I'm still planning, haven't yet gone fishing to see if I can get a buddy invite (and start my 21 day clock). I've pretty much decided that I can't do it in a 14 day trial. Some people might, I'm just not that good.
Anyway, as already noted my only real avenue is trade. One thing I've noticed in preparing is that a lot of people don't get trade. Oh, everyone gets the basic rule of buy low, sell high. And they manage that for what I'm going to call tier zero and tier one trading.
Tier zero is when you sell your loot on the market. Whether it's from NPCs or other players or mission rewards or production, everyone accumulates these things that are for the most part useless to them. They take it to the market and sell it. Pretty much everyone looks at the current lowest 'sell' price, picks a number some distance below that, and puts it up. They don't really care about the price, they want it gone — and any money beats no money.
Tier one tends to turn into hauling. Basically, you watch the market – usually several markets – and look for someone selling something for which there's a higher buy order elsewhere. Buy it at A, haul it to B, sell it for profit. Much of the strategizing here deals with getting the most money per jump.
An interjection for the non-EVE players, especially the WoW players. EVE has a complex market system. In other words you can not only put up things for sale, you can put up standing orders to buy things. You have to put your money up (though you can get skills that let you only put part of it up front and promise payment on sale). In addition there is not a unified market. Oh, you can see markets at other stations in your region, but there are a lot of other regions. And while you can buy at range (and with skills sell at range as well) the deal isn't closed till the package reaches the station. Mostly.
Anyway, there's a thriving trade-haul opportunity that is buying in one place, hauling, and selling it somewhere else. There's also a little niche: pure hauling under contract. But that's a digression and is not something I can do right now.
What I call tier two trading gets a little trickier. Here what you do is see there's a gap between the highest buy order and the lowest sell. You offer to buy the stuff at a price better than anyone else. Then when you've got it, you offer to sell it at a price lower than anyone else.
This, by the way, is most of what I'll be doing. I'll offer to buy some things at a price higher than others are asking, then I'll offer to sell them (perhaps elsewhere) for less than others but at levels that still make me a profit.
So what are the big challenges? Basically there are three. First, there need to be available sellers of the goods. The people who've got buy orders up are competitors, not customers. And since you're offering to buy at a price below that of the current sell orders none of them are going to sell to you. You have to have someone(s) who will sell to you.
Second problem is the flipside of this. You need to have buyers. Paying for a bunch of widgets and seeing them languish on your shelves gathering dust is bad.
Third problem generates harsh words. That's dealing with competition, usually through bidding wars. There are two general camps here: the coppercutters (or .01 iskers) and the bidjumpers. The former enter the market (or change their offer) to be .01 ISK (or 1 copper) more desirable than the current best bid. The latter jump wildly – frequently by ten or twenty percent. The former tend to be players with plenty of time who can get on and stay on, making another bid each time they're jumped. The latter, well, they're usually one-shotters. They're people who do not want to stay and watch the bids.
As a rule, the cutters tend to be players with very large inventories while the jumpers' inventories are (relatively) smaller. Cutters expect to be selling their goods over a period of weeks, Jumpers expect their goods to go in a couple of days.
Both camps despise the other. The cutters accuse the jumpers of destroying the profit margins. The jumpers accuse the cutters of smothering sales. They're both right. And both are successful sometimes, sometimes losers. Hey, some people PVP, some PVE, life goes on. But I digress, again.
Are there more tiers? Yes, but they require skills I won't have for a while. Are there more complications? Oh, yes – taxes and broker fees, scammers, pirates, cross-region trading, and more.
It's a challenge.

Hey I got this problem I have just come across. I have this sample I had sliced up prior. slices sound good and what not, the sample file has the little emblem showing it has the slice saved on it. I learned this great trick from Klerr (youtube) where you can get all your slices for a given sample you sliced up before and assign them with the dial to all the different parts.
The process is as follows
go into pattern edit mode. tap a part button you want to assign. scroll down on the part edit menu to slice no. then use dial to get what you want out of the sample. I
have done this with much ease and happiness. However, I have this one sample I was mentioning in the beginning there, which when I scroll down to slice no, instead of showing the "All slices" bit it shows "---". Why and how do I avoid this in the future? Thank you for your time and insight.

MUMBAI, India — Bal K. Thackeray, a newspaper cartoonist who became a powerful influence in this city by championing and stoking the grievances of the native population and Hindus against outsiders and Muslims, died on Saturday at his home in Mumbai. He was 86.
The cause of death was a heart attack, Mr. Thackeray's doctor, Jalil Parkar, said.
Mr. Thackeray, who had described himself as an admirer of Hitler, was a formidable force in Mumbai for more than four decades even as he grew increasingly frail. Many shops, restaurants and other businesses shut down after his death was announced, as his followers prepared to mourn him and others anticipated violence by members of his right-wing and often-militant political party, the Shiv Sena. Streets out of downtown Mumbai were clogged Saturday afternoon as office workers and others rushed to get home to avoid getting caught up in any possible scuffles. Throngs of police officers were standing by and guiding traffic through busy intersections.
In New Delhi, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh appealed for "calm and sobriety during this period of loss and mourning" and canceled a dinner with opposition lawmakers to discuss a contentious session of Parliament that is scheduled to start on Thursday. In a statement, Mr. Singh lauded Mr. Thackeray's "strong leadership and extraordinary organizational skills."
Bal Keshav Thackeray was born on Jan. 23, 1926, in the city of Pune, about 100 miles east of Mumbai, and came of age during India's struggle for freedom from Britain. His father, Keshav Sitaram Thackeray, a journalist and activist, was said to have taken the surname because he admired the English novelist William Makepeace Thackeray. The elder Mr. Thackeray became a leader of a movement to establish the state of Maharashtra for speakers of the Marathi language, a group that would become a core constituency. Mumbai, then known as Bombay and to this day the financial hub of India, became the capital of the new state.
The younger Mr. Thackeray gained fame as a cartoonist first at the daily Free Press Journal and later at his own weekly publication, Marmik. He used his cartoons to inveigh against communists and champion the cause of the Marathi manoos, or the average Marathi citizen, who he argued was losing out to south Indians, Muslims and other outsiders. In 1966, he established the Shiv Sena, or the Army of Shiva; its mascot is a snarling tiger.
In the early years of the Shiv Sena, Mr. Thackeray battled communists and their labor unions, especially in the city's large textile industry. He was supported, scholars say, by textile mill owners and the governing Congress Party because he was taking on their opponents.
But his success came in his ability to win over Marathi-speaking working- and middle-class Hindus. Mr. Thackeray did so by arguing that Muslims and people from other parts of India had unfairly cornered the city's jobs, resources and wealth. He also argued that outsiders should be forced out and others should be barred from coming.
He and his followers often invoked and drew their legitimacy from Shivaji, a 17th-century king of the Maratha kingdom of western India who frequently battled and defeated the Mughal Empire that dominated northern India.
"He referred to the injustices, real or imagined, suffered by the Marathi speakers in order to constitute them as the only legitimate 'people,' " Gyan Prakash, a history professor at Princeton University, wrote in his 2010 book "Mumbai Fables." "The claim was that a part of society, the oppressed underdogs, was its whole; the Marathi manoos was the sum total of the community."
Supporters say Mr. Thackeray gave voice to Marathi speakers who had been taken for granted by national politicians, often from northern India. Much of Mumbai's corporate and cultural elite is made up of Indians from other parts of the country who are more comfortable speaking English. Mr. Thackeray's party also won the support of Mumbai residents by setting up branch offices in most neighborhoods that, analysts say, were efficient at resolving conflicts and complaints about municipal services.
While Mr. Thackeray never held elected office, his political party and its allies governed the state from 1995 to 1999 and have been in charge of Mumbai's city government for more than 16 years. While his party held power at the state level, Bombay was renamed Mumbai after a fishing village that predated the Portuguese colonization of the seven islands that would become the city.
Mr. Thackeray came to dominate the city in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when Hindu-Muslim tensions were high. Critics say that he took advantage of the religious strains, particularly the destruction of a 12th-century mosque in northern India by Hindu extremists in 1992, to consolidate power. Days after the destruction, riots broke out across Mumbai, and over two months, about 1,000 people were killed in the city, most of them Muslims.
An inquiry into the riots by two retired judges determined that Mr. Thackeray and his followers had provoked the unrest. Yet he was never prosecuted for that or any of the other numerous violent episodes involving the Shiv Sena. Analysts and Mr. Thackeray himself have said that he was simply too powerful to be challenged.
Mr. Thackeray, a short man who often wore big sunglasses, sported a full beard and draped himself in saffron-colored clothes favored by right-wing Hindus, was often quixotic and hard to label. For instance, even as dating became more acceptable in India, he opposed the celebration of Valentine's Day as "alien to our culture," and members of his party attacked shops and people who celebrated the day. Yet, he welcomed Michael Jackson's 1996 concert tour to Mumbai with gusto and called the singer a "great artist." He also relished drinking Heineken beer and wine and was frequently photographed with a cigar or pipe.
People who met him said he came across as charming and funny, and was engaged in the arts and movies.
Mr. Thackeray's death could create a struggle for power in Mumbai and Maharashtra, India's richest and most industrialized state. His son Uddhav, his designated heir, has been hospitalized twice this year for a heart condition and is considered less charismatic and influential.
Many analysts say the Shiv Sena, the second-largest party in the state after the governing Congress Party, could lose ground to Mr. Thackeray's bombastic nephew, Raj, who left the Shiv Sena in 2006 and started a rival party, the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena. Recently, Raj Thackeray was prominently photographed fetching Uddhav from the hospital after a checkup, fueling speculation that the two sides of the family might reconcile.
In addition to Uddhav, Mr. Thackeray is survived by another son, Jaidev, and eight grandchildren. His wife, Meena, died in 1995, and his eldest son, Bindumadhav, died a year later in a car accident.
Party officials told local television networks that his followers could pay their last respects to Mr. Thackeray at Shivaji Park, the central site in Mumbai where he started his party and held many of his rallies, on Sunday before his body was cremated.

Just admit it. You suck at cooking. Therefore, that annoying little fire alarm over your head has probably saved your life a few times. So an alarm that sends out texts to emergency contacts sounds amazing right?
The FireText does just that. It's has a GSM SIM card on its underside that allows you to send fire-related texts to up to four numbers. Great idea. Say you left the stove on before running out to work. Or something's burning while you sleep. Your alarm will let you know, either directly or through a friend, that there could be a fire.
But what if you're cooking a big ol' steak and the smoke's a little out of hand. Not only do you have to deactivate the alarm, but you'd need to calm your panicked friends downs after the little bastard made them think you were burnt to a crisp. Imagine dealing with that a couple of times a month, on top of the carrier charges to send out the texts.

The intra-commodity spreading pushed the soybean/corn ratio to new highs for the week. November soybeans closed 20 ½ cents higher at $16.45 ¾. December wheat closed 12 ¾ cents higher while December corn closed ¼ cent lower.
Today's Cattle on Feed report showed slightly lower placements than what the market was calling for. The high price of feed is clearly affecting the feed demand as the latest WASDE report shows the "feed and residual" estimate dropping by 725 million bushels of corn.
The CFTC's Commitment of Traders report showed another increase to the already massive long positions the funds are holding in corn, wheat, and soybeans. Using futures and options combined, the "managed money" alone is long 1.516 billion bushels of corn, 1.1577 billion bushels of soybeans, and 385.520 million bushels of Chicago wheat. Obviously these huge positions have helped push us to these lofty levels. How much more will they add to these positions and how long will they stay with them are the questions to ask.
The Weekly Export Sales Report showed strong soybean sales but corn and wheat both fell below the estimated range. Corn above $8 has obviously taken a toll on the export pace which has restricted its upside. At the same time the price can't afford to fall very far and create a bunch of demand until we know more about the crop size. For this reason we think we are stuck in a holding pattern between $7.50 and $8.50 until we get further into harvest.
While corn is in a supply market we believe soybeans are in a demand market. Crush continues to outpace estimates. Exports have been strong. At the same time the recent rains have the market wondering if bean yields have improved. In our opinion once we get past the supply question soybeans will have a bigger story than corn.

A new sliding control is coming to the Ancestry search function over the next couple of weeks. Located in the upper-left corner of the search results page, it will make it easy to quickly broaden or narrow your search results. Don't see the search results you were expecting? Simply drag one or more sliders from left to right to quickly modify your results. The slider position shows how closely your search terms should be matched. With all the sliders to the left, your results are matched at the broadest level, and moving one or more sliders to the right will display more exact matches. - See more at: http://blogs.ancestry.com/ancestry/2014/02/24/coming-soon-to-search-more-control-over-your-results/?
This new feature addresses a common problem among users of the large online databases; the proliferation of results that appear to be "false positives." The issue of false positives or results that have the same general terms as used in a search but are the wrong person, give the impression to most users that the search engine does not work. For example, if I search for "John Jones in Pennsylvania" and I get results showing dozens of "John Jones" results but all in other states, they I suspect the program doesn't work. Actually, the search engine is usually doing just what it is supposed to do and give results based on the parameters set by the algorithms employed by the programmers. In this case, there is likely an instruction to the search program to default the search to a larger geographic area if there are no results that match the original search terms.
I realize that my characterization of what happens is highly simplified, but from the standpoint of a user of search engine receiving hundreds or even millions of results which are not what the user is looking for can be disconcerting.
I just checked my Ancestry.com account and do not see the new feature yet, so I will have to wait to evaluate whether or not it addresses the issues of false positives. Stay tuned.

Reproduces the voice with a clean, clear and natural sound.
The CROWN PCC-170 is a surface-mounted supercardioid microphone of professional quality. This handsomely styled unit is appropriate for use on the most elegant boardroom table or lectern. Other applications include churches, courtrooms and council chambers. Because of its highly directional pickup pattern, the CROWN PCC-170 minimizes background noise and feedback. The microphone reproduces the voice with a clean, clear and natural sound.
Since the microphone capsule is placed on a boundary or surface, direct and reflected sounds arrive at the diaphragm in-phase. This coherent addition of direct and reflected waves increase sensitivity 6 dB and prevents phase cancellations.
The mic capsule is small enough to ensure phase coherency up to the highest frequencies in the audible spectrum, resulting in a wide, smooth frequency response free of phase interference. Clarity and reach are also enhanced. Self-noise is low and sensitivity is very high and an RFI suppression is included. A bass-tilt switch allows the user to tailor the low-end response for particular applications.
Self-contained electronics eliminate the need for an in-line preamp. Powered by 12-48V phantom power, the PCC-170 has a low-impedance mic level balanced output which permits long cable runs without hum pickup or high-frequency loss.
Order a boundary mic with enhanced clarity and reach.

It has always been my life goal to one day be an animal cop, just like the show on Animal Planet. As I grew older my vision for myself changed slightly but still had animals in mind. At 26 years old I decided to start my own non-profit animal rescue. Miffy's Animal Rescue, named after my rescued poodle, was established in March of 2016. In two years' time I saved 400 sweet souls from high kill shelters and have placed 100% of them into loving FURever homes. I am very excited to be speaking at World Dog Expo this year to share my experience and knowledge on how to open a non-profit animal rescue. There more rescues we have, the more lives we can save.

NEW Y O RK HAVANA NEW YORK MEXICO CITY PHILADELPHIA MONTREAL VOL. X NEW Y O R K , M A R C H , 1927 No. 3 part which standards have played in the development of this country becomes increasingly apparent as one has occasion to travel about. For many years products of American manufacture have been noted for their standardized features. Watches, automobiles, and what-not made in America have led the world in their widespread distribution because of the fact that any component may be replaced without the necessity of discarding the whole when one part becomes impaired. The application of the principle of standardization is seen now throughout the country in various forms. One boards a night train and enters a sleeper. Whether the city is San Francisco, Chicago, or New York matters not. The equipment, character of service, comforts and conveniences are the same. In the morning, the dining-car furnishes the traveler his favorite breakfast. At destination, a porter takes his grips. A taxicab conveys him to his hotel. But the standardized hotel is not confined to the large cities. In Raleigh, North Carolina; Middletown, Ohio; Flint, Michigan, or any other typical American city, the characteristic elements of hotel service are present, even though the service may vary in the rendering. Picking up a morning newspaper in "America's Most Interesting City," one reads advertisements of investment houses, department stores, automobile sales concerns, and steamship companies. The copy, display, and appeal are typical. Mentally shutting out the surroundings, it is difficult to tell whether one is in New Orleans, or Seattle, or Boston. Modern office buildings and elevator service, banking rooms, spacious and well appointed, facilitate one's orientation with never a thought as to whereabouts. Theatres, moving picture houses and feature pictures are the same everywhere. All these things are stimulated by a desire to be progressive. They are fostered by highly developed means of communication. They typify the spirit of standardization in the United States of America. By way of contrast, consider the profession of accountancy. Nothing in this country has had less planning, less cultivation, less organized guidance. The profession today represents little more than a mass of individuals struggling with individual problems, trying to work them out in the light of varying degrees of education, experience, natural ability, and brute strength. There have been instances, of course, where organized attempts have been made to take advantage of research, These Standardized United States THE

SPOKANE, Wash. -- Whitworth ground out a methodical 34-7 win over visiting Pomona-Pitzer in a non-conference NCAA Division III football match-up on Saturday afternoon at the Pine Bowl.
The Pirates improved to 1-0 while the Sagehens fell to 0-1 on the hottest day of the summer as temperatures hit 90 degrees by kickoff and reached 94 in the second half.
Pomona-Pitzer actually had an 18-14 advantage in first downs and the final yardage tally was only 317-231 in favor of Whitworth. But the difference is in the details. The Pirates averaged 6.1 yards per play, while Pomona was held to only 3.0 yards per play.
The Sagehens took the opening kickoff and marched quickly down field behind the strong running of tailback Luke Sweeney, who ran 10 times for 60 yards in the series to give Pomona-Pitzer a first down on Whitworth's eight yard line. But three plays from there netted -2 yards and the field goal was never attempted after the snap went through the holder's hands and Whitworth recovered the ball at midfield.
Ten plays later quarterback Bryan Peterson carred in from six yards out to give Whitworth a 7-0 lead.
Early in the second quarter Peterson completed a ten-yard pass to Jake DeGooyer over the middle and DeGooyer eluded several defenders to turn the play into a 55-yard touchdown pass. After a missed extra point the Pirates led 13-0.
Whitworth held Pomona on fourth down on the Pirate 24 yard line, then marched 76 yards in 13 plays with DJ Tripoli scoring from three yards away for a 20-0 lead with less than two minutes to play before halftime.
Whitworth then took the opening possession of the second half 63 yards in only five plays. Tailback Ronnie Thomas ran for 48 of those yards and scored from three yards away for a 27-0 Whitworth lead.
Whitworth's final score was set up when Fernando Noriega returned a short Sagehen punt 28 yards to Pomona-Pitzer's four yard line. Sean Scott scored on the next play for a 34-0 Pirate lead.
Pomona-Pitzer finally got into the endzone with 3:52 to play when quarterback Luke Ferguson snuck in from one yard away on fourth down. The Sagehens had four plays to try and score from the two yard line after Whitworth was called for pass interference in the endzone.
Thomas led Whitworth's ground game with 84 yards on ten carries. Scott finished with 43 yards and Tripoli with 33 as the Pirates gained 206 yards on the ground.
Peterson was 4-5 for 80 yards and one touchdown. Zac Hill completed 4-7 passes for 31 yards with one interception that went through the hands of a receiver and to Pomona's Andre Shepley. DeGooyer caught two passes for 68 yards and Devon Lind caught three for 15 yards as the Pirates stayed primarily on the ground in the second half.
Sweeney was a work-horse for Pomona-Pitzer, running 41 times for 176 yards. Fullback Zack Tannous added 49 yards on five carries. But Ferguson struggled, completing only 4 of 19 passes for 35 yards. And on three occassions passes that should have been caught were dropped by his receivers.
Freshman cornerback Paul Miller had a big game on defense for Whitworth, leading the team with nine tackles, including two for losses of four yards, while breaking up two passes. Freshman Danny Rowton, converted from running back to linebacker just last week, had five tackles while coming off of the bench. Casey Monahan had his first interception of the season, while first-year linebackers Grant Livingston and Sam Schloesler each came up with a fumble recovery.
Jacob Rawlins led Pomona-Pitzer with 10 tackles, while Kyle Roskamp was in on nine stops.
Whitworth will stay at home next weekend, hosting 20th-ranked Redlands at 1:00 p.m. in the Pine Bowl.
Pomona-Pitzer will play its home-opener, taking on Northwest Conference member Lewis & Clark.

Compensation Philosophy
The university's compensation policies are designed to meet objectives allowing the university to provide a competitive compensation program that will attract and retain the best qualified employees; ensure that jobs and salaries within the organization bear equitable relationships to one another based on comparability of duties, complexity and scope of responsibilities, and that they are classified to appropriately reflect those relationships. Additionally, the university strives to provide compensation rewards and pay systems that motivate and recognize excellent performance and ensure compliance with all federal and state laws and regulations governing pay.
Staff salaries and pay grades are reviewed on an annual basis, considering such factors as cost of living, market data analysis, workforce supply and demand fluctuations, and federal and state minimum wage guidelines, while recognizing the university's not-for-profit status.
Administrative and executive salaries and pay grades are also reviewed on an annual basis, to ensure compliance with the key principles of the university's compensation plan:
- Comprehensive and aligned with the strategic plans and business objectives of the university, and supportive of its mission and values;
- Performance oriented, rewarding administrators and executives for meeting the university's goals consistent with its principles;
- In total, competitive with like universities to allow the university to attract quality talent;
- Recognizes the superlative intrinsic qualities of the university as an aid in motivation, engagement, and retention of administrators and executives;
- Clear, easy to administer, and well communicated so that the purpose and value of each component is understood by administrators, executives and the Board of Trustees;
- Flexible, to reflect the circumstances and issues important to the university, administrators and executives at any point in time.
The University of San Diego will target administrative and executive salaries and total compensation at market 50th percentile of comparable institutions that are
- similar size (current and expected),
- national (doctoral granting),
- private (Catholic/other),
- west coast.
The Board of Trustees has determined a "primary" group of like institutions against which it will compare its salaries.

JERUSALEM, ISRAEL: Some 450 Ethiopians boarded two Jewish Agency-chartered flights bound for Israel on Wednesday, August 28 and arrived in Tel Aviv a few hours later as immigrants.
Hundreds of relatives who have been living in Israel were at the airport to meet them.
Among them were Bertuken, whose sister will join her and their mother at Mevasseret Zion Absorption Center. The immigrants will be housed at the 17 Absorption Centers around the country operated by The Jewish Agency in partnership with the Ministry of Absorption. There they will continue to learn Hebrew and other skills to ease their integration into Israeli society.
Another family, Alamu and Enguday Eshete of Holon, were at the ceremony as well. They were reunited with their daughter, Sinedu (25), after nine years of separation, and Enguday met her two grandchildren for the first time today.
Since Dove's Wings' inception by the Government of Israel in 2010, The Jewish Agency has brought 7,000 Ethiopian Jews to Israel, the majority of whom are members of the Falash Mura community, and several hundred of whom were eligible for Aliyah through Israel's Law of Return.
"The Jewish community of Ethiopia is one of the oldest in the world, with roots reaching back to the times of King Solomon and Queen Sheba. For thousands of years this community has been yearning for Zion. By completing the Journey of Operation Dove's Wings, we close the circle on a journey that began 3,000 years ago," said Chairman of The Jewish Agency, Natan Sharansky, as he welcomed the new immigrants.
While, Wednesday's flights bring this historic effort to a dramatic close, "the work is not over. Now we have to make sure these new immigrants integrate into Israeli society." said Housing Minister, Uri Ariel, who has labored for the past 20 years to bring Ethiopians Jews to Israel. He promised to "work tirelessly to make sure these new immigrants receive the loan and mortgage benefits to which they are entitled. This is my duty as well as the government's."
Speakers at the welcoming ceremony also included Sofa Landver, Minister of Immigrant Absorption, International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (IFCJ) President Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, Keren Hayesod-United International Appeal Chairman Eliezer (Moodi) Sandberg, as well as KH-UIA member Artum Kleinman and Jewish Federations of North America President and CEO Jerry Silverman, among others.
Sharansky thanked The Agency's partners for their support in bringing these new immigrants home to Israel and in facilitating their absorption into Israeli society a group effort that began in 1948 and which has, to date, brought 92,000 Ethiopians Jews to Israel. Sharansky added that The Jewish Agency will continue to help all those who are eligible for Aliyah, per Israel's Ministry of Interior, move to Israel, as The Agency does for Jews the world over.
Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein of the IFCJ's wished the the new immigrants a speedy transition to their new home, and promised to continue to support Ethiopian immigrants.
"Thanks to the generosity of Jewish communities around the world, Keren Hayesod has been able to bring immigrants to Israel and help them thrive once here," said KH-UIA Chairman Eliezer (Moodi) Sandberg.
"Today we celebrate a new chapter in the remarkable story of how the Jewish community led the historic campaign to bring Ethiopian Jewry home to the Land of Israel, which continues today as Ethiopian Israelis make their mark in Israeli politics and culture," said President and CEO of JFNA Jerry Silverman.

Be sure to check in over the next few days for highlights from the moving ceremony, and photographs from the journey from Gondar to Israel.

Gran Turismo 4 US Release Date Announced
Posted by Hector Martinez Categories: Video Games
In what has got to be the most shocking bit of news we've heard today, Gran Turismo 4 has been announced for release on February 22 in the United States. Reports had previously confirmed the European release as being next month, so we were wondering what was the hold up stateside. The latest installment of this driving simulation series had been previously scheduled for a release here late last year. Since then, it's been released in Japan and we've waited for what feels like an eternity for additional cars and features to be added. Now we can all go and complain about something else for a change.

|Basic parts of an outboard motor (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
PRATT — March of 2012 has been a mild month, and anglers and recreational boaters are eager to get on the water. This means it's time to prepare boats and trailers for a trouble-free boating season. The Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism (KDWPT) recommends the following simple steps so that your boat works properly and safely before launch. Not only will you have more fun, but you and your family will be safer.Outboard motor
Replace the lower unit grease. Grease all zerks on the motor, and make sure the steering mechanism is lubricated and working smoothly. Clean or replace spark plugs. Check fuel lines. Remove the prop and check for nicks or gouges. Remove any old fishing line or weeds from shaft. Grease the shaft and replace the cotter pin on the shaft nut. You can start the motor in your driveway if you have a pair of motor muffs, which attach to a garden hose and force water into your motor's water intake ports. Never start your motor dry. If your engine is oil injected, fill the oil reservoir and test the temperature warning signal device.
Grease the wheel hubs. Check the tires for weathering and proper inflation. Check wire connections and make sure all lights work. Lubricate the trailer winch and check the winch strap for wear. Make sure the hitch is sound and safety chains are in place. Check the ball and tighten if necessary.
Batteries should have been charged every 30 days throughout the winter. Inspect and clean all battery connections. Water levels should be checked in each cell, and batteries should be fully charged before the first trip. Check the batteries several days before a trip to make sure they are holding a charge.
Electrical gear
Check all bilge pumps and electrical gauges. Tighten any loose connections and secure wire harnesses.
Safety Gear
Inspect all life jackets and throwable cushions. They must be in good working condition to be legal. Be sure a sound-making device or working horn is on board. Test the boat lights, clean connections, and replace bulbs if needed. It's also important to make sure your boating registration is up to date.
In addition to these items, boaters should make sure drain plugs work and keep a spare on board. Other items should include first aid kit, anchor, paddle, tool kit, electrical tape and wire connectors, a variety of spare fuses, extra two-cycle oil, spare trailer light bulbs, and extra life jackets.
And don't forget boater education. Any person born on or after Jan. 1, 1989, must complete an approved boater safety education course in order to operate a motorboat or sailboat on public waters in Kansas. This requirement does not apply to a person accompanied by and under the direct supervision of a person age 17 or older who either possesses a certificate of completion of an approved boater safety education course or is legally exempt from the requirement.
For more information, click "Boating" on the KDWPT website, ksoutdoors.com, phone 620-672-0770, or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

After this weekend's sugar binge, I had to start today on the right track. I know that I have to force myself to start eating better again. The fact that I haven't worked out since last Thursday is not helping. 😦 So this week will officially be Operation: Get Back on Track. Catchy name, yes?
I started the day with a healthy breakfast of eggs, all natural bacon, cheese, and 365 Organic Mighty Multigrain bread. Of course, I couldn't forget the hot sauce. 😉
This breakfast was tasty, filling, and healthy. Loved it!
I continued my healthy eating at lunch. I had Jason's Deli (I LOVE this place!). I had half a whole grain wrap with marinated chicken, sautéed onions and peppers, and low-fat honey mustard.
I had some of their delicious Southwest Chicken Chili with my wrap.
This evening, when I got home the last thing I felt like doing was working out. I was tired from work and just tired in general. But I remember a good point that Julie made recently. There are 168 hours in a week. Seven hours dedicated to exercise is really not that much in the grand scheme of things. So I did a (very intense) 40 minute strength training workout by Exercise On Demand, followed by 20 minutes on the elliptical. I felt so much better after the workout! I am going to repeat this to myself when I am not motivated to work out.
After my workout, I played with my dog a bit and my husband made a delicious dinner: whole wheat pasta with organic pasta sauce and some cooked chicken breast as well. Yummy!
The highlight of my day? Receiving my very first Christmas gift, courtesy of Amazon. My very good friend, Luke sent me a few items off my Amazon wish list. This was a total surprise, which made it even better!
In the package was Seduced by Bacon: recipes an lore about American's favorite indulgence, Pumpkin: a super food, for all 12 months of the year, and A Reliable Wife. I have to admit that when I saw the books about pumpkin and bacon, I was drooling a little. I can't wait to go through all the recipes! And the third one, A Reliable Wife, will be perfect reading material for my upcoming trip to Alabama to visit Corey's family. Thanks Luke! 🙂
It occurred to me today that it is going to be difficult to schedule in time for working out this week. Difficult, but not impossible. There are a million things to do in the days leading up to Christmas. There are last minute gifts to buy, presents to wrap, baking to be done, an oven that needs replacing, and of course I will have to pack for a trip to Alabama to visit my husband's family.
With all of these items on my to-do list, the stress is going to be higher than ever. I will probably feel like skipping workouts to do other things (or just relax and watch TV) and I will probably feel the urge to binge on sweet snacks. I need to focus on my goal of losing weight and remember how incredible working out makes me feel. I may not be able to lose very much weight this holiday season, but I can certainly do my best to maintain it. And if I stay active, maybe I won't feel so guilty if I have an extra cookie (or four). 🙂
How are you planning on staying fit this holiday season?

A competitive racer/cruiser that's fun to sail & easy to handle,
with accommodations for weekend cruising
As in all life sports, knowledge and experience lead to ownership of the best performing products. 9 out of 10 J/Boat buyers have owned sailboats before. They want the best ... a sailboat that meets their seasoned expectations for both enjoyment and return on investment. That's why so many people are sailing "J's" an average of 55 days per year.
To enjoy sailing over a longer season, unique demands are placed on sailboat design: Speed and manageability in light and heavy winds; dryness and cabin protection in cold or wet weather; stability and safety to handle the unexpected; durability and strength for long life and rough handling. Hull design is the most important factor in this equation. The faster a boat sails, the more sailing you can do. And the faster a new boat sails versus similar sized boats, the longer the life cycle of the design ... and the better the long term resale value and owner satisfaction. That's why we try to stay 10 years ahead of the competition with superior designs. Mere styling gimmicks or production versions of last year's custom race winner may work short term, but will backfire over time. People are beginning to realize that excellent ALL AROUND performance is necessary for season long success.
J/33 has more speed, ease of handling, open deck space, and comfort than any comparable performance sailboat under 35 feet. J/33 incorporates unique features which define what an offshore racing boat is all about.
Speed & Ease of Handling
Masthead Rig
Another benefit of this sailplan is it makes harbor tours and daysails a cinch. Plus, it brings peace of mind knowing you can beat off a lee shore with just main alone in a storm. The small jibs are light enough for the younger ones to horse around and they are much easier to fold and store. A bonus is the spinnaker isn't so large that it overpowers the boat in a breeze, so J/33 is easier to control off the wind ... ie. J/33 has less of a tendency to "spin out" on a tight reach.

DAHLONEGA, Ga. - Senior guard Ty Rowland (Lilburn, Ga.) poured in a career-high 26 points, helping the No. 17 Georgia College & State University men's basketball team (22-4, 15-2 PBC) to an 84-68 victory at North Georgia (15-12, 10-7 PBC) Saturday night.
Rowland hit 6-of-8 from downtown and 8-of-12 overall, adding four assists and six rebounds. Senior Graham Martin (Marietta, Ga.) did a great job getting to the line, adding 19 points while going 12-of-12 from the free-throw stripe. Junior forward Josh Hurst (Athens, Ga.) went 6-of-10 from the floor, finishing with 17 points.
The Saints had four double-figure scorers, led by Carl Taylor's 19 points. Andrew Bennett and Tyler Norman added 15 points each, with Bernard Rimmer tallying 11.
The second half told the story, as the Bobcats took a one-point game and out-scored NGCSU 43-28. The 'Cats hit 12-of-23 from the floor in the second half, good for 52 percent. GCSU put the clamps on defensively, allowing just 33 percent second half shooting from the Saints, 10-of-30 shooting.
The Bobcats are back in action Wednesday, March 3 at 7 p.m., hosting the first round of the Peach Belt Conference (PBC) Tournament. As the No. 1 seed, the Bobcats will take on No. 4-seed Clayton State University at the Centennial Center.

STOCKTON - Councilwoman Kathy Miller contributed $5,000 from her campaign fund Wednesday to a newly formed group seeking to pass a sales tax increase in the Nov. 5 election.
STOCKTON - Councilwoman Kathy Miller contributed $5,000 from her campaign fund Wednesday to a newly formed group seeking to pass a sales tax increase in the Nov. 5 election.
Miller said other members of the Stockton City Council were taking similar action to show voters that they have skin in the game and to win passage of Measures A and B.
"I don't think there's anything right now more important for our city than to pass these measures, improve our safety and get us out of bankruptcy," Miller said. "It's my hope that the public will join us."
Councilman Moses Zapien said he's contributing a $500 personal check, and Mayor Anthony Silva said he plans to contribute, but he hasn't decided how much.
Community members supporting the 3/4-cent sales tax increase also Wednesday unveiled a website to make their case to voters and seeking contributions.
Jane Butterfield, the recently retired CEO at Community Bank of San Joaquin, is leading the push to pass Measures A and B, expected to raise $28 million in the first full year. The measures would take effect in April.
"We are confident that Stockton can emerge from bankruptcy financially strong, with a strong sense of pride and a renewed vision," Butterfield said.
She's joined on the committee by Jose Rodriguez, Carol Ornelas and Gene Gini. The new website is SecureStockton.com.
The site says the city will use the money to hire 120 more police, make Stockton's streets safer by implementing the city's Marshall Plan on Crime and cover an annual $11 million operating deficit.
The increase, if passed, would raise the city's sales tax rate to 9 percent from the current rate of 8.25 percent. It would raise an estimated $300 million in 10 years.
Without the money, Taxpayers for Measure A say that the city will have to make more cuts to libraries, parks, community centers and critical government services.
"It's time to restore public trust and ensure public safety," Butterfield said. "Measures A and B are critically important to Stockton's recovery."

Product Description
Fantastic and unique puzzle based on a 1911 design. The object is to get each of the 16 columns of numbers to add to 40 at the same time. Can you find the combination?
There is a base ring and then 4 rings that rotate on top. To complicate matters, the top sets of rings are all notched, so they will expose or hide some of the numbers on the ring below as the rings are turned. Makes for a lot of possible combinations! It essentially turns the 16 columns into 24 possible columns. Its quite a challenge.
Beautifully made in USA by Creative Crafthouse at their Spring Hill shop with highest quality alder rings and laser engraved numbers. Ergonomically sized to fit the palm nicely.
It will come unsolved in the package, included is a picture of the solved puzzle.

unless i am missing something, all you are doing is aligning the rings .. while i was not expecting it to open and give me a pile of gold, this is an entirely disappointing item
Terrible. False advertising. It doesn't actually "open" it's just a useless game that you spin around. Not impressed

You can do Vets, Tax, and Social Security advocacy now without a law license to one degree or another. Once you have the law license from California, even though you are in federal administrative practice, the Washington state bar may take a dim view of you opening an office and advertising as an attorney with only a California license. This is a very gray area if you intend to have a physical presence in Washington. Since you would be competing with Washington licensed lawyers in the same field, eventually you will be subject to to a UPL (unlicensed practice of law) referal to the state bar. So instead of being outside the box, you will be in the box unless you plan accordingly and do your due diligence to avoid such issues. But the issue arises all the time - one just needs to be aware how to avoid it.
Nope each and every federal court and agency (if applicable) has its own rules. The good news is that DL degree holders who pass the Cal Bar can join many of them on motion.
You obviously have not attended law school, common sense and law are mutually exclusive.

For this candid camera stunt on Spanish television, a disheveled little girl stood in a hotel corridor and waited for guests to walk by (and wig out).
The maid's reaction is priceless. She's like, "Oh bother, another spectral child. We have one of these haunting the dumbwaiter too."
