PHP Script to send SMS from CSV to Mobile phones
Προϋπολογισμός $30-250 USD
I need a very simple php script to be able to receive contacts either from an Excel or CSV file or txt file and then allow me to build a simple text only message to send to my recipients using any of the imported records.
The idea is very similar to a MS Word mail merge except that it would be done in webpage.
So here is how it would work:
- I am a plumber & I have an Excel spreadsheet with 10 rows of data (With Name, Address, Cellphone number, Address, AppointmentDate, ProducttoInstall)
- I upload the Excel spreadsheet into the system
- The system receives the spreadsheet & recognizes the different fields
- I get a message builder area where I type a custom message such as:
Hello (FirstName),
This is to remind you that I will be coming to your house at,(Date), to install the (ProductType) . I will be there at exactly at (Time).
I look forward to see you:) Kamry.
- I need the script to send SMS messages to the recipients at their cellphone's "E-Mail" address so it would be sending messages to E.g. (555-777-888[@]at&[url removed, login to view]) or (555-777-888[@][url removed, login to view])
-If possible they should see my phone's email address as the source address. (E.g. 777-777-888[@]at&[url removed, login to view])
- The script should be able to automatically tell which cellphone provider is associated with each phone number & then associate each number with the correct provider domain name before sending the messages - so if I feed 10 of my customer's phone numbers the system will be able to tell who is with Sprint, Verizon, AT&T and then forward the message to the correct respective mobile addresses.
- Mobile phone providers usually changed the associated domain names so I would like a small page where can upgrade mobile phone provider domain names
- I would also want to be able to check to select the recipients with check boxes, by default all recipients should be selected
- I only need the script, design will be handled separately
(1). I need quick & clear response.
(2). I have some other functions that I would like to add later but right now, this is what I want. If you know MS word mail merge then you know exactly what I am looking for.
(3). Please give a clear overview of how you intend to tell the mobile provider from a US phone number
(4). There are quite a number of websites out there presently that have similar functions
(5). I have a limited budget, overly high & generic bids will be least considered, I just want a simple start-up solution right now, but winning bidder will get to expand the system later & possibly other related work.
(6). Past proven experience in building mobile related technology will be considered with higher priority.
Thanks for reading.

Crop Insurance Choice For 2014: Low Premium Costs Or Higher Coverage LevelsTweet
In three more weeks, the calculations will begin to determine the spring guarantees for crop insurance. Unfortunately, this year it will not even be close to the $5.65 for corn that it was last year, which many farmers thought was too low. When it was $6.01 in 2011, those were "the good old days." This year, the crop insurance guarantees may be closer to $4.60, which is the value of December futures contract prices. Regardless of the guarantee, your first decision will be to determine a coverage level for your crop. Will you stay at 85%, or will you cut back on coverage to reduce your outlay for premiums in a year when margins are going to be tight?
Because commodity prices are low, premiums will also be lower than they have been the past several years. However, when you are trying to break even on your input costs and your marketing plan, it is tempting to forego the 85% coverage that costs $16.17 per acre with a 190 APH, and opt for the 75% coverage at $3.83. But University of Illinois farm management specialist Gary Schnitkey says that is the opposite of what you probably want to do.
Farmers who are currently calculating a rather thin margin this year—or farmers who have a high debt to asset ratio—or farmers who have high amounts of cash rent will probably be smarter to obtain the highest amount of crop insurance they can, regardless of the premium cost. Schnitkey is not selling crop insurance or making any commission from what you purchase. He is looking at the amount of protection you need to cover your production expenses.
So what production expenses will you have for an acre of corn? Calculate your cost of planting an acre of corn. His numbers have non-land costs (seed, fertilizer, pesticides, fuel, etc.) at $515 per acre. Add your cash rent to that or your per acre payment if you are buying farmland. When that total moves past $678 per acre, your 85% crop insurance coverage will not pay any more. Lower coverages may barely cover your cost of inputs. Times are different than they were the last several years when crop insurance was guaranteeing more than $1,000 per acre.
Back to the question of what will you do when it comes time to select your coverage level for crop insurance? Lower coverage levels will expose an operator to revenue risk, says Schnitkey, who says, "An 85% coverage level has a $678 minimum cash guarantee compared to a $646 minimum guarantee at an 80% coverage level. Moving from an 85% to 80% coverage level exposes farmers to an additional $32 per acre of losses." Yes, you save money when it comes to premiums, but can your operation weather a financial storm, in addition to an atmospheric storm?
Schnitkey's recommendation is that, "It is likely that maintaining high coverage levels is a prudent financial move, particularly for farmers with high levels of cash rent or high debt-to-asset positions. Crop insurance premiums are federally subsidized, causing crop insurance to be an efficient way of providing downside revenue protection."
Crop insurance premiums for 2014 will be considerably less than the past several years because commodity prices are lower and there is less value to protect. But with lower premiums and less value to protect, crop insurance guarantees, whether the spring guarantee or the harvest guarantee will be considerably less than what most farmers have become used to getting. Subsequently, many producers will debate whether to continue the trend of getting the higher coverage, or opt for lower-priced coverage in a budget cutting move due to expected low profit margins. Because guarantees are lower, farmers may want to get the higher guarantees to cover as much of their production cost as possible. Lower levels of coverage with lower premiums may fall well short of covering input costs, much less any land costs.

Jason Kundell
Jason was born and raised in Southern California, but his mustache hails from an El Paso Rancher's upper lip. In 2009, he migrated north, as he left San Francisco to bring the Pacific Northwest his brand of Japanese inspired tattooing in his reincarnation of the world renown Art Work Rebels tattoo studio. Outside of tattooing Jason enjoys Jiu Jitsu, porchetta sandwiches, & Neurosis, but puts spending time with his daughter, Lula, above everything else. Jason can often be spotted towing Lula on his bike around the city on his days off.
George Campise
My name is George Campise & I work & own War Horse Tattoo in Berkeley California. Originally from southern New Jersey, I moved to San Francisco in 1991 & started tattooing in 1993. I've had no formal instruction in art (beyond high school) except for the example set before me by the incredible gallery of artists & tattooist I've been fortunate enough to work with over the last 19 years. Through my shared experiences with these people as co-workers, at times clients & often as jackasses I feel I've been able to find my voice & develop a style which in equal measure has been influenced by the imagery of my childhood (comics, movies, skate art) and the genius I've been fortunate enough to witness. I truly cannot express enough the gratitude I have for these people & on a larger scale tattooing as a whole. Every single positive thing I have in my life, from friends to family, tattooing has provided. I hope my time as a practitioner reflects my gratitude for having been chosen for this honor.
I am very proud of what we have achieved on just a belief in something real, and how we used our determination and our time and our voice to affect human change. Please go to www.gypsygentleman.com and support us.

Receiver Appointed for Adventure Mfg.
April 3, 2009 by Bob Ashley · 1 Comment
Mark Gerber, the former president of Adventure Manufacturing Inc., dba Timberland RV Co., has been appointed receiver by First Farmers Bank in Converse, Ind., to sell the assets of a company he co-founded 10 years ago.
"I've been hired back by the bank to liquidate the assets," said Gerber, who left the Peru, Ind.-based towable manufacturer in January.
"Basically, the cause was the credit crisis. If the money flow is destroyed and everything is going out and nothing is coming in, you can't do much business," Gerber said.
The company stopped manufacturing units at the end of January and all finished product has been sold to dealers, Gerber said. "There is still some raw materials to be sold," he said. "Everything should be completed within 30 days. We've been selling down pretty quickly."
Gerber said that liquidation will occur via private sales rather than at auction.
Gerber left the company following a change late last summer in Adventure's majority ownership. Despite his involvement as receiver, there is no plan to resurrect Adventure, he said. "This is not a reorganization," Gerber said. "Adventure is dead."
About 100 employees were laid off at the end of January when Adventure shuttered its two-building, 130,000-square-foot manufacturing campus about 75 miles south of Indiana's RV-manufacturing hub in Elkhart, Ind.
Gerber founded Adventure in 1999 with operating partner Kean MacOwan, also a former Fleetwood executive, to build towables at the top of the entry-level segment. Within two years, the company was ranked 14th in retail sales. Before the company closed down in January, workers completed Adventure's 13,000th travel trailer.
At its zenith, Adventure employed 300 people building Timberlodge, RPM, Chisholm Trail and Riverside towable lines.

Wayland preparing to host MusiConference West
Wayland Baptist University will serve as host for the Baptist General Convention of Texas' MusiConference West slated for July 20-21.
The conference features seminars on every aspect of church music - from leading worship to teaching preschool choirs to instrumentals. Music leadership and teachers from all churches and denominations are invited to participate.
"This is an offshoot of the conference they hold at Baylor University every year. It's gone from about 100 participants to several hundred. We felt like it was time to do this in the West Texas area," explained Robert Black, Assistant Professor of Fine Arts at Wayland and Director of Church Music Studies. "Wayland was gracious to provide the facilities for this."
The Plainview conference marks the first time the BGCT has offered more than one MusiConference in a summer. According to Black, it also means more convenient and affordable instruction for music leaders.
"This is an opportunity for church musicians at any level to get first-class practical instruction," he said. "There's no way an individual church could provide any one or two of these (teachers), much less all of them."
Black said the faculty for the seminars is arranged through BGCT and is the same staff that will be leading the MusiConference in Waco later. Among the teachers, he said, is youth choir specialist Randy Edwards and Conchita Hansford, a former Plainview resident who specializes in children's choir.
Classes to be offered include instruction for choir leaders of preschool, young children, older children, children grades 1-6 and youth; children's choir coordinators; pianists and organists (varies by experience level); handbell directors; music ministers; bivocational music ministers and instrumental leaders.
Registration is available beginning at 10 a.m. July 20 in Room 126 of the Harral Music Center (adjacent to Harral Memorial Auditorium) located at 7th and Utica Streets. Classes begin at 1 p.m. and run through the afternoon. Various exhibits and a bookstore will be offered as well.
On Friday evening at 7:30 p.m., a concert by jazz and classical guitarist Rodrigo Rodriguez will be presented in Harral Auditorium. Classes resume Saturday morning and the conference adjourns at 4:30 p.m.
Fees for the conference are $50 per person for those from BGCT churches. The conference is $90 per person for others. Registration may be completed at the door or in advance. Some housing on the Wayland campus is available for conference attendees.
For more information or for a registration application, contact Wayland's Department of Music, 806.296.4741 or Robert Black at 291-5067 or 293-5669.

Minutes from the Big East football meeting after the ACC raid in 2003
After the ACC raid of the Big East in 2003 of Miami and Virginia Tech, the six-remaining football schools met to discuss options for the future of the conference. The minutes from the meeting leaked out a few years ago and the Big East has confirmed them. (I'm shocked that no one in the media has discussed these during all of the expansion talk)
Big East Football Meeting Minutes - July 2003
- The Athletic Directors of the six-remaining football members agreed to a split between the football and basketball-only schools and expansion to an 8 or 9 team football conference.
- The Presidents appear to have gotten cold feet about abandoning the five basketball-onlies who would be left out in the cold without an NCAA auto-bid. Notre Dame also supported keeping the conference intact and kept the split vote at 6-6 without a majority.
- The Big East approached Notre Dame and Penn State about membership (SU Chancellor Shaw approached Father Harrington of ND and Graham Spanier of Penn State).
- Of the expansion candidates, everyone supported adding Louisville, was considering Cincinnati and Temple for all sports, and UCF, Army, and Navy for football only. Dismissed Memphis, Marshall, Southern Miss, ECU, UAB, and South Florida (Louisville would eventually get USF in).
- Syracuse AD Jake Crouthamel led off the meeting by saying that if the Big East went to the hybrid 16-team conference he would retire. Jake retired in 2005.
- Father Leahy (BC) indicates he "never felt the Big East had a commitment to excellence and, further it had difficulty in balancing football/basketball issues. If people within the room at some point feel uncomfortable about the direction of the league and, secondly, is presented with an attractive alternative, they would pay the $5M penalty and give the 27-month notice." BC left the Big East shortly thereafter.
The binding contract entered into by the football schools with each other with a penalty of $5 million and 27-month notice for leaving the conference... expires July 1st.
Big Ten and ACC raiding of the Big East may have yet to begin.

The Dolphins needed to make 20 moves today to get down the NFL mandated 53-man limit by 6 p.m.
They waived Kevin Hobbs, Rolly Lumbala, Chris McCoy, Nate Ness, Julius Pruitt, Austin Spitler, Donald Thomas, Pat White, Patrick Turner, Erik Walden, Ryan Baker, Ross Weaver, Lionel Dotson, Jonathon Amaya, J.D. Folsom, Andrew Gardner, Andrew Hartline and Ray Fienga.
The Dolphins also terminated the contracts of David Martin and Montavious Stanley.
Twenty names. Twenty moves.
The Dolphins are at the NFL roster limit.
Are you surprised by any of this?
Perhaps the David Martin termination is surprising. His agent, Terry Williams, told me he was surprised by it. But if you look at the depth chart, Martin was running third behind both Anthony Fasano and John Nalbone.
It is likely the Dolphins didn't want to pick up Martin's $755,000 contract which would be guaranteed for the year if he is on the roster the first week. Also, the Dolphins will be looking for TE help. Anthony Becht, cut in Arizona on Friday, is a possibility. He was drafted by Bill Parcells in the first round back with the Jets.
The waiving of Turner and White means the Dolphins blew it with a second-round and third-round pick in 2009.
Miami will go with three quarterbacks -- Chad Henne, Chad Pennington and Tyler Thigpen -- in that order with Pennington being the long-term backup. That means that if Henne is injured and out for the year, Pennington is the player who takes over. What is uncertain is whether the Dolphins will use Thigpen in a package similar to the one they used with Pat White last year. That would mean Thigpen would be active every week while Pennington would be inactive.
That package's name, assuming it exists? WildThig?
Marlon Moore and Roberto Wallace made it as undrafted free agent wide receivers. Amazing!
Another undrafted free agent -- Micah Johnson, who was picked up after training camp began when the Giants waived him -- has made the team.
Interestingly perhaps only to me, Quentin Moses has made the team for now. He missed nearly two weeks of the preseason nursing an injury but earned a spot anyway.
I say for now on so many of these because the Dolphins are spending tonight looking through the wires for the talent on other teams. So none of the guys that make up roster spot Nos. 53, 52, 51, or 50 should rush out to buy a house.

All participants will be provided with a case in advance to review.
"I will admit that initially, it was difficult to get involved in case analysis after four years of lecture-based learning. However, once the discussion began, it became a compelling experience and forced me to be on my toes for the hour or so spent reviewing the case.

The Pride struck for five runs in the top of the first to open up the first game. After a strikeout to lead things off, Springfield ran off five straight hits, capped by a two-run home run by Chelsea Bender (Poughkeepsie, N.Y.). Ally Rivelli (North Kingstown, R.I.) singled to start things off and came home on a double by Kasey Kelly (Poughkeepsie, N.Y.). Kelly Blake (Watertown, Conn.) and Breann Joyce (Trumbull, Conn.) hit back-to-back singles to chase MIT starter Karly McLaughlin (Edwardsville, Ill.) before Bender's round-tripper.
Springfield added another run in the second on an RBI-double by Blake and tacked on three more in the fifth as Tess Gagliano (Atlantic Highlands, N.J.) went deep.
McLaughlin took the loss, her second on the season, for Tech while Ashley Marino (Harrison, N.Y.) earned the win with three scoreless innings in the pitcher's circle.
Springfield jumped out to an early lead in the first inning of game two, plating three runs on four hits in the frame. Gagliano and Kelly reached with a pair of one-out singles and moved up on a double steal. Gagliano came home on an RBI-groundout by Blake and Joyce doubled in Kelly. Bender swapped places with Joyce with a run-scoring double of her own.
MIT came right back in the bottom half of the inning, tying the game at three thanks to a two-run double by junior Leah Alpert (Needham, Mass.). Junior Anna Christensen (Vernon Hills, Ill.) started things off with a walk and McLaughlin reached on an error by the third baseman. Senior Jessica Iacobucci (Phoenixville, Pa.) drove in the first run with a base-hit up the middle and Alpert plated two more with a double over the centerfielder's head.
The Pride retook the lead in the second inning, as they scored three more runs on just one hit and a pair of MIT errors. Kelsey Dunn (Waterbury, Conn.) and Kelly Noonan (Oak Ridge, N.J.) scored on an error by Christensen and Blake drove in another with an RBI double.
Springfield tacked on two more runs in the fourth and sixth innings to complete the series sweep. Jennifer Joseph (Stamford, Conn.) earned the win in game two, giving up three runs over six innings while striking out six. Iacobucci took the loss in game two but struck out seven Springfield batters in six innings of work.
The Engineers will host Wentworth Institute of Technology for a non-conference doubleheader on Wednesday, April 11 before returning to NEWMAC play next Friday against Clark. The Pride will host Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts on Tuesday for a pair of games.

Dr. Jei Africa is a graduate of both the Clinical PsyD program and the Clinical Psychopharmacology Postdoctoral MS Program at CSPP. He is one of the few Tagalog-speaking clinical psychologists in the San Francisco Bay Area who is also certified as a domestic violence and addiction counselor. Jei also works as a consultant, educator and facilitator on integrating diversity and multicultural issues in clinical and organizational practice.
Presently, he is Director of the Office of Diversity and Equity at the San Mateo County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (BHRS), where he has been a leader and advocate in promoting social justice and health equity. He helped create the Office of Diversity and Equity, establishing an infrastructure to strategically address diversity issues and help communicate BHRS' commitment to promoting healthy communities. Through his guidance and leadership, numerous initiatives have developed to promote address different culturally-focused disparities: Latino Collaborative, Filipino Mental Health Initiative, African American Community Initiative, Chinese Initiative, Pacific Islander Initiative, Native American Initiative, and the PRIDE Initiative focused on LGBTQ issues.
Jei has also led efforts to design services and curricula to address linguistic barriers for individuals and families who are limited English proficient (LEP), and he is currently leading county-wide efforts to integrate cultural competence and cultural humility practices and services to every department in San Mateo County.
Prior to his current role, he worked with Asian American Recovery Services (AARS) and Community Overcoming Relationship Abuse (CORA) to strengthen their commitment to cultural competence through strategic planning, training and dialogues where diversity is highlighted at the core of services. At CORA, he helped design a case management program, highlighting the significance of providing culturally and linguistically responsive services to victims and survivors of domestic violence.
As Past President of both the San Mateo County Commission on the Status of Women in San Mateo County and ALLICE (Alliance for Community Empowerment), he was a model and advocate for professional responsiveness to the needs of different communities in San Mateo, extending beyond racial and ethnic identities.
Born and raised in the Quezon City, Philippines, Jei came to the US to pursue his doctoral degree and learn how to help people who are touched by mental health issues.
While he was a graduate student at CSPP, Jei often challenged the traditional interventions when working with people. He raised issues of social justice and health equity in his classes as a way to link larger community issues to routine clinical work.
Dr. Jei, as he is known in the community, has received numerous awards for his work. In 2012, he was honored as one of four LGBT Local Heroes by KQED and Union Bank in a special ceremony and event at the Castro Theater. In 2009, he received the Statewide Cultural Competence Mental Health Summit Professional Award and was named one of the 100 Most Influential Filipinas in the US, in the Thoughts and Innovation Category. He has also received many awards for his volunteer and community work, including citations from Congresswoman Anna G. Eshoo, Congressman George Miller and Former Senator Leland Yee.
To encourage CSPP student research in Filipino American Studies, in 2012 Jei created the Jei Africa Dissertation Award for Filipino American Studies. Through his generosity, students receive financial support for dissertations in this area, ultimately advancing the research in the field.
Of his experience, Jei has said, "CSPP provided me with wonderful opportunities to grow both professionally and personally. It was not just an academic institution for me, but it was also my second home. There were many brilliant teachers and mentors that challenged and inspired me to do my best. And there were others, like staff and other students, that supported me along the way, especially when things were difficult. To bring the value of social justice and equity in psychology was very important to me. CSPP not only harnessed my clinical skills but also supported my strong sense of advocacy for others. I feel I am a better psychologist because of my CSPP experience"

Overview of electronic ID documents
The department "Official Electronic ID Documents" of the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) focuses on piloting and implementation of new technologies and the issue of specifications for electronic ID documents, such as the electronic ID card, the electronic passport and the electronic residence permit.
An electronic ID document distinguishes itself from existing standard identity documents by an integrated electronic chip, on which the personal data of the document holder is additionally stored in electronic form. What data is stored and how it is done and exactly what benefits are gained can be found in the description of each document.
With the support of other areas of the BSI various tasks are processed, which the technical development of a new electronic ID document entails.
Following topics are included:
Concepts, technical guidelines, protection profiles, studies
Concepts, technical guidelines, specifications, safety profiles and studies are created, including:
- the data exchange format between data collection and document production (TR-03104),
- the formats of data stored on the ID document (TR-03110),
- the security of data on the chip (TR-03110),
- Chip cards and readers (see also protection profiles),
- Biometrics in electronic ID documents (e.g. TR-03121) and Public Key Infrastruktures (PKI).
The results are consistently coordinated with various national and international institutions. These are, for example:
- Federal Ministry of the Interior
- The Federal Commissioner for Data Protection
- Federal Criminal Police Office
- other public authorities
- national standardization committees such as DIN/DIF
- international organizations such as CEN, ISO and ICAO
To enable the use of electronic identity documents, pilot projects had to and also have to be realized in different domains. Therefor, the following was initiated, implemented and / or accompanied:
- chip card testing
- development of reading devices for different applications
- development of reading software
- development of a middleware between ID document and user software
- testing of application transactions
- setting-up of infrastructures for identity control applications of the control authorities
- development of applications for non-public authority use
- testing of biometric procedures
Quality assurance
For quality assurance regarding of the soft- and hardware used in context of electronic ID documents:
- test specifications are issued and
- interoperability test are performed
These tasks include the support of various institutions, such as
- authorities (e.g. Federal Police, Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs),
- manufacturers (e.g document manufacturers, manufacturers of reading devices as well as software developers) and
service providers (e.g trust centers and computing service centers).

Those of us who follow health care may be overlooking the big picture. Most of the profound (and sometimes disruptive) changes of the last half century – computers, the Internet, social networks – weren't initiated by the political process. They arose at the intersection of technology, economics, and mass social change. So here's something to think about:
Could the medical profession go the way of the record industry?
Consider the path that led to the current crisis in the music business:
1. An industry with a near-total monopoly experiences a minor disruption (in music's case, with the invention of cassette tape recording).
2. It 'relaxes' and assumes the crisis has past.
3. An even better technology comes along (the Internet) that includes lateral as well as vertical connections. (Individuals could only make tapes for themselves; sharing was possible but cumbersome, until the Net and mp3s made it instantaneous and worldwide.)
4. The industry fails to recognize the long-term significance and risks of this new tech.
5. Enterprising individuals use this new technology to distribute "information" of mutual interest – songs – through "P2P" (peer-to-peer) file sharing.
The result? A massive and ongoing implosion of the music biz. (David Byrne provided an excellent overview in Wired, with some corrections on his blog.)
Could the same thing happen to the medical profession? Many people's immediate reaction will be to say 'no.' They'll list the many barriers to what we might call a 'P2PMed' disruption of our medical economy (with 'P2P' here meaning either 'peer-to-peer' or 'patient to patient'.) Doctors are too respected. Regulations won't permit it. Doctors control access to medications. Medical information is walled off behind expensive, subscription-only medical journals. It's unthinkable.
That's pretty much how the record industry reacted in the 1990s. Let's look at those objections:
160 million people looked up medical information on the Internet circa 2007, according to Harris polling data. Yet they still go to doctors. That's true – just as millions of people made tape copies of music for decades without seriously undermining musical economics.
Each of these searches was a solitary activity. The difference will come when a new technology allows lateral information-sharing in a way that people trust. It hasn't happened yet, but smart people are banking on the idea that it will soon. I agree with that assessment, although none of the many projects I've looked at so far struck me as a breakthrough. But a lot of folks are working on it.
Doctors monopolize access to medications through the power of the prescription pad. That monopoly's already eroding as online pharmacies provide low-cost 'doctor consults,' a legal work-around that allows – to an sometimes disturbing extent – easy access to meds. Where there is demand, there will be suppliers.
People won't spend money based on self-referral. The multi-billion dollar complementary medicine industry demonstrates this is untrue. Most "CAM" (complementary and alternative medicine) transactions are based on self-referral out of the traditional MD/patient relationship.
Medical information is walled off. True, but a backlash against the sequestering of research data is already underway. Case in point: A new publication called The Journal of Participatory Medicine hopes to provide peer-reviewed articles on self care for patients, as board member Kevin Kelly writes.
The Journal's Advisory Board reads like a Who's Who of Internet and medical business pioneers (and it's an open-source publication, meaning its content will be free to all). The Journal goal of helping patients take "responsibility for their own health and healing" (in Kevin Kelly's words) aligns with decades of movement toward a more patient-centric model championed by both the Left (as "patient's rights") and the Right (as with high-deductible "consumer-directed health plans").
Once again, the left/right paradigm is ill-suited for new developments … and don't blame initiatives like the Journal if medicine goes the way of record labels. They're symptoms of broader socio-informational change, not its cause.
We can only guess what such change would look like: A widely trusted P2PMed platform catches fire, followed by widespread adoption of a model we might call "self-directed care." People use online resources (best practices guidelines, diagnostic tools, etc.) to choose their own care path, then find direct or indirect ways to access the care they've chosen.
Not all doctors would go out of business after such a transition, of course. They're still selling some CDs, too. So who would be most likely to thrive after the transformation?
High-touch practitioners: Empathetic, comforting, and warm doctors.
"Mechanics": The most gifted and accomplished surgeons sometimes use this word to describe themselves. We will need talented neurosurgeons, cardiac surgeons, and other "fixers" for the foreseeable future (at least until the self-programmable nanobots take over).
Innovators: Doctors who are always exploring, changing, and trying new things, staying one step ahead of the curve.
Integrators: Doctors who can bring together seemingly unrelated ideas and solutions, whether in diagnosis or in treatment. Integration is the foundation of creativity, and creative doctors will always be valued.
Who'll fail? Doctors who function by rote, who make routine diagnoses, and who connect patients to other resources based on past relationships and not need. Anyone whose expertise and connections are easily replicated on the Internet (think "travel agents") will struggle to survive.
Watching the AMA defend its turf on issues like doctor reimbursement is like watching the RIAA file copyright lawsuits against teenagers, even as its business model collapses around it. You can't fight your own market and win, and you can't fight yesterday's battles. Doctor groups should look more like think tanks and less like a lobbying groups. (Come to think of it, so should the RIAA.)
A topic this complex can't be properly covered in a piece this short. And predicting this kind of change is not the same thing as endorsing it. But, like it or not, we should be talking about it now.
Because – like it or not – it, or something like it, is coming.

When investing in the financial markets investors must learn one important factor in their decision making process. That one important factor is to be patient; patience can make or break any investor that disregards time to evaluate a trade before it is made.
Every investor must pay attention, just as if they were crossing a street. Before crossing a street we were always taught as children to look both ways before crossing. If you don't look both ways there is a ninety nine percent chance that you will get hit by a vehicle.
When purchasing stocks, foreign exchange or options it is not any different, the same rules apply. You must be very patient and follow all the rules.
One mistake can ruin an investor's entire account due to the lack of not taking his or her time. You must learn technical analysis, fundamental analysis, candle stick charting and moving averages just to name a few, but most of all patience. Being patient is the key to making money in the financial markets.
Patience is the ability to endure waiting, delay, or provocation without becoming annoyed or upset, or to preserve calmly when faced with difficulties. We all know everything takes time.
Many investors that rush trades by trying to beat the market, getting in too late or trying to get in early usually lose money very fast. From this day on alleviate the stress take a deep breath and relax, take your time and you will make money be able to make winning trades.

LAS VEGAS -- Who doesn't like winning stuff? Or getting it free when you buy a product or service that you need or were going to purchase anyway?
Electronic gadgets, gift cards, a giant toolbox, even a motorcycle are among the cool prizes up for grabs if you're a dealer walking the exhibit floor at the NADA convention.
Giant signs at the NADA Used Car Guide booth scream that it is handing out iPad 2 tablets with a one-year subscription to its NADA Appraisal PRO used-vehicle appraisal tool. Manheim is giving away goodies such as Garmin navigation systems, Kindle Fire tablets and $200 Home Depot gift cards to winners of a game designed to showcase the attributes of its new Manheim Simulcast Everywhere auction system.
Mopar, Chrysler Group's parts and accessories arm, is giving away huge toolboxes on wheels in daily raffles. The toolbox, which looks all of three feet high and about twice as wide, is covered in Mopar blue and black "3M gloss over laminate," and is a $4,631 value, its sign says.
The swipe of conference badges at Compli's booth enters attendees in a drawing for Bose QuietComfort 15 Acoustic Noise Cancelling headphones. Compli, a Portland, Ore., provider of human resources and compliance management software, doesn't offer a value for the headphones, but they run at least $200, according to several online ads for the product.
Or how about winning a 2012 Harley-Davidson V-Rod 10th Anniversary Edition, being given away by software provider DealerTrack? The price? Starts at $15,999 not including freight, according Harley's Web site.
Turns out, winning is taking place somewhere other than just in the casinos. And who knows? The odds might be better in the exhibit hall, too.

Yet eating disorders do not only affect women; about one percent of men struggle with anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating. At any given time, millions of people are battling guilt, shame, self-hatred, and roller-coaster habits associated with food.
Catherine Boyle, a Christian writer and speaker, recently shared her personal victory over the power of eating disorders, and she shared how others can also find freedom from this physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual struggle.
Q/ Tell us about the mindset of someone struggling with an eating disorder.
A/ For years I was anorexic, and for a couple years after that I was bulimic, basically, all of college. You think that you're a failure … unless you have this mythical perfect body. It leads you to believe that you've failed in other areas of your life if you can't keep your body under control.
Q/ And what triggers this?
A/ There is a huge entanglement of eating disorders and romantic relationships … but usually there is some kind of catalyst that sets the whole thing in motion. No one thing is going to make you have an eating disorder or not. … It could be really any kind of unexpected disappointment.
I remember seeing interviews with women who say, "My parents got divorced, and six months later I was all of sudden anorexic." Or "My dad died, and then I didn't want to eat anymore."
A personal example of what really set mine off was when it was time for me to go away to college: My parents told me pretty much at the last possible second that [my] option was go to community college or don't go at all. I had worked very hard and was at the top of my class and really never saw this coming.
Just a few months after finding out that I was going to have to stay at home for two more years and not really be able to pursue my dream, I was anorexic.
Q/ What is your definition of an eating disorder?
A/ When what you're doing, what you're not doing, or what you want to avoid doing with food is the center of your life, then it becomes an eating disorder.
If underneath everything else, what you're thinking about is food and your weight, then you have an eating disorder, whether or not you've been officially diagnosed.
If you talk to doctors now, there's even Eating Disorders Not Otherwise Specified (EDNOS) as a diagnosis now, which is a kind of a catch-all if you're not strictly anorexic—starving yourself to death—or if you're not strictly bulimic—eating 20,000 calories and then throwing up every day—then you get lumped into this EDMOS category.
Q/ Have you found some places in the Bible that you believe speak directly or symbolically about the struggle of eating disorders?
A/ Ezekiel and Jeremiah both said that when the children of Israel put something in the center of the lives other than God, an idol, what would come from that would be famine and plague.
If you look at our times, we have a very idolatrous culture; we live in a time when adultery is even kind of celebrated. When believers are idolatrous, they are spiritually adulterous. We've left our first love for something else.
We have plague: one in four women have sexually transmitted diseases in their lifetimes. We have famine in our culture, spiritual famine. It's not about head knowledge. It's about making God's word part of who you are.
Q/ Do you think that every woman struggles with an unhealthy body image at some time in her life?
A/ I would be shocked to find a woman who has never felt some angst about some part of her anatomy.
Q/ And that might just be, like you're saying, an inborn tendency that's related to sin—everything is out of balance. How do you come back to a healthy place of caring for your body in a healthy way, yet not being obsessive about it?
A/ I just have to tell you what God did for me. … People don't want to think that there's any choice involved in an eating disorder, but there absolutely is. We make choices every single day, and maybe you don't choose the things that happen to you that build up to the eating disorder, but you choose your responses.
It gets really uncomfortable and kind of scary to think about not having an eating disorder when you've been in it long enough. I remember distinctly being anorexic and bulimic and thinking, "If I eat normally, I am just going to weigh 500 pounds," which was crazy … but it's just the way that you think.
God doesn't ask us to change everything about our lives for the rest of our lives. We just have to be willing to do things differently today. Maybe it will be just one meal that you start and you actually eat something. Repenting is the first thing, to have the willingness for change.
The second thing is to restore godly standards in your life. If a person is idolatrous, and therefore, spiritually adulterous, and I do believe that these are sins that underlie an eating disorder, then … you've got to put back in place what God says is right and live according to those standards, or you're not going to see yourself differently.
God's ways are good for us. It's not about a rule or a set of dos and don'ts. It's about what God says is good for us. When you do start putting godly standards in place, then you do start feeling better about yourself. And you think, "Gosh, my body is worth taking care of, and I am worthy of love and respect."
The final part is renewal, and this is what was most important for me. Romans 12:1-2 talks about how God will transform us by renewing our minds when we fill our minds with His word.
" …Offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. …" (Romans 12:1-2, NIV).
This is absolutely what happened to me. … I don't believe you can get well until you clean the inside of the cup, the spirit.
"Then the Lord said to him, 'Now then, you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also?'" (Luke 11:39-40, NIV).
Q/ So the renewing part is how someone can find lasting change from the power of an eating disorder?
A/ It's got to be the renewing of your mind. So much starts in your mind. God wants us to be in His word; fulfilling ourselves with His word ongoing because that's the only thing we really have as a sword.
Christ used God's word as a weapon against Satan. If we're not storing His word in our minds, then we're going to be defenseless against eating disorders.

What a beauty..well done Huawei :)
22. james004 (Posts: 486; Member since: 15 May 2013)
huawei makes these good looking phones but they make the price equal to sony and samsung phones. thats really ridiculous.
if people wanted $600+ phone why would they ever buy Huawei?
i dont know if people are comfortable with paying such expensive prices for phones but im certainly not. these phones cost just $400 even with a good profit on top, so why are we paying $200 extra?
27. thedesmodes (Posts: 1; Member since: 27 May 2013)
Are you stupid Huawei is known for being cheap I got my Huawei Ascend P1 for $299 and where did you get a price of $600 nowhere does it say that.

If Apple sue Huawei for this phone, well, I have to say that Apple is jealous.

They certainly got the thin down. Looks great. I do wonder how it will perform as our data hunger is growing significantly. That means the need for better battery life, fast operation, and of course a variety of radios.

Striped Sweater Dress
Added Mar 21, 2013
by juebejue
San Jose, Califo...
DescriptionI wanted some sweater dresses for winter I hadnt gotten back in shape enough to be comfortable in my old jeans, but I didnt have much sweaters that are long enough to be decent with leggings. Also, I needed something that can be opened up easily for breast feeding. So I made this dress/cardigan.
It was made using wool sweater knit, so it is very warm. I made it using only the serger, so it didnt take long. There are snap button closures along the front and the belt (I hate the little yarn that retailers use to hold the belt in place). When its buttoned up, I can wear it with leggings as a dress. When unbuttoned, it looks good as a layering cardigan.
I actually dont wear it anymore – the wool knit I bought is quite scratchy!
Material Notes
wool knit – scratchy!

The benefits of owning your own ecommerce domain
Have you always wanted to own a domain name and run an online business? Have you already bought your own domain name, but don't know which steps to take to turn it into a thriving online store? If so, we might be able to help. Our software, ecommerce domain hosting, and easy to use online store builder is the perfect combination to set you on the road to online success.
Benefits of owning a domain
There are many benefits to having your own domain name and website. When you own the site you are working with you will have more control over how the site looks, how it is run, and more. The internet is as popular as ever, and its use in everyday life seems to be growing at an exponential rate. Consumers love to use the internet for news, entertainment, and communicating with others, and it has also become an ideal avenue for shopping. Why is the internet ideal for shopping? Think about item location. Consumers can locate exactly what they want by simply entering a term into a search engine like Google. Within seconds they can see the item, compare prices, read reviews, see previews via videos, and much more. This can all be achieved without leaving the comfort of their own home and is a big reason why many are starting to shop online rather than in stores. With such a shift to the internet, it makes sense to own a domain name and website to sell your products.
Another benefit of having your own domain name and ecommerce site is that it is cost-effective. With a website, you do not have to worry about paying a lease for a physical location. You also don't have to worry about hiring an army of employees, as most websites can run with little help thanks to great technology. All of this convenience at a lower cost becomes even better when you consider the broader target audience achieved through a website. When you have an ecommerce site that is properly marketed, your products can be put on display for millions to see all around the globe.
Setting up your ecommerce store
Now that you know the benefits of owning an ecommerce domain, it is important to learn how to implement your ecommerce site and start earning money. It all begins with picking a design theme for the site. We give you domain ecommerce hosting that requires zero setup on your part and comes with unlimited bandwidth. Along with choosing a design theme, you will need to set up a shopping cart to accept PayPal and credit card payments. You can run your store with ease thanks to our user-friendly content management system. To give your site maximum exposure, you should also have access to marketing and SEO services, mobile commerce solutions, and apps that will extend the functionality of your site.
As you can see, it takes more than just owning a domain name to get your ecommerce business up and running. There are many different things to take into account including funding and start-up costs, business plans, and more. One of the first things you need to do when starting an online store is come up with funding. Funding can come from various sources so it is important to do some research and figure out how to best fund your new business venture. It is also important to come up with a business plan. This will outline how you will get your business up and running and continue to make it successful. It is imperative to the success of your store to have a solid business plan. Once you have all of these things in order, you will be able to build your online store with us and start making money. We offer domain ecommerce hosting and more.

The featured artist at this weekend's Southwest Indian Art Fair is Jody Folwell, who is an internationally recognized artist from Santa Clara Pueblo, New Mexico.
Folwell is known as the matriarch of Native American avant-garde pottery. She hand-crafts and paints all her own work, and her designs often blend traditional symbolism with contemporary elements, including political commentary.
The first thing that becomes apparent when one sees Folwell working with clay is how at ease she is manipulating the medium. She grabs and kneads large chunks of earthen colored clay nonchalantly as she begins the assembly of one of her famous pots, all while chatting comfortably in the back yard of her daughter's Tucson home.
"I come from a pottery family," she said. "My great grandmother made pottery, my grandmother made pottery, my mother made pottery. "
Folwell said coming from a pottery family mans she was born into the world of art without realizing it. The clay has become part of daily life, and the rituals of making art have become part of who she is.
Folwell is considered a pioneer in avant-garde Native American pottery, and her work often features asymmetrical designs, innovative colors and political commentary. It's a direction she says she took soon after graduate school.
"When I first started making pottery no one would purchase my work," she said. "I couldn't even give away my pots. I started to think.. all you need to do is take that tiny little step sideways and there might be success in that."
Andrew Higgins, assistant curator of ethnological collections at the UA's Arizona State Museum, said Santa Clara pottery has certain distinctive characteristics that differentiate it from that of other groups.
The museum's collection shows how Santa Clara pottery evolved into polychromatic designs that incorporate natural pigments, he added. However, when he looked at a piece by Foldwell, he said, "And of course, when you look at that you don't think Santa Clara Pueblo. There's no "can't" in what she does. She makes you think and it's amazing that she's an artist that can do that. An acrylic pot with social commentary or she might be collaborating with her daughter. They're all different."
Jody Folwell is the featured artist at the Southwest Indian Art Fair, Saturday, Feb. 22 and Sunday, Feb. 23 at the Arizona State Museum.

Has anyone got a tricolour adult with the same markings as my puppy, Bobby? He has all black head and back, with all white chin, legs and tummy and a white end section on this tail. He has tan markings in the usual spots on his eyebrows, inside ears and legs and only a small white smudge next to his nose. I would love to see what he will look like when he's older but all pictures of tricolour show the typical markings of white nose, head and back?

'Hobbit' cast tease trailer, bloopers at Comic-Con
SAN DIEGO (AP) — "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" launched a full-scale assault on Comic-Con.
The cast and crew from the final installment of "The Hobbit" trilogy showed off the first trailer for the fantasy film at the pop-culture convention, as well as a blooper reel from both "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" movies.
Stephen Colbert, dressed as the shaggy-haired character he cameoed as in "The Hobbit," enthusiastically moderated Friday's panel at the San Diego Convention Center.
The trailer conjured up for the audience of 6,500 attendees gathered inside Hall H showed the dragon Smaug setting Lake-town ablaze, Cate Blanchett's royal elf Galadriel kissing the forehead of Ian McKellen's beleaguered wizard Gandalf and legions of elves and orcs racing into battle.
"That was really just for you, Stephen," filmmaker Peter Jackson said to the talk show host and J.R.R. Tolkien super-fan. "I mean, these other people are here, as well."
Jackson was joined by several cast members for Friday's celebration of all things "Hobbit," including Blanchett, Orlando Bloom, Elijah Wood, Evangeline Lilly, Luke Evans and Lee Pace.
They were also joined by Benedict Cumberbatch and Andy Serkis, who portray the computer-generated Smaug and Gollum. Both actors imitated their fantastical characters when pressed by fans. When asked where he'd like Gollum to visit, Serkis joked "backstage with Stephen Colbert to see what he's got inside his costume, precious."
At the start of the panel, Colbert introduced a lengthy blooper reel that highlighted several funny moments left on the cutting room floor during the 13-year history of the films. The bloopers mostly featured McKellen riffing on other actors, flubbing his lines and, in one instance, lifting Gandalf's robe to show off a pair of white briefs.
"The Battle of the Five Armies" is set to debut Dec. 17.

Grand homes with exquisite mountain architecture featuring massive logs and rustic stonework make up the unmistakable sense of place found in Bachelor Gulch. Gated entrances offer an extra level of exclusivity, and there's not a single property that doesn't feature impressive views of the valley below and the jagged peaks of the Gore Mountain Range and Castle Peak in the distance.
Bachelor Gulch has its own ski slopes, with a chairlift that serves the Ritz Carlton Bachelor Gulch, and trails that provide a village-to-village ski experience from Beaver Creek to Bachelor Gulch to Arrowhead. There's also a gondola connection to the Westin Riverfront in Avon at the base of Bachelor Gulch. It's the only residential ski neighborhood considered entirely on-mountain in the Vail Valley. While the Bachelor Gulch ski trails are part of Beaver Creek Resort, they feel much more private and less traveled. It's easy for residents to head out for a few runs without a lot of fuss getting in and out of the resort.
Ski trails offer excellent hiking and biking during the summer and fall months, and the pristine golf club in neighboring Beaver Creek features challenging holes and expansive views to round out summertime fun.
Bachelor Gulch is perfect for the buyer looking for privacy and luxury. Bachelor Gulch real estate is mostly known for high-end single-family homes, but luxury condominiums and fractional units are available through the residence club at the Ritz-Carlton® Bachelor Gulch.

A few months before launching the Big Bag of Win, I was out testing it in urban environments, like a mens room. Notice how the bag rides "high and tight." That's to stablize it with the massive shoulder and chest strap.
Load the bag up with a Macbook Air, iPad, Nikon D7000, some bike tools, and you're rolling like this.
