Wyclef Jean is due to appear at a rally for immigrant workers' rights in New
York tomorrow. The event marks the end of a cross-country bus trip made by
more than 900 self-proclaimed "freedom riders" who have travelled 20,000
"out-of-date, out-of-touch" immigration policies. Jean will offer his
support for the campaign alongside Mexican rockers Bronco, Congressman John
Lewis, Cardinal Edward Egan and Maria Elena Durazo, national chairperson of
the Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride.

Many people know about Hawaii's volcanic crater, Diamond Head, but very few are aware of the crater's colorful past. After Diamond Head burst from the shore of Oahu in a series of steam explosions, the crater sat silent for hundreds of thousands of years before becoming a backdrop to some of the most famous moments in Hawaii's history. Author Denby Fawcett's definitive book breathes life into the iconic landmark, which some geologists consider the most perfect example of a volcanic tuff cone in the world. Secrets of Diamond Head traces the life of the crater from its birth to its use by hikers and the military today.
The book includes a complete trail guide as well as information on the ancient Hawaiians who erected five religious temples on the slopes of the crater known as Leahi. The modern history of the volcanic cone is just as fascinating, featuring everything from rock concerts to a continuing battle between community activists fighting to preserve the crater's wild beauty and developers wanting to commercialize its open spaces. After reading Secrets of Diamond Head, you will never look at this geologic wonder in the same way.
This product has been approved by the State of Hawaii and is part of the official merchandise offered by Pacific Historic Parks at the new Diamond Head Visitor Center. Proceeds from sales helps the educational and preservation efforts for thispatchmagnet Park.

Corizon Health is the nation's proven leader in quality correctional healthcare solutions. As industry pioneers, we set the standard — and we continue to discover new and even better ways to provide exemplary service to our partners and exceptional care to our patients every day.
Correctional nursing provides a rewarding career in an emerging specialized field that encompasses ambulatory care, health education, urgent care, infirmary care and specialty and chronic care clinics. Every Corizon Health nurse has an opportunity to make a difference whether they are or are not practicing in a corrections facility.
Corizon Health understands the vital role nursing plays in the correctional healthcare setting. Nurses are the eyes and ears of the program providing care around the clock on a daily basis. It is imperative that each nurse is properly selected, trained (initially and continually), and provided supervision and leadership during their daily activities.
Our Nursing Department works with other Corizon Health departments to ensure sufficient and qualified nursing staff is in place to deliver services in each our contracted facilities. We believe the process of ensuring our nurses' qualifications begins at the time of recruitment and interviews. Efforts are made at hire to provide sufficient information about correctional nursing to ensure the candidate fully understands the working environment in which they will be working and that they have the proper credentials and clinical experience to be successful within our organization. We are fully aware that ineffective hiring practices result in increased turnover of nursing staff, which affects the performance of the clinical program at the involved facility.
The Corizon Health nurse training program begins with the on-boarding process. The program focuses on the core competencies and skills necessary for success as a correctional nurse. Through our New Employee Orientation II (NEO II) program, nurses are presented important information regarding their role in the correctional healthcare program and how to be successful in their new role.
To ensure each member of our nursing staff has the basic competencies required in a corrections environment, twelve (12) core competencies have been identified by our nursing leadership. As a result, skills verification forms were developed by Clinical Education and Training. Annually, each RN or LPN must physically demonstrate his or her ability to appropriately carry out each of the twelve competencies and have that demonstration verified in writing by a subject matter expert (DON or designee). This documentation is maintained in the employee's training file and is sent to Corizon's Senior Manager, Clinical Education and Training for centralized tracking.
In addition to initial orientation, each nurse is provided ongoing educational opportunities through a program planned and coordinated between the Corizon Health Nursing and Training Departments.
Training is developed based on the current body of nursing knowledge and information gathered through our Quality Improvement and Sentinel Event Programs. Corizon Health believes it is imperative that nursing leadership at each of our contracted sites be aware of nurse performance and clinical decision-making based on a review of their work through our Quality Improvement Program. This review quickly identifies performance needs as well as areas of best practice that can be shared with others at the facility.
Monthly continuing education materials are mandatory and provided for each nurse with topics focused on clinical issues commonly encountered in their daily work activities and those areas where focus is needed. Corizon Health's Clinical Education Council is accredited by the California Board of Nursing as an Approved Provider of Nursing Continuing Education programs.
On-site nurse managers receive training materials that can be used in daily encounters with staff through planned training sessions or as a part of staff meetings. These materials focus on emergency response situations and patient safety topics. Each nurse is also required to complete annual training on topics such as suicide prevention, employee safety, medication administration, narcotic control, infection control, HIPAA and corporate compliance and ethics.
Corizon Health's comprehensive monthly continuing education program allows nursing and practitioner staff to accrue CE contact hours toward re-licensing requirements at no charge. All Corizon Health staff are able to use the program to accrue training hours for accreditation requirements with no out-of-pocket expense.
The program is tracked at the corporate level to verify participation.
Corizon Health is an enthusiastic supporter of the Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH). PCMH is an innovative, practitioner-led, team-based model of primary care delivery designed to improve patient satisfaction and health outcomes. Corizon Health has particular strength in many areas emphasized by PCMH:
Corizon Health has established industry standards in practitioner orientation and training. Our Practitioner/Dentist On-boarding Program is specific to a number of leadership positions as well as full-time and part-time positions. Corizon Health's on-boarding program goals are in accordance with the mission of the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Innovation:
Through the Practitioner On-boarding Program, Corizon Health aspires to develop staff into advocates for Correctional Medicine. Everyone becomes a mentor - but the practitioner cannot become a mentor until she or he has been a mentored. As part of our on-boarding program, we have a 3-stage program to provide training and education of our practitioners to assure their best opportunity for success at the facility.
Correctional dentistry provides the supportive work environment that lets you "just be a dentist."
Behavioral Health in the correctional environment offers a fulfilling, rewarding career path for psychiatrists, psychologists, and behavioral health professionals. With advances in technology and integrated healthcare models, correctional behavioral healthcare has evolved into what many say is a sophisticated practice with remarkable advantages for the practitioner.
The Corizon Behavioral Health Clinical Education Council (BHCEC) facilitates the development of all Corizon Health behavioral healthcare staff through quality clinical education programs with a corrections-based focus. The BHCEC offers an innovative annual curriculum to update employee's skills, keep them abreast of new findings in the field of behavioral health, and assist with re-licensure requirements.
The Corizon BHCEC works in partnership with the sites to identify the specific behavioral health education and training needs for correctional behavioral health staff. As a rule, information is reviewed during the fourth quarter of the year for the coming year's program. This information is shared with the members of the BHCEC and a clinical training program is developed.
Differentiation is made between development of in-service education programs and continuing education programs. Once the material has been approved by the Director of Behavioral Health, the module is released to the company for distribution.
In-service education programs are documented and tracked at the site level. Some in-service education is released with the specific purpose of proving system-wide exposure to the training topic.
Specialized training in behavioral healthcare delivery in corrections is often difficult to procure. The BHCEC produces at least six continuing education units on behavioral health specific to corrections each year. These CE modules are distributed to the staff in order to provide ongoing educational opportunities. Corizon Health's Evidence-Based Training and Resource Manual includes a wide range of evidence based training modules as well as tools and resources for behavioral health staff.
With the dynamic growth of both Corizon Health and the correctional healthcare industry, we offer a variety of site, regional and corporate management job opportunities.
Corizon Health offers extensive training programs to prepare our managers for success in the correctional environment. These include:
As the nation's leading correctional healthcare provider, Corizon Health offers a wide variety of ancillary, administrative and other jobs to support our healthcare professionals in the field. Positions at our corporate office include everything from accounting, information technology, and human resources, to sales and marketing. These employees serve as the backbone of our operations, with responsibility for staffing and supporting our more than 550 facilities nationwide.
The advantages of working in correctional healthcare as a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant are vast and varied. Here, your focus is on providing top-quality care. There are no obstacles in the way of that focus, and our entire team is dedicated to that singular goal. You also have a better opportunity to provide follow-up care and ongoing monitoring than in other fields.
In addition, you become part of an integrative team of healthcare providers. You work side by side with the other practitioners, so you help create the larger picture of each patient's health.
Locum tenens is Latin and means "to substitute for." A physician in a locum tenens appointment takes the place of another physician during an extended absence. However, the understanding is that the appointment is temporary, locum assignments can vary from one day to over a year.
The basic requirements for a locum tenens appointment are: U.S. residency training; eligibility to work in the United States; one or more medical practice licenses in good standing and active federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) registration. You will also be asked to complete a Corizon Health locum tenens application and provide current credentialing information.
If you are ready to experience the many rewards of working as a Corizon Health locum tenens provider please email your CV to email@example.com or call 800-222-8215 ext. 9539 or ext. 9541.
You're just a few steps away from the exciting and flexible lifestyle of a locum tenens physician!

The number of flights within Central America has fallen dramatically in October due to the suspension of flights by Mexicana, said OAG Aviation October 6.
In its monthly trend report, OAG said that the number of flights to and from Central America was also down by two percent, and while international carriers should fill this gap by the end of the year, domestic service in Mexico (down nearly 20 percent) "will likely take longer to reach previous levels."
Flights from North American airports to Central/Latin America appear to have been particularly badly hit, with seat capacity down from major cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Miami.
Every other global region showed a growth in air services, with an extra 133,116 flights globally taking to the skies this October than in 2009, a five percent increase equating to some 20.8 million seats.
Africa led the growth, with 15 percent more flights to and from the continent, and the Middle East and Asia-Pacific regions also showed strong growth, both adding 12 percent more flights than a year before.
Flights to and from Europe, which have lagged growth over the past few months, were up 13 percent, said OAG, with flights within the continents also rising five percent.
Flights to and from North America were up by five percent, meaning an extra 3,459 flights will depart for or from the continent this month.Reuse content

Best hotels in Jakarta
Jakarta is the capital and largest city of Indonesia. Jakarta and its immediate surroundings are one of the most populated urban capital regions in the world and the most populous in Southeast Asia. The city is the economic and cultural capital of the country. Established in the fourth century as a shipping port, it remains one of the busiest ports in the world. Jakarta is known for its numerous tourist attractions and is the seat of the ASEAN Secretariat.

Exploring Jakarta
Jakarta is a truly historic city offering both man-made tourist attractions as well as several natural ones. A must visit for any sightseer is the Ancol Dream Park, a 24x7 amusement park that houses various rides, an integrated water park and a stage for various performances, a sea world and even an arts center. The park sports fun activities like bowling, paintball and wakeboarding. On the historical side is the National Museum, built over two centuries ago. The museum is located in the center of Jakarta city and houses exhibits of archeological, historical, and geographical importance.
Getting around Jakarta
Another tourist must-see is the city's national monument, located in the center of Merdeka Square. The monument is a symbol of Indonesia fight for independence and is a major tourist attraction of the region. Tourists should pay a visit to Jakarta's National Gallery, which houses a collection of cultural, historical and visual arts. And for those of you who love shopping, Jakarta is a proverbial shopper's paradise, with offerings from high-end luxury brands, to super budget friendly street shops that offer some unique novelties. The city spots some highly unique local and international cuisine that is a must try! With over 10 million cars and a limited rapid transit system, travelling around Jakarta can get pretty hectic. Since, Jakarta was developed with road networks as priority, it's best to travel around by taxi or car rental. But, it's highly recommended to do your sightseeing on foot, as it'll offer you convenience and a good start to your day. So, head on down to bustling Jakarta and book your Jakarta hotels with Hotels.com.

The Appeal (original 2008; edition 2008)
by John Grisham
Work details
The Appeal by John Grisham (2008)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
A Mississippi town becomes a "cancer cluster" thanks to irresponsible toxic waste dumping by a chemical company that has since pulled up roots in the area. Several high value law suits are filed by small town lawyers, and the initial verdict is a windfall, with many more cases to follow.
This is a tale of them getting squashed by big money, big industry, and their lobbying dollars.
In orchestrating their success, the chemical company, their egomaniacal owner, and out-of-state political interests combine to rig the appeal from the ground-up, going as far as to arrange the replacement of a potentially sympathetic state supreme court justice with a owned puppet. As he is wont to do, Grisham gives us hope -- the puppet suddenly finds himself in the position of victim when his son suffers brain injury from an ball hit from a metal bat that had been recalled because of safety concerns. But in the end, the puppet masters get what they want, and the reader is just left pissed off that even such a hypothetical situation could conceivably happen. Kudos to Grisham for making it seem so plausible.
From Amazon:
In a crowded courtroom in Mississippi, a jury returns a shocking verdict against a chemical company accused of dumping toxic waste into a small town's water supply, causing the worst "cancer cluster" in history. The company appeals to the Mississippi Supreme Court, whose nine justices will one day either approve the verdict—or reverse it.
The chemical company is owned by a Wall Street predator named Carl Trudeau, and Mr. Trudeau is convinced the Court is not friendly enough to his interests. With judicial elections looming, he decides to try to purchase himself a seat on the Court. The cost is a few million dollars, a drop in the bucket for a billionaire like Mr. Trudeau. Through an intricate web of conspiracy and deceit, his political operatives recruit a young, unsuspecting candidate. They finance him, manipulate him, market him, and mold him into a potential Supreme Court justice. Their Supreme Court justice.
My Thoughts:
I wanted to like this story, but I felt the good guy characters-particularly the attorneys for the Paytons, were annoying. They were a little too perfect, a little too altruistic... It was very saccharine. The Paytons were both such "goody-two-shoes" that I didn't identify with them at all. Ironically, I liked the antics of the evil villains more because at least their plots and plans were entertaining. Overall this was a decent book, but I found the simplistic character development aggravating. Better luck next time John.
Grisham tends to write rather formulaic novels, but this one is not like the others. However, I refuse to tell you why as it would spoil the ending. The plot revolves around how big corporations manipulate judicial elections to promulgate their pro-business agendas -- this is a timely novel of political intrigue. What's scary is that is happening every day.
Didn't enjoy this book but it does highlight how corruptive the legal system is.
I have read numerous John Grisham books and have continued to pick them up because I have enjoyed them. I have always found his books to a be an entertaining and easy read. Once I pick up the book, I usually have to keep reading until the end. With this book, I was bored by page two. The book is about the big bad company that poisons the water of the unsuspecting small town. The company is bad, bad, bad, and the small town villagers are good, good, good. The lawyers for the company are BAD and the lawyers for the small town are GOOD. Grisham does show how there are good lawyers and bad lawyers and demonstrates how important the legal system is for the regular person. He goes into politics and I think that his message was too slanted and over the top. Of course he can write a book that shows his point of view, but come on already. We get it, big company = evil. Voting for judges = bad. Us poor unsuspecting little people are easily manipulated by big bad politicians (who happened to be conservatives).
After forcing myself to finish the book, I had to think, is this book just so much more over the top and obvious than the others or have I just changed. I've probably just changed. In Grisham's defense, there some good parts and also some good points to his book. I'm sure he meant to say that there is corruption on both sides of the political spectrum (not just the right). That it important for all judges to look at each case indiviually (not just the conservative ones) and that all political figures can be influenced by those who finance their campaigns.
And I'm sure he meant to say that yes some doctors/ companies etc do make mistakes and should be held accountable, but there are also some punitive awards that are excessive. Balance and moderation should be the goal instead of extremes from either side.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0385515049, Hardcover)As the author of twenty bestselling books, John Grisham has set the standard for legal thrillers since the debut of The Firm in 1991. Enjoy this Q&A--as well as a personal note to Amazon readers--from John Grisham. 1. Your new novel starts off where most courtroom dramas end--with the verdict. Where did you get the idea to reverse the usual order of events this time around?
The actual trial is not a terribly significant part of the story. Most all of the action and intrigue begins after the trial is over, with the verdict and the subsequent appeal.
2. The Appeal overtly suggests that elected judges can be bought. If the novel is meant as a cautionary tale, what's next--the Presidential primaries?
Why not? Over one billion dollars will be spent next year in the Presidential primaries and general election. With that kind of money floating around, anything can be bought.
3. Speaking of electoral politics, you've been more vocal recently about your political views ... first supporting Jim Webb for Senate and now endorsing Hillary Clinton for the White House. Have you given any thought to running for office yourself?
No. I made that mistake 25 years ago, and promised myself I would never do it again. I enjoy watching and participating in politics from the sidelines, but it's best to keep some distance.
4. This is your first legal thriller in three years. How did it feel to get back to the genre that started it all, and can fans expect another thriller from you next year?
I still enjoy writing the legal thrillers, and don't plan to get too far away from them. Obviously, they have been very good to me, and they remain popular. I plan to write one a year for the next several years.
5. Your nonfiction book The Innocent Man continues to be a bestseller in paperback. In your ongoing work with The Innocence Project, have you come across another story of the wrongfully convicted that begs to be written as nonfiction?
There are literally hundreds of great stories out there about wrongfully convicted defendants. I am continually astounded by these stories, and I resist the temptation to take the plunge again into non-fiction.
6. What's on your bedside reading list at the moment?
1. The Nine by Jeffrey Toobin
2. Eric Clapton's autobiography
3. East of Eden by John Steinbeck.

High School Graduation, Performance, and Wages
Using data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics and a proprietary sample of semiskilled production workers, this paper investigates the reasons for the discontinuous increase in wages associated with graduation from high school. The author finds a discontinuous decrease in workers' propensities to quit or be absent. However, he does not find that graduates have a comparative advantage in production jobs requiring more training, nor in either sample is there a discontinuous increase in required training associated with the jobs held by graduates. The wage premium associated with graduation from high school appears to be procyclical, falling during slumps. There is also some evidence suggesting that prior quits have a larger effect on the wages of graduates than on the wages of dropouts. Copyright 1988 by University of Chicago Press.

Piano City
Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th of October the piano will be everywhere in Berlin
During the Piano City Festival virtuosos, professionals and beginners will play music for piano of every genre - classical, pop, and jazz music - in the institutional concert rooms and in the most normal living rooms, creating a musical event for the pleasure of the people of Berlin and visitors.
From 11 am to 11 pm, every spectator can fill out its own program, combining it with an individual path through the German capitol.
To decide its better to have a look at the videos on Youtube that the concert players had to send to participate, where they present a musical piece and a piece of their living rooms.
Better hurry, some venues have room only for few visitors … and the cat.

Those were the days when a man only had one razor, and going by the state of my face way back then, only one blade as well, ha ha. gotta say, i have not enjoyed shaving ever really, now, shaving every other day and lovin every minute. very happy wife too, have learnt so much in the last two months from forums. Just one question, is there a support group for RAD? or is it too late for me already. One face, many razors already.

The devil watches me
Hes waiting for me to mess up
I still try my hardest not to think
Not to question
Not to wonder
But maybe my hardest isnt enough for you is it?
I still feel his pressure pushing down on my soul
Staring down at me waiting for my obedience
To agree to his terms
To turn me to what he believes his perfect
But can't you see your crushing me?
I still wait for someone to see me
See the true me
The me that breaks easily
The me that cant be perfect not matter what you expect
But there will always be those expectations
wont there?
Or is it just me?
Am i the only one hearing the devils knock?
There comes the questions
The unheard cries in subtle text
Do you hear me now?
Can you finally see me?

Wigan ensured that they would finish the Easter programme on top of Super League with an overwhelming 84-6 victory at Hull KR yesterday.
The former Rovers stand-off Blake Green led the way with a hat-trick of tries against his former club, with the prolific Pat Richards contributing 28 points to the massive total.
Boosted by victory over local rivals Hull on Good Friday, three days later the Robins paid the price of fielding a weakened team, with a number of players injured or rested, and found Wigan in a ruthless mood.
There were plenty of points as well at Huddersfield, where the Giants put Friday's shock loss at Salford to one side with a 62-6 thumping of Widnes. Aaron Murphy, who could not get into the side in the early weeks of the season, was the destroyer-in-chief with three tries, while Danny Brough, who was scathing about the performance at Salford, did his bit with nine goals.
Widnes were another side who paid the penalty for juggling a thin squad, coach Denis Betts making six changes to the team that surprisingly beat Warrington.
Josh Perry scored his first tries for St Helens – two of them in the 48-18 defeat of bottom club Castleford. Joe Greenwood was another Saints forward who grabbed a pair.
Bradford kept up their momentum with a 36-24 win over Salford, who are expected to name Brian Noble as their new coach this week.Reuse content

must have for dogs: slider windows for rear hardtop?
hi, :) 1st post! i am not *yet* a wrangler owner -- i've had a soft spot for them since i was 13 but have managed to live in denial thus far. the plan is to bounce down the road in one within the next several months or come spring time! in the meantime, can someone please pitch in to help me with some knowledge about hard top/soft top options? i
i live in rainy oregon and don't have a garage, but my first priority is making sure my two dogs can stick their faces out of the rear area. it looks like slider windows are available for the front area but i haven't seen pop-outs or anything like this for the cargo area (there won't be a back seat). i've checked quadratec and a few other sites -- have i missed something?
if i'm left with only soft top options, does anyone know of a zippered or fastener option to open side flaps in the rear plastic?
thank you!
The hard top doesn't have sliders available that I'm aware of. I carry a couple dogs in my Jeep on a daily basis and the only real option I've found (for me) is to use a dog devider grate with the hard top. With the front windows down they get the smells and the airflow while being 100% contained. I'd worry about them clawing the windows of my soft top, since that's what they already do to my hard top.
I personally have never seen a sliding rear window for the hardtop! The soft top you can unzip the rear on both sides and roll it up! Welcome to the forum!
hey thanks, guys! seen any pop-out window options? and ray, i like your icon pic. look like happy dogs!
Have not seen any pop out windows either!
Jeep Wrangler Cargo Pet Dog Net Nets Netting : Wrangler Netting Kit
There's a net that goes behind the front seats if you look close, not the best pics but I think that could be pretty handy for this situation. Plus they are easy to take down if you need to.
Edit: the one your looking for is called the windjammer
I've been thinking about those cargo nets for the summer months myself. I'm not sure if my boys would try and eat there way out of it tho :p
Here's another source for the Straps:
Safari Straps (Link)
The only Window Sliders that I'm aware of, are the Bestop Front Upper Door Windows, and they will only fit Pre-07/8/9/10 Jeeps... nothing for the JK's as of yet.
With either of the Strap Kits mentioned, Dawg Lovers usually keep the Straps mounted year round. Open the Rear Tailgate Door, and the Dawggies jump in between the bottom of the net and the cargo area, and are secured when the Tailgate Closes.
Your best bet would be with a Soft Top, rather than a Hard Top, when you go looking. The Soft Top can be lowered during your Outing, and can be put up over the Strap Kit without any problems, in the event you run into bad weather. The Strap Netting should be sufficient to keep your "Quadruped Family Members", from doing much, if any, damage to your Soft Windows in the side and rear.
Best of Luck!
Nice info on the straps, but after looking at them a bit, I think I'll have to pass on the idea. I've got the reincarnation of Harry Houdini with scissors for teeth, and they don't look like they would keep him in.
thanks everyone! the straps are a good suggestion.
i might end up trying to rig a cable that attaches to the rear frame -- some kind of a hook and loop system (something that rock climbers might use?), and hook that to the top of the dogs' halters. they could then move around freely but not be able to make a quick run for the hills (or out and across the grocery store parking lot!). a long time ago i saw something like this for dogs in the back of pick-up trucks.
I believe this is what you're refering to. I've thought about that route too, but with 2 dogs I'd be concerned that they would trangle to much. CLICKY
When I first got my Jeep, I too was wandering about rear side window sliders.
There's nothing out there.
Several people suggesed trying to find windows from truck caps or conversion vans that might be able to be made to fit.
Never looked any further into it.
hi ray -- yes, that's exactly it. and hyperbuzzin, i think i'll try two separate things... probably the more active dog on a line and the 2nd dog (who usually prefers to sit or stick to one area) on a hook fastener.
it's too bad someone doesn't make a pop-out. my isuzo rodeo sport (aka amigo) had the non-removable hard top and the pop-out windows made it nice.
Hollsa: I've never seen a hardtop with sliding side windows. There are very few aftermarket hardtops on the market,so you're limited in choices.
You could turn it into a pop-out window with a real good kick. But that's not recommended and will void the warranty.
I saw a dog connected from his harness to a clip on the top center of the roll bar - kept him from jumping out the back of an open Jeep. I was thinking of doing something similar. My CJ is the only family car where my dog is allowed in the front seat, and it confuses him. Scares me when I can't see him behind me, even though he likes it!
hey Geoff@Bestop and Blackbeard1718 -- just to clarify, i'm asking about the rear only (not worried about the front). :)
some of the vintage metal hardtops could be modded. they have real glass windows. ah well, i'm sure i'm over thinking things. thanks very much for pitching in.
Hollsa: Still can't think of anything on the aftermarket side that would allow any of a hardtop's three windows (one on each side, one in the back) to open or slide. I'm not saying no one's ever done it, but I can't think of anything you can buy. If you got real obsessed with the idea, you could talk to hotrod guys for ideas. They modify everything.
Thanks for clarifying! Sorry about that! I did in fact misread it! http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/1...miley245ov.gif
However, the first thing that popped into my mind when I read the part above in Red, was... "Camper Shell Windows"! I used to have Sliders in the Camper Shells on my pickups, and they were great.
If you're looking to modify your Hard Top Side Windows with Sliders, I'd recommend checking with a local place that makes their own Camper Shells for trucks, or maybe some place like an RV Dealer, that knows someone that makes Windows for their Pop-Up Campers and small Camper Rigs. That might get you started in the right direction.
Best of luck!
not a bad idea, blackbeard. i suppose anything is possible, for the right price! thanks for suggesting camper top businesses.
No help on your slider search but I run a loop of 1" climbing webbing attached to the roll bar and a carineener connects to the harness on our labrador. Gives her the ability to move about but don't have to worry about her getting creative and taking off after something.
thanks, whiteyj. any chance for a photo of your set-up? :D
my kids got me a seat belt leash for my shepard. it is made of heavy seatbelt webiing and plugs into the seat belt female connector and the other end has a stout snap hook on it. you could just get a couple of junkyard seatbelts and sew a loop on them and then use a cable thur it to a snap hook for the dogs collor and leave the windows out. cheap fix for the meantime
i saw this conversation, it is an old conversation, but i was wondering if anyone started making some kind of replacement sliding glass for the wrangler hard top windows? i have a wrangler unlimited, but would love to shrink it to a regular two door, but not being able to open the windows for my dogs to stick their heads out keeps me from making the change.
Here's another attempt to Up this thread. I am in the exact same situation, with one GS already installed in the trunk of my Unlimited, and another GS who will soon join the club. The sliders would be a great solution for our worry, cuz we can't drive anywhere with the erar window open - the "pistons" on each side of the window would never resist to such treatment. So we definitely need a lateral solution...
Any ideas ? And this'd be an international fix, I'm in Southern France myself...
I would have gotten the hard top if there windows were removable. I really, REALLY prefer the looks of the hard top but the inability to take the windows out keeps me away. :(

Enhanced Clustering Techniques for Hyper Network Planning Using Minimum Spanning Trees and Ant-Colony Algorithm
The goal of a clustering algorithm is to partition a given data set into clusters or groups, which are not predefined, such that the data points in a cluster are similar to each other more than points in different clusters. These groups are formed according to some measures of goodness that differ according to application. The field of "Ant algorithms" studies models derived from the observation of real ant's behavior and uses these models as a source of inspiration for the design of novel algorithms for solution of optimization and distributed control problems. Ant colony algorithms are a subset of swarm intelligence and consider the ability of simple ants to solve complex problems by cooperation.

Getting you more information on this room
The room was extremely clean, I was not impressed with the amount of road noise. My room was the first one next to the street on the second floor. Light shined into the room even though the blinds were closed. Excellent staff extremely welcoming.
Thank you for your feedback, we are glad your overall visit was a good one and that our cleanliness along with our friendly staff made your stay great; we hope to see you again soon.
Man at check in was very friendly. Certainly not a fancy place, but I was only in the room to sleep and shower. A little dated, but the bed was very comfortable as were the pillows. The room was cleaned every day. McDonalds right down the street, as was the entrance to the Freeway. I would stay here again.
We are delighted to know our staff showed you the customer service we strive for and that our room met your standards; we look forward to seeing you again soon.
I really enjoyed meeting Sunny. His name definitely matches his personality and energy. As soon as we walk in the door we can feel the bright energy. We came in at night definitely needing a relaxed place to stay with a good price. Luckily we did, with a very good atmosphere as soon as we entered the lobby. I saw...
We appreciate the five star rating after your recent visit and are delighted to know that friendly staff, location and amenities made your stay a great one; we hope you choose our Days Inn again soon.
The hotel service was adequate for what you pay. The location is in a rough area, which we didn't know when we booked. You walk in and the glass is bullet proof, but the desk clerk was helpful and accommodating.
Thank you for your feedback, we are glad to know that even though our location was not ideal our service made your stay a good one; we hope to see you again soon.
Is there an elevator?
Is a small dog allowed?
See all questions
"all of them are good"
"If you need anything ask Sunny at the desk. Very helpful!"
"Indicate your preference, the front desk will do their best to accommodate."
"Get upstairs because kids and adults run back and forth on the floors and that sucks when you are trying to sleep, so Im always upstairs, still have to deal with Door slammers and runners, but that is the parents fault for allowing their kids to be little rude crudes"
"I recommend staying elsewhere, however if it is not an option and you are only seeking a place to rest, request a room in a much quieter location."

Fox Finally Gets Around to Pulling 'Fantastic Four 2' Off Its Release Calendar
Posted on Tuesday, November 24th, 2015 by Angie Han
Nobody liked Fantastic Four. Not critics, based on the reviews, and not audiences either, based on the box office. Not even its own director, who jumped on Twitter to distance himself just as the movie was opening in theaters. Nevertheless, 20th Century Fox continued to insist that it was "committed" to the franchise, with a sequel already dated for 2017.
But now Fox has taken a step back, too. In perhaps the least surprising superhero movie news of the year, the studio has quietly pulled Fantastic Four 2 off its upcoming calendar. Plus, Murder on the Orient Express, The Other Side of the Door, and Eddie the Eagle all get new release date. Read More »

Enhancing versus Suppressive Effects of Stress on Immune Function: Implications for Immunoprotection and ImmunopathologyDhabhar F.S.

Stress is known to suppress immune function and increase susceptibility to infections and cancer. Paradoxically, stress is also known to exacerbate asthma, and allergic, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, although such diseases should be ameliorated by immunosuppression. Moreover, the short-term fight-or-flight stress response is one of nature's fundamental defense mechanisms that enables the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems to promote survival, and it is unlikely that this response would suppress immune function at a time when it is most required for survival (e.g. in response to wounding and infection by a predator or aggressor). These observations suggest that stress may suppress immune function under some conditions while enhancing it under others. The effects of stress are likely to be beneficial or harmful depending on the type (immunoprotective, immunoregulatory/inhibitory, or immunopathological) of immune response that is affected. Studies have shown that several critical factors influence the direction (enhancing vs. suppressive) of the effects of stress or stress hormones on immune function: (1) Duration (acute vs. chronic) of stress: Acute or short-term stress experienced at the time of immune activation can enhance innate and adaptive immune responses. Chronic or long-term stress can suppress immunity by decreasing immune cell numbers and function and/or increasing active immunosuppressive mechanisms (e.g. regulatory T cells). Chronic stress can also dysregulate immune function by promoting proinflammatory and type-2 cytokine-driven responses. (2) Effects of stress on leukocyte distribution: Compartments that are enriched with immune cells during acute stress show immunoenhancement, while those that are depleted of leukocytes, show immunosuppression. (3) The differential effects of physiologic versus pharmacologic concentrations of glucocorticoids, and the differential effects of endogenous versus synthetic glucocorticoids: Endogenous hormones in physiological concentrations can have immunoenhancing effects. Endogenous hormones at pharmacologic concentrations, and synthetic hormones, are immunosuppressive. (4) The timing of stressor or stress hormone exposure relative to the time of activation and time course of the immune response: Immunoenhancement is observed when acute stress is experienced at early stages of immune activation, while immunosuppression may be observed at late stages of the immune response. We propose that it is important to study and, if possible, to clinically harness the immunoenhancing effects of the acute stress response, that evolution has finely sculpted as a survival mechanism, just as we study its maladaptive ramifications (chronic stress) that evolution has yet to resolve. In view of the ubiquitous nature of stress and its significant effects on immunoprotection as well as immunopathology, it is important to further elucidate the mechanisms mediating stress-immune interactions and to meaningfully translate findings from bench to bedside.

We have utilized our in vitro and in vivo models of the multiple myeloma (MM) cell in the BM milieu to demonstrate the molecular mechanisms whereby novel agents target tumor cells, host interactions, and the BM microenvironment to overcome conventional drug resistance. We have then rapidly translated these laboratory findings to the clinic leading to FDA approvals of six novel treatments in the past five years;importantly, the median survival of MM patients has been extended from 3 to 7 years as a direct result of these advances. Our preclinical in vitro and in vivo efforts combining bortezomib with lenalidomide demonstrated synergistic MM cytotoxicity, and our derived clinical trials in newly diagnosed patients showed remarkable response;together, these data provided the rationale for the proposed clinical study in Project 1. We hypothesize that genetic changes identified using extensive oncogenomic profiling in Projects 2 and 4 represent novel therapeutic targets in MM. In this Project, we will use our robust human MM model systems to stringently validate the role of these novel targets in MM cell growth, survival, and drug resistance;and assess the therapeutic potential of these targets, both alone and in combination with established and emerging MM therapeutics. We will use a high-throughput shRNA-based assay directed at these targets to identify those regulating MM cell growth and survival in vitro (Specific Aim 1);validate the functional role of selected molecular targets regulating MM cell growth, survival, and drug resistance using our in vitro and in vivo models of human MM in the bone marrow milieu (Specific Aim 2);and evaluate the impact of potential therapeutic agents directed against these validated novel molecular targets, alone and in combination in MM (Specific Aim 3). This proposal will therefore identify the next generation of targeted therapies in MM.
This project will validate biologically relevant and clinically applicable targets in myeloma and develop therapeutic agents directed at these targets in vitro and in vivo for potential clinical consideration.

GAO provided information on the results of its survey on alternatives to the the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) decision to stop development of a new, high-pressure space suit. GAO noted that in light of astronaut safety and productivity issues, NASA will need to reevaluate its decision not to support the development of a new space suit if estimates of Space Station Freedom extravehicular activity requirements are increased substantially in the future.
