This great new measure was taken by Haiti Minister of Tourism Stéphanie Balmir Villedrouin
The Haitian Minister of Tourism says...
We must arrange the sidewalks of hotels and restaurants in Haiti... Merchant and beggars should not be present when you leave a restaurant... You should not have 5-10 young people who come to ask you for money... It is important that I have security officer which can reassure the customer, who is able to inform the tourist as well...
There are Tourist Police in all tourist destinations, this is not something we invented, the Haitian Minister of Tourism says...
Two thumbs up for Haiti Minsier of Tourism Villedrouin.
Tap Taps - Hand Painted Buses In Haiti
A tap tap is beautifully decorated hand painted bus or pick-up truck that serves as a share taxi in Haiti.
Tap taps are used in Haiti mainly by locals because visitors to Haiti are warned by their host countries not to ride on tap taps due to overcrowding and stuff.
You should see the taxis in the Dominican Republic!
They can fit 6 passengers plus the driver in an old beat-up Toyota Corolla!
Hey... You can always get a taxi all to yourself in Haiti but if you want to mingle with the super friendly Haitian people and save some money at the same time, hop in a tap tap.
Why Haitian Tap Tap Owners Spend So Much To Paint Them
Some buses in Haiti are painted with giant figures, portraits of Jesus, rapper Tupac Shakur, Barack Obame, a naked woman in ecstasy. Others depict American Airlines planes or Voodoo imagery.
If you stand on any corner in Port-au-Prince and watch the buses go by, you feel like you can get direct access to the Haitian subconscious.
But there's an economic puzzle buried in all the artistry.
All of this painting is really expensive... So why do the Haitian Tap Tap owners do it?
"If you don't paint it like that, people will not get on it," a bus driver says.
Fresh painting sends potential passengers a signal: Whoever owns this bus spends a lot of money taking care of it...

Port-Au-Prince Haiti International Airport
Toussaint Louverture International Airport is an international airport located in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
Haiti's main International airports was not always known as the Toussaint Louverture International Airport.
Developed with grant money from the American government, the airport opened in 1965 as Francois Duvalier International Airport, named after Haitian president Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier (1957-1971).
Following the resignation of Duvalier's son and successor Jean Claude Duvalier in 1986, the airport was renamed Port-au-Prince International, I used to hear it called Airport Mais Gate.
In 2003 they renamed it Toussaint L'Overture International Airport, Let us hope they stop screwing with the name of the airport from now on!

BSOD iastor.sys
I was surfing youtube one day and my computer suddenly restarded. On startup I got a bluescreen telling me DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OF_EQUAL, iastor.sys etc.
I can still not start my computer normally. I have now successfully started up in safe mode with network. However this does not work all the time. It seems like it works when I restore to a previous restore point, but I get a blue screen when I try normal start up.
perfmon /report didn't work, but I have attatched Windows_NT6_BSOD_jcgriff2.
My specs are:
Sony Vaio VGN-Z530N/G, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 Retail, Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 2,4 Ghz, 4 GB RAM, 250 GB HDD.
I hope there are some skilled people here, who can help me out

Hi johnje and Welcome.
Has this only started recently?
Download TDSSKiller and run it in Safe Mode.
I'll look into your (latest) dump files but the internet is a bit slow tonight so may take a little while.

Try this free scan: Free Virus Scan - Kaspersky Lab
Do not attempt to remove any viruses at this point. What we're looking for is to see if you have the TDSS rootkit. If so, removal will probably render your system unbootable (but we can fix that)
Please visit Windows Update and get all available updates.
I suggest starting all troubleshooting with the following diagnostic tests. They'll save you a lot of time and heartache if there is a hardware failure, and you'll have the disks on hand in case you need them in the future:
H/W Diagnostics:
Please start by running these bootable hardware diagnostics:
Memory Diagnostics (read the details at the link)
HD Diagnostic (read the details at the link)
Also, wireless USB modems have a history of giving BSOD's - especially when using Vista drivers on Win7 systems. I suggest replacing the USB modem with an "inside the case" wireless device. They are much more robust, reliable, and are faster. In the event that you can't do this, then install the latest Win7 drivers for the USB modem - DO NOT use Vista drivers
- Please update these drivers from the device manufacturer's website.
- DO NOT use Windows Update or the Update Drivers function of Device Manager.
- Windows Update exceptions may be noted below for Windows drivers:

Thanks a lot for your quick response and effort. I really appreciate it.
I can not even boot in to safe mode now, and i get new bluescreens with errors like cng.sys and ntfs.sys. I've pretty much decided on reinstalling my windows. Luckily I was able to do a backup. I have burned a win 7 dvd, and it is working fine on this computer. However, when I try to boot up from the dvd on my own computer, I get a black screen with a blinking white line for a while, and then "Bootmgr image is corrupt. The system cannot boot"
I've tried startup repair via f8 and windows repair, and bootrec /RebuildBcd in command prompt. I still have no luck booting from the dvd and this is starting to get quite frustrating. Anyone have any tips?

I suggest the bootable hardware diagnostics that I posted in my previous post. IMO this sounds like your hard drive is going bad (iastor.sys and ntfs.sys are both related to your HDD).

Doxford Hall Hotel has received the highest accolade in being awarded four Red Stars.
This prestigious award is only given to the very best hotels in the UK.
Doxford Hall now joins an exclusive list of 55 hotels in the UK who have achieved this status.
With 4 Red Stars, Doxford Hall really does stand out from the crowd as AA Hotel Services Manager, Simon Numphud, said: "The criteria for AA Red Stars are consistent excellence in all areas of a hotel's operation, and Doxford Hall joins an elite group of top performers within the hotel industry. It is encouraging to see that there are still hotels pushing the boundaries and striving for high standards and excellent quality."
This 31 bedroomed Doxford Hall Hotel and Spa is a magnificent Georgian mansion, set in its own extensive grounds. Attention to detail is evident throughout and earlier this year the restaurant was awarded 2 AA rosettes.
Operating as a hotel for less than five years it has, in this short length of time, received a handful of accolades, including North East Small Hotel of the Year and 4 Gold Stars for the quality of its staff, accommodation and public areas.
On being presented with the award at the Hilton Park Lane London, Eric Kortenbach Doxford Hall's Operations Director said: "To receive 4 Red Stars is a tremendous achievement and one which would not have been possible without the exceptional hard work and commitment of every single member of staff, who work together to deliver the highest of standards in service. This is something that everyone at Doxford Hall has been working towards from the outset and it is an absolute privilege to accept this award on their behalf.
"Not only is this a major milestone for the hotel, it is also a major milestone for Northumberland."
Doxford Hall is one of the venues for the prestigious Northumberland Music Festival, and is scheduled to host a full length performance of La Boheme, this November.
Jude Leitch, Tourism Development Manager for Northumberland Tourism said: "We are absolutely delighted that Doxford Hall is one of our flagship hotels. They have always been great ambassadors for our local food producers and have always provided fantastic levels of service in all areas."
The AA has been recommending hotels since 1908, but in 1912 adopted a more critical approach to the hotels listed in its handbook.
The AA's Secretary then, Stenson Cooke, had once been a wine and spirits salesman and felt that the star rating of brandy would be familiar yardstick to apply to hotels. From then on the AA star rating for hotels was born. Establishments are awarded between one and five stars depending on set criteria following a visit from an AA Hotel Inspector.

The Top 60: Brand Pharm
Many healthcare-focused agencies do back flips to portray themselves as "one-stop shops," even if their offerings in certain areas—the digital space, usually—are nowhere near as evolved as those of their competitors. The Publicis-owned Brand Pharm, however, ranks among the handful that rejects this positioning.
That's not to say that Brand Pharm hasn't evolved its capabilities to accommodate client demands, or restructured in a way to better manage its business. In the last year the agency divvied up creative responsibilities between executive creative director, art, David Grillo and executive creative director, copy, Noel Castro. But Brand Pharm is quick to acknowledge its eagerness to work alongside its sister companies.
"We utilize as many Publicis partnerships as we can," says Brand Pharm managing director Kathy Magnuson. "It would be foolish not to take advantage of all these amazing resources we have at our disposal. We're not so proud to think we can do it all ourselves."
One such arrangement led to Brand Pharm's biggest win during the last year: the global AOR assignment for ConvaTec, encompassing corporate work as well as responsibility for the ostomy, skin-care and wound-care product lines. To nab the account, Brand Pharm teamed with Medicus London. Medicus serves as global agency for the wound business, while Brand Pharm handles the ostomy and skin-care lines; other Publicis firms contribute in other markets.
While Magnuson acknowledges that coordinating these partnerships proved challenging in the past, she says that technology has made them far more workable. It doesn't hurt that clients have warmed to them, either.
"What you're seeing is that they want the best people and service. They don't care where it comes from," she explains. Other jointly handled accounts during the last year include the "Beat Your Risk" Super Bowl campaign for King Pharmaceuticals and the American Heart Association (Brand Pharm and consumer shop Glow Worm) and digital work for Solstice Neurosciences (Brand Pharm and iMed).
Overall, Brand Pharm won four out of six new-business pitches over the last 12 months. The company added work from Galderma Laboratories on the Differin, MetroGel and Tri-Luma brands. Teva Pharmaceuticals tapped Brand Pharm for its Tev-Tropin growth hormone, plus Solstice brought the firm on board for work on Myobloc.
On the flip side, one of the two pitches in which Brand Pharm didn't succeed was the Remicade agency consolidation—a tough pill to swallow, given that Brand Pharm had worked on the product since its launch. The firm also took a hit when the courts ruled that patent protection for King's Altace had expired. Not surprisingly, its promo budget was quickly slashed.
Despite the two losses, Brand Pharm has held up well in recent months. Magnuson says that the company remains "about even" with where it was at this time last year, with overall headcount still around 75.
The agency will continue to push forward on behalf of another brand: its own. "I think we're still a relatively new name to people, so it's been a little bit of a challenge to get people to know us," Magnuson says. "Hopefully the work we're doing for our clients is speaking as loud as anything else we'll do."

Relentless Growth in New Applications Is Outpacing Server Professionals' Ability to Scale and Meet Service Levels, With Consolidation Through Virtualization Viewed as the Solution
NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - November 29, 2007) - TheInfoPro (TIP), www.theinfopro.net, an
independent research network and leading supplier of market intelligence
for the Information Technology (IT) industry, today announced that coping
with data center environmental issues is the top pain point of Fortune 1000
(F1000) and Midsize Enterprise (MSE) Server professionals. Server pros
report that consolidation is being driven by space, heat, power, and
cooling constraints, resulting from continuing large-scale growth in new
applications and demand for new servers.
To view a rich media presentation of findings, visit:
According to TIP's Wave 5 Server Study -- which provides continuous market
data on technologies, industry opportunities, and trends in the Server
market -- despite environmental issues being the top pain point, only half
(51%) of Server decision makers indicate that environmental cost is
captured and weighed as part of system evaluation. Further, of those who
do weigh environmental costs, only 29% include them in their calculations
of total cost of ownership. Even fewer (10%) state that they would change
vendors on the basis of power efficiencies. However, 71% of enterprise
organizations state that they will begin to factor server power consumption
into their server procurement decision-making process. While 57% believe
semiconductor efficiencies will make a meaningful impact on overall energy
demands, many now realize that data center efficiency overall is complex,
with multiple variables that must be addressed, rather than simply
entailing a product switch.
"Environmental issues have become a huge area of contention among Server
professionals as they struggle to cope with increased demand, server
sprawl, and trying to keep pace by virtualizing their server environments,"
said Bob Gill, TIP's Managing Director of Server Research. "Nearly 70% of
organizations expect the energy demands required to support IT functions to
grow over the next five years. Further, as of now, they do not see simple
solutions to this problem, although users voice hope that their incumbent
vendors will invest more heavily in energy efficiencies across their
product lines."
Over 140 F1000 and MSE end users were interviewed for the Wave 5 Server
Study, providing commentary and insight on their server adoption plans,

Mark Hughes will send out a Wales side full of wannabes with "something to prove" when they face the USA tomorrow morning in San Jose.
The Welsh chief has basked in the knowledge that Wales are back in the world's top 50 for the first time in eight years and recognised now as the UK's second best international side, leaving Scotland trailing. But it is a mainly 'C' list players who will be bidding to protect Wales' 10-match, 20-month unbeaten record when they face the Americans, who were World Cup quarter-finalists last summer.
Among Hughes' side are two players with much to prove.
For Matthew Jones it is the chance to overcome the blow of being given a free transfer by Leicester. For Jason Koumas, it is the opportunity to show he has the desire to play for his country.
Lack of patriotism is something you could never throw at Jones, but the one-time £3.5m signing has been told he can leave on a free transfer after months of injury anguish.
And then there is West Brom's Koumas, a midfielder whose nickname is "sicknote" in the Welsh camp, who has pulled out of seven of their last nine squads.
Hughes has given Koumas his final chance on this trip, but only after making a special journey to the Hawthorns earlier this month for a face-to-face with the Wrexham-born star over his debatable conduct when it comes to appearing for Wales matches.
Hughes also had a lengthy talk with Koumas' club manager Gary Megson and it is clear the midfielder, with three caps, was given an ultimatum by the Wales boss.
For Jones, a former under-21 skipper with 12 caps and a catalogue of bad luck with injuries, it is the chance to prove he is worth a new chance rather than sit out the two years left on his £25,000-a-week Leicester deal and not be in Micky Adams' plans.

Be Delicious Sparkling Apple (green) is very similar to the original, but with just a hint of added magnolia wood, sandalwood and amber for a deeper and more party appropriate scent. Golden Delicious Sparkling Apple (gold) contains notes of ginger root and plum, providing a much richer and sensual scent that perfectly complements the original; it's personally my favourite of the three as it reminds me of the scent I love so much but is perfectly suited for the evening. Be Delicious Fresh Blossom Sparkling Apple (pink) is a much girlier perfume, including notes of tangerine, pear, white woods, musk and floral attributes; the result is uplifting and comforting, without being overpowering. All three will definitely appeal to fans of the original, as well as bringing in new wearers via the incredible packaging.
Not only are all three scents decorated with a subtle glittering top, but it twists to the side and is removed to reveal the atomiser. Unlike the original design, which contains a button within the cap, these are designed to feel a little more luxurious and create a real feeling of anticipation. I normally hate anything glittery or girlie, but these appealed to even my own inner magpie - they look truly stunning on a dressing table and really provide an exquisite update to the scent I know and love. I've no doubt these will be incredibly popular when they launch this Autumn and will make incredible Christmas gifts for loved ones. Will you be rushing out to grab them?
All three scents will be available from October, exclusive to The Fragrance Shop, priced £37.00.

Gonnissen reemerges at QBIC
The inter-university venturing QBIC Fund is the successor of the Baekeland II-Fund of UGent and the BI3-fund of VUB.
Author: James Mawson
Danny Gonnissen (pictured), former head of Belgium-based industrials company Bekaert's corporate venturing unit, has re-emerged as investment partner at QBIC Venture Partners, manager of the €30m university venturing fund in the region.
Ghent University (UGent) and the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), in collaboration with the University of Antwerp, set up the inter-university seed capital fund earlier in the month. The fund will also support industrial spinouts if they are based on substantial cooperation with the universities.
Gonnissen had spent two and a half years as manager of corporate venturing at Bekaert and was at the company since 1999 before leaving with Nuno Carvalho as the new head of Bekaert Corporate Venturing.
The inter-university venturing QBIC Fund is the successor of the Baekeland II-Fund of UGent and the BI3-fund of VUB. The fund was raised from the university associations, investment banks and public companies. ARKimedes, a Flemish government organisation, through the Participation Company Flanders (Participatiemaatschappij Vlaanderen (PMV)), also committed €12m.

Client Experience
Jeff Gorski: I have been hunting with Bret Ferguson for the past ten years. Bret and his staff always go above and beyond to make sure we have a Best of Class hunt! The accommodations and hunting opportunities are always unparalleled in South Texas! We also take 20 friends every year for the South Zone Opener and always have a great time, the lodge is spectacular! You will not be disappointed with your experience at Monte Cruz Ranch.
- Frank Colazzo: I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you again for the awesome hunt last week. I have never seen that many deer in the in all of the years that I have been hunting. The quality and quantity of animals is just unbelievable. The 2 biggest whitetail deer that I have ever taken came from your ranches last week, and I know that there are much bigger trophy deer out there. All of the guides are true professionals that possess intimate knowledge of the land and wildlife. They are all willing to help anyone at anytime. The lodge accommodations and food were spectacular. I can't imagine a more luxurious place to go deer hunting. Monte Cruz Ranch far exceeded my expectations. This was by far the best hunt that I have been on, and I'm looking forward to coming back.
- John D. Waltz: We thoroughly enjoyed the hunt, the accommodations, and the hospitality. First rate - second to none.
- John Crawford: Oh, we had a great time. All my guests had fun and got away from the grind. You and your staff took great care of everyone.
- Brian Bilderback: I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say thank you for the accommodations the past 3 days for our hunt. You guys run a first class operation and all my guys and customers raved about the experience. Your guides were tremendous help and even better to visit and hang out with. I really appreciate you giving our employees and customers a really memorable experience. You will probably be hearing from me in the future as I try to plan something similar to this again either for business or personal. Thanks again and good luck during the remainder of the hunting season.
- Ed Dwyer: Thanks again guys for an awesome time and a great hunt! First-Class! I will pass on info to all my hunting buddies.
- Lacey Biles: I talk your place up whenever I can because it is an awesome operation. Thanks again for your hospitality while I was there.
- John Stegeman: Wow, what a great hunt. Darrin and I had a super time. Looking forward to being back in January!
- Brad Sugarek: Thanks again for the first class accomodations and use of the ranch this weekend. I can speak for the group and say your operation is second to none. I do a fair amount of corporate events as a representative of my company (FMC) within our Anadarko customer office so I will add your lodge to my personal alist as well as pass the info along to other Account Managers at FMC. Gabe has been a great friend of mine since we were both knee high so I appreciate you working with him to make the trip affordable to all that attended. I think we managed to keep most of your staff entertained so hopefully they will walk away from the weekend with a few good stories as well. Thanks again Bret to you and your staff... look forward to a future trip.
Toby Tschoepe: Thanks for everything you and your guides did for us last weekend. You run a professional service, and the hospitality is unlike anything I've experiences in the industry. I really enjoyed myself. Thanks again.
Jones T. Kemp: My middle son and I thoroughly enjoyed our maiden trip to the Monte Cruz Ranch, and we look forward to returning again very soon. The hunting, accommodations and service were exceptional, as was the first-class hospitality. Please convey my appreciation to Kramer, Kiley and Mason and thank them for taking such good care of us during our trip. My son is very proud of his first buck, and Kramer (Kelton) worked hard to insure he didn't leave the ranch disappointed. Again, many thanks and I look forward to hearing about the upcoming Turkey Season from you soon.

A large coffee is TINY
- Andrew McCarthy-Wood reviewed 5 years ago
I ordered a large coffee. When I was about to have it handed to me, I thought a mistake had been made and reminded them that I ordered a large.
The girl behind the counter laughed and said it was. But the cup resembled a shot glass more than a large coffee and cost the same as top shelf spirits…

. The more that the investment flucuates, the greater the risk of the balance being low when you need to take the money out. Depends how much of the account is invested in fixed income. If part of the account is being used as an emergency fund, keeping some of it in a low yielding, but stable investment is reasonable. Debra

Going After Generation Next
There's a bit of dialogue that Ben Younger wrote for his first film, "Boiler Room," that sums up the slippery morality of the hotshot young stockbrokers whose world he examines:
"My father once asked me where my work ethic is. Looking back now, I realized that wasn't the problem. I had a very strong work ethic. My problem was my ethics at work."
"Boiler rooms" are semi-legitimate brokerage houses located primarily on Long Island, New York, whose workaholic salesmen sell IPO (initial public offering) stock the way telemarketers hawk tools or kitchen knives.
They promise big profits and are convincing enough to reel in a sizable clientele.
The only problem is that it's a con. The IPOs are from bogus companies, which means the only people making a profit are traders (who earn exorbitantly high commissions) and their bosses, who rig the stock sales so that they reap a healthy profit at their clients' expense.
Younger first became aware of this subculture when he attended a boiler room recruitment seminar. He was excited, but for very different reasons than the eager young men around him.
"As soon as I walked into this room," he says, "it was unbelievable. I knew immediately that this was going to be the first film I was going to write."
He had the determination to back up that instinct. Even though he's only 27, Ben Younger already has several careers behind him. With a political science degree from the City College of New York, he went right into the political arena. After working on Assemblyman Alan Hevesi's successful bid to become comptroller of New York City, Younger worked for him as a senior policy analyst. He then served as campaign manager for Democrat Melinda Katz, who won a seat on the New York State Assembly.
Then Younger decided it was time to pursue an even more elusive profession: filmmaking. He supported himself working as a film crew technician, while he spent a year interviewing boiler room brokers.
"Normally I would have to [go undercover] to get into the world," Younger explains, "but these guys were so eager to tell me what they did — how illegal it was — that I didn't have to play that game. They wanted the notoriety."
What he discovered was a new breed of salesmen who target specific groups (like midwestern doctors) with the seductive promise of instant wealth courtesy of the raging bull market.
"At least when [salesmen] went door-to-door," he says, "if you were selling Bibles or vacuum cleaners, you had to look somebody in the eye. What's interesting about these guys is they can screw somebody out of 50 grand [anonymously]."
The dynamics of the boiler room have levels of exploitation. While it functions as a concerted effort to part suckers from their money, the brokers are often not fully conscious of the complexity of the scam.
That's the case with the film's Jewish main character, Seth Davis (Giovanni Ribisi), a 19-year-old college dropout who is intelligent, but easily seduced by the lure of quick money. Seth's moral dilemma is played out through his relationship with his father (Ron Rifkin), a judge who maintains a yawning emotional distance. "My generation has an extended emotional capacity," says Younger, "compared to — at least in my community — our eastern European parents. A lot of my friends were brought up by hard-core eastern European Jews. So I explored that juxtaposition, of my generation and the one prior. Seth is trying to make a connection, but his father responds to him by saying, 'Our relationship? Am I your girlfriend?' That's a typical answer you would find in that world."
Ben Younger, who grew up in Staten Island and Brooklyn (where he still lives), was raised in a modern Orthodox family. His mother is a psychotherapist and father, who died seven years ago, was a CPA.
"I'm an Ashkenazi Jew," he explains, "the firstborn Younger in this country. My father was born in Budapest. I went to yeshiva my whole life, went to synagogue every week, kept kosher."
Seth and his boiler room mentor are both Jewish, and Younger infused their feelings of isolation with his own memories.

Directions: This Launchpad, adapted from the What So Proudly We Hail curriculum, provides background information about the author and discussion questions to enhance your understanding and stimulate conversation about the story. In addition, the guide includes a series of short video discussions about the story, conducted by Eliot A. Cohen (Johns Hopkins SAIS) with the editors of the anthology. These seminars help capture the experience of high-level discourse as participants interact and elicit meaning from a classic American text. These videos are meant to raise additional questions and augment discussion, not replace it.

About the Author
According to Charles M. Province, founder of the George S. Patton Jr. Historical Society and author of several books about General Patton under whom he served with great pride, George Smith Patton Jr. (1885–1945) was a man of many—even self-contradictory—ways: "He was a noted horseman and polo player, a well-known champion swordsman, and a competent sailor and sportsman … an amateur poet … a rough and tough soldier … a thoughtful and sentimental man. Unpredictable in his actions, [yet] always dependable … outgoing, yet introverted." Hailing from a military family that traced its lineage back well beyond the American Revolution, Patton was already determined during childhood to become a hero. After graduating from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1909, he received a commission in the United States Army and never left it. He began as a cavalryman and swordsman, but soon became aide to General John J. Pershing, first in Mexico and then in World War I in Europe. There he became an early expert in a new form of battle machine—the tank—which he later used to full effectiveness as commander of the Third Army during World War II.
Though they often referred to him as "Old Blood and Guts" (a description he disliked), most of the men who served with Patton regarded him as a charismatic leader and, despite—or, according to some, because of—his copious use of profanity, an inspirational speaker. He commanded respect not only for his technical expertise, but also for his keen understanding of the human psyche (especially in wartime) and his prodigious knowledge of history and warfare. The much-celebrated movie Patton (made in 1970) makes evident his complex character, his competence, and his view of history as coherent and contiguous. It begins with his famous speech to the troops—in a much cleaned-up version.
Summary of the Speech
General Patton's speech to the Third Army was given on June 5, 1944, the eve of the Allied invasion of Europe. This third-person account of the speech comes from The Unknown Patton by Charles M. Province, who compiled it from innumerable sources. The first part presents the background, the second the speech itself, interrupted by brief comments on the reaction of the troops. Readers will no doubt be struck by Patton's harsh and often foul language, and his profuse reliance on profanity. But they should not make the mistake of thinking that Patton had not carefully rehearsed every word, chosen precisely for its desired persuasive effect. The speech repays careful analysis, and, when one identifies the problems it is designed to address, its genius and power will become evident.
General Patton, a lifelong professional soldier born into a family of professional soldiers, addresses civilian soldiers—most of them draftees—the majority of whom had never yet been in battle. We examine the speech mainly to discover how it seeks to accomplish its rhetorical purposes. We are also interested in what it reveals about the nature of leadership in the American democratic republic. On all these matters, comparison with Colonel Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain's speech to the mutineers will prove instructive.
The Rhetorical Situation
WATCH: What are Patton's concerns about his men? What does he want to accomplish by his speech?
The Rhetorical Strategy
WATCH: What case does Patton make?
Analysis of the Speech
Imagine yourself in the audience of soldiers. Pause after each paragraph and try to assess what he said, why he said it, and what effect it would have had on you.
WATCH: What is the function of Patton's profanity? What are its effects on the men—and why is it effective?
Comparison with Chamberlain's speech
Chamberlain and Patton were addressing different sorts of soldiers, under greatly different circumstances and requiring different rhetorical appeals. Nevertheless, some comparisons are fruitful.
Patton's speech, like Chamberlain's, invites questions about the importance of courage and self-sacrifice, as well as the difficulty in obtaining them. It also raises interesting questions about leadership and about the military in American society. (Many of the following questions were asked also in the Shaara/Chamberlain Discussion Guide.)
Encouraging Courage and Self-Sacrifice
WATCH: What is courage? Is Patton's definition of courage—fighting even though scared—correct?
WATCH: What is the difference between military courage (and military service) and other sorts of courage (and public service)?
Leadership and the Military
WATCH: Compare Patton and Chamberlain's speeches. How are they different? Why?

Vaughan Sound Installations (VSI), part of the PAI Group, has installed its unique i-Sign room numbering system, ambient lighting control and an iPod driven audio system into all the newly refurbished rooms at The Royal Horseguards hotel, London. The 5 Star 281 room luxury property is located on the banks of the River Thames opposite the London Eye, in the heart of the UK capital.
VSI were employed by the main contractors Beck Interiors for the end client, Guoman Hotels, after being initially commissioned for the project by interior designer Lorna Griffiths. The brief was to create a stylish, state-of-the-art, simple-to-use in-room IT, AV and lighting solution.
The first element of the installation for VSI was to specify a recessed i-Pod interface to link to the in-room flat screen TV and compact audio system, allowing guests to hook up their own iPod or MP3 device and play their own music and media through the room facilities.
A customised utility bus was also incorporated by VSI for this project. It consists of a polished chrome panel embedded with two 13 amp sockets, one Schuko (EU) socket and one US/Japanese 110V socket for maximum connectivity. There's also a VGA input back to the room screen facilitating laptop connection to work, play games or watch movies, and a telephone point.
"The client desired a neat and intuitive system that incorporated everything today's traveller would want connection-wise," says PAI Group's Keith Elms, who co-ordinated and oversaw the project for the Welsh-based company.
VSI also installed custom lighting control designed around an ANYtronics ANYlight platform in each room; this features three 4-button touch panels - also linked to the electronic key card - allowing different lighting scenes to be selected to suit the mood of the occupant. For example, the default walk-in scene offers a warm, low level welcoming ambience.
Also incorporated throughout the hotel is i-Sign a new product now available from VSI to order. It comprises an elegant LED optically clear back-lit glass plate mounted on the corridor wall outside each room. Engraved with the room number and Service My Room/Do Not Disturb instructions I-sign is interfaced via a remote unit to the user-selectable panel inside the room. Functionality allows activation of the Do Not Disturb/Service my room options. There is also a bell push integrated - a classic touch that the hotel wanted to retain from its historic incarnations.
The i-sign interface uses smart technology and will de-activate the bell push if the Do Not Disturb option is selected. It's also been programmed with a selection of anti-nuisance logic and additional functionality to enhance its flexibility when utilised in a variety of applications. VSI can deliver i-sign to any design finish or colour to suit individual clients' needs - using any corporate branding, legend, logo or font type.

Yangshuo RECOMMENDATIONS See all
3 Days in Yangshuo: Suggested Itineraries
By Viator, July 2016
Day 1: Village Life
West Street (Xi Jie) is the heart of Yangshuo, teeming with shops and cafes where you can start your visit with a cup of tea and a fresh banana crepe: the local breakfast specialty. Take a stroll down West Street toward Yangshuo Park, where locals come to play cards, practice tai chi and play traditional Chinese instruments in impromptu jam sessions for all to see. Head back to West Street to sample a few more Yangshuo favorites including beer fish (pijiu yu) and sweet and sour eggplant (tang chu qiegua). After the sun goes down, watch the karsts light up in a nightly production of Impression Liu Sanjie, a show by the man responsible for the Beijing Olympic opening ceremonies.
Day 2: Along the River
Exploring the rice paddies, bamboo forests and small villages set along the rivers of Guilin County is one of the highlights of any trip to Yangshuo. Armed with a map and a bike, head out of town and upriver to catch a bamboo raft down the Yulong River (you can take your bike on the boat or have the boatmen transport it downriver for you). Alternately, take a motorized boat down the Li River for a glimpse of the view immortalized on China's 20 yuan note.
Day 3: Climbing High and Digging Deep
The rocky formations surrounding Yangshuo are an outdoorsman's playground and many of the karsts can be explored inside and out. Make the trek up Moon Hill, located just south of town and named for the moon-shaped hole through the top; or descend into the natural caverns within several of the area's karsts for a soak in the Water Caves hot springs. For an outdoor adventure closer to the Yangshuo city center, take a climb up Green Lotus Peak (Bilian Feng) for panoramic views of the town and surrounding countryside.

Steve Winwood, North Mississippi Allstars, Orpheum Theater, Boston 10/8
It was smack dab in the middle of one of Beantown's hottest musical weeks in recent memory. Our beloved BoSox were on their way to duel the Yankees for the ALCS, R.E.M. had spanned twenty years with a blistering Tweeter Center outing on Sunday, and THE Al Kooper had sat in with, of all bands, the Black Keys last night at the Paradise. With healthy doses of String Cheese Incident and Mule set for the weekend (not to mention upcoming Mike Gordon, Soulive, PLF and Bisco to boot), my last minute decision to take a buddy up on his offer to see the legendary Steve Winwood seemed like a good bit. Strolling into the Orpheum, which, like the Paradise, becomes a second home to true Boston music lovers after a long while, I sat back, relaxed and hoped for some solid renderings of vintage Traffic in the midst of what would no doubt be an 80s and 90s-heavy Winwood show.
Boy, did the term underestimate ever accurately describe this night. I knew Steve Winwood was one of the new, unofficial "ambassadors" to Jam Nation from the annals of classic rock, but I had no idea that he and his band would charge forth through two and half magical hours that easily bested most shows I've already seen this year. By the time it was all over, I was out of breath, staring in disbelief that the aging and let's face it, bizarre Winwood could deliver so mightily.
First things first however. Opening act North Mississippi All-Stars brought a few stragglers quickly to their seats and out of the beer line, kicking things off with their seismic brand of swampy blues rock. In spite of the fact that their latest, Polaris, was a sub-par descent for this band, they have honed their live show considerably over the past two years and tonight, looked downright comfortable playing before a theater sized crowd. Luther Dickinson has evolved from a budding slide attacker into an all-out virtuoso gunslinger, cranking out solos that would make even the true guitar heavyweights tingle with bluesy resonance. The band has wisely (finally) decided that Luther is the core player, and now that they have that center, the other three can finally stretch out and hone their own roles. With Polaris NMAS may have hit a creative wall but the group should easily survive it. Big things ahead for this crew.
Though his high-pitched vocals are a bit raspy these days, and his timing slightly off, Steve Winwood is a consummate improvisational performer. A gracious host to a sold-out crowd, he and his band sailed through a musical panorama that spanned his entire career. Setlist architecture was among the best this reporter has ever encountered: the classic Traffic and Blind Faith nuggets visiting like old friends in the midst of a sampling latter day tunes.
"Pearly Queen" came roaring out of the gate to open, and already, the signs were evident that Winwood's touring band (which includes multi-instrumentalist and southern jam scene heavyweight Randall Bramlett) could hold it down with any classic rock or modern jam ensemble out there. The solo baton got passed around frequently, and although Bramlett and ace guitarist Jose Neto were far less reticent, Winwood eventually began to stretch out on the Hammond B3, firing off blues licks and expressive arpeggios. The show had a hard time finding its momentum through "Different Light" and "Ciganos" (both off of Winwood's excellent 2003 offering, About Time)improv was hot, but had trouble finding a common threadbut by the time the band arrived at the first of many Traffic nuggets, "Empty Pages," all misgivings about the band were instantly dashed. A dynamite version of Traffic's classic diatribe on writer's block and emotional turmoil brought the first of many standing ovations from the crowd.
It became evident early on that Winwood is still a fine player, but it's the band as a whole that makes his live experience a transcendent one. Bramlett, whose best work is on sax although he's no slouch on keys, flute or percussion, smoked through solo after solo: a ponderous, drawn-out progression on here, a smoking, back porch scorcher there. His contribution to the "Glad > Freedom" jam was one of the night's major showstoppers, a spirited exercise in rhythm and shuffling. And while Neto plays the roles of lead guitarist and improvisational foil with equal, talented candor, drummer Eduardo "Caf34; DaSilva and percussionist Walfredo Reyes are holding it down with controlled recklessness. Combined, especially given the Latin, world beat flavor of many of Winwood's 80s and 90s work, they recall the mighty percussion line of the Santana band.
And last is Winwood, himself, who in addition to offering up B3 work stormed through a mind-blowing, Roger Gilmour-esque guitar solo during "Dear Mr. Fantasy," only minutes after he had cranked out a gorgeously restrained mandolin improvisation in "Back in the High Life." Even "Higher Love," Winwood's excruciating pop nugget, took on new life, as the percussionists upped the tempo and grooved it into near-samba and fast reggae territory. Following "Love," one fan turned to me and whispered with a chuckle, "Do we forgive a formally great artist for his latter day sins?" Oh, don't even front, you High Fidelity-quoting boob…you may think it's wet toast pop, but you were dancing along like everyone else.
All of the band's strength combined as one for the set-closer, the inevitable "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys," which was 20 minutes of pure psychedelia. Though Winwood and Neto cooked and simmered during the extended solo section, it was again Bramlett who captivated. He began his solo by tickling his lower register on the tenoreliciting a tone as beautifully haunting as the bottom of the oceanand by the time he arrived back in his more comfortable mid-range, he was on fire.
Perhaps the one set compositional misstep in the whole show was the first of the two-song encore, About Time's "Why Can't We Live Together?" After a long encore break, it's slow drawl about a broken relationship nearly killed all the momentum from the "Fantasy" and "Low Spark" workouts. But the band quickly roared back to life with the seminal Spencer Davis Group classic "Gimme Some Lovin'" again an improvisational high water mark and funkier than most recorded versions.
All in all, a stellar show that reached unanticipated moments of sheer psychedelic virtuosity. Steve Winwood seems to be enjoying his new "jam world" ambassadorship, and quite frankly, he can stay as long as he likes.

Advanced Fume Collection
The National Safety Council (NSC) says that, the majority of occupational health hazards arise from inhaling chemical agents in the form of vapors, gases, dusts, fumes and mists. While many materials are fairly nontoxic under normal circumstances, when heated or machined, their byproducts can be released as toxic fumes and gasses. These emissions can include such substances as chromium, nickel, arsenic, asbestos, cadmium and nitrogen oxides. Breathing of these hazardous fumes and gasses, especially for prolonged periods, can damage the upper respiratory tract and lungs and may cause a wide variety of serious, even fatal, long term complications.
Is is important, wherever there are industrial processes that create vapors and dusts, that these dangerous chemicals are extracted from plant air, before they can negatively impact the health of workers. (Note the new OSHA standard for PEL of hexavalent chromium.) Not only is OSHA compliance necessary, but overall plant efficiency depends upon safe and healthy indoor air quality.
Every company requires a different solution for effective fume and dust collection. Each application presents its own unique set of considerations — the type process; the material being, cut or polished; coatings on that material; the number of operators working in a given area; the length of time of operation as well as the general ventilation of the plant. Many factors can affect the amount of fume generated and the toxicity hazards of those emissions.
What is the compositition and size of the contaminant? Is it large particulate (dust). sub-micron particulate (fumes), Wet or dry — mists, gases or smoke? Are there heavy metals? Acid mists? Dioxins? What is the size and position of the source? The position and work flow of the operator? What capture velocity is required for this application?
Do you need the high-volume of a central cartridge collector or the focused source capture of an extraction arm? Which type filtration is best suited for your application? A ducted electrostatic precipitator for removing oily mists and smoke, or a modular media filter system combining carbon, HEPA and other filters, each with specific gas and particulate capture capabilities?
Do you require compact portability? Is a downdraft table, a backdraft bench or a vacuum extraction nozzle the most efficient strategy for your particular application? Do you have special considerations like working with high temperatures or explosive materials? What about maintenance ? And of course a cost-benefits analysis will be central to your final decision.

Tier 3 debuts DIY cloud networks
Network administration with a robot touch
Cloud operator Tier 3 has added reconfigurable networking to its cloud technology in an attempt to make it easier for resellers to massage the tech to suit their needs.
The company announced the upgrades on Wednesday. They see Tier 3 implement self-service networking capabilities for its ESX-based cloud that will let customers and resellers create and manage load balancers, virtual LANS, site-to-site VPNs, and custom IP ports for edge firewalls – and all without having to contact the company's network operations centre.
This upgrade is designed to give Tier 3 customers greater reconfigurability for their networks and follows the introduction of a global object store based on the well-thought-of Riak CS technology.
"What we've spent a lot of time doing is trying to raise the bar on self service," Jared Ruckel, Tier 3's director of product marketing, says.
Though Tier 3's press materials bill it as a "leading public cloud," it is rather slight: the company has some 30TB of RAM capacity spread across an undisclosed quantity of Dell servers in 9 colocation facilities spread across North America and Western Europe. Some napkin math tells us then that the company can have between a couple of thousand wimpy servers down to as few as 60 hulking brutes across the world. Amazon Web Services it ain't.
But what the company lacks in size it is hoping to make up for in ingenuity. By selling a full cloud stack to resellers, the company can give organizations some tech they can label as their own and sell on. This is a similar technology to the route taken by OnApp with its own cloud tech.
With the network tech, the company is allowing its resellers greater flexibility in how they deliver IT to customers, and giving customers reconfigurable networks without the need to go via a helpdesk.
Though the company is built on top of VMware, it does not use VMware's software-defined networking "Nicira" technology to deliver this service.
"NSX (VMware Nicira) is something that we are currently looking into. Because this is still a young technology and our focus on enterprise grade at scale we are taking it slow as networking is something that should be very resilient and stable. Our platform is very pluggable for integrating with something like NSX or using current technologies we use today to build a global platform," the company's CTO Jared Wray told El Reg via email.
We understand that Tier 3 had concerns about becoming an all-VMware shop, and believes if it is to make some cloud coin it needs to maintain some technology independence – hence its homebrew networking update. ®

Mexico bishop and indigenous champion Samuel Ruiz dies
The Mexican bishop and indigenous rights campaigner, Samuel Ruiz Garcia, has died at the age of the 86.
He passed away in hospital in Mexico City from complications arising from respiratory problems and diabetes.
Samuel Ruiz served as bishop of San Cristobal de las Casas in the southern state of Chiapas for four decades.
He was best known for his role as mediator in the conflict with Zapatista rebels, and was nominated for the Nobel Peace prize several times.
President Felipe Calderon said his death was a "big loss" for Mexico.
"Samuel Ruiz worked to build a fairer, more equal, more dignified Mexico without discrimination, where indigenous communities have a voice and where their rights are respected by all," Mr Calderon said in a statement.
Bishop Ruiz led the diocese of San Cristobal de las Casas from 1959 to 2000, when he stepped aside on reaching the retirement age of 75.
Inspired by the liberation theology that swept the Roman Catholic Church in Latin America in the 1960s, he was an outspoken advocate for the rights of the indigenous Maya people of Chiapas, who are among Mexico's poorest and marginalized communities.
His followers knew him as "The Bishop of the Poor" or simply as "Jtatic" - father in the Tzotzil Maya language.
Peace broker
On 1 January 1994 Chiapas saw a shortlived armed uprising by a previously unknown rebel group, the Zapatista National Liberation Army (EZLN), which said it was fighting for indigenous rights.
Bishop Ruiz was chosen to mediate between the government and the rebels.
In 1998 he was pressurized to resign as mediator by the government, amid allegations that he was too sympathetic to the Zapatistas, but the uneasy truce he helped to establish in Chiapas has held ever since.
Bishop Ruiz was also criticised by conservatives in the Church who saw him as too influenced by left-wing political ideas and too flexible in his approach to indigenous religious practices that combined Catholicism with traditional Maya beliefs.
The conflict in Chiapas raised his international profile, and he became a widely-respected advocate of indigenous rights throughout Latin America.
One of his legacies is the Father Bartolome de las Casas Human Rights Centre, which he founded in 1989.
The organisation is named, like the diocese Bishop Ruiz represented, after a 16th Century Spanish priest and defender of indigenous rights.

The couple, who had purchased land on Molokai with plans to build and retire there, were vacationing on Maui five years ago when inspiration buzzed into their heads at Mama's Fish House restaurant.
Bill ordered what the menu called "The Original Trader Vic's Mai Tai." The drink's origin is contested, which Bill knows, but it didn't matter to him at the time.
They sipped and ate and talked and "a light bulb went on," Bill said. "Tropical drinks for women."
By the time they left Mama's they had formed and named their pretend company Hula Girl.
"It seemed so easy," both agreed. Ask bartenders for favorite recipes, find a distillery, bottle the mixtures and sell them, they thought.
"Sometimes it's good to be naive," Bill chuckled.
They found a distillery, but developing the right flavor profiles was a big discouragement until someone directed them to a flavoring lab.
"Within a week they nailed exactly what we wanted," Bill said.
Now for the bottles.
Hula Girl bottles needed to jump off the shelf and be "attractive to females," Lisa said. They found nothing they liked, so they had their own bottle designed, and molds, cast.
The label is a wrap, not a sticker, because "we didn't have millions of dollars to spend on advertising, so the product almost has to sell itself," he said.
The blends, Bikini Bling, Moonlight Mai Tai, Wild Wahine and Sunset Sensation, are available at a few local stores so far. They include Waikiki's 1 2 3 Store, Ewa Pantry, Big Save in Poipu, Maunaloa General Store and Misaki's on Molokai and a couple military bases, but that will expand: Hula Girl has signed on with distributor Southern Wine & Spirits of America Inc.
Bill is a former long-haul trucking company owner and Lisa is a former Olympic athlete -- softball, in the 1996 games, when her last name was Martinez -- and financial planner. Now they are loving the beverage business.
"It's been a lot of fun, a real education, and I'm glad we did it," Bill said.
They have the same goal they've had all along.
"Molokai is where we want to end up," said Bill. The irony is that the couple sold their Friendly Isle land to help fund the start-up.
The Shawvers have meetings and appearances this week including the private Hart & Huntington tattoo salon anniversary party this weekend.
