Ready to lose weight while promoting better health against diabetes, obesity, liver damage, and more?
"Finally — A Simple, Natural Way To Flush The Hidden Toxins Bloating Your Gut And Putting A Death Grip On Your Health!"
Keep reading to discover a simple, proven trick to cleanse your body from the inside out and melt away fat WITHOUT fad diets or complicated meal plans ever again!
Please tell me I've caught you in time...
Because right now, there's a very good chance your body is flooded with harmful toxins.
Toxins that not only damage your health...but:
Also play tug-of-war with your metabolism and make it impossible to rid your body of stubborn belly fat forever.
And That's Just The Beginning...
If these toxins and chemicals are not flushed from your body on a daily basis...
They back up, FAST:
Your intestines become blocked...
Inflammation bloats your gut and entire body...
And your risk of obesity, liver damage, diabetes, reproductive issues, even cancer...skyrockets.
Now, you're probably wondering:
"How Do I Know If My Body Is Overloaded With Toxins?"
Please, for the sake of your health, answer the question below HONESTLY:
Do any of these symptoms of toxic overload sound familiar?
Feeling tired and sluggish...
Joint pain and headaches...
Frequent gas, bloating, indigestion, or stomach cramps...
Seeming to easily catch colds...
Puffy eyes or dull skin...
Trouble sleeping or concentrating...
Constipation or other GI irregularities...
Skin problems (such as acne, eczema, psoriasis)...
Or even depression, mood swings, irritability, sinus congestion, and bad breath?
Yes, These Are Common. But Do NOT Mistake That For Meaning "Normal"...
If you recognize even a couple of the symptoms above...
There's good news and bad news:
The bad news is, there's a high chance your body is overloaded with toxins...
And you absolutely MUST do something now to flush them out...
The good news is, I'm going to show you exactly how to do it...
In the quickest, easiest, and safest way possible.
First, let me ask you another important question:
Ever Wonder Why There's So Much Obesity And Disease These Days?
Think about it:
Toxins are everywhere today, and...
A lot of companies—in all kinds of industries—put manufacturing procedures and profits before the health of their customers...
If a chemical, additive, or "enhancement" makes a product easier to make...
Makes it cheaper to produce...
Or improves the color, texture, flavor, scent, durability, and so on...
It's going to be used.
Which is why everything from our carpets and mattresses...
To our hair dryers, appliances, and computers...
Even our FOOD, shampoo, soaps, baby products, and more are laced with harmful toxins, chemicals, and preservatives...
Here's One Of Many Studies Which Proves This To Be True:
In 2003, the Mount Sinai School of Medicine tested blood and urine samples from all over the United States...
And what they found was incredible:
Out of every sample they received...
Every Single Person Had An Average Of 91 Industrial Chemicals In Their Bodies!
I won't bore you with every tongue-twister scientific name of these chemicals...
But a few you might recognize:
Like insecticides, PCBs, and dioxins...
Let Me Share One More Study And We'll Get To The GOOD News...
This one is really shocking:
In 2005, the American Red Cross took samples of fetal cord blood from 10 newborns...
In just this small batch of samples, they discovered...
287 Chemicals In Their Blood, And These Newborns Hadn't Even Been Outside Yet!
Now, this doesn't mean you have to pull a Travolta and live your life inside a plastic bubble...
Or walk around in a hazmat suit for the rest of your days...
It simply means, more than ever...
If You Want To Improve Your Health...You Must Get Rid Of These Toxins
Here's why:
One big way toxins cause weight gain?
They trigger the release of chemicals called "cytokines":
Cytokines damage Leptin receptors in the brain, and once this happens...
Weight Loss Resistance starts, and:
It's only the first of your problems...
If your brain cannot "hear" Leptin, every immune and hormone response in your body is altered...
In turn, you start to feel horrible...
You begin chasing symptoms on a never-ending, downward spiral...
Relying on medications that solve one problem but create 10 more...
Dealing with inflammation...
Watching pounds of fat pile back onto your body...
Increasing your risk of cancer, diabetes, depression, fatigue, among many other health concerns...
And ultimately wondering why you can never seem to feel 100% better, like you did when you were younger.
The Good News: You Can Rapidly Flush Toxins And Lose Weight—Naturally And Safely—Starting TODAY!
For over 7 years, our hundreds of thousands of customers have asked for it...

Look better...
And give you the jump-start you need to burn off your unwanted body fat — for good!

Information gained through years worth of testing and research among medical and science professionals...
And we challenged our team of formulators to find a way to bring them all together into one product, but in a way that's gentle on your body — and they delivered!
What they came up with was:
A Unique Blend Of 8 Supercharged Natural Ingredients, To Gently Cleanse And Detox Your Body!
Introducing: UltraCleanse
It does more to rid your body of toxins and accelerate fat loss than any other supplement we've seen.
And, believe me:
We've studied every cleanse product on the market while creating UltraCleanse...
All of them have one or two TRUE cleansing ingredients, BUT:
Pad those ingredients with unnecessary fillers and vitamins that do absolutely nothing to improve your results...
Sure, the label looks impressive...
But gimmicks and labels don't help you melt fat off your body, do they?

You Get 8 Proven Nutrients Formulated Into One Powerful Detox Solution:
Power Cleanser #1: Fennel Seed
Say goodbye to that bloating feeling you get after eating. Fennel seeds have been used for centuries in Indian cultures in order to improve the way your body digests food. In particular, if you like fatty foods (like fried foods) or even spicy meals – fennel seeds may reduce gas and bloating. They have also been shown to prevent constipation – which will help keep your intestines clean.
Power Cleanser #2: Cascara Sagrada
The dried bark of this popular shrub has been used as a gentle laxative for centuries. It works by stimulating a contraction-relaxation-contraction rhythm in the intestines, therefore leading to regularity.
This can also increase the strength of your intestines, which may prevent future constipation.
Power Cleanser #3: Pumpkin Seed
Pumpkin seeds are one of the best sources in the world for fiber (mostly insoluble fiber).
The can help get rid of bulky stool and that bloated belly. And as a bonus, pumpkin seeds contain plenty of gut-healthy nutrients, vitamins and minerals to maintain gut health.
Power Cleanser #4: Buckthorne Root
The buckthorne root is so powerful, it's often prescribed for people who have had hemorrhoids (or after surgery) to soften stool.
It has also been used to treat gallstones and even parasites like tapeworm and ecoli. Buckthorne works by stimulating the mobility in the large intestine, which is essential in detoxing and cleansing your body.
Power Cleanser #5: Licorice Root
This plant is native to Europe and has been used for centuries as a way to prevent constipation and improve other aspects of health.
Licorice root alleviates constipation by stimulating your digestive system to push feces into the lower intestines. This process – called peristalsis – helps to move waste from the gastric system to the intestines for removal.
Power Cleanser #6: Rhubarb
Rhubarb has been used for thousands of years in ancient Chinese medicine to treat constipation issues.
Rhubarb contains emodin and rhein, which stimulate bowel movements to remove all of the toxins and chemicals you are exposed to on a daily basis.
Power Cleanser #7: Goldenseal
This natural herb has been used for thousands of years by Native Americans. Goldenseal improves bile secretions which makes for a very happy and health liver and spleen.
It is also used to alleviate constipation and to treat infections of the bladder and intestines.]
Power Cleanser #8: Ginger
With all of the toxins and chemicals in our food and environment, we added
Ginger to UltraCleanse because it's main purpose is to act as an anti-nauseant.
The main reason why ginger works is because compounds found in ginger bind to pain receptors, therefore shutting your brain off to nauseating responses from the stomach.
It today's word.. you will love the calming effect of Ginger!

Rangers slugger Josh Hamilton says he has no plans to participate in the Home Run Derby if he makes his third consecutive All-Star game next month.
Bet 2010 World Series Odds
In his only Home Run Derby two years ago at old Yankee Stadium, Hamilton put on an awe-inspiring display with a record 28 homers in the first round. Hamilton was an All-Star starter again last year, but passed on the derby after coming back from two stints on the disabled list.
Hamilton went into Texas' game Tuesday night against Pittsburgh with a career-best 16-game hitting streak. He was batting .337 with 16 homers and 52 RBIs this season.
In the AL All-Star fan voting totals released this week, Hamilton moved up to third among outfielders, passing teammate Nelson Cruz.
Oddsmakers from online sports book Sports Interaction currently list the Rangers' odds to win the 2010 World Series at 15/1.

Until recently search marketing was the channel that many companies thought they had "all figured out". As the online marketing industry evolves many are finding it difficult to move into the next phase, which includes cross-channel optimization.
I recently attended a presentation from Steven Yap, Head of Emerging Products and Markets at Google where he covered that very topic. Figuring out how search can help produce wins that really matter, and determining what role search marketing plays in a broader marketing campaign leaves many marketers stumped. In this article I've included some helpful tips from Yap as well as some best practices for cross-channel optimization.

Is it just me or has this thread become an INTERVENTION? Usually
Isobars hijacks every thread
to make it about him

I have not seen this video, and even had I done so, would never make fun of a fellow windsurfers style of sailing. Video shooters, like newspaper reporters, are not averse to 'pushing' their own interpretation of what is going on! (Think early days when 'girlie television reporters shot it all as 'little boys playing silly games' sort of thing, and always falling off.)
But there is more on this thread alone than just the video issue. For example, Mike states. 'Anyone who HATES me has such a vastly different VALUE system...' followed in a later reply by, 'I deeply apologise for having MORALS.'
The clear meaning can only be that Mike has a moral value system, and the rest of (90% of the forum by most estimates) do not!
Firstly, Mike, your original statement is, if I read things correctly, wrong. The majority on this forum do not HATE you, they RESENT you! The above two statements would be adequate reason to explain why, though there are endless other examples in many other threads.
You tend to give the impression of being a superior being, who will not be contradicted, in any way at all. (Whether you actually ARE right or wrong is secondary to this perception. THAT is why, in my assessment at least, why you are so resented, by so many.
I am NOT trying to give offence, and I really don't want to see that video. I accept you as a fellow enthusiast who loves windsurfing. THAT, is sufficient, despite the fact that I too resent your internet manner. (RESENTMENT, not HATRED!)

That is one flagrantly dumb, obviously and egregiously false, biased and misleading post. Notice that before I even posted a word, several people like you just had to turn it from a humorous (?) sailing video into yet another lying Isobash by posting baseless personal attacks. Lets replay the
hijacking via the archives dash cam:
swchandler, being his usual self, wrote:
I can understand how a bent isobars might be considered a loose cannon just waiting to go off. Predictably, it didn't take isobars too long to throw the rag over things
[I hadnt even seen the thread yet!]
, given a fear of being revealed for what he is. Also, isobars has a penchant for censorship
[only moderators can censor]
, so there's no real surprise there.
westender then tried to douse the flames when he accurately wrote:
If you're going to put yourself out there, better be ready for the ball busting.
and Nick and rlemmens tried three times to tone it down further,
but wooot just had to escalate the attack so he wrote:
Isobars has ripped me, among many others, for no apparent reason on these forums
I then gave wooot a chance to abandon his hijacking when I wrote:
Marty, that's a proven lie, yet you've stated it 2 or 3 times now to varying degrees without being able to back it up. Do you really want to look like the gang bangers here?
wooots henchman Chandler could have checked the archives for the facts, but noooooo, he falsely wrote:
As I vaguely recollect, wooot was "ripped" by isobars in the past".
Notice that these two are the only ones trying their damnedest to hijack the sailing video into another scheistfest. Finally, three pages and 28 posts into the thread, I responded factually, logically, rationally, and point by point to Martys barrage. Brian Kiggins and a couple of others kept trying, with only limited success, to resist my and others attempts to return the discussion to windsurfing.
On what planet did *I* hijack the thread ABOUT ME?
And what does your ludicrous accusation say about you?

As someone newer to this forum, but not new to internet discussion boards, I was trying to point out a painfully obvious point.
Sometimes, the obvious falls on deaf ears (or eyes in the case you read this), and it's a lost cause. Sometimes not.
I mostly lurk, and occasionally will throw the [sarcasm]"lighten up Francis"[/sarcasm] post out there.
Iso, I have no beef with you or anyone else, however, some of the observations made are spot on... this coming from someone who's been here for just a few weeks. Take it with a grain of salt, choose to stay the course, or maybe step back and attempt to change perception. You choose.
I'll leave you with this: TMTOWTD - "There is more than one way to do it." Accepting that will lead to much more happiness.
Sail well, sail long and enjoy the ride.

Believe me, Brian, I ignored the attacks by the hundreds for years in the hope they would fade, and still ignore most of them. It doesn't work, so I reserve the right to respond when and as I wish. At least your butthurt form was funny (and appropriate).

And now it's my fault for turning this thread into what it is. How convenient, but I really don't think anybody buys that for a second. isobars, be honest and look within yourself to see the problem for what it is. You know, thombiz was only highlighting what is a frequent occurrence here. No reason to get ugly with him.

Mr. Fick is as pure as the driven snow. He always corrects his mistakes when pointed out.*** Just like this tidbit from rec dot windsurfing (name changed to protect the subject of Fick's claim):

with disbarment in July, 2002. IMO this impugns his credibility across the
Didn't like my ficticious assault on your credibility, didja, Hubert? Well,
credibility was and is my stock in trade, too, to the point it saved the
fundamental Star Wars laser research program from cancellation, and I resent
previously credible people falsely impugning it. SNIP
Thus, with a loud PLONK, you join the others who keep accusing me without
substantiation of lying (including euphemisms). Windsurfing and talking
about windsurfing are too important to me to let a bunch of vitriolic
gamesmen ruin it for me. I have no respect for or interest in people who
stoop to word games and ad hominem because they can't or won't debate like
adults. Just as people are welcome to killfile me because I enjoy rational
debate or because they don't agree with me that we should defend our nation
and some parts of the world against credible vows to decimate them, I choose
to killfile the flame-mongers I feel spoil the spirit of this newsgroup.
Anyone who wants to QUESTION my statements will be treated with respect.
Those who continue to call me a liar (euphemisms included) without
supporting it will get the level of respect they deserve, to a degree
depending on whether I stepped in dog crap vs foot straps that day. Those
who employ or tolerate the latter behavior promote its presence here.

I'll do you one better, Mike. In fact, I am a rogue financial trader who
stole $200 million dollars and fled to Europe. You can read all about me
in SNIP
Unfortunately the author neglected to mention my spectacular double
forward loop in the final heat of the 1999 Fuerteventura freestyle
worlds. But what can you expect, windsurfing just doesn't get any media
attention these days.
(Just in case anyone is confused, all of the above is false, I am
actually a software engineer in Silicon Valley, and I wish I could land
a single forward.)
Good Winds,
***Of course, Mike made no public apology for accusing "Hubert" of a crime and professional misconduct. Perhaps he would care to do so, now?

1. Mike states. "Anyone who HATES me ... has such a vastly different VALUE system..." followed in a later reply by, I deeply apologize for having MORALS The clear meaning can only be that Mike has a moral value system, and the rest of (90% of the forum by most estimates) do not!
2. The majority on this forum do not HATE you, they RESENT you!
3. The above two statements would be adequate reason to explain why, though there are endless other examples in many other threads.
4. You tend to give the impression of being a superior being,
5. who will not be contradicted
1. In the worlds I've lived, worked, and played in outside these forums -- from our Constitution to our libel laws to our daily lives -- baseless personal attacks are immoral and/or illegal. I absolutely cannot comprehend how anyone with even a hint of morality can silently accept, let alone promote, or ESPECIALLY participate in WSing forums rampant baseless personal attacks just because I express relevant facts and opinions they dont like. (We actually have laws over here, let alone mores, protecting one's right to express those.)
2. Marty, not I, chose the "hate" word. Besides, anyone who resents or hates being accurately labeled a liberal, a conservative, immoral, amoral, a Marxist, a socialist, a bible-thumper, a radical on either end of the spectrum, axe murderer, etc.
should stop behaving as one
. Its our behavior, not the label, that defines us; a label, if accurate, is just valid shorthand.
3. If youre trying to help rather than denigrate, as I believe you are in this post, youll have to provide some of those examples. Ive already explained that Do your own homework for example, means I have neither the time or will to type the books or 40 pages of references out for you. Heres the source; look it up just as I had to and stop demanding that I do it for you.
3. To reiterate, in case you think I misspoke: Anyone who resents -- or
who tries to suppress or undermine via baseless personal attacks -- anyone's honest, relevant, supportable opinions and the facts behind them is not someone whose opinion matters to me.
4. How in hell can I control others' impressions, especially when so many of them paint some of those who disagree with them as a lying racist birther denier heartless greedy evil poor-hating cartoon character?
5. So it's OK for others to express their opinions or facts, but I can't? Why does no one "resent" the people who agree with me (on, for example, AGW alarmism, cammed sails, slotted fins, jibe techniques, allowing for multiple techniques such as BFF
FFF, politics, roller harness bars, board size and style, ad nauseum)? Anyone is welcome to confront my opinions or facts head-on any time they like; its the continual irrelevant broadside against the messenger thats so despicable and, yes, immoral. I worked for three colonels who felt the same way most of this group does: STFU if you disagree with me. All three were fired from the Air Force and one was stripped of his pension, due in part to the fallout of that paradigm. And there are more than one way to windsurf.

Stefano Leporati's 'Kismet' Is Overall Leader In The 2008 Melges 32 Audi Sailing Series After Three Events
©2008 Carlo Borlenghi | B.Plan Related topics:
16 July 2008
It is a tight, three-way battle for the overall lead of the 2008 Melges 32 Audi Sailing Series. Stefano Leporati, alongside of his brother Massimo on Kismet is in first place after three events. One point behind is Claudio Recchi aboard Uka Uka Racing in second overall. In third, one point behind Recchi is Luigi Melegari on Matrix. Melegari led the series for two events, however a devastating eighth place finish at Cala De'Medici rocked the scoreboard.

Surprises in local state Senate races?
A couple of interesting things about two local state Senate races in the Siena poll out today:
Roy McDonald
Here's how respondents said they'd be voting in the state Senate 43rd election:
Kathy Marchione (R): 40%
Roy McDonald (I): 29%
Robin Andrews (D): 25%
Yep, Roy McDonald -- who stopped campaigning after narrowly losing the Republican primary -- polled ahead of the Democrat in the race, Robin Andrews. Two questions that occurred to us because of this result:
+ Could Roy McDonald have won the general election if he kept going?
+ And/or, is McDonald's relatively strong showing in the poll just an artifact of incumbency? Of all the candidates in the field, he's the one most likely to be known by voters. And 67% of respondents in the Siena poll said they didn't know about/didn't have an opinion of Robin Andrews.

Welcome to round 5 of the weekly Dungeon of the Day challenge. This week we have two dungeons and finally the inclusion of monster classes.
Any players are welcome to participate, regardless of whether you're a veteran or beginner. Even if you're new to Desktop Dungeons and can only manage one or two medals, feel free to post your experiences here. The rules are as follows:
This week's challenge begins Wednesday, December 26, at 8 a.m. PST (UTC-8). In order to have a vicious challenge but still allow players with less experience or less-developed kingdoms to play, this challenge will feature two dungeons, one hard and one vicious. Players may submit entries for both dungeons, and there will be a separate winner for each dungeon. Although veterans are encouraged to participate in the vicious challenge, everyone is welcome to submit entries for either or both dungeons.
In lieu of dice, I will be taking random numbers from random.org. First, for the hard dungeon, a number between 1 and 5:
Grimm's Grotto (1), Doubledoom (2), Creeplight Ruins (3), Ick Swamp (4), Labyrinth (5)
Second, for the vicious dungeon, another number between 1 and 5:
Naga City (1), Dragon Isles (2), Demonic Library (3), Vicious Halls of Steel (4), Namtar's Lair (5)
I will pick three random numbers for classes. The first two will be normal classes (random 1-8):
Fighter (1), Warlord (2), Thief (3), Monk (4), Paladin (5), Sorcerer (6), Bloodmage (7), Tinker (8)
The third will be a monster class (random 1-3):
Vampire (1), Gorgon (2), Half-Dragon (3)
Scoring is based on total points: your medals and your class are each worth a certain number of points, and your score is the total point value of all your medals and your class bonus, if any. The point values are roughly proportioned to the difficulty of getting each badge and the varying ability of each class to obtain badges (although they are a work in progress and may be subject to change in future challenges). These are the point values for this week's challenge:
Warmonger & Purist = 5 points each
Faithless & Hoarder = 4 points each
Unstoppable & Feeling Parched = 3 points each
Ding! Max & Miser = 2 points each
Specialist & Cheeky = 1 point each
+0 classes: Rogue, Berserker, Assassin
+1 classes: Warlord, Monk
+2 classes: Bloodmage, Paladin
+3 classes: Sorcerer, Fighter, Vampire, Tinker, Transmuter
+4 classes: Priest, Gorgon, Half-Dragon, Crusader, Thief, Wizard
Tie scores will be resolved by how long it took you to beat the dungeon, with the faster time winning.
The contest ends on Thursday, January 3, at 5 p.m. PST, and the highest-scoring player for each dungeon at the time will be declared the winner(s). Players may submit as many entries as they like, but only your highest-scoring entry for each dungeon will be counted.
(Notes: Assassin is excluded because his first strike is still bugged. I added a point to the Gorgon's handicap due to the new poison mechanic, and removed a point from Wizard due to his buff. Purist is increased in value by 1 and Miser decreased by 1, per discussion in the main thread & personal bias. No rights reserved. Offer void where prohibited. Horatio is watching you.)

Morrison's Bluff, Ark.
J.D. Adcock died on March 4, 1895. Bro. Adcock died with triumphant faith, and spoke frequently to the effect that his long cherished hope would soon develop into a beautiful reality. He said "religion has always been safe to live by, now I know it is good to die by." Blessed truth. He was a deacon in Bethel Baptist church. The writer, as his pastor for many years, has been sustained by his prayers, sympathy, counsel and financial support as he has enjoyed such from few others. The loss to the community, the Masonic fraternity, the church and the family is almost irreparable, but his gain exceeds our loss. God comfort and save the bereaved ones.

SPCA successfully rescues kitten from 12th floor ledge
SPCA successfully rescues kitten from 12th floor ledge
A kitten had the luckiest day of its life thanks, to the efforts of SPCA Singapore.
After spotting the kitten on the 12th-floor ledge of a Housing & Development Board apartment building, a resident with a keen eye contacted SPCA Singapore.
The rescue team used a catch pole to secure the feline while others waited on the ground holding a blanket in case it fell.
The video was shared on SPCA Singapore's Facebook page for World Animal Day, on Sunday. Since it was posted, it has been viewed 85,000 times

Choosing a contract lifecycle management (CLM) solution for small and midsize businesses (SMBs) can be a challenge, especially when there are so many options available on the market. It's important to understand in detail all the features, deployment models and market trends before finalizing your software purchase decision. For that reason, we've created this buyer's guide to help you choose the right CLM solution for your organization.
Here's what we'll cover:
What Is Contract Lifecycle Management Software?
Common Features of Contract Lifecycle Management Software
Evaluating Contract Lifecycle Management Software
Deployment Models and Pricing
Market Trends to Understand
Contract management lifecycle software organizes the complex and detailed contractual negotiation process between buyers and suppliers. These solutions typically manage the entire lifecycle of a contract, from initial request for proposal (RFP) to eventual renegotiations. Gaining full control of the contractual process allows users to not only reduce supplier risk, but also to gain increased insight into contracts—creating strategic negotiation opportunities and improved cash flow.
CLM software solutions have proven to be a must-have tool for managing efficient workflows. These solutions help streamline processes for sales, procurement, legal, operations and finance professionals. With more organized workflows, managers can focus on key performance areas and reduce the need for constant follow-ups. These systems also give users the capability to create personalized contracts with their clients.
These software systems range from applications that exclusively manage vendor contracts to robust suites that also include sourcing, bidding and procurement functionality. Many of these solutions also integrate with other supply chain, accounting and enterprise resourcing planning (ERP) systems.
By automating and simplifying contract acquisition and maintenance, users can ensure consistent contractual language, regularly maintained buy-cycles and sound financial planning. Users can also take advantage of notification systems that help identify opportunities to improve contract alignment. The result is a smoother acquisition process, higher supplier retention and reduced contractual risk that can lead to better cash management practices.
Specific features of CLM solutions include the following:
|Compliance assurance
|Automation assures users that contractual negotiations meet compliance regulations. Additional company and industry-specific compliance protocols can be added as necessary.
|Contract creation and automation
|These systems often include new contract templates that can easily be exported to Microsoft Word or other document creation programs. Additionally, future contracts can be automatically sent through the user's predefined workflow.
|Approval management
|The approval process goes through many hands. These solutions enable the next-in-line to receive automated notifications that the contract is ready for their approval—speeding up the process greatly.
|Notifications and alerts
|These systems allow users to construct both broad and long-tail notification parameters for renewal dates, expiration dates and other renegotiation opportunities. Alerts can be delivered within the system or sent directly to a user's email address.
|Ad hoc reporting
|Reporting features allow users to find additional opportunities to improve contractual terms. Reports can be generated based on search queries or specific contracts.
|Accounting and ERP integration
|Oftentimes, these systems integrate directly with accounting and ERP solutions to maintain accurate cash flow data, as well as aid in financial forecasting.
Analyst firms have consistently found that streamlined CLM is a best practice for companies looking to reduce supplier risk. Regulation of the contract lifecycle allows users to gain increased visibility and reduce this risk, as well as discover contract improvement opportunities.
When evaluating CLM systems, these questions can help determine if the solution fits your needs:
CLM software is generally available in two separate deployment models, which tend to have different pricing structures:
Cloud-based. Cloud-based CLM software is hosted on the vendor's servers and is typically priced as a SaaS model, meaning that users pay a monthly or annual subscription fee that is usually based on the number of users.
On-premise. On-premise CLM software is hosted on the user's own servers. This type of deployment usually costs a flat, upfront fee to use the software indefinitely, though there may be recurring support and maintenance fees on an yearly basis. The upfront fee is also typically based on the number of users on the system, as this type of software is sold in the form of licenses per person.
The CLM software market is gradually evolving as business executives realize the benefits of implementing a CLM solution. Buyers are looking for a solution that both fits their budget and meets the needs of their small business. Here are the primary trends influencing the CLM software market:
Digitization of paper contracts. Organizations are moving on from paper to digitized documents for faster processing of contracts. Also, digitized documentation help in reducing overhead paper and printing costs. E-signature functionality enables executives to swiftly approve documents while fulfilling all compliance requirements. Advanced CLM software helps users monitor contracts in real time and sends alerts for pending documents with upcoming deadlines.
Increased adoption of cloud-based software. Cloud-based software provides agility to businesses by reducing the upfront investment of licensing fees. This model suits the requirements of small businesses, as it incurs only operational expenditures. Furthermore, online platforms require minimal hardware infrastructure and could be more secure than on-premise solutions for small businesses operating on a limited budget.
Our service is simple and 100% free to customers like you because software vendors pay us when we connect them with quality leads. You save time and get great advice. Vendors get great referrals. It's a win for everyone!

Strip is the best. Since it's the original. Both downtown locations are good. Never ate at the Oakland one.

Hilton Head has enough toursim from Western PA/Ohio to justify a Primanti's. Charlotte has enough transplants too seeing as how I see more Steelers stuff than panthers stuff on my daily commute.

University of Phoenix Stadium - 4:15 PM EST
As much as the media would like to turn this into a Steelers vs. Coach Whisenhunt or or a Big Ben vs. Coach Whisenhunt, I would like to think of it as a Steelers Defense vs. Coach Whisenhunt's Offense! This Steeler D always seemed to get the best of the first team offense when Whisenhunt was the offensive coordinator for the Steelers. Now the defense finally gets to go all out with no special jersey on the QB or holding back on that devastating hit on the receiver dragging across the middle. It's on this time!!!!
The Cardinals come into the game as an average team, they don't really do anything great but on the same token they don't do anything bad. When it comes to their rankings they are in the middle of the pack, which probably accounts for them being in every one of their games thus far. The Cardinals have put up a total of 63 points while giving up only 66 in their first the games. This team could easily be 3-0 but late in the game in their two losses their D collapsed. Actually, let me rephrase that... their last game against the Ravens was all but over until Leinart was yanked for AARP veteran Kurt Warner came in and brought the Cards back to make it respectable and actually give them a chance, so had they continued with Leinart I highly doubt they would have been in their last game.
This brings up an interesting point though, how is Leinart going to respond to being yanked last week? Is his confidence shot all to hell now and will he be able to do anything against the blitzing Steeler D? After all, this Steeler D is definitely know Pac-10 defense! Will the changing of the QB's have impact on the Steelers preparations for this game? I would like to think not...
The Steelers come into this game averaging almost 200 rushing yards per game, and can boast about having the number one rusher in the league with Willie Parker! Parker is currently tracking at 400 carries this year for 2000 yards which would shatter all the Steelers rushing records. Not to jinx him in anyway, FWP actually struggled rushing the ball on the road last year. Thankfully he had a breakout road rushing game against the Browns late in the season which skewed his numbers but up to that point in the season he was averaging barely 60 yards per game on the road. Willie is going to be the key to the Steelers offense, as Willie goes so does the offense!
Let's not forget about Big Ben! He's looked sharp this year, from a statistical point of view especially with a 102 QB rating, but when Ben is given time in the pocket he seems rushed and not relaxed. He's been making most of his big plays when he gets rushed out of the pocket and has to avoid a couple of would be sackers! If the o-line was to ever make a statement and show what they are really about this game against the Cardinals is that game! Ben will be without his star receiver Hines Ward
Here is something that is we kind of expect from the Steelers defense... they are ranked number 2 in the league and have earned that ranking in a respectable fashion by completely dismantling their opponents. The Cardinals passing attack will be the first true test for the Steelers but with the recent report from Cardinals camp their air attack isn't looking so great anymore with Boldin more than likely not playing this weekend. Regardless though, the Cardinals still have quality receivers with 2 quality QB's no matter who plays so it should be interesting.
Interesting Facts
- Edge is the last running back to gain 100 yards on the Steelers D (November 2005, Monday Night)
- Steelers all-time record against the Cardinals since moving to Arizona is 2-2 (2-3 including pre-season games)
- The last regular season game between the Steelers Cards in Arizona was 11/30/1997 which resulted in Steelers OT win
- Last Meeting 11/9/2003 at Heinz Field, Steelers won 28-15
Join us this Sunday... here in the gameday thread as we talk about the game and cheer our Steelers to a victory!!!!

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. - Regional lacrosse power, Springfield College, escaped Cambridge on Saturday with a 12-9 victory over MIT, despite a furious comeback by the Engineers. With the win, Springfield moves to 2-1 on the season, while the loss levels Tech's season ledger at 1-1. Saturday's tilt marked the conference opener for both schools.
The Pride exploded off the start, scoring six times in the first ten minutes to take a 6-2 lead. Although Deanna Lentz, Laura Watson and Kelsey Presson all scored in the frame, Tech's scoring contingent couldn't keep pace with Springfield's daunting attack.
Trailing 8-4 to start the second half, the Engineers shifted momentum behind Presson's offensive prowess and a solid effort in goal. Presson scored twice in the opening moments of the period to close Springfield's advantage to two, while Jasmin Moghbeli sparkled in the cage. Despite making her career debut in goal, Moghbeli made 19 saves and kept the Engineers within striking distance all afternoon.
Although the Pride scored two goals of their own to once again extend the lead, Lentz and Watson answered for MIT. Watson's finish at 45:41 narrowed Springfield's edge to 10-9 and set the stage for an exciting finish. Just two minutes later, the Pride's Heidi Eidse closed the door on Tech's comeback bid with a free position goal. Springfield added another tally in the final minutes to complete its seventh straight win over the Engineers, although Saturday's effort was MIT's second-best ever against the Pride.
Kelsey Presson led all MIT scorers with four goals, while Lentz and Watson each added a pair.

CHICAGO -- Survival in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has improved significantly, in part, because of better outcomes with primary radiation therapy, according to a study reported here.
Median survival of patients with stage I NSCLC increased from 44 months during the period from 1999 to 2003 to 56 months from 2004 to 2008. Survival among patients treated with radiation therapy increased from 16 to 21 months, whereas median survival in surgically treated patients had yet to be reached.
The analysis also showed that a substantial proportion of patients with stage I NSCLC receive neither surgery nor radiation therapy, Nirav Kapadia, MD, reported at the Chicago Multidisciplinary Symposium in Thoracic Oncology.
"Survival improved for all patients with stage I lung cancer, improved for almost all treatment groups, and improved the most for patients treated with radiation alone," Kapadia, of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, said during a press briefing. "The use of radiation for stage I lung cancer patients slightly decreased during the later period compared with the earlier period.
"The number of patients who did not receive a potentially curative therapy decreased, but one in six patients still did not get a curative surgery or radiation between 2004 and 2008. We think it will be very important in the coming years to find the reasons for impaired access."
For patients with stage I NSCLC, surgery remains the primary treatment. For high-risk patients and those too ill for surgery, radiation therapy has offered a noninvasive alternative that offers the potential for cure.
Recent advances in radiation therapy technology and techniques have permitted delivery of higher doses of radiation to the tumor and reduced doses to surrounding health tissue. The impact of these newer methods on survival in stage I NSCLC had not been examined in a large patient population.
Kapadia and colleagues searched the NCI Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database for patients with newly diagnosed stage I NSCLC treated during the 1999 to 2008 period. Their objectives were to examine treatment practices over time and to determine whether advances in radiation therapy had translated into improved survival.
The search identified 27,469 patients with stage I NSCLC diagnosed during 1999 to 2003 and 26,195 patients whose diagnoses and treatment occurred from 2004 to 2008. During the early part of the study period, surgery was the primary treatment in 64% of patients and radiation therapy in 14%; 20% of patients received neither treatment.
In the 2004 to 2008 period, 70% of patients had primary surgery, 13% had primary radiation therapy, and 16% had neither.
Use of radiation as primary therapy or as an adjunct to surgery did not increase significantly over the entire study period.
The 12-month improvement in median survival over the study period represented a statistically significant 27% relative increase (P<0.0001).
In the subgroup of patients treated by primary radiation therapy, the 5-month improvement in median survival represented a 31% increase (P<0.0001).
Factors that significantly increased mortality risk irrespective of treatment modality were older age (HR 1.03), African-American race (HR 1.05), large-cell histology (HR 1.29), squamous-cell histology (HR 1.27), and being unmarried (HR 1.17).
Two factors were associated with a lower mortality risk: female sex (HR 0.72) and race reported as "other" (HR 0.82).
In response to a question, Kapadia acknowledged that older and sicker patients might have accounted for much of the subgroup that received neither surgery nor radiation therapy. However, the analysis did not include the data necessary to examine potential factors involved in the lack of primary treatment.
Kapadia and his co-investigators had no relevant disclosures.

Drought in Kenya: Current Crisis Calls for Long-term Solutions
25 Aug 2011
Only minutes after our take-off from Nairobi's Wilson Airport, the landscape below us starts changing from lush green to arid brown and yellow, seemingly devoid of life. We are heading to the dry rural regions of Wajir and Turkana in northern Kenya.
With me on board are the World Food Programme Executive Director Josette Sheeran and the Food and Agriculture Organization Director-General Jacques Diouf. We set out to hear directly from those most affected by the unfortunate drought and famine unfolding in the region.
Kenya has been hit especially hard by the crisis, with a food-insecure population of more than 3.5 million due to the drought. One farmer reports that in his village, close to the three-way border shared with Ethiopia and Somalia, it has not rained for almost two years and that there have been no harvests at all since 2009.
Most families and communities in Wajir rely on goats and cattle for their survival, but with the severity and duration of the crisis, their livelihoods are now threatened. The people we meet during our tour are tough, and so is their livestock. But we can tell they have reached the limit of what they can take.
Sadly, this crisis is nowhere near to being over. In fact it is intensifying. It is the worst food security crisis in Africa in 20 years.
With the frequency of droughts increasing, it is becoming difficult for people to recover. Experts argue, however, that while dry spells are cyclical, the humanitarian catastrophes they are causing are avoidable.
Investing in drought-resistant farming, improved livestock management, and more efficient water management can help make sure that people are better prepared to cope the next time a crisis like this occurs.
UN agencies are working to scale up these types of initiatives in drought-hit areas, particularly among communities close to the camps hosting increasing numbers of Somali refugees.
We need the support and long-term commitment of the international community to lay a foundation for resilience. We have no time to lose.
Aeneas C. Chuma is the UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Kenya
Talk to us: How can we help countries like Kenya become more resilient in the face of droughts?

IntroductionThe goal of this article is to get Facebook integration up & running from your Android app in 30 minutes. The guide will show you how to
- setup a Faceook test account.
- register a Facebook application.
- authenticate the user in your Android application.
- have the user update his Facebook wall from your Android application.
This guide is accompanied by a sample application that's available in Github in the AndroidFacebookSample repository. To import this project in Eclipse, I suggest using the EGit plugin that can be installed via the Main P2 Repository located at http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates.
Before running this project, make sure you change the com.ecs.android.facebook.Sample.AndroidFacebookSample file to include your Facebook API key (see subsequent section). Once you have sample application up & running, you can copy the relevant classes into your projects to have Facebook up & running from your Android application.
First things first … In order to integrate with Facebook, you need 2 things:
- A Facebook test account, used in our Android application to login to Facebook and make status updates.
- A Facebook application, used to inform the user in your Android application that this application is requesting you to login to Facebook.
Facebook Test AccountWe'll start by creating a test account that we'll use in our Android application. Signup for a new user account at Facebook. If you already have an account, sign up for a new account using your existing name but specify a different email address. Once the account has been created, we'll convert it into a Facebook test account.
Note: The following step should not be done on your real facebook account. Converting an existing Facebook account into a test account is irreversible, so please ensure that you do the following step with your newly created "dummy" account.
When logged into Facebook, goto the Facebook Become Test Account page to convert your newly created account into a Facebook test account. Again, do not execute these steps on your "real" user account.
After confirming that you want to convert your account into a test account, you should see the following message:
Facebook ApplicationNext step is to create a Facebook application. Integration with facebook is based on OAuth 2.0 and requires your to register a Facebook application. Visit the Facebook Developers Authentication page for more information on its OAuth 2.0 implementation.
The Facebook application that we'll create will have it's own Application ID that we'll use in our Android application.
Creating an application cannot be done on the Facebook test account, so you'll need to have a proper Facebook account in order to create the application. Using your "real" Facebook account, goto the Facebook Create Application page and create your application.
Give it a name, and complete the registration. You should land on a page like this:
So far so good, everything is setup on the Facebook front, now it's time to start coding our Android application.
On the Android front, we'll use the Facebook Android SDK located at Github: https://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk.
The Facebook Android SDK is licensed under the Apache License and is completely open source.
The project contains several samples in the examples folder, but the core SDK is located in the facebook folder. The sample application included in the facebook sdk repository provides the user the ability to post a message on the wall using a custom dialog, allowing the user to enter some text. The goal of the sample application that we'll be creating here is to send an automated message to the wall, without any human interaction. Our application will generate a piece of text and post it on the wall without showing a dialog to the user. The user simply presses a button, and the generated message will appear on his/her wall.
But to get started, we'll begin by importing the facebook project (containing the actual facebook sdk) into Eclipse. Once this is done, you should have the following Eclipse Project in your workspace:
As this is the library project that our sample application will use to do the actual Facebook integration, we'll need to create a reference in our own project to this Facebook Android SDK project. This is done by going to our project properties, select Android on the left, go to the library section and click Add.
On the following screen, you can select the Facebook Android SDK library project
When selected, it will be made available to your own project.
As you can see in the Eclipse Package explorer, our sample project now also contains a reference to the Facebook Android SDK project
The Facebook SDK project revolves around a central com.facebook.android.Facebook.Facebook class, allowing you to perform various calls to Facebook. It provides basic login/logoff functionality (by leveraging single sign on capabilities if you have the official facebook app installed), handles the OAuth integration, and provides you with a generic API to perform requests to the various Facebook APIs.
In our own sample application, we'll encapsulate all the Facebook interactions in a FacebookConnector object. The object is constructed like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
public FacebookConnector(String appId,Activity activity,Context context,String[] permissions) { this.facebook = new Facebook(appId); SessionStore.restore(facebook, context); SessionEvents.addAuthListener(mSessionListener); SessionEvents.addLogoutListener(mSessionListener); this.context=context; this.permissions=permissions; this.mHandler = new Handler(); this.activity=activity; }
As you can, under the hook, our FacebookConnector class uses the Facebook class provided by the Facebook SDK project.
Our FacebookConnector will provide a more coarse-grained API than the Facebook class. The Facebook class is designed in a very generic way, allowing you to do a lot of different calls to Facebook. This design results in a fairly fine-grained API, where some knowledge is expected from the application using this API. For example, you'll need to know the specific endpoints for post a message on a wall, or to retrieve a user profile. In addition to that, you'll also need to know what parameters you need to send for each request.
Our FacebookConnector exposes a coarse-grained method called postMessageOnWall that's the main logic behind our Post button. The only thing we need to provide is the actual message we want to post. The FacebookConnector will do the necessary plumbing towards the more generic Facebook class.
The postMessageOnWall method checks if we have a valid Facebook session (meaning we have authenticated properly against Facebook). If this is the case, it setups up the necessary parameters, and does a call through the Facebook class to post a message on the wall. (using the me/feed endpoint)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
public void postMessageOnWall(String msg) { if (facebook.isSessionValid()) { Bundle parameters = new Bundle(); parameters.putString("message", msg); try { String response = facebook.request("me/feed", parameters,"POST"); System.out.println(response); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } else { login(); } }
But we'll start by explaining what happens if the user doesn't have a valid Facebook session.
If the user hasn't authenticated to Facebook yet we need to perform a login. The login() is defined like this:
1 2 3 4 5
public void login() { if (!facebook.isSessionValid()) { facebook.authorize(this.activity, this.permissions,Facebook.FORCE_DIALOG_AUTH,new LoginDialogListener()); } }
The login method is implemented in such a way that when we don't have a logged in user, we call the facebook.authorize to start the Facebook OAuth flow. Although the Facebook SDK has a single-sign-on option, allowing you to leverage your existing facebook session you may have with the official Facebook Android application, we'll add the Facebook.FORCE_DIALOG_AUTH parameter to have the Facebook SDK pop the login dialog.
The first thing that will happen when executing this method, is that the Facebook login dialog will be shown. Notice how the login dialog mentions the Facebook app we created earlier. By passing on our Application ID to the Facebook object, the user is now informed that the TestAndroidIntegration application is initiating the Facebook login. The user can decide at this point if he wants to login to his Facebook account.
When the user does a login, he'll be presented with yet another dialog. Keep in mind that at this point, although the user is logged in, he didn't give any permissions yet for this application to post messages on his wall. This particular dialog will now request the user for certain permission.
It basically allows the user to authorize the TestAndroidIntegration application to access basic information and Post to my Wall. Accessing basic information is the default permission that is given when a user logs in this way. Here, an additional permission is requested (Post to my Wall).
In order to post something on the wall, the publish_stream permission is required, hence we pass this on to our FacebookConnector:
Note: ensure that you provide a proper Facebook APPID here.
When the user allows this request for permission (authorization), the Facebook API can begin executing requests on behalf of the user (like posting something on his wall).
Posting a message on the Facebook wallIn order to post a message on the wall, we basically construct a message (Bundle) that we pass on to the facebook request method. We use the "me/feed" ID on the Facebook Graph API to indicate that we'll be posting something to the Profile feed (Wall in Facebook terminlogy).
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
private FacebookConnector facebookConnector; private void postMessageInThread() { Thread t = new Thread() { public void run() { try { facebookConnector.postMessageOnWall(getFacebookMsg()); mFacebookHandler.post(mUpdateFacebookNotification); } catch (Exception ex) { Log.e(TAG, "Error sending msg",ex); } } }; t.start(); }
The postMethodOnWall() method is called from our main Activity in a background thread. Although we don't want to interrupt the main UI thread while posting the message (hence the background thread), we do want to send a notification to the user that his message was posted. We use a handler for this in order to show a Toast message on the main UI thread once the background processing has been done.
An importing thing to note is that when the user clicks the Post Message button, besides logging just logging in, we also want to send the message to the Facebook wall. Performing the login, immediately followed by an action (in this case sending a message) can be done by adding a AuthenticationListener (SessionEvents.AuthListener) to the SessionEvents.
The following code (wrapper method) illustrates this :
- in case of logged in user simply post the message in the background thread.
- in case of an anonymous user, we wait for the authentication to succeed, and then continue on to posting the message in the background thread.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
public void postMessage() { if (facebookConnector.getFacebook().isSessionValid()) { postMessageInThread(); } else { SessionEvents.AuthListener listener = new SessionEvents.AuthListener() { @Override public void onAuthSucceed() { postMessageInThread(); } @Override public void onAuthFail(String error) { } }; SessionEvents.addAuthListener(listener); facebookConnector.login(); } }
The clearCredentials() method is responsible for logoff functionality. All credentials are cleared from the system, and each interaction with Facebook will again trigger a login().
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
private void clearCredentials() { try { facebookConnector.getFacebook().logout(getApplicationContext()); } catch (MalformedURLException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } }

Double Jeopardy Prevents Accused Killer of Trans Woman from Facing Trial
A 20-year-old who had admitted pushing a trans woman into a river where she drowned will not face a trial over her death, thanks to the fact that prosecutors trying to tie the tragedy to another offense and get his probation revoked saw their gambit backfire, reported MySanAntonio.
Mark Daniel Lewis, 20, had failed to register as a sex offender and, as a result of that, was on probation. Prosecutors pointed to manslaughter charges in the death of 27-year-old Kenne McFadden, a transwoman, whose body was found in the San Antonio River in April of last year.
Evidence, including the testimony of a police officer, linked McFadden and Lewis and placed them together near the river a couple of days before her body was found in the water. Lewis himself offered an account in which McFadden and he kissed, but, he said, McFadden grabbed him in a way he disliked and he pushed her away. As a result, McFadden fell into the river. Lewis said he had not intended that to happen.
"I hate physical contact. I hate when people lay their hands on me," he told investigators. Lewis also said he was the survivor of sexual abuse.
Charges of manslaughter were filed against Lewis the following November, and it was those charges that prosecutors seeking the revocation of Lewis' probation cited as the reason for the revocation. But when District Court Judge Joey Contreras ruled that the manslaughter charges didn't hold up, both the probation case and the manslaughter case were dismissed at the same time, meaning that due to Constitutional protections against double jeopardy - which means that a person cannot be re-tried once found innocent of a crime - there would be no trial in McFadden's death.
Protests sparked by the outcome were scheduled for today, and Facebook organizers vowed to "make our voices heard!" That won't change the legalities, however.

Colourful Socks

love this! xxReplyDelete
I completely agree that colored socks add a nice touch to an outfit. Shoes are often the last thing that people pay attention to which sucks because they're really expensive. So the easiest way to draw attention to your shoes is fun socks.ReplyDelete

Forcing fast charge mode
From Openmoko
This page is intended to consolidate the information about forcing fast charge mode on the Neos.
Why this may be necessary
By default, the Neos will only draw 100 mA of power from a USB connection.
If the Neo recognizes the connection as a "smart" USB connection (by communicating with the host about power availability) or as a standard OpenMoko charger (by recognizing an expected resistance across two of the connectors) then it will switch into 'fast charge mode', drawing 500 mA or 1000 mA.
If the USB charger used is not properly signaling the phone its capacity to deliver 500 or 1000 mA, then you may (at your own risk) use this switch to force that mode (more details at http://quickstart.openmoko.org/#chargerdetection).
This switch is important, since the Neo almost always draws more than 100 mA to operate (I believe even while it's turned off, since the GSM stays powered up by default), so the battery will actually go dead while the Neo is charging!
Neo 1973
There are several ways of forcing fast charge mode:
- From a terminal or ssh session, execute 'echo -n "fast_cccv" > /sys/devices/platform/s3c2410-i2c/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0008/chgmode'
- To add a uboot menu entry, see Bootloader commands
I have also written a python script to monitor for slow charge and automatically pop up a gui asking if you want to switch to fast charge. Here are instructions on installing the script.
Neo Freerunner
The behaviour is pretty much the same as described above for the Noe 1973. There's also a 1000 mA mode for the OpenMoko-provided wall charger.
See : GTA02_sysfs#.2Fsys.2Fdevices.2Fplatform.2Fs3c2440-i2c.2Fi2c-adapter.2Fi2c-0.2F0-0073.2Fforce_usb_limit_dangerous for a description of the "hack" on the register used to control power charge from the FR.
Using a script
Here's a nicely packaged battery level and charge state script
User:Nytowl wrote a python script to control the fast charge states : Power Center.
Power Center allows you to force a Neo Freerunner into Fast charge modes. It can damage your hardware so be careful with what its plugged into. I'm not responsible if you toast the USB port on your brand new laptop.
copy Power Center into /usr/bin and "chmod u+x /usr/bin/power_center"
copy Power Center Desktop fileinto /usr/share/applications
To enable fast 500 mA charge "touch /home/root/allow_force_500"
To enable fast 1000 mA charge "touch /home/root/allow_force_1000" I don't recommend using this one
