NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Retail stocks moved off shaky positive territory to lay level during and after a purported tape of Osama bin Laden's call to the Iraqi people to "build trenches" to fight a war with the U.S.
At the session's end, the sector's main measure, the S&P Retail Index $RLX was nearly even to the trading day's start at 248.54. The Merrill Lynch Retail Holdrs RTH, +0.54% was off a spot to 64.70.
Retail stock trading stayed on the same track throughout the day, reflecting weak sales among the nation's largest chain stores. Last week's results were flat against the prior week, according to the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi's index, thanks mainly to an East Coast winter snowstorm on Friday. Year-over-year, the week's sales rose a meager 0.6 percent to 408.9.
"Winter weather played a bit of havoc with the profile and performance of the weekly sales," BTM analyst Michael Niemira said. Not to worry, he added, February typically is second only to January in low sales volumes.
On the trading floors, Tweeter was a fat winner, closing 16 percent bigger at $5.99, up 82 cents. Investors apparently were following the leaders of the high-end electronics retailer. Tweeter said Tuesday that top executives and board members bought more than 1.5 million shares over the previous five trading days.
The prices ranged from $4.80 to $5.16 each for a total of more than $9 million. Tweeter shares have ranged from a 52-week high of $27.98 to a low Jan. 24 of $3.34.
Department store retailers started the session strong, but ended it mixed. Federated FD gave up earlier gains to end off 3 cents to $23.95. The parent of Bloomingdale's, Macy's, Bon Marche and Burdine's changed reporting functions of Bloomingdale's By Mail and Macy's.com. The two e-commerce sites will perform as arms of their respective store operations. "There is greater potential in more closely aligning these direct-to-customer channels with the marketing strategies of the department stores," Federated Chief Executive Terry Lundgren said in a statement.
Nordstrom JWN, +15.86% took in 6 cents to $17.27. Dillard's DDS, -0.51% lost its fight to end the session higher, falling 19 cents to $14.67.
J.C. Penney JCP, -3.26% gave up earlier gains and subtracted 25 cents, or 1.4 percent, to $18.18. Sears S, +0.73%, meanwhile, slipped 16 cents to $22.72 amid ongoing issues with its credit-card division.
Elsewhere, Limited LTD, -3.27% moved out of positive terrain into the red by 15 cents, or 1.3 percent, to $11.60. Gap GPS, +4.66% did the same, falling 10 cents to $15.09.
Kohl's KSS, +0.57% was up 55 cents, or 1.1 percent, to $50.63. Wal-Mart WMT, -0.10% gained 23 cents to $47.25.

Seattle Public Utilities has partnered with the Mount Baker Community Club to sponsor a free Family Movie Night next Thursday, May 4th from 6-8:30PM, and you are invited! We will be hosting WALL-E, a Disney/Pixar film about a small waste-collecting robot who embarks on a journey that will decide the fate of mankind. The story, which is set in the future, carries themes of environmental stewardship and waste management, and topped Time's "Best Movies of the Decade."
May is Puget Sound Starts Here month, and dozens of events will be taking place around the region to raise awareness about the connection between our urban neighborhoods and the stormwater drains that link to local streams, lakes, and eventually, Puget Sound. It's also an opportunity to get citizens involved in direct restoration and protection efforts happening in their neighborhoods. We want to take this opportunity to connect with our neighbors, and share some of the ways that families in the Puget Sound area can work to protect our waters.
The event will be hosted by Seattle Public Utilities' RainWise Program, which is a rebate program for homeowners in select Seattle areas who install rain gardens and/or cisterns. Mount Baker and its surrounding neighborhoods fall in our RainWise-eligible areas, and we are looking forward to connecting with homeowners at this event.
Doors open at 6PM, and the event will begin at 6:30PM. Fremont Brewery has kindly donated a limited supply of adult beverages, and concessions will be provided. Please bring blankets and/or low chairs, and arrive early to find your spot on the floor! (Some chairs will be provided).
We would greatly appreciate it if you would RSVP for the event: http://mbccfamilymovienight.eventbrite.com

Soul Asylum - Let Your Dim Light Shine
sold out
Soul Asylum - Let Your Dim Light Shine
Let Your Dim Light Shine is the seventh album from the band Soul Asylum, released in 1995. Critically, it suffered in comparison to its predecessor, Grave Dancers Union, the band's breakout release. It includes the hit "Misery," which was parodied by "Weird Al" Yankovic as "Syndicated Inc." on his album Bad Hair Day. This was the first Soul Asylum album with drummer Sterling Campbell. He provided half of the drums on Grave Dancers Union. The album's title comes from a lyric of the song "Promises Broken." Actress Trini Alvarado provided backing vocals on three songs.

Cleaning Up After Hurricane Katrina

Jobs and Employment
There is a lot of talk about what went wrong with hurricane Katrina and the destruction of New Orleans; certainly, FEMA and the U.S. government at the political level miscalculated and failed completely, yet, no one seems to concentrate in two very important issues:
One is that of the future of the survivors. What will happen to them? Being lifted to helicopters is fine, but their lives have been destroyed, and something should be done about that. Once the immediate dangers and problems of survival are solved, long-term issues arise, but seems that the government of the United States is more akin to spend the public money in 'major offensives' in Iraq and free-trade agreements with Latin American countries that don't want them at all.
And the second issue is that of climate change: meteorologists around the world are saying that there is enough data to transform the simple hypothesis of global warming into a firm theory. And from here, two questions should be asked:
First of all, was Katrina a consequence of global warming or just an abnormally strong hurricane?
And secondly, will this happen again? Because if the first question is answered positively, the implications for the second one are obvious and immediate: the situation will get worse and we will have more and stronger hurricanes, tornadoes and extreme weather developments coming.
There are political decisions to be made, and the U.S. president coming after Mr. Bush will have a lot to do: the war in Iraq while not lost already, has not been won and after all, if the mightiest army cannot control a bunch of angry fellows wearing sandals, perhaps we should say that things are out of control there; history tells that wars that cannot be won, one day will lead to defeat, even if it is just because the public may get fed-up with the whole business. So the next U.S. president will either have to win it at the last minute, or accept defeat, unless Mr. Bush performs some miracle.
And then, there is that perky climate change issue: indeed, 'the economy' might suffer the consequences derived from fulfilling obligations related to the Kyoto Protocol, but so it does when the country does not fulfill them, tinkers with the environment and nature then reminds everyone who is the boss in town by sending things like hurricane Katrina.
Mr. Bush has made many gross mistakes: under his watch, the United States was grievously attacked by Al-Qaida, then Iraq was attacked pre-emptively much like Pearl Harbour, in the view of the Japanese, and for quite unclear reasons. Hundreds of people got detained in connection to alleged terrorist plots, but members of the Bin Laden family could easily and legally get out of the country only a few days after the attacks on New York and Washington. Under his watch, Columbia was destroyed, and that had to do with political decisions as well, the country was left with no allies, there are CIA scandals here and there, and companies receive special treatment as contractors in Iraq. The list of shortcomings, failures and dark spots in the record is too long to mention.
The next president of the United States will have a lot of cleanup to do, in Iraq, in Louisiana, and if things continue this present course, in other places as well.
People around the world are thinking that the U.S. is now a liability more than a leader. If the United States still wants to have a leading role in the world, it better become more credible, again.

Nutritional Therapy- healing from the inside out.
Do you or someone you love suffer from a chronic illness or disease?
Do you feel like you have tried everything yet you still don't feel better?
Did you know what you eat or don't eat can affect your body healing process?
Did you know what you eat or don't eat can affect your body healing process?
Everyone has a different biochemistry, genetic makeup and nutrient needs, so what works for you, may not work for someone else.
For that reason, as a Certified Nutritional Therapist, Chef Lana works with science-based questionnaires and advanced tools to pinpoint the unique needs of each individual and to build a personalized 8 week Nutritional Therapy Program that works.
For Chef Lana to understand what your specific nutrient requirements are, she will need to undertake a series of software-analysed assessments that evaluate the following:
- Your current health status.
- Your antioxidant capacity.
- Your possible nutrient deficiencies.
The Nutritional Therapy program provides:
- The Client Health Check Questionnaire
- Your Antioxidant Capacity Assessment™
- Your Nutritional Deficiencies Assessment™
- Written reports with your assessments' results, which we will discuss together at length
- 8 weeks of email support and fine-tuning from Chef Lana to ensure understanding of everything about your unique nutritional needs
- 2 Food and Symptom Journal records analysed by Chef Lana with recommendations returned each week
Your personal diet plan will include carefully selected foods which are best for your body. Each meal will be comprised of your own top foods and will include:
- Antioxidant shopping list with specific action steps to help enhance your antioxidant capacity
- The inclusion and exclusion of certain "promoters" and "adversaries" from your diet
- Specific dietary do's and don'ts to help support an adequate absorption of your required nutrients
- Tips for grocery shopping, food preparation, and cooking
During your 8 Week Nutritional Therapy Program- each session will last 30 minutes to 1 hour, your session can be in person, over the phone or even Skype. At the end of each session Chef Lana will be giving goals for the week, next steps, action steps and Session Summary Handouts™. A Symptom Reassessment™ will also be given at the end of your program based your initial Nutritional Deficiencies Assessment™.
"Your diet can give your disease-fighting cells some ammunition.
When you're battling an autoimmune disease, like rheumatoid arthritis (RA), lupus, or psoriatic arthritis, the right foods can play a part in your care.
One way to help an immune system that's overworked is to eat a well-balanced, healthy diet, says Monica Piecyk, MD, a rheumatologist at New England Baptist Hospital and an instructor at Harvard Medical School, both in Boston. A healthy diet starts with fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and also includes low-fat dairy and protein. Add in these specific foods to bolster your immune system." Read more here.

Action sports filmmaker Perry Gershkow is all about the adventure. And when you are talking about road tripping along the Northern California coastline and Mexico, there's no doubt that's exactly what you are going to get.
In his latest film titled, 'Llevame de Vuelta', or 'Take Me Back', Gershkow allows viewers to share in his journey with Austin Smith-Ford, Kyle Buthman and Kyle Thiermann on a trip to Mainland Mexico in search of waves and empty lineups. The film follows the ups and downs that come with seeking pristine, uncrowded surf, as well as the benefits of shredding one of the best waves in the world.
In the end, they challenge one another, and score the waves of their lives.
"The best part about working with Austin, Buthman and Thiermann is their sense of humors. There wasn't one dull moment on the whole trip. Whether the surf was pumping or flat, these guys were always stoked and made the best out of any situation. It always makes the trip that much for fun when your filming a group of guys who you share similarities with and become friends. Not only that, but these guys know how to charge when its time to step up." -Perry Gershkow
The young filmmaker also ventured along the Northern California coastline in search of wave variety, terrain, and creating little victories along the way. His 30-minute film documents eight different surf spots, starting in Santa Cruz and ending with some serious tube time in San Francisco.
'Little Victories' captures the best of that journey with some of the best underground surfers including: Austin Smith-Ford, Tyler Payne, Colin Dwyer, Bryce Adams, Chris Williams, Michael Taras, Teddy Miller, Matt Myers, Kyle Thiermann, Jason "Ratboy" Collins, Morgan Albertoli, Josh Scofield, Trevor Bloom, Ian Glover, Jordan Stern and Josh Ryan.
"My goals as a filmmaker are pretty much to continue what I'm doing but on a larger scale. More traveling, working with a variety of people, improving as a filmmaker, and keep having fun." -Perry Gershkow

Driving hazards in 1934, when British traffic rules and road designs were still evolving.
Tramcars are built with a considerable amount of overhang at each end, and for that reason the ends swing out for some distance when they round a curve. Do not pass a tram when it is nearing a corner or crossing a junction, as its rear platform may strike the side of your car. It is not safe to rely on the driver giving the correct hand signal, and even if he does so the bulk of his vehicle will hide his hand from you. Never follow a tram closely for it is fitted with very powerful magnetic brakes and should it stop suddenly you may be unable to avoid a collision.
Some towns have by-laws that compel all traffic to stop when a tram stops, so as to avoid danger to any passengers who may be entering or alighting from it. In other districts the procedure is left to the discretion of the motorist who may stop, proceed cautiously or pass the tram on the off side. Of these three alternatives the first is the safest, for among the tram's passengers there may be an old person or an irresponsible child. Passing round the off side of the tram has its dangers as one may meet another tram proceeding rapidly in the opposite direction.
It is always inadvisable to motor along a tram track, for tramlines, especially if they are wet, are most "skid-provoking." Often, too, the lines are worn to a sharp edge which cuts the tyres. If you have the misfortune to get your wheels caught in the tram track (as in the case illustrated), pull out gradually.
Grip the wheel firmly, but gently, and change the direction of motion as gradually as possible. Avoid use of the brakes, take your foot off the accelerator and press down the clutch pedal so that the car rolls along, for rolling road wheels, that have no power transmitted through them, do not skid.

January 2018 – Getting the Most Out of Outsourcing Your Projects
Omnicon has been a trusted outsource partner to startups and Fortune 500 companies alike, across industries such as Aerospace, Rail and Transportation, Military and Defense, Medical Devices, and Commercial Electronics. Whether you are looking to award a multi-year development project, or one-off analyses, our 33 years of experience on both sides of the supplier/buyer relationship has led us to master the nuance of starting new business relationships. The following questions are likely to arise in new subcontract or outsource endeavor.
Should I outsource this project?
Many companies first come across this question when their engineering organization gets a new demand that they can't meet. Our advice is to have an answer to this question long before that happens. A better, more immediate question to consider is: What is my organization's outsourcing strategy?
There are many strategies you may choose to employ when subcontracting with an engineering services provider. The most common reasons for outsource are to regain schedule or good standing with a customer, overcome a technical challenge, focus on core competencies, get an independent outside opinion, or simply to supplement your team with immediately available experienced engineering resources that can be productive with minimal training to make up for fluctuations in demand.
These days, most companies are matrixed organizations and we're all asked to juggle projects and priorities. When a project calls for a dedicated team, it's often difficult to assemble such a team for the period of performance. An external team won't be divided by competing schedules and deadlines and can stay laser focused on a specific business need while your core team balances the daily needs of your organization.
How do I choose a Supplier?
Once you've decided to enlist external aid on an engineering project, you'll have to consider candidates and weigh their proposals. Candidates that have verifiable experience and objective measures of success should top your list. Your candidate's engineering and quality processes should be routinely audited and certified. You should understand their work history, past customers, accomplishments, and research their reputation using references and testimonials.
When you enlist Omnicon's services, you're working with a certified AS 9100 and ISO 9001 company. This means we have proven that we deliver consistent levels of quality to our customers with well-defined and processes and procedures ranging from Reliability, Maintainability and Safety (RM&S) Engineering; Hardware, Software and Systems Engineering; Development of Special Test Equipment; and Design, Development, and Manufacturing of Products. We are pleased to share our testimonials from our customers to support our work.
How do I work with a Supplier?
A supplier that wants to become a long-term partner will be interested in learning more than what the job entails. Listen for questions that show that they care about how the project is being executed, how status is being communicated, and for any ways to improve your experience as a customer. A dedicated, proactive supplier will be actively getting to know your product, suggesting alternative approaches, understanding your core design decisions, and exhaustively presenting methods and options to you to get the best possible outcome.
Skilled Engineers with Experience
Omnicon, part of HBM Prenscia Solutions, has years of experience as an industry leader. We aim to deliver unwavering technical innovation by developing cost effective software, hardware, and test solutions, while working with you to develop solutions for today and tomorrow. To discuss the opportunity to assist you in your next project, simply complete the form.

Passion week. The Passion of Christ.
Passion Week is the central event of the whole Bible. And the prophets foretold of it.
The name represents the passion, or willingness to suffer, with which Jesus went to the cross to pay for our sins.
Today, I'm sharing something different for Easter's Passion Week. I'm sharing a post for an event of each day up until Thursday. Then, I'll share the rest of the week on Thursday.
But, instead of sending you a daily email this week, I've set up a snippet and a link for each one in this post. May they bless you and help you ponder on this heart-stirring week.
Today's is a full post.
1) Palm Sunday: Your King is Coming to You
Jesus and the disciples traveled the dusty road on their walk to Jerusalem.
About one mile from their destination, they came to the little village of Bethphage. Known as the house of unripe figs.
Within the limit of a Sabbath-day's journey from Jerusalem. Near Bethany and the tomb of Lazarus. Situated on the eastern slope of the Mount of Olives.
Jesus stopped and told two of the disciples, "Go to the village over there, and when you enter, you'll see a donkey tied with its colt. Loose them and bring them to me. And if anyone asks what you're doing, just say, 'The Lord needs them,' and they will immediately let you take them."
After finding the donkey and the colt as Jesus said, the disciples took them to Jesus and then threw their garments over the colt for Him to sit upon.
And so the journey to Jerusalem began.
The journey to what would be the worst event of their lives. The worst event in history. Yet, ushering in the fulfillment of prophecy for the One with whom they traveled…
"Look, your King is coming to you.
He is humble, riding on a donkey—
riding on a donkey's colt."*
This King, the King with a crown yet-to-come, one fashioned of thorns…He's coming. On His way to Jerusalem.
This King, riding upon a lowly, unblemished servant…He's coming to you.
And so they entered Jerusalem to the clangor of enthusiasm. The excitement of the bulging crowd, those who recognized this King, grew.
So stirred by His presence, many spread their garments on the road before Him. Others cut down palm branches and spread them on the road.
And accompanying this? The praise of the Son of God.
This King, coming to save the world, arrived in joyous splendor, with palms waving, and shouts of Hosanna. The multitude's passion heightened as they shouted, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"**
But those in the city, who knew not this Man, wondered, "Who is this?"
"It's Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee," they were told.***
"Look! He's your King! He's coming to you. He's coming just for you. He's riding that lone mile to begin His sacrifice for the sins of the world."
And He comes to you as well. He comes, offering you the cross-sacrifice He died to give you…free!
Will you need to ask, "Who is this?"
He's your King. Look, He's coming to you.
And He will come again for you.
This One will return again, mounted upon a white steed, carrying a bow and wearing a crown on His head, going out conquering and to conquer.****
And when He returns, how many will He find who have faith in Him?
How many will be praising His return? How many will welcome Him with shouts of Hosanna?
Blessings of anticipation… Lynn

2) Holy Monday: The Tables are Turned!
It's Passover time. Time to clean house of every bit of yeast, because Jewish law requires it.
However, one house did not remain spotless: the House of God.
On this particular Passover visit with the disciples, Jesus enters the temple's outer courtyard, where the Gentiles are allowed to pray.
What a sight! People hustling about the temple, bumping into one another and tripping over a horde of wide-eyed, nervous animals.
Elbowing their way through the preoccupied crowd, Jesus and the disciples watch where they step, trying not to follow behind the animals. Sandaled feet, you know.
A frown digs furrows across Jesus' brow…
3) Holy Tuesday: You've Been Invited: Have You RSVP-ed?
Then, He went to Bethany and began teaching in the temple. After the chief priests and Pharisees realized He was speaking to them and about them in His parables, Jesus began teaching The Parable of the Wedding Feast.
Jesus compared the Kingdom of Heaven to a king who prepared a great wedding feast for his son. The king sent his servants to bid those already invited to come to the wedding for all things were ready. So come to the wedding!
After the servants called them, no one was willing to come. The invited ones made light of the invitation, making excuses and having no regard for it.
So now, the king's table sat in readiness. The meat roasted. The spices prepared. The bread sat piping hot. The jugs of wine overflowed. As the offering of the gospel, the whole banquet of life sat waiting for them, but those first invited refused…
4) Holy Wednesday: Poured Out
Then, Jesus and the disciples returned to Bethany to dine at the home of Simon the leper. This must have been a joyous occasion. But it was unlawful to eat with anyone who had leprosy. It's plausible that the Lord had healed Simon.
So, what happened next?
In ancient Jewish tradition, a mother wove a seamless garment for her son when he left home. Did Mary do this for Jesus? No one knows but I'm pretty sure, if she held to tradition, she must have.
If Mary lovingly created it, Jesus wore it, probably wearing it before His betrayal when He went to Simon the leper's house. As He reclined at the table, a woman came and broke open her beautiful, alabaster passion box, full of the extremely valuable, perfumed oil of spikenard.
As she lovingly poured it upon Jesus' head, it likely trickled down His cheeks, seeped into His beard, and gently dripped upon His shoulders, saturating His garment.
May Easter's passion fill you with a renewed gratitude for what Christ has done for you and the whole world…Lynn

Bhubaneswar, Apr 13:
The Zilla Parishad (ZP) chairman polls will be conducted on April 26 in Malkangiri and Nuapada districts, said a notification of State Election Commission (SEC) here today.
Similarly, the polls for the post of ZP vice chairman will be held on May 6.
Notably, the polls were not held for the ZP chairman in Malkangiri and Nuapada districts earlier.
Recently, the Orissa High Court rejected the petition paving the way for conducting the polls for the post of chairman.
The High Court had directed the SEC to conduct polls for the post of ZP Chairman in Malkangiri district. The court had also directed the commission to hold elections in 18 gram panchayats of Chitrakonda I and II zones in the district.
Earlier, the SEC had stayed polls in Chitrakonda I and II zones out of the total 13 ZP zones in Malkangiri after getting a joint report from the district Collector and SP regarding safety issues of the candidates, voters and election officials due to Maoists.

Bourgeois Ducati Hyperstrada? Yes, well … as much as her big sister Multistrada, that says it all!
For 2013, three models are available in "civilized" version: the Diavel, Multistrada and the famous Hyperstrada tried here.
Long preserved in pure sportsmanship, Bolognese brand for a while trying to get rid of this monoculture without sacrificing its exclusivity. And a production of 40,000 motorcycles per year, which is two times less than BMW and KTM, and five or six times less than Harley.
It turns out, that it works: the Diavel and Multistrada, especially now among its best sellers. Suddenly, the idea of the radical decline Hypermotard (to modest sales) but also the Diavel and Multistrada in versions more "public" was quite natural. But all this is very relative: Ducati is not still compete Gold Wing.
Anyway, the approach is interesting, because almost unprecedented: that is the Husqvarna Nuda or Aprilia Dorsoduro, no rival of the Hypermotard has ventured to this route daily. Although the precedent of the KTM 990 SMT showed that the formula had potential …
Hyperstrada Under this name hides a chastened changing Hypermotard, boasting a record of 20 mm handlebars, a small windshield, more generous mudguards, a saddle less Spartan, a center stand, two 12V outlets and especially small soft bags of 25 liters each.
Beyond the single name Hyperstrada, reserved for this civilized version is also Hypermotard "basic" changing profoundly in 2013. We forget the old air-cooled block, 800 or 1100 cm3, 820 to adopt a variant of the Testastretta 11 ° cm3 liquid-cooled, which previously existed in 1200 cm3. Among the benefits of modernity, it should be noted among other intervals which are spaced substantially revised.
In harmony with this profound change, everything changes, starting with the frame, finally a decent tank capacity, but also the electronic staffing. Ducati was one of the first brands to offer a choice of engine mapping, and "small" Testastretta in benefits as large, with its accelerator "ride by wire". Moreover, the setting options also extend to the determination of ABS and traction control.
Last appreciable change: fools handlebar end mirrors, which enormously increased the size of the machine, go into oblivion, replaced by simple mirrors rod.
Hyperstrada, In there are chunks Hypermotard. We'll quickly realize, when it gets on the machine: relatively high saddle and especially the feeling of sitting on the front wheel, elbows close to the body of the handlebar. Disguise "GT" will not deluded long. And just start the engine to complete to be convinced: in terms of discretion, the Ducati tradition – if the surrounding ears – is respected!
That said, as soon as it rolls and little thrown a veil on the relative inflexibility of the engine, we forget that first rough contact. Because Hyperstrada has lost none of its genes. From the first laps, this ultra-strong and ultra-player Machine identifies it as belonging to "superbikes." This does not only have advantages: stability is by no means that of a real road, comfort either, despite suspensions treated, and we must face the facts, under makeup of reason, it is the fire of passion still smoldering.
This was soon confirmed, that the attack on a stretch of road well tortured. Like pure "super-sport" geometry "supermoto" do not like half-measures and Hyperstrada do not like undecided. Brake hard, accelerate frankly, yes, it's his thing, and she excels especially as it can go, frankly, well protected by safeguards that are ABS and traction control. In contrast, transient phases and improvisations at partial load, inevitable on open road unknown, will be a little less to his liking. Reason to definitely not be seen as a "tourist".
Things are clear: no more than the clothes do make the man, suitcases do road. The Hyperstrada remains a pure sport, and in addition a pure Ducati, noisy hiccupping at low revs unaccomodating soft and smooth ride. So what? It has at least the merit of candor and consistency. The best way to consider is to see all that it offers, rather than anything she refuses: real gross efficiency, a unique experience and, more broadly, the driving impressions very rewarding for those who know the exploit strength.
Is its price. While BMW, Harley, KTM, Triumph and Aprilia above all seek – and succeed – to democratize access to Western motorcycles, Ducati is sticking to its elite field, justified by its presence, if the results at the highest levels of competition. Good for Audi , which now cash dividends, but this policy will she tenable long? One is tempted to say yes in the case of this Hyperstrada. It must indeed be admitted, it is a compromise that only sports-GT except her KTM 990 SMT is currently able to offer … also approximately the same rate.

A blog is great for communicating ideas, but it is a very loose collection of ideas. They come at you every week, in bite-sized pieces. That's how blogs work. But sometimes you need to know how all these disparate piece fit together. (And they DO fit together.) Guide to CoolData is a new page that gathers my blog posts into a more coherent and logical order. Not all of my posts are there yet, but this will become more complete over time and, I hope, make CoolData more useful as a reference. In future, you can find the Guide in the "Pages" menu on the right-hand side.

Yes. It is always advisable to have sweet and sticky candies or chocolates in moderation if one finds it difficult to avoid them completely then chocolate easter eggs harm teeth. Nevertheless, you can enjoy your Easter by munching on these chocolate eggs without putting your dental health at risk by following the steps listed below-
- Mealtime is the best time – Avoid eating Easter eggs in between the meals. Having one along with your meals reduces the risk of developing cavities. This is because saliva is secreted more than normal when you have your meals. Saliva helps in neutralising the acid produced due to bacterial activity and also helps in flushing out the food remnants.
- Sugar-free gums can help – Just pop in a sugar-free chewing gum after having an Easter eggs. These gums stimulate the salivary glands so that they produce more saliva. The flushing action and neutralising property of saliva protect the teeth from bacterial attack.
- Plenty of water – Drinking plenty of water keep the acid level at minimum thereby, protecting the teeth from decay. Thorough rinsing of water is highly recommended by Oral Health Care Professionals after a round of such a delicious dessert.
- Frequency matters – One needs to understand that the number of times of sweet indulgence counts than the quantity consumed. Each time you have something sugary, your teeth are exposed to acid attack. So, keep a check on the frequency of consumption of the Easter eggs.
- Dark chocolate is better – Studies have revealed the fact that dark chocolate is a better alternative to the sweeter versions of chocolate. Besides, they provide strength to the teeth just like fluorides do.
- Wait before brushing your teeth – If you go and brush your teeth instantly after having something sweet, the damage done is more. This is because you have chosen to brush at a time when the acid level is quite high inside the mouth. Brushing during high acid levels wears down the enamel risking the integrity of the teeth.
Well, go cavity-free this Easter by indulging into these tasty Easter treats without compromising your oral health!

To make things happen sometimes you have to be part weather man, travel agent, anthropologist, a great dancer, sociologist, therapist, carpenter, charmer, general contractor, technologist, boss, artist, DJ, geek, historian, marketer, salesman, scientist, chemist, electrician, grunt, designer, mechanic, road warrior, chef, sommelier, truck driver, man about town, magician, good cop, bad cop, politician, clown, actor, comedian, wingman, and last but not least a photographer. Sometimes a few of them sometimes all of them, and you better be able to pull the all off well! I am sure I missed a few, but you get the idea.
I used a few of these skills except the clown skill (although she may disagree), and maybe the the sommelier skills to help my wife (Scherezade Garcia) install an art exhibit she was putting together...interesting stuff it deals with migration of people to the land of opportunity, and the issues that are encountered.

African Violets are the world's most popular indoor flowering plant, with their botanical origins going back to 19th century Africa. Most varieties now available are hybridised to produce thousands of different colours and varieties. All Jane's plants are registered named varieties. Australian growers are hybridising, with many of these varieties in stock.
Available in every colour and shade, most African Violet flowers have 5 petals (single), 5-9 petals (semi-double), or multiple rows of 5 (double). The flowers may be single-colour, striped, edged or patterned and may have simple, clearly defined petals or may be frilled or fringed. Types include standards, miniatures, semi-miniatures and tailers.
In their natural habitat they enjoy filtered light, even temperatures, high humidity, ample moisture and well drained soil. Jane's African Violets use a semi-hydroponic method of growing – by using "wick watering", your African Violets can be fed and watered automatically as they require.
By providing your African Violets with a suitable position and conditions your violets will thrive and give you beautiful flowers all year round.
Good lighting is an essential element for African Violets. They prefer filtered sunlight from East or North windows. Too much sun may cause the leaves to become long and lanky, as well as loss of flowers.
Even temperatures are preferred, ranging between 18 and 27 degrees (C) with nights not below 15 degrees. They like humidity and fresh air, but not draughts. Move them away from cold windows in winter. African Violets are comfortable and happy in temperatures we are comfortable in. Don't leave them in a cold room in winter.
Feeding. Jane's African Violets use a balanced nutrient added to all waterings to promote optimal leaf and flower production.
An early sign of attack by mites is shrivelling of the blossom. The stems become short and thicker and the crown hard and brittle. Spraying is essential to prevent the mites from spreading. Use a miticide as directed by the manufacturer. For example; 'Confidore' or a Brunnings miticide spray.
African Violets grow from a leaf. From one "mother" leaf approximately 6-16 "babies" will grow. These can be divided when they are large enough to support themselves with an adequate root system. They can then be divided into individual pots to grow. When large enough to fill a 55mm pot, pot up to a 100mm pot. This should be the largest size the plant requires for best growth.
Janes African Violets have a mail order leaf service. Leaves are priced at $3.00 each for a minimum order of 6 leaves, maximum 30 leaves per order. See ordering for more information. All orders include propagation and growing hints to help you enjoy your beautiful plants.
African Violets are part of the Gesneriad family. Jane has other Gesneriads available during the year. These include some Nematanthus, Primulinas and Episcias. Please ask if you are interested in the other Gesneriads.

I took a vacation (knitting) day today, since our presentation went really well on Wednesday! We actually got feedback DURING the presentation, and we have some new projects for '06 we can start now. It feels really good to be done with the planning process, whew!
First thing today, I ordered the first little surprise for my secret pal - these stitch markers from Zephyr Style! Aren't those sheep cute? They even customize one for you, so I added her blog name (which will remain anonymous....in case she figures me out!) I still haven't heard from my secret pal, but I hear she's trying to contact me...If you're out there, secret pal, leave a comment here!
In my crazy yarn spree, I picked up some Diakeito diamusee in this funky rainbowy colorway. What else to use it for other than the famous Clapotis? (Does it even need the link?) I wanted mine to be more of a scarf than a shawl, so I only increased to half the total width. I'm about 2/3 of the way done now (ok I used 2 of the 3 balls...).
Click to enlarge either image:
Anyone know how to put up those rockin progress bars? I just started working on the NSS Cardigan from Knit and Tonic, and here are some progress shots. I'm using Debbie Bliss baby cashmerino. It's so soft, and already I can tell it's going to be really drapey...surprisingly I got gague on 6's, so I didn't have to make any mods to the pattern, although I think I'm going to make it a bit longer than waist length because my waist = a waste.
When I was 10, my parents and I went to a party at my mom's cousin's house, and all their kids are way older than me (in fact everyone in my family is!). I was always a pretty loud kid, and spoke without thinking first. True to form, this day was no different. Trying to get everyone to notice me, I started in on my dad...who was eating everything in sight, and wearing a too-tight zip up cardigan...I yelled out across the pool table, expecting a chuckle from the crowd, "hey dad, you know in that sweater you have no waist!" My dad, always quick with the retort, yells back, "You're a waste!"...Everyone holding their beers cracked up. Embarrassed, I didn't open my mouth the rest of the day! So, here is the first teeny bit of the cardigan, I hope (thanks to Wendy) will never, ever be too tight on the waist.
For all of you in Texas, Louisiana or anywhere else in Rita's path, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

ConTech's: The startups that are changing the world of construction
Venture capitalists invested $1.05 billion in global construction technology (ConTech) in the first half of 2018. The investment volume of 2018 is already up nearly 30 percent over the 2017 total – and there's still another six months left in the year. ConTech's growth is enticing to users and investors alike, with investment growth actually outpacing overall tech startup investment growth in the United States.
In today's world, software, technology and computing power are not universally adopted in construction, but startups are working to change that. It's no mere accident that this uptick in ConTech investing coincide with an industry plagued by cost fluctuations, labor shortage issues and overall lack of productivity improvements – creating what many venture capitalists view as a prime opportunity for disruption. With construction schedules expanding and labor and materials costs rising, ConTech startups like Katerra and Uptake are the solution to these problems, promising to deliver projects faster, with fewer resources and cheaper than ever before. How? These startups are focusing on three big areas: collaboration software, offsite construction and big data and artificial intelligence.
Collaboration software
In today's construction environment, dozens of professionals can be working on a given construction project simultaneously – sharing documents, providing edits and making on-the-ground decisions. To combat version control and speed up the paper passing process, a sizeable chunk of ConTechs are focused on optimizing that workflow. Front-runners are utilizing cloud capabilities, mobile platforms and dedicated design software that allow for plants and markups to be shared instantaneously with all project stakeholders.
Offsite construction
As skilled construction labor becomes harder to find, materials continue to rise in price, and general competition for construction inputs heats up – offsite construction startups are championing a different approach to how buildings are built. Offsite startups are focused on fabricating building components in a manufacturing setting, then shipping the pieces to the final building location for rapid assembly. Offsite construction can be leveraged for nearly every property type, and it utilizes intense supply chain optimization and just-in-time delivery to quickly and economically construct buildings.
Big data and artificial intelligence
Today – by way of the internet of things, beacon technology and smart software – nearly every aspect of a construction site and project can collect data. Startups that leverage big data and artificial intelligence are aiming to utilize these massive data sets as a tool to make more informed decisions on a construction site. Successful startups cover a range of solutions from optimizing materials deliveries and worker placement on site, to preemptively predicting equipment maintenance and automating simple business processes.
The pool of investors and venture capitalists in the construction technology field remains diverse. Both general tech and real estate specific investors are buying into the sector, but notorious startup accelerator Y Combinator has been the most active to date. While construction venture capital activity has quickly picked up in recent quarters, corporate investors remain notably absent from the active pool of investors.

Cookie, Melbourne
I don't often have leaving-the-country dinners, but when I do, I pick the biggest and most central spot I know of. And Cookie is perfect for both of those. The huge space in the centre of Swanston Street accommodates many. As well as the handy spot, there's no booking required, we could easily find a space for ourselves in the beer hall on the night. At a cursory glance it looks like a mere bar venue, but take a bite and you'll know there's a solid Asian-fusion kitchen. The food ordering of the beer hall component is trample-over-people and madly-queue-order at the counter.
Food came out at a lightning pace, with dishes magically arriving upon mere moments of reclaiming one's seat. That, or the drinks were getting to me. Probably both. The prices are as enormous as the menu, but the quality is good and I was happy with my green curry with chicken and corn dumplings, yard beans and basil ($28.50). I had swiped some of Jo's deep fried five-spice chicken ($23.50) and that was also tasty. I enjoyed the service at Cookie for our big group and it did the trick for one of my last gasps of the eating scene.
