Why Hiring a Licensed Contractor for Your Flooring Installation is Vital
Whether you're building an enormous mansion or a quaint bungalow, you need great quality flooring in order to make life more comfortable. Even if you consider yourself to be a handyman, or if unlicensed contractors tempt you with low installation costs, it's essential that you leave your flooring up to a licensed contractor. Here are a few reasons why you should hire a licensed contractor for your flooring installation:
- Safety
Installing flooring requires a very particular set of skills and a mastery of all the necessary equipment. If you don't know what you're doing, you could easily injure yourself or others. Even if you hire an unlicensed flooring contractor, they may do a subpar installation job, causing potential harm to you and your property down the road.
- Quality Work
Even if you consider yourself to be particularly handy when it comes to flooring, you probably won't do as good a job as a licensed contractor. A big part of a licensed contractor's job is to provide their clients with perfect flooring every time—whereas an unlicensed contractor will likely not have the necessary skills to do a good job, especially if your desired flooring is unusual or challenging to install.
- Lower Cost
While it may seem cheaper to hire an unlicensed contractor or to take on a flooring project yourself, you'll likely shell out a lot more money when you have to hire a licensed contractor to replace the inadequate floor work. By hiring a licensed contractor the first time, you'll end up with a floor that lasts a very long time, saving you time and money in the long run.
If you're looking for a professional, licensed contractor in the Los Angeles area, contact REDRHINO: The Epoxy Flooring Company. A lot of companies claim to be able to do quality work, but few have actually proven themselves. REDRHINO has proven itself by completing jobs for Albertson's, Whole Foods, Mercedes, and other high-profile clients. To learn more, give us a call at (310) 734-8534.

Amdocs Has Signed a Definitive Agreement to Acquire Celcite, a Leading Provider of Network Management and Self Optimizing Network (SON) Solutions
Amdocs Has Signed a Definitive Agreement to Acquire Celcite, a Leading Provider of Network Management and Self Optimizing Network (SON) Solutions
Press Releases
Strategic acquisition will allow service providers to maximize network capacity and quality and use geo-located network data to improve the customer experience
celcite, acquisitions
Rich Text Editor
ST LOUIS - November 05, 2013 -
Amdocs (NYSE: DOX), the leading provider of customer experience systems and services, today announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all the assets of Celcite Management Solutions LLC for approximately $129 million in cash, subject to customary closing conditions. Additional consideration may be paid later based on the achievement of certain performance metrics. This acquisition expands the Amdocs customer experience portfolio further into the network software domain to manage customer experience across both networks and IT. The transaction is expected to close late in Amdocs' current first fiscal quarter or at the beginning of the second fiscal quarter.
The acquisition of Celcite builds upon and enhances the recent acquisition of Actix, and demonstrates Amdocs' continued commitment to its network software and services strategy. By combining Actix's market leading products with Celcite's comprehensive network management and Self Optimizing Networks (SON) services and offering capabilities, Amdocs will be able to offer service providers comprehensive equipment-agnostic optimization solutions.
In addition, Amdocs will be expanding its CES (Customer Experience Systems) portfolio with quality-of-service (QOS) focused, geo-located network data that will drive a variety of optimization use cases. The acquisition will position Amdocs as the first supplier to offer customer experience-driven network optimization software and services based on a holistic view of the customer experience across all domains.
Working as one, Amdocs, Actix and Celcite will be able to provide communication service providers around the globe with a wide range of product-led services to better optimize their hybrid mobile networks, including solutions that can accelerate the rollout of existing networks and new network deployments such as LTE, WiFi and small cells. These solutions will be agnostic to manufacturers of network equipment and components.
Amdocs will also enable service providers to put their customers at the center of the network and optimize customer experience by leveraging real-time network data combined with rich customer data stored in core Amdocs business and operating support systems (B/OSS).
"Together, Amdocs, Celcite and Actix will emerge as the preferred provider of network management and SON solutions to service providers worldwide," said Rahul Sharma, founder and chief executive officer at Celcite. "With the combination of our people, assets, and product/services expertise, we will offer unmatched end-to-end offerings to relieve customers' core network challenges, including capacity and rollout, and help them tie the customer experience to the network in real-time."
"Amdocs customers must optimize their networks to handle the data explosion and reduce associated costs," said Rebecca Prudhomme, vice president of product and solutions marketing at Amdocs. "One of their largest pain-points is dealing with issues that arise within the radio network, which are typically responsible for a large percentage of all customer satisfaction and churn problems. The acquisition will enable Amdocs to better offer our customers solutions (both products and services) for the management and Radio Access Network (RAN) optimization of all mobile networks including 2G, 3G, LTE and small cells to maximize the return from their network assets."
Founded in 2003, Celcite's solutions are deployed at numerous mobile service providers. In addition to product and solution synergies, Amdocs and Celcite share several top tier customers.
Amdocs expects the acquisition of Celcite, if completed, to be modestly accretive to 2014 non-GAAP earnings per share (excluding acquisition related costs and equity-based compensation expense, net of related tax effects). The impact on GAAP results will not be known until after Amdocs completes the purchase price accounting for the acquisition. Amdocs may incur acquisition-related expense in fiscal year 2014 to account for certain costs related to the acquisition.

Overall Rating
They did provide good service and they are the best.
He did a good job on repairing my vehicle.
Good service and good prices. They are close to me. I have never had a problem with them.
I deal with him all the time. I have a business and if something is wrong he takes my vehicles in immediately. He made a part so that I could use my truck. He always gets me in and out because he knows it means money.
I have been there in the past and the service has been top notch, the repairman is cordial. The pricing was fair and the owner and proprietor were polite and courteous. Every time I have been there I have had no problems and I will continue to go back.
When I have a problem I go there, I drop off my car and he does the work needed. Very helpful service, and the staff is very friendly.
The service was great and was done quickly. They are prompt and got me in on a short notice.
He is a good person great service, he is fast speedy and he knows everybody, I only go to Hughes.
We always get great service there.
I met with one directly and he informed me of what work needed done to my vehicle. I talked to other people who had also used them and he came highly recommended.
I think there was a little bit more of a wait time than they told me.
I thought the service was excellent. It was quick, it was at a good price, and the staff was courteous.
I would recommend them, no one gets a ten because everyone has problems to work on.
They're very efficient with the work they did on my car and they made the process was very easy with going through the insurance. They did it in a timely manner. It was done pretty quickly.
I trust him, they do a good job and I have never had any problems with them at all. I feel he is pretty honest, I always take my car to that garage and never have any issues.
I was happy with the work. What I requested to be done was done and it was done efficiently.
- High quality repair
- Guaranteed fair prices
- Real, verified reviews
- Current expert training
- Warranty on repairs
- Great customer service

Butcher Holler is the town where Loretta Lynn grew up.
It's also the name given to a project by the Bostonian Eilen Jewell, who is bursting with projects. This is a well-founded one: a programme of Lynn-written songs played by Jewell's crackling little combo with a hint of rockabilly fire. The voice is supple, open and slightly trite in its swinging. You won't be familiar with all the songs but they're pretty lapidary, as you'd expect. Lapidary and feminine and tough and tender. A semi-precious jewel of a record.

The Washington Capitals have less than a 5% chance of making the playoffs. Tonight, they take on the best team in the Western Conference, the St. Louis Blues, in what is practically an elimination game. They need everyone on board. Unfortunately, not everyone is on board.
Speaking with the press today in St. Louis, Adam Oates revealed Braden Holtby will be starting tonight. That wasn't too surprising until Oates explained the reasoning behind the move. Jaroslav Halak had told the coaching staff he was uncomfortable playing against his former team.
"I talked to Jaro about [starting]," Oates said. "Olie and I talked. Both of us have been traded [during our playing careers]. We know the feelings when you go into your old stomping ground. It's not always easy; you're not always comfortable at least the first time."
"We talked to [Halak], and he just wasn't 100% comfortable [playing]," he said. "Unfortunately at this time of year and where we're at, we can't afford that."
Later, Halak spoke with NHL.com's Lou Korac, saying, "It's still too fresh. Maybe if it was under different circumstances, like next year, you know."
I appreciate Halak's honesty — it takes courage to be this forthright — but the Capitals are literally playing for their season tonight. This looks bad on a bunch of levels. It's one more reason why this season has been excruciating for fans.
A goaltender making nearly $4 million— acquired at the deadline to play in big games exactly like this– doesn't want to play– because he's uncomfortable?
That's a hard sell.
Recently, Ryan Miller declined to play against the Buffalo Sabres, the team he spent his entire 15-year career with. Halak's situation is different however. He played only in parts of four seasons with the Blues after starting his career in Montreal. It shouldn't be that weird.
At the very least, Oates and Halak should have kept private their reasons on why Halak wouldn't play. This situation makes Halak look meek and makes Braden Holtby look like second fiddle instead of the starting goaltender he'll likely be next season.
So here we are, Caps fans. Here we are. Can the season end now?
Certain goalies/players love playing their old team, ESPECIALLY the first time after a trade – mainly to show them they made a mistake. Him not having that fire in him, that is just horrible in so many ways.
I am not 100% comfortable with my season tickets. I think Uncle Ted should allow me a refund for the games I don't want to watch.
This freaking team man i swear…this is so embarrassing. With Oates throwing Ovi under the bus, Ovi making himself look bad with his defense, and now this..this organization has so many issues…I honestly cant wrap my head around Halak's decision…
His thoughts are probably "there is no way we can win this game, and I'm not going to embarrass myself in front of my old teammates."
Which is also not a good way to think.
To be fair, it's not really a "must-win" game… Dallas and New Jersey were, and we lost both… whatever.
Crappy crappy crappy CRAPPY
Regardless of his thoughts or reasoning, his excuse showed lack of competitive fire. Either way, it shows the kind of player he is. He can take a walk as far as I am concerned.
I'll be at the game, so I hope they win… I'm glad I get to see Holtby rather than Halak, since Holtby is a Capital, and Halak is merely passing through.
For real.
I can understand why Halak is uncomfortable but at the end of the day, don't you get paid millions to suck it up and do your job? It's pretty disheartening that this is what the season has devolved into but it is what it is. That said, I don't agree with Oates publicly announcing that…I feel like Halak confided that in confidence and Oates repeating it to the media doesn't help the team in any way. "We decided to give Holts the start" would have more than sufficed.
… I just think it's weird. When I play sports, I take particular enjoyment in showing up my friends… right?
Considering how often he has "rode the hot hand" this year, that would've been the easy out. "Holts stood tall last game, so we're sticking with him this game." But of course not, he has to throw another player under the bus and not actually give Holtby any credit.
Especially if they picked someone else over you.
I'm avoiding contact with a good friend tonight, I warned her that any comments about tonight's game with HER TEAM may ignite the angsty fireball of emotion that is my reaction to the haunted carnival that is my hockey team.
Maybe it will be a nice night though and I can say, "Look at that goalie that just stoned your Blues. Yeah #70, Holtby. That's the one I've been raving to you about the last few years." Ovechkin scoring #50 against Ryan Miller in a barn he's never scored in (that I know of) would also be nice.
I wouldn't want to give odds on whether Holtby will be the solid choice for starting goaltender next year. Every indication right now is the organization doesn't trust him with the job.
Absolutely! It's crappy that Halak said that but there's really no need to throw him under the bus. Keep that stuff in the locker room, Adam.
Aren't we professionals on this team? Isn't that what we're supposed to be? Sometimes professionals keep things behind closed doors -.-; Oates is not helping his case.
Want to upvote this more than once.
oh yeah totally. i got cut by a travel team, first time i played them on my new team, i scored 4 and layer out the coaches son in front of the bench. no better feeling.
And there goes any appreciation Caps fans had for Halak. I honestly cannot say I've ever heard of a professional athlete pulling something like this, but that's probably because the organization has never made it known to the media before. I know Miller asked not to play, but hadn't he started the last 6 or 7 games for the Blues? Halak hasn't started a game since last Friday.
What a train wreck this season has become. I hope we have new leadership in place next year that can take steps towards re-establishing this team as formidable. Right now, we are a joke around the league, verging on Canucks/Maple Leafs status. Ay yi yi.
I seriously don't think I've ever heard of something like this before. Most athletes I know are generally excited by it. Oh man, this team is really something else.
Everybody is just pointing fingers at this point. For heaven's sake can this season please just end?
Also noteworthy: Halak's first game back in Montreal was a 3-0 shutout. He also said yesterday that he was looking forward to the game.
As for Miller, not only was the situation different for the reason you described, but also because STL-BUF was absolutely anything but a "must-win" game for STL.
I've been saying we have lots of issues that have nothing to do with actually playing hockey! Damn, I'm a Bravo Real Housewives junkie, but half of the mental crap that goes on with this team gives those ladies a run for their money! Lots of drama and shade with the Caps and not enough D and biscuits in the basket! The guys gotta get refocused on their own game and winning games, rather than giving all this other bs a platform!
We need to gut this team out and start over fresh. Definitely with a new coach, preferably someone who doesn't tell the press things like this that are best kept under wraps. Now the whole story on the night is going to be about how Halak doesn't want to start and how Holtby is second fiddle. I hope this lights a fire under Holtby that can last in to next season. Or maybe it'll just piss him off and he'll want out like Neuvirth did. The coaching staff and front office of this team is such a joke.
First of all, if we change the GM and coach (as we should), I can't imagine that Holtby holds the new management accountable; thus, he wouldn't want out. Second of all, more importantly, I think it's about opportunity. As long as he's given the opportunity to play and prove himself, I think he, as any athlete would, would not demand a trade; he'd let his play do the talking. Just because we've had a bad run of players wanting out doesn't mean we should expect more trade demands.
There's literally no reason not to trust him with it
At this point in the season, with playoff hopes in the balance, this guy should be prepared to play ANYWHERE. SMMFH.
That is exactly my point.
To those of us watching from the stands and that actually have a brain, no, there's no reason not to trust him with it. Unfortunately, the people that make that decision seem to have repeatedly lost their minds this year.
Oates and Halak both made this public – for some baffling reason. Both comical and infuriating at the same time. Then again, it doesn't matter since both won't be with the Caps next year anyway.
Well, what I'm saying is: I don't think it's a reflection of him as a player. I don't think this makes him a worse player, I just don't understand it.
As a ticket holder seeing the season unravel as it did and "not feeling 100 percent comfortable" about it, can I opt for a refund or perhaps other means of compensation?
What a joke.
I think he is a great goalie, but if he can't turn on his competitive fire against his old team, it shows his character. He doesn't want to be a Cap. Fine. But do your $4mill/year job.
Kind of sounds like he doesn't think we stand a chance against St Louis and doesn't want to make himself look bad right before he's entering the summer as a UFA looking for a 5-6m/yr deal. Cop out but Oates should have kept this between the coaches & the management.
This just feels so… Redskins.
Neither Halak nor Oates will be Washington Capitals next year and I say good riddance! Good day sir! You lose!
well i guess he's not coming back next year….
Man, that game on Sunday against the Lightning is going to be a major rager.
Maybe he's covering his back side in case holtby pitches a stinker
Come on, we are not verging on Canucks status! Canucks have fired their GM and shown signs that they want to reboot for next season. We still don't know if the GM-Oates tandem will still be here next season!
Bye bye Halak. Enter a real veteran goalie in the offseason to backup Holtby in 2014-15.
Holtby is going to be a badass tonight.
At this point, covering his backside by throwing the goalies under the bus is like taking cover behind a chainlink fence in a gunfight. It ain't gonna help.
I'm also onboard the optimism train tonight. I left my playoff hopes in my winter jacket, but maybe our dispirited team will muster enough determination to make it a fun watch. I plan to follow STL through the playoffs in lieu of Caps, it will be a primer for me.
Oh c'mon. What professional goalie WOULDN'T be uncomfortable playing with this defense in front of him?
This team is going to bounce back next season under new (but experienced) leadership. There's just too much talent in that locker room for us to be so mediocre.
I'm pulling for Minnesota in the playoffs because I suffer from dark horse syndrome and Bryz has been killing it in net since he got traded. When you go 6-0-3 after getting traded, you can pontificate about the universe until your heart's content!
That's what Oates should have said instead
I hope the new GM and coach acquire a real veteran goal tender (like a Theodore, Nabokov, Bryzgalov, Khabibulin, Thomas, Giguere or Vokoun). These guys aren't looking for 40 starts and if you have to rest them due to minor injuries and call up Grubauer that's fine. It's the veteran presence there for Braden Holtby. He should be the guy moving forward. Give him every opportunity to succeed.
Why do you feel qualified to assess how he *should* feel in a situation like this? He doesn't feel like he can give it his all, so he shouldn't start, end of discussion.
Completely agree, but the only people that need to know this are Halak, Oates and maybe the other coaches. It brings about more unnecessary distraction for the team when they ALL need to be thinking about bringing their best game to the ice tonight…
Why publicize our weaknesses and undermine Holtby's confidence?
Halak isn't a great goalie. He's a good goalie along with about half the goalies in this league.
A great goalie would be a Ryan Miller or Henrik Lundqvist. I'd put him below about 15 other goalies in the NHL right now.
Um. Hello? Your point just goes to show that we still have our heads up our collective asses. Dead weight = dead weight. If a turd is hanging from your ass, you get rid of it, not carry it around with you. At least the Canucks owners had the decency to treat the fans right and show they're about to make changes…
Minnesota's a good one too. I feel for their goalie situation. I knew Harding's MS diagnosis was a deathknell for his career, but I thought his fight to keep playing was inspiring.
And if we didn't all suffer from dark horse syndrome we wouldn't be Caps fans
Unfortunately I agree that you've hit the nail on the head here. Thank Jebus Mike Green is out… wait, you mean GMGM DIDN'T pick up another top-4 d-man?! WHAT?!?!?!
Being a Caps fan, I used to take comfort in saying to myself "at least they're not the Redskins."
I think you really misread my tone there! Sarcasm doesn't translate via text.
My jaw dropped when I read that about Halak. I have to say, I'm not sure how it makes Holts look second fiddle though. If the plan was to have Jaro start (which I expected), and he unexpectedly couldn't start then of course the start would go to his back-up. Because unfortunately that is what Braden is with Halak's hire, Braden Holtby is the back-up goalie now. And Oates' quotes about Holtby over the last couple of months have made it clear he has no affinity for him so I'm not surprised.
Whatever the hell happened to: you go into your old barn, shut the freakin' door and make them pay for trading you? Jeez, what a bunch of pansies. Grow some balls.
Bottom Line: GET OVER YOURSELF! You are a professional, paid lot's of money to provide a service. Shut up, grab your sack and go play!
P.S. I hope this a$$wipe is gone at season's end.
To be fair to Halak, it's not a step down but a step sideways to start Holtby instead. His reason for wanting to sit may not be as deep a tie to the other team as Miller had to his, but it doesn't have to be– there isn't the huge difference between Holtby and Halak that there is between Miller and who'sits.
Maybe Oates and Halak think the confidence they both have in Holtby is implicit, but it probably would have been smarter to phrase things in those terms. Still, I fault Halak at most for awkwardness in the press, not lack of commitment.
What a mess.
OK, fine, yes, a "good" goalie. I'm questioning Halak's dedication, passion, fire, competitiveness and loyalty to who pays him. The last thing I give a crap about is his playing ability right now. This isn't about whether or not he can stand on his head, it's the fact that he won't for the Capitals, the name across his chest for the next 4 games.
Y'all would blast Oates for starting Holtby over Halak if he didn't put the reason public…
Balls are weak and sensitive. He should grow a vagina. Those things can take a pounding.
Not if he said that Halak wasn't feeling 100 percent (as in physical) or that Holtby was good in his last game, so he was getting the start. Given Oates's "hot hand" theory, it would have been credible.
It was also a very different game for Miller. The Blues had already clinched their spot, or were close to clinching their spot, and were about to play the worst team in the league, so there was no reason to use their starting goaltender.
In this situation, the season is on the line and therefore your starting goaltender needed.
You got any lottery numbers to offer too?
19 70 74 84 92 and the power ball is 8. Play those numbers. #TheBank
Even though, from past experience, the Blues are usually disappointments in the playoffs. Another team who's had a long history of regular season success, only to get dumped in playoffs.
Awesome game for Braden, I wouldn't give Halak a sweater again.
I agree, that's what I'd prefer. I said somewhere else a "Brent Johnson-type." Hopefully higher caliber than that, but he was a pretty solid backup.
Please not Thomas. Also Theodore has mad skills, but also much baggage.
I propose a new form of punctuation to convey sarcasm in written text, independent of the phrase's context. I would call it the "Sarcasmé" (pronounced sar-kaz-MAY): Ø
Just use a Sarcasmé at the beginning and end of the sarcastic phrase. For example:
Ø "Mr. Cherry's wardrobe ensemble last Saturday night bespoke conservative taste and exemplary restraint" Ø
Keycode for the Sarcasmé is [Alt+0216]
I'm not clear as to why this is an issue in the media. Halak has been playing and practicing with the St.Louis players for the past 4 years. They obviously know his every tendency and weaknesses. Why would the Caps want to give the Blues such an advantage by playing Halak? That's like handing the opposing team your play book. The Blues are not familiar with Holtby and it showed last night. I'm just not convinced that this is a lack of competitiveness or loyalty on Halak's part – seems more like a sound strategy to put the Caps in the best position to win. And it worked!
ok, as a primary skins fan since birth (this is rapidly changing to the nats and caps), i can confirm the caps are NOWHERE NEAR that dysfunctional. the oilers are about the equivalent of the redskins. i mean GMGM is no Cerrato. at least he gets a couple right occasionally. and oates may be a knob, but id rather have oates and his lot than shanahan. The same applies with ovechkin. I mean at least on offense, Ovi plays like his head aint up where the sun dont shine. RG3…. just shut up and play football already.
I agree with you, but team management has shows every sing they'd rather he not be the starting goaltender next year. Maybe the new guys will think differently. I hope so.
Also, Leonsis isn't trying to convince people that his teams name isn't a racial slur by hiring a former politician as a spokesperson. Said politician had his political career derailed by using a racial slur on camera. At least the Caps probably won't hire a coach simply because his brother was a good coach. And damn, it's amazing what one bad year can do to a player's reputation. It's almost as if RG3 were coming off a serious injury last year or something…

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Whether he's with them or facing them, the Los Angeles Dodgers bring out the best in Jose Lima.
Since pitching the Dodgers to their only victory in last year's playoffs, the animated right-hander had gone an embarrassing 13 starts without a win for Kansas City. But he pulled everything together Wednesday night and went eight solid innings to lead the Royals to a 3-1 victory over the team that had refused his request for a multiyear contract.
"It was sweet," said Lima (1-5), who had dyed his dark hair blond in an effort to change his luck.
Counting his last start for the Royals in 2003, his 15-start winless streak was tied for third-longest in club history.
"It feels good to get the first one. You know what -- if this was a test from the Man up there, I'm going to take it like a man. I've gone out there and taken my beating every time without making excuses," he said.
Lima had expected a multiyear contract offer after going 13-5 for the Dodgers, but declined a one-year deal and then was not offered arbitration. Feeling bitter toward the Dodgers, he wound up rejoining the Royals, the team that had rescued the apparently washed-up right-hander from the independent Newark Bears in 2003.
With terrific command of his fastball, breaking ball and changeup, he retired 10 straight Wednesday night before walking Antonio Perez with two outs in the eighth. Then, when he threw a called third strike pastJayson Werth to end the inning, he danced toward the dugout pounding his fist into his glove as the crowd roared.
Was he trying to make a point?
"Couldn't you tell?" he said with a grin.
He had six strikeouts and one walk in his longest outing of the season while outdueling Brad Penny (3-3).
Mike MacDougal pitched the ninth for his eighth save.
"Jose got himself going," Dodgers manager Jim Tracy said. "By the third inning, I think he had himself locked in. We'd seen that from a year ago. He started making pitches and continued to make them all the way through the eighth inning. He just never allowed us to get anything going."
Matt Stairs and Brown hit consecutive RBI singles off Penny, breaking a 1-all tie in the fifth and sending the Royals to their 10th win in 14 games since Buddy Bell was named manager. Their fourth straight win tied their longest streak of the year.
Penny went seven innings and gave up three runs and eight hits. He had a season-high seven strikeouts.
"That's always nice to face your old team," Penny said, referring to Lima. "He pitched a great game. He was locating all his pitches."
Mike Sweeney, who left the game in the fourth with a sprained left wrist and elbow, doubled off in the first and made it 1-0 on Emil Brown's double.
The Dodgers tied it at 1 in the fourth after Werth, on the play Sweeney was injured, reached on an infield single and went to second on third baseman Mark Teahen's throwing error.
With one out, Jeff Kent singled to score Werth.
Sweeney, the Royals' only bona fide All-Star candidate, will undergo further tests on Thursday.
"I don't know much except it doesn't look good in terms of being here ready to play tomorrow," Bell said. "It's probably going to be a few days. Hopefully, it's not as serious as it looked. He's got an elbow problem and a wrist problem."
Bell said he doubted Lima felt any extra energy because he was facing the Dodgers.
"He always acts like that," he said. "I think sometimes he just kind of searches for things that give him a little extra edge, a little sense of urgency, maybe."
- Dodgers closer Eric Gagne was placed on the 15-day DL Wednesday with a sprained ligament in the right elbow, the same area that sidelined him the first 35 games this season. He will undergo further tests next week.
- From May 11-June 14, the Royals hit .289, the fourth-best average in the majors. The team average went from .232 to .260.
- Dodgers third base coach Glenn Hoffman was taken to a hospital for tests when he was struck in the head by a ball during batting practice. He was back in the dugout before the end of the game.
- The Royals are in a stretch of 12 straight games against NL opponents.

Drying Compressed Air in Hazardous Atmospheres
Hazardous locations have or could potentially have high concentrations of flammable gases, vapors, combustible dusts, etc. A small spark can lead to a horrific explosion dangerous to equipment and workers in the area. Equipment located in hazardous areas must be specifically designed to prevent ignition and explosion.02/24/2012
Chemical Processing Powder eHandbook: Succeed at Solids Handling
One of the trickiest materials to process, solids are comprised of powders or particulates, a continuous gaseous phase (usually air) and, almost always, a liquid component. Processors that handle solids know only too well the types of throughput problems that come up on a recurring basis. Clumping; effective, economical and safe slurry mixing; dust management and dust explosion risk mitigation are all very real challenges faced by processors of solids. In this Chemical Processing Powder eHandbook, we take a look at how to effectively handle solids including:
- Clumping – the 10 most common sources of agglomeration in bulk solids and how to effectively manage them
- Strategies for optimal slurry mixing

Improve Plant Safety - A Chemical Processing Special Report
In chemicals processing, significant hazards exist -- such as those from fire, explosions or toxic release. The processes themselves, the chemicals being processed and the procedures followed, or lack thereof, can all contribute to the risk exposure of these hazards. What can processors do to mitigate these risks? For chemicals processors, it's crucial to implement processes and solutions to detect and prevent these hazards from occurring in the first place.
Chemical Processing has taken an in-depth look at plant safety -- how to identify the hazards and implement processes and procedures to ensure a safer working environment. This comprehensive Chemical Processing Special Report titled: Improve Plant Safety is now available to download for free.12/14/2011

What Does It Cost To Own Your Dust Collector Filters?
When choosing filters for your cartridge dust collector, a Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) calculation allows you to make the most economical and sustainable choice. TCO is a step-by-step evaluation that explores energy use, maintenance and other factors to compare the real costs of operating a dust collector with different filters. This white paper explains how to perform TCO calculations to save money, time and energy.03/04/2011
OSHA & NFPA Compliant: Keeping Your Plant Safe
In March 2008, OSHA reissued its Combustible Dust National Emphasis Program (NEP) notifying approximately 30,000 companies nationwide that they will be targeted for inspections over the next few years. Mettler Toledo recognizes that many manufacturers are not up-to-date on the latest hazardous area compliance regulations or may not know that their industry is subject to those regulations. Don't wait until your facility receives a surprise visit from OSHA or worse yet, for a catastrophic incident to occur. Take the proactive approach to addressing the "hazardous area advisory level" in your facility.09/20/2010
Asking The Right Questions About Cartridge Dust Collection
Over the past decade, cartridge-style dust collectors have overtaken baghouses as the preferred technology for dust collection in the chemical processing industry. Combining high efficiency filtration with compact size and reduced pressure drop, a high efficiency cartridge dust collector will in most cases be the system of choice.
Choosing the best cartridge collection system for a given application, however, involves research and attention to detail. This article will review four key areas of investigation. By reviewing these topics with a knowledgeable equipment supplier and knowing the right questions to ask, chemical manufacturing professionals will be better equipped to make informed dust collection decisions. Download this whitepaper now.06/21/2010
How Well Do You Know Your Dust?
The collection and testing of dust samples is a long-established practice used by many powder and bulk processors to make informed dust collection decisions. Dust testing protocols have not changed markedly in recent years. The importance of dust testing, however, has changed, and the implications are significant. While knowing your dust has always been good practice, it is rapidly becoming a necessity in today's regulatory climate.
This article will review two separate types of testing: (1) explosibility testing, which is used to determine whether a dust is combustible; and (2) bench testing, which pinpoints numerous physical properties of the dust. Both categories of tests are needed to determine the best dust collection system for your application and whether explosion venting equipment must be part of that system.03/16/2010
The Green Solution
The ever present emphasis on technological efficiency is just one of several forces behind the pressure on companies to "go green" despite a trying economy. The ultimate criterion that determines whether a motor is truly green is energy efficiency. Technology, long the key to efficiency, can help resolve this issue.03/08/2010

Process Safety Symposium Making Safety Second Nature
This 10-page document discusses how the reference from the Center for Chemical Process Safety -- "Inherently Safer Chemical Processes, A Life Cycle Approach," 1st Edition, 1996 -- was updated in 2007. Inherent Safety has been well received by industry, but there has been significant advancement in the concept of inherently safer design over the last 10 years. This overview highlights lessons learned and best practices in inherent safety.01/11/2010
Measurement of Oxygen Concentration in Blanketing and Inerting Operations
Gaseous oxygen measurement with amperometric sensors is the most direct and easiest solution for oxidation and explosion protection.
Unwelcome oxygen Tank blanketing is the process of filling the headspace in storage vessels and reactors with an inert gas to prevent its contents from exploding, degrading or polymerizing and to protect equipment from corrosion. A blanketing system is normally designed such that it operates under higher than atmospheric pressures, therefore preventing outside air from entering the vessel. As oxygen and moisture in the air can be undesired in numerous processes and applications, blanketing is done in a wide range of industries, varying from (petro)chemical to food and beverage, pharmaceutical to pure water.01/06/2010
Choosing the Right Emissions Control Option

MES Harmonization in a Multi-Site, Multi-Country and Multi-Cultural Environment
Case Study of a Plant to Enterprise Solution
This white paper describes a case study of a real-life case harmonizing thirteen chemicals plants on one MES platform and bringing the plant floor at enterprise level the Plant to Enterprise initiative (P2E) . The chemical plants are located on seven different production sites in four European countries: The Netherlands, Germany, Denmark and Sweden.03/02/2009
Closed System Technology Drives the Trend Toward Safer, More Cost-Efficient Chemical Dispensing
In dozens of industries and in millions of applications around the world, dangerous chemicals are transferred from their original shipping containers into smaller jugs or buckets or applied to other end-use processes. Historically, the predominant dispensing method in many of these applications has been through an open system where the liquid is poured out of the container. With a poured system, the container is often flipped on its side and the liquid is poured into a secondary container. The user then just carries the bucket to wherever it needs to go. A mental image of this technique quickly reveals its potential dangers and inefficiencies.02/13/2009
Dust Explosion Protection using Flameless Venting
This 18-page white paper explores a new option flameless venting which has recently been developed for dust explosions and is being actively marketed as an alternative to vent ducting.11/03/2008

Fieldbus offers many benefits, but installation requires some additional considerations over and above normal 4-20mA projects. This whitepaper discusses some of those issues, and shows you how to deal with them.06/06/2008
Environmental Health and Safety Compliance in Biotech Companies: Common Deficiencies Encountered During Audits
Environmental health and safety (EH&S) compliance programs for companies that house laboratories are complex and not easily maintained. Even the most basic plan involves keeping a variety of permits up-to-date, performing regular employee training, conducting inspections, complying with a myriad of chemical storage and handling requirements, and keeping a number of contingency plans current and complete. This white paper identifies the most common pitfalls and four simple steps to keeping your EH&S program current.09/11/2007
Four dust collection system design improvements that can yield significant annual energy cost savings

As a National Consumer Panel member, I scan each item I buy. And nope, I'm not a pimply-faced stock boy doing inventory or some overzealous newly engaged gal who pilfered a registry gun from the store's home section and is now trying to register for Double Stuff Oreos and Diet Coke. I'm just an ordinary mom who is a member of the National Consumer Panel (NCP) Homescan. So what is NCP Homescan? Well, NCP is a company that measures consumer attitudes and behaviors—for example, NCP might have their analysts crunch the numbers to find out just how many boxes of cookies a mother of two from California buys in a week (answer: too many!) and then will relay this information to manufacturers and retailers to help them make decisions on what products to develop or improve. NCP is accepting new applicants for panel members, but you need to hurry—space on the panel is limited. Accepted panel members will receive their very own hand-held scanner. Every time a panel member (or a person in the panel member's household) goes shopping, they will scan the bar code on their purchases. It's fun (yes, my idea of a good time has come to include zapping things!) and best of all, NCP will reward you for your time. The more you scan, the more points you earn—points that can be redeemed for name brand products such as jewelry, household items, toys, and electronics. Also, the more you scan the more entries you will receive for NCP's fabulous sweepstakes for items such as a $20,000 cash prize, a dream vacation valued at $25,000, and a new car or truck! Here's how you can apply to become a NCP panel member: Click Here. In the designated boxes, enter your name, email address, phone number, address and date of birth. Then click on the green "submit" button. It really couldn't be any easier. Wait to hear whether or not NCP has accepted you onto their panel. If you have applied before and were rejected, try again! It took me two tries to get accepted onto the panel. 27 Comments LEAVE A COMMENT Cancel reply Fill in the details below or click an icon to log in.Comment Name (required) Email (required) 27 thoughts on "Hurry!

Really?? I believe they purposely give 2 prepaid return options just to try and scam money out of people who use the untraceable mailing label and say it was lost or never received. Even if I DID use a fed ex label, I wouldn't have the tracking number as it was ON the label THEY provided. Waste of time, hassle and a scam. Never again!

Reply Nancy B. Adams 06/18/2015 at 2:46 pm I have been a member for several years and was an enthusiastic scanner for a while, until I realized how minuscule the rewards are for for the effort of scanning everything you buy. As a rural person, much of what I buy isn't relevant (like a truckload of hay). I spent hours scanning for what would have been a $10.00 reward. My work hours have increased significantly and my health is declining, so after missing a lot of transmissions, the scanner is on the way back to NCP. They ate my points, BTW, so I basically got nothing for years and many hours of scanning and survey work. I have worked in this industry in the past, and this company is often a few steps behind the market. I was in a media survey for years and when I cut the cord and went to streaming, they had no way to accommodate that in their data collection… basically generating irrelevant data for their customers.

Don't waste your time. unless you want to waste a year of your time for a can opener. Keep the packing materials the scanner came in and ship it back asap or they will try to collect $200 from you. everyone should check out the reviews on NCP before wasting any of your valuable time. i'm going to stick to online surveys for extra cash. opinionoutpost and pine cone research has the best survey pay outs, if this helps anyone. Reply Kimberly 03/07/2012 at 2:33 pm Yes, I agree. I got my scanner in November and it didn't take long to figure out it was too much work for very little points and the prizes were not what I expected.

Transferring Voice notes onto Computer
Hi all,
I am having difficulty with transfering voicenotes from my Note 3 to my macbook pro. I am using the pre-installed standard 'Voice Recorder' app.
I know I am able to share the voicenotes via email and then download onto my computer, but the problem I have is that the voicenotes are quite large files so I'm unable to attach to emails.
I have the Kies software which allows me to only download photos, videos and music from my phone, but no option for voicemails/texts etc.
Is there a way around downloading my voicenotes and is there any other Android software which rivals the simple and effective iTunes for iphone phones?? I have downloaded the Android file transfer software but it never works. It never recognises my connection.
I would really, really appreciate some help with this.
Thanks guys,

Re: Transferring Voice notes onto Computer
Don't know if the Mac Kies does things differently, but on my Windows 7 machine, the voice recordings are backed up in the Music folder under Sounds. The location on the computer that I can find them are {YourSpecifiedBackupLocation}\samsung\Kies3\backup\SM-N900T\SM-N900T_{phonenumber}\SM-N900T_{dateandtime}\Music\Sounds\
You know, you can also set the Voice Recorder to save files on the SD card, which would make transfer to your computer very easy.
The WIndows version of Kies 3 backs up much much more than what you listed above, so if those are really the only options it gives you, then if you also have a Windows PC available to you, I would recommend using that. The built in Windows file explorer also lets you drag and drop all these files on your phone to your computer without using Kies. If you only have a Mac available then someone else will have to give you advice about that.

Alongside the gender pay gap and the "glass ceiling", health is one of the biggest issues facing women the world over.
A recent study stressed that while progress has been made to improve women's health "critical gaps" remain which must be tackled.
The study, involving the World Health Organisation and the UN and published in the BMJ journal, highlighted areas that need to be addressed including mental health and cancer.
To mark International Women's Day, here are six health issues affecting women that need to be addressed.
Breast and cervical cancer affect more women than any other forms of the disease. Each year, both of these diseases kill around half a million women each. Most of the women who die live in low and middle income countries where prevention methods are hard to find, and awareness levels are low.
Earlier this year, The Independent spoke to Dr Hania Morsi Fadl, who opened up the Khartoum Breast Cancer Care Centre in the Sudanese capital. The facility is the only breast cancer clinic in the Horn of Africa.
"For developing countries especially, with our customs and traditions, and even more so in the countryside, cancer is a taboo and it is seen as a death sentence."
"I realised there is really urgent need to help, to do something," she said.
Mental health
The study published in the BMJ found that suicide is a leading cause of death between women aged 20 to 59-years-old across the world. Women are also more likely to experience depression and anxiety, due to biological differences but also the pressure of gender roles and responsibilities. For example, women who are abused by their partners are four times more likely to commit suicide than women who don't. A lack of mental health services, particularly in low income countries, exacerbates the situation.
Cardiovascular disease
Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death of women in the world.
Women are three times more likely to die of heart disease than breast cancer, according to the NHS. Women in low and middle-income countries are most at risk.
And despite the worrying rates, women are less likely to be prescribed aspirin to prevent a second attack, receive sophisticated pacemakers or be receive potentially life-saving surgery, according to the Word Heart Federation.
Most women develop heart disease because of preventable factors such as smoking, high cholesterol, diet, obesity or diabetes.

Reproductive and maternal health
Many women across the world struggle to protect themselves against STIs, die in childbirth, and are unable to gain access to safe, legal abortions
The latest statistics WHO from 2013 showed that almost 300,000 women died from pregnancy and childbirth that year. And 99 per cent of maternal deaths occur in developing countries.
Most of these deaths could have been prevented if the women had had access to basic family planning services.
A WHO report assessing women's health between 1990 and 2008 found that one in 10 pregnancies worldwide end in an unsafe abortion. Almost all of these take place in developing countries, where safe and legal abortions are not widely available.
The highest rates of unsafe abortion are in Latin America, a predominantly Catholic region where the procedures are highly restricted or banned entirely, including in El Salvador where abortion is illegal in all circumstances. And as the Zika virus - linked to brain damage in newborns - spreads across the region, experts fear women may be be forced to use back-street abortionists.
In 2014, the United Nation's UNAIDS said it hoped to end the AIDs epidemic as a global threat by 2030. This will mean helping women to prevent catching the virus.
For women aged between 15 to 44-years-old, HIV/Aids is the leading cause of death, according to the WHO.
Unsafe sex is the main culprit for spreading the disease, and a lack of education and access to health services, as well as having less power in sexual relationships, also expose women to the condition.
Violence against women
One in three women under the age of 50 has experienced physical or sexual violence from a partner, or someone who they were not with, according to the World Health Organisation.
As many as 38 per cent of women who are murdered are killed by their partner.
Survivors of such violence are more likely to have mental health illnesses - doubling the rate of depression - unplanned pregnancies, seek abortions and experience miscarriages that those who are not abused.
Sexual violence is also used as a weapon of war.Reuse content

There is no justification for what I want to do. Don't be a jurist and tell me you doubtfully fear a heightened imbalance of my brain.
This slight infraction began to captivate me when I met people at a literacy club. I was absorbent and expounded at their stories of small kingfishers when they went to catch live snakes-not copperheads but rattlesnakes! They canvass the rocks with great ferocity and drag out huge snakes! After fermentation of skinning and tanning, the skins are made into belts.
Kilowatts in my brain lit up and gave me a draconian desire to join the hunt! Expletive! Maybe I will give up this grizzled idea and take up the gossamer.

V8 Ford Capri...Launches off the line
A V8 Ford Capri launches from the start line of Stage 13 of the Tasmanian Tarmac Challenge Rally October 2008. Ford of South Africa assembled the Capri from 1970 to 1972 with a similar model range to the UK. No facelift models or RS variants were marketed in South Africa. About 500 Capris were converted by specialist Basil Green Motors to run the 302 Ford Windsor V8 engine. These models were known as the Capri Perana and were very successful in local touring car events, winning the 1970 South African championship and, in a different format, the 1971 championship as well. No Mk II and Mk III Capris were exported to, or built in South Africa.
