2003 Chrysler Town & Country
By on 10/17/10 | Huntsville, AL
Purchases new, eL version. Approx. 75K on the odo. Great ride and utility. Interior fit and finish OK/average. Drive train has performed quite well; engine/tranny holding up fine. Steering pump whines and gets really noisy in cold weather. Had the lines to the PS pump replaced under recall, but still noisy. Power rear gate works only intermittently now; passenger side door power lock has failed; power passenger door very stiff to open manually (this was also service under recall.) Driver power window has stopped working; maybe the switch. Have just discovered a leak in the water pump but this kind of thing will happen. Hopefully the van will hold up for another two years without MAJOR pain or heartache.

ok so I bought in Jan 2007 with 66,000 miles. been doing great, just little things like replacing tires. then this year in July, I was driving, made a left turn, and car just stopped. turns out I had to replace the cv joints. steering wheel makes whining noises. when I'm driving, the engine shifts down as if I was driving a manual. then about two - three weeks ago car wouldn't start on me. couldn't get it jumped. had two sit and wait for over an hour in the heat in Texas then it started. turned off on me which I was driving. .went to mechanic they couldn't find nothing so they replaced battery. as I was leaving shop car stalled. so I had them give me back my battery since it was fine ( barely got it last July ). then one night I left store and it turned off again while I was driving, this time I had my kids. barely turned into a taco bell parking lot. car started after about three minutes. mechanic can't find anything wrong with it. read computer but came back with no codes. took it to auto parts store and they checked alternator n starter. yesterday I started looking for a new car. wanna fix this problem n trade it in! especially after reading alot of bad reviews everywhere. oh yeah. did I mention? I'm sitting here in my car cuz it won't start. now the engine light is on. GREAT.

By on 8/19/10 | Mooresville, NC
Purchased new and has 99,000 miles. Great vehicle with great tire wear, few realignmnts, no transmission or electrical problems, and is a great hauler with seats removed. Replaced one window motor, one set of brake rotors and pads and two batteries. Power steering makes a noise every now and then, but not for long. Mostly in very cold weather. Last week the front brakes did overheat twice while coming down a mountain in NC.

By on 7/23/10 | Portland, OR
Bought new in 2003 with the Braun Entervan conversion (lowered floor and wheelchair ramp). Now has 128k miles on it. Front brakes at 50k mile and 100ks Rear brakes at 85k miles because of a really WIERD sound coming from the right rear which had been going on since we owned it.. Basttery needed replaced early on (probably problems with the Alternator that were never found). Chriping of belts and a probable bad "belt tensioner" (not verified yet). Power steering is making a groaning noise when doing low speed turns-- I see that is a standard problem that needs fixed.
I've only taken to Chrysler dealer 1x and they fixed the tailgate.
Very nice vehicle overall -- it rides like a tank, but not as bas as a 91 Ford E150 (previous vehicle)..

Desiree McKinney slowly began to paint a yellow sun with orange rays in the middle of a quilting square.
"I came mainly for her," said her mother, Bernita McKinney, an Army veteran. But after watching her daughter work for a while, McKinney began to paint on an old camouflage jacket. "This is sort of like a confirmation that I am done with my service," she said as she painted a red heart on the left pocket.
On July 30, the McKinneys visited the Tacoma Vet Center to participate in a painting workshop called The War Experience Project. Begun two years ago by Rick Lawson, the project uses painting as a way for veterans, servicemembers and family members to find confirmation for their service.
Lawson served as a laboratory technician with the Washington Army National Guard's 81st Brigade and deployed to Iraq in 2004-2005.
"When I returned from Iraq, people would ask me things like, 'What did you do?' and 'Did you kill anyone?'" wrote Lawson in an e-mail.
Going on to say that anecdotal answers did not work for him, Lawson began to look for answers in art.
While taking an art class at Western Washington University, he was asked to create art expressing his own thoughts on the war.
"I was the only vet in the class," continued Lawson, "and I thought, 'You don't know what you're asking. It's not that easy.'"
It was then he realized the expressive power of painting with other veterans.
"We thought it would be great to integrate the project into what we do here, which is holistic," commented the Vet Center's outreach coordinator, Elena McSwain.
After Lawson and program coordinator Valery Tolle explained the basics of painting, McKinney spread a square piece of canvas in front of her daughter. Soon, the sun appeared. In short order, McKinney picked out an old desert camouflage uniform blouse. After spreading it out on a table, she put on latex gloves, rubbed black acrylic paint on, and then began to put handprints on the right sleeve of the blouse.
Lawson and Tolle offered some advice but were careful to keep out of the way.
"We don't teach as much as we create space for people to do this," said Lawson as he mixed some blue paint. "And we always go on, even if only one person shows up."
The project hopes to exhibit the artwork created by participants in Tacoma's storefront art project, Spaceworks.
"Service is honored here," said Lawson. "We recognize the extraordinary experiences some of these veterans and family members have gone through."
The War Experience Project is in need of monetary donations and used uniforms. For more information, visit www.warep.com.

Do you have smelly shoes?
Watch this video to learn how to make your own foot powder with a few simple ingredients!
With the summer on its way, we are bound to be wearing shoes without (or with) socks (y'know, flats, TOMS, sandals, heels, trainers, Keds ad infinitum).
Cleaning expert, Melissa Maker, shows us how to this in a few quick steps (no pun intended).
Find a zippered plastic bag or a container with a good seal. Label that container – otherwise people will start to wonder what all that white powder is!
Add 1/2 cup corn starch, 1/4 cup baking soda and 1/4 cup baking powder.
If you would like to, add 5 drops of your favourite essential oil (thyme, lavender etc. offer great scents as well as odour-fighting properties).
Shake all contents together and voila, you now have a homemade foot powder.
To use it, sprinkle a pinch in each shoe and tap the shoe at the heel and then at the toe to effectively distribute the powder. Do this in the morning before you leave the house and use it any time you feel your feet getting sweaty (read: smelly).
Hope you found this helpful!

Cato Potato – Pixie Bob
I mentioned recently that I lost my cat to a coyote a few months ago. Have planned not to get another pet for awhile, because I was strongly attached to Cato and feel weird about the idea of "replacing" him. Also, I'm afraid that because he would be a tough act to follow, I would be disappointed with a new pet, and that wouldn't be fair to the animal. But…one of my neighbors stopped when I was outside last week and asked if I was the person with the Pixie Bob. She said she had a great connection to a breeder, and that "Pixie Bobs are just cool."
I've only ever known the one I had, so I can't speak to the breed generally, but maybe he was representative. He was wildly playful and mischievous the first year; I didn't know, then, about pet insurance, but the damage he could do with all those extra claws did put "cat" and "insurance" together in my mind. Not to mention the fact that he liked to hide in the hedge and jump out at pedestrians. The woman who ran the neighborhood bakery saw him at a block party. She said, "Is that your cat? He jumped out of the bushes at me last week, and surprised me so much I spilled my coffee."
Practically speaking, I can't get a kitten right now because I'm not home during the day and my kids aren't home enough to cover those first few months when he or she shouldn't be left alone for hours at a time. I'm not completely shelving the idea, though. Hmm…a little Pixie Bob kitten.

Bank of New York Mellon Profit Jumps
Despite decline in assets under management, earnings beat expectations
Bank of New York Mellon Corp. said profit soared in its latest quarter, despite rocky market conditions that hit assets and pressured fee revenue, as the asset-manager came up against a favorable comparison from the year-earlier period.
As a custody bank, BNY Mellon derives a major portion of its business from serving trillions in assets for money managers and other clients, in addition to managing clients' investments. Amid emerging market weakness, higher regulatory compliance requirements and low interest rates, the bank...

The bank, which was taken into state ownership in February this year, took back the keys from 4,201 home owners in the nine months to the end of September.
This is a far higher rate of repossessions than most other mortgage companies are implementing.
One in every 108 Northern Rock customers has had their homes take from them. This compares to a national average of one in every 250 customers having their homes taken from them, according to the Council of Mortgage Lenders.
Campaigners said that this was proof that Northern Rock was being a "ruthless and aggressive" and that it was an ominous sign that the Treasury would crack down on late-paying mortgage customers now that it had stakes in nearly half the entire country's mortgages.
In recent weeks it has taken control of Bradford & Bingley's mortgage book, as well as taking stakes in Royal Bank of Scotland, HBOS and Lloyds TSB. Along with Northern Rock it now partly controls 44 per cent of the UK's 11.7 million outstanding home loans.
Labour MP John McDonnell, who heads the think tank Left Economics Advisory Panel, said: "We fully nationalised Northern Rock, yet the Government's bank is becoming the most ruthless and aggressive repossessor under the cosh of Government pressure to repay the loans. The Government is in danger of being seen as protecting banks while ignoring people."
Experts pointed out that it was understandable that Northern Rock would have a higher repossession rate than the industry average, because the bank had been one of the most generous lenders, offering low rates to customers with often poor credit records – one of the reasons it got into trouble, and collapsed last year.
However, Adam Sampson, the chief executive of the housing charity Shelter, said: "It is very interesting to see how the Government is flexing its new found muscle, now that it owns, or part-owns, more than 40 per cent of the mortgage market.
"I have sat in meetings this week when ministers lectured mortgage lenders about their social responsibilities. It is ironic if ministers were now presiding over the most aggressive repossession policy in the market."
So far, the credit crisis and the deteriorating condition of the housing market has not hit too many home owners, with 18,900 houses repossessed in the first six months of this year – a modest rate of home seizures compared to the early 1990s, when nearly 40,000 homes were repossessed in a half-year.
However, experts warn that it will not be until next year that the crisis hits home, because it takes many months from the point when a home owner first gets into trouble with their payments and when the mortgage company finally seizes the home.
A spokesman for Northern Rock said that its rate of resposessions was because of market conditions. "It's regrettable when we have to repossess anyone, but the market is deteriorating – as it is for everyone. We only repossess a house as a last resort."
The Treasury insisted that any decision to seize a home was made by the individual banks, not by the Government.
"We have said we will operate all these mortgage books at an arm's length, and operate them as commercial organisations."

Whoah! Mick Jagger, 70, has just become a great-grandfather. Can you think of a cooler great-granddad than the iconic rock star?
The Rolling Stones' front man's 21-year-old granddaughter, Assisi Jackson, has reportedly given birth to a baby girl. The child's name has not been made public.
"The women in our family just tend to have children young, it runs in the genes," Jagger's granddaughter told Hello! magazine.
"I grew up quite quickly and wouldn't have considered having a child if I was doing what my friends are doing at this stage, messing around," said Assisi. "I don't drink, I don't smoke and I'm very settled."
A homeopathic business owner, Alex Key, 25, is the father, according to The Daily Mail. The couple live in a converted barn in Cornwall, about 250 miles from London.
Some happy news for Mick #Jagger http://t.co/Yhjf8XF0OI #RollingStones pic.twitter.com/eFuFRAYpBR
— WHO Magazine (@WHOmagazine) May 20, 2014
Jagger has seven children with four women, and four grandchildren. Assisi is the daughter of Jade Jagger, 42, and onetime partner Piers Jackson.
Assisi's mom, Jade Jagger, is the daughter of Jagger's first wife, Bianca Jagger, and had Assisi at age 20. Ironically, Jade is also pregnant with husband Adrian Fillary and a mother-daughter baby shower was thrown for the pair in March.
Congratulations to Jade Jagger's daughter Assisi who has announced her pregnancy to HELLO!

Congratulations designer Jade Jagger who just announced that, along with her daughter Assisi, she's expecting a baby! pic.twitter.com/T6zGR5BDQM
— ELLE Magazine (@ELLEmagazineSA) February 11, 2014
That joint baby shower was thrown right around the 50th anniversary of the Stones' first album and was hosted by Mick's former common-law wife, Jerry Hall.
The coolest new great-grandfather in the world may not want to be called grandpa, however.
"I imagine it's nice to be a great-grandad – although I'm not sure he likes the idea of getting old, or being called one," said Assisi. "I call him Mick – I wouldn't start calling him Grandpa."
One would imagine this news is a bit of joy for the rock-'n-roll legend, who suffered a great loss when his longtime love, L'Wren Scott, took her own life in March.
"I am still struggling to understand how my lover and best friend could end her life in this tragic way," Jagger wrote on Facebook. "We spent many wonderful years together and had made a great life for ourselves."
Congratulations to the entire, extended Jagger family.

Telling your kids how you lost your virginity should not be part of sex ed
I would bet my firstborn child that your kids don't want to ever hear how you lost your virginity. Ever, ever, ever. But some moms think that TMI is the way to go to promote sex positivity and open communication. Parent oversharing of sordid sexcapades has one predictable outcome: Promoting abstinence through reverse psychology.
Having the sex talk with your kids is intimidating for a reason. There are so, so many ways that you can do it wrong. You can approach your kids with the same religious attitude that cloaked my upbringing: Never, ever have sex. Ever. (Did I say ever?) Sex is shameful and bad outside of marriage. It is a sin, and you will always feel guilty for giving away your precious virginity flower.
Spoiler alert: This is a terrible way to raise your kids. I know that both of my parents probably didn't know any better — they shared the same beliefs spread within our fundamental Christian community. I did remain a virgin for a very, very long time, until I moved in with my now-husband at the age of 24.
This shame and taboo surrounding sex was incredibly detrimental to me. It took a long time to get rid of the sex guilt, even in a committed relationship. Now I have flip-flopped my views completely, though I am still a Christian. I think that sex is positive and healthy. It should be celebrated among responsible adults. I'm not excited to think about my toddlers turning into hormone-crazed teenagers, but I would rather them have a positive sex experience than associate it with guilt.
There are other parents who feel this way and try to raise their kids with a sex-positive message. But as the old saying goes, you can have too much of a good thing. One xoJane.com post was written by a woman with an upbringing similar to my own. She says that her parents never talked to her about sex. She vows to tell her children every last detail about her sex life, including how she lost her virginity, when they are old enough to handle it.
Gulp. I think this woman's heart is in the right place, but her execution sounds terrible. Many of the commenters agree that taking a TMI approach to sex is totally ass-backward and will do nothing but scare your kids away from it altogether. In translation, extreme TMI sex-positive parenting could turn your kids into prudes.
To bring it full circle, there is a silver lining. While I personally will not be pushing the abstinence agenda, there is one way to keep your teens from getting busy: Tell them way too much about your sex life and ruin sexy time forever.

Tomorrow I set off to sunny (ahem!) Manchester to be part of Bill Boorman's next outstanding Recruitment Unconference adventure, as I take my place amongst the track leaders of #truManchester, at the Manchester Conference Centre; but equally thrilled just to be there.
I went to #truLondon in February, as a recruitment veteran, but a social media/modern technology novice – and gained outstanding insight into where the recruitment industry should be going, but isn't. Others will say that it is getting there. I would still say… slowly, very, very slowly. Much of February was a blur, but I met some good people, and heard some great theory, and the reality of it all is that there were some real case studies, but they were in the US – which is a hell of a big country. I go to #truManchester a little wiser about Social Media and how in can impact recruitment effectiveness, but still bemused by the lack of take-up by the recruitment industry.
If you are a recruiter in and around the Manchester/North West region, and you are conscious of how the communications world is overtaking the recruitment industry, and fast – you should be there. If you can't be there – get on Twitter and follow the hashtag #truManchester. Social Media is not a fad, nor is it a waste of sales time; Technology is developing, and it is relevant to recruitment; The Candidate landscape is constantly moving, and we need to catch that fast train. These things matter, to good insightful recruitment professionals.
The format is easy. No conference speakers, no big auditoriums, no presentations, no gurus – it's all about discussions in the form of `tracks` led by some facilitators, but in an open discussion format. No man or woman is more or less an `expert` than any other. Frankly it's blissfully unstarry and grounded.
I shall be one of the Track Leaders on the subjects of `The Future of Recruiting` with Jennifer McClure and Mervyn Dinnen, and `Social Media Circus` with Glenn Le Santo and Jennifer McClure again. I shall bring my clown hat especially for the latter track. But I look forward to chewing the fat over some other great subjects on an awesome agenda.
All details of the event can be found at the website: http://trumanchester.wordpress.com/.
I'll be here to review on the `other side`…

Fees and Funding Opportunities
PhD funding for 2017-18
As a postgraduate student at the University of St Andrews you will be expected to pay tuition fees every year that you are in attendance. Visit the University's PG Fees and Funding page for more information.

According to multiple outlets, the NCAA Committee on Infractions will reveal their decision on Ole Miss on Friday morning. The university will receive the decision at 8:30am, the public will get a chance to read it around 10:30am on NCAA.com.
The Rebels are charged with 21 total violations, 15 are of the Level 1 variety (most serious). They met with the COI in September in Covington, Kentucky. Athletic director Ross Bjork, head coach Matt Luke, chancellor Jeffrey Vitter, assistant coach Maurice Harris, former head coach Hugh Freeze, former assistant Barney Farrar, and former assistant Chris Kiffin were among the notables to appear at the two-day hearing.
Mississippi State LB Leo Lewis also attended the hearing. The NCAA gave him immunity for his testimony on Rebel recruiting as long as he told the truth. He's noted in Allegations 9 and 16.
Ole Miss accepts that 14 of the 21 violations happened but contested the other seven. Some of the infractions that the University argued were head coach responsibility and lack of institutional control.
The hearing process worked similar to a court case. The NCAA enforcement staff acted as the prosecution and presented their evidence. Ole Miss was akin to the defendant, presenting their evidence and documents of their own. The Committee on Infractions got to ask questions to both sides of the case.

A concise version of the allegations are below. The charges that Ole Miss contested are in bold.

The primary objective of the pediatric development program was to evaluate the safety profile of NEXIUM in patients 1 to 11 years of age1
Experience with NEXIUM in pediatric patients with erosive esophagitis (EE)
*Data from a phase III, multicenter, randomized, open-label to treatment, double-blinded to dose, parallel-group study evaluating the safety and clinical outcome of NEXIUM in patients aged 1 to 11 years with GERD, treated once daily with NEXIUM 5 mg, NEXIUM 10 mg, or NEXIUM 20 mg for 8 weeks. Dosing was determined by patient weight. A total of 109 patients of both sexes with endoscopically proven GERD were enrolled, with 101 patients completing the study. Of the 109 patients, 53 had EE at baseline (51 had mild, 1 moderate, and 1 severe).1
Patients were considered healed if their final follow-up endoscopy showed no signs of erosions.
†Among all patients studied who had a follow-up endoscopy (n=45), overall resolution of EE was 88.9% (n=40) across varying grades of EE.

Provisional Patent Application by Dave Korpi
I will create your entire Provisional Patent Application, PPA, including the elements of the more formal non provisional patent application, NPA, only without the
claims elements as these are not required or even desirable in a PPA. We will work together so that I understand your inventive idea and with that understanding
I will be able to draft the PPA so that it will be easy for an attorney to convert it to an NPA. Your PPA will have the following elements and be in a very similar format
to an NPA such as an all too familiar bolt keeper toilet flange. See the video below to get an idea of the scope of the work.
With regards to the drawings...
If necessary, I will create and or edit your drawings for your Provisional Patent Application so that you will have a properly drafted Provisional Patent Application.
If necessary, I will make a 3D model of your inventive idea and from that make sufficient 2D drawings of your invention with numbers to each element.
The drawings of the PPA will be LINE drawings similar to these shown below and in the all too familiar bolt keeper toilet flange.
You and I will be in email and either phone or Skype contact and I will give you update videos on the progress so that you can see where your project is.
When it comes time to convert your PPA to an NPA I will also be able to give you connections to good attorneys who will draft your NPA for a fair and reasonable fee.
Note: Does not include the filing with the USPTO. You may file what I provide or I can do it with the filing service I provide based on either Micro or Small entity.
Most folks will use the Micro Entity Filing here: Provisional Patent Filing Micro Entity or if you are Small Entity here: Provisional Patent Filing Small Entity
There are no refunds on this service.

Political UpdatePosted: November 5, 2013 Filed under: Uncategorized 4 Comments
I promised more political posts, but lost enthusiasm for that task.
Here is a current post on my issues blog about the November 2013 election: Partisan Labels and Ann Arbor Politics.
As I note in one of the updates, it is clear that the newly adult generation (often called the Millennials) is beginning to flex their muscles. They want to be in on the action. I predict that this is going to cause some waves in Ann Arbor politics in the next few years.
4 Comments on "Political Update"
Most of the people on the linked Mark Maynard post are well over 30. I'm 48, an Ann Arbor resident for 30 years, an OWS homeowner for 25. Please don't assume all progressives who use social media are Millenials. Most millenials I know are not tuned into local politics.
Almost everyone I know active in Chip Smith's campaign is just around my age–48. If there are young people engaged that may have to do with the local chapter of 350.org. Counsel rejected a divestment proposal put forward by 350 via the ecology center. Millenials certainly understand that we need to prepare for a very different future– one that actively addresses and anticipates climate change. Every poster who made their identities known on the linked Mark Maynard blog and its internal FB post was well over 30.

Former Texas Governor Rick Perry is joining Sen. Ted Cruz as he travels around Iowa ahead of Thursday's Republican presidential debate.
Perry is expected to make 10 campaign stop for Cruz before the Fox News debate. He ended his presidential campaign last fall, then threw his support behind Cruz on Monday.
In an interview with Politico, Perry explained why he's supporting Cruz:
"You'll have with Ted Cruz that same result of, senators and others in the Washington establishment that are mad at him, find him to be hard to work with, they will find a way to work with him because they know he means what he says he means," he said.
"Gov. Scott Walker, Bobby Jindal, Rick Perry, Jeb's barely making an impact out there — those are very skilled, very successful, very experienced governors," Perry said. "But the electorate doesn't want that. That's why we have elections, why we democratically select leaders."
"He knows he's going to surround himself with people who do have that experience, and I'm very satisfied that on Day 1, he will be ready to be commander-in-chief," Perry said, "Partly because of the time he's going to spend in learning what he doesn't know, but he's also surrounding himself with people who are extraordinarily capable and wise.""I really didn't want to talk about policy, I didn't want to talk politics, I didn't want to talk philosophy," he said of their meeting last month. "I wanted to talk about him, who he was, see if I could get a handle on Ted Cruz the man, not Cruz the caricature I'd seen through the political lens. What I found was a very different person than what I had been led to believe."

CMC/DHK's Women's Health Department Receives Grant from March of Dimes
October 03, 2013
Keene, NH
Cheshire Medical Center/Dartmouth-Hitchcock Keene (CMC/DHK) recently received a generous grant from the New Hampshire Chapter of the March of Dimes Community Grants Program in support of the CenteringPregnancy® Program of the Dorothy Penniman Hubbard Center for Women's Health. The NH Chapter March of Dimes Community Grants Program invests in projects that further the mission of the March of Dimes, supporting national and state objectives and reducing disparities in birth outcomes. The funds were distributed as part of a one-million-dollar grant given to the March of Dimes by the WellPoint Foundation, Inc. to support CenteringPregnancy® programs nationwide in order to increase access to and utilization of prenatal care services. "We are pleased to be in partnership with the Hubbard Center for Women's Health. They have a strong commitment to improving prenatal care using the group model, and it is working," said Abby Rogers, NH March of Dimes Director of Program Services.
The CenteringPregnancy® Program is a group model of care that integrates the three major components of care: health assessment, education, and support, into a unified program within a group setting facilitated by a trained health practitioner. In this setting, 8 to 12 pregnant women meet together to learn care skills, participate in a facilitated discussion, and develop a support network with other group members. Each group meets for a total of 10 sessions throughout their pregnancies and for a period of time after the birth. Cheshire Medical Center/Dartmouth-Hitchcock Keene implemented this group model in 2008. During the two-hour sessions, participants can discuss many more issues than possible during a traditional appointment, and the medical responses sought by one woman will undoubtedly benefit others. The CMC/DHK Centering Pregnancy® Program participants proclaim positive experiences in this group setting.
"We believe the Centering Pregnancy® model of group prenatal care creates superior patient satisfaction and improved outcomes compared to traditional individual prenatal care," said Jessica Densmore, Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM) at CMC/DHK. With the supporting grant funds, she and her Womens Health colleagues will conduct a prenatal care evaluation study to include a comparison of outcomes of traditional individual prenatal care to the CenteringPregnancy® group model.
Learn More about the Centering Pregnancy® Program in the Pregnancy & Birth Section of our website.
Cheshire Medical Center/Dartmouth-Hitchcock Keene is a nonprofit community hospital and clinic with a mission to lead our community to become the nation's healthiest through our clinical and service excellence, collaboration, and compassion for every patient, every time. Founded by CMC/D-HK, Healthy Monadnock 2020 (formerly Vision 2020) is a community-wide health initiative designed to actively engage the citizens of Cheshire County in the process of becoming the nation's healthiest community by 2020.

KEY WEST — U.S. Sen. Paula Hawkins and chicken magnate Frank Perdue were on hand Monday as Mel Fisher's exuberant band of treasure salvors continued to store away the bounty from the newly discovered silver bonanza of the Spanish galleon Atocha.
Even American Express got into the act. Fisher, 63, said the company offered to sell some of the estimated 250,000 silver coins from the Atocha for $1,000 each through an insert in credit card bills.

Chapter 13: Geographies of Belief Summary and Analysis
How do we tell the difference between the true and false patterns that we develop and tell the difference between real agents and the imaginary ones? When Ptolemy wrote "terra Australis" at the bottom of a second-century world map, it declared to the world that undiscovered worlds were out there and led to the age of exploration and discovery.
Ptolemy's note gave credence to the existence of new lands yet undiscovered. It provided something for explorers to believe in. Columbus' belief that there were new worlds across the Atlantic led to the discovery of the Americas. However, when Columbus first landed in the New World he thought it was Asia. Marco Polo's reports of Asian lands were sketchy and there was no knowledge of a land mass between Western Europe and Asia. Therefore, Columbus used...

Cook confirmed the news, which had been expected after he failed to take part in Tuesday's training session, in a press conference in Ahmedabad.
"Steven will not be available for tomorrow's Test", said Cook. "It would be too big a risk."
England are already contemplating a gamble on Stuart Broad's fitness as he has been troubled by a bruised heel.
Cook did not confirm who would replace Finn at the Sarwar Patel Stadium but seamer Tim Bresnan is the favourite to get the nod.
Fellow seamer Graham Onions and spinner Monty Panesar would be alternatives to Bresnan.
One bowler England will have available to them is Graeme Swann, with the off-spinner back in India following an emergency dash home to tend to his ill baby daughter.
Swann returned home last week after his daughter Charlotte was taken into hospital, but he has now rejoined the team ahead of the four-Test series.
In his column in The Sun, Swann wrote: "I am now totally focused on the first Test after flying home because our little baby was unwell.
"Two long-haul flights in the space of five days is not ideal preparation for the opening match of a huge series for England - but some things are more important than cricket."
Although Swann missed several days of practice, the spinner insisted he feels ready to go.
"I had sleep flying back to India and any jet-lag has gone. I'm fresh and the ball has been coming out well in practice," he wrote.
"I genuinely believe we can win but we must play better against spin than we did in the three Tests against Pakistan earlier this year."
Much of the focus in the build-up to the Test has surrounded Kevin Pietersen's return to the team for the first time since he was dropped for sending 'provocative' text messages to members of the South Africa team.
Swann has welcomed Pietersen back to the fold and believes he can make a big difference in India.
"I hope we'll play sensible but aggressive cricket," he said.
"Nobody can be more destructive, of course, than Kevin Pietersen and his return to the dressing room has been very smooth.
"I think that was always going to be the case after those meetings with him in Oxford before the tour. That effectively killed off anything that happened during the summer and it's been the normal mickey-taking and banter with Kevin.
"In any dressing room, there are always leg-pulling comments. Although I must be honest and say Kevin is not the butt of most of the jokes because there are one or two players specially reserved for that!
"Now we want the cricket to do the talking. And I'm sure Kevin feels the same way."
England captain Cook would not be drawn on his plans to replace Finn in the bowling line-up, and resented the accusation that he was picking from the also-rans.
He told Sky Sports News: "I wouldn't call them back-up bowlers, they're all vying for a place to play in this XI, to be lucky enough to play for England.
"They've all worked hard to get used to these conditions and as selectors we've got a tough decision to make."
Cook admitted he had not been out to check on the condition of the wicket at Ahmedabad since yesterday morning.
"Wickets change a lot in 24 hours," he added. "Yesterday it looked quite a dry wicket and I think it's been relaid so not much first-class cricket has been played on it."

There almost aren't any barriers to entry into the eCommerce business. Secure and feature rich open source shopping carts, cheap hosting and effortless payment integration have made selling online a piece of cake. Once you have the inventory in place, you are ready to rake in cash as soon as the DNS propagation is done.
Ready to use, hosted storefronts from the likes of Shopify have made getting into online selling far more trivial. When the barriers to entry are virtually nil in a business, its the niche one chooses to operate in and the creative marketing campaigns that'll decide their success.
Talking about creativity, a creative products marketplace sounds like a better business to be in rather than competing with the big box retailers. There can only be so much discount you can offer on diapers, books and shaving kits right? If that makes sense, you should try your hand at running your own Etsy-style site using Storenvy.

U.K. Regulator Poised To Change Rules for Foreign Banks
New Approach Will Make It Easier for Foreign Banks to Open UK Branches
LONDON—British regulators are poised to make it easier for foreign banks to set up shop in the U.K., a reversal of years of intensified supervision following the financial crisis.
The U.K.'s Prudential Regulation Authority, the primary overseer of banks operating here, plans to unveil a proposed new approach Wednesday to supervising the U.K. arms of foreign banks. The overall message will be that it will become easier for foreign banks to open lightly regulated arms known as branches, assuming the banks don't collect retail...

My dearest Friend
A memorable day in our Annals, which is all I Shall Say of politicks here, the Season is very variable from hot to cold and cold to Hot, and much too dry; it has not raind since my poor furniture had such a Share of it, the Trees, just begin to Bud, and the ground to put on Some little verdure. Faxon moved off two days ago and Shaw removed in, we are getting things arranged as well as we can. I have purchased a Yoke of oxen (and an other cow for Thayers place). I have agreed to take the Waggon and the Bull at the apprizment tho much too high, the Yearling calves were apprized so out of Reason, at forty Shillings pr Head, that the Dr. thought best to take only our half. There has been Sad Havock made with the fencing Stuff by Faxon I Suppose. There will be no Hay to divide if there is enough to last till the 20 of May, which makes me rather Backward in purchaseing on two more cows, which will compleat the Number we want. Joy has the three Cows I have bought with him, and I removed Salt Hay from here for them, and bought half a load of Fresh, our Ground is all prepaird for the Seed and tomorrow we Sow. We have carted what manure we thought we could Spair upon the ground, first having it chopt over according to your old custom.

Your Mother has been with me this day. She rode out twice before, and She appears to recover as fast as a person 86 years old could expect to. She desired me to remember her kind Love to you, and to thank you for your good wife, to whom She bids me Say under providence She is indebted for the prolongation of her Life.

On the one hand, more big box stores are staying open for Thanksgiving. At the same time, an increasing number of workers are pushing back, protesting having to work on Black Thursday.
Welcome to Holiday Shop-a-palooza 2017. Don't forget to bring your smartphone, your tablet and plenty of plastic.
Who doesn't love a door-busting, fight-inducing, gotta-have-it-now deal?
The better question, as you set your Thanksgiving day plans, is who does love a holiday?
Where do we even begin?
By Kelly Ross
Women's rights were at the forefront of this year's presidential election in the wake of Hillary Clinton's historic campaign and President Elect Donald Trump's sexist, misogynistic and outright bigoted rhetoric. Given the blatant disrespect and depression of women being rampant in the news, it is painfully clear that the fight for gender equality is far from over.
Shortly after Labor Day, a segment of the consumer masses traditionally start flooding Brian Rich's Facebook page, telling the Boise Idaho-based marketing executive what they will not be doing on Thanksgiving. They will not be shopping, which is exactly the message that Rich, the founder of the Boycott Black Thursday movement, is hoping to send.
By Michael Messina
It seems appropriate that Veterans Day and Thanksgiving fall within a couple weeks of each other on the calendar. Veterans are high up on the list of what we are thankful for, day in and day out. It's why the world of labor tries to take care of them as best they can when looking for civilian employment. And it's programs like the Department of Labor's Veteran's Employment and Training Service (VETS) that lead the way.
By Michael MessinaThe biggest comfort-food spread of the year is about to grace our tables with its rich hues of golden brown, bright orange and cranberry red. And the Union Chef here at Labor 411 has reminded us that this is a great opportunity to eat our way to a better America. The shopping list for Thanksgiving is always a long one and we've put ours together with Turkey Day necessities that will support good jobs.
By Spike Dolomite Ward
As the Development Director of the Labor 411 Foundation, I've been planning on writing a blog for Thanksgiving that would shine some extra light on expressing gratitude through building community and ethical consumerism.
This year the Mall of America in Bloomington, MN announced that it would be closed on Thanksgiving Day. In a move that could cost the nation's largest shopping mall potential revenue, the Mall of America operators made it clear that they value people over profits… something that is far too uncommon these days.
Black Friday has been creeping into Thanksgiving for a few years now and the farther the hours roll back, the more we cringe here at Labor 411.

Radio repair form
* Please note that the radio repair process has changed as of May, 2017. See the form for updated submission instructions.
Worcester County operates an 800 Mhz analog/digital trunked radio system designed and built by M/A-Com, a division of Tyco Industries. The EDACS system provides clear radio communications for not only the County's public safety agencies but also most of the other county departments. Technology in the system allows for Worcester County units to seamlessly operate between the county system and a similar system in Ocean City .
The modular design will enable Worcester County to incorporate future technologies by expanding the system as requirements grow and new technologies are developed.
800 MHz Frequencies
- 855.96250
- 856.46250
- 857.46250
- 857.7125
- 858.4625
- 858.71250
- 859.46250
- 859.71250
- 860.46250
- 860.71250
VHF Paging Frequencies
- 155.100 (Fire/EMS Dispatch)
- 155.865 (Fire & EMS working talk group repeater)
Maryland Eastern Shore Interoperability Network
In September 2003 Worcester County was awarded a $5.6 million dollar federal grant to develop an interoperable communications project. After a year and a half MESIN was unveiled at the Maryland Emergency Management Agency's (MEMA) emergency operations center in Reisterstown . MESIN allows public safety agencies in all nine Maryland Eastern Shore Counties, and Ocean City, to communicate with each other through a M/ACom Network First® system. Field units can switch to a "calling" channel monitored at MEMA and then be assigned one of four "tactical" channels for as long as needed. MEMA and all the county 911 centers on the Shore have the ability to activate and de-activate a series of repeaters in each county to produce the interoperable link.
Future expansion of the system is expected to link MESIN with the Central Maryland Area Regional Communications (CMARC) system. This would allow units in one of the five Central Maryland counties to communicate with Eastern Shore units.

On 3 July 2017, just hours before MiFID II's transposition deadline passed, the FCA published its Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II Implementation – Policy Statement II (PS17/14). In this document, the FCA sets out its final position on the conduct of business rules, many of which will significantly impact the way your firm carries out its commercial activities. It follows PS17/5 published in March, which covered market structure and organisational requirements. PS17/14 runs to some 1068 pages (including the final amended text for the FCA Handbook).
In this article, we attempt to boil this down to the most significant changes to the applicability of MiFID II to certain categories of firms, and run through the most important clarifications to the rules themselves. We plan to follow this up in coming weeks with further in-depth analyses of specific MiFID II topics, including paying for research and transaction reporting.
This article – the latest in ACA Compliance (Europe)'s series MiFID II: understanding and practical preparation – explains what the changes are, how they might impact on firms and offers guidance on the steps firms can and should be taking now in order to ensure they remain compliant post-January 2018.
Collective Portfolio Managers ("CPM") – AIFMs (hedge) and UCITS managers
The FCA has decided that the enhanced Best Execution rules will not apply to UK AIFMs, including the requirement to publish the top 5 execution venues for each class of financial instrument (under RTS 28). This exemption applies to both full-scope and small AIFMs, and also includes CPMI firms (AIFMs with MiFID top-up permissions). UCITS management companies will, however, remain subject to these requirements acknowledging the greater need to protect retail investors in UCITS vehicles.
CPMs – Other AIFMs (Private Equity, Venture Capital and Real Estate)
Managers of these strategies have been taken out of the Paying for Research regime, with the FCA accepting the argument that such firms are not susceptible to inducements incurred in a dealing commission context. Managers trading in non-listed instruments are also taken out of the obligation to tape-record relevant conversations.
MiFID II investment firms (buy side)
Some MiFID investment managers (as well as CPMs) will benefit from the FCA's comparatively narrow interpretation of the tape-recording regime, with only calls directly relating to, or intended to result in, the execution of a transaction deemed to be in scope.
MiFID II investment firms (sell side)
Brokers dealing with 3rd country managers (those based outside the EU) will not be required to price research separately from execution and other services provided to such firms.
Inducements and paying for research
The longest and probably most eagerly awaited chapter in the Policy Statement has several useful points of clarification on the new paying for research regime.
Other inducements
Best execution
UCITS management companies: UCITS management companies will be subject to MiFID II's Best Execution regime. For the avoidance of doubt, MiFID investment managers which manage UCITS funds under delegation will also be subject to these requirements.
Recording of telephones and electronic communications
Complaints handling
Client categorisation
Information and reporting to clients
Product governance
Apart from a subsidiary consultation also initiated last week, PS17/14 represents the FCA's last major body of work in implementing the MiFID II reforms. We anticipate further guidance from the FCA emerging from its industry working groups, as well as more Q&As from the EU regulator ESMA. However, these are likely to amount to clarifications rather than substantive changes of direction. Firms must therefore proceed with implementation of MiFID II on the basis of what we know now, rather than holding out for situation-specific clarity.

You Can't Detect What You Can't See: Illuminating the Entire Kill Chain
A strange thing has been happening lately. On political, commercial and social issues where people on the Internet are broadly united, the Internet is forcing opponents to back down.
Has the Internet become invincible?
Hardly. But as a force in the world, the Internet seems to be getting more powerful, thanks to the growing popularity and use of social networks.
Fifteen years ago, everybody used to say that the Internet was a powerful medium that could mount unstoppable opposition to big governments and corporations. It wasn't really true back then. But it seems to have become more true recently.
The most recent and stark example of this power is the whole SOPA and PIPA conflict.
The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in the House and the Protect IP Act (PIPA) were broadly favored by Congress. These measures would have essentially given the federal government the ability to apply economic embargos on web sites accused of infringing copyright and also force ISPs to block access to those sites.
Normally legislation with this much backing in Washington would sail through to become the law of the land.
But a broad consensus formed on the Internet against the bills. The online protests and criticism of them grew so overwhelming that Congress actually backed down. So did a range of companies that initially supported the bill, including domain registrar Go Daddy.
A similar thing happens when the Internet is united against corporations.
Back in November, a researcher discovered facts about software sold by a company called Carrier IQ installed on many smartphone handset models that suggested the company was logging user actions and even keystrokes. The company sent a nastygram to the researcher threatening to sue.
Online outrage over the scandal forced Carrier IQ to drop their lawsuit and apologize to the researcher. It also caused the handset industry to disavow any relationship with the company and carriers like Sprint to announce that they were dropping the company like a hot rock.
Even non-profit organizations are not immune from being smacked down by the Internet.
A non-profit called Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the most well-known organization fighting breast cancer. Last month they cut funding to Planned Parenthood that paid for lower income women to have anti-cancer screenings. Many believed the reason was Planned Parenthood's inclusion of abortions as part of its range of reproductive healthcare services. The person most closely associated with the decision was Komen vice president Karen Handel.
Handel claims the decision to stop funds to Planned Parenthood resulted from a policy to not fund organizations facing criminal investigation, and not because of the abortion issue.
Regardless, Internet bloggers and social media users broadly denounced the move, and mounted incredible pressure against the organization and its vice president -- until they reversed their decision and Handel was forced to resign.
What's going on here? Has the Internet become an unstoppable force that wins all battles?

ebook gadgets help popularise literary classicsDecember 27th, 2010 - 2:27 pm ICT by IANS
London, Dec 27 (IANS) Literary classics by Charles Dickens and Jane Austen are enjoying a revival, thanks to ebook gadgets like the Amazon's Kindle.
Kindles were the biggest selling products this Christmas, Amazon affirmed, as Britain finally embraced the ebook revolution.
Owners of ebook gadgets like the Kindle and the Apple iPad can snap up the works of many dead literary greats without paying a penny because they are out of copyright, reports the Telegraph.
Coupled with the proliferation of these devices, titles such as "Pride and Prejudice" and "Treasure Island" have shot to the top of the ebook charts.
The most popular e-books over the Christmas period were Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes", Charles Dickens's "A Christmas Carol" and Bram Stoker's "Dracula".
Even Homer's "The Iliad" made it into Amazon's top 20 of free Kindle ebooks last week. Amazon revealed that its 109 pounds Kindle devices were the online retailer's biggest selling products this Christmas.
John Sutherland, emeritus professor of English at the University College London, described the phenomenon as "the saviour of book reading".
"We are now creating an immense public library without walls," he said. Random House publishers, whose authors include Ian McEwan, Bill Bryson and Joanna Trollope, reported an 800 percent rise in ebook sales this year.
Current estimates suggest ebook sales account for two percent of the book market, however, the figure is expected to jump sharply next year.
The arrival of Google's ebookstore, potentially making millions of literary works available online, is hoped to have a large impact on ebook sales.

STATE – New Jersey residents who lost jobs during the recession were once able to collect unemployment benefits for up to 99 weeks, but the maximum benefit period has been shrinking.
Though New Jersey's unemployment rate averaged 8.6 percent over the last three months for which data is available, down just one percentage point from the worst of the recession, Garden State jobseekers are now eligible for a maximum of 63 weeks of benefits.
Qualifying workers are eligible for up to 26 weeks of state-funded unemployment benefits, which must be exhausted before they can receive up to 37 additional weeks under a temporary federal Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) program that was enacted in 2008.
As a state's unemployment rate drops, the number of weeks of EUC benefit eligibility also declines. When New Jersey's three-month unemployment rate average was at 9 percent, the program offered 47 weeks of benefit, for a maximum of 73 weeks of benefits for qualifying job seekers.
States with three-month average unemployment rates between 6 and 7 percent qualify for 28 additional weeks of benefits under the EUC program; states with three-month average unemployment rates below 6 percent qualify for 14 additional weeks.
Some New Jersey unemployed workers were able to collect an additional 20 weeks of benefits under the federal government's Extended Benefits program, but that ended on July 7, 2012 in New Jersey.
