WETUMPKA, Ala. (AP) -- Leaders of the Poarch Band of Creek Indians have agreed to stop construction of a planned 20-story hotel and casino in Wetumpka.
The Montgomery Advertiser reports (http://on.mgmadv.com/XoeN5j) that the Poarch Band and the Muscogee Nation of Creek Indians said in statements that construction stopped on Tuesday at 5 p.m.
The Muscogee Nation had objected to the project. The tribe has historic ties to the land and is objecting to the graves of its ancestors being exhumed and moved to make way for the expansion by the Poarch Creeks.
Robert McGhee, treasurer for the tribal council for the Poarch Creek Indians, said tribal leaders are planning to meet with Muscogee Nation leaders in the coming days to discuss the matter.

Portal 2 – DirectX 9 and 3D
One of the most anticipated titles of this year Portal 2 uses Valve's Source engine to create a nice looking game environment. Add to that the recent updates to NVIDIA's driver which give the game an "Excellent" rating for 3D Vision and we have the ideal title to test the performance of stereoscopic 3D.
Testing was performed at 1920×1080 with 8x anti-aliasing enabled. Maximum in-game settings were enabled also.
The above results tell us that the GTX 560 is an ideal card for experiencing Portal 2 in stereo 3D. Performance never drops below 33 frames per second and averages far higher, only limited by the 60fps cap in this mode of gaming. As we expected from a game which is rated as Excellent for 3D Vision the image quality is perfect and in many cases very cool as we look through the depth of portals in the level. A must buy title for 3D enthusiasts.

Is there any topological Property $P$ if it is satisfied on a subspace topology $N$ of a topological space $X$, then it must be satisfied on a topological space $X$. Thanks.
Not first-countable. Not second-countable. Not Hausdorff. Not regular. Not completely regular. Not T0. Not T1. Not metrizable.
In general, if $\mathfrak{P}$ is a topological property inherited by subspaces, then the topological property not-$\mathfrak{P}$ is of the kind sought.
Recall that a topological property is called hereditary if the following holds: If $X$ has the property P and $N$ is subspace of $X$, then $N$ also has the property P.
If you take any hereditary property P, the negation of it $\neg P$ will fulfill the conditions you ask in your post.
In fact, the property $P$ is hereditary if and only if $\neg P$ has fulfills the requirements from your post.
In some contexts, results of this type are might be called reflection theorems. However, as the two formulations are equivalent, they can be formulated as in your post, or dually. Quite often some additional condition is given on the subspace.
The following quote is from Encyclopedia of General Topology; Edited by: Klaas Pieter Hart, Jun-iti Nagata and Jerry E. Vaughan, Elsevier, 2003, p.16.
Do you consider having a nontrivial open set to be a topological property? $N \not = \emptyset$ implies $X \not = \emptyset$, so $N$ having a nontrivial open set implies that $X$ does too. You could cook up other "properties" like this that satisfy your answer, but in a boring way. (Like that $X$ contains a property $P$ subspace.)
But in general I don't think so - if I can write $X$ as the disjoint union of $N$ and $M$, then most properties I can think of have to be satisfied by $N$ and $M$ in order to be satisfied by $X$ (the separation axioms, for instance). For others (such as connectedness), this is not enough.
But the upshot is that if you hand me a property that a space $N$ has and a space $M$ doesn't, then I think $N \dot \cup M$ is unlikely to have that property. This is especially so if that property can be characterized locally, or by some global characteristic - like that a space being compact implies that every closed set is compact.
I would like to be proved wrong though.

Understanding the Complex World of Linear Resistors
Dennis M. Zogbi
The basic definition of a linear resistor is a device used to control current in an electric circuit by providing resistance due to a voltage drop across its terminals. This feature makes it applicable both as a resistor, in the classic sense, and as a sensor in the more modern sense. Linear resistors, which will account for more than 1 trillion pieces shipped in 2006 worldwide, will be in substantial demand again in 2007 for wireless handsets, computer motherboards, game consoles, and HDTV. This article explains the diverse nature of the linear resistor market and how engineers choose their resistors based upon type.
There are two commonly used categories for linear resistors based on their configuration: surface mount or through-hole.
Additionally, there are 10 distinct sub-categories within the linear resistor market based upon component type.
Linear resistors are common and can be found in bills of material for every electronic box built worldwide because of the scientific maxim that requires resistance in every circuit, regardless of application. The common vernacular to describe this ubiquitous product line is a mixture of resistive element and configuration descriptions.
To keep with the concept of resistive elements used in linear resistor descriptions, the market can also be broken down into "precious" and "base metal" designs. This type of description is typically reserved for ceramic capacitors but is also applicable in understanding the complex resistor market, which is among the oldest for all electronics, stretching back in its modern sense about 60 years.
Precious metal elements used in linear resistors are predominantly ruthenium based, and ruthenium oxide or ruthenium pyrochlore mixed with electronic glass, and screened onto an alumina substrate accounts for the way most electronic circuits from computers to wireless handsets solve their ohmic requirements. Palladium mixed with silver is also used in some resistor applications requiring low ohmic values. Precious metal resistors are almost 100% surface mount, and are used in thick film chips, multichip arrays, and dual in-line package type resistors. Single in-line packages, which are through-hole in design, also use precious metals; and this is where we find much of the Pd/Ag use for resistors, especially for subscriber line interface cards used in central office telephone applications.
Base metal resistors are predominantly based upon nickel chromium. Nickel chromium is consumed in three forms in resistors- as a film, a foil and an extruded wire. Additional base metals used in resistors include tin-oxide, more popularly known as Antimony-10, tantalum nitride, used in integrated passive devices, and carbon film resistors, which are used in CRT type TV sets.
The following list quantifies linear resistors by configuration, type, and construction:
The need for so many different types of resistors is ultimately reflective of market demand. When the diversity of ohmic value requirements, power requirements, frequency requirements, and operating environment are considered, the large number of choices in resistors is justified and can further be used to understand the value and volume of demand for resistors by type.
In terms of a linear resistor's capacity to provide an ohmic value in an electronic circuit, we note a correspondence between the resistive element and resistor type, and the historical introduction of the product line. In short, the older types of resistors, such as wirewound, carbon, nickel chromium and tin-oxide have the ability to provide ohmic values to 1 GigaOhm. Products that saw most of their growth after 1990, such as ruthenium based thick film chips, arrays and networks have ohmic handling capabilities to handle the advent of wireless communications to 6 GigaOhms, with thin film designs based upon tantalum nitride or nichrome resistive elements going to 20 GigaOhms. It is also important to note that all resistors, regardless of type, will offer to at least 10 MegaOhms, if not 100 Megaohms, which is a testament to their use as resistors to begin with. It is when we go beyond the 100 Megaohm mark that we see more of an exclusive reliance upon ruthenium thick film designs, or tantalum nitride thin film designs to achieve the required ohmic value. These higher ohmic value requirements are usually telecom infrastructure, satellite or defense communications related; whereas consumer electronic devices, such as handsets and microprocessors operating at above 1 Gigahertz, represent the bulk of unit demand, and is therefore predominantly solved by the all encompassing- ruthenium based thick film chip resistor and resistor array.
Many design engineers are now specifying resistors with tighter tolerances. For extremely tight tolerances, such as those found in computing and data networking, many companies look toward nichrome or tantalum based thin film resistors to provide tolerances below 0.05%. The majority of resistors manufactured today have a 5% tolerance rating, which is considered the precision level with the greatest volume and the lowest price. As companies look toward tighter tolerances they generally reach a barrier of 0.5% with the ubiquitous thick film ruthenium chip resistor and must move into the thin film environment to go to tolerances less than 0.1%
When we look at power handling requirements, we see why the older legacy products are still lucrative, as their designs, old as they may seem, are still very important in industrial electronics. In terms of power handling we note that almost all resistors, regardless of type, are generally operational from 0.25 to 5 Watts; although the tin-oxide and wirewound versions are generally not sold below 0.5 watts because their customers do not need such low power handling. On the opposite end of the spectrum, we note how wirewound resistors are used well beyond any of the other resistor products when it comes to power. Still, the majority of resistor products have excellent power handling features that encompass most consumer and professional applications.
In terms of configuration requirements for resistors, which are determined in effect by the design engineer so that they conform to the physical constraints of their PCB canvass, we note the considerable number of sub-categories of resistors, as they are available by configuration, another important determining factor in how and why they are sold. In terms of through-hole products we note with interest how the overwhelming majority of them are axial leaded designs, while only the bulk metal foil and the wirewound resistor maintains any volume on radial leaded designs. In surface mount versions, we note once again how a conformally molded surface mount version of the wirewound and the bulk metal foil resistor are available, while the nickel chromium version is available in a MELF design (surface mount, but cylindrical). In arrays, only the thick film ruthenium chip is available in a multi-chip array format. In traditional resistor networks, configurations for the dual in line package now include bare die models without plastic packaging. There is also a myriad of custom package designs, including stacked resistor designs as well as integrated passive networks that employ packaging previously reserved for semiconductors and other active components.
The global linear resistor market has a global market value of more than $2 billion USD and more than 1 trillion units sold in 2006. 64% of global value of demand for linear resistors is for the thick film chip, the multichip array and the resistor network because of their common usage in consumer digital electronics applications worldwide. The remaining 36% of global consumption value is broken into a fragmented area that contains the remaining types of linear resistor components, with wirewound, thin film tantalum nitride and nichrome metal film accounting for a substantial portion of the remaining revenues for linear resistors on a global basis.
Global consumption value for linear resistors based upon end-use market segment is as diverse as the number of products that are made available for consumption. Computer and computer peripherals still dominate demand in terms of value, followed by telecom equipment, consumer audio and video imaging devices; industrial and power and automotive electronics. Specialty markets such as medical and defense account for only 4% of consumption value worldwide.
The technical trends in linear resistors has been and will continue to be based upon manipulating the scientific maxims that govern the performance of resistors, with emphasis on their requirements in all electronic circuits, and that there is a direct correlation between the physical size of the finished resistor and its performance, insomuch as resistance is equivalent to the available surface area of the finished product. In accordance with that trend, resistor designers have been largely focused on continued miniaturization of fixed resistors down to the ultra-small case size, known as the 01005 chip.
In networks, there is the continued development of multi-chip arrays for the same purpose and the introduction of flip-chip technology for DIP and IPD networks. There is also a movement among traditional thick film resistor manufacturers to purchase new capital equipment required for the production of thin film resistors that use deposited layers of base metal- such as nickel chromium and tantalum nitride. Many customers who want the added precision of thin film, when compared to traditional thick film models are initiating this trend.
Global forecasts for growth in linear resistors are excellent for the years 2007 to 2011 due primarily to the increased content of resistors in traditional electronic devices due to the convergence of technologies in specific high growth product markets that require more ohmic content to satisfy the growing number of integrated circuits adding functionality. In wireless handsets for example, resistor content is increasing dramatically, along with capacitor and inductor content, to satisfy demand for new MP3 audio and digital video functions that are becoming standard along with camera modules.
In computers, the trend is also up with respect to resistor content because of the rapid replacement of single core with dual core microprocessors.
In consumer electronics, the movement to HDTV flat panel in the CATV markets is spurring on rapid growth in the resistor segment due to the 12 times increase in resistor content for an HDTV tuner compared to the relatively small resistor content in a traditional CRT monitor.
In automotive electronic subassemblies, the general trend is for higher temperatures under the hood, with design engineers expecting linear resistors to withstand 150 degrees Celsius, a number that is expected to increase to 175 degrees Celsius as engine performance becomes more efficient.
In power markets, the primary focus is on the small DC/DC "brick" converters, which are in fact becoming increasingly smaller (due in part to smaller passive component sizes).
There is also the overall perception in the industry that price erosion is slowing on a year over year basis due to the consolidation of resistor sales among a few major vendors in China. End-users have become reliant on a few major vendors and thus vendors are less likely to lower prices to the degree they have in the past. Thus, the combination of increased resistor content per box and the potential for a solidification of price makes resistors a positive segment for passive component vendors going forward.

"CASCAIS - THE COAST OF KINGS" Top 5 Page for this destination Cascais by LoriPori
Cascais Travel Guide: 468 reviews and 2,322 photos
A suburb of Lisbon ( 30 km west of Lisbon ) and extending along six miles of beach, Estoril and CASCAIS comprise the Portuguese Riviera.
Cascais was a small fishing village throughout early history as it lies at the mouth of the Rio Tejo and is protected from nature's elements.
In 1870 King Luis I chose to convert the 17th century "Palacio da Citadela" into his summer residence. Cascais soon became a very fashionable town and aristocratic palaces and mansions followed, thus the name "Coast of Kings".
Hans and I really enjoyed our time in Cascais, as it is a typical seaside resort with Belem, Lisbon and Sintra easily accessible, plus its restaurants boast good wine and seafood dishes and traditional Portuguese cuisine.
February, 1996
After spending two weeks in the Algarve, Hans and I were here for a few days because of its proximity to Lisbon Airport. It's a beautiful coastal town and so looking forward to being there again in May, 2009 for the Euromeet.

My visit to Cascais was very short, I took a walk to Boca do Inferno and then I walked along the sea to Estoril. Great place for a VT-meet!
Hi Lori, I've had such fun re-visiting Cascais with you as guide. D and I are going in April and the hotel I've been trying to book is the one you allocated a tip of it's own - Hotel Baia. At the moment the no availability signs are flashing but on Wednesday the reservations staff are back on duty, so fingers crossed .
I must say it did look nice and clean. The sights seem to have been kept up nicely. I think you and I both have an eye for the tilework, which looks magnificent! This would make for a relaxing vacation for sure!
There certainly are a lot of sites to see here, and I especially like forts and castles. YOu did a nice job of presenting this material, as usual.
~ Hi, Lori! It's nice to read your pages! Cascais looks like a great place to explore...><>< Thanx ><><
I enjoyed your Cascais page. Unfortunately, we drove right through Cascais on our Portugal trip, but did not have enough time to stop and sightsee. It looks like an interesting town.
Another enjoyable page of yours, Lori. Casa de Santa Maria looks very beautiful indeed. Loved esp. the tiled mural and the wooden ceiling. You have some charming pictures of other houses there too. I thought it would be hotter in Portugal.
I repeat: Your documentation skills are exemplary. Anything or anyone I ever need to find out later, is always listed on one of Lori's pages. You're awesome!
we had a great time in Cascais as you hinted. I've just posted a few tips and more to come. A Hi spot was 18/sept opening of the new casa das historias with the paula rego exhibition. low spots the aerobus and cascais sidewalks cheers david/droscar
Exactly the information I was looking for. Thanks, Lori!

Skip to comments.Gingrich Calls Obama a Christian Who Behaves Like a Muslim
Posted on 03/24/2012 10:23:47 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
Republican presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich, who was campaigning in Louisiana ahead of Saturday's primary, told reporters he believes President Barack Obama is a Christian but his behavior is causing many Americans to think he is a Muslim.
Former House Speaker Gingrich said Friday, the day before Louisiana will hold its primary, that perceptions over Obama's faith were not baseless. "It should bother the president. Why does the president behave the way that people would think that?" Gingrich said after a speech on Louisiana's Gulf Coast when reporters asked about polls indicating many Americans think Obama is a Muslim. "You have to ask why would they believe that? It's not because they're stupid. It's because they watch the kind of things I just described to you."
Public Policy Polling recently found that 52 percent of the GOP primary voters in Mississippi and 45 percent in Alabama thought Obama was a Muslim.
Gingrich referred to the Obama administration's contraceptive mandate which requires all employer-based health plans to provide free contraceptives, sterilizations, and abortion-inducing drugs for employees; and the president's apology last month over an accidental burning of the Quran in Afghanistan by U.S. troops which led to attacks on Americans stationed in that country.
Gingrich, who is a Catholic convert, clarified, "I have said publicly several times that I believe Obama is a Christian. He went to a Christian church for over 20 years. He was listening to the sermons." However, he added, "I think it is very bizarre that he is desperately concerned to apologize to Muslim religious fanatics while they are killing young Americans while at the same time going to war against the Catholic Church and against every right-to-live Protestant organization in the country. I just think it's a very strange value system."
Before he became president, Obama attended a United Church of Christ congregation in Chicago. After taking office, he has only occasionally attended churches in the Washington area.
Gingrich raised the issue several times earlier this week in Louisiana. "First, look you need to understand the elite media is in the tank for Obama. They're going to do anything that helps re-elect Obama. They're totally committed to Obama. It is just astonishing to me how pro-Obama they are," he told the Sandy Rios in the Morning radio show Thursday. "You think you're going to see two pages on Obama's Muslim friends? Or two pages on the degree to which Obama's persistently apologizing to Islam while attacking the Catholic Church? Do you see anybody in the elite media prepared to see say, 'Gee, you know this is kind of odd that we really worry a lot about the Quran and nothing about the Bible?'"
On Wednesday, Gingrich said at a stop in Pineville, "They're anti-religious unless it's Islam. This is the heart of the Obama problem, the dilemma he has." He also told Fox News, "Why is it he's more sensitive to radical Islamists who are killing young Americans than he is to the Catholic Church, to Baptists, to fundamentalists. I mean, the fact is, this is a very strange presidency."
GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum, who is leading in polls in Louisiana, also spoke Friday about Obama's pro-Muslim "bias." "You know, it's not surprising this president will go down in history here as the president who has embraced radical Islamic groups," he told the Sean Hannity radio show.
Amid doubts about his faith, Obama has reaffirmed his Christian beliefs. During a 2010 backyard discussion in New Mexico, he revealed that the "precepts of Jesus Christ" drew him to Christianity and affirmed that "we achieve salvation through the grace of God." He has also spoken about his faith during prayer breakfasts and holidays including Christmas.
Gingrich is having some "foot in the mouth" disease lately. Christians don't behave "like Muslims." A disciple of Rev. Wright is NOT a Christian, such a person is a Marxist in sheep's clothing.
I like Newt!
obama is a misguided usurper who has been living on the race card his entire life.
...empirical evidence that, though magnificent,his time has passed.
Time to choose between Rick or Mitt or you have already chosen Mitt.
It's a pun!!! Making fun of Zero! He is trying to say in the nicest of ways that Zero is a Muslim!
Barack Obama is not a Christian; that fact is beyond obvious, and I'm disappointed in Gingrich for saying that he is a Christian.
Yeah, you wish. He said exactly what he should have said. A Christian can not say another Christian is not a Christian. He can observe if he walks the talk and Newt is pointing out he does not walk the talk. Perfect tone. Unlike Mr. Foot in his mouth, Santorum.
You missed it.
I agree. He is saying if it walks and quacks like a duck you shouldn't have to be goosed to conclude it is a duck. lol!
Why, indeed?
I almost spit out my coffee when I saw the headline. It is genius! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
Newt just made the point that we already knew. Obama's upbringing and present-day actions all speak reality. We knew all this BEFORE he was elected.
And he still got elected.
He is, of course, neither. Obama is a good, articulate little puppet, who puts his personal anti-colonial and Communist beliefs aside to focus on mollifying the Left while consistently doing the bidding of his benefactors: George Soros, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, and JP Morgan. :)
So, if a sheep is a ram and a donkey an a$$, then why is a ram in the a$$ a goose?
I dunno. . .
If the idiot Republican establishment does not choose Newt, we need to encourage him to go on a perpetual speaking tour. American voters need to be educated in the obvious.
LOL! I loved dressing up paper dolls.
He behaves like a secularist who sees a political advantage in calling himself christian.
I don't think Obama ever was a Chistian.
He is Muslim through and through.
"A Christian can not say another Christian is not a Christian."
Aren't individuals known by their deeds.
Isn't that (Obama is not a Christian) exactly what Gingrich is saying of Obama?
Oh, I get it now. To the Newties, their guy can't say or do any wrong like Kings of old.
You're missing the point. Newt knows better than to claim outright that Bozo is a Muslim, the MSM would be all over it. However, he can point out that Bozo's behavior towards Muslims and Christians is decidedly in favor of Muslims because it is true and a matter of record and the MSM can't deny it. Thus his "Christian but acts Muslim" statement and then points out all the pro muslim and anti Christian things Bozo has done.
actualy, he is a muslim who behaves like a marxist
Gingrich thinks Obama is against abortion, and not pro-homosexual, etc.?
Yes, Chritians are known by their deeds. Which is exactly what Newt said. Obammy is a "Christian" who acts like a Muslim; which is why so many suspect that he is a Muslim. Perfect tone; knee capping the Left.
if it walk like a duck, etc.
What might make him President of the Confederacy or Prime Minister of New France or King of Louisiana won't help him much to win the November election in this reality.
".........while consistently doing the bidding of his benefactors: George Soros, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, JP Morgan and the Saudi/Wahab cabal.
I took the liberty of adding one more group to your list. I think Zero committed a faux pas by bowing to the Saudi king...his muslim master, letting the cat out of the bag; and then tried to cover it over by bowing to everyone else but the janitor on subsequent visits to other venues. IMHO
If so, then Newt should have said "Obama says he's a Christian but acts like a Muslim" which is vastly different from what he actually said.
Barack Obama is not a Christian; that fact is beyond obvious, and I'm disappointed in Gingrich for saying that he is a Christian.
Brilliant statement, considering what Wright was preaching. Remember, Obama said he never listened to the sermons?
You mean Vesty has foot and mouth disease. Newt is right on...there are catholics who dont view other faiths as christian and vice versa.
"On Wednesday, Gingrich said at a stop in Pineville, "They're anti-religious unless it's Islam. This is the heart of the Obama problem, the dilemma he has." He also told Fox News, "Why is it he's more sensitive to radical Islamists who are killing young Americans than he is to the Catholic Church, to Baptists, to fundamentalists. I mean, the fact is, this is a very strange presidency."
Amen Newt!
Vesty is a pious little fraud that endoses pro choice candidates and voted for pro choice judges. I am beginning to question whether he is a true christian
Twisted logic don't ya know. That Santorum is now considered a "fraud" because he voted for a Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee who in turn insured Justice Alito's nomination, and of course Sotomayor was nominated to the bench by Bush pere and she swore that the constitution meant what it said and voted to uphold a partial birth abortion ban while being a federal district judge and all the recent polls show that the "hard" conservatives are voting overwhelmingly for Santorum, Nice try from guys trying to defend the electability of a guy who calls for establishing permanent lunar base colonies in eight years, pie-in-the-sky-chicken-in-every-pot $2.50 gas/gallon in two years, and is finishing either third or dead last in the recent primary contests.
Can't remember the exact words.
0bamao stated he would stand by the muslims before anyone else.
That says it all.
"Goose"? Now, it's a gender identity.
Unlike Mr. Foot in his mouth, Santorum.
Thankfully most people don't take what he says literally and knows what he means. He will win Louisiana today THANK GOD! Poor Newt might make 3rd place and beat Paul, but that is not for sure. He sure is racking up last place finishes across America. I feel sorry for Newt....absolutely zero voters, but still thinks he can get the nomination. He is a dreamer that is for sure.
and Spector who voted against Bork and voted for Obamacare and RS voted for a 9th circuit judge that is profoundly liberal and ROMNEY who introduced socialized medicine to the USA...NOT to mention Sonia ...even McCain voted NAY. Rush was warning against voting for Sonia and claimed it would open the door to her nomination for a position on the supreme court. Yes, Sanctimonious voted for quite a few pro choicers.
IF not for Spector casting the 60th vote..we would not have Obamacare..thanks Vesty
"Obama has reaffirmed his Christian beliefs. During a 2010 backyard discussion in New Mexico, he revealed that the "precepts of Jesus Christ" drew him to Christianity and affirmed that "we achieve salvation through the grace of God."
"achieve salvation"? Huh? I think you RECEIVE salvation.
Ephesians 2:"8........it is the gift of God 9 not by works, so that no one can boast
"precepts of Jesus Christ" What an odd thing to say. Not exactly "Christian Speak". Something a liberal academic would say. but wait....
Santorum always comprimises his religious convictions to vote pro choice. He can't blame this one on the "team"
. In 1997, she was nominated by President Bill Clinton to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Her nomination was slowed by the Republican majority in the Senate, but she was eventually confirmed in 1998. On the Second Circuit, Sotomayor heard appeals in more than 3,000 cases and wrote about 380 opinions. Sotomayor has taught at the New York University School of Law and Columbia Law School.
The "team" voted against her
It's the perfect religion for him. A Phony religion for a Phony man.
It is phony because it was completely MADE UP by Muhammad. A very despicable person. An illiterate rapist, pedophile, murderer, thief, genocidal maniac. Not calling names, this is fact. The perfect religion for Obama.
Paez, 9th circuit liberal that Santorum voted for "Following March 9, 1994, nomination by President Bill Clinton, confirmation by the United States Senate on June 15, 1994, and reception of commission on June 16, 1994, Paez became the second Mexican American to sit on the bench of the United States District Court for the Central District of California, a district that covers Los Angeles.[2]
Paez was confirmed by Senate on March 9, 2000, by a 59-39 vote, more than four years after President Clinton first nominated him to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Paez waited 1,506 days to be confirmed, which at that time was the longest wait for a vote by any judicial nominee in U.S. history.In a 2009 decision, he held that a San Francisco resolution urging the Vatican to withdraw a directive against same-sex adoptions does not violate the Establishment Clause. [3] In a 2011 decision, he issued the majority opinion upholding a lower court's blocking of the most controversial parts of the Arizona SB 1070 anti-illegal immigration law from taking effect Santorum is a pious little fraud! There isn't much difference between Romney and Santorum
Does anyone seriously think that Obama really understands what a follower of Christ is or should be? First, it means humbling oneself and acknowledging Jesus as the Son of God, and the Redeemer of mankind. Secondly, it also means that we are all sinners and must daily strive to be more Christ-like, i.e. behave with all the Christian attributes that are proclaimed in the New Testament.
Obama does not appear to have a single iota of humility in him. He lies like a rug, and he is in a battle against God-fearing people in the USA and in the world. He says nothing in response to the anti-Semitic events happening daily in the world, and he seems to be oblivious to the plight of Christians in the Middle East. Of course, since he himself is guilty of persecuting Christians in the USA, perhaps he cannot recognize anti-Christian bigotry elsewhere. It is a truism that people cannot see the planks in their own eyes.
'He said exactly what he should have said'
Gingrich is way above the crowd. He is NOT politically correct, but he can point you in the right direction if you catch his underlying messages. It is no use arguing with the messiah who insists he is a 'Christian', or arguing with his obots who believe everything he says. So Gingrich simply points out the 'weird' anti-christian things the 'messiah' christian does despite his supposedly 'christian faith' and the pro-muslim things the supposedly not-muslim obozo does. You will be the judge - is obozo 'Christian' as he says he is or is obozo a 'muslim' as he acts like one?
We all know the answer!
Don't be offended that Gingrich says obozo is a christian. He is just pulling everyone's legs.

About Me
Experience Canada
I think the greatest ability humans have is our ability to be curious. Curiosity is the key to everything. The key to discover different cultures, to wonder what else is out there. It is the reason why we open the door of our house and move on... I hope I will never stop being curious.
Some time ago I did some random questionaire about my personality. In the end, I actually liked one of the description they provided for me. It said that I am attracted by strange things. That might be about right!
nothing is more important than curiosity
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I tried to host couchsurfer in Melle, Germany, in my little hometown where I used to live with my parents. during my last year in Germany, before moving to Canada, I finally had my first guests and it was a very nice experience! :)
At the moment, I live in Canada. I will move soon within Hamilton and I will have to see if I will be able to host people at my new place...
I was in Bolivia and met some people which I have got to know through couchsurfing. That were very nice meetings, the special experience was to learn more about the country, politics and traditions. It is important to get in touch with locals and cs is a nice way to make this possible!
Also, I couchsurfed in Hamilton, Canada, and this is the result - I will stay for about four more years. The family I stayed with, they are just amazing and I am deeply thankful that I got to know them.
I like to travel, meet and talk to people. It is an exciting feeling to be in a city on your own, you discover so much more if it is just you and the surrounding.
At the same time, I like to be at home. Spending time with my horses is one of my greatest pleasures. To be outside in the forest, to breeze fresh air and to listen to the silence.
I also spend a lot of time running. From time to time, I do long distance races, I like the challenge and it's an amazing feeling just running for some hours, having time to just be with yourself and your thoughts. running for me is a kind of meditation, I guess. it's a good contrast to my daily work inside a lab.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like indie, alternative rock. radiohead is the band I never get tired listening to. I especially like sharing music. making other people listen to songs that touch my soul is really amazing!
One Amazing Thing I've Done
the best travel I've done in my life was to bolivia. it is such an authentic place.. and if you see Uyuni, the salt desert, it feels like being on a different planet.
Teach, Learn, Share
Not too long ago, I bought a guitar and I practice playing on my own. it's not too successful so far, I am missing time to practice. but I am always looking for a teacher! so, anyone who would like to show me something on a guitar is welcome :)

1.Human resource management: Sense of estrangement felt by employees, reflected in their lack of warmth towards the organization and in believing that their job/work is not meaningful to other aspects of their lives. Alienation is caused commonly by factors such as a lack of involvement in even basic decision making, lack of human contact, little hope for betterment, and a feeling of powerlessness.
2.Law: Voluntary, complete, and without-reserve conveyance, sale, or transfer of an asset or property from one party to another. In a loan agreement or insurance policy, a borrower's or insured's right of alienation is usually restricted by inclusion of alienation clause.

I did suffer alienation as my IQ was so high I could not relate to my fellow colleagues and coworkers.
Mary Anne grew more and more disillusioned with her job every day, and her growing feelings of alienation caused her to shy away from everyone, even those she used to consider friends.
Alienation of coworkers will only result in a cycle of negative morale and decreased productivity; employers should work to ensure that all of their employees are being included by their peers.

"On the Turquoise Trail" Top 5 Page for this destination Madrid by toonsarah
Madrid Travel Guide: 25 reviews and 66 photos
Nearly every one of the old houses lining the town?s main street seems to be a gallery, and the few that aren?t are restaurants. We spent a very pleasant few hours here, dipping in and out of the shops, enjoying a pleasant lunch (and a great coffee), and taking lots of photos.
Madrid (pronounced with the stress on the first syllable, MAD-rid) was once a coal-mining town and was founded in 1869. In its heyday the town supplied coal for the Santa Fe Railroad, local customers and even the US Government. But when coal use declined the town fell silent and became a ghost town. In the early 1970's, artists and craftspeople began to discover it, converting the old company stores and houses into shops and galleries. Today it is the main destination on the scenic byway known as the Turquoise Trail.
Anyone driving between Albuquerque has a choice of three possible routes. The quickest is the Interstate (I25), and the slowest the long loop via Jemez and Los Alamos on Highways 550 and 4, but we chose this pretty scenic byway, the Turquoise Trail. Named for the former turquoise mines in the region, this road (Highway 14) takes you through a series of one-time boom mining towns which, with the exception of Madrid, are for the most part now very small and sleepy.
Other stops along the way are sleepy Los Cerrillos, with its ramshackle bar and ?antique? shop and attractive church, and somnolent Golden.
So to continue with us on our road trip through New Mexico, please visit my Los Cerrillos page

Another fascinating page about your adventures in New Mexico. I didn't know that besides the Spanish capital there is another town called Madrid in the world. Good to read that it is pronounced differently.
For a ghost town this does indeed look quite lively. I think I would have gone to the coalmining museum, because ever since I read Zola?s Germinal I have been fascinated (and horrified) by the way they used to get coal out of the ground.
I think I would love this little "Ghost" town especially its "artiness" as you call it. Love Indian crafts.
Turquoise Trail, what a beautiful name! Haha, I am wondering if they'll think over the pronounciation when they come to the original :-) That sounds like a marvellous caf� and I know exactly what you mean with the coloured water, especially now that I am faced with "coffee making issues" in my own life.... They all must have dug the ground to find these marvellous ghost accessoires, and I love the mailboxes :-))

This week's Patriots Mailbag includes a nice mix of topics, with one common thread: How can the team get better? Several scenarios are explored, covering free agency, the draft and trade possibilities.
Although it's been a month since the Patriots' season ended, expect to see some stories popping up this week, as cornerback Devin McCourty will be at the Patriots Hall of Fame on Tuesday night (Feb. 15) as part of the Speaker Series, while kicker Stephen Gostkowski is making an appearance at a local hospital on Wednesday (Feb. 16).
Until then, let's get to the questions...
Q. Do you think that we are well stocked for the future at the wide receiver position? How much can we expect from Taylor Price? I know he is talented, but does he have the potential to be a replacement for Randy Moss? -- Allan (New Haven)
A. Allan, I don't see Price as a speed guy in the Moss-type mold. He reminds me more of a David Givens style of receiver -- physical and fast, but not necessarily a straight-line burner. When I think of players who would be most affected by a potential lockout, he's one of the top ones on the list because I think another full offseason in the system is crucial for his development. As for if the Patriots are well stocked at receiver, I think they are. I do wonder if they have too much of the same type of receiver.
Q. Hello Mike, do you see the Pats trying to get a deeper threat at WR just to boost the aerial assault down the field? I'm not even really sure who the potential free agents are. -- Bryan D. (Fort Wayne, Ind.)
A. Bryan, I don't see it being as high of a priority as other areas, such as the offensive line, defensive line and pass rush, so I see any possible addition would be based on the opportunity available. If a top talent becomes available, maybe it moves them in that direction. As for possible free agents, student assistant Mike Rodak put together an informative capsule detailing the position and some of the options.
Q. It seems there is a good chance Steve Smith is available from Carolina. I would think the Patriots should go after him and not worry about Price/Tate developing since you would have a Pro Bowl receiver instead. Your thoughts? -- John (Fort Myers, Fla.)
A. John, if Smith is available, I'd strongly consider it even though I don't view it as a top need. I think Smith is a top competitor who could thrive with Tom Brady throwing him the ball. A big question would be the cost to acquire him, but the possibility is intriguing.
Q. What moves, if any, do you see the Patriots making in free agency? Also, could you see the Patriots trading up in the draft to get an elite pass rusher like Robert Quinn or Von Miller? -- Chris (Worcester)
A. Chris, the moves I envision the Patriots making in free agency are complementary, not huge splashes. A position like running back stands out to me. Players like Pierre Thomas (Saints) or Ricky Williams (Dolphins) are those I could see being targets to team up with BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Danny Woodhead. As for a possible trade-up for Quinn or Miller, it looks like Miller could be a top-five pick (Buffalo maybe), so I don't see that. If Quinn is there in the 12 range, maybe the Patriots consider it if he checks out, but I still see it as a longer shot.
Q. Pat Williams is going to be a free agent, and the Vikes may not try to keep him around. Could you see the Pats bringing him in and moving Vince to DE (ala Haloti Ngata)? -- Ryan (Baton Rouge, La.)
A. Ryan, a player like Williams could potentially fill a Ted Washington-type 2003-style role as a first- and second-down run-stopper at nose tackle, although Dan Pompei's Sunday piece on the National Football Post website caught the eye this week. Pompei writes, "Scouts tell me Williams' play declined significantly in 2009, and that he no longer has the quickness that made him special. His strength is still there though, and it's difficult to find big bodies like him."
Q. What are the chances that the Pats would draft quarterback Jake Locker in the second round if he's available? He doesn't have good accuracy, but Bill Belichick can fix anything. If they can get all the other stuff, why not take a chance? -- Samuel (Hockenheim, Germany)
A. Samuel, I'd be surprised if the Patriots went that route with their high second-rounder (33rd overall). Maybe it would come into play more with the late second-rounder, but, even then, I think it's a stretch because they have Tom Brady (signed through 2014) and a promising backup in Brian Hoyer. One of the things I've heard Bill Belichick say over the years is that the two most important characteristics for a
quarterback are accuracy and decision-making. If those aren't checking out, I think it's going to be tough for the Patriots to take that plunge.
Q. Hey Mike, I think Logan Mankins is one of the top five guards in the game, but I don't understand how he can be upset with the franchise tag and making those comments publicly. I think he is a great player and I hope he is a Patriot for a long time to come, but with all that's going on why doesn't he just relax and see what happens after the CBA is addressed instead of stirring the pot already? He knows no matter where he lands he will be one of the top paid at his position. -- Mike (Boston)
A. Mike, the biggest thing for players in Mankins' situation is long-term security and I can't blame him for trying to maximize his earnings given the short span of players' careers. Mankins is the type of player who is going to speak his mind and I think that's what we're seeing. Some players can keep it buttoned up even when they might be privately frustrated -- quarterback Tom Brady strikes me as that type of guy -- but Mankins handles it differently. I can respect that because one approach doesn't suit all. No matter what happens -- franchise tag or long-term deal -- Mankins knows he's assured of at least $10 million. That's a good start in my mind.
Q. Mike, you have talked about the Patriots extending Logan Mankins a six-year deal for $8 million per year. While I would like to have Mankins back, I am worried about the message this would send. Last year, Vince Wilfork did the right thing and was rewarded with a new contract. To give Mankins, a less valuable player than Wilfork, a larger contract extension after he held out for half a year is a bad idea. The problem with having half your roster being first- or second-year players is that they will all be up for new deals around the same time. With all the Patriots' young stars, I think they have to handle this situation very carefully. Thoughts? -- Drew (Fort Lauderdale)
A. Drew, there might be something to this from a management perspective when one considers precedent. But I think so much changes from year to year, each situation has its own dynamic, and I'd argue that the Patriots already made their point with Mankins by not budging last year. So my stance is that now the focus should be on striking an extension and letting bygones be bygones.
Q. Can you judge how good a strength and conditioning coach, and his program is, by how many injuries a team has that year? In other words, if a team has a high number of (key) players hurt with bad injuries, does that mean the coach or his program are no good? -- Joe (New Milford, Conn.)
A. Joe, I think it's a factor, but there is more to it than just that. A lot depends on the injury and how it happened. For example, a high number of pulled muscles might point toward a negative in the strength program. But on the flip side, a broken bone or blown-out knee is something that might have happened to anyone, regardless of the strength program. I'd use Tom Brady's knee injury from 2008 as another example. Just because Brady was injured, I didn't think that reflected anything on the team's strength program.
Q. With all the coaching staff movement, what is the status if Pepper Johnson? -- Jonathan Y. (Buel's Gore, Vt.)
A. Jonathan, the Patriots have not revealed their full coaching staff. At this time, the assumption is that Johnson will return as defensive line coach.
Q. I was bitterly disappointed after that horrible playoff loss to the Jets. That being said, I think they had perfect personnel to defend us and do not expect them to be as tough defensively next year. I still believe in Belichick and Brady and feel that a draft to upgrade the offensive line and pass rush would put us in great shape to run away with the division. Am I too confident? -- Jim (Greenville, S.C.)
A. Jim, I don't think you're too confident. The Patriots have won eight of the last 11 AFC East
championships. They still have a talented roster with a solid coaching staff.
Q. Hello Mike, as for the Pats, I understand and agree with many of the issues that people have had the last few years however I think people are overlooking a few things. 1) The amount of overhaul Bill Belichick has done on the fly; 2) The sustained success they have had while doing so. Going back to 2008 I think Bill saw the need to start rebuilding with Jerod Mayo before Tedy Bruschi was gone. Then picking Patrick Chung for Rodney Harrison. I suspect we'll see someone like Muhammed Wilkerson or Cam Jordan to replace Richard Seymour this year, but the point is Bill is rebuilding for the future, and still maintained a record of 35-13 while doing it! Am I the only one impressed by the position he has the team in? -- Jeff M. (Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif.)
A. Jeff, I don't think you are alone. When I talk to people around the NFL, this thought is echoed. Belichick's ability to have the Patriots remain competitive year in and year out -- and not be a window-of-opportunity team -- is widely respected.
Q. Hey Mike I have a theoretical question for you. Do you think the Patriots would still make the Richard Seymour trade knowing that the first-round pick is number 17 and one of their biggest needs is DE? -- CJ (Milton)
A. CJ, knowing what they know now, my sense is that the Patriots would have held off on the deal, tried to extend Vince Wilfork earlier, and then maybe used the franchise tag on Seymour in 2010 (instead of Wilfork). I think part of the reason they traded Seymour is that they envisioned him as a one-and-done player -- likely to sign elsewhere in 2010 -- so they figured they'd get something for him while they could.
Q. Mike, would you please try to give an update on Mike Wright's health? -- Bill (Mooresville, N.C.)
A. Bill, I reached out to some people close to Wright last week and have yet to make the connection. I will keep working at it. Thanks.
Q. Mike, I hate to even think about the business side of this looming lockout, but do you think that the owners are "really" pushing this 18-game schedule on us? It seems wildly unpopular to everyone, including the fans. I wonder if they keep building it up, but are prepared for it to be a "major" concession in the labor negotiations. Do you think there is anything to that? -- Bernie P. (Raleigh, N.C.)
A. Bernie, I think that would be a pleasant surprise, but I don't see it headed in that direction. I think owners are set on the 18 games and the main reason is that it's the primary vehicle for them to grow revenue -- offer more product, get more money in return on those TV contracts.
Q. In every sport except the NFL, if a guy gets hurt, he can be DL'd and come back later when he heals. In the NFL, once he's placed on the IR, he's done for the season. With a new 18-game schedule, that's a lot of time for a guy to recover. Wouldn't it make more sense to let a player come back once he's healthy? What's so different about the NFL? -- Peter (Ashland, Va.)
A. Peter, that is one area owners are discussing, the possibility of a six-game injured reserve, or something like that. It would probably be the type of thing where teams could only have one or two players on that list at a time.
Q. After reading through last week's mailbag, I don't agree with the flak that Robert Kraft was getting for his comments. He is the owner, shouldn't he have the right to comment about his team? I think he pales in comparison with owners like Mark Cuban or Jerry Jones. Your thoughts? -- Nate A. (Wildomar, Calif.)
A. Nate, a few others wrote in with the same thoughts, the idea that Kraft is the owner and he can do what he wants. I view it as a fine line. An owner can obviously say whatever he or she wants, but considering how that potentially impacts the team, or its top coaches and players, is important too.
Q. A point of emphasis for the Pats in 2010 seemed to be a return to "The Patriot Way" in the locker room. Although the players could be locked out by owners, do you envision any divide among players -- specifically the Patriots -- as labor tensions build in the coming months? -- Cathleen V. (Moose Jaw, SK)
A. Cathleen, I don't see the labor situation causing any divide in the Patriots' locker room. From a league perspective, we've seen Jets cornerback Antonio Cromartie speak out against the union, but I liked how NFL Players Association president Kevin Mawae explained it at the Super Bowl. He said it's just like a family and you're going to have some fights within the family, but in the end you're still in it together. I think it's going to be harder for the players to stay together if this drags out because not all are financially secure. If we get to that point, then I think we could see some tensions building.
Q. This past year, we had a lot of youth on defense. After having another year of experience under their belt, how good can we expect this Patriots defense to be in 2011? -- Mike (Boston)
A. Mike, that was one of the overriding themes I heard from analysts at the Super Bowl when it came to the Patriots. They kept saying how the defense is young and still developing. With Vince Wilfork, Jerod Mayo and Devin McCourty to build around -- and I might even put Patrick Chung in that category -- I only see them getting better. The Patriots ranked eighth in the NFL for fewest points allowed last season, so it wasn't all bad.
Q. Hey Mike, I know there will be a draft this year, but if the new collective bargaining agreement isn't in place, do the rookies have to wait until the new CBA is done before any contracts can be done? Would a rookie wage scale be for this year's rookies or are they going to get mega-deals? -- Mike (Hull)
A. Mike, those rookies would have to wait because teams wouldn't know the rules they are operating under. It puts those rookies in an uncertain situation.
Q. What are the chances Randy Moss signs with the Patriots? -- Keith (Iron River, Mich.)
A. Keith, I've thought in the past that if Moss takes the 2007-type approach, it has a slight chance of happening. But I think it would be a longer shot. I'd estimate 10 percent.
Q. Mike, dare to give a Larry Fitzgerald-to-NE scenario another thought? The Cardinals need to rebuild and lack a competent QB, so getting rid of Fitzgerald while they can redeem a few picks seems to be a no-brainer. Plus, the Pats have the picks/cap space and a need for a home-run WR. I know they address needs more through draft than free agency, but LF is only 27 with incredible upside. Is this really too crazy to unfold? -- Ian M. (NYC)
A. I think it's too crazy, Ian. Fitzgerald is one of their best players, if not the best, and I just don't see them giving him away. If you're a Cardinals fan, Fitzgerald is one of the few players you can get really excited about right now. Trade him away and I think it's a bad business decision for them, not to mention a bad football decision.

I have a windows 7 Professional Laptop that has had the entire drive encrypted so as to require a password to allow it to boot up.
There is only one partition on the drive that takes up the entire drive and its an NTFS one for Windows 7.
Can anyone suggest a good method that will allow me to install Ubuntu Linux on the system as well without disrupting Truecrypt and Windows???
Or am I to assume the easiest method is to unencrypt the drive so its just windows again, install ubuntu, then encrypt the drive?

Salma Hayek discusses life as a homemaker. But how much of one is she?
M Thomas: People's lack of self awareness is quite stunning. One of the most common and completely I'll founded complaints I have heard about progressives is that we are "divisive". Obama has been the most "divisive" president ever. Hilary is so "divisive". Here's the deal. I talk politics all the time. With friends, family, acquaintances, people in bars etc. and when I'm not talking, I'm frequently online, getting in virtual conversations. There are of course common threads. Both sides obviously very much hate the other side, but Trump supporters regularly use language about Clinton and Obama that you virtually never hear from the other side. Progressives are extremely scared of Trump, but they typically prefer to talk about why Hilary would make a good president or SPECIFICALLY why Trump is not qualified. Trump supporters just use all kinds of hate speech. So which side is the divisive one again?

Extreme tidal events are one of the most predictable natural disturbances in marine benthic habitats and are important determinants of zonation patterns in intertidal benthic communities. On coral reefs, spring low tides are recurrent disturbances, but are rarely reported to cause mass mortality. However, in years when extremely low tides coincide with high noon irradiances, they have the potential to cause widespread damage. Here, we report on such an event on a fringing coral reef in the central Great Barrier Reef (Australia) in September 2005. Visual surveys of colony mortality and bleaching status of more than 13,000 corals at 14 reef sites indicated that most coral taxa at wave-protected sites were severely affected by the event. Between 40 and 75% of colonies in the major coral taxa (Acropora, Porites, Faviidae, Mussidae and Pocilloporidae) were either bleached or suffered partial mortality. In contrast, corals at wave-exposed sites were largely unaffected (<1% of the corals were bleached), as periodic washing by waves prevented desiccation. Surveys along a 1–9 m depth gradient indicated that high coral mortality was confined to the tidal zone. However, 20–30% of faviid colonies were bleached throughout the depth range, suggesting that the increase in benthic irradiances during extreme low tides caused light stress in deeper water. Analyses of an 8-year dataset of tidal records for the area indicated that the combination of extended periods of aerial exposure and high irradiances occurs during May–September in most years, but that the event in September 2005 was the most severe. We argue that extreme low-tide, high-irradiance events are important structuring forces of intertidal coral reef communities, and can be as damaging as thermal stress events. Importantly, they occur at a time of year when risks from thermal stress, cyclones and monsoon-associated river run-off are minimal.

Value for money productThis a great wheel and very much worth the money. I did a lot of research on it before buying, after taking into consideration its pros and cons. There aren't many flaws in the wheel. The build quality is good and the suction cups work well on the table. The wheel size was said to be small in many reviews but i felt the size was suitable for normal game play. However the wheel's rotation degree could have been more. You can only turn it till 90 degrees left and right. Also the pedals could have been a little bigger. Overall its a very good choice for people who want to experience racing games … (Expand)

A very good "Community" this week. Worked for me a lot more than "Remedial Chaos Theory."
"Community" 3×5: "Horror Fiction in Seven Spooky Steps"
Month: October 2011
Not good at all.
Click here for the review.
Really fun, inventive episode.
"Community" 3×4: "Remedial Chaos Theory"
Another phenomenal season. This is the best show I've ever had the privilege of reviewing weekly.
"Breaking Bad" 4×13: "Face Off"
Very strong political story. It feels wrong to call it a "thriller," though I know it's being advertised as such. But there are no car chases or men with black hats. It's just a bunch of guys fighting for power.
Click here for the review.
Pretty bad. The AMC Studio 30 on Dunvale had typically crappy presentation, too, with the image spreading well past the top and sides of the screen. I complained twice to no avail. The manager gave me a free pass, but I won't be using it because I only go to that theater when required to do so for screenings. I didn't like sitting through a movie I couldn't see that well, but I took comfort in the fact that the movie was so bad that I (sadly) wasn't missing much.

Great table-setter with some awesome suspense. It's been a predictably strong season. Looking forward to the finale.

This quote gets dragged out every time your manager announces a new policy, restructure or redundancy programme. It's no good digging your head in the sand change is inevitable. Every leader today needs to manage change effectively as part of their job. Understanding how people respond to change is a critical aspect of this.
What are the things you need to know about people and change? Firstly, different people react differently to change. Some people relish change and get bored with the status quo. Others prefer more stability. Problems arise when the individual's preferences differ from the situation they find themselves in. So if a stability oriented person finds circumstances are changing or a change lover finds that everything stays the same.
Typical reactions may be stress, negativity or resistance to the change. The best response from the manager is to explain the reasoning behind the change ' put the change in context ' and be patient. In times of extreme change managers might want to identify opportunities to pair up change lovers with more stable oriented folk to jolly them through the tough times.
Secondly, people's needs have to be met through an inclusive change process. A famous psychologist Will Shutz identified three needs people have which are relevant to change:
The need for control
The need for inclusion
The need for openness
This means that in any change process there has to be something the individual can control, they need to be included in the process of shaping the change and they need to feel their managers are being as open as they can cheap nba jerseys china about the change.
Thirdly, during periods of change people can often experience a feeling of loss and it might take time for them to adjust to new circumstances. It might be useful to consider the following model which is used to counsel people in helping them come to terms with loss:
Some people may move through these stages very quickly, arriving at the acceptance stage within days of an announcement of change. For others, it may take months to accept the new set up. For the manager, provide opportunities for individuals to share their concerns and learn to be wholesale nhl jerseys patient as employees take time to work through the change for themselves. But remember, acceptance does not necessarily mean loving or agreeing with the change.
Finally, enforced change, such as an office move, can lead to raised expectations. With the office move, individuals may see an opportunity for a bright, new shiny office with lots of space. Manage expectations carefully through change, otherwise people are bound to be disappointed. If expectations are not met, people cheap jerseys are unhappy. If expectations are exceeded, they are happy. Manage expectations down.
Understanding how people wholesale jerseys outlet respond to change will inform the manager how to plan and manage the inevitable change which all organizations experience. Based on this understanding managers need to:Articles Connexes:
