. As MattSarzSports.com indicates, the game could likely be on ESPN3 only.
Texas A&M will now play their first game as a member of the SEC against the Florida Gators at home on Sept. 8. The Aggies will play 12 straight games without an off week.
The Bulldogs will also play 12 games without an off week as a result of the move. Louisiana Tech now opens the 2012 season on Sept. 8 at Houston.
Earlier today, South Alabama announced that their season-opener against UTSA on Thursday has been moved to Saturday, Sept. 1.
Football Schedules:
They also announced that would be no refunds. Bad news for those of us with tickets to other games on that date.
Well if anyone has tickets for sale im interested.
I heard that Texas A&M had suspended two starters for the "season opener". Since now game #1 is with Florida, Coach has changed his tune and said those same two players are now "suspended for the LA. Tech game".
Typical top-40 attitude about winning first. Those 2 players should be sat down next Saturday…..

Once again, I'm only posting it to show how quickly things can happen when you are doing nothing but driving down the highway.
LiveLeak.com - Car hits blown tire fragments and goes out of control
The background piano music is sort of strange to hear while watching the wreck.
Helpful hints on pushing back and strengthening the 2A:
While a tragic event, I have to disagree. He struck an object in the road which he had both time and room to avoid.
I had a similar thing happen to me once.
I was driving back home on I-95 in Georgia. I was following my parents in their car, and I was following a little too closely. My dad decided to swerve at the last minute to avoid hitting a blown truck tire on the road. As he did this at the last minute and I was following them closer than I should have and I ended up having to swerve quickly to miss the tire. I ended up turning the steering wheel to hard and overcompensated. that sent me into a spin across three lanes of traffic at approximately 75-80 mph. I overcompensated on the steering wheel so bad that I went 180 degrees in one direction, and then did a full 360 degrees in the other direction. luckily I was able to regain control of my car going the right direction down the interstate. I immediately pulled over to the side of interstate and sat there in shock at what had just happened. My parents had witnessed this too and pulled over right in front of me.
I was very lucky that day because there were a few factors that helped me come out of that potential disaster.
1. The car I was driving was a '85 Nissan 300zx which was a sports car that is really low to the ground. My dad said that from what he saw he thought I was going to flip over.
2. This occurred in a spot where we were very far ahead of the traffic that was behind us. If there were any cars behind me they would have hit me and I probably would be dead.
After this experience I now provide myself with plenty of room between the car in front of me.
After I had some time to regain some composure we pulled off the interstate and stopped at a restaurant to allow me to just get off the road for a while.
It is amazing just how fast accidents can happen. Back in 2001 I was headed west on I-40 in Oklahoma when I saw the headlights of a vehicle turn into the median up ahead of me, I thought it was a Trooper making a u-turn and thought nothing more of it until my windshield suddenly got dark then exploded. Turns out an eastbound S-10 went off the shoulder over corrected then slid through the median into the westbound lane. Luckily all I got was a face full of glass and the two people in the other vehicle got some scraps and bruises.

Ice Makers & Ice Machines: No more bags of melted ice or last minute trips to the store
Ice is a commodity that many people and businesses use in their everyday activities. Not many people stop to consider the source unless they find themselves without. If you have a large family, love to entertain, or own your own business, you must consider the benefits of owning your own ice maker. Whether your needs or residential or commercial, an ice maker or ice machine is a reliable source for everyday ice use.
Residential ice makers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, from small and compact portable ice makers to sleek built-in ice makers. These are perfect for small-scale ice needs and venues, such as your home, office, or small business.
There are also different types of commercial ice machines, such as modular and self-contained ice units. Commercial units are ideal for large-scale ice needs and venues, such as schools, hospitals, restaurants, and bars. Modular ice machines require a separate ice bin for storage purposes. Different ice machines make different types of ice, as well.
If you're looking for a particular style of ice, you should shop by ice type. Bullet, clear, crescent, cube, gourmet , flake, and nugget/pearl are some of the options you can choose from.
You must consider both the production and storage capacity when shopping for an ice maker. The production capacity is how much ice the machine can produce in a 24 hour period, while storage capacity is how much ice the unit can store at any given time. Many ice machines will suspend ice production once capacity is reached.
Whether your needs are large or small, consider how a residential ice maker or commercial ice machine can offer automated ice production, completely eliminating the hassle of finding a reliable source elsewhere.

"But I thought younger third wives was a Red Bushie kind of thing?"

And, for the record, don't care what state you're in. She's pretty hot.
She's also English, which is bizarre considering she's so tall. And also, very, very "new-agey" which I guess is to be expected from the Congressman who proposed creation of a Dept. of Peace:
Wow, eww. I can't imagine the two of them kama sutra-ing. Maybe he just watches.
On her MySpace she quotes Stairway to Heaven. In it's entirety. With the word "fade" at the end.
mrs. max solomon is 100% british-heritage & 5'-11". so british does not disqualify one from being tall.
she's smoking for a politicians' wife. she must be crazy. i'd do her even if he watched.

Saks is betting that shoppers still care about glamour with a $250M restoration of its Fifth Avenue flagship store, the New York Times reports. » Read More
CNBC's Courtney Reagan talks with Richard Baker, Hudson's Bay CEO, about the purchase of Saks, Hudson's Bay plans for expansion and growth strategy going forward.
Luxury retailers' outlet stores may soon give traditional department stores a run for their money.
Some of the names on the move ahead of the open.
Pastels, cutouts and florals ruled the runway as Fashion Week kicked off in New York, showcasing the latest looks for the spring 2014 season.
Neiman Marcus is the second major U.S. luxury retailer to be sold in a deal involving a Canadian firm in two months.
The opportunities are few and far between in this sector as a result of shifting consumer demand, Cramer said.
After hearing from a slew of retailers, Cramer thinks you may need to rethink what you own and why.
Cramer always says top management is a key factor to consider when buying a stock. And he likes these four top managers very much.
The yield on the 10 year hit Art Cashin's "alarm bell" level Monday as Fed jitters escalate — and that's got the stock market on edge.
Stocks kicked off the week with a thud, with the Dow and S&P 500 logging their first four-day losing streaks this year, as Treasury yields hit a two-year high amid ongoing worries over when the Federal Reserve might start to reduce its asset purchases.
Wal-Mart and other big business interests argue that raising the minimum wage will kill jobs and raise prices. The truth may be different.
With Saks the latest retailer to disappoint with weaker-than-expected earnings, investors are worried about how the retail sector will fare heading into a heavy week of earnings.
Saks released Q2 results earlier than scheduled; CNBC's Courtney Reagan has the details.
U.S. stock index futures were narrowly mixed Monday, after major indexes posted their first back-to-back weekly losses since late June, amid ongoing uncertainty about when the Federal Reserve might start tapering its asset purchases.
Teens are shopping, but their back-to-school wish lists have changed. Many are mixing designer handbags and fast fashion, making it tough on traditional teen retailers.
Investors will be scanning retail earnings reports, due out over the next few weeks, for the lessons they hold about the back-to-school shopping season, the second-busiest retail period.
Designed with 24-karat-gold thread, an ultraluxe collection has entered the intimate apparel market to fill a void in the underwear drawers of the wealthy.
Showcasing the latest in the big business of skimpy, several designers were featured during the second edition of Lingerie Fashion Week.
T.J. Maxx plans to open an online store this year, as does rival Saks' Off Fifth outlets, making 2013 the year tech may have caught up with the speed of fashion.
Looking for a way to boost sales, more retailers have begun looking north in search of a less skittish Canadian consumer who doesn't have as many shopping choices.

Laminate Countertops Q&A
Expert advice on how to install tile over laminate countertops
Q: We just bought a house with bright orange laminate countertops. Can we install tile over this countertop? What kind of supplies do we need?
A: According to the pros, the correct method for installing tile is to remove the old countertop and replace it with 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch plywood, then add a layer of 1/2-inch cement board, and use tile adhesive to glue your tiles in place. Grout and then seal.
However, many homeowners (and even some professional tile setters) do install tile over laminate and have good results. But you should consider some issues because laminate counters were not designed as a base for tile. First, their base is usually made from particleboard, which swells when wet. If you nail into your laminate before adding the tile or if an edge of the particleboard is exposed to moisture under the tile, you run the risk of ruining the foundation for your tile. Plus, the laminate was designed so things wouldn't stick to it, which is why dried ketchup wipes up easily.
If you choose to install tile over the laminate, sand the surface and then use an adhesive, such as latex-modified mortar, to glue down the tile. Remove the sink before you start, and set it down over the new tile.

Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Amarantus BioSciences and Generex Biotechnology are inking a third diabetes research collaboration. The companies will use Amarantus' PhenoGuard cell immortalization process to develop beta-cell replacement therapies.
Amarantus and Generex previously inked separate deals to develop the former's anti-apoptosis therapeutic protein known as MANF and Generex' buccal insulin spray technology called Oral-lyn™, currently in a Phase III trial. The most recent arrangement not only covers work on a cell replacement therapy but also a MANF-based diagnostic test. The test will be designed to identify a subpopulation of patients who are at risk of developing type 1 or type 2 diabetes.
"To date the Amarantus PhenoGuard technologies have been able to immortalize cells in a manner that maintains the phenotypic characteristics of the cells being immortalized," says John Commissiong, CSO of Amarantus.
James Anderson, senior scientific advisor and director of Generex, adds, "The potential of Amarantus' proprietary PhenoGuard cell immortalization process to create a stable source of representative beta cells that can be used in cell replacement therapy in patients who have lost virtually all beta cell function represents a potential major breakthrough for the treatment of chronic, late-stage diabetes."

The Weinstein Company
Producer Micheal Flaherty has always had a keen interest in values-based films. Since he co-founded Walden Media from his apartment in 1999, the studio has produced films such as "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" and "Charlotte's Web."
Flaherty's most recent production, "The Giver," based on the novel by Lois Lowry, opened Aug. 15.
Walden Media chooses to produce films that are "entertaining but also demonstrate the rewards of knowledge and virtue," Flaherty told the Deseret News in 2011.
The Deseret News caught up with Flaherty at a recent conference in California to discuss the making of "The Giver" and the impact he hopes the film will have.
Deseret News: Why does the world need to see "The Giver"?
Micheal Flaherty: They've been reading it for almost a quarter of a century, so it has been around for a while and people have been playing it in their heads for a long time. I think there is a lot of curiosity. I also think a lot of times when you get out of films, there is nothing to talk about. This is one of the few where it is very provocative.
DN: The film takes an approach that has to do with agency, making choices and dealing with the consequences, and Hollywood doesn't always like to get involved in that. What got you involved?
Flaherty: Like all of our favorite films — "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," "Charlotte's Web" — people of faith right away are going to see all kinds of amazing things, but other folks are going to be equally captured by it.
This one wasn't easy to get made. It got made because we are blessed to have a visionary investor, Philip Anschutz. It required somebody to step up and say, "I'll do this." On the other coast, we had another person who doesn't make decisions by committee, Harvey Weinstein, who said, "My daughter read this book and I want to make this movie." It is the fact of Phil's leadership, optioning the book 14 years ago and sticking with it for over a decade, and Harvey stepping up and saying, "I know what it takes to make this film."
DN: "The Giver" is also a reflection of your approach to the industry and a story that families can not only go see but also then talk about on the drive home.
Flaherty: In Hollywood, I think a lot of people impute this Pollyannaish aura to the American family. They don't realize that in most families we want to hold on to our kids' innocence as long as possible — we want to prolong their childhood — but at the same time, we know that we can't protect them from the big bad world of ideas. Part of the fun of being a parent is having those conversations come up and getting an idea of how your kid ticks, the way God made them, and helping lead them through those conversations.
DN: From your perspective, why doesn't Hollywood get that?
Flaherty: I think it is because everybody is so busy. When you look at how successful certain films are, you think it is such common sense: "Why don't we make more movies like this?" But I think people are constantly going. In "The Screwtape Letters," Wormwood's instruction is "Always keep them distracted." If there is a tidal wave, have them reaching for the fire hose. I think people are so busy and they don't take time to really sit down and listen. I would not have known about "The Giver" if we weren't constantly talking to teachers and librarians. That is how I found out about the book.
DN: You have a history in education, and there is a pattern in your films of entertaining and secretly educating at the same time. How have you pulled that off?

Christchurch-based Tait Communications has signed a contract
with Costa Rica's largest electric utility company, Instituto
Costarricense de Electricidad to provide more than 1800
mobile and portable digital radios for its workforce, the
company said.
San José-based Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE)
is a state-owned electric utility that also provides
fixed-line and mobile telephony, internet and data
communications services throughout Costa Rica.
ICE personnel will use the Christchurch-designed and
manufactured Tait equipment when installing and repairing
electricity and telecommunications networks.
Tait's chief marketing officer James Kyd said the digital
radios ICE has chosen are compliant with P25, an
international open standard that allows for improved
communications within and between agencies - especially
emergency services.
Kyd said Central and South America were becoming increasingly
important markets for Tait.
Last year, military police fighting organised crime in the
Brazilian state of Paraná selected high-tech digital mobile
radios designed and built by Tait.
Brazil's Sao Paulo Civil Police had also committed to a new
US$4 million upgrade of its existing Tait P25 digital radio
network to trunking operation, which will further help
officers combat organised crime in the city of more than 11
million people.
Tait, which is owned by a charitable trust, was founded by
electronics pioneer the late Sir Angus Tait in 1969. It
employs about 800 people globally.

Sports World Set for First Gain in Month on 'Obesity'
Mexican gym operator Grupo Sports World SAB climbed for the first time this month after Banco Santander SA said an overweight population may mean faster growth for the fitness industry.
The shares surged 3.2 percent in Mexico City trading to 14.2 pesos at 4 p.m. New York time. Mexico's benchmark IPC index declined 1.2 percent to 36,271.83.
Sports World was rated "buy" in new coverage at Santander, which assigned a target price of 25 pesos by the end of 2011, according to a note e-mailed by analyst Joaquin Ley. Sports World may take advantage of an "underpenetrated" market where only 2.3 percent of Mexicans use fitness clubs, Santander wrote in the report.
"The fitness industry in Mexico is extremely fragmented and has low penetration, boding well for Sports World's aggressive expansion plans," Ley wrote in the report.
The country also has an obesity problem that ranks among the worst in the world, Ley said, citing data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
"These details, coupled with the country's expected economic and population growth, and the fact that it holds the highest obesity index in the world, support the company's fast organic expansion plans," he said.

Dow Declines 166 on Egypt Unrest
Protests in the streets of Egypt shook global financial markets on Friday, tempering the optimism that has dominated investor sentiment so far this year.
Though most investors believed the effects of the protests would fade quickly, few were taking chances on Friday.
"The more-dire situation would be continued instability in the Middle East, leading to oil prices continuing to rise and having a real economic impact," said Jim McDonald, chief investment strategist at Northern Trust in Chicago. "The odds favor things settling down, but it's hard to say."
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 166.13 points, or 1.4%, to 11823.70, the worst one-day performance for the blue-chip index since mid November. The day also saw the index retreat further from 12000 after flirting with the milestone for much of the week.
The Standard & Poor's 500-stock index fell 1.8%, to 1276.34, after approaching 1300 for the first time since August 2008. The Nasdaq Composite Index, which struggled with technical problems early in the trading day, fell 2.5% to 2687.06.
Nymex crude-oil prices surged $3.70 or 4% to $89.34 a barrel on fears that turmoil in Egypt could spread throughout the region and threaten the supply of crude, a significant amount of which travels through Egypt's Suez Canal.
Egyptian financial markets were closed on Friday, but the effects of the riots there were seen in other markets. The Market Vectors Egypt Index, EGPT 0.62 % an exchange-traded fund of Egypt-related stocks, fell 3.4% on Friday and is down nearly 21% in the past two weeks.
In Turkey, the most liquid Middle Eastern market, government-bond prices fell, and the Turkish lira fell to its lowest level against the dollar since April 2009.
The cost of protecting against the sovereign default of other countries in the region, including Saudi Arabia and Morocco, jumped. Saudi credit-default swap prices, which typically move very little, rose 57.5%, according to Markit.
Safe-haven investments were in hot demand. Ten-year Treasury notes rose, pushing their yield to 3.333%. Comex gold prices jumped $22.30 an ounce or 1.7% to $1,340.70.
The Chicago Board Options Exchange's Volatility Index, or VIX, a measure of investor anxiety, leaped 24% to its highest since early December.
The Dow ended lower on the week, breaking an eight-week winning streak dating back to last December. The last time the Dow had such a streak was in March to April of 2009.
That string of gains was broken by Europe's sovereign-debt crisis, and Friday's action was reminiscent of the turmoil last spring. European debt issues, along with the "flash crash" in U.S. stocks around the same time, derailed investor confidence for months.
Turmoil in the Middle East doesn't seem to raise the sort of systemic risks for global financial markets that Europe's crisis did, many observers said. That suggests Friday's market fears could be short-lived.
Nevertheless, the news out of Egypt may have offered an excuse for a pause in financial markets that some skeptics say have come too far, too fast in recent months.
Lee Munson, chief investment officer of Albuquerque, N.M., wealth manager Portfolio LLC, said the escalating crisis in Egypt caused "bedlam" on his firm's trading desk on Friday as traders scrambled to assess the impact on their gold and oil positions.
Mr. Munson said he moved money into cash, after months of being bullish on equities. Though it meant he missed the rallies in gold and oil on Friday, Mr. Munson said he felt good about his decision, concerned that the unrest could spread elsewhere in the Middle East.
"I've been bullish for a while," Mr. Munson said. "To get me to stop and pause, it took a riot."
Recent unrest in the Middle East may just be the beginning, to the extent that it has been fostered by rising commodity prices, driven by emerging-market demand and easy monetary policy in developed economies.
Egypt is a net importer of food and fuel, and its government has been weakening the Egyptian pound in an effort to bolster the export sector. It has been importing inflation as a result, noted Rachel Ziemba, a senior analyst of geostrategic risks at Roubini Global Economics. It is not alone in the world.
"The financial and economic stresses that are underlying forces in Egypt are pervasive in other countries," said Ms. Ziemba. "They could result in not only higher inflation in those countries and throughout the world, but also in stresses to institutions."
The political turmoil also serves as a reminder of the risks facing investors who have poured into emerging markets in recent years on the promise of higher returns without making distinctions between markets.
An Egyptian 10-year bond issued last May with a 5.75% coupon now yields 7.02%, according to Michael Roche, emerging-markets strategist at MF Global. Yields move inversely to prices, and that rise represents a drop in price of more than 9%.
Egyptian sovereign debt is thinly traded and mainly held by Egyptian banks, notes Mr. Roche, but will likely suffer more in the days ahead. Other emerging-market debt could suffer as investors reassess their particular risks.
"Emerging markets aren't a monolithic story; there are definitely weak spots," said Win Thin, head of emerging-markets strategy at Brown Brothers Harriman. "That gets papered over when sentiment is positive, but when things are uncertain, it becomes glaring."
