A good friend of mine who is on the development side of IT recently mentioned that he has been fielding an increasing number of headhunter calls and that IT hiring seems to be on the rise. As we discussed this, he mentioned that IT hiring seemed like a good leading indicator of the direction of the general economy, and as we delved deeper into the discussion, the correlation between IT spending and the larger economy seemed quite compelling.
While far more qualified economic gurus might dispute this "economic theory" developed over a couple of burgers in the course of several minutes, there do seem to be some strong indicators within the IT profession of where the economy is going, and despite the abundance of doom and gloom about the global economy, IT just might be telling a different story.
The axe man leaveth
On the negative side, IT seems to be one of the corporate functions that is first subject to cost-cutting once the economy makes a turn for the worse. It's easy to see why: IT rarely generates revenue directly from customers, it often accounts for a large portion of corporate expenditures, and the biggest numbers on the expense side of the ledger usually are the first to get cut. As anyone who has lived through the last few years can attest, as soon as companies feel an economic pinch, IT spending (and thus IT staff) are likely to feel the immediate pain as the axe man relentlessly thins the ranks. More recently, as industry surveys and my friend's anecdotal experience seem to show, this trend is reversing and companies are hiring, rather than firing, IT staff. If IT is the first to be culled when clouds appear on the horizon, presumably it is also the first to be restored as demand necessitates more capacity.
IT spending, and hiring in particular, is a vote of confidence
I would contend that IT spending is a vote of confidence in the future for two reasons. First, much of IT's work is future-focused; it's long-term projects like enterprise systems implementations, building technology-based products, data management and mining, or merger and acquisition-related systems integration work. With some notable exceptions like "burning platforms" or compliance-mandated systems, investing in these types of systems and technologies signals an expectation of future growth for the company as a whole.
The second vote of confidence is a bit ironic in that IT is so good at outsourcing and offshoring, making direct hiring seem even more applicable as a sign of confidence in the future. Most IT organizations are quite competent at using outsourced talent for short-term needs, reducing the necessity to hire staff. Therefore, when direct IT hiring ticks up, it stands to reason that companies see long-term growth ahead that is better served by a long-term hire than a short-term outsider.
More is more
In summary, more spending seems to be a strong indicator of more transactional volume within a company. If you need more hardware and staff to maintain your backoffice invoicing application, presumably you have (or anticipate) a higher volume of invoices. While the market gyrations of the last few days have been nothing but chaotic, an uptick in IT spending just might be the light at the end of the recession tunnel currently plaguing global markets.

Overpricing the Original Macintosh
John Sculley had demonstrated an affinity for public relations while he was at Pepsi. He took the 'Pepsi Challenge' campaign national, and championed the 'Pepsi Generation' campaign that still defines Pepsi's brand today. Unfortunately, he had a lot to learn about computers. His two major contributions to the Macintosh project during the first two years of his tenure as Apple CEO were to covertly fund the Macworld magazine and to inflate the price from $1,495 to $2,495. Macworld went on to become a respected publication, but the price hike did little other than to temporarily inflate Apple's financials.
Steve Jobs had tripled the price of the Macintosh in the years following his takeover from Jef Raskin. Sculley's price hike merely made the Macintosh less palatable to consumers. Jobs had forecasted that he would be able to sell 2 million by the end of 1985, but only 250,000 Macintoshes were sold. Sculley later defended the price hikes because of the incredibly expensive advertising campaigns for the Macintosh, but the damage had already been done.
Macintosh Office
1984 and the advertising inserts in Newsweek and TIME were clearly targeted to consumers and small businesses. If Apple wanted to challenge the IBM hegemony (which it felt it needed to in order to survive), it would have to establish the Macintosh as a universal standard, in enterprise and the home alike. The Macintosh Office was Apple's failed attempt to make the Macintosh a serious contender in enterprise.
The Macintosh Office centered around two products that never materialized the FileServer and BigMac. FileServer was to be the original network appliance. It would be the size of the external hard drives Apple was already selling to business users, and would plug directly into a LocalTalk or PhoneNet network.
The BigMac was much more ambitious. It was to be the replacement for the original Macintosh and the hacked Macintosh XL. The hardware was comparable to the wave of '3M' (named for their megaflop processors, megapixel displays and megabytes of memory) workstations that IBM, Sun and Apollo all had in the pipeline. The software was a radical departure. It would port the Macintosh user interface to UNIX. Apple had gotten as far as ponying up the hundreds of thousands of dollars required for a UNIX license, but development bogged down. When Jobs left the Macintosh/Lisa division in the summer of 1985, his replacement, Jean-Louis Gassee cancelled the project.
FileServer was equally doomed. Supposedly, the hardware was largely completed, but the software development got bogged down. The FileServer was slated for release in late 1985, but never made it to the market. In 1989, AppleShare Server was released, but it required a dedicated Macintosh to run.
The most notable failure in the Macintosh Office was its inaugural ad. Apple and Chiat/Day scored a hit with 1984, and Sculley and Jobs reasoned that 1985 should be no different. Another expensive spot, titled Lemmings, was produced for the 1985 SuperBowl. The ad depicted a line of blindfolded men and women walking off a cliff. The last man in the line stops and takes off his blindfold just before he falls into the precipice. The ad stunned the audience in Stanford Stadium, but not for a good reason. The ad just didn't make sense. Were businesspeople that used PC's or Apple II's suicidal Lemmings'
The Macintosh Office could very well have won Apple a stronghold in the enterprise and small business market, but it only served to alienate it. The LaserWriter was the only successful product to be released under the brand, and it was largely developed by Canon and Adobe. Worse than the vaporware FileServer and BigMac, Lemmings actually offended many of the people who Apple hoped to sell Macintoshes to.

Rated 5 out of 5 by HollyJ from Very comfortable, great fit I love these pants. They are so soft and comfortable and fit perfectly. I especially love the bottom ties, since I am short 5'2 and these are a bit long on me, I can tie them so they don't drag on the ground when I wear flats. They are true to size, maybe slightly big, but they have no stretch, so I stuck with my normal size and they fit perfect. The only issue I have with them is that they are dry clean only.

Rated 5 out of 5 by beetqueen75 from cute pant, but run a little large Usually Bebe runs small, but in this case the pants were a little loose on me. Go with your normal size - 1 size smaller. Very cute pants though. I am getting a size smaller.

You live in NYC? Maybe you've seen Dick Chicken around town? He emailed the other day to let us know about his solo show opening on Oct 23rd in Brooklyn @3rdWard. Below is a taste of the street art of Dick Chicken and what he has to say about his work. Maybe you like it. Maybe you don't. It's not very complicated... As he says his work is about "the food industry, consumerism, multi-national corporate influence, public space... etc"... It's also about a chicken with a dick for a head.
Dickchicken is a mystery. It makes some people laugh. It makes some people angry. It is a litmus test. It tells in no uncertain terms if you have a sense of humor. It is art. It is obscene. It is a dick. It is a chicken. "It's fowl!" It's DICKCHICKEN
"First off, I wanted to tell you how much of a FF fan I am. I have had your blog as my home page forevs...I remember distinctly coming into my job a few minutes early so I could pour over your content like a child opening christmas presents... it totally helped me deal... srsly.
For the longest time I admired the street art world from afar. I knew the zeitgeist existed there. That the gallery art world was stale, the life force was and has been on the streets... for some time now too. Having always made art my whole life, I wanted to participate, to contribute. So, I created a character I found both humorous and biting.
True, the first few manifestations of this character have been a little rough around the edges... but this was all part of the plan. I decided that I would roll these things out a little at a time, making it a bit more sophisticated each time. This way I could expand upon the joke all while starting to implement a larger, more socially conscious agenda to highlight and raise awareness on certain issues that are close to me... (the food industry, consumerism, multi-national corporate influence, public space... etc) But first I thought i would test this thing out to see if it had the legs I thought it might. Well it has seemed to stir up everyone who comes into contact with it.
People either really love it or REALLY hate it. This makes no difference to me, but the fact that it can move people so strongly is a credit to the idea. I think the dialogue it creates is similar to previous controversial art images of past decades."
Dick Chicken Presents 'GIRLS & SNACKS'
October 23, 2009, 7 to 10 p, FREE admission
Join us for the Launch of our new space at 573 Metropolitan Avenue & the unveiling of a Dick Chicken mural & exhibition! This is your chance to learn more about the man behind the cock, preview the new space, and drink complimentary cocktails & Colt 45 & dance to DJ Alden Fonda.

The hemoglobin test is a blood test that measures how much hemoglobin is your blood. Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen.
Alternative Names
Hgb; Hb
How the Test is Performed
A blood sample is needed.
How to Prepare for the Test
No special preparation is necessary.
How the Test will Feel
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain. Others feel only a prick or stinging. Afterward, there may be some throbbing or a slight bruise. This soon goes away.
Why the Test is Performed
The hemoglobin test is a commonly ordered blood test and is almost always done as part of a
- Symptoms such as fatigue, feelings of poor health, or unexplained weight loss
- Signs of bleeding are present
- Before and after major surgery
- During pregnancy
- Presence of chronic kidney disease or many other chronic medical problems
- Monitoring of anemia andits cause
- Monitoring during treatment for cancer
- Monitoring medicines that may cause anemia or low blood counts
Normal Results
Normal results for adults vary, but in general are:
- Male: 13.8 to 17.2 grams per deciliter (g/dL)
- Female: 12.1 to 15.1 g/dL
Normal results for children vary, but in general are:
- Newborn: 14 to 24 g/dL
- Infant: 9.5 to 13 g/dL
The examples above are common measurements for results of these tests. Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
What Abnormal Results Mean
Low hemoglobin level may be due to:
- Anemia due to red blood cells being destroyed earlier than normal (
hemolytic anemia)
- Anemia (various types)
Bleeding from digestive tractor bladder, heavy menstrual periods
- Chronic kidney disease
- Bone marrow being unable to produce new blood cells. This may be due to
leukemia, other cancers, drug toxicity, radiation therapy, infection, or bone marrow disorders Poor nutrition
- Low level of iron,
folate, vitamin B12, or vitamin B6
- Other chronic illness, such as rheumatoid arthritis
High hemoglobin levelis most often due to low oxygen levels in the blood (hypoxia), present over a long period of time. Common reasons include:
- Certain birth defects of the heart, present at birth (
congenital heart disease)
- Failure of the right side of the heart (
cor pulmonale)
- Severe COPD
- Scarring or thickening of the lungs (
pulmonary fibrosis) and other severe lung disorders
Other reasons for high hemoglobin level includes:
- A rare bone marrow disease that leads to an abnormal increase in the number of blood cells (
polycythemia vera)
- The body not having as much water and fluids as it should (dehydration)
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight, but may include:
- Excessive bleeding
- Fainting or feeling light-headed
- Hematoma (blood accumulating under the skin)
- Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)

fast labor, long story
T's birth story started a few months ago. Her big brother C started praying that she'd be born
on a Saturday in August. When we asked him why, he said that he wanted her to be born before school
started. We asked if another day would be ok. He said no. So for months he prayed for her to be born on
a Saturday.
At the end of June I had an Aunt die in California. She was actually my mom's aunt, so my great aunt,
but she meant a lot to me and I knew that even though I was nearing 30 weeks pregnant I had to go to LA
for her funeral. It was going to be a quick trip, Wednesday to Saturday. I got home on the 3rd of July. I
woke up on the 4th feeling pretty crappy. I went to church anyway with the kids. Travis had to work
the entire day and I thought that if I went to church that would be 3 hours of not having to deal with
the kids as they would be in class for at least 2 hours. That evening I started contracting lightly. I tried
everything to get rid of them. Nothing was working. So I called one of the men in our church that is a
priesthood holder and asked him to get one more to come give me a blessing. (Travis was at work, or he
could have been one of the priesthood holders.)
In our church we believe that all worthy men hold the
same power of healing the sick and afflicted as Christ did while he was here on the earth. In the blessing
I was blessed that the contractions would stop and I would be fine. I was told that T would come in
the Lord's time.
The week before Saturday August 21st I contracted off and on all week; anywhere between 30 minutes
and 1.5 hours of contractions. Then after Saturday passed I had a few days of no contractions. Saturday
the 28th I woke in the morning with them again. My midwife had gone out of town, but I was in touch
with her and with my doula and the back-up midwife. I contracted for 4 hours before they finally
stopped. Between the 21st and 28th we convinced C that any day in August would be acceptable for
a birth.
Tuesday August 31, 2010 I had an appointment with the midwife, J, at 1:45 PM today. At this time
I was dilated to four centimeters and contracting lightly. My blood pressure was 140/90. I was sent home
to lie down on my left side and to rest. Again, we called another priesthood holder in the church to assist
Travis in giving me a blessing. We were concerned about my BP as it had been low my entire pregnancy
(110/78-118/80) and my sister had a history of Eclampsia and has had 3 emergency c-sections because of
BP. I was blessed that nature would take its course and that my body would hurry things along so that it
could return to normal. I was also blessed that I would be calm and that I would know exactly what to do
when the time came. If only we knew then what we know now!
From 230 when we got home until 415 the contractions were bearable and 6-8 minutes apart. They soon
got intense enough so I couldn't relax between them and wanted a warm shower while I was waiting for
my doula to arrive. The contractions picked up at 5:30 PM. I knew it was time to go. The contractions
had gone from six minutes apart to two minutes apart. I called the babysitter, P, to come over
immediately. I called J, my midwife, to have her start heading to the birthing center. My doula,
L, who was already heading to the apartment, was called to go to the birthing center instead.
I barely made it down the stairs between contractions. Just before I got into the car, I thought, "This baby
better not be born in the car!" I also thought there was no way to finish labor because the contractions
were so hard and close together. After we left the parking lot, the contractions occurred on top of each
other on Reserve Street near Rosaeur's Market. I suddenly realized I was pushing so I planted my feet on
the floor, my head on the head rest and lifted my derrière off the seat. I tried to lift up my skirt to pull
down my underwear. I started pushing again and my water broke. The traffic was backed up terribly.
Travis went into the suicide lane and was traveling 70 mph telling me not to push any more. He kept
asking me what to do; pull over or drive-- as if I had any ideas! It was then that I said, "Here's a head!
Here's a head!!"
By now it was 5:47 PM and Travis was on the phone with J. Probably one to two minutes after that
there was another gush of fluid and out came her body. She lay suspended on the seat and my underwear
that was down to my knees. I sat there staring at her in disbelief Travis yelled at me to pick up the baby
and wrap her in my skirt or something. I picked her up and she was purple but crying. Then she stopped
crying and started gasping for air. I could see the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck twice and under
each arm once. While I tried to get the cord off Travis arrived at one of the busiest intersections in the
city. T was trying to cry and be able to breathe at the same time. All the sudden, in my mind, I saw
myself turning her over and under the cord to get it off. I started to do what I was seeing in my mind. It
was being played out like a movie. So step by step with my movie I turned her over to unwrap her from
the cord, somersaulted her around until the cord came loose from her neck and under her arms. During all
this time Travis was honking the horn making his way through the red light at Brooks and Reserve. I then
began rubbing T's chest to get her to cry and to breathe. We were two blocks from the birthing
center. We pulled in to the parking lot as everyone came running out to meet us. They clamped the
baby's cord while I was still in the car. Travis cut the cord. The assistant ran with the T inside the
center in order to get the baby warm while the others were trying to figure out how to get me out of the
car. As they got me into the birthing center, I delivered the placenta.
It took J several minutes to sew me up. I sustained a fair amount of tearing inside and out because
of the position I was in as I gave birth. Travis held T the entire time I was being sewed up. Within
15 minutes, T was nursing. She fed for 15 minutes on one side even before the staff at the birthing
center weighed her. She has a super good latch and a deep suck.
After T finished nursing, they weighed her: 7# 11 oz, 20 inches long and her head measuring 14
inches. My blood pressure had dropped to 136/88.
My doula felt so bad she hadn't been there for me. But she was great at the birthing center. She was right
by me while I was being stitched up, helping me through the contracting of my uterus and the stitching, all
while Travis was holding T and introducing her, by phone, to family. She helped T get latched
on, and she had had the presence of mind to grab a camera, as we hadn't, so she took tons of pictures. She
went and got Travis and I some real food instead of just the snacks that we had brought to eat during
labor. I can't wait to see the pictures she took! I am so glad she had her camera or there would be no
pictures to go with out birth story!
My bleeding was minimal and they told me that we could go home as soon as I went to the bathroom and
my BP dropped. By 845 we were on our way home. We got home shortly after 9. P came out to help
me up the stairs while Travis got T in the house. We have 29 stairs leading to our apartment. It will
be a long time before I leave the house again!
I thought my birth story was finished. But as I was showering tonight I realized it wasn't. I can not imagine having this happen and driving into the hospital where I would have been greeted by strangers and forced to answer a million questions and having my baby taken away from me and examined. Instead we were greeted by caring friends, my midwife and her team. I didn't even know some of the people that greeted us, but they were friends none the less. There was no barrage of questions, everyone knew what happened. I was greeted by soft caring hands that only wanted to make sure I was ok. they carefully took everyone inside and I had the most gentle care possible. I got to see my baby who last I had seen was purple and gasping for air. She was in the loving arms of her dad instead of on a table being examined. As soon as I was done being stitched I got to hold her and love her. 15 minutes, maybe 20 was all, not an hour or more that it could have been. How grateful I am for my awesome midwife and her team. They really made a great end to a scary experience. It's one we can laugh and joke about and feel comfortable with. A lot of that is in part to them. Thanks so much!

IBM Corp. has begun the new year with a new corporate purchase.
The computer giant announced Jan. 4 that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Green Hat, a provider in software quality and testing solutions for the cloud and other environments.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
Founded in 1996, Green Hat has headquarters in London, England, and Wilmington, Del.
The company helps customers improve the quality of software applications by enabling developers to leverage cloud computing technologies to conduct testing on a software application prior to its delivery, according to the IBM announcement.
Using Green Hat's solutions, a virtual test environment can be set up in a matter of minutes, rather than weeks, for a fraction of the cost.
Upon the close of the acquisition, Green Hat will join IBM's Rational Software business unit. Its software testing solutions also will be offered through IBM Global Business Services' Application Management Services.
When combined with the IBM Rational Solution for Collaborative Lifecycle Management, developers and testers can achieve unprecedented levels of efficiency, effectiveness, and collaboration while delivering quality software to their business, the announcement said.
Big Blue ended 2011 with three big purchases: Cúram Software Ltd., of Dublin; DemandTec, a San Mateo, Calif.-based provider of cloud-based analytics software; and Emptoris Inc., a Burlington, Mass.-based provider of cloud and on-premise analytics software.
IBM Corp., of Armonk, N.Y., ranks No. 21 on Washington Technology's 2011 Top 100 list of the largest federal government contractors.

sigh, yes guys, she is sick.
This year's 51st issue of Weekly Shonen Jump has announced on Monday that Katsura Hoshino has put her D.Gray-man supernatural adventure manga on hold due to her health. The magazine has not announced when D.Gray-man will return. The manga began in 2004, and Viz Media has published the 11th of the 16 current volumes this month.
~taken from ANN~
Pray that she will get well soon.

Alright, as much as I am aware that Hoshino sensei's health is the main priority here, I still can't help but despair a little. DGM ON HOLD??For me this has just gone slightly beyond frustration.The weekly dgray fix has started occupy such a significant part of my schedule that knowing it's going to be absent for the infinite days to come is just..argh.Especially when the plot's just progressed to such a critical point in the manga.The suspense is going to be quite difficult to put up with.
Nevertheless, as a good fan one shall be considerate for Hoshino sensei's situation and bear with the wait. Hopefully the break will give her the opportunity to inspire on new ideas and give the series a grand comeback.

I understand that you must be really upset about this, even I'm upset about it; D.Gray-Man is a really good manga after all. But remember that Hoshino-sensei has been putting the series on hold for several times already due to her health (not sure what she has, Jump has this policy of just saying that the author is just sick, not ''sick with what'' :P) in fact I don't even think she has any published photos of herself, so we don't know is she is just born sick or not.
And yes, every time she does come back, the series starts to get good again and so I think that this will help her with the manga, like it did before. And I do hope she does get well soon

Thanks for the info, Ja-Y-Ce.
Oh no. This is bad. Now I have to pray for Hoshino sensei's health. Hope she recover quickly. Take your time rest for the meantime. Maybe she also go to do body checkup.
Anyone remember how fast or how long she had on hold in the previous situation? And how many time did thing happen? 2times?
Agreed with you, ffantasy24 and Arabesque. I saw her photos but can't actually remember where. Maybe tou can try myanimelist.net-look for author of DGM or Livejournal(I think). And I think she's cute.

Reminder to myself: there are other ways of checking on Maganka other than ANN
So, yes, there seems to be a picture of her from one of the Con's she attended. She looks pretty normal.
Hoshino-sensei has been taking several breaks over the years, in November 2005 she was severely ill, in February 2006 she went ill again, and then she took a 1 month break after the fight between Cross and Tyki in 2007(and these are just of the top of my head). And then she started taking a week recently again. I think she never had a break longer than 3 months IIRC.
And we don't know waht ahe has, but I really hope she gets better

It always gets a little bit hectic when you have multiple devices to control in a single room. From TVs to air-conditioners and from DVD players to Blu-rays, they all need their separate remotes. However, Android aims to streamline the whole process by giving you some of the best universal remote apps for Android.
Even though I wasn't able to find a bigger number of universal remote apps for Android that worked, those that are included worked perfectly fine. I've been using the sixth app on the list for a while now and it has worked flawlessly on my smartphones. A point to be noted here is that most of your appliances rely on infrared technology to be operated.
So, if your smartphone comes with an IR blaster, you'll be able to easily control them. However, if your smartphone manufacturer skimped on including an IR blaster, you are, unfortunately, out of luck. You'll still be able to control a few smart devices with your smartphone if they are connected to the same wireless network, but it wouldn't be the same.
Note: The best universal remote apps for Android were tested on a Huawei Honor 8 smartphone. I borrowed the smartphone from a friend because my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge doesn't come with an IR blaster. The apps performed perfectly fine and there were no problems faced during testing. I used a Gree air-conditioner and a Samsung TV to test the remotes.
Some smart TVs can be controlled via WiFi but it is recommended you do a little research before purchasing one of the universal remote apps for Android. For more in-depth information about your TV, air conditioner or DSLR camera, refer to their manuals.
- 6.993
Smart IR Remote
This is the one remote to rule them all. Smart IR Remote combines a great interface with thousands of devices to control. The app dominates other universal remote apps for Android just because it supports a staggering 800,000 devices and the list is being expanded on a regular basis.
You will have a lot to offer once this sweet app is installed on your smartphone. Controlling TV, media player and even the old DVD player will not be a big problem once you install the number one app on the list. Like every great thing this app also has one big flaw…it is not compatible with Sony smartphones. This might be a deal breaker for many (don't worry I have another app for you) but those who can run it, should get it.Show Downloads
ASmart Remote IR
ASmart Remote IR trumps all when it comes to a clean and intuitive interface. The best part is that the devices are stored categorically and each big one has an icon. For example all the TVs will be under the big TV icon and the DVD players will be found in its respective section.
The app can control many devices including, TVs, air conditioners, DSLR cameras and projectors to name a few. The search by brand feature makes it easier to locate the device you need to operate. The only downside is that the app is not compatible with Sony devices.https://joyofandroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/App3-s2.jpghttps://joyofandroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/App3-s3.jpg
Easy Universal TV Remote
Easy Universal TV Remote doesn't look fancy but it is still one of the best universal remote apps for Android. This app can control almost every brand of TV there is. Setting it up is simple and the app performs really well. From old TVs to the latest Smart ones, all are supported by this nifty app.
The downside is the bare bones interface which leaves something to be desired. The app is getting updated fairly often with added compatibility and functions so even if your device is not supported, it might be in the near future.
- Free & $3.853
Unified Remote
Unified Remote is unique in the universal remote apps for Android list. That is because it controls your PC and its applications remotely. That's right, you can use this app to control your Windows-based PC while sitting on your couch. I discovered this great app when I made my little PC a streaming and media hub.
It was hard to control a mouse on the saggy couch and I was too lazy to go near the TV to change a movie. Unified Remote made all of that a thing of the past. Basically it connects your PC and smartphone over a server connection and allows you to control many apps on the PC.Show Downloads
AnyMote Universal Remote +WiFi
If you're in the market for a modular remote control, then AnyMote Universal Remote is one of the best options available. It is the only universal smart remote control you would need for all of your home appliances as well as TVs. The app allows you to control a ton of different brands including Samsung, Panasonic and sharp.
You'll also be able to control your Xbox with ease. One of the best things about this particular remote is its customization. You can easily stack up to three remotes on a single screen so you don't have to fiddle around in menus just to control a different device. I find it highly convenient that a single screen is able to control my TV as well as the Blu-ray player.
- Free & $0.993
IR Universal TV Remote
While it may seem that only a few people have installed this app, this is a new updated version of a previously very popular app of the same name. The developers have heard feedback and they did their new app with a much easier to handle design and Android guidelines.
Just as the name suggests, IR Universal Remote allows you to control multiple devices straight from your Android device. From air-conditioners to lights and from DVD players to TVs, this is a fully functioning remote that is completely free. One of the best things about this app is that it doesn't come with any ads or in-app purchases.Show Downloads
SURE Universal TV Remote
If you are only aiming to use an Android remote for TVs only, this is the best app in the list. While it is certainly not on the level of the first two apps, it does offer a large variety of compatible TVs. The app works perfectly fine with standard TVs as well as smart ones.
The interface is well-designed and very easy to understand. Configuring your devices with this remote is also kept very simplistic. I tested this app on multiple TVs, both old and new and it worked perfectly fine. If you are interested in controlling your TV more, take a look at our best TV remote apps for Android list as well.Show Downloads
These are the best universal remote apps for Android available. I hope that you will be able to find the right one to have fun controlling all of your devices. Kindly check the compatibility before going on with the purchases. With so many appliances and smartphones, it is hard to give compatibility notes in one single article. Now be a puppet master and tease your friends by constantly changing channels or turning the heat up.

Predictions of a white Christmas have been up in the air during the past week. But latest reports indicate the holiday Bing Crosby envisioned will take place.
Amber Wilson, Ardmore Emergency Management Coordinator, said Carter County is predicted to receive snow. The only question that remains is how much.
"They now have Carter County in the area with the best chance for snow," she said. "There are two different models. One has the heaviest part to the north of us and the other has the heaviest part down south to the Red River. We could receive as much as three to six inches.
"It is forecast to start Tuesday and taper off on Wednesday."
Travelers will want to take appropriate precautions with their plans to celebrate the holiday. The Ardmore Street Department has plans in place should its services be needed to clear the roads. Equipment has been loaded up in case it is needed and the street departments will clear routes should it be necessary.
Carter County Commissioner Dale Ott said his district would also be prepared.
"We will just have to wait and see," he said. "There is not much you can really do with preliminary work aside from loading the trucks with sand.
"We will have a crew on call. Anytime there is a threat of a storm, everybody is put on notice. The snow is not really a problem. But that ice is the big problem you have."
Temperatures are predicted to dip to 19 degrees Tuesday night, which will impact roads. Municipalities will also be prepared to do what they can in light of storm prediction. The City of Healdton approved a partnership with the Healdton Industrial Authority for snow removal.
"Our plans are to be ready for next year," Charles Clark, City Manager, said. "They have never really been prepared here. We are going to try and have a minimal level of response, sand the hills and curves and major intersections.
"There is not really anything budgeted for it. We will try and stay away from salt because the streets are not in the greatest shape."

Difference between revisions of "Dumai"
Revision as of 04:03, 24 November 2010
Dumai is the main port city in Riau province on the Indonesian island of Sumatra. Typical of such cities, it is quite seedy and there is nothing really much to do once you have arrived except to get out as soon as you can. However, you may well find yourself arriving here as it is a major ferry port with connections to the Malaysian cities of Port Klang, Port Dickson and Malacca as well as other Indonesian cities like Bengkalis and Batam.
Get in
By road
By air
By boat
From Malaysia
Ferries operate from the following Malaysian cities:
From other parts of Indonesia
In Batam, ferries dock at Sekupang, next to the international ferry terminal where there are connecting ferries to Singapore. In Bintan, ferries arrive/depart from Tanjung Pinang harbour in the middle of town.
Indonesia's national passenger shipping company Pelni ships call at Dumai, linking it with Sumatran ports like Medan and other Indonesian islands like Java, Kalimantan and Sulawesi.
Get around
Nothing much to see if you don't have a transport. The town is quite small where you can walk around in half a day just like Kuah, Langkawi, Malaysia.
You can eat the Nasi Padang, cheap. Four persons eat much for less than RM20.
the famous Indonesian Food Restaurant (Nasi padang) is Pak Datuk. Even Jakarta people buy from this restaurant.
There are two or three nice and new hotels. Once you reach the jetty, do not allow any touts to bother you. Walk fast and get a trycycle to go to your hotel. Do not tell anybody how long you are going to stay. You can say you came for business meeting with your boss. Your boss is arriving later. You won't be bothered after that. Otherwise the van touts and tricycle touts will try to push prostitutes.
Get out
The local bus station is about 3 km out of Dumai where busses leave for the nextmost tourist destinations in Sumatra, Bukittinggi (ca. 8-9 hrs) or Lake Maninjau.


text: The intersection of Federal Civil Enforcement: claims and healthcare restructurings Restructuring e-Newsletter - Global Insight Share this 18 OCT 2017 By: Thomas R. Califano Rachel Nanes This article has previously been published in New York Law Journal and is reproduced with permission. It is well known that the healthcare industry as a whole has undergone significant changes, challenges and uncertainties in recent years. Many hospitals, senior living facilities, pharmaceutical companies, laboratories and other healthcare providers are struggling to operate in an industry that has ever-changing state and federal regulations, increasing competition and demanding technological needs. Taken together, these challenges have caused a number of healthcare companies to financially struggle and have resulted in a number of restructurings. Further complicating the financial and operational issues experienced by healthcare companies is the increased prevalence of governmental and quasi-governmental civil claims. Many healthcare companies have been the target of investigations under the False Claims Act by an interagency taskforce created in 2009 among the Department of Health & Human Services, Office of Inspector General, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), and the US Department of Justice (Dal) known as the Health Care Fraud Prevention and Enforcement Action Team. As a result of the government's efforts, the DOJ obtained more than US$2.5 billion in settlements and judgments in 2016 from civil cases involving fraud and false claims against the government by participants in the healthcare industry. In addition, an increasing number of healthcare providers face Medicare or Medicaid "charge-back" claims pursuant to which CMS seeks to recoup amounts previously paid to providers based on a review of prior payments which CMS retroactively determines were improper. In many instances, these government investigations and claims are the tipping points for already distressed healthcare companies causing them to seek Chapter 11 protection. As discussed herein, governmental involvement in these financial restructurings at the very least complicates the process of reorganizing these entities. Background The False Claims Act, which was originally enacted in 1863 out of a concern that suppliers were defrauding the Union army during the Civil War, has become the government's primary tool for combatting alleged fraud. The False Claims Act generally imposes liability on any person or entity who knowingly submits a false claim to the government. Many actions brought by the government or an individual who has knowledge of a false claim (known as a "whistleblower" or "relator") under the False Claims Act involve healthcare-related claims, including actions against companies and individuals related to overpayments from state or federal government programs, improper billing practices and illegal kickbacks. A government investigation under the False Claims Act can have a devastating impact on a healthcare company by not only causing significant reputational damage and concern among the company's creditors and customers, but also by exposing the company to significant monetary penalties. While such penalties have resulted in meaningful benefits for the general public, including stricter compliance with applicable laws and funding for various government programs, the unexpected costs of a government investigation have caused healthcare companies, many of which provide critical goods and services to the general public, to suffer financial distress. In order to seek relief from such financial distress, many healthcare companies have commenced cases under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the Bankruptcy Code). For example, on 25 May, 2017, 21st Century Oncology Holdings and certain of its affiliates, which collectively operate the world's largest network of cancer treatment centers and affiliated physicians (collectively, 21st Century Oncology), sought relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. In support of its bankruptcy filing, 21st Century Oncology noted that, although its operations were profitable, it needed to restructure its balance sheet because of, among other reasons, unforeseen government penalties and settlements. In particular, within two years of its bankruptcy filing, 21st Century Oncology entered into two settlement agreements with the DOJ that provided for the payment of over US$54 million to the DOJ to resolve certain inquiries under the False Claims Act related to 21st Century Oncology's billing practices and physician agreements. Similarly, on 7 June, 2015, Health Diagnostic Laboratory (HDL), which operated laboratories offering comprehensive testing for biomarkers that can indicate risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and related diseases, sought bankruptcy relief in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. HDL noted that it commenced a Chapter 11 case due to a liquidity crisis caused, in part, by HDL's agreement to pay the government US$47 million to settle allegations under the False Claims Act that HDL induced physicians to order unnecessary blood tests. 21st Century Oncology and HDL are not alone; rather, they are just two examples among an increasing number of healthcare companies that have sought bankruptcy relief because the unexpected costs of a government investigation have jeopardized their ability to operate as a going concern. Yet, the relief available to such companies in bankruptcy is significantly limited by government claims. Specifically, §362 of the Bankruptcy Code provides that the filing of a bankruptcy petition operates to stay the commencement or continuation of various proceedings and acts against the debtor and the debtor's property. The automatic stay is one of the most significant protections afforded to a debtor because it allows for a "breathing spell" during which the debtor can formulate a plan of reorganization. While courts have traditionally interpreted the scope of the automatic stay broadly to cover all actions against the debtor, the Bankruptcy Code delineates certain narrow exceptions. In particular, §362(b)(4) provides that an action by the government to enforce its "policy or regulatory power" may proceed notwithstanding the commencement of a bankruptcy case. Courts have held that government actions under the False Claims Act, which seek to prevent or stop a fraud and subsequently fix the amount of damages caused by such fraud, are exempted from the automatic stay as an exercise of the government's "policy or regulatory power." Accordingly, even after a bankruptcy filing, the debtor will need to deal with the ongoing litigation and investigation. While the government's collection efforts are stayed, the debtor's "breathing spell" and ability to turn its focus elsewhere are limited. Additionally, healthcare companies considering bankruptcy relief following a government investigation should be cognizant of a debtor's limitations with respect to discharging government enforcement claims. To achieve the Bankruptcy Code's goal of providing a fresh start, debtors are typically able to discharge nearly every type of unsecured claim. Congress, however, recognized that liabilities that are the result of fraud should be exempted from a debtor's general right to discharge prepetition debts. Specifically, in 2005, Congress amended the Bankruptcy Code to, among other things, prohibit a debtor from discharging certain amounts owed under the False Claims Act. Similarly, debtors will also encounter limitations upon assuming Medicare and Medicaid provider agreements that may be subject to a recoupment claim by the government. In fact, courts have held that debtors cannot assume provider agreements and continue to benefit from the payments thereunder without also accepting the burden of a potential recoupment claim. Accordingly, debtors seeking to assume provider agreements do so at the risk of potentially having to make recoupment payments to the government in the future. Government claims, therefore, can cause a number of challenges in a healthcare company's restructuring. Finally, recent case law indicates that bankruptcy courts have limited jurisdiction over issues related to Medicare or Medicaid programs. For example, in In re Bayou Shores SNF, 828 F.3d 1297, 1299 (11th Cir. 2016), cert. denied sub nom. Bayou Shores SNF v. Florida Agency for Health Care Admin., 137 S. Ct. 2214, 198 L. Ed. 2d 658 (2017), the operator of a skilled nursing facility (Bayou Shores) that generated approximately 90 percent of its revenue under its Medicare and Medicaid provider agreements, sought bankruptcy relief after the government sought to terminate Bayou Shores' provider agreements due to significant deficiencies identified during surveys conducted at the facility. Thereafter, the bankruptcy court enjoined the government from terminating the provider agreements on the basis that the provider agreements were property of the estate and that the automatic stay precluded the government from terminating the agreements. The Eleventh Circuit, however, reversed the bankruptcy court's decision and held that the bankruptcy court did not have jurisdiction over Medicare and Medicaid claims. The Eleventh Circuit's decision in Bayou Shores as well as decisions by courts in other districts divesting bankruptcy courts of jurisdiction to address key Medicare and Medicaid issues have left healthcare companies without a forum to address all of their issues and achieve a successful reorganization. While government investigations protect the health and safety of the general public, they can have a damaging impact on a healthcare company's ability to operate as a going concern. Healthcare companies facing such investigations may be left with no other choice but to seek bankruptcy relief. In doing so, however, companies should be prepared to navigate around the limitations they will likely encounter in addressing government civil enforcement claims in bankruptcy.

The YMCA of Greenwich, CT, announced a major debt restructuring and bank bailout last Friday that will allow the facility to complete renovations, the Greenwich Time reported.
The project was put on hold about three years ago when contractors, owed about $6 million, stopped work and filed mechanic's liens against the YMCA. The Y reached a settlement with the contractors and the bank after a legal battle between the Y and its creditors. The YMCA raised $6 million in new capital in 2011, reducing the total debt from $26 million to $23.5 million.
Just this month, the Y secured a loan for $3.45 million from The First Bank of Greenwich that helped the organization pay off the outstanding mechanic's liens as part of the settlement, the newspaper reported. The Y is counting the loan toward the $6 million in new capital it says it raised, the balance of which is made up of donations, budgetary savings and leftover funds that were to be paid to the contractors at the end of the renovation.
The Y must still pay its lender, JPMorgan Chase, $20 million over the life of the tax-free bonds issued for the project, which have 23 years of 30 to go.
Currently, 40 percent of the building cannot be used because it is under construction. The Y said construction resumed about two weeks ago and is scheduled to be complete at the end of September.
The Y will hold a groundbreaking ceremony at 8 a.m. Wednesday to celebrate the resumption on the project, which will enable the facility to provide elevator access to all levels, complete work on new locker rooms, restrooms and reopen an indoor track. The renovations also will give the Y flexibility to expand its day care facility.

We know you lovelies are craving an uber-stylish soiree to wrap up the week and, oh my goodness, do we have just the affair for you. A converted railway station, a pretty pink color palette and bundles upon bundles of DIY goodness as far as the eye can see.... a whimsical wedding paradise, if you will. All captured in brilliant images by Photobox Photography and planned to absolute perfection by the oh-so-stunning bride and groom, we couldn't have asked for a better weekend treat. See it all here.
Click here for the FULL wedding!
From Kristen + Jeremy of Photobox Photography... Andy and Amy are lovingly referred to by their friends and family as the "A-Team," and they are quite the dynamic duo indeed. They are notoriously a last-minute, always late, down-to-the-wire couple (they squeezed in their engagement session 48 hours before the wedding!), but it seems that this is just they way they roll, and people love them for it. From our pre-wedding discussions about the day, I gathered that most of the pretty little details were going to be DIY. Little did I know how professional it would all look. The venue — an old railway station converted into a gorgeous masterpiece — was their canvas, and they painted it with care. Table runners, candle covers, every single element had come from the creative collaboration of two very talented individuals. I know it took hours ... days ... months of work with lots of help from family and friends. But as a photographer, these things do not go unnoticed. The home-grown flowers, the baked-with-love desserts — so much goodness was going on at this wedding. I don't think anyone even noticed how cold and windy it was that day.
Already Andy and Amy have moved on to their next A-Team project: designing their first home. And no doubt, it will be amazing. I'm hoping this can inspire other brides (grooms too!) to take the extra steps to crafting an unforgettable atmosphere on their wedding day.
From the Mother of the Bride to Photobox Photography... As you know, I was not there to see the first look of my "new son" when he first spied my beautiful daughter on their wedding day. I thank you so very much for capturing that moment for me. I can see the look of anticipation, surprise then pleasure and delight in his blue eyes when he saw Amy's beauty. The realization that "his bride" had finally arrived. That their special day was finally starting. I thank you for capturing this moment. After 35 years my husband still calls me "his bride". He has from that first day ... many moons ago. I hope and wish that Andy will call Amy "his bride" for the rest of their lives. That they continue to have that special look between them. The "look" that your photography captured for eternity. Amy and Andy are so very creative and hard working. Their goal was to create a unique and individualized wedding. They did indeed do that.

Senfbrot - Mustard Bread
10/7/18 This post has been updated to include a sourdough starter here
Facebook friend and co-baker David Wolfe asked me to help him understand some terms in a German recipe. Google translate (always good for a laugh!) is not too fluent in professional German baking lingo.
The formula, published by a German bakers' association, Bäko Gruppe Nord, seemed quite intriguing, combining rye meal and cracked wheat with mustard and cheese. The amounts, of course, were calculated for a commercial bakery (19 kg/43 lb), as were the instructions.
My curiosity was wakened, especially after I saw David's appetizing photos in his blog "Hearth Baked Tunes" so I downsized the formula for two small loaves.
The original recipe requires 16% of the white flour as preferment, all the remaining flour, including the coarse grinds, is worked into the final dough. The breads are baked "bei Brötchentemperatur" ("at roll temperature") - leaving hapless hobby bakers clueless as to what that might be.
But I don't donate for nothing to Wikipedia, a quick research at the German site showed me the light: the breads were to be baked at 465ºF/240ºC.
Since I'm a friend of long fermentation (also from a physician's point of view,) I re-wrote the procedure from using just a small amount of preferment, to preferment plus soaker for the coarse ground rye and wheat, as well as an overnight bulk fermentation.
I can honestly say I never noticed a difference between adding the salt with all the other ingredients, or adding it later to the almost finished dough, as the recipe stated. Peter Reinhart (my guru) mixes everything together at the same time, and I do, too.
For the cheese you can choose between Gouda or Tilsiter. I don't care for stinky cheeses, so I went for the Dutch. Though the recipe didn't specify what kind, I was sure that middle aged cheese (18-month) would work better, as I use it for gratins. Young Gouda is too mild, and really old Gouda unnecessary expensive.
I was very pleased with the result, a beautiful red golden bread, covered with seeds, with a pleasant spiciness, but not too much. It tasted great with cold cuts, and was a wonderful surprise when toasted: a bread with in-built grilled cheese!
The crumb has a nice yellow color from the mustard
SENFBROT - MUSTARD BREAD (2 small loaves)
140 g/5 oz bread flour
84 g/3 oz water
1 g/ 1/4 tsp. instant yeast
2 g/0.12 oz salt
104 g/3.7 oz wheat meal, coarse
70 g/2.5 oz rye meal
130 g/4.4 oz water
3 g/0.12 oz salt
Final Dough
all preferment
all soaker
556 g/19.6 oz bread flour
15 g/0.5 oz instant yeast
16 g/0.6 oz salt
408 g/14.3 oz water
66 g/2.3 oz mustard
122 g/4.3 oz middle aged Gouda (18 month old), coarsely grated or cut in chunks
mustard for brushing
sunflower or pumpkin seed for topping (I used pumpkin seed)
After shaping the loaves are brushed with mustard - I used a medium-hot one from Düsseldorf
In the morning, mix preferment and soaker. Leave at room temperature until using.
In the evening, mix all final dough ingredients at low speed (or by hand) for 1 - 2 minutes, until all flour is hydrated. Let rest for 5 minutes, then knead at medium-low speed (or by hand) for 6 minutes, adjusting with a little more water or flour, if necessary (but beware: dough should be somewhat sticky, clearing only sides of bowl, but stick to bottom!)
Transfer dough to a lightly oiled work surface. With oiled hands, stretch and pat it into a square, first fold top and bottom in thirds, like a business letter, then do the same from both sides.
Gather dough into a ball, place seam side down into a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Repeat S & F 3 times, at 10 minute intervals. After last fold, place dough in lightly oiled container with lid and refrigerate overnight. (I divide the dough at this point already in halves, and refrigerate them in two containers.)
Remove dough from fridge 2 hours before using.
Preheat oven to 465ºF/240ºC, including baking stone and steam pan. Place seeds for topping on a plate.
Shape dough into 2 boules, brush them with mustard, and then roll them in sunflower or pumpkin seeds.
Place breads, seam side down, on parchment lined baking sheet, and proof, until they have grown 1 1/2 times their original size.
Bake for 15 minutes, steaming with 1 cup of boiling water. Remove steam pan, and rotate breads 180 degrees.
Reduce temperature to 210ºC/410ºF, and continue baking for another 25 minutes, or until breads are a deep reddish brown, sound hollow when thumped at the bottom, and register at least 200ºF/93ºC.
Let breads cool on a wire rack.
After brushing the loaves with mustard, they are rolled in pumpkin seeds.

ArtsQuest celebrates its 25th year this weekend with continued growth, expansion � and a world of wine
As the arts festival changes locales to a larger venue at WaterColor, this year's evolution includes a new alliance with one of the resort's businessmen.
With Friday night's opening of ArtsQuest, the cultural event introduces the first WineQuest.
Chan Cox, who owns Wine World at WaterColor, was approached by ArtsQuest promoters about supplying wine for the upcoming ArtsQuest event. However, Cox tends to think big, and introduced the concept of having a WineQuest to go along with the annual art event.
Cox established the Sandestin Wine Festival 27 years ago, and introduced the inaugural South Walton Beaches Wine Festival last month at Grand Boulevard, which reportedly saw phenomenal returns for a first-time event.
Cox's concept for WineQuest is that everyone who purchases a ticket gets a passport that enables them to visit the wines and cheeses of five different countries as they shop for art at ArtsQuest.
"As you navigate around ArtsQuest you get your passport stamped," explained Cox. "The first stop is Italy where you can enjoy sampling a fine dry Italian Prosecco wine paired with a cheese by our cheese experts. The next stop is France where you can enjoy a crisp dry Rose and cheese from the French Alps. Then proceed to Chile, Spain, and lastly South Africa. It will be a lot of fun."
CAA Executive Director Jennifer Steele said, "WineQuest is a natural fit with our move to WaterColor. I am happy to have an association with a merchant who has a business here. Chan has a history of working with non-profits and having WineQuest as a part of ArtsQuest will enhance the event over all.�
This is ArtsQuest's first year to be held at WaterColor. The event began as a little art show at Grayton Beach, then moved to Eden State Gardens, then to Baytowne, then Seaside, and now WaterColor.
"It keeps getting bigger," said Steele. "It was too large for Seaside and their traffic situation. A decision had to be made of whether to keep it there and keep it smaller or move it and allow for growth. It deserved to grow."
This year, there are 130 juried artists featured and another 50 local ones represented.
After opening on May 10, ArtsQuest continues Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. WineQuest is open from noon to 6 p.m.
ArtsQuest is open Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and WineQuest from noon to 4 p.m.
Entry to ArtsQuest is by a suggested $5 donation that benefits the CAA.
A passport to WineQuest is $25.
"Creating WineQuest is a win/win for both of us as proceeds go to CAA," said Cox.

SEATTLE (AP) Hisashi Iwakuma is back on track, and that should create a serious concern for the rest of the American League.
Iwakuma struck out a season-high 10 in seven strong innings, Mike Zunino and Michael Saunders hit solo home runs, and the Seattle Mariners beat the Minnesota Twins 2-0 on Monday night.
Iwakuma (7-4) has not allowed an earned run to the Twins in five career starts, which spans 33 2-3 innings.
''My body, physically, I'm feeling really good right now. My arm feels better, too,'' said Iwakuma, who started the season on the disabled list and then dealt with neck soreness in June. ''Just keeping the ball down and moving to both sides of the plate has helped me a lot.''
After allowing a combined 10 runs in two consecutive starts to close out June, Iwakuma has given up just one in his two outings in July.
''He's got great stuff,'' Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. ''You watch it up there and he doesn't really throw the same thing anytime. His ball moves all over the place and his back-door fastball against right-handers when he gets ahead, he can paint. He's got a great breaking ball, they keep saying it's like a Frisbee.''
Danny Farquhar bridged the gap to the ninth with a scoreless inning of relief and Fernando Rodney pitched the final frame for his American League-leading 26th save in 28 chances.
Kevin Correia (4-11) was credited for the loss despite allowing only five hits in seven innings. It was the fourth time in the last five starts that the right-hander has left the game with no run support, and the sixth time this season the Twins have not been able to score a run for him.
''I still want to win some games here, but when we scored some runs early in the season, I wasn't able to take advantage of it, and now I'm pitching well and we're not scoring as often,'' Correia said. ''Hopefully two and two will come together and I'll be able to turn it around.''
The Twins struggled just to put the ball in play, tying a season high by striking out 14 times.
Minnesota put runners on second and third with one out in the seventh after Kendrys Morales singled and Oswaldo Arcia doubled, half of the four hits Iwakuma allowed on the night. Iwakuma got a groundout to third and a strikeout to end the threat.
''My feeling was it was his ballgame to lose,'' Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said of leaving Iwakuma in the tough situation. ''He's a veteran, he's been pitching well. Pitch count was manageable. I just felt that he should have that opportunity to decide (the outcome).''
Correia faced additional trouble after Zunino's 396-foot blast to left field in the second as Dustin Ackley singled and advanced on Brad Miller's one-out walk. Correia was able to retire the next two batters, though, to avoid further damage.
Saunders' sixth home run of the year was nearly caught by Sam Fuld, but the ball tipped off the top of the center fielder's glove as he slammed into the fence.
The shutout continues a strong run by Mariners pitching, in which the staff has allowed three runs in 29 innings.
NOTES: Twins assistant general manager Rob Antony said there are no updates on 1B Joe Mauer (oblique strain) and INF Danny Santana (bone bruise in left knee), although both are progressing fine. ... Manager Lloyd McClendon said the Mariners have not decided who will start Thursday's game against the Twins. McClendon also said the scheduled starters for the weekend series against the Oakland Athletics - RHP Felix Hernandez, RHP Taijuan Walker and RHP Hisashi Iwakuma - is not set in stone. ... The Mariners send RHP Chris Young to the mound Tuesday to face RHP Phil Hughes of the Twins.
