For a patron, passing through a turnstile is a milestone. It is the transition point from being outside the site to being on the inside. They separate those at the event from those not at the event. Studies have shown that at sports and entertainment arenas, people generally have a positive reaction to turnstiles in part because of this physical and intangible symbolism.
Some facilities have discovered a way to make their purchase of turnstiles pay for itself. By selling the placement of a company's logos or advertising messages and slogans on the arms of your turnstiles, you can recoup your investment in turnstiles quickly. Advertisers like the fact that every patron sees these turnstile arm advertisments as they enter the site.

Do you like baking? Do you like geeky late-eighties Nintendo memorabilia? If you answered yes to both questions, this freshly-launched IndieGoGo project will be right up your alley.
The Power Mitt, as its creator calls it, is a fully-functional heat-resistant silicone oven mitt that's designed to look like a Nintendo Power Glove. For those of you who might've been to young to experience the Power Glove firsthand during its heyday, allow me to explain. Power Glove was essentially a new type of controller designed to be worn on your hand, and when it came out in 1989, pretty much nobody liked it thanks to its sloppy controls. But I'll be damned if it didn't look awesome. The thing looked like somebody skinned a robot, and even though it was a failure commercially, it'll always hold a special place in gaming history.
The Power Glove has inspired dozens of geeky spinoff products, but this one definitely takes the cake (…get it? It's an oven mitt!). Power Mitt is built to fit anyone with a 4-inch-wide or smaller palm, so unless you're a descendant of Andre the Giant or Shaq, it'll probably fit on your hands. Somewhat unsurprisingly, this thing was designed by the same guy who runs a Omni Consumer Products — an entertainment licensing and product development company that takes fictional products from popular movies and makes them real. He's the guy who gave the world Fight Club soap bars, Brawndo the Thirst Mutilator, and Sex Panther cologne. Clearly, this man is a factory of great ideas.
The project is currently raising funds for its first production run on IndieGoGo, and will only be made if it gathers $18,000 in pledges. It's already well on its way toward reaching that goal though, and if it continues to gather pledges at the same pace, it'll be funded with plenty of time to spare. You can lock one down for a pledge of just 39 bucks, or get one for each hand for $69. Find out more here.

A few readers have written in response a previous story about Rep. Ritch Workman's efforts to repeal several state laws, including Florida's 22-year ban on dwarf-tossing in bars.
Bob Whittemore, an Arizona man born with a type of dwarfism called Achondroplasia, is one of those readers outraged by the idea. He emailed his concerns to us, Workman, the Washington Post and Visit Orlando officials. Excerpts of his essay are below.
Have you ever been out on a beautiful day at a shopping mall with your spouse or significant other, when, from out of nowhere, someone with a video camera jumps in front of you, giggling, and beings to video you?I have.
Have you ever, after a productive day of business, walked into a bar with your colleagues and customers to celebrate the day, and are suddenly grabbed by a total stranger who wants to pick you up and throw you as far as he can, because it would be a "hoot"?
I have.
The incident with the drunken clown who wanted to toss me happened back in the 1980's, in an upscale bar in Southern Florida. Yes, I said "upscale". You don't have to be an uneducated hick to do stupid things; copious quantities of alcohol makes many people stupid – from Ivy League professionals to those who will proudly tell you that they attend church every Sunday.
The incident with the video camera happened last year, and was fortunately cut short by an observant police officer, who discretely stepped in and took the young man aside and inquired why he was harassing us.
What is it about me that would provoke these strange incidents?
I am a 55-year-old man who has been married for 30 years. I am an award-winning writer, video producer, and event planner. I bring meetings to cities that infuse millions into the local economy. I am an occasional Presbyterian who regularly votes independent and likes to support social causes. Oh, and I was born with a birth defect: I have a condition called Achondroplasia, a type of dwarfism.
In case you're still wondering, the common denominator that triggered these incidents is not the fact that I am a Presbyterian.
Fortunately, shortly after the incident in the Florida bar where the drunk tried to "toss me," Florida passed a law making the highly-publicized crowd-drawing sports bar "sport" of "dwarf tossing" illegal.
Since then, I can truthfully say that life has gotten better. In fact, life is great – I am truly blessed. Employers measure me by my results, not size, architects are making the world more accessible, actors with dwarfism are getting dramatic roles because of their acting talent, not their "strange appearance," and the world seems to be getting a tad more compassionate.
To quote Paula Golladay, who works with an association for people who have had a limb or limbs amputated, "All we ask for is respect. Nothing more, no special privileges, no pandering by the media."
Speaking of pandering, it seems that some people want to go back in time. On October 3, 2011, Florida Representative Ritch Workman introduced HB 4063, legislation that would repeal a state ban on dwarf tossing.
Really? I mean, seriously?
Workman explained, "As much as I despise the idea of dwarf-tossing, it shouldn't be illegal. It should be up to the little person whether they want to be hired to do that, and up to the bar whether they want to employ such people, and up to the patrons to whether they want to go there or not."
Baloney. This flawed logic could be used to justify all sorts of illegal or immoral behavior, and it doesn't ring true. Rather, it smells of a cheap headline-grabbing stunt, in the same spirit of say-something-shocking to get ahead Rep. Joe Wilson (R-South Carolina) "You lie!" and Ben Quayle (R-Arizona) "Barack Obama is the worst president in history."
This political stunt, if allowed to move forward, will end up with people getting seriously hurt. Many people who are born with dwarfism have serious spinal issues. I recently had back surgery on six levels on my back, due to severe spinal stenosis. I bounced back after surgery, due to talented doctors and physical therapists, and now travel more than 75,000 miles per year for business, but if one drunken idiot inspired by Representative Workman's bill grabs me a decides to toss me, I could easily be paralyzed for life.
Oddly enough, I am in Florida this week on business – my third business trip to Florida this year. And, while I am here, I had planned to check out a few of the resorts in the Orlando area for a 2,000 room night conference in 2013 that will bring much needed hotel, rental car, airport and other sales taxes to the Sunshine State, not to mention the direct revenue to restaurants and entertainment venues.
The other three cities that are competing for this two-year chunk of business are in states that don't have dehumanizing and dangerous bills such as Mr. Workman's.
He continues:
Representative Workman's bill dehumanizes and trivializes a segment of our population, making it socially acceptable to treat people as inferior members of our society. Worse, it encourages a truly frightening group of people who thrive on hate. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, the number of active hate groups in the United States has risen a staggering 54% since 2000. People who are born with a difference are often victims of this hate – Google the words "midget" and "hate" to see what I mean, and you will also see where some of the videos and photos of people with disabilities that are taken surreptitiously (or not) end up.
While most in our society are advancing in the areas of inclusion and diversity, people who spread hate disguised as politics have encouraged a disturbing minority into negative behavior.
When you make a joke of a population segment, Representative Workman, you empower others to do the same. With power comes responsibility – as an elected official, you should never forget about the boats in your wake.

What we do?
Israel has become known as the "Start-up Nation;" however, only 15% of the population actually benefits from Israel's technology revolution. We believe that the power of innovation should be ignited across Israel so that 100% of the population can enjoy its rewards. We call it building the "Ground-up Nation." PresenTense Israel is the leading organization providing infrastructure and backbone support to strengthen Israeli society through entrepreneurship. Since 2007 we have been asking the question: what can we do to make entrepreneurship more accessible and how can we channel entrepreneurship to focus on improving society? We opened the first co-working hub in Israel, launched the first social venture accelerator, the first accelerator for Arab entrepreneurs in Israel, the first accelerator for Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) women and the first accelerator in the world focused on innovative solutions for people with disabilities. The impact has been the launch of over 350 businesses, tech startups and social ventures – that are growing local economies through job growth, enriching community life through volunteer engagement and solving core society problems as our ventures impact tens of thousands of lives. During the next phase of our development we will continue to work with partners to identify and fill in gaps in the entrepreneurial ecosystem. Join us today, in the PresenTense!

Hiring Made Simple: Operators Offer Tips on Hiring Quality Personnel
Recruiting, interviewing and background checks help find employees.
Operators who pay attention to the three major steps of the hiring process—recruiting, interviewing and background checks—make the job of hiring the right employees a simple one.
For most foodservice operators, finding employees in the current economy has not been particularly difficult in recent years.
"Our biggest challenge in recent years has not been recruiting and hiring, but rather sustaining employees," says Duane Whitfield, human resources administrator for the Jefferson County (Colo.) School District, who explains that the economy and an unemployment rate of around 9% have simplified the search process.
However, as Whitfield and others will testify, that doesn't mean finding qualified employees who will last has become any easier. In fact, a glut of candidates can mean more headaches for operators who have to weed through more resumes, conduct more interviews and make more background checks in order to find just the right personnel.
But the process should never be short-circuited, operators say, or else the fallout could make the situation worse. From the initial search process through the reference checks, hiring qualified people remains a laborious, but necessary, process.
Recruiting: Ideally, the hiring process should begin before an employment ad is even written. Rich Turnbull, associate director, University Housing & Dining, at Oregon State University in Corvallis, says the first step is considering exactly what you will be searching for.
"If the position is an existing one, it is always a good idea to think about what the organization needs," says Turnbull. "It may be that the position requires the same knowledge, skills and abilities as before the position was vacated, but I always try to recruit someone with a higher skill set than the previous job holder. That is one of the ways our organization can continue to get better. So, if we are looking for a higher skill set, then the position description and minimum and desired qualifications all need to be reviewed and updated.
"If the position is a new position, then what are the short term and long term goals for this position, and what is the skill-set necessary for someone to be successful in this new role?" he adds. "It is critically important for each new employee to have very clear expectations about their job and a detailed orientation plan in order to create the necessary pathways to success. During recruitment I think it is important for applicants to understand their initial role in the organization but also what future opportunities may exist."
Once the goals have been established, they must be communicated to prospective employees through the search ads. Turnbull says advertisements must be carefully worded in order to attract the right kind of candidates.
"Having an understanding of what might motivate someone with outstanding skills to apply for the vacancy is important," he says. "So the actual recruitment language used is important. There is a difference between,
'Oregon State University Residential Dining is recruiting for a Cook 1 position' and 'Oregon State University seeks a cook experienced in the art of flame broiling for a high volume exhibition-style restaurant with open kitchen'. My guess is that the applicant pool would be different based on the above language."
David McDonald, senior business director for Housing & Dining at Rice University in Houston, notes that at his university, prospective employees learn quickly that experience or education alone won't be enough to land them a spot.
"In regards to hiring—chefs particularly—we have steadily raised the bar so that education and experience in combination has become our baseline," says McDonald. "So, instead of experience in lieu of education, or education in lieu of experience, we now require both."
Tim Dietzler, director of Dining Services at Villanova University, notes that understanding what the employer can and can't provide is essential.
"For our staff positions, we have always worked to hire for attitude, knowing we can train staff. It is difficult to train for and adopt a positive attitude. Hire for attitude and train for skill."
Dave Reeves, director of nutrition services at Elmhurst Hospital, Elmhurst, Ill., calls the hiring process "an art and not necessarily a science."
"It is imperative that you not only look at the applicants' skills to perform the duties of their position, but also to make sure they will fit into the culture of your organization," Reeves explains. "Peer interviews, background checks and behavioral interviewing are all important techniques to help find the right candidate. However, I find the face-to-face interview to be the most important and reliable means to find the best candidate."
The interview: In that vein, Dietzler says, it is important not to cut corners in the interview process.
"For exempt staff positions, performing an in depth interview that covers the career of the candidate—from education to their first job to current status—is essential," he explains. "For each job they held we ask what they liked and what they did not like about the job, who their supervisor was and how their work ethic would be described by their supervisor."
Jefferson County's Whitfield considers the interview to be the primary screening tool.
"The important thing here is to use a screening tool that will serve to reveal the candidates' real-life experiences as demonstrated on their resumes and application materials," he says. "Don't just assume that resumes are accurate and take them at face value. With so many applicants out there you need a way to screen good candidates.
"An effective interview, when administered correctly, accomplishes two goals," he adds. "First, it weeds out the candidate who doesn't have the technical job skills from the one who does. Second, an effective interview is the second opportunity you have to determine whether or not the candidate's skills align with the goals of the organization. Don't take the interview process lightly. Create well thought-out questions, thoroughly understand your organization and spend time building the interview process around the needs of the organization."
At Rice University, potential employees go through a 'cultural interview,' to assess their ability to 'fit in.'
"Rice is a unique school, full of tradition and unique cultures and sub-cultures," says McDonald. "When interviewing chefs, we base our interviews as 60% how well they fit the culture and 40% culinary skill. The committee for the cultural interview is made up of people from my staff, staff from other departments and sometimes students, depending on the position."
Rush University Medical Center in Chicago takes a similar approach to interviewing.
"We have tried to incorporate more behavioral and situational questioning in the interview process to get a better sense of how someone might function in our environment," says Mary Gregoire, head of the Food and Nutrition Department at Rush. "We also have expanded our department orientation to include a part day on guest service for all our staff, to emphasize its importance regardless of the position."
The interview should be set up to invite candidates to learn about their prospective employer at the same time they themselves are being assessed, notes OSU's Turnbull. In that regard, making candidates comfortable is essential.
"One of the things I learned from one of my very first interviews out of college was to let applicants know that the interview is an opportunity for the applicant to get to know as much as possible about Oregon State University and the job they are interested in," he explains. "I know that this just seems intuitive, but by changing the focus from the applicant needing to sell themselves, to the organization having to sell itself, tends to make applicants more at ease and in control. The result is often a more relaxed and more informative interview."
Turnbull adds that he tries to accomplish this by starting the interview in a non-interview setting, taking time to tour the facility and talk about the history, mission and goals of the organization.
"Asking open-ended questions in the interview is essential," Turnbull notes. "Almost all positions require good communication skills, so asking questions that require an applicant to describe their experience is a good way to get them to talk and, at the same time give you a glimpse into their communication ability. Interview questions need to get to the answers of at least these three things: does the person have the knowledge, skills and abilities to do the job; does the person have the desire to do the job; and will this person be an effective team member?"
Background checks: "Do conduct reference checks," adds Whitfield. "Sometimes reference checks give you just enough information to make a sound 'hire or do not hire' decision. Don't assume your hiring process is failproof. Don't overlook this important step and remember that even the best laid plans can and will fail."
Villanova's Dietzler says his team seeks active references during the process. For example, during the interview, when candidates are asked how their former bosses would describe them, the interviewer will suggest they call their former supervisors to set up a reference call.
"We have implemented 360-degree reference checks," says Elmhurst's Reeves. "The process requires the prospective hire to provide five references—two managers and three peers). The prospective hire signs a release and then the e-mails are generated to their references. The replies are anonymous; we focus on skills that will make the applicant successful in the position. This has been one of the most beneficial tools I have seen to evolve in the hiring process."
Expect the unexpected: Even when operators think the hiring process is foolproof, glitches can occur, providing valuable lessons for future searches.
"Mistakes happen, and when they occur you're left with controlling the damage," Whitfield says. "Learn from them and move on. I once hired a kitchen manager for one of our most prestigious high schools. The hiring timeline was very short; we needed someone now. I conducted a thorough screening, the candidate interviewed well and the references came back clear, so when I hired him in record time I was very proud of my accomplishment. He quit one week later without notice and without a replacement. What I learned is that good hiring takes time. Don't cut corners, do develop a plan and stick to it."
OSU's Turnbull agrees. "Never settle," he says. "Only hire someone who can take you to the next level. Fill in with temps if you have to, but when you make the hire, make it for the long term."
"When we lose a staff member, it often places pressure on managers to hire quickly to fill the vacancy," Reeves notes. "Hiring to just to fill a position is a mistake that can occur when managers do not have an adequate contingency plan. We have used temporary, part-time staff, and overtime to temporarily fill vacancies, to ensure that we hire the right staff members."
Finally, Turnbull says, expect to make mistakes in the hiring process.
"I've asked the wrong questions, failed to adequately prepare for the interview, failed to help set the applicant up for success, advertised in the wrong media, said the wrong things in the ads, paid too much for an ad that ran too long, failed to have the right people on the search committee, didn't listen to the job references because I liked the way the candidate interviewed, couldn't connect with references but hired the person anyway, convinced myself that just because the person didn't communicate well that the job didn't require a lot of communication anyway, and a host of other mistakes," he says. "The good thing is that we all learn from our mistakes as well as from our successes. So the good news is that we now have a pretty amazing staff and we continue to get better at finding and hiring talented employees."

By Stewart A. Ritter Senior Vice President – Investments for Wells Fargo Advisor
It's a staggering and sobering – statistic: More than half of Americans surveyed say they have less than $25,000 saved for retirement. Even those with greater resources can't be sure they'll live the comfortable retirement they envisioned.
The good news? If you feel the need to give your nest egg a serious boost, it's not too late. The earlier you start catching up, the easier it may be for you to reach your retirement goals – and answer questions about how you'll fund that dream retirement.
Maximize Your Savings
The most obvious way to get a jump on your savings is to put as much money as you can into your retirement accounts. If your employer has a 401 (k) plan, contribute the maximum the IRS allows: $16,500 for 2010. By maximizing your contribution, you take advantage of any matching contributions your employer offers and put your dollars to work in tax-deferred investments, amplifying your potential annual gains.
Are you more than 50 years old? If so, the IRS will let you put an additional $5,500 for 2010 into your 401 (k) to "catch up," and an additional $1,000 in your IRA. While you may not get a match on your extra 401 (k) contribution. you'll still receive tax deferral on any investment gains more than you'd likely get in a savings account or investing on your own and paying annual capital gains taxes.
Set Goals. Be Aggressive
Once you've maximized your savings, take a long, hard look at your household budget and investment portfolio.
The aforementioned contributions to your retirement accounts should appear as line items on your budget along with your mortgage payment and other essentials like food, clothing and utilities. Before budgeting for large leisure expenses, consider diverting some of these funds to an additional savings or investment account. True, they won't be matched or tax-deferred, but they still translate to extra money down the road.
Although people approaching retirement usually take on more conservative investment strategies, you should consider resisting this outdated tendency. Because today's investors have longer life expectancies than previous generations, they generally have a longer investment horizon and can consider using a moderately aggressive investment strategy into their 50s and 60s.
Create Other Income and Investment Sources
Catching up can also mean increasing your income and utilizing your assets. Some ideas include:
• A new job. Are you worth more than you're making? You may want to clean up your resume and start interviewing to bring in additional income and better retirement benefits.
• Starting a side business. A business to complement your "day job" can yield additional income for direct investment or retirement savings. What's more, you may be able to deduct as much as a quarter of your self-employed income on your taxes.
• Maximize your real estate. Do you own a home at the beach or in the mountains that you rent out seasonally? If so, be sure you are getting the most out of your investment properties. Often a few minor improvements can increase the weekly or monthly rates you can command – more money you can save.
Whether you just need to pad your savings for a little extra security or you are well behind in your retirement savings plan, you have options to help make up for lost time. You may be able to catch up with proper guidance, aggressive saving and appropriate investing strategies. Speak to your financial advisor about how you can get started.

This is a great album to start with because it pictures U.S stamps that are easy to find and buy. Pages illustrated on one side only, high quality paper, every stamp identified with Scott numbers. Includes history of each stamp. Affordable - same design as Mystic's American Heirloom album.
America's best-selling album. Pictures most every U.S. postage stamp issued 1847-2016, over 5,000 stamps with Scott numbers. Pages filled with stamp history. This album is a great value!
Similar to standard American Heirloom album but includes mounts that are already attached to pages, saving you time and effort. Sturdier pages than American Heirloom. Includes Scott numbers and stamp history. This volume is for stamps issued 1935-1966, over 600 stamps. Higher quality album than Heirloom.
Essays are designs for stamp vignettes, stamp borders, or both combined, that were never approved and used in the final printing of a stamp. Even though a design is finally adopted with only slight modifications, it is still an "essay". To attain the status of a proof, a proposed design, or essay, must be exactly like the issued stamp for which it was submitted.
All U.S. stamps were made by private bank note companies from 1847 to 1894. Essays and printing bids were submitted by those firms. As early as 1851, the U.S. Post Office Department established a policy of advertising for stamp proposals to be accompanied by essays, or examples of the stamps to be furnished. After the bids were opened, an Expert Committee was asked to rule on the designs, colors and paper.

Business Situation
Aiming to become a more global company, Nippon Express had focused on growing its international sales revenue to 40 percent through the expansion to 481 locations across 40 countries. However, since the Asian market has rapidly expanded in recent years, the emphasis has now shifted to a more regional focus. As shipping companies are easily affected by client sales and conditions of the world economy, Nippon Express decided to create a new media platform called "Fun! JAPAN". As a goods market, its goal is to increase exchange between Japan and other Asian nations, while simultaneously supporting domestic clients.
"We implemented the Sitecore Experience Platform on Microsoft Azure to quickly pass important, high-level tasks through our PDCA (plan–do–check–act) methodology. The overwhelming support of consumers for our sites in such a short time frame is a testament to the efficacy and speed of PDCA."
Nippon Express decided to adopt the Sitecore Experience Platform (SEP) on Microsoft Azure for this new venture. The deciding factors were the simplicity of content management, which is the primary operation, the abundant set of features and the intuitive interface. Using SEP the company is able to roll out three to five articles a day on every site it manages. SEP makes this easy with WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editing. This allows Nippon Express' operations manager, who isn't versed in HTML or other programming languages, to create and edit articles effortlessly. Mobile device optimization is as easy as setting the layout. This allows the company to manage all its content in one place, streamlining the process.
Nippon Express has established separate websites by country for Indonesia, Malaysia and others, which focus on disseminating information on topics such as Japanese cuisine, technology and travel. It is difficult for one company to offer such broad information, update it frequently and offer numerous features, all while attracting customers. However, SEP enabled the company to make a site that is attractive for both Japanese sponsors and Asian consumers.

|Wishful Thinking
From Michelle Herrald - 19 Apr 2008
I already knew of this cruelty but forced myself to watch all those vulgar clips and I'm still shaking. I love animals so much. I wish I could go and make those horrible excuses for people suffer just as bad, but I know I would get killed myself if I went over there because I wouldn't be able to control myself.
I am a vegetarian ... how couldn't I be? Those people just can't even have a conscience.
I am still crying and screaming inside. I wish that God would see there was enough of us so we could take control. I could go on and on but I'll do that in places where people need to realize that everything doesn't come off a supermarket shelf and maybe open some peoples' eyes to what a disgusting barbaric world is out there.
Michelle Herrald
Dear Michelle:
Thank you for writing back.
You have come to the right conclusion. It doesn't work to vent your anger
in violent ways. Violence only promotes more violence. The key to getting to
these people is to embarrass them publicly by turning public opinion against
them. We need to politely and peacefully turn public opinion against the
animal exploiters.
We also pray and question why God doesn't bring an end to all this suffering, now. The only answer is that we (those of us with empathy) have been given that task, just as we are told in Romans 8:18-23.
In the Love of the Lord,
Frank and Mary

My name is Elisha Chirchir and I live in the United States. Welcome to Simple Developer where I share various tutorials on how to program. Here, I write about software programming and mostly what I have learned over the years after 'Googling' my way through piles of tutorials online and learning new skills.
NOTE TO RECRUITERS: I am not currently looking for work. Thank you!
Now, let me tell you a little bit about myself!
Occupation: A Happy Software Developer at Essential Elements LLC, USA!
Description: Work in a team of software developers building software solutions that impact people's lives everyday. This involves creating web and mobile applications using modern technologies including Android and Cloud Computing among others.
I am a software developer who wears many hats. I build web applications, Joomla CMS and most recently Android Applications among others. They say all men are created equal, but when it comes to our passions, they certainly are different. I am a published author of [MY LIFE SENTENCES -A TRUE STORY] which has seen almost 13,000 copies downloaded on Amazon Kindle and further humbled me beyond my initial expectations. They also say the hardest thing for an author is writing, yet I do it anyway!
Now, back to code. I started this blog purposefully for web development. I just signed up for the Mozilla Developer Network's (MDN) peer-to-peer learning program and one of the first things I had to do was to create this blog and then share the link with fellow learners. You can also join by visiting Mozilla Developer Network where you will meet great minds that will help you face your challenges with a stronger and better approach! See you there.
Background knowledge: I have been using the following technologies for quite some time now: HTML, CSS, CSS3, HTML5, Javascript, jQuery, jQuery UI, Python, Java, Android Development, SaSS & Less, Twitter API, Google Maps, Project Management, Startups, a little new to NodeJs, MongoDB, and many more.
If you have any questions on those subjects you can ask them using the comments section or send me a message privately using twitter. Also, if you have self-publishing questions, do not hesitate to ask. I am willing to help you for free because I have been there before and would love to see you have a book of your own published on Kindle!
That being said, thank you once again and hope to see you around!
Stay informed and don't let some crazy person tell you that you cannot be what you want to be in life!

A Downers Grove North High School sophomore, who prosecutors claim has admitted planting a homemade bomb in the school, was ordered Friday to remain indefinitely in the DuPage County Juvenile Detention Center.
DuPage Judge Peter Dockery denied the request of the youth's lawyer that he be released to his parents' home.
The 15-year-old appeared in court with hands cuffed behind his back and legs shackled.
Although the youth didn't speak during Friday's 30-minute Juvenile Court hearing, Assistant State's Atty. Karen Orton stated that the youth admitted bringing the plastic bottle bomb to school on Wednesday and that he was responsible for another explosion in a school washroom last May.

THQ Shopping Itagaki's Devil's Third, Game No Longer Fits Their "Profit Profile"
It looks like things aren't working out to well for Tomonobu Itagaki's first project since leaving Team Ninja. Itagaki's Devil's Third was set to be published by THQ but in a recent call to investors, THQ CEO and President Brian Farrell said that the game no longer fits their "profitability profile." What that means we will leave to you to ponder.
Specifically, Farrell said "The profitability profile for Devil's Third no longer met our internal threshold and we are currently in discussions with third parties regarding the future of this title." He went on to say unforeseen issues during the development of the game including the company that made the game engine that Devil's Third was going to run on went out of business. When that happened, THQ was forced to step in and assist Itagaki's team in the development of a new engine which cost a considerable amount of time and money that they hadn't initially projected. The death stroke though was perhaps the unexpected appreciation of the Yen, which reduced Devil's Third's potential for profit compared to other projects in THQ's pipeline.
THQ says it isn't completely throwing Devil's Third to the wayside and will try to work with Itagaki to find a new publisher to "make sure this game comes to market". If the numbers don't add up, then we don't think it's bad for THQ to bail (especially with their recent troubles), but at this point with the amount of money they have sunk into the development of the game it might have been worth it to just see it through. As is the case now, they will probably end up selling the rights to another publisher, names like Sega and Square Enix make a lot of sense to me. Itagaki is probably best known from his work on the Dead or Alive and Ninja Gaiden franchises, those games were awesome so I wouldn't count him out just yet.
Either way this should turn out to be interesting, though I predict Itagaki and Devil's Third won't be looking for a new home for long.

But lately I am beginning to find
That when I drive myself my light is found
That when I drive myself my light is found
My father was a Safety Engineer. He spent decades working in both the international construction industry as well as the public utility industry, trying to keep people from killing themselves at work and investigating when they did. Growing up, the best way to irritate him was run with a lollipop in my mouth or hand him back the scissors, blades first.
I took my first CPR and First Aid courses when I was 16 and was hooked. Became a lifeguard at 17 and have been ever since. When I was in college, I signed up for the EMT course at the local junior college and fell in love. I loved everything about it - the anatomy, the physiology, the pressure, the details, all of it. My clinical hours at the hospital weren't anything remarkable but my ride-along in the ambulance was.
We had transported a lady from the nursing home to the hospital. I had been instructed not to touch anything or do anything - I was simply there to observe. No problem. I sat in the jump seat between the Paramedic and the EMT, asked a ton of questions, tried my best not to be in the way or annoying, and tried to absorb everything. Well, everything except bodily fluids. Those are gross.
We dropped off the patient and we're on the 405 in the middle of midday traffic, heading back to the station. It was busy but not gridlocked. All of a sudden, the Paramedic says, "Oh, shit" and BAM. We had been rear-ended. Some guy in a Geo Metro (go Google it...) had careened across 4 lanes of traffic - from the fast lane to the slow lane - and tagged the back end of the rig. Hard. 16,000-pound ambulance versus 2,000 Geo Metro. It didn't end well for him.
The Paramedic throws the rig in park and starts to get out, telling the EMT in the passenger seat to get on the radio, call dispatch, tell them what's going on, and request assistance. The EMT freezes.
He just sat there.
The Paramedic looks at me and tells me to do what he just told the EMT to do and then come find him outside. I reminded him I had been told not to touch anything or DO anything. He told me to ignore that. So I radioed dispatch, told them what was going on, requested assistance, and grabbed gloves. Found the Paramedic with a very combative and VERY drunk unrestrained and bloody driver in what was left of the Metro.
The EMT was still sitting in the rig.
The Paramedic had me go get a C-collar and a K.E.D. so I grabbed those and brought them back to him. He transferred control of the patient's head to me, as I sat in the backseat behind the driver's seat. Thankfully the seat separated us because Mr. Combative was swinging. I'm not sure if it was because he was drunk or because his face had met the windshield at 55 mph. Or both. Regardless, he was unhappy about his current situation and was trying to take it out on me. Thankfully he *was* drunk and not very accurate in his swings. The Paramedic managed to get him collared and calmed down without getting punched and we started to get his bleeding under control.
By the time the next rig, fire engine, and highway patrol officers made it to us, we had him collared, bandaged, and assessed. Meanwhile, the EMT remained sitting in the passenger seat of the rig. I was able to help with the extrication as well. Lousy day for the EMT but a great day for me!
I went on to finish the class and had planned to take the NREMT, but we moved to Colorado right after I finished the course and they were paying EMTs about $6.50/hour, whereas I could make $10/hour as a swim coach. Money talks so I walked away from the EMT world.
And I've regretted it ever since.
Don't get me wrong - I LOVE coaching and I can't wait to get back on deck. But I've spent every year since I walked away from my EMT certification trying to get it back. When we were in Alaska, I found a course I could take in the summer, between school years. But then I found out I couldn't take it while pregnant and I was pregnant with my first child.
I found a class in Hawaii but MacGyver's crazy deployment/training schedule made it impossible with littles at home. I found a class here in Oz but see above. And there were no classes in Korea.
Go figure.
But now we're back. And my littles aren't little anymore. And life has eased up a bit. And I have access to the GI Bill. And...it might just work. Our lead pastor is a Paramedic and (former?) Flight Medic. He has connections in this local world and, during our 'on-boarding' session, he sat there and texted the EMT instructor to verify that he'd be teaching the class again in the fall. He will.
This may actually happen. There are some logistics to work out but I'm doing my best not to sweat details that are 9 months out. I don't know what my life is going to look like much beyond tomorrow so I see no sense in expending precious energy stressing over something months away. Or so I keep telling myself.
I don't know that I even want to go work as an EMT - mainly I want to get my certification so I can put it to use with Team Rubicon (still working on that post...), but I suspect I will need to work as an EMT in order to gain the experience necessary to help with TR. So there's that.
I don't 'do' resolutions each year. Not my thing. But I always have goals - things I want to accomplish, complete, learn, do. Getting back on deck, regaining my EMT certification, and working with TR are my top 3 right now and they are all kind of lining up. I'm almost afraid to hope.
But I will anyway.

Justin Bieber's festive album has rocketed to the top of the charts.
Under The Mistletoe has debuted at number one with 210,000 first-week sales.
It's the first holiday song collection by a male artist to enter at number one in the 55-year history of the Billboard 200 chart, and only the eighth Christmas album to occupy the top spot.
The only other festive album to debut atop the countdown is Susan Boyle's The Gift last year (10).
The other six holiday albums to top the Billboard 200 were Josh Groban's Noel, Kenny G's Miracles - the Holiday Album, Mitch Miller's Holiday Sing Along With Mitch and Christmas Sing-Along With Mitch, Merry Christmas by Bing Crosby and Elvis Presley's Elvis' Christmas Album, which was the first holiday chart-topper in 1957.
Under The Mistletoe is Bieber's third number one album, making him the first solo artist to land three releases at the top of the countdown before their 18th birthday.
The teenager tops a chart that is full of high new entries - rapper Wale debuts Ambition at two, country sweetheart Miranda Lambert's Four the Record bows at three and Scottish singer Boyle scores a third successive top five hit with Someone to Watch Over Me at four.
Also debuting in the new top 10: Florence + the Machine's Ceremonials at six and Tyrese's Open Invitation at nine.
Meanwhile, Adele's 21 slips a spot to five on the chart and last week's number one, Coldplay's Mylo Xyloto, falls to seven.

Trade Paperback
120 pages
Jul 2003
Overmountain Press
Review | Author Bio | Read an Excerpt
"Do a scary old fort, an evil eyed, bushy bearded man, buried treasure, and an ancient skeleton scare twelve-year-old Bitsy? Not a bit! Well, maybe a little bit, or even a big bit, but Bitsy is not about to let fear stand in her way in Bitsy and the Mystery at Tybee Island. With her trusty yet timid Cousin Matt sometimes by her side, when not behind her, Bitsy will get to the bottom of this mystery. Danger means nothing to her, until she is tied up, halfway up the lighthouse and being pushed by a really bad guy. In addition to all these adventures, Bitsy, as oldest child in the family, must take time to test her fathers newly invented tanning lotion, grudgingly take care of her younger siblings, rescue her very pregnant mother from the rat in the bathroom, make friends with weird people, and run for the veterinarian to deliver the baby.
Delightfully combining Tybee Island, Georgia geography and history with a scary, page-turning mystery, prize-winning playwright, author, speaker Vonda Skelton vividly portrays Bitsys mysterious perils as well as problems with her loving, Christian parents, and ever-growing, poor family. This humorous, hair-raising tale holds the readers interest while capably displaying the results of disobedient, thoughtless action, Christian repentance, family values, problem solving, and judging the character of others.
Skelton ably and candidly portrays believable characters. Both children and adults make mistakes and amends. Eight through twelve year olds will love this mystery. So will their parents, and the younger children who have it read to them." -- Donna Eggett, Christian Book Previews.com
Book Jacket:
Set on Tybee Island, Georgia, the story is told by Bitsy, a twelve-year-old tomboy whose imagination and curiosity repeatedly get her into trouble as she searches for hidden treasure, discovers a skeleton, and faces a kidnapper. Local points of interest contribute to the story, including The Tybee island Lighthouse and Museum, historic Fort Screven, and Chapel-By-The-Sea Baptist Church.

Ibrahim, 5 Year Old Iraqi Boy Who Lost His Legs in 2008
Ibrahim is a five year old boy from Iraq who lost his legs in an explosion. Without a wheelchair, he had to crawl on the ground in Iraq and was not able to explore his surroundings. Thanks to the efforts of Army doctor, LTC Paul Morrissey and the Iraqi Children's Project, in 2008 he came to the United States where Springfield Shriners Hospital fitted him with prosthetic legs, allowing him to walk again. He was excited and grateful to regain his mobility, and loved his time in the United States. He even came to the TDF fundraiser in November of 2008!

A Jefferson Lab programmer is a finalist in a worldwide computer contest.
Michael Haddox-Schatz is headed for "geek heaven," but he doesn't act the geeky part.
Three street-hockey sticks lean in the corner of his only-slightly-messy cubicle. The 31-year-old computer programmer spends his lunch hours playing hockey with several other Jefferson Lab employees on a stretch of concrete behind the lab's accelerator.
He also coaches and plays on the lab's softball team in the York County Co-Ed Industrial League.
A "Darth Tater" -- think Mr. Potato Head with the iconic "Star Wars" helmet -- stands on his cubicle shelf, and is that a street-hockey ball on his desk?
"No, it's a stress-reliever ball," Haddox-Schatz says as he picks up the blue rubber ball and squeezes it. Sure enough, it has "Jefferson Lab Occupational Health and Safety" printed on it.
Then there's the computer with two screens -- one for calling up documentation, the other for writing programs on -- that bears testimony to what Haddox-Schatz is really, really good at.
He's one of 100 finalists from around the world -- only seven from the United States -- who'll compete in Google's Global Code Jam 2006 championship round on Oct. 27.
It's "geek heaven," Jefferson Lab spokeswoman Linda Ware says of the contest.
The competition pits programmers against each other to see who can solve a series of programming puzzles most quickly and accurately.
What kind of puzzles? Haddox-Schatz gives an example he tackled in another contest, based on the children's board game Chutes and Ladders.
"The player is given the location of the various chutes and ladders, and where the players are on the board. You have to determine what are the odds of each player winning the game," he says, by writing software that calculates the probability of their future moves.
It took him between half an hour and 45 minutes to solve that puzzle, he says.
It's Haddox-Schatz's second trip to the Google Code Jam finals. "Last year, I think I came in 65th," he says. "I don't expect to win. My goal is to place in the Top 25.
"I've been doing programming contests since high school."
Some 20,000 programmers entered the contest, and Haddox-Schatz has survived previous rounds that picked the Top 1,000, then 500, and now the final 100.
Haddox-Schatz grew up in Northern Virginia and came to Hampton Roads when his wife, Jennifer, entered graduate school at the College of William and Mary.
His job at the nuclear physics laboratory is to write software that enables data from lab experiments to be retrieved from the myriad tapes stored in the lab's big "data silo" and sent to computers where the physicists can study them.
He's also been a finalist in programming competitions held by TopCoder Inc.
Competition programming "helps me improve the coding skills I need for my job, giving me practice in thinking about processes in an orderly way and helping me visualize new ways of solving problems," he says.
And there's the money. First prize in Google Code Jam is $20,000, with at least $750 guaranteed as a finalist, he notes.
"Plus the free trip to New York." *

Pet Owner in Independence
My 13 year old lab mix needs a loving safe place to stay for 11 days and 10 nights July 9- July 19 while I am away. She will be a bit lonely so she will need someone who has some time for her. She has no high demands: no meds, no need for heavy exercise, no serious behavior problems. She gets along with most dogs and has a stable relationship with my cats. She does have grain allergies, (I will provide her food), will sometimes dig a hole to lie in when left in a yard for a long time, and needs to be in an enclosed area or tied so she doesn't wander. I would appreciate references and email or text updates a few times during her stay. I live in Independence OR.

Medium-sized green energy generation schemes are falling through gaps in the government's energy policy, MPs have warned.
Schools, businesses and communities should be given financial support to install 10 to 50MW schemes, such as wind turbines and solar panels, as local schemes could provide cheaper electricity to communities, cut costs for businesses and encourage people to engage with measures to save energy, the Energy and Climate Change (ECC) parliamentary committee has said.
Though large-scale projects would still supply the majority of power for the country, the MPs said, local energy could provide a significant proportion of the UK's energy capacity in the future.
But while households that install small-scale systems and major renewables projects both receive financial support, medium-sized schemes receive no financial aid.
Speaking for the committee, Dr Alan Whitehead said: "Encouraging schools, businesses and local authorities to generate some of their electricity locally can bring big benefits to communities and the UK as a whole.
"Businesses can reduce their energy overheads, locals can potentially benefit from cheaper electricity or heat, and councils can use projects to tackle fuel poverty, cut costs and reduce carbon emissions.
"Medium-scale power plants could also help to boost energy security. Local heating schemes in particular could be helpful in balancing out peaks and troughs in the electricity supply and demand by storing energy as hot water when there is a surplus of electricity being generated."
The committee said the government must bring forward proposals to support such schemes to incentivise people to install them, alongside a package of measures addressing finance, planning, grid access and advice, a report from the committee urged.
The government-backed Green Investment Bank could provide seed funding and project development cash for feasibility studies, permits for the grid and other elements to reduce the risk in getting schemes off the ground.
Local energy projects currently struggle in the face of problems and costs obtaining planning permission, connection to the grid, public opposition and securing funding for the scheme, the committee's report said.
Medium-sized projects could include wind turbines, solar arrays of a number of panels, district heating schemes, which provide heat to a number of buildings and could be locally-owned, run by councils or installed by companies, or organisations including universities and hospitals.
Whitehead added: "Although it is unlikely that local energy projects will eliminate the need for larger, centralised power stations completely, with some government support they could provide a significant proportion of the UK's energy capacity while reducing carbon emissions and increasing efficiency."
The report also urged the government to do more to encourage local authorities to identify suitable areas for renewable energy development in their areas.
It said councils should set out clear guidance about what is expected from local energy projects to reduce risk in the planning process and prevent bad projects from coming forward.
And the government should encourage businesses to offer local people a stake in all new energy developments, or consider making community ownership mandatory, which could help boost support for new power schemes.
Friends of the Earth campaigner Donna Hume said: "The government should be doing much more to help small businesses, councils and schools save on fuel bills by generating their own clean power from renewable sources of energy.
"Supporting medium-sized clean energy schemes would reduce our reliance on the 'Big Six' energy firms who have kept the UK hooked on gas imports for decades; the very climate-changing fuel that's driving up our bills.
"Ministers should use the current Energy Bill and forthcoming community energy strategy to give more people a stake in the UK's huge clean energy resource, from solar arrays to district heating schemes."

This doesn't make up for his disappointing run in the Indianapolis 500, going from pole-sitter to a race-ending wreck early on. But it comes close.
Ed Carpenter has never had much success at Texas Motor Speedway, but all those misses finally paid off. Carpenter had the best car Saturday night and held off a late charge by Will Power to win the Firestone 600.
"It's just good to bounce back," Carpenter said. "Nothing totally makes up for the missed opportunity at [Indy], but this is a big win for us."
It's the third career victory for Carpenter and comes at a track that hasn't treated him too well. He had finished 15th or worse in seven of his first 10 races and had no top-five runs until coming in fourth last season.
But start No. 13 proved to be the charm, as Carpenter won in dramatic fashion.
Carpenter beat Power off pit road with 35 laps left on the final green-flag stop and gained a comfortable lead once Power was penalized for speeding off pit road.
That cushion went away, though, when Takuma Sato blew his engine and brought out a caution flag with seven laps to go.
It led to a two-lap shootout on the restart and Carpenter held off Power, who overcame the pit-road blunder and had the benefit of fresh tires. Power passed Juan Pablo Montoya on the restart and very well could have passed Carpenter with another lap.
"It's hard to say how many laps it would've taken for Will," Carpenter said. "I don't know."
It will remain unknown, but what is known is that simply getting back into contention was an impressive feat for Power. It might pay dividends in his title chase.
"Ed was awfully strong," Power said. "My car was good at the end of the stint, but I just feel happy that we came in second. It was a lot of fun."
Some contenders weren't as fortunate.
Marco Andretti had a strong opening lap, moving up eight spots, before he lost his engine on Lap 5. A small fire onboard ensued and ended Andretti's night before it really even began.
"I'm really gutted," said Andretti, who finished last. "This one is frustrating."
Things continued to get worse for Andretti Autosport with reigning Indy 500 winner Ryan Hunter-Reay getting knocked out after 135 laps with mechanical issues.
It's been a rough couple of weeks for Hunter-Reay since his career-defining win two weeks ago. He finished 16th and 19th in a pair of road races at Detroit last week, and had another disappointing finish in Texas.
"[The car] just lost power all of a sudden," Hunter-Reay said. "We were running seventh and still had a shot at it. It was a long night and we needed points most of all, so really disappointed."
But the night belonged to driver-owner Carpenter and his No. 20 Chevrolet Fuzzy's Vodka team.
Carpenter is only running on ovals this season with Mike Conway handling the street and road races. Carpenter made the change before the season in order to make his team more competitive and it's paid off so far.
Conway won the second race of the season at Long Beach and Ed Carpenter Racing is now one of three teams with two wins, joining Team Penske and Andretti Autosport.
"Awesome night," Carpenter said. "I have loved this racetrack for a long time and had a lot of bad luck here. I have really always wanted to win here, so super excited."

SOURCE: Practice Greenhealth
October 19, 2016 12:20 ET
New owner joins the growing cooperative to build a unique marketplace that will feature a broad range of green products used in health care settings
RESTON, VA--(Marketwired - October 19, 2016) - Greenhealth Exchange (GX) -- a purchasing cooperative that makes it easy to source products and services used in health care settings that are good for people, the planet and the bottom line -- announced today that Marshfield Clinic Health System (MCHS) has become the newest owner to join the organization.
MCHS, who recently celebrated its 100-year anniversary mark, is a mission-driven organization whose top priority is to improve the health of the community. They have been providing compassionate, innovative care to generations, enriching lives of the patients.
"For the past century, Marshfield Clinic has emphasized providing world-class health care, educating the next generation of providers and conducting research that leads to better health outcomes for patients," said MCHS Chief Financial Officer Gordon Edwards. "Sustainability is a core component of quality patient care because it directly impacts the health of our patients, employees and communities we serve."
"With its mission to enhance community health, Marshfield Clinic Health System is a natural fit for Greenhealth Exchange," said John Strong, President of GX. "This new partnership further strengthens our efforts to ensure hospitals have greater access to high-quality green products at competitive prices and transparency into the attributes that make them green."
Health care organizations in the US purchase more than $300 billion of goods and services each year, accounting for 17 percent of the marketplace. Strong shared that this buying clout puts hospitals and health systems in a strong position to accelerate the adoption of products that are safer and healthier and spark innovation in the supply chain.
MCHS joins the nation's top leaders in health care sustainability who launched GX earlier this year. Founders include four health systems -- Dartmouth-Hitchcock, Dignity Health, Gundersen Health System, and Partners HealthCare -- along with longtime sustainability advocates Health Care Without Harm and Practice Greenhealth. Since the launch, GX has continued its focus on developing a network of suppliers.
With the addition of The MCHS, the purchasing cooperative is now backed by a combined total of 60 hospitals that together represent $25B in annual revenues and almost $5B in purchasing power.
"With the support of our owners and our product manufacturers and suppliers, GX is on track to launch its online catalog at the end of the year," said Strong.
Through detailed product specifications and supplier performance requirements, the unique marketplace will offer members access to the following:
Strong shared that additional major health systems are expected to join GX as owners before the catalog goes live. Learn more about GX and follow the latest updates by visiting the website: www.GreenhealthExchange.com

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'NDS - Flashcarts and Accessories' started by fatman711, Jul 20, 2006.
Do they exist? Has anyone bought one?
I don't get what your talking about, fake micro-sd cards?
Like you go to the store buy a micro-sd card & it's????
Not a SD card? Just take it back. Am I missing your point?
Or are you talking about the fake Supercards mini-SD?
There is no such thing as a 'fake' micro-sd card as Micro-SD is a generally open format and any flash maker can generally make them.
But...I believe there could be a few but not many because Micro-SD is not as profitable as Memory Sticks.
ok, sorry let me rephrase that.
Micro SD cards with brand name logos on them, but are not really that brand.
For example:
Sony memory stick duos that you find on ebay that are not real Sonys.
off course they exist .
you know if something is proffitable enough, they sure make it!!!

Covering the Front and Back Pages of the Newspaper
January 8, 2008
BLOG: Quick Links 1/8/08
*Dave Barry's Year in Review. Priceless. Too much great stuff to excerpt.
*Mark Steyn cautions against
writing New Hampshire off as just another effete decadent coastal latte-swilling gay-marriage weekend home untypical of the conservative heartland, just a Studio 54 in the mountains full of transplanted liberals hitting on coked-up moose as they stagger around in search of a restaurant serving something with arugula. NH delivered Bush's margin of victory in 2000. It remains the north-east's still-just-about non-liberal state. If the Republican Party can't come up with a candidate that has some appeal in New Hampshire, its prospects of winning in November are dramatically reduced.
*From Kevin Drum, grudging acceptance of military progress in Iraq, and a picture-perfect sample of the attitude I described here. And yes, I still think it more likely than not that Hillary pulls this out, although while Iowa didn't really surprise me that much (the race there had been close for months), I've been surprised at how quickly her support in NH seems to have cratered. Speaking of which, Patrick Ruffini and Jay Cost, two of the Right's savvier campaign observers, lay out how Hillary can win the nomination even after losing New Hampshire, as she is now expected to do. Patrick focuses on the Nevada caucuses, while Jay focuses on the delegate math, particularly the superdelegates.
*Ralph Peters argues that the US Navy should have reacted more aggressively to an obvious provocation by the Iranians in the Gulf on Sunday. He's clearly right about what the Iranians were trying to do, and I'm generally sympathetic to the power-politics argument that failing to respond to provocations only brings larger ones. On the other hand, you don't start fights you are not prepared to pursue to the bitter end. As Peters describes it, the encounter came awfully close to the line at which a US Naval commander would need to open fire to protect his vessels, but I don't buy the idea that we always have to initiate combat over this sort of thing, which is the logical endpoint of Peters' argument.

Crank, I think the issue is/was the boats were in range for a couple minutes, due to the mechanics of our guns had they run at the US Ships for another 15 seconds we would have been unable to fire on them. That is asking for a Cole sequel; I expect the rules of engagement to be redefined and doubt the Navy will let anyone get as close again.Posted by: abe at January 11, 2008 9:04 AM
