"What the machine-builders want to change in the automation technology in 2012" - new Quest study
(PresseBox) (
The new Quest study covers the current changes of the machine-builders in regard to Ethernet and field buses at the machines, the control technology, the drive technology, IO-Link and RFID, in what respect changes of the control system and the drive technology are joined with changes of suppliers and with a view beyond 2012: how the machine-builders are evaluating a comprehensive integration of the machines' automation. Now the machine-builders can compare their changes with those of their sector. The manufacturers of automation technology can adjust to these changes in time and purposefully.
This year the change readiness of the machine-builders shows a differentiated picture. 51% of the machine-builders want to change automation technology at the machines. This value indicates a bottom as the change readiness ranged from 2007 to 2011 between 56% (2007) and 82% (2011). On the other hand the change readiness in regard to the control technology lies with 25% relatively high.
The new Quest study differentiates in detail the changes of the machine-builders regarding the classical field buses, the real time Ethernet protocols and Safety Ethernet. The number of change-willing machine-builders is always combined with the associated machinery potential. Ethernet-based field buses are being further implemented at the expense of non-Ethernet field buses. Also Safety Ethernet finds carefully more users.
Regarding the control technology the technology change is slightly intensifying this year compared to last year. Three control technologies, i.e. the PC technology, the integrated control platform and the PLC, are benefiting from. For years the PLC is again achieving an active role in the technological change.
Three changes in the drive technology are stably showing up, the most important one is the substitution of the classical by the integrated safety engineering at drives.
The readiness to change the supplier in connection with technological changes shows tendencies moving in opposite directions. While this change readiness is noticeably increasing in the drive technology it's on the other hand lowering in the control technology.
The current topic, how the machine-builders evaluate a comprehensive integration of machines' automation, covers a quarter of the study. The comprehensive integration of machines' automation is divided into eight integrated partial solutions. The evaluations of the machine-builders are combined with the related machinery potential. So this part of the Quest study provides a roadmap for the ambitious manufacturer of automation technology to which extent an integrated total solution and to which extent integrated partial solutions will be preferred by the machine-builders in the future.
A part of the changes in the control system and drive technology is published in the Quest Trend Magazine Online on
The new Quest study "What the machine-builders want to change in the automation technology in 2012" is representative since it covers 37% of the machine-building industry companies in 10 section industries with 100 and more employees. It was accomplished in February/March 2012 and covers 78 pages. Highlights, table of contents and budget of the new Quest study are ready for the download on

Posted on 10/19/2005 10:02:38 AM PDT by FOG724
Court tosses Bush plan for Klamath water Water A federal judge says the irrigation plan for farmers doesn't help threatened fish
Wednesday, October 19, 2005
A federal appeals court on Tuesday threw out the Bush administration plan to deliver irrigation water to Klamath Basin farmers, saying it does not do enough for threatened coho salmon in the Klamath River.
The ruling probably will mean more water must be shifted from farmers to fish in the basin's emotional tug of war over the precious resource.
"This clearly could be a worse picture for us than what we had in terms of water for irrigation," said Greg Addington, executive director of the Klamath Water Users Association.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that a federal government strategy to phase in higher river flows for salmon over 10 years was arbitrary and capricious because it overlooked the immediate needs of the fish under the Endangered Species Act.
"It is not enough to provide water for the coho to survive in five years, if in the meantime, the population has been weakened or destroyed by inadequate water flows," the appeals court, based in San Francisco, ruled.
The government plan pledged to provide the fish with all the water they need in the final two years of the 10-year span -- 2010 and 2011. But the fish may not have enough water to complete their lifecycles in the meantime, the judges said.
"If that happens, all the water in the world in 2010 and 2011 will not protect the coho, for there will be none to protect," they wrote.
They sent the case back to a district court to impose corrective measures, which could include more water for fish.
The case resulted from a lawsuit filed by the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen's Associations, the Oregon Natural Resources Council, Waterwatch of Oregon and other conservation groups. They argued that the government strategy left salmon to struggle in a low river while water flowed to farms.
The Klamath Basin entered the national spotlight in 2001 when irrigation water to farms was restricted during a severe drought so it would be available to salmon and endangered suckers in area lakes.
The Bush administration later routed more water for farms under a plan that promised eventually to increase water dedicated to fish. Government agencies argued it was their best judgement as to how to protect the fish in the face of scientific uncertainty over how much water they require.
But judges said the government did not fully explain how it would avoid harming fish in the early years of the plan.
Farmers said the ruling was evidence that the Endangered Species Act has gone too far and must be reformed. But tribes countered that it was evidence the act serves as a final line of defense for families and tribal cultures that depend on salmon.
Everybody polish your buckets.
Any guess on whether the farmers will eventually get their water?
Thanks for the heads up. I read this earlier in my home town paper on line. Aloha
You expected otherwise?...
Oh yeah, the farmer WILL get the water, even if they have to resort to violence or sabotage of the control structures to get it.
You may well be seeing the opening shots of CWII.
Who are these "tribes" of which they speak?
Whenever the Klamath people decide to retake the headgate, do remember to let the FR community know.
Advance notice might be impossible, but it will take days for me to drive out for it (bringing my bucket & shovel with me). ;-)
Lots of publicity abouit this latest steaming pile dumped on the long suffering citizens by the 9 th Circus can't hurt.
The power of the MSM over the years... the "Preble's" meadow jumping mouse, responsible for stopping growth on the front range of Colorado and Wyoming for a number of years, as developers and others have spent millions and millions of dollars to mitigate the impact of development on the habitat of the Preble's (best populations have been found in native waterways on golf courses - unreported fact) turns out that DNA has proven that the endangered Preble's is the same as any other meadow jumping mouse. As time goes on, many liberal myths will be uncovered and addressed on real terms rather than on the side of liberal agenda... ie: seperationism, the biggest of the secular myths
"A federal appeals court on Tuesday threw out the Bush administration plan..."
Well, DUH!! It's Oregon, fer Pete's sake.
FReepmail me to be added or removed to the ECO-PING list!
The battle for water access is not going anywhere anytime soon. We rarely get into these kinds of issues near the largest fresh water basin in he world.
This almost resulted in armed revolt the first time they shut the water off, I think Freeper Jeff Head was there and wrote a good account about it. I will try and find a link.
I guess the Supreme Court gets this next.
Hope Harriet Miers likes property rights.
Thanks for the info. So they're contending that less water will affect their 'traditional' fishing?
I Guess, when the Enviro-Terror/Liberal Courts decided to move the "Goal Posts"...
Like when Lucy, "Plays" Charlie Brown w/ the "Kick the Footbal" routine, again...and again...and again.
Didn't the Indians fess up and admit they had falsified their reports and testimony about the Salmon?
I am polishing my bucket as we speak.
This is an outrage . How much longer do we have to put up with this environ terror and those dim bulb environ wacos?
If it isn't one thing it's another.
What about those farmers that provide us with fresh food?
I have had it with those morons.
Klamath indians
Maybe these people of the Endangered Species Act should be arrested for fabricating and lying about the truth. Now there's the real justice. Making these liars accountable.
It's the government that is lying and they are never accountable. Remember the government employee who set the lake levels was the commodore of the local yacht club. Record level highs were not high enough. He didn't have to pull his boat out of the water that year though.
I must have the wrong goverment job... I can't afford a dingy let alone a yacht!!
Well I don't know how big these boats are. I think it is more of a local boat club but I really don't know.
Is that like, "are you still beating your wife"?
I pray for the day the membership on this court changes.
In the meantime, I hope this nonsense is appealed.
24 And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, [b] and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."
29 Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the groundeverything that has the breath of life in itI give every green plant for food." And it was so.
31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.
Gen. 2: When the LORD God made the earth and the heavens- 5 and no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth [b] and no plant of the field had yet sprung up, for the LORD God had not sent rain on the earth [c] and there was no man to work the ground, 6 but streams [d] came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground- 7 the LORD God formed the man [e] from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
8 Now the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. 9 And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the groundtrees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 A river watering the garden flowed from Eden; from there it was separated into four headwaters. 11 The name of the first is the Pishon; it winds through the entire land of Havilah, where there is gold. 12 (The gold of that land is good; aromatic resin [f] and onyx are also there.) 13 The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the entire land of Cush. [g] 14 The name of the third river is the Tigris; it runs along the east side of Asshur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
15 The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. 16 And the LORD God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; 17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die..."
...Gen 3: 21 The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them. 22 And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever." 23 So the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side [e] of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life... NIV
dammit! Guess I'll have to wait on Jesus! -page
LOL! I was thinking to myself as I read the title-it's gotta be the 9th Circuit. Are those Communistical liberals predictable or what?
That entire group of activist judges should be impeached.
Disgusting isn't it!
The Administration just needs to ignore this judge and continue to march.
9th Circuit strikes again. Appeal to the SCOTUS.

This year looked to be a golden one for gaming. Despite hedge funds getting mown down and US banks falling over like zombies in a gory shooter, the video game industry looked to be recession-proof.
While the pixel trade wasn't exactly capable of seeing off the recession easily, it did weather the financial storm relatively intact. Geeks who stayed inside and played games when the world's markets were good seemed just as happy staying inside when they were collapsing.
This was underlined last month when one of the most-awaited games appeared on shop shelves. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, a gritty first-person shooter, put players in the middle of a terrorist war - and put a walloping £192 million in the till on its first day on sale.
That smashed an entertainment record set by another violent game, Grand Theft Auto IV, with the top box office taker, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince following at a distance.
This shows that games - even those which have a propensity to wind up cotton-wool Mums incapable of reading R18 tags on games - remain a force to be reckoned with across all entertainment mediums.
The E3 games conference in Los Angeles - traditionally the launching pad for titles and technologies - was humming with talk of game control.
Nintendo's Wii, currently the only device to have a true motion control system, looked to be overshadowed by Microsoft's announcement of Project Natal for Xbox 360. The E3 demonstration used no controllers, with players literally using their body movements to manipulate on-screen action. It didn't appear particularly accurate, and then Sony revealed its own motion control system - with players holding ice-block-sized sticks in each hand - with demo players pulling virtual arrows from a quiver and accurately removing the heads of enemies. This has potential to put the console war between the "'Big Three" on to a whole new battleground.
Online extras are also becoming important to the console makers - Xbox now delivers (paid) high-def movies over its Live service, plus access to social networking behemoths Twitter and Facebook, while PlayStation now delivers ad-supported music video across its network.
Top games for 2009
1. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.
Rollicking third-person action adventure title that takes hero Nathan Drake on an Indiana Jones-style quest to find the legendary Chintimani to lead him - not to mention his heavily armed and fairly humourless enemies to Shangri La. Action leaps effortlessly between cinematic cut scenes and firefight chaos, all tastefully tied up with some of the best voice acting and script work seen in video games ... ever. Twenty-six levels of genius and a solid warning to the rest of the electronic entertainment industry to lift its game. Also play: Halo ODST on Xbox 360.
2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
Hyper-realistic war games are guaranteed to, er, draw fire from some quarters and this blockbuster pushed it to the absolute limits. The respected team at Infinity Ward delivered a frantic, high-action war game that pits special forces against terrorist organisations, tied to exceptional graphics and audio. Modern Warfare 2 broke records - possibly on the back of controversy over one scene that puts the hero undercover in a terrorist cell and involves the player shooting innocent civilians. Also play: Left 4 Dead 2 on Xbox 360.
3. Gran Turismo PSP.
Gran Turismo is one of the success stories from the Sony PlayStation realm and while PlayStation3 users wait with bated breath for GT5's much-delayed release, this PSP racing game managed to overtake some stiff portable gaming competition to be the best across Nintendo and Sony's portables. Eight hundred cars, dozens of track options and the choice between time trial, race and drift modes for the single player - plus ad hoc game modes to play against other PSP gamers - make it a tough one to pass up. Also play: GTA Chinatown Wars on Nintendo DSi
4. The Beatles: Rock Band.
Guitar Hero and Rock Band versions have been released in a multitude of ways and are responsible for much of the wedge banked by games companies. But the long-awaited Beatles' back catalogue release timed with a Rock Band game devoted to the Fab Four's songs, with incredible visuals, room for players on guitar, bass, drums, vocals and back-up singers was worth the wait.
It was even heartily endorsed by the surviving members - Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney. Also play: Guitar Hero 5 on Xbox 360, PS3.
5. Forza Motorsport 3.
While Sony's Gran Turismo has been stewing away in Polyphony's studios, the Xbox 360-exclusive Forza Motorsport has been lifting the quality of racing games. This serious simulator has been pushed to the point that everything has been modelled. With exceptional gameplay and well-sorted AI, this realistic sim with 400-odd cars and around 100 track variations can be tailored to suit noobs and race game veterans. Also play: Colin McRae Dirt 2 on Xbox 360 and PS3.

Ronnie Brewer rejoins Bulls for rest of the season
More NBA: Power Rankings | Expert Picks | Latest news & notes
The last place Ronnie Brewer played well and contributed regularly was with the Bulls in 2011-12.
So he's rejoining them.
The team announced this week they've signed Brewer for the rest of the season after the Rockets released him in late February.
"I'm very excited to be playing with (coach Tom Thibodeau)," Brewer told reporters Monday. "He's a tough coach. I play hard and try to hustle. That's the type of players he likes. I'm just happy to be back with some of my old teammates."
After the Bulls decided not to pick up Brewer's $4.3 million option in 2012, he joined the Knicks for half a season then was traded to the Thunder and then signed with the Rockets in free agency. But he never found a foothold with playing time in those stops like he had with the Bulls.
Brewer isn't a strong offensive player, but he's always been capable of playing tough, physical defense, something obviously valued in Chicago. It's unclear as to if he'll be a regular in the rotation, but he could provide some depth behind Jimmy Butler who is relied upon heavily by the Bulls.
"Whatever role you ask him to play, he embraces," Thibodeau told reporters. "If he's not playing, he'll be a great teammate on the bench. He'll provide energy. He'll make sure the guys out there have an understanding of what we're doing. He'll communicate well. He'll tell people what he sees."

Paulina Metzscher says:
"I remember when I first discovered you, I've seen the photographs with the girl hiding in the snow. It got right into my heart last winter and from that day on, began a year long journey following your work till today.
The amount of beauty and emotions your photographs are filled with, can just hold you still. I can feel through them, your mind, your soul.
You developed such a strong sense of creating stories. All this gentle nostalgia, all that anxious, silent feelings. Wistful and calling.
If I could, I would stare at your photographs all day long.
You are my all time favourite. I hope that one day we'll meet. ♥"

"I think is about time I wrote a testimonial about M. This talented girl that goes by Nishe. I was always inspired by her because her pictures are so different from what I usually see on flickr. She doesn't take pictures of people, but of souls and feelings. Each one is so delicate and emotional that it's like reading a poem when you see them. She is also a beautiful girl :)"

Caroline Rhea
Caroline Rhea is returning to Atlanta's Punchline Comedy Club for 2 full days of amazing comedy!! Friday June 17th with 2 shows and Saturday June 18th with 3 shows! Get your tickets and laugh your ass off!!
I love Caroline Rhea–she is my favorite female comedian legend (Craig Shoemaker is my favorite male comedy legend–oh CRAIG!) and I always have to take two Advil BEFORE I see her. Why? Because I have a lack of oxygen from laughing so hard. I asked Vikki to please spank me last year during the show so I could regain consciousness.
What I love about Caroline Rhea is something that not many comedians can do. She can adapt to any situation and be quick on her feet. Her timing is like my sex–very quick! Enjoy a night out at Atlanta's Premiere Comedy Club now in their new location at The Landmark Diner in Buckhead! (Corner of Piedmont and Roswell Road.) The Punchline, celebrating over 30 years of Atlanta's Best comedy. Tickets HERE!
After the show get a great sleep here!
Recipe For Success
I spent the past two days as Host & Emcee of a conference for VSoft, a global information and technology provider of process improvement solutions for financial institutions. (I know, a little intense sounding but a delight for people in the banking industry who use their software.) The event titled "Recipe For Success" took place at the Westin Buckhead (love those Heavenly beds which by the way are Simmons Beautyrest mattresses, I looked.) One sure recipe for success is an event company that is prepared from start to finish. CCP Events led by Terry Singleton and her team were all that a host and emcee like myself could ask for. Bravo!
The day started around 8:30 a.m. with Chef Rebecca Lang who blended her recipe for Black and White Mint brownies with the ingredients of being successful in the marketplace. (I especially loved the cooking tips she mixed in during the presentation.) The brownies were fantastic–thick and chewy. And who doesn't love chocolate at 9 in the morning, right?!
After a long day of seminars and product reporting, we had a team building experience. Chef Challenge! Chef Challenge divided everyone into 6 teams. They were: "Eggheads" & "Sweetie Pie" making the Apps, "Spicy Chefs" and "Georgia Peaches" making the salad and "peaNUTS" and "Hot Tamales" making the dessert. The chef team at the Westin provided all the ingredients and perhaps they knew better of us novices in the kitchen as they nicely laid out plastic sheeting to protect the carpeting! The team of judges (Hotel employees) judged on overall first impression (I had many but couldn't say them out loud), Creativity and product utilization, Presentation, Timeliness, Taste/Flavor Combinations and Team Spirit/Team Work/Passion & Energy.
The competition was hot as a kitchen. All the wannabe chef's assembled their creations influenced by their favorite adult beverage which made for a truly exciting hour!! The desserts were creme brulee and that meant blow torches–STAND BACK! I was even hand fed Jalapeno cornbread by one team member! Perhaps he thought it would influence my decision for a winner. (The winner in my mind at that point was the cornbread.) I, however, was not voting but loved the personalized attention. Once the hour was done and dishes submitted, we all sat down and the fantastic service staff at the Westin Buckhead served up the teams creations to thunderous rounds of applause.
The winners? Eggheads led by Jon Reneslacis for Apps, Georgia Peaches led by Don Walton (who has another career in salads!) and Hot Tamales led by Charles Wiggins for Desserts. We were fed a lot of ingredients over 3 days. So what did I learn? Never put good knives in the dishwasher (loosens the handles and dulls them), use foil with the dull side up as food is less likely to stick (who knew), wood cutting boards are safe to use and for check imaging software development & providers, along with data processing and more, I choose VSoft.
It's People who make a company even greater than their products. Amy Garrett who was my personal "chef" helped create the recipe for this very successful event. And thank you to Chairman Murthy Veeraghanta, President Shekar Viswanathan and their team for tremendous hospitality. The V in VSoft stands for Versatile: Flexible + Innovative + Nimble + Global. Through their own staff, customers, clients and partners I experienced tremendous versatility in a company that sees tomorrow–today. These are all the ingredients in a real recipe for success.
C & S Seafood Oysters–BEST in ATL!
Way to go C&S seafood, voted by Meridith Ford of the AJC as BEST! Meridith says "
1) C & S Seafood and Oyster Bar
Dining critic Meridith Ford Goldman says, "For a landlocked city like Atlanta, a classic fish house is a refreshing change from the usual steak-and-sushi gig, and C & S proves its mettle when it comes to making simple preparations — broiled or chargrilled fish, elegant but simply prepared with sides of roasted fingerling potatoes and haricot verts — into big, bold plates of beauty."
Tom says "C&S is a classy 'joint' from yesteryear with tastes and style that will have you coming back. Love their organic liqueurs too! The grill roasted oysters are A M A Z I N G! I licked the shells (gently.)
Aidan plays the blues…for Africa!
My God son Aidan Hornaday is only 8 years old but he has the heart and soul of someone many years his age. Aidan loves to play harmonica and turned his passion into raising money. He's raised over $3,000 for orphans in Africa to help fight intestinal parasites. $1.00 buys four pills and so far has raised enough money for 12,000 pills!!! When I was eight years old, I was playing with G.I. Joe's (and Barbies-Joe wanted a date you know.) I am extremely proud of him. As a matter of fact, Aidan caught the eye of Ellen DeGeneres and her producers. Way to go Aidan! Love, Tom.

So I love a deal and who doesn't…As you see deals around town, ways to save money, send them to me and I'll post them.
Comcast Cable: Did you know Comcast may provide you with a reduced rate on your cable? Call Comcast @ 404-266-2278 and follow prompts for "change in service/thinking of disconnecting service". I phoned Comcast and they offered me a $15.00 a month reduction in service for 6 months!!

Furniture: We found DHI Furniture clearance center at Mall of Georgia has amazing deals on quality, name brand furniture. up to 70% off! Visit their website by clicking here.
Magic Jack: People are ditching their landlines and using their cell phones. Did you know "Magic Jack" allows you to simply plug a device into your USB port of your computer then plug in your standard land line telephone and make phone calls? It's FREE for local/long distance the first year, then just $20.00 a year after that. Compare that for all the monthly fees you are paying your current phone provider at home.
Clearance: For example, in Target, always check the clearance sections at the ends of the aisles facing the walls….you have to walk past all the "end caps" on each aisle to find the "clearance" and as of late, there is merchandise on clearance in different depts. Did you know Wal-Mart has a clearance section? They're scattered around the store. Hunt them down. And don't forget retailers deeply discounts merchandise at the start of next season. For example, all summer clothing, outdoor furniture, pool equip, garden supplies are all marked way down. For example, end of summerTarget has 75% off above ground pools and 7,000 btu air conditioners!

Home Goods: This store is a division of T.J. Max but the selection is HUGE and the prices are amazing. This store is a destination for anyone looking for quality at off price savings.
Costco: While shopping my favorite COSTCO recently a vendor cooking up a new brand of pizza offered me a sample. I really enjoyed it and she then told me to use my Costco coupon for $3.00 off a box! I didn't have the coupon with me (usually sent to members in the mail.) She informed me that you can use ANY coupon from the current sales flyer on ANY item and the correct amount will be deducted as if you had the actual coupon. So as an example, I scanned the box of pizzas and then scanned a coupon for a package of Kleenex (also in the current sales flyer) and the $3.00 for the pizza was deducted! We love the convenience of that.

»» Choose a your Surfers paradise resort here
Of all the fantastic holiday destinations on the Gold Coast, Surfers Paradise accommodation is by far the most popular. Surfers Paradise is the home of one of the finest surfing beaches in the world and is lined by row upon row of high rise apartment resorts. The holiday infrastructure in the immediate vicinity comes complete with theme parks, restaurants, cafes and boutique shopping arcades. Its central street is the Caville Avenue mall which is famous for its alfresco dining, shopping and proximity to the main surfing beach. Surfers Paradise has more holiday accommodation to choose from than any other region on the Gold Coast and it caters for almost everyone. You can choose from International hotels, backpacker hostels and thatousands of self catering apartments, all at different standards.
Holiday makers in Surfers Paradise have access to all the wonderful attractions that the Gold Coast has to offer. It is easy to take a day trip to the beautiful hinterland regions and see the waterfalls and the rainforests or you can have a shuttle bus service pick you up from your accommodation and take you to one of the beautiful theme parks or wildlife reserves that the region is so famous for. When you combine all of these attractions, there are few places in the world that can provide such a variety of holiday activities. The Gold Coast is always busy so it is necessary to book all accommodation well in advance, and Surfers Paradise accommodation is probably the hardest to find during the busy holiday seasons.

TRISWIM 8oz Chlorine-Out Conditioner
- Overview
- Features
Hydrating formulate for swimmers who are exposed to harsh drying elements such as Chlorine, salt and sun.
- Keratin Amino Acids, Wheat Protein, and Soybean leaves the hair soft, healthy and shiny.
- Citrus/pineapple scent is appealing to men, women and children
- Considered a salon quality product.
- No animal testing
- Paraben Free
- About the brand
TRISWIM established in 2003 by a former stay-at-home mom, Karen Allard, who upon discovering her passion for triathlons developed a line of salon quality hair & body products enhanced to safely remove chlorine, chemical pollutants and build up from hair and skin while locking in nourishing moisture. The company acronym stands for Swim, Bike, Run, the endurance sports in a triathlon, from which Karen conceived the idea for her brand.
Karen has since become a leading age group triathlete and USAT Certified Coach. Her involvement in the sport drew her attention to the hazards of prolonged exposure to the chlorine and other chemicals used to maintain swimming pools that lead to hair and skin damage. Of the countless beauty products in the market, Karen found only a couple that addressed these problems. Unfortunately they proved to be not only cost prohibitive but disappointingly ineffective in dealing with her concerns. Karen realized then that she would have to produce her own solution. Consulting with some of the world's most renowned labs and award-winning chemists, Karen spent a year in development, carefully selecting the precise blend of healthy ingredients that would ultimately produce effective results. She then subjected each prototype to trials under the rigorous conditions of her athletic training.
Consequently she arrived at the ideal products one of which is TRISWIM's 8oz Chlorine-Out Conditioner which pampers your hair as it highly moisturizes. The innovative formula works to hydrate and condition while improving dry and damaged hair without leaving a heavy buildup. Formulated with a light pineapple/citrus scent appealing to men, women and children. TRISWIM uses the finest ingredients that will leave your hair shiny, smooth, hydrated, and healthy looking.
Shampoo hair with TRISWIM Shampoo then smooth TRISWIM Conditioner into wet hair. Rinse thoroughly. Repeat as desired. My use everyday. For all hair types. Safe to use with permed and/or color treated hair
Stay-at-home mom turned triathlete Karen Allard learned the toll that prolonged exposure to chlorine and other chemicals takes on hair and skin and then she produced her own solution: TRISWIM. "TRI" stands for "swim, bike, run," the endurance sports in a triathlon. TRISWIM products safely remove chlorine, chemicals and buildup from hair and skin while locking in nourishing moisture. We think it's a winner.

Social Networking Sites Could Affect Insurance Premiums
Darren Black, the head of home insurance at Confused.com, said: "I wouldn't be surprised if, as social media grow in popularity and more location-based applications come to fore, insurance providers consider these in their pricing of an individual's risk. We could see rises of up to 10pc for people who use these sites.
Black continued, explaining "Criminals are becoming increasingly sophisticated in their information gathering, even using Google Earth and Streetview to plan their burglaries with military precision. Insurance providers are starting to take this into account when they are assessing claims and we may in future see insurers declining claims if they believe the customer was negligent."
For users of social networking websites, Confused.com offers the following advice:
- Never post your home address or other personal information such as your home phone number on social networking sites
- Don't follow people you don't know on social networks and use block others from seeing your profile if you don't know them
- Turn off location-based services on Twitter and Facebook unless you absolutely need to use them

Romeo And Juliet Is Getting A 300-Style Remake
If Hollywood is going to keep bringing William Shakespeare's classic romance Romeo and Juliet back to the big screen, then that means that they are going to have to approach it from absolutely every creative angle imaginable. In the last few years alone we've seen multiple examples of this, but now another one is coming down the pipe.

Romeo And Juliet Will Get An Insane Adaptation With These Mythical Creatures
William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet has long inspired filmmakers with its tale of star-crossed lovers. But the director of Gremlins has a new take on this old school romance, and it involves the financial crisis, vampires, and werewolves. Because obviously?

Romeo And Juliet Trailer: The Girl From True Grit Is All Grown Up And Doomed
If you were a teenager 15 years ago, your definitive Romeo and Juliet were definitely Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes. If you were a teenager 25 years before that, you were all about Leonard Whiting and Olivia Hussey from the 1968 version of the story. Now this Tumbl'd and Twitter'd generation of teens is getting their own tragic love story, with this new adaptation of Romeo & Juliet starring up-and-coming youngsters Hailee Steinfeld and Douglas Booth

Believe it or not, we've actually been waiting for this version of Shakespeare's most well-known love story for over two years now.

James Mangold To Direct Juliet Adaptation
Using one story to tell another seems to be a popular theme these days, with TV series Grimm and Once Upon a Time both working famous literary characters into modern-day stories in their own ways. Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet has been adapted to film before, but the upcoming film Juliet sounds like less of an adaptation of the tragic tale as it is a sequel, and now it has a director.

This website will help you find excellent candidates to perform surgery for you or a loved one for each of 14 types of major surgery.
Here you'll find excellent candidates to perform surgery for you or a loved one for each of 14 types of major surgery. This is the first-ever website to report nationwide, on such a range of procedures, specific surgeons' results in terms of deaths, complications (which we identify based on prolonged lengths of hospital stays), or the need to be readmitted to a hospital. The results are adjusted to take into account that some surgeons treat more difficult cases than others in terms of their patients' age and/or medical conditions.
There are big differences among surgeons. For example–
- For heart valve and bypass surgery, the patients of the best-performing one-tenth of surgeons had death rates of less than 3 percent in-hospital or within 90 days of discharge, compared to death rates of more than 11 percent for patients of the worst-performing one-tenth of surgeons.
- Similarly, for major small and large bowel surgery, death rates ranged from less than 6 percent for the best-performing one-tenth of surgeons to more than 20 percent for the worst-performing one-tenth.
- And for total hip and knee replacement, where deaths are rare, the best-performing one-tenth of surgeons had overall bad-outcome rates (deaths, complications, and readmissions) of less than 8 percent, while the worst-performing one-tenth had overall bad-outcome rates of more than 21 percent.
To create this website showing the better-performing surgeons in the U.S., Consumers' CHECKBOOK/Center for the Study of Services (Checkbook.org) has used government data on millions of cases over a four-year period. We have been performing such comparisons of hospitals for many years, but the federal government would not release data identifying individual doctors. We had been suing the government and pushing for policy changes for more than a decade, but to no avail. Finally, thanks to some forward-thinking people in the government, the needed data were made available. We hope more and more data will become available, quality measurement will continue to improve, and physicians and consumers will continue to work for the best possible outcomes.
You will find the results here, along with other types of information we have pulled together on each listed surgeon–with more to come as this work evolves and improves.
Finding a Good SurgeonTo help you choose the best surgeon, our website tells you which doctors had relatively few deaths and other bad outcomes for 14 types of surgery, which doctors were most often recommended by other doctors, which hospitals used by the doctors had the best surgical outcomes, and other key facts, such as board certification, education, and training.
Types of Surgery We Report onWe report on the following 14 groupings of types of surgery. On our search page, select the type you are interested in and see the surgeons who look good according to our measures. We plan to continuously expand the list.
How Big Are the Differences Among Surgeons?For all of the procedure groups we examined, we found that very large differences exist among individual surgeons. For example, for heart valve and heart bypass surgery, the patients of the best-performing one-tenth of surgeons had death rates of less than 3 percent in-hospital or within 90 days of discharge, compared to death rates of more than 11 percent for patients of the worst-performing one-tenth of surgeons.
Getting the Best CareBefore undergoing surgery, consider the evidence that it is necessary, that no better options exist, and that the benefits are worth it. To do this, talk with your primary care doctor, a surgeon who might perform the surgery, and one or more independent surgeons for second opinions. Any good surgeon will encourage you to get independent second opinions. Our ratings will help you find good surgeons to consult.
How Doctors and Patients Can ImproveThere is much doctors and patients can do to improve outcomes. We want to help everyone do their part.
Doing Your Own Medical ResearchYou can find an enormous amount of medical information online. We list here several useful sites.

Keyshawn Johnson was right: Throw him the damn ball.
Using statistics since the beginning of the 2010 season, and fantasy points determined by ESPN's standard scoring, the charts contained in this column rate players based upon how consistently reliable they are. To familiarize you with some of the terminology:
Start: The number of times that the player's point total in a given week was worthy of having had him active in an ESPN standard league.
Stud: The number of times the player's point total ranked among the top at his position.
Stiff: The number of times the player's point total ranked among the worst at his position, making almost any waiver-wire option a smarter choice.
These are the benchmarks for what constitutes a "Start," "Stud" or "Stiff" performance, numbers identifying the player's rank at his position:
Sat: The number of times the player missed a game. Players are not charged "Stiff" points for sitting out, but it hurts their overall Consistency Rating.
%: The player's overall Consistency Rating, calculated as number of "Start" performances divided by scheduled team games.
Success in fantasy football is not only about seeking the week-winning performance. It's also about avoiding the week-wrecking stinker.
Among the statistical innovations of the new millennium, targets have become the rage in fantasy football. Whereas a decade ago, they were more difficult to find, they're now readily available from a variety of sources, most notably our Scoring Leaders page. And their emergence has greatly enhanced analysis of receivers; we're now better able to isolate trends from fluky performances.
We publish a weekly analysis column that specifically addresses the category, "Trendspotting," on Wednesdays, authored by colleague Ken Daube. It's a must-read in your weekly routine as you look to make sense of the receiver positions.
Simply put: Targets have a hefty influence on receiver performance.
That's a "no-duh" statement, yes, but it runs deeper. Naturally, if raw target totals were all that mattered, Roddy White would have a stronghold on the No. 1 position in fantasy at his position, having led the NFL in total targets (386) and red-zone targets (59) since the beginning of 2010. Last I checked, Calvin Johnson had a one-round, 13-spot advantage over him in this preseason's ADP.
As this is the place to discuss the most consistent players in football, let's take the targets debate a step further: Consistency in the targets category largely fuels overall fantasy value at the wide receiver position, and to a lesser degree at tight end. Specifically, applying the consistency formula reveals a correlation between weekly fantasy point and target totals, and it's the key to identifying receivers with the least amount of weekly downside.
Using targets data since the beginning of the 2010 season, we find that:
• Only 18 wide receivers managed to rank among the top 25 at their position in targets in at least half of their games. (The 2012 rookie class excluded, as they possess a mere three-game sample size.)
• Only 13 wide receivers either sat out or had a target total outside the top 50 at their position in a given week at least five times. (Torrey Smith, a 2011 rookie, is included in this group, though 2012 rookies are not.)
• Seven of the 10 wide receivers with the highest Consistency Ratings -- these can be found in the chart at column's end -- also ranked among the 10 most consistent weekly performers at their position in the target category.
Considering how volatile the position -- only eight wide receivers rank among the top 40 most consistent players since the start of 2010, compared to 19 running backs -- doesn't it therefore make sense to lean more heavily upon opportunity (read: targets) rather than sheer fantasy point totals? Ultimately, each time you see a receiver step up with an unexpectedly good game, take a closer look: Was it fueled by one particularly unexpected play? Has the player earned your trust with a consistently healthy number of targets each week?
Taking a closer look, here are a few wide receivers whose performances in the target category might portend greater success ahead:
Kendall Wright: He has just 13 fantasy points to date, but through his first three games of his NFL career with the Titans, he has been targeted 6, 8 and 11 times, and five overall times in the red zone (at least once per week). Wright, in fact, leads the team in the category after flashing impressive skills in the preseason, perhaps painting him as a lower-level fantasy starter in the coming weeks once he gets fully acclimated to the league.
Reggie Wayne: He's the ultimate "unsexy" pick, more of a short-route runner these days than the playmaker he was during the Peyton Manning regime in Indianapolis, but if the Colts continue to air things out to the degree they have, Wayne is going to make his mark as a potential low-end WR2/high-end WR3 this season. The Andrew Luck-led Colts have averaged 40.7 pass attempts through three weeks, up 7.3 from last season's number and right in line with the Manning squads of old. Let's not forget that Wayne averaged 98 catches per year in Manning's final three healthy campaigns throwing to him.
Pierre Garcon: One game's action this season with the Redskins makes this a difficult case to mount, but Garcon should not be forgotten simply because he missed the past two weeks with a foot injury. His fantasy numbers suffered horribly in Indianapolis, be it due to his backup status during the Manning era, then the miserable quarterbacking the team had in 2011. But Garcon still has managed to crack the top 10 in targets among wide receivers 18 times in 31 games since the beginning of 2010. His per-play upside is considerably greater with Robert Griffin III throwing him the football than it was Dan Orlovsky, and it's not that far a stretch to say he could wind up a consistent top-15 performer at that position once healthy.
Now, there's not necessarily quite as compelling a case at tight end than at wide receiver, but again, downside -- or lack thereof -- comes into play there as well. Again using data since the beginning of 2010:
• Only five tight ends managed to rank among the top 10 at their position in targets in at least half of their games.
• Only three tight ends either sat out or had a target total outside the top 50 at their position in a given week at least five times: Tony Gonzalez, Jason Witten and Brandon Pettigrew.
What do those three tight ends have in common? They're not necessarily candidates to top the fantasy leaderboard come season's end, but they're all target hogs who rank among the eight most consistently reliable at their position. You can call them "unsexy" players; I call them rock-solid weekly starters because you never have to fret the possibility of a doughnut on your box score.
Looking at merely the 2012 returns, one name in particular stands out:
Dennis Pitta: Utilized in more of a backup/blocking role his first two seasons in Baltimore, Pitta has been rolled out wide considerably more often in the season's three weeks, resulting in target totals of 9, 15 and 7, which ranked fifth, first and 10th among his position. He also has five red-zone targets during that span, and at least once each week, which helps build the case that, unlike a Witten or Pettigrew, he's not a mere PPR asset. Target-hogging tight ends tend to be consistent, top-10 weekly fantasy options from a sheer volume basis, and Pitta's role expansion indeed vaults him into that group.
Consistency Ratings chart
Players are initially ranked in order of their Consistency Rating, calculated as the percentage of the player's scheduled games -- not games played, scheduled games -- in which their fantasy point total registered a "Start" score. All categories are sortable both ascending and descending; just click on the headers to sort. Players must have met at least one of the following minimums for inclusion in the chart: 20.0 percent Consistency Rating in standard scoring leagues, 20.0 percent Consistency Rating in PPR formats, or 3 "Stud" performances.
These statistics include all 37 scheduled NFL regular-season weeks since Week 1 of the 2010 season, or 35 games played per NFL team. Rookies are not charged for games missed before they entered the league.

I would have a preventative mastectomy if the chance if breath cancer was high.
What? Did she have them reconstructed? When did she do this?
And yes, i would if the risk was very high.
And yes, i would if the risk was very high.
If the risk was high, yes. Her choice was probably inspired by watching her mother suffer.
It depends on how old I was, at my age now I wouldn't, if I was still young with my small children, I probably would do it....

Sure thing. It doesn't cost as much as one would think. Still cheaper than cancer treatments.
No Im not conviced there is a cancerous gene. We all have cancer cells in our bodies. The problem is the over growth. I feel that diet, reduction of emf exposure, minerals, quality water.... Not tap or bottled water, natural skin products free of harmful chemicals, chemical free cleaning, clothing, bed products..... Etc this overgrowth would not happen. So no I would keep my breast and alter my lifestyle. And yes I know lots of people who have cancer recovered and died..... The difference between there life quality of life and death was lifestyle.

Beth, I live in the South and do not have problem with so called Southern
blight. In all of the time I have grown hostas I have had 2 problems. Each
time the plant was not getting air circulation around the petioles. Once
mulch had washed down on a border of plants and the other was when I had
failed to remove the mulch back away from one plant. Each time I removed all
of the foliage cleaned the area and drenched with a fungicide. The plant
came back as good as new and there was no more problem.
If the humidity does not drop soon, I may not be able to make the above
statement. Heat and rain together are making my garden into a jungle. A cut
leaf Jap maple produce new growth of nearly three feet while I was in Ann
Arbor. Plants in my area are not used to water.

For weeks, the force had been steaming back and forth within the restricted waters of the littoral operating area. Operating so close to land was risky, and the carrier skipper would have been much more comfortable in the open ocean where maneuver was unrestricted and warning time much increased. But carrier air support and naval gunfire provided by the carrier escorts were vital to the expeditionary force ashore. And to be effective, that support had to be available continuously and as close to the action as possible.
