Countdown to Triple Crown: Triple try alibis
NEW YORK (AP) --- There have been 30 horses who came into the Belmont Stakes with a chance to win the Triple Crown. Eleven succeeded in sweeping the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont, and 19 came up short in the final leg. While we're waiting to see how Triple Crown hopeful I'll Have Another fares in his bid Saturday, here's a look at some of those who just missed, and the alibis:
The Calumet Farm bay colt finished second to Cavan by 5½ lengths after running the final quarter-mile with a broken bone in his right front ankle.
A scrawny, unattractive little colt was poised to make another thrilling stretch run to victory, but when jockey Johnny Sellers asked for more, Carry Back "spit the bit" — a racing term meaning he simply didn't feel like running anymore. He finished seventh behind 65-1 long shot Sherluck.
The great jockey Bill Hartack was criticized by many for moving too late in the stretch in losing to Arts and Letters. It was Majestic Prince's first loss in 10 starts.
Considered a cinch to give racing its fourth Triple Crown winner in the 1970s, the Bid stepped on a safety pin in his stall the morning of the race. He finished third behind Coastal after young jockey Ron Franklin gunned Bid to the lead and the colt faded in the stretch.
SILVER CHARM (1997) Continued...
After reeling in rival Free House with an eighth of a mile to go, Silver Charm was on his way to immortality. But with 75 yards to go, jockey Gary Stevens saw another horse out of the corner of his eye. It was Touch Gold, and Silver Charm didn't see him either until 10 jumps from the wire. By then, it was too late.
A year after trainer Bob Baffert had his heart broken by Silver Charm, another of his horses — Real Quiet — took a run at greatness. But jockey Kent Desormeaux was criticized for making his move too early, and by the time Real Quiet was a furlong from the finish at Belmont, he began staggering home. Victory Gallop, runner-up in the Derby and Preakness, was bearing down and the two hit the wire together. After several agonizing minutes, the photo went against Real Quiet.
Trainer D. Wayne Lukas' Triple Crown quest ended with a quarter mile to go, when Charismatic fractured two bones in his left front leg but still finished third behind 29-1 long shot Lemon Drop Kid.
Baffert has had some tough luck chasing the Triple Crown and his front-running speedster was done in early — he stumbled out of the starting gate and finished eighth behind 70-1 long shot Sarava.
After fighting off strong challenges from Rock Hard Ten and Eddington along the backstretch, Smarty Jones and jockey Stewart Elliott opened a 3½-length lead into the stretch. But the early duels proved to be Smarty's undoing. He tired in the stretch and was caught in the final 70 yards by 36-1 long shot Birdstone.

Prince of Wales, Highgate
FancyaPint?'s review...
The Flask seems to get all the attention round these parts, though we're not complaining as it usually means more space in this one. The Prince of Wales' olde worlde interior may not be as rambling as The Flask's, but it's certainly on the right side of cosy. Plenty of beers on tap and the menu is of Thai and Laos origin - and there's the promise of a good Sunday Roast too. The sort of villagey pub you'd expect in this villagey part of London, it's a fine local with a well-loved feel to the place. The Tuesday quiz night, which had been a regular feature for twenty years, is so popular there it warranted the publication of a book a couple of years back. To top it off, a small terrace at the back opens out onto where the old ponds used to be: shame they're not still there, though if they were the pub would be almost too good to be true. All you have to do is overlook the gaggle of regulars who perpetually prop up the tiny bar, but steadfastly refuse to accommodate any sort of view of the pumps or give you space to pay.

How to find the Prince of Wales pub
Rather sneakily, Highgate tube is a fair walk from Highgate Village. It should take about 15 mins to get from one to the other. Leave Highgate tube by the 'car park' exit so you're on the Archway Road. Cross the road and walk up Jacksons Lane till it meets Southwood Lane. Keep on Southwood Lane until you reach Highgate High Street. The pub is across the road from you. Alternatively walk (or catch the bus) up Highgate Hill from Archway. The pub is at the top of the hill in the heart of the village on the left, before the roundabout.

Give an example satisfying the following conditions: give out a sequence of random variables defined on a probability space, and a sub sigma algebra: the sequence converges almost surely to a limit and it is also uniformly integrable, but the sequence of the conditional expectation of the random variable sequence on the sub sigma algebra does not converges almost surely to the limit, which is the conditional expectation of the limit of the random variable sequence on the sub sigma algebra.

Consider independent random variables $X_n, Y_n, n\in\mathbb N$, such that $\mathbb P(X_n = 1) = 1-\mathbb P(X_n = 0) = 1/n$, $\mathbb P(Y_n = n) = 1-\mathbb P(Y_n = 0) = 1/n$. Set $Z_n = X_nY_n$. Then, $Z_n$ is uniformly integrable and $Z_n\to 0$ as $n\to\infty$ almost surely, by Borel-Cantelli Lemma. However, set ${\cal A} = \sigma(X_n:n\in\mathbb N)$. Then $\mathbb E(Z_n\mid{\cal A}) = X_n\mathbb E(Y_n\mid {\cal A}) = X_n$, which converges to 0 in $L^1$ but not almost surely. |

In one of the more unexpected turns that my week could have taken, I spent the morning at the Disney Channel's headquarters in Burbank watching Creative Commons chair Joi Ito suggest ways that Disney-ABC could embrace a progressive attitude toward copyright and its alternatives. The room was packed with a full spectrum of Disney employees, including lawyers, managers, technologists, marketers and creatives, with others conferenced in from Disney offices as far away as Seattle. The concept of Creative Commons was entirely new to some, while others confessed to having downloaded CC licensed music for personal use. When Eric Faden's all-Disney mashup A Fair(y) Use Tale was mentioned, heads nodded all around the room (even though it was mis-identified as "that Lawrence Lessig video"). Overall, the reception was positive and welcoming, as Joi explained why Disney should view Creative Commons as neither communism nor anarchy, but a sound business model for engaging fan communities and the potentials of user generated content. He also offered to send lawyers and technologists from CC to meet with their counterparts at Disney to see what kind of partnership might be possible. An all-Creative Commons channel as part of the Disney-ABC network? Disney content released under CC licenses to encourage fan remixes? I'm sure stranger things have happened, but I can't think of any right now.
Wow! What an incredible morning. Fight on!
can't really say anything more than to confirm Kellee's thoughts… the mind almost hurts conceiving of possibilities, alterations and departures… so, so interesting and great!

Things to do Cala n Blanes
Cala n Blanes
Situated on Menorca's rugged West coast, Cala n Blanes is a lively holiday resort by Menorcan standards. It has almost completely merged with neighbouring Cala n Forcat increasing the overall size of the resort and all that it has to offer.
Most of the beaches along this coast are very small coves, however, Cala n Blanes has the advantage of a gorgeous, palm tree lined, sandy beach that is clean and safe for both adults and children. You are sure to enjoy this exotic island get away with its family friendly facilities. The warm Mediterranean Sea is generally calm and perfect for a relaxing swim.
For more adventurous past times, there is some fantastic diving all along the islands West coast and you will find dive schools and centres in Cala n Blanes that would be happy to help with either lessons, equipment hire or dive tours. There are also many other activities such as tennis and sailing to keep you entertained during your stay.
Restaurants & Nightlife
You will be spoilt for choice when choosing how to spend your evenings in Cala n Blanes. The nightlife is lively with an abundance of nightclubs and bars. There are plenty of restaurants that cater for a complete range of tastes and budgets. For British style cuisine or fast food, the choices are ample, but should you desire a more authentic Menorcan restaurant then you may want to venture a little further away from the actual resort of Cala n Blanes. You will find some lovely traditional restaurants in nearby Ciudadela.
If you wish to explore a little further afield then why not visit the beautiful city of Ciudadela with excellent shops and sites. Should you be on holiday at the end of June then Ciudadela celebrates the Fiesta de Sant Joan on 23rd – 24th June which is reputed to be the most spectacular fiesta on the island. For some family fun, the Aqua Centre Water Park is near to Cala n Blanes and is clean and excellent value although maybe not quite as good for older children.

Committee member Gil Navarro proposed a "do not support" resolution for Gonzales in March, but the proposal failed on a 14-13 vote on Thursday evening, said Ron Wall, committee chairman.
The committee did, however, decide it wouldn't endorse either Gonzales, a former Fontana councilwoman, or her opponent, community organizer Silvia Marroquin, also of Fontana and also a Democrat, for the 5th District supervisorial seat because neither met the minimum
threshold the committee has set for an endorsement, Wall said.Elective county offices are nonpartisan.
Wall said committee resolutions require only a majority vote, and endorsements for an incumbent require a minimum 50percent of the vote and 60 percent for a challenger.
Gonzales, who has been endorsed by the committee previously, said Friday it has the right to support or not support whomever it wants.
"I will not subscribe to a political party. I belong to the party of the people," Gonzales said. "I refuse to be put into a box and told what to do and how to do it. I don't follow political parties and I do what I believe is best in every situation."
The proposed resolution cited several examples of Gonzales' endorsement of Republicans over the years, including Fontana Mayor Acquanetta Warren, Fontana Councilman Michael Tahan and Postmus, also a former Board of Supervisors chairman.
A campaign mailer submitted to the committee showed Gonzales standing aside a smiling Postmus during his campaign for assessor in 2006. The catch phrase reads "Supervisor Bill Postmus endorsed by respected Democrats" and includes a quote from Gonzales: "I work side-by-side with Bill Postmus.... He
5th District county supervisor
Postmus was implicated in corruption scandals involving the Assessor's Office and the county's $102 million legal settlement with Rancho Cucamonga investor consortium Colonies Partners LP in November 2006.
He has pleaded guilty to multiple felony charges including conspiracy and misappropriation of public funds in exchange for testifying against other defendants in the case, including former Supervisor Paul Biane and developer Jeff Burum, a co-managing partner of Colonies Partners.
Gonzales said she attended Thursday night's committee meeting even though she knew she was going to be attacked.
"They just needed a whipping post. They've done it every single time," Gonzales said. "But there were people there who actually stood up for me...and that meant the world to me.
"It meant there are people who care about what government is supposed to be doing as opposed to what party is doing it, and that gave me a lot of hope."
As for her support of Postmus, Gonzales said she supported him because both he and Biane supported funding for her district that went toward special programs and projects for low-income residents.
As a politician, Gonzales said she often has to put party politics aside and work in her sphere of influence to get things accomplished. She said it is what her constituents expect of her.
"It is a shame," she said, "that it is preferable to be a good Democrat and be a poor representative of the people rather than to work hard and to find ways to deliver the services as effectively and as efficiently as possible, and have that be the qualifier for the integrity and the willingness to serve." The San Bernardino County Democratic Central Committee won't be endorsing the re-election bid of the lone Democrat on the Board of Supervisors, Chairwoman Josie Gonzales, citing her support for Republican candidates over the years, including former county Assessor Bill Postmus.

Keep Christmas in heart all year-round
Merry Christmas — I hope that your holidays are filled with many smiles, hugs, family, good food and much love.
Today I would like to share with you memories of giving and receiving in memory of children who have gone to live with the angels.
My memory never remembers a Christmas that there were no presents under our tree. My mother tells me, though, of the Christmas of 1959. Dad had gotten a job as fair manager of the Calaveras Frog Jump. We moved to Angels Camp in April and there had been the expenses of the move, four children and a salary of $600 a month.
Mom recalls: "There was no money, and we did not know how we would be able to put presents under the tree, let alone buy a tree." She says we went to midnight service at church, and Dad and Mom prayed the whole time that we were all young enough that Christmas morning could just be another morning.
When we arrived home, there was a fully decorated tree and presents under it for each of us. And each of our stockings was filled with fruit and candy. To this day Mom does not know who so generously gifted us that day. Not only were we gifted that Christmas, but my parents paid it forward and made it a Christmas habit to gift a family in need the same way each year.
I remember one Christmas when my children were all small — the youngest in preschool. A family we knew had fallen on hard times and Christmas was coming rapidly upon us. My son played with one of the boys and came home so concerned that no Christmas was happening at their house. I started talking with friends, and before I knew it, I had gifts for the family arriving at my house in abundance. From student councils to women's sorority, the gifts just kept coming. We had so much fun deciding who would get what gift and then wrapping them in beautiful paper.
I asked a young man to dress up as Santa and deliver the presents on Christmas Eve. Santa came to their home that night, and even though I did not see their faces, I know that those little boys were filled with joy and that Mom was forever grateful for the Christmas that almost didn't happen.
Last year I was told by a friend that it was going to be a Christmas tree or presents. Both could not be afforded. I arranged for a tree to be delivered and left in front of her house. You see, I do not want to be identified as the giver.
I also leave money at gas stations with attendants to use when someone arrives that has only a dollar for gas. Not only do I get rewards for giving, but now the gas attendant gets involved and gets to see the happiness comes from the person who is given that extra gas. And then I am gifted when I return to the station and that attendant tells me of who received the gas and their reaction.
And lastly I must tell of this one, because in this gifting we saw a person change before our eyes. I was at a restaurant with a group of women planning a community event. The waitress asked us if we knew any organization that might help her with a deposit, so that she could get into her own housing. She had been working for two years to get the money saved to live on her own, but had not anticipated the deposit. She had 72 hours to come up with the $150 or her name would be moved to the end of the list — and once again she would be waiting.
We gave her some ideas of where she might get assistance and then it just hit me. I grabbed my purse and pulled out some money. One of the ladies with me followed in act and our waitress was suddenly over halfway there. With tears of gratitude, she hugged and thanked us.
The next week we returned for more event planning and the waitress came to our table bursting with excitement. Not only was she able to get her whole deposit together, but she had found a second job and was enrolling in college. One good thing after another happened to her that week. See, our little gift that neither of us would even miss changed her life and opened her up for good.
Random acts of kindness are easy to do. They can be can be as simple as a compliment, a smile, showing interest in someone in the grocery line. Let that person with only two things in their basket go ahead of you. You can bake cookies and give to an elderly neighbor. Ask a teacher if you can come and read to her children or pay for the bulletin board decorations for a month. Pay for the car behind you when you go through the carwash.
A friend in Texas leaves money at the pharmacy to help parents pay for prescriptions for their sick children. My son, Brandon, told me that he bought a rawhide bone for a homeless man's dog the other day. Simple acts, no matter how small or how large, affect both you as the giver and who you gift to as the receiver.
There are families across the world who will be surrounded in sorrow and loss this holiday, but my heart is with those in Connecticut. Tragedy has struck their families. The world continues to pray and send support but speaking as a mother, I cannot even begin to imagine the pain and despair that they are enduring.
So my dear friends as you read this, I challenge you to honor those beautiful children and brave teachers and do an random act of kindness in their memory. I myself am caring their pictures and names with me. I will do an act of kindness in honor and memory of each one before the New Year begins.
Here are a few easy and tasty goodie recipes. Make a second batch and give to someone who does not cook or have family around this holiday. It can be the beginning of your random acts of kindness
Chocolate-Covered Pretzels
Melt your favorite chocolate in a microwave-safe small bowl. I like to microwave for one minute, stir, let set for a minute then do another minute. Repeat till chocolate is melted and smooth. Be careful because chocolate burns easily and once burned, it is useless. White chocolate will burn much easier so be aware. Dip pretzel sticks in the chocolate and lay on wax paper to dry. You can sprinkle with colored sugar, coat with baby M&Ms. Let your imagination be your guide.
Lemon pepper cornmeal cookie
Adapted from Bon Appetit
Makes 6 dozen cookies
The black pepper is not necessary, but it does add interest and a pleasant warmth in the mouth. I love these because you get sweet a fresh lemon taste then the heat and crunch of the pepper and cornmeal.
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
3/4 teaspoon fresh, coarsely ground black pepper (optional)
Pinch of salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup finely grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon of lemon extract or food grade lemon oil
2 large egg yolks
Whisk the flour, cornmeal, black pepper if using, and salt together in a medium bowl.
Beat the butter, sugar and zest in a medium bowl with an electric mixer, beginning on low speed and increasing to medium-high speed, until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks and beat to combine well. Reduce the speed to low, add the flour mixture, and beat on low speed just until blended; the dough will be crumbly.
Press the dough together with your hands and divide it in half. Place each half on a sheet of wax paper and form each piece into a 10-by-1-1/4-inch log. Smooth each log with dampened fingers. Chill the logs, wrapped in wax paper, for at least 3 hours, or until firm.
At least 25 minutes before baking, position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter 2 large nonstick baking sheets.
Cut each log into 1/4-inch-thick rounds and arrange the rounds 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake, 1 sheet at a time, for 10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and let cool.
Hershey Peanut Butter Blossoms
Adapted from Hershey's Chocolate Cookbook
About 4 dozen cookies
Peanut butter and chocolate were just made to be eaten together. Here is Hershey's recipe for their yummy cookies.
48 Hershey's Kisses milk chocolates
1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk (I use buttermilk)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Additional granulated sugar
Heat oven to 375°F. Remove wrappers from chocolates.
Beat shortening and peanut butter in large bowl until well blended. Add 1/3 cup granulated sugar and brown sugar; beat until fluffy. Add egg, milk and vanilla; beat well. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into peanut butter mixture.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in granulated sugar; place on ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Immediately press a chocolate into center of each cookie; cookie will crack around edges. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.

A scathing report from Human Rights Watch alleges Mexican officers are complicit in the disappearance of hundreds of Mexicans. Plus, the growing global organized crime operation of eco-trafficking. And attempts in Turkey to censor a John Steinbeck classic.
Losing a loved one is one thing. Having them taken away by men in government uniforms, never to be seen again, is quite another. That's what's happened to hundreds of Mexicans, according to a new report by Human Rights Watch. The report documents 249 cases over the last six years.
Among the hundreds of cases of missing Mexicans documented by a Human Rights Watch report is the one of the 10 missing hunters from Guanajuato. Two years after the group vanished while on a hunting trip, their families are still waiting for answers.
An Interpol operation has led to the arrest of nearly 200 people in one of the biggest raids on suspected illegal timber operations ever undertaken in Latin America.
Turkey is no stranger to TV and internet censorship. But recently, a controversy erupted over a call to censor a book on Turkey's recommended reading list for students. The book was John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men."
Photos have leaked onto the Internet that seem to show new designs for the uniforms worn by Turkish Airlines flight attendants. Some feel the outfits don't represent a modern, secular Turkey.
The Oscar Pistorius case continues to surprise. Thursday a veteran police detective was taken off the case when it was revealed there was a charge of attempted murder against him.

I officially hate AIRTEL !
Not only do they cheat you off your money, they do it in style. Most of the times they return your money but sometimes the ingenious people at the nodal officer's office come up with such stupid explanations, you feel like banging your head on the wall. Same thing happened to me.
I am on the Rs.98 per month GPRS 2G plan. All of a sudden I get a SMS that Rs.60 are now deducted from my account for 2G charges. This is ofcourse some other plan that would overlap with my Rs.98 plan. I write off a letter to the nodal officer directly since this has been happening to me for very long. Instead of helping me with the problem, the people there came up with an ingenious explanation (reproduced later for your viewing pleasure).
Basically they say I accessed internet using Airtel Live. Which is a baseless lie, I never opened Airtel Live. My phone just has APN settings which I havent modified in ages. Anyway I have decided to appeal to the apellate authority since this doesn't make any sense. Hopefully the people at the appellate authority will have better sense than those at the nodal officer.
Thank you for writing to airtel.
This has reference to your e-mail regarding balance depletion towards GPRS for your airtel Prepaid number xxxxxxxxxxx.There is a charge of Rs. 60/- for browsing Internet service through Airtel Live. Hence, we regret to inform you that charges are valid and waiver for the same could not be processed.
In order to avoid balance depletion, we request you to save the Mobile Office settings as default settings and delete the Airtel Live settings.Should you require any further online assistance, you may contact our 24×7 helpline at 12118 (Chargeable at 50 paisa for 3 minutes) from any alternate airtel number. While calling from other service providers, please dial 8790912118 (Chargeable as per the respective network charges).
We hope that we have been able to assist you suitably.
Please feel free to speak to our call center executive on 121 regarding any query/ request and 198 (Toll Free) for any complaints. You can also email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
You can get in touch with the Nodal Officer with your earlier request or complaint number if it's still unresolved.

East Stirling 2-6 Rangers: Gers extend Third Division lead
FOUR months down the line it's been a long time coming, but all those connected with the Ibrox side will no doubt be glad that the spectre of those uncomfortable early season away days has now seemingly been banished.
East Stirlingshire - Turner 40; Quinn 58
Rangers - McCulloch 12 pen, 83 pen; Little 38; Wallace 51; Kyle 63; Naismith 69
Nevertheless, despite the handsome margin of victory yesterday Ally McCoist's men still didn't entirely convince throughout this fluctuating encounter where an East Stirlingshire side reduced to ten men after 30 minutes
following the ordering off of Philipp Zufle gave as good as they got until they tired in the second half.
What made a real difference for the Ibrox side this time around was that they got their noses in front early on courtesy of a penalty by Lee McCulloch after Dean Shiels had been felled in the box by Sean Kelly. Events took a further twist in their favour when home midfielder Zufle received a straight red for a poor challenge on Kevin Kyle. They proceeded to capitalise on their advantage almost immediately when Andrew Little scored their second with a deflected shot that flew into the roof of the net.
Not for the first time this season, however, Rangers found themselves up against opponents who refused to go quietly with Kevin Turner stunning the visiting fans by pulling one back before half-time. Shire continued their spirited resistance after the break with another quick-fire response after Lee Wallace scored Rangers' third. Within a couple of minutes McCulloch sent Nathan Shepherd tumbling and Paul Quinn blasted home the penalty.
It took goals from Kyle and substitute Calum Naismith for Ally McCoist's men to finally reach the comfort zone.

Heifer does amazing work throughout the world, here are a few examples. The stories are searchable by continent or country.
Heifer Haiti staff hosted the Community Animal Health Worker (CAHW) Orientation Workshop in Les Cayes December 4-6, 2012. The goal of the workshop was to develop a community-based animal health care system in Haiti through a "training of trainers" methodology, where workshop participants learned basic health care applicable for all animal species so that they can use that knowledge to train animal health workers in the field. |
Nguyen Van Dau, a Heifer Vietnam community facilitator, is active, creative and enthusiastic. In trainings, Dau is always a center figure because he is experienced in working with the farmers and he does not hesitate to raise crucial issues related to project activities. This man embodies the spirit of enthusiastic giving. |
A Philippines Self-Help Group presented a song members composed at a recent Passing on the Gift® ceremony. |
Heifer's 12 Cornerstones for Just and Sustainable Development principles are being spread throughout Cambodia's Pursat province through high school presentations and implementation through projects. The Disability Development Services Program (DDSP), project partner of Heifer, hopes that spreading Heifer's principles of development with the students will educate them and help them to have better lives. |
See how Heifer families are working to care for the elderly who are left in need in their communities in the wake of urbanization. |

15 September 2011 - CHINA NOT TO SUPPORT A POTENTIALLY COSTLY HEGEMONIC PATH, NATO PARLIAMENTARIANS HEAR
China is committed to make a growing contribution to international peace and security in the coming years, but will only do so within its capabilities and limits. Still, the priorities for the Chinese leadership will remain its internal economic development and social and political stability. China therefore prefers to focus on supporting a multilateral, inclusive approach to solving international crises rather than pursuing a potentially costly hegemonic path. |
These were among the principal messages heard by a delegation from the NATO Parliamentary Assembly which visitedBeijingandShanghaion September 12-16, 2011. The delegation of 23 members of parliament from 12 NATO member states was led by Rainer Stinner (Germany) and Julio Miranda Calha (Portugal). Composed of the Political Committee's Sub-Committee on NATO Partnerships, and the Defence and Security Committee's Sub-Committee on Future Security and Defence Capabilities, the delegation engaged in dialogue with senior government and Communist Party officials, as well as non-governmental experts. A White Paper onChina's Peaceful Development, issued by the government the week before the visit took place, provided further context for the discussions. Chinese officials and analysts told delegates that contacts betweenChinaand NATO are increasing, yet remain hampered by the mixed reputation of theAllianceinChinaand the region. Host country representatives and members of the delegation agreed that continued and increased dialogue is desirable in order to improve mutual understanding. The relationship between NATO andChinais the subject of the General Report of the Assembly's Political Committee, which will be presented by Assen Agov (Bulgaria) at the upcoming Session inBucharest,Romania. Members also had the opportunity to visit the research and development division of telecommunications company Huawei, Inc, and to review military equipment, troops and training at the 6th Armored Division headquarters of the People's Liberation Army. A more detailed report on the visit will be available shortly. |

Much is made of the impact that natural disaster can have on the supply chain, but businesses in the manufacturing sector are also having to think more strategically about sourcing materials which are becoming ever more rare as we consume more. The British Geological Society has gone on record to state that 52 commonly used minerals are now classified as rare. More troubling still is that 27 of these can only be obtained from China.
Alarm bells ring for supply chain managers whenever their business is forced into a single channel as the margin for knock-on effects on production and stock level is nullified. Where China is the only supplier of elements critical to high tech product development, the best that a business can do is source a number of suppliers to provide fail-over in the event of a disaster. That or stockpile materials, driving up prices in the market and increasing costs through warehousing and the like.
Sourcing additional suppliers can be costly and inefficient, particularly where a high degree of integrated supply chain management between buyer and seller is required. Each new supplier requires significant investment for full onboarding, in both time and money. The provision of a hosted supply chain portal or method by which systems can communicate automatically with minimum onsite intervention can reduce many of these costs whilst delivering the benefits expected of an integrated system.
And although these mineral shortages are currently restricted to high tech electronics manufacturers, other materials are certain to become scarce, affecting the wider manufacturing sector as a whole, regardless of output. The conscientious supply chain manager will be not only scouting for alternate materials and providers, but planning for the capacity required to support and maintain the business relationship.
Does your current supply chain management system provide the flexibility required to add additional capacity as and when required? Can it communicate cross-border without major intervention? If not, perhaps you'd best give Celtrino a call to discuss their Smart Admin platform which can do all this and more.

My love of endurance sports developed slowly. In high school, I absolutely hated running. Avoided it at all costs.
In college, I ran off and on, never keeping track of distance or time. I was doing it purely for vanity.
The summer after I graduated from college in 2006, I was a room leader for Summer Beach Project with Campus Outreach in Myrtle Beach. I got back at the end of July and started looking for a job. To pass the days, I started running. I was incredibly out of running shape. I could make it a couple blocks before having to walk. I repeated that cycle (run until out of breath, walk to catch breath) over and over for 3 miles. Every day, I ran more and walked less. In a few weeks, I could run the whole thing.
The girls I was living with that year decided to run a 10-mile race. I thought that sounded like a great challenge so I joined them. I ran that race – my first-ever – that November in 1:38:41, an average 9:52 pace.
While I enjoyed that experience and continued to run, I didn't do another race until May 2008, when Travis and I ran the Colorado Half-Marathon in Fort Collins. Even though Travis is a lot faster runner than I am, he ran at my pace and we finished at 2:30:46, which was my Half Marathon PR until 4/15/12.
Soon after that, I ran the first leg of the Colfax Marathon relay, setting my PR for a 10K, 62:36.
Then I took another break from racing, until I was talked into doing a sprint triathlon by my friend D. I did two sprint triathlons in 2009 – Your Cause at a Mile High in July (1:23:40) and Oktoberfest in September (1:43:59). By that time, I was hooked on endurance sports.
In 2010, I worked for Your Cause Sports, a non-profit triathlon company. I worked at about 22 triathlons that summer so I didn't get to actually participate in any, but I did do two half-marathons: Heart and Sole in Boulder (2:33:50) and Malibu Half-Marathon (2:44:44). I had been planning on doing the full marathon in Malibu but had to drop down to the half due to IT band issues (not enough strength training and stretching!).
In 2011, I switched back to a regular office job, allowing me to compete in triathlons to my heart's content. I did 3 sprint triathlons and my first Olympic triathlon in Steamboat Springs.
Now, I am re-tackling my marathon dream by training for the Mayor's Marathon in Anchorage, AK, on June 23, 2012. My current race calendar and times are displayed on my blog's home page and links to all of my race recaps are below.
Read my race recaps:

So when should a person go that it would rain less?

June is generally the driest warm(ish) month. Trying to out smart the weather in Alaska, the Yukon and British Columbia is a fool's errand. July and August are as good a time as any.

I left New Mexico May 15 , not one bug bite and very little rain first of June
Driven-Arctic Circle
Driven Down - Yaviza - Darien Gap
Don't try to plan around the rain. I just returned from a ride June 21-July 3. We saw only 2 days that it did not rain. Just grab your Gore-Tex and go. Even the "dreaded" Dalton Highway in the rain was not nearly as bad a its reputation.

Pros: The watch is very nice. Metal strap and the body of the watch is very nice metal. The hands look great. It is well worn. Are analog, looks stylish. Skin and watch both execution only for 50 to 150 U.S. dollars. I am satisfied. Watches come in a beautiful box, suitable as a gift. I recommend

"I love these mini pies because I can serve several different types together and everyone can select their favorite. This mini apple pie uses Granny Smith apples. I bought the mini pie dishes online, and they are really fun!" — Lisawas

2 pastries for 9-inch single crust pies
3 cups diced Granny Smith apple
2 tablespoons instant tapioca
1/2 cup white sugar

Mini apples are great because they take less time to cook and cool!
These were so tasty! I made 2 changes to the recipe, though. I cut out the tapioca and added a crumb topping like on dutch apple pie. My husband loved them!!! No need for the tapioca in my opinion.

Cloud storage was supposed to be about centralising your data in one place, allowing you access from the myriad devices that you want to access it from. But over time it seems that this ideal is becoming more and more fragmented, as more and more products come with their own version of cloud storage built in.
This is exemplified by Windows 8 and its deep ties to Microsoft's Skydrive service. While it has been around for some time, both Windows 8 and Office 2013 are designed to integrate tightly with the service. To facilitate this Microsoft has announced that it is revamping Skydrive, with a new Metro Windows 8 style interface as well as applications for PCs, Macs and Android.
Given the aforementioned expectations that a cloud service is a place to access your data from multiple devices, this is a good thing. But it emphasises just how many different iterations of the same thing that we have to deal with on our devices.
In the PC&Tech Authority offices we use dropbox extensively. It's a great way to not only store personal data, but to share between members of the team. We also use Google docs a lot, which now means we are using Google Drive. Apple afficiandos in the office add iCloud to this list. Now simply because we have some test systems running Windows 8 we'll be incorporating Skydrive into our cloud portfolio.
That is three storage services at our disposal, all used in different ways but all effectively doing the same thing. We aren't even including the other, more transparent, cloud storage in our lives, things like Steamcloud, Evernote and Flickr.
Each time we find ourselves dragged into another services there is another set of Apps to worry about, another password to remember, and a few more seconds of confusion as we try and work out which file is where.
It now seems that the only way to get users for a cloud service is to tie it intrinsically into an important part of our technological lives. Why can't we use Dropbox as our go-to solution for storing everything, rather than needing to shove docs written in Google Apps onto Google Drive, and those done in Office onto Skydrive?
It is a situation that will undoubtedly continue to get worse and worse as time passes. Rather than centralise our digital existence, it seems that we are destined for a future in which it is smeared all over the internet, with little pockets of data rather than a single repository the reality of the cloud.

Product Reviews:
I crave good scissors, so I got these in place of the Gingher 4" curved embroidery scissors. Still not real thrilled - still would not have them if not for the 1/2 price sale at the store. They are just not very comfortable. I am hoping they will keep the smooth edge on the blades and the fine points on the tips, both of which I am pleased with, but I just don't get the price. Somehow Gingher is affiliated with Fiskars ~ what, just no orange handle ? A little more time honing the blade ? These scissors better make me some pretty quilts :)
back to productIf you have never tried these scissors, you are missing out. I do alot of quilting and these are the best I have ever owned. Do yourself a favor and purchase a pair, you wont be dissapointed.
back to productAt last a pair of scissors like Mom used to own. Handle very nicely and cut crisp edges.

text: TRIO programs are federal outreach programs to identify and serve students, first generation college students, and individuals with disabilities. A key TRIO Program, the Upward Bound program serves: high school students from low-income families; and high school students from families in which neither parent holds a bachelor's degree. The goal of Upward Bound is to increase the rate at which participants complete secondary education and enroll in and graduate from institutions of postsecondary education. Upward Bound supports academic instruction in mathematics, lab sciences, work study programs and education and counseling services. More than 840,000 students took advantage of TRIO programs last year, ranging from 6th grade through college graduation. Thirty-five percent of TRIO students are Whites, 35% are African-Americans, 19% are Hispanics, 4% are Native Americans, 3% are Asian-Americans, and 4% are listed as "Other," including multiracial students. More than 7,000 students with disabilities and approximately 6,000 U.S. veterans are currently enrolled in the TRIO programs. TRIO programs provide academic tutoring, personal counseling, mentoring, and financial guidance and other support for educational access and retention. As required by Congress two-thirds of the students accepted must come from incomes of at least 150 percent of the poverty line and neither parent attended college. AASCU also advocates for funding to the Ronald E. McNair Post-Baccalaureate Achievement Program through the TRIO programs in order to increase the number of undergraduate students who participate in advanced degree programs. Funding is used to encourage enrollment in advanced degree programs through mentoring, test preparation for the Graduate Record Exam (GRE), tutoring and assistance in applying for graduate school. GEAR UP (Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs) provides six-year grants to states and partnerships to provide services at high-poverty middle and high schools. GEAR UP grantees serve an entire cohort of students beginning no later than the seventh grade and follow the cohort through high school. GEAR UP funds are also used to provide college scholarships to low-income students. Upward Bound serves: high school students from low-income families; and high school students from families in which neither parent holds a bachelor's degree. GEAR UP funding has remained even in the proposed fiscal year 2011 (FY 11), FY 12, and FY 13 budgets. AASCU believes that growing our historically black colleges and universities is important for higher education. AASCU supports proposed FY 13 funding for HBCU's that would support 96 HBCU's. This includes $85 million in mandatory funding. AASCU also supports the Developing Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs) program which funds competitive grants to expand and enhance the academic quality, institutions management, fiscal stability. Title III and Title V funding provides support for institutions that serve large percentages of minority and disadvantaged students. This funding, which is awarded both competitively and by formula, provides educational opportunity and academic services for minority students. Funds can be used to plan, develop and implement activities that support faculty development, improvement of academic programs and student services.
