With Influencer's new Pinterest support, companies can enable customers to share a visual representation of products and services that is readily available to anyone who follows the customer's "pins" or who performs a relevant search on the category or description. Enabling customers to share via Pinterest also allows marketers to track what colors, shapes and words customers are drawn to and more likely to share.

2006 Hurricane Forecast Exceeds Average
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicts a "very active" 2006 north Atlantic hurricane season, though they say it shouldn't be as bad as 2005. "For the 2006 north Atlantic hurricane season, NOAA is predicting 13 to 16 named storms, with eight to 10 becoming hurricanes, of which four to six could become 'major' hurricanes of Category 3 strength or higher," added retired Navy Vice Adm. Conrad C. Lautenbacher, Ph.D., undersecretary of commerce for oceans and atmosphere and NOAA administrator. On average, the north Atlantic hurricane season produces 11 named storms, with six becoming hurricanes, including two major hurricanes. In 2005, the Atlantic hurricane season contained a record 28 storms, including 15 hurricanes. Seven of these hurricanes were considered "major," of which a record four hit the United States. ::2006 NOAA Full Report, ::Katrina Waste Stretches Around The World, ::Architecture for Humanity in aid of Katrina Victims

Establish Safe and Supportive School Environments
HIV prevention activities are more likely to have an impact if they take into account the context in which risk behaviors occur. For YMSM and other sexual minority students, this means addressing the challenges these young people face at school. A survey using a convenience sample of more than 7,000 middle and high school students across the United States found that, in the past year,
- Eight in 10 lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender students had been verbally harassed at school because of their sexual orientation.
- Six in 10 felt unsafe at school because of their sexual orientation.
- Almost a third skipped a day of school in the past month because they felt unsafe.14
For youth to thrive in their schools and communities, they need to feel socially, emotionally, and physically safe and supported. A positive school climate has been associated with decreased depression, suicidal feelings, substance use, and unexcused school absences among lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender students.15,16
Gay-straight alliances (GSAs) are one approach being used to create safe and welcoming school environments. Research has shown that in schools with support groups such as GSAs, lesbian, gay, and bisexual students were less likely to experience threats of violence, miss school because they felt unsafe, or attempt suicide than those in schools without such groups.1
Provide Professional Development for School Staff
School health professionals can benefit from training to help them understand the needs of lesbian, gay, and bisexual youth and shape behavioral health messages accordingly. During 2006-2011, CDC funded the American Psychological Association (APA) Healthy Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Students Project to help schools and youth-serving organizations improve health and mental health outcomes for sexual minority youth. APA created a training manual and offered science-based workshops for school counselors, nurses, psychologists, and social workers on how to effectively reach sexual minority students with HIV prevention messages and other health information. Many education agencies funded by CDC have formed their own training cadres to offer the workshop locally.
Implement School-Based HIV Prevention Policies, Practices, and Interventions
CDC funds state, territorial, tribal, and local education agencies to help schools implement policies and practices to reduce sexual risk behaviors. Recognizing that YMSM are a major risk group for HIV infection, a number of these agencies are taking action to address the needs of sexual minority youth. Examples of program activities include:
- Ensuring that health education curricula include prevention information relevant to sexual minority students.
- Providing training for district and school staff to help them understand the special concerns and needs of this population.
- Supporting schools in establishing GSAs or similar groups.
- Linking schools to community organizations that provide health and mental health services for lesbian, gay, and bisexual youth.
Specific program activities are described at www.cdc.gov/lgbthealth/youth.htm.
In 2011, CDC awarded funds to the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) and the Gay-Straight Alliance Network (GSAN) to assist CDC-funded public health and education agencies and community-based organizations in establishing policy and environmental changes to help schools and communities meet the health and mental health needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youth.
CDC also funds health departments and community organizations to promote the use of evidence-based HIV prevention interventions, many of which are geared toward YMSM and young people of color. Information about these interventions is available at www.cdc.gov/hiv/topics/research/prs/evidence-based-interventions.htm.
* In the 37 states and five U.S. dependent areas with confidential name-based reporting since at least January 2005.
** The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS) monitors health risk behaviors and the prevalence of obesity and asthma among youth and young adults. YRBSS includes a national school-based survey conducted by CDC and surveys conducted by state, territorial, and local education and health agencies and tribal governments. Information is available at www.cdc.gov/yrbs.
† Sexual minority students are defined as students who identify themselves as gay or lesbian, bisexual, or unsure of their sexual identity or who have had sexual contact with persons of the same sex or with both males and females.

Looks good, well made, easy to assemble. Our dog loves to be outdoors and he took to this bed right away.
Looks good, well made, easy to assemble. Our dog loves to be outdoors and he took to this bed right away.
We just ordered a second bed after our rescue puppy's legs kept growing until she outgrew the first one. We are still able to use the original one, but upgraded to the large one so she is more comfortable. She is a chewer and we can finally put her somewhere where she can't do any damage. Love that we could get a pretty color to make it blend in the living room and her name looks awesome on the bed. We are very happy customers.
We purchased two Kuarnda beds. One large for our labrador retriever,(she has a bad leg), and one small for our jack russell. Both LOVE their new beds. Color coordinated, sage covers complete the look so human family likes the style of the dog beds. Dogs beds are in the family room so dogs can be with us and have their own "sofa" to snuggle on as we also purchased new sofa's for the humans. :)
I happened upon these beds while doing a web search, and I am so glad I found Kuranda- our 9 year old lab loves this bed! I had been looking for a bed that was both durable and washable. The cover vacuums easily, and the bed looks like it will last forever, easily 5x longer than the typical foam-type beds I had been purchasing. The first night we had the bed, the dog did not get off of it to follow me into the bedroom until I had actually gotten into bed- he usually settles into the bedroom at the first sign that I'm headed there , ie turning off living room lights. After a week of use, I looked at my husband and asked if he thought another one for outside would be a good investment- our second is on the way! With the slipcover (in "cinnamon"), the bed is a lot more attractive than the other one we had.
I have a young Doberman(chewer) and a White Shepherd(shedder) and the XL fits them perfectly but I went for the XXL so they can choose to go solo or snuggle. Also I think the height is perfect for their sizes and didn't want anything shorter. Easy to assemble. So far the dogs love them and seem quite comfortable. Haven't had to wash, but after having orthepedic beds from Foster and Smith for years...these seem like they will be a cinch to clean and will not retain the smell and hold the hair that the F&S beds did. They are sharp looking too. Went with fleece covers (nicer and thicker than expected)for warmth in winter and will remove them for summer. New covers for my F&S beds were over $100 so replacing a fleece here and there will be cost effective. Nice and easy to vacuum under, trust me, with the Shepherd we are constantly vacuuming!!!
My dog loves the comfort of the bed. She can be found cuddled up in the bed whenever she is not underfoot! I love the look of the bed. This is far more attractive than the big dog pillow that I had been using. I found the bed easy to assemble with only a screwdriver and a small wrench.
We use this product primarily for training. It is durable, looks great and the puppies seem very comfortable on it.
My dog, Zoey, loves this bed. It's big enough for her to stretch out on. I really love that it's sturdy enough to support her weight. She's a big, 68 pound girl! I also love that with the cover, it blends with our bedroom decor and doesn't look like the typical dog bed. I'm so happy to have found your product and have already started spreading the word!
We bought two for our American Mastiff who will eventually be around 200 pounds. One for upstairs and one for down. These beds are PERFECT for the giant breed dogs. It helps keep them off hard floors and allows cool air to circulate around them. We opted for the breathable fabric and shorter legs, and the customer service was SUPERIOR!!! The new aluminum corners and frame add beauty to any modern/contemporary home decor. Even though we have the biggest size available, it doesn't appear to be an eye sore in our home. It's like our boy has his own [...] couch :)It would be nice to have a mobile version that breaks down and snaps together easy. With how big and DURABLE the ones we have are, it's not practical to take them apart for travel, but they are the best all around beds EVER for the home, outdoors, or kennels.

With regard to a pilgrim who is doing tamattu' and has completed his 'Umrah, and is waiting for Yawm al-Tarwiyah (8th Dhu'l-Hijjah) so that he can enter ihram for Hajj, is it permissible for him to do 'Umrah again? We have with us a person who claims that this is permissible for the one who has exited ihram, so long as he is waiting for Hajj. If that is permissible, does he have to offer a hadiy (sacrifice) for 'each 'Umrah, based on the verse in which Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): "whosoever performs the Umrah in the months of Hajj, before (performing) the Hajj, (i.e. Hajj-at-Tamattu and Al-Qiran), he must slaughter a Hady such as he can afford" [al-Baqarah 2:196]?.
It is permissible for the pilgrim doing tamattu', who has completed his 'Umrah and is staying in Makkah waiting for Hajj, to do 'Umrah during this period, especially if he leaves Makkah to go to Madeenah and the like, then comes back to Makkah. And that does not mean that he has to offer more than one sacrifice, because what is meant in the verse is that the one who does Hajj tamattu' has to offer a sacrifice. Even if he does 'Umrah repeatedly, he is not going to do Hajj more than once, so he does not have to offer any more than one sacrifice.
But is it prescribed for one who is staying in Makkah and not leaving to repeat 'Umrah as many people do nowadays, by going out to at-Tan'eem to enter ihram for 'Umrah?
There is a difference of opinion concerning that among the scholars. Some of them say that there is a concession allowing that, and others say that it is makrooh and regard it as being contrary to the actions of the salaf (early generations).
See the answers to questions no. 49897 and 111501.
And Allah knows best.

Just a quick note to say thanks to John, Kim and Thomas for their thorough reviews of our Home Brew disc.
The lads and I are currently in Taiwan, having just taken second place in our first international competition against several other groups we thought were sensational, so we feel like our stage act is getting to a good international standard.
For you guys, who have your fingers right on the pulse of the international recording scene, to end up giving HB a 4/5, it really gives us a feeling that we can get up to scratch in the studio if we pull our fingers out and put some more thought into our arrangements and production on the next CD. It's all a learning process eh?
So yeah, cheers, we appreciate the time and advice you guys have put in. Beers are on us if you ever come by Melbourne.

Dec 15, 2010, 12:31 EST
ARLINGTON, Va., Dec. 15, 2010 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- BNA Tax Management Portfolio, Family and Household Transactions, No. 513, brings together analyses of the income tax provisions that affect transactions that are generated by maintaining a family and operating a household.

Some info about FINNISH
"Gutsy" is a fairly close translation that uses the same metaphor , as the word derives from sisus, which means "interior" and "entrails, guts". A concept closely related to sisu is grit, which shares some of its denoting elements with sisu, save for "stress management" and passion for a long-term goal. Sisu may have an element of passion but it is not always present, unlike in the case of grit as defined by Dr. Angela Duckworth.

Rail Systems
Rail Systems and Workstation Cranes
Enclosed rail forms the backbone of any material handling system. Hercules SLR offers five enclosed rail profiles in lightweight aluminum and durable steel.
The enclosed rail design reduces the accumulation of dirt and grime on the internal running surfaces, thus reducing rolling effort. These enclosed track profiles feature lightweight, precision running surfaces with less than 1% rolling resistance.
All the accessories, such as hanger kits, end trucks, trolleys, safety cables, and end stops, are provided to construct a complete ceiling supported or freestanding workstation crane system. The entire system is easily bolted together and requires no welding to assemble.
Ceiling Supported Workstation Cranes
Ingersoll Rand offers ceiling supported workstation cranes with spans up to 30 ft (9 m) and capacities up to 3000 lb (1360 kg). Ceiling supported workstation cranes utilize rugged steel or lightweight aluminum enclosed track rail in one of five profiles. Ingersoll Rand's premium articulating bridge crane design reduces the force required to position the load.
Free Standing Workstation Cranes
Ingersoll Rand offers both standard and custom free standing workstation cranes. Standard systems have the option of 10 ft (3 m), 12 ft (3.7 m), or 14 ft (4.3 m) underclearance, and range in size from small 10 ft (3 m) runway systems with 5 ft (1.5 m) bridges and 500 lb (227 kg) capacity to large 105 ft (32 m) runway systems with 21 ft (6 m) bridges and 2000 lb (907 kg) capacity. These systems allow for the placement of workstation rail systems independent of existing overhead structural steel.
Monorail Systems
Ingersoll Rand Monorail systems utilize the same profiles and components as workstation cranes. Monorails are typically used for single-axis transfer applications in small areas. Curved rail sections are available for navigating obstructions.
Air & Electrification Supply
Ingersoll-Rand offers both air and electrical power supply kits. Air supply kits are available in both 3/8 and ½. Kits are available with a filter/regulator for use with Balancers and manipulator systems. We also supply air supply kits without filter/regulator for use with oil-based pneumatic systems such as hoists and tractor drives. The air supply assembly keeps coil hose and electrical supply in place and allows for the complete utilization of the bridge and runway system. The electrical supply kits are available to supplement virtually any type of electrical equipment. Insul-8 electrification systems are available
Rail Profiles
Our aluminum rail profiles are extruded from 6063-T6 and anodized for a smooth, clean, corrosive-free surface. The aluminum rail is lightweight, and available in 3 profiles (ZRAT, ZRA1, ZRA2) up to spans of 30 ft (9 m). Our steel rail profiles are rolled from 9 guage, A569 hot-rolled steel and powder coated for appearance and a corrosive-free surface. The steel rail is rugged and economical, and available in 2 profiles (ZRS2, ZRS3) in spans up to 24 ft (7 m). For increased spans and capacities our ZRS2, ZRS3 and ZRA2 profiles are available with strongbacking.
Rail System Components
Ingersoll Rand Rail Systems consist of hanger kits, rails, end stops, splice kits, end trucks, and trolleys. These components can be configured to meet a vast array of application needs. This flexibility means you don't have to sacrifice functionality, which is common with pre-packaged workstation cranes.

There is no worldwide standard electricity mains voltage or frequency, so it is important to ensure that electrical appliances from other countries are able to be used safely in New Zealand.
Electricity throughout New Zealand is supplied at a nominal voltage of 230 volts and 50 hertz, although most hotels and motels provide 110 volt AC sockets (rated at 20 watts) for electric razors only.
Unless an electrical appliance or item has a multi-voltage option, it is necessary to use an adapter or converter for all other equipment.
We have a large range of electrical converters available for purchase at the Napier i-SITE, Marine Parade.
Power outlets in New Zealand use only a flat three or two-pin plug, depending on whether an earth connection is fitted.

Default environment
The operating system on all Darwin nodes currently is Scientific Linux 6.7 (a rebuild of Redhat Enterprise Linux 6, aka RHEL6).
The user environment is set up using environment modules. By default, the module default-impi is loaded automatically during login to a Westmere/Nehalem or Sandy Bridge node. These modules autoload a collection of other modules which will configure the environment to allow compilation of applications and submission of jobs to the cluster, by providing access to the required utilities and recommended development and MPI software.
It is possible to change the environment which is loaded upon login, by editing the shell initialisation file ~/.bashrc. Note that this will effect all future login sessions, and all batch jobs not yet started. Since some modules are required for proper operation of the account, caution is needed before removing any autoloaded modules. Changes to the shell initialisation file will take effect during the next login or at the creation of the next shell. At any time one can check the currently loaded modules via:
module list
which currently will produce the following output by default on a login-sand (Sandy Bridge) login node:
Currently Loaded Modulefiles: 1) dot 4) turbovnc/1.1 7) global 10) intel/mkl/10.3.10.319 2) scheduler 5) vgl/2.3.1/64 8) intel/cce/126.96.36.1999 11) default-impi 3) java/jdk1.7.0_21 6) intel/impi/4.1.3.045 9) intel/fce/184.108.40.2069
From this list it is possible to see, for example, that the version of the Intel compiler one will receive by invoking icc is version 22.214.171.1249 (check this with which icc).
Please note that modules work by setting environment variables such as PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Therefore if you need to modify these variables directly it is essential to retain the original values to avoid breaking loaded modules (and potentially rendering essential software ''not found'') - e.g. do
export PATH=$PATH:/home/abc123/custom_bin_directory export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/abc123/custom_lib_directory
and not
export PATH=/home/abc123/custom_bin_directory export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/abc123/custom_lib_directory
On a complex computer system, on which it is necessary to make available a wide choice of software packages in multiple versions, it can be quite difficult to set up the user environment so as to always find the required executables and libraries. (This is particularly true where different implementations or versions use the same names for files). Environment modules provide a way to selectively activate and deactivate modifications to the user environment which allow particular packages and versions to be found.
The basic command to use is module:
module (no arguments) print usage instructions avail or av list available software modules whatis as above with brief descriptions load <modulename> add a module to your environment unload <modulename> remove a module purge remove all modules
Enter the command module avail to see the entire collection of currently available modules.
Some modules refer to administrative software and are not of interest to users, e.g. cluster-tools is the ClusterVision management and control suite; also some modules load other modules. It is possible to make use of various versions of Intel compiler and parallel libraries by explicitly loading some of the above modules. By default the login environment loads several modules required for the normal operation of the account: e.g. the default versions of the Intel compilers and Intel Math Kernel Library, batch scheduling system and the recommended MPI for the particular flavour of compute node hardware. One can list the modules actually loaded by issuing the command module list.
In some cases, alternative modules may exist with sandybridge in their name. These are the best choices for use on the Sandy Bridge nodes of Darwin, but they may not work on the Westmere or Tesla nodes (as they may contain instructions not supported by Westmere/Nehalem CPUs).
For historical reasons there may also be modules with nehalem in their name. These were originally created to provide Westmere/Nehalem-optimised versions of software using Intel MPI distinguished from versions intended to run on the old Woodcrest nodes (which had an older CPU type and a different recommended MPI). Since the Woodcrests have been decommissioned the need for a separate category of nehalem modules has disappeared (nehalem has become the default for new builds); please check that there is not a more recent version of the same module without the `nehalem' label before using one of these modules. In some cases the same build of the software may be referenced in both locations as the Woodcrest-specific variants are being cleared away.
Since the home directory is shared with the slave nodes, the same default environment is inherited when a user's job commences via the queueing system. It is good practice to explicitly set up the module state in the submission script to remove ambiguity - the default template scripts under /usr/local/Cluster-Docs/Torque/ contain a section dealing with this.
Making your own modules
It is possible to create new modules and add them to your environment. For example, after installing an application in your own filespace, create a personal module directory called~/privatemodules (recall that ~ is UNIX shorthand for your home directory). Then enable this directory by adding the following line to your ~/.bashrc file (this will take effect for future shells, issue the same command on the command line to affect the current shell):
module load use.own
Now module files created under ~/privatemodules will be recognised as modules.
The contents of a module file look like this (see the default module directory/usr/local/Cluster-Config/modulefiles for more examples):
#%Module -*- tcl -*- ## ## modulefile ## proc ModulesHelp { } { puts stderr "\tAdds Intel C/C++ compilers (11.0.081) to your environment," } module-whatis "adds Intel C/C++ compilers (11.0.081) to your environment" set root /usr/local/Cluster-Apps/intel/cce/11.0.081 prepend-path PATH $root/bin/intel64 prepend-path MANPATH $root/man prepend-path LD_LIBRARY_PATH $root/lib/intel64 ...
Typically, one would set at least PATH, MANPATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to pick up the appropriate application directories. For more information, please load the modules module (module load modules), and refer to the module and modulefile man pages (i.e. man moduleand man modulefile).
A good approach is to create a subdirectory within the modules directory for each separate application and to place the new module in that directory, named to reflect the version number of the application. For example the name of the Intel C compiler module file above is/usr/local/Cluster-Config/modulefiles/intel/cce/11.0.081. The command module load intel/ccewill automatically try to load the largest version number it finds under /usr/local/Cluster-Config/modulefiles/intel/cce (NB highest in lexical ordering, which is often but not necessarily the same as numerical ordering: e.g. 8 is higher than 1 and therefore also higher than 10).

At first I really did think all I was going to get read this month was The Twelve, but then I got sick and it really upped my books read percentage. So at least there's that.
Let's see. This is one of those books that was incredibly well written, and it was about such an interesting time in history, but it just did not hold my attention and it took me FOREVER to read. I don't know, this book just felt smarter than me.
I'm glad I read it but I would never describe it as a page turner. I did have to write down these two quotes, which really struck me.
"The rustle of unseen activity was everywhere, like the scratching of insects in darkness. Kafka's The Castle came to mind, a book I had no read but that fell into that category of literature that culture reads on your behalf and deposits somewhere inside you."
"When I decided that we were learning about politics not in order to re-imagine the world but the opposite – to continue justifying why it was this way and could be no other – I changed to art history and spend my days touring galleries and reading catalogues."
137. The Twelve. Eh. I like The Passage better, but it did what it was supposed to do. While I was reading it was ALL IN, but when it was over, it didn't really stick with me.
138. Where'd You Go, Bernadette?
This had a weird tone, again, like "Gone, Girl" and "Shine, Shine, Shine", but it wasn't as oppressive as those books for me. It was fine, but I didn't love it. I think if you live in Seattle, though, you should probably be required to read it.
139. Monument 14
This was reasonably entertaining, but some of the logistics didn't hang together. It's about a bunch of kids trapped in a giant big box store and how they survive in a sort of apocalypse I just couldn't get past the fact that they couldn't use the running water but they cooked three meals a day that they allegedly cleaned up with wet wipes. Yeah, no.
140. The People of Forever Are Not Afraid. You know how when you read about people's dreams they aren't interesting because there's no connection to reality? That's how this book was for me. I wanted to love it, but it was too nebulous and random and wandering for me.
141. Tigers In Red Weather. Ugh. I made it 5/6th's of the way through this book and then I just wanted everyone to GET BENT and I quit.
Fifty Shades Freed. I couldn't do it. The whole "Oh, no, I made my husband mad and I am in trouble" business gave me the stabby feelings.
142. Live By Night. This is the first of the "big new fall/winter" books I think I've read and it bodes well. I found it highly enjoyable. If you like reading about the mob, you will enjoy this, I think. It's violent, but it's very entertaining.
143. The Cutting Season. Meh. For a mystery, this was not at all terrifying. I think there was too much telling and not enough showing.
Book of the Month? Live By Night.

hm, only on CNBC news this morning, they said that the virus could become more dangerous as it mutates... and that it is mutating fast
The Texas cases are especially puzzling. One of the California cases — the 10-year-old boy — traveled to Texas early this month, but that was to Dallas, about 270 miles northeast of San Antonio. He did not travel to the San Antonio area, Schuchat said.
Phase 4 is characterized by verified human-to-human transmission of an animal or human-animal influenza reassortant virus able to cause "community-level outbreaks." The ability to cause sustained disease outbreaks in a community marks a significant upwards shift in the risk for a pandemic. Any country that suspects or has verified such an event should urgently consult with WHO so that the situation can be jointly assessed and a decision made by the affected country if implementation of a rapid pandemic containment operation is warranted. Phase 4 indicates a significant increase in risk of a pandemic but does not necessarily mean that a pandemic is a forgone conclusion.

Raleigh, N.C. — The state's health director said Monday afternoon that there are suspected cases of swine flu in North Carolina, but declined to say how many cases or where they were located.
Dr. Jeffrey Engel said Monday evening that officials are involuntarily isolating patients who may have the virus. He declined to specifically say how many suspected cases were in the state, noting that the number is always changing, and he declined to say where they were located.
"We're working very closely with providers, and they are investigating cases on a daily basis," Engel said. "It's a very fluid situation and there will be suspect cases. People travel all the time."

I was disturbed by a story of strange goings on in the desert. A little over a year ago, it seems, a new industrial facility sprang up on the edge of town. It was in a remote industrial zone and appeared to be a bus depot. The new enterprise was surrounded by an imposing security fence and bore no outward signs identifying its services. However, it soon became apparent that the compound was in the business of outfitting a fleet of prison buses. Thirty or so secondhand city buses were being reconfigured with prison bars in the windows .....The new Wackenhut operation is shrouded in mystery. It has been running its fleet of empty prison buses night and day, apparently logging miles on a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) contract. Multiple buses can be seen driving all over town and even on remote desert back roads. Oddly, except for the driver and one escort guard seated in front, these buses are always empty......
Recently, a passerby observed what appeared to be a training operation there. In what seemed to be strange activity for 10:30 PM on a Saturday night, the depot yard was fully illuminated, the entire fleet of buses was up and running, and drivers and guards were scrambling around the yard. The question is, what were they training for? .....
........Among the few who have noticed, one theory is that the prison bus depot is simply infrastructure for border security. But if so, where are the illegal aliens? Why are these buses always empty?.........
.........There is another interesting piece to this puzzle. On the desolate plain between Phoenix and Tucson is a tiny town called Florence, Arizona, which features a population consisting largely of prisoners. For decades, Florence has been the home of two of the largest county and federal prisons in the state; and in 2007, a vast new DHS prison was built there as well. Like the Wackenhut buses, this shiny new facility, which literally disappears into the horizon, has gone unannounced and unnoticed by the general public. A new facility for imprisoning illegal aliens?
Al Martin, a retired naval intelligence officer and former contributor to the Presidential Council of Economic Advisors, has linked the remilitarization of FEMA to the civil unrest anticipated along with economic collapse.

Imtiaz Hussain, Head of Audit UK, Ireland, BNY Mellon.
How is the work to improve conduct and culture impacting financial services firms?
Doing what's right has always been the expectation for financial institutions. The recent financial crisis reminded us that not all of us were doing right by our customers and other stakeholders, and poor conduct in financial services was blamed. The renewed focus on culture and conduct now means firms have to embed conduct risk in their existing risk management framework. Firms that seek to extract value out of conduct risk management are defining conduct risk strategy, establishing conduct risk appetite and developing appropriate metrics to ensure that conduct agenda is considered throughout the customer lifecycle. Equally, the board and senior management are becoming more vocal on the conduct topic and setting the tone for right conduct, culture and behaviour. In the UK, the Senior Managers Regime further heightened the urgency to ensure conduct risk management permeates throughout financial services institutions.
What are the best ways to encourage staff to engage with the conduct agenda in their day-to-day activities?
Setting the tone from the top is key, as employees can look up to set of values and behaviours expected from top management. Also, a safe environment for people to speak up and voice concerns, and even rewarding such behaviours, encourage proactive management of conduct risk. All employees should be encouraged to embrace and demonstrate the concept of good customer outcome. One way to make this concept go viral in an organisation is story telling. It is through story telling that employees can contextualise what good and bad look like.
What are the keys to delivering high quality products and services, and a great user experience, while maintaining a robust conduct agenda?
Delivering better client experience and conduct risk management complement each other. As I mentioned previously, the key to delighting customers and giving them better experiences is to put the customer at the centre of what firms do. From product development to marketing and selling, and then servicing clients, employees should be able to identify conduct risk in the value chain and mitigate any risks associated with conduct.
How is the ever-increasing level of digitisation impacting conduct risk management?
Digitisation is driving change in the financial services business model, but it is also changing customer behavior and transforming customer experience. Digitisation certainly has an impact on a firm's conduct risk profile and it is vital for organisations to manage the risks associated with this impact. This is precisely the reason why a firm should strive to establish a robust and resilient conduct risk management framework that is understood and bought in by staff at all levels.
What are the most powerful ways that firms can improve their conduct agendas?
For me, the two most powerful catalysts for improving the conduct risk agenda are first story telling (so people at all levels understand and live and breathe the conduct agenda), and second empowering them with tools and methods for better management of conduct risk. These include training staff regularly on conduct, establishing a robust conduct risk management framework, and encouraging conduct risk dialogue by incorporating the conduct agenda into existing policies and procedures, etc. It is important to recognise that, whilst setting tone at the top is vital, tone in the middle and tone at the bottom is absolutely critical for bringing the conduct agenda to life. Embedding conduct risk management will require everybody in the firm.

Choosing Fair Trade products
2 Comments »
Nice article with comprehensive listing of sources. If I may add my first and only organic Fair Trade fruit preserves in the nation. We make all low sugar formulas with lots of wine and herb infusions. You can buy gifts boxes or individual products on our site. I'm also a former board member of the Domestic Fair Trade Association and my farm/facility has been part of a pilot test for domestic standards.
I also make organic Fair Trade preserves under the Fair Harvest brand. They can be purchased at many food co-ops in the midwest.

Out Foxed
If I was Denver's front office (attn. John Elway), I would fire John Fox after that debacle last night. He didn't try to win the game. His poor decision to go for a 52 yard FG near the end of the 1st half was the least of his errors.
With less than 2 minutes to go and a 7 point lead, Denver faced 3rd & 7 on their own 47 yard line. Baltimore was out of timeouts. All Denver had to do was throw for a 1st down and they would have clinched victory in their playoff game. Instead, John Fox chose to run the ball up the middle, call a time out, and then punt. Baltimore responded by tying the game up with a touchdown. Fox bypassed a chance to clinch the game. But his ineptitude didn't end there.
With a tie score and 31 seconds remaining in a win or go home playoff game, and having one of the best QB's in the history of the game and 2 timeouts remaining, why would you kneel down and take your chances in OT instead of trying to win the game in regulation? John Fox again passed up a chance to try to win the game.
The facts are the facts, Denver went in as the AFC's #1 seed and Superbowl favorite, with their big time free agent QB, and went 1 and done. John Fox did not do his job despite being handed the resources needed to succeed. By the way Denver, how did replacing Tim Tebow, who won a playoff game for Denver last season, with Peyton Manning work out for you?

Want to volunteer, but don't want to pay high "voluntourism" fees? This week we uncover a great opportunity to volunteer in Chile, with a government-backed project to put native- and proficient-English speakers into Chilean classrooms. You can travel Chile in 2012 without having to find more money than paying for the plane tickets. In this interview we speak with Dave Hanegraaff from PROGRAMA INGLÉS ABRE PUERTAS, or English Opens Doors -- he tells his story of volunteering in Chile, and also how you can get involved in 2012 and beyond. For more details, see http://indietravelpodcast.com/chile/volunteer-chile-english-opens-doors/

With holiday travel season approaching, we talk about staying sane while travelling over the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year holiday time. Family can be stressful enough, but the huge numbers of people doing "vacation travel" over late November, December and early January definitely adds lots of stress to family events. And nobody needs more of that.

It's been some time since we've highlighted the best of the travel gear we are carrying. While there are thousands of new product releases each year, there's only so much stuff you can fit into a carry-on sized bag, so everything we carry is carefully considered in terms of both utility and weight. We cover: * Electronics * Clothing * Packs and bags * Equipment and other stuff * Things we don't carry We also have a new-look website at the same address: http://indietravelpodcast.com/ Please send in your feedback.

Paraguay travel advice from independent travellers who have just been. We cover visas, Ciudad del Este, Encarnacion, the Jesuit ruins and the capital of Paraguay, Asuncion. Our world fact book claims that Paraguay and Bolivia have a very similar GDP, but our experience of Paraguay was that it was much more affluent and faster-growing than its andean neighbour. There seems to be more indigent people living in Asuncion than the other cities we visited, and there are large areas of farmland that provide little more than sustenance living for its workers ... so maybe those stats are true. All in all, we felt very safe travelling in Paraguay, even when walking the streets in the late evening or on long bus trips. While we've heard reports of some scams, we encountered none at all. We never felt threatened, hassled or oversold because we were foreigners ... which was a nice contrast with our time in Bolivia. Paraguay's a great destination, with lots more to see. There are wonderful natural sites, an intriguing and accessible modern history, and is very well priced. I really don't know why more people don't visit, so plan to go soon before tourism really picks up.

text: Joseph Motto, 93, of Orland Park, the former owner of Motto's Foods in the southwest suburbs, died of congestive heart failure in Manor Care Palos West in Palos Heights on Saturday, Aug. 19. In 1928, Mr. Motto opened a butcher shop in the South Shore neighborhood, and as his business grew, he expanded to a full-service supermarket and competed with national food chains. In the 1950s, he moved to a bigger building in Midlothian and opened a second store in Tinley Park. "He loved his work. He still cut meat when he was 78 years old," said his son, Robert. In 1981, he was named Illinois Retailer of the Year. Mr. Motto also invested in vacation property for his family and as a business. In 1938, he bought some land along the shores of Paw Paw Lake in Michigan and opened Motto's Resort, where he took pride in a blueberry crop that he cultivated over the years, said his son. The resort is now operated by his daughter, Frances Cuddie. He is also survived by his wife, Mary; nine grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren. Mass will be said at 9:15 a.m. Tuesday in St. Julie Billiart Catholic Church, 7399 W. 159th St., Tinley Park.

My wife and I will leaving on our first trip to Africa in less than a week. When I suggested the trip last year, she was underwhelmed but has come around to being pretty excited. We'll both be shooting primarily with a Canon 7D Mark II and a 100-400 IS II lens but will also have wide angle and macro lenses. I also bought a Canon 5D IV for a backup camera in case we encounter a problem with our 7D'S.
We're scheduled to visit the following locations:
1. Timbavati PGReserve, Kruger Park, South Africa - 2 days
2. Kapama PGReserve, Kruger Park, South Africa - 2 days
3. Sheldrick +Giraffe Center
4. Arusha, Ngorongoro Crater Conservancy, Tanzania - 2 days
5. Serengeti National Park, Tanzania (335 kms from Arusha) - 2 days
6. Masai Mara National Reserve, Kenya - 2 days
I would appreciate any suggestions or advice anyone can provide on the places we will be visiting and/or staying.
We have the Canon 1.4 Extenders to be used with the Canon 100-400, but after seeing photos of how close the animals sometimes are to the vehicles, I'm wondering if they will even be needed. Does anyone have experience with using extenders in this situation?
We were bringing a third camera body only as a backup, but I'm wondering if it might make sense to put my 24-70 lens on it and have it available for anything large that gets too close to the vehicle to effectively use the 100-400. I've read cautions that changing lenses in the field should not usually be done in Africa because of the dust. Have any of you done this on a safari (used two bodies simultaneously) and is it feasible or would it be too awkward in the vehicles?
Anyway, hope any of you folks who have already made this trip will be able to give me some suggestions or advice.

Thriving, artsy Tulsa is more than just OK

TULSA, Okla. — As an Oklahoma transplant — a native New Englander who moved here for love — I've had fun getting to know the Sooner State. I also host the occasional out-of-town visitor, so I'm always on the hunt for colorful history, interesting art, quirky shopping and a great meal. I have found it all, plus some surprises, in Oklahoma's second-largest city: Tulsa.

A FIVE-year-old girl was among three people who escaped injury after their car was hit by a vehicle being followed by police.
The black Ford Sierra carrying a number of teenagers had failed to stop after being spotted being driven erratically by an unmarked police car in Anfield.
It drove off the wrong way down one way Tinsley Street and collided with a car being driven by Liverpool councillor Steve Radford.
With him was fellow councillor Hazel Williams and her five-years-old grand daughter.
He said: "It was terrifying the car was coming right at us.
"I managed to turn my car onto the pavement and avoided a head on collision. We were very lucky."
As police gave chase to the three teenagers they were yelled at by youths who congregated on the street corner.
Liberal councillor Mr Radford added: "Instead of backing the police for trying to stop these yobbos started hurling abuse at them.
"Do they not realise the idiots driving that car could have knocked down and killed anyone of them?"
Mr Radford, Mrs Williams and the little girl were left shaken but unharmed by the incident.
Inspector Phil Anderson of Merseyside Police confirmed plain clothes officers were patrolling the Anfield area in an unmarked police vehicle.
He said: "The officers were overtaken by a Ford Sierra which was being driven erratically with two male and one female occupant.
"The officers tried to signal to the driver to pull over but he made off at high speed down a one way street the wrong way.
"Assistance was called for and the officers followed the car within the speed limit.
"The Ford Sierra collided with another vehicle on Tinsley Street.
"The occupants of the Ford Sierra made off and were chased on foot by officers and the female was detained and arrested.
"Local youths congregated at the scene and began abusing officers - one youth was arrested for public order.
"Investigations into the ownership of the Ford Sierra are on-going."

Rob Spon liked the fight he got from his Halifax Rainmen even when they lost to the Moncton Miracles on Sunday.
On Wednesday, the Rainmen got rewarded for their perseverance.
Spon's team trailed early again, but came back to beat the Summerside Storm 118-113 in National Basketball League of Canada play in Summerside, P.E.I.
Halifax, 8-9, ended a four-game losing streak. Summerside is 9-9 in the tight Atlantic Division.
Joey Haywood and Melvin Goins each had 24 points to lead the Rainmen on offence.
Tyrone Levett added 18 points, Quinnel Brown 16, Antoine Tisby 14 points and Quincy Okolie 10.
"The same nine who fought so hard in the Moncton game came back and gave another good effort today," said Spon. "Everybody on this team just contributed and did a great job. It was a great team win."
Halifax trailed 35-12 after the first quarter against Moncton, only to come back to force overtime. They lost 116-106.
Summerside started hot with Greg Plummer scoring 14 points in the first five minutes. The Storm led 18-4.
But the Rainmen clawed back after a timeout and only trailed 29-23 at the end of the first quarter. Plummer had 17, but Goins collected eight points, three assists and three rebounds.
Halifax's Tyrone Richards had back-to-back three-pointers in the second quarter as the Rainmen trailed 57-55 at the half.
Levett's triple to start the third quarter and two blocks off from the bench from Okolie contributed to a 29-17 third quarter for the Rainmen.
Another three for Plummer, who had a game-high seven treys, in the fourth quarter had the Storm within three points. But the Rainmen closed it out with a strong attack in the paint.
Goins, the starting point guard, had 10 assists for a double-double. Haywood started as the No. 2 guard, but backed up Goins at the point.
Spon said it was the team's ability to get the ball down low that made a big difference.
"We did a very good job of getting the ball down in the blocks for mismatches to Levett, Tisby and Brown," said Spon.
He said the current Rainmen have a winning vibe.
"I like this group. I like how they are playing hard and playing team defence and having fun. That's the main thing. And our spacing is so good on offence. There's nobody bickering about who is getting the ball."
Plummer led all scorers with 34 points.
Antonio Ballard had 16 points and 15 rebounds and Omari Johnson with 15 points and 10 boards. Johnson played his first game for Summerside.
Halifax plays at Saint John on Friday before returning home to play Montreal on Sunday afternoon.
