U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Springfield Construction Company Subjected Worker to Crude, Obscene Verbal Abuse by Supervisor, Federal Agency Charges
SPRINGFIELD, Ky. – A Springfield, Ky., construction company violated federal law by subjecting a male employee to sexual harassment, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in a lawsuit it filed today.
According to the EEOC's suit (Civil Action No. #:09-cv-427-S in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Kentucky, Louisville Division), Hayden Brothers Contracting, Inc. allowed a male employee to be sexually harassed by his supervisor. The supervisor subjected the victim to constant, extremely obscene comments, sexual innuendos and propositions and implied physical threats, and abuse, the EEOC said. The harassment was so pervasive that the victim began to be afraid that he might be sexually assaulted by his male supervisor. The victim repeatedly complained about the treatment. At one point he was told, "This is a construction site; this kind of thing goes on all the time."
Such alleged conduct violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended. The EEOC filed suit after first attempting to reach a voluntary settlement.
"This employer utterly failed in its obligation to protect this employee from sexual harassment, as required by law, causing needless harm to him," said EEOC Indianapolis District Office Regional Attorney Laurie Young. "The EEOC is here to protect workers from such abuse in the workplace."
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on the agency's web site at www.eeoc.gov.

One of the most prominent theater companies in England has found itself under fire for its casting of a classic Chinese play. The Royal Shakespeare Co. in Stratford-upon-Avon is being criticized for casting just three actors of Asian descent in the ensemble cast of "The Orphan of Zhao," one of the most famous plays in Chinese history.
The RSC's production, directed by Gregory Doran and adapted by James Fenton, features a multicultural cast of 17 performers. Most of the principal characters -- including the title role -- will be played by non-Asian actors.
In recent days, the production has come under criticism on blogs and social-media sites, including a Tweet from playwright David Henry Hwang. Hwang wrote that the RSC staging puts an "Asian kid on poster, but casts Asian actors only as dogs & a maid."
Hwang also issued a joint statement with the Asian American Performers Action Coalition, in which they said that "the RSC seeks to exploit the public's growing interest in China; through its casting choices, the company reveals that its commitment to Asia is only skin-deep."
The RSC said on its Facebook page that the company is "always aiming to reflect the diverse population of the UK on our stages and we make considerable efforts to audition actors from all ethnic and cultural backgrounds."
The company said it "cast the best people available for the range of roles required." It said actors from the production are cross-cast in other productions this season in plays by Pushkin and Brecht.
"The Orphan of Zhao" is scheduled to begin performances Oct. 30.
The backlash at the RSC comes a few months after a similar casting controversy at the La Jolla Playhouse. In July, the company was criticized for its casting of the new musical "The Nightingale," based on the Hans Christian Andersen story and set in ancient China.
"The Nightingale," written by the Tony Award-winning "Spring Awakening" team of Duncan Sheik and Steve Sater, featured an ensemble cast of 12 actors, two of whom were of Asian descent.

Last week we celebrated Miles being home for six whole months. In so many ways that 1/2 year just flew by. And in other ways it just creeped by as the most agonizing time in my whole life.
For the last six months, I felt like I didn't know my head from my behind. All of that chaos resulted in me having to be medicated. Yep- I'm not afraid to admit it. My reaction to child number three (note I said my reaction, not my child) threw my life into such a tailspin I called and begged for antidepressants. And now that they've kicked in (I think I'm a kinder, gentler version of me!) and I've had some space to reflect, I think I'm ready to give a better assessment as to how our lives are going. (Oh,God- did you hear that... It's the fallout I'll probably now experience after just admitting to the world that I had to go on meds! Be nice and keep those mean comments to yourself, please!)
I'm going to be brutally honest and say that at the three, four, and five months marks, I wasn't sure if we were going to make it. Being rejected by my own son 92.4% of the time had eaten away at any shred of self esteem I had left. I felt like such a failure as a mother. I knew it was bad when I was trying to comb Miles' hair out and he was screaming and kicking like usual and Noah (age 3) walked by and said, "Mommy, I'm sorry that Miles doesn't like you." I was sorry too. I was sorry that I was taking out my constant rejection by Miles on my husband. I was sorry that Miles was so time consuming that I had very little left for my other children. I found that I just counted the hours down until I got to put Miles down for a nap and then counted down the hours again until I could put him to bed. I was feeling sorry for myself- but more than anything, I was MAD at myself. I am a mother. In my mind being a mother means loving your children unconditionally. I hated myself that my attitude about Miles was so dependent on him reciprocating that love. But folks, it is hard to keep up a relationship when the love only flows one way. I could reason with myself that the child has been through A LOT. I knew that he had every right to be distrustful of me. I knew that teaching a child how to be a part of a family would be hard work. But I never for one second thought about how that would make me feel. Just FYI- it felt like being hit in the heart by a bus- 20 times every day. Every time my son wanted a perfect stranger to hold him instead of me- BAM. Every time he would get hurt and would refuse to let me love and cuddle him- BAM. Every time he would act super sweet and cute in front of our family and make me look insane- BAM. For me, all the hurt in my heart just turned into bitter resentment. I'm not proud of that, but it's the truth.
And then New York happened. My trip to New York was so last minute. It was one last effort to get myself together. I got on that plane and for the first time in months, I just felt free. Maybe at just that moment, my antidepressants finally kicked in or something, but whatever it was- just having a little space felt sooooo good! I got in bed at night and actually made it through my prayers for the first time in a long time without falling asleep or losing focus. I prayed for my son. I prayed for myself. I prayed that something would happen to make my family feel whole again. I prayed that I would lose the anger I felt at Miles for the things that he could in no way control. I prayed that I would lose my expectations and just learn to live in the moment and learn to find the joy in raising my three bambinos again.
My plane landed back down in Kentucky and I braced myself. I thought that the fallout from Miles for my being gone for four days would be astronomical. But by some miracle- just the opposite happened. He hugged me. He loved on me. He said "mommy" in his cute Swahili accent a hundred times. He was nicer to his brothers and sisters. The violent behaviors just stopped. He was downright just likeable and lovable to the nth degree. He has relied on me. He has depended on me. He wants to hold my hand while we walk down the street. Leaving Miles for those four days turned out to be the most amazing lifesaver for our relationship. I think the boy actually missed me. And maybe when he had some space to breath he maybe just realized that being here and being loved and having a family is not so bad after all. I am not saying that the clouds parted and the angels started singing or anything, because he still has his moments. I also know that true healing is two steps forward and one step back. I am not naive enough to think that he is all fixed! But overall, there is light back in his eyes. And that has put light back in my eyes. And that put light back in my husband's eyes. And our little family seems to be back and running on all cylinders. Amazing. (Now maybe we can stop spending our life's savings on therapists!!!)
After going round and round with the state for months about Miles' age, he will finally get to start early intervention therapy next week. We've lost a lot of time trying to cut through the red tape, but we kept fighting for it and I can't wait to see how he blossoms with the private therapy for five hours a week. He will even be getting his own psychologist. This mama is pumped about that!
He is doing so much better in the last several weeks with trying to communicate. We stopped letting him communicate with grunts and screaming. He knows the words and signs for eat and drink. So we knew that if he was hungry he had the ability to communicate that to us effectively- no excuses. I finally had to get hard core. When he would start standing at the counter and screaming and pointing and going nuts- despite the fact that I knew what he wanted- I refused to give him a snack until he would effectively communicate with words or signs what he wanted. I would completely ignore the undesirable behavior. At first it seemed cruel to me, but I realized that Miles was thriving on keeping me in a state of chaos. When I got firm and made it clear that he could not rule by terror, it was amazing how quickly the child learned to say "eat" when he hungry instead of yelling.
We did the same thing with discipline. For most adopted children, "time outs" make them feel ostracised and like they are being excluded from the family. That is not at all what we wanted to convey to Miles, but at the same time, the boy needed to know that he could not try to beat up his siblings. For months, whenever Miles got violent, I would get down on his level, hold his arms down and calmly explain about how we don't hurt other people. That was stupid, stupid, stupid! All that Miles got from that was- "if I get a pan out of the cabinet and I beat my brother over the head with it, my mom will pay attention to me! She will look at me and she will touch me and I will get all kinds of attention! I'm going to keep doing this!" I am not sure why that didn't click sooner! We set up the playpen in the middle of the living room and when Miles would get violent, I picked him up backwards so that we weren't even looking at each other. I didn't say a word to him. He got no attention from me. I just placed him in the playpen and walked away. He was in the same room as everyone (so that he was still a part of our family) but he got no positive reinforcement for the behavior. Amazingly- this tactic only took 3 days of doing until 95% of the violence stopped in our home.
We are still dealing with the trauma triggers, but the attachment aspect of this crazy journey is getting better every single day. Miles is truly beginning thrive and we are starting to find our groove as a family of five. Miles is becoming quite the jokester. He's still the entertainer in every crowd. He is still the flirt in a room full of women- teenage girls are his specialty.
That boy is going to do amazing things. I just know it. I see his huge smile full of those gleaming white teeth and I am just so grateful for him- just as he is; trauma, hurt, and all. On his six month's home anniversary, I wrote as my facebook status, "Happy 6 months home, Miles Dieudonne. We are so glad you are part of our family." It felt so good to be able to write that and mean it. It feels so good that for the last month Miles wants me around. It feels so good that he wants to hug me and that he needs me. From the first moment I saw him, I knew that he was meant to be my child. But it feels SO good to finally feel like he is my child. And you know what? I think he finally feels like he is my child.
Thank you, Jesus, that even though many people, including me, have failed my child- they have not extinguished the desires in his heart to love and be loved. Thank you for the reminder that even though I fail you miserably over and over again, that you do not give up on me. Thank you for showing me again what unconditional love is all about. Amen.

A 'less radical' overhaul Glasgow's George Square, designed by the council's in-house team, is to start on site today (1 July)
The £500,000 scheme - effectively a resurfacing of the much-maligned red tarmac and the creation of more grassy areas - was drawn up as a replacement for the £15 million competition-winning vision by John McAslan + Partners which was ditched back in January in controversial circumstances.
Although McAslan's concept was chosen by the judges as the victor of the international contest, the council immediately threw out the designs with fingers being pointed at Glasgow City Council leader Gordon Matheson for derailing the process who allegedly wanted another scheme to win.
The authority has promised the first phase of the in-house designed alternative, featuring a grey epoxy resin, will be completed before next year's Commonwealth Games in 2014.
Approved by the council earlier this month, the less adventurous facelift will begin with the planting of two new grass beds and the installation of new lighting. A second phase, which the council maintains will bring the total spend on the landmark square up to the £15 million originally earmarked, will start after the Games.
Previous story (AJ 18.03.2013)
Explosive RIAS report lifts lid on George Square debacle
A leaked report by RIAS points the finger at Glasgow City Council leader Gordon Matheson for derailing the international contest to redesign George Square
The warts-and-all document also claims that the aborted process, which saw John McAslan + Partners announced as the winner in January before the plug being pulled on the scheme, has cost almost £300,000 in private and public investment.
According to the report, drawn up primarily by RIAS secretary and judge Neil Baxter, the botched competition had 'brought the judges, the profession, the Incorporation and the City of Glasgow into significant disrepute.'
Matheson is accused of torpedoing the process having, allegedly, already decided which practice he wanted to redesign the square - scheme six, designed by Burns + Nice, also voted the public's favourite in an online poll.
The report reads: '[From] his initial comments at the first judges meeting onwards, it appears that, for whatever reason, Councillor Matheson had selected his own winner at the outset and reasoning by a very experienced group of judges did not persuade him otherwise. His abandonment of the judging process at the conclusion of the Wednesday meeting led to much negative press. Unfortunately because they were still involved in a confidential process and they are all consummate professionals, the judges were unable to give their side of the story.'
Intriguingly the RIAS document outlines how the judges scored the six finalists vying for the £15 million job, showing how McAslan's scheme had emerged as the group's favourite while Matheson had 'stuck to his guns' and given full marks for his favourite and very low scores for all the other submissions (see detail at bottom).
The document also reveals the equivalent architectural design fees wasted by the council - approximately £95,000 in time, fees and honoraria - through the PQQ process.
It reads: 'The most substantial cost which has not been comprehended in all of this is the very significant abortive costs of all of those who submitted a PQQ in the first instance and the six practices which worked through the Christmas period to produce very complex and highly finished submissions in the competition. Given that there were 35 submissions to the PQQ and that these could reasonably be quantified at costing at least £2,000 of senior staff time in all cases, that gives a total of £70,000.
'The six shortlisted entries would have cost, in time and direct outlays, at least £25,000 each.'

The council refused to comment on the allegations, however it has released new, 'less radical' designs for the revamp of George Square - effectively a £500,000 resurfacing of the much-maligned red tarmac and the creation of more grassy areas. The authority has promised this cheaper, in-house designed alternative, featuring a grey epoxy resin, will be completed before next year's Commonwealth Games.
Meanwhile it has emerged that both the RIAS and Glasgow's only Conservative councillor David Meikle have asked for public spending watchdog Audit Scotland to investigate the disastrous process.
Report extract - the scoring:
'After the lengthy exposition on the interview responses there was a short break. Thereafter the RIAS scoring forms were distributed by Neil Baxter. David Mackay suggested that, while a maximum of 30 per cent was allowable under each of the three agreed criteria, it would focus the process if the judges gave scores of 0, 10, 20 or 30 under each criterion. This would also facilitate the clear differentiation between the ranking of each submission. This procedure was agreed and adopted.
Predictably, when the judging sheets were submitted, the judge's scores indicated a spread of predominantly 10s and 20s with a few 0s and very few 30s under each heading. Councillor Matheson, despite the reasoning of his co-judges and the weight of evidence from the interview
process, stuck to his guns and gave full marks to scheme no. 6 and marks varying between 0 and 10 on all the criteria for all other entries. At the conclusion of this process, scheme no. 2 emerged as well ahead of the pack. At this stage, scheme no. 6 stood in fifth position.
What was required of the judging process was that the judges should reach a consensus. Unanimity was not required, simply that all the judges would sign off on the favoured scheme. It was suggested at this juncture that signing off on scheme no. 2 seemed appropriate. However Councillor Matheson, who had been increasingly agitated during the course of the day, indicated at this point that he had to leave as a major issue requiring his urgent attention had arisen at the Council Chambers. He then departed, rendering the judging process inconclusive.
On the Monday afternoon, the judges re-convened with David Mackay joining them by telephone from Bristol where he was undertaking work on behalf of the new Mayor. The scorings from the previous Wednesday were reviewed and it was concluded that scheme no. 2 was the clear winner in the quality assessment process. All of the judges agreed to sign off this conclusion which allowed for the opening of the envelopes revealing the identity of competitors and their financial bids. After the scores were adjusted, comprehending the financial bids, scheme no. 2 was still well ahead and scheme no. 6 had risen to no. 4 in the rankings.
There was a general sense of relief on the part of the judges and the various others present that a satisfactory conclusion had been reached. However, at this point, Councillor Matheson indicated that his administration would not be proceeding further with any of the designs submitted through the competition process.noraria to the six shortlisted competitors are subtracted from the total, the abortive cost of the competition is significantly more than £300,000 of public and private investment.
As the above report demonstrates, Glasgow City Council established an appropriate and auditable process, ultimately fully compliant with European Legislation and engaged the Royal Incorporation to work with them to ensure that fairness was observed and that the competition was properly operated within the complex legislation governing such procedures. The competition proceeded to a proper conclusion. The subsequent decision to breach the promise inherent in any such process, albeit arguing that this was in the "public interest", resulted in a very significant waste of public and private resources. This competition brought the judges, the profession, the Incorporation and the City of Glasgow into significant disrepute.
Work to start on 'less radical' George Sq revamp
Readers' comments (5)
The whole affair is all the more grubby when you realise that anyone walking around Glasgow city centre rapidly becomes aware that the fine Caithness flag paving in the pedestrianised streets isn't being cared for, and that in some streets the pavements are in such an appalling state that they're wheelchair aggressive and have clearly been neglected for decades.
Pedestrians have been further abused in recent years by the arrival of large on-pavement sponsored information / advertising panels that in many places block more than half the pavement width, and create massive and dangerous obstructions to pedestrian visibility.
In this context, resurfacing George Square is akin to Nero fiddling while Rome burns.
Explosive right enough, well done RIAS..........wonder what the major issue was that arose during the judging and left the leader of the council increasingly agitated, the competition a shambles and Glasgow an international laughing stock?
'Leaked' is a rather over dramatic way of describing a document that was circulated by link to all RIAS members via a regular emailed newsletter?
But there are no winners here.
A profession so desperate it will regularly give away its expertise virtually free in competitions condoned by its professional bodies; in the hope of negotiating a desultory fee for a project with a wholly inadequate budget.
Or the OJEU process itself? Fair playing field? Much fairer perhaps for some of the practices that Glasgow City Council phoned, invited to submit and subsequently shortlisted?
Sympathies for JMP, but honestly you're probably better off out of it.
Good story, Waitey.
Who designed that? A quantity surveyor perhaps!

Statement on Workforce Reductions at Pratt & Whitney
Today Pratt & Whitney is reducing its salaried workforce by approximately 400 positions company-wide, including approximately 200 positions in Connecticut, effective immediately. While the company is very pleased with the number of employees who participated in its recent voluntary separation program, these further reductions are necessary. The company will support affected employees with severance pay, outplacement, continuation of group insurance and Employee Scholar Program benefits, and other services and benefits.
Pratt & Whitney continuously assesses staffing levels to ensure they are in line with current business and economic conditions. When necessary, we make staffing adjustments required to keep our cost structure competitive. Our long-term outlook is very bright; however, to secure this bright future we must address some near-term challenges.
Taking necessary actions to manage our cost structure, while continuing to invest in new programs, positions Pratt & Whitney for the long term and ensures a strong future for the company, our employees, customers and shareowners.

Setting up, monitoring and managing projects for an organization is a privilege as well as a major challenge that can only be accomplished by individuals who are well-organized, diligent, reactive and stress-tolerant.
Project management is the execution of a project from start to finish. When project management involves a whole series of projects that share a common goal, it is referred to as program management.
Project managers can be hired in all sectors of activity. People wishing to pursue a career in project management must start by choosing a field that interests them, gain a certain amount of professional experience and then specialize in project management in their chosen field.
Juniors usually begin their career as project coordinators and then, after acquiring experience, go on to become project leaders or managers.
Project management is a promising market and will remain so for some time to come because the demand for projects responds to market trends and, as a general rule, projects are becoming increasingly central to companies.

I'm not a huge walnut fan... except when they are coated in caramelized goodness or in banana bread. I am a firm believer in not limiting yourself to the norm- so, I once made this bread with peanuts. On Mike's morning drive to work he called me (having left the house with a slice to have on the way to work...) :
Mike, 'are there peanuts in this?'
Me, 'Yes.'
Mike, 'In banana bread? Peanuts in banana bread?'
Me, 'Yes. I don't like walnuts, I didn't have any pecans, so I used peanuts.'
Mike, 'um... ok. it's good. i guess. just strange to have peanuts in banana bread. right?'
Here's the recipe with 'nuts' as an ingredient... go ahead, use whatever kind you want!
Loaf Pan & Parchment Paper (and my favorite baking supplies) available here >
Banana Nut Bread
with whipped honey butter
4 overripe bananas
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup nuts, finely chopped
Peel the bananas. Mash them roughly with a fork - leaving some chunky pieces for texture. Place half of them in a KitchenAid fitted with the whisk attachment. Set aside the other half of the bananas.
Add sugar to the KitchenAid, whip them together for 3 minutes until a frothy mixture forms. Add butter, eggs and vanilla. Mix together until combined. Add flour, soda, salt, remaining bananas and 1/3 cup of nuts. Stir until just combined. Do not over mix.
Pour into a greased and floured (or sprayed) loaf pan. Sprinkle the remaining nuts on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes to 1 hour.
Wrap the bread in parchment paper, add a little Whipped Honey Butter and you have a great gift! Here are the step-by-step directions for creating the Breakfast Basket Gift.
Or... try the muffin version!

So this seemed pretty straight forward at first, but then I wasnt too sure about gravity forces...
- centerfuge
- 2 samples
- 1 sample is 1gram heavier than the other
- centerfuge at top speed is exerting 20000 gravitys of force on the samples
What kind of weight / ballast is needed to keep the centerfuge from wobbling off the table?
Id imagine this is a linear equation ... So if i could get the equation that would be TOPS!
Ballast should be placed on 4 corners on the outside of the sample

Brown calls new rules on jewelry dealers 'safety theater'
But City Council passes regulations
Houston City Council on Wednesday passed new rules on precious metals dealers despite a lengthy attempt to water down the ordinance by Councilwoman Helena Brown, who called it "safety theater" that would burden businesses and invade jewelry sellers' privacy.
Officers in the Houston Police Department's precious metals unit said reputable dealers already implement many of the new rules but said the ordinance - which requires a photograph and thumbprint of each seller and mandates dealers enter transactions into an online database - will help them catch crooks and recover stolen goods.
Brown sought to remove criminal penalties for violating the ordinance, to allow dealers more flexibility in when and how to report transactions and to scrap the rule requiring sellers to have a photo and thumbprint taken. Each amendment was easily defeated.
"Why even ask the legal, law-abiding people to submit to this? It's not going to prevent crime and it's not going to solve any crimes," Brown said. "It's ludicrous. We've gone way beyond what our Founding Fathers envisioned for this nation."
She paraphrased a quotation, which she attributed to Thomas Jefferson, saying those who would give up liberty for safety deserve neither.
Officers Rick Barajas and Todd Harris, of HPD's precious metals unit, said they have spent a year on the ordinance, visiting 250 gold dealers and holding several stakeholder meetings. HPD formed the unit after noticing 4,800 burglaries of jewelry valued at more than $10,000 between July 2010 and June 2011; monetary losses in jewelry-related crimes doubled from 2007 to 2011 as prices rose, along with thieves' interest.
One exchange between Brown and the officers got testy, and Brown later buttonholed Harris outside the chamber, but other council members were on board. Councilman Al Hoang said he had planned to vote against the new rules but was swayed by the officers' explanations.
Mayor Annise Parker did not weigh in at length during Brown's efforts, but did make an offhand comment.
"And for the record," she said, "it was a Benjamin Franklin quote."

|Condition or disease
|Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
|Device: Endovascular AAA repair
In the US, abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are found in 4-8% of older men and 0.5-1.5% of older women, resulting in 30,000-40,000 elective procedures and 1,400 peri-operative deaths. The most significant complication of AAA is an aneurysm sac rupture from which more than 15,000 patients die annually and is the 15th leading cause of death in elderly between 60 to 85 years of age . In Japan, it is estimated that approximately 14,000 endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) and open surgical repair cases were performed in the year 2010 .
Abdominal aortic aneurysms can be treated three ways: (1) Medical management; (2) Open surgical repair; and (3) Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). EVAR has emerged as an alternative treatment of AAA for most patients. It is less invasive than open repair and carries lower rates of early mortality and morbidity . It has also extended treatment options to patients who cannot undergo conventional surgical procedures due to a high operative risk. As EVAR technology evolves, it allows treatment of AAA with increasing complexity of the aortic neck and access vessels.
The InCraft ®AAA Stent Graft System is designed for endovascular repair of infrarenal AAAs with complex aortic anatomies. This stent-graft system utilizes nitinol stent and polyester graft technology in an ultra-low profile delivery system, which assists the physician in deploying the device in a controlled, consistent, and precise manner within the aortic neck and iliac arteries. By isolating the aneurysmal sac, the system provides an alternative blood flow path to relieve pressure on the arterial vessel walls and minimize aneurysm growth and the potential for aneurysm sac rupture.

Should I register a .COM or a .CA domain?
Both, actually. Registering domain names with different extensions, or even additional names, can help you protect your personal or business identity, brand, ideas and trademarks.
Why should I register my .CA with Netfirms?
So you can take advantage of the great savings and features available with us. After all, we are the biggest .CA registrar in the world! If you need more convincing, check out our comparison chart.
What are the requirements for registering a .CA domain name?
Canadian Legal Status and CIRA Agreement are required when registering a .ca domain. While you are registering a .ca domain you will be prompted to agree to abide by the CIRA (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) agreement shown on the domain registration page.
How do I make Netfirms my .CA registrar?
If your .CA domain name has been registered or recently renewed (for 30 days or more), you can simply login through the Netfirms Control Panel. (Just click Domains and follow the prompts.) You'll need to ensure that your email for admin contact is current for your .CA domain, as you are required to confirm the transfer via email.
I searched for a domain name yesterday and it was available. Today, it says it's taken. Is that possible?
Unfortunately, yes. Good domain names get snatched up quickly. That's why it's wise to register one you like as soon as you find out it's available.
Will my domain name be live on the Internet right away?
Your domain can be live on the Internet in just minutes. (Note: External networks require a few hours for your domain to be live worldwide.) When you purchase your domain name, our systems send your name to the registry so your order is processed right away.
You can also get to work immediately. Our system automatically sets you up with your own Netfirms account and access to the Control Panel, where you can manage your domain settings, and setup your web page and email accounts.
Can I register multiple domain names at the same time?
Yes. You can put multiple names on the same order. Simply search for your initial name and then search again to add others.
Do my domains renew automatically?
We renew domains automatically at the end of your term. Please ensure your credit card on record is active. You can manage domain renewal and update credit card records in the control panel.
Can I start building a website when I register my domain?
With each new domain, you can put up a basic 3-page website with our Sitebuilder tool.
Do I receive any e-mail accounts with my domain name?
Yes, each domain registration includes 1 free e-mail account. You can check email by logging into your Netfirms webmail by visiting http://webmail.netfirms.com or http://webmail.yourdomain.com (where yourdomain.com is your Netfirms registered domain) or by setting up mail forwarding to your existing e-mail. If you wish to use Outlook or another POP e-mail/client, you can easily do so as well.
*The promotional price is for the first term only and renews at the regular rate.

The FieldTurf contribution will allow 1,000 youth the opportunity to experience the excitement of Cougar Athletics while stressing the importance of education.
'FieldTurf was a company we previously had done business with and I knew their experience in terms of giving back to schools where their turf has been installed,' Oliver said. 'I felt it was a natural progression to call FieldTurf President John Gilman and he was glad to help this worthwhile program.'
The purpose of the grant program is to have companies and individuals donate tickets to WSU Athletics. The tickets in turn will be given to underprivileged youth who may not otherwise have the opportunity to attend a university sporting event, or will be utilized as an educational incentive by local schools.
The program is part of Washington State University Athletics goal to connect with Eastern Washington communities while offering positive role models and activities for local youth.
DONOR REWARDS: Individuals and companies donating tickets will receive recognition for being a member of the Cougar Athletics Ticket Grant Program. Your name and/or company logo will be printed on ticket vouchers, informational letters and other forms of correspondence that will go out to all children and organizations who will benefit from the Ticket Grant Program, thanking you for making this program possible.
Please join us in making this new program a success. The youth you help will enjoy the experience of a lifetime while visiting WSU.
JUST A REMINDER: Contributions that neither directly nor indirectly result in the receipt of a benefit may be fully deductible for federal income tax purposes. Donors should consult with their tax advisor for more specific information.
HOW TO BECOME INVOLVED: Send your name, address and phone number along with your donation of $5 per ticket to: WSU Ticket Grant Program, Attention: Dawn Keen, Bohler Addition 173, P.O. Box 646102, Pullman, WA 99164.

Chapter One: Invitation to Sociology Peter L. Berger Motivated by an intense desire to know what is "really happening," what goes on "behind the scenes," sociologists study almost every aspect of life in society. As Berger indicates, nothing is too sacred or too profane to be spared the sociologist's scrutiny. But when you penetrate the surface and peer behind the masks that individuals and organizations wear, you find a reality quite unlike the one that is so carefully devised and, just as carefully, put forward for public consumption. This changed angle of vision, however, poses a danger. Once you have peered behind the scenes and viewed life in a new light, it is nearly impossible to revert to complacent assumptions. The old, familiar, and so very comfortable ways of looking at life become upset when your angle of vision changes. This potential of sociology is also part of its attraction. The sociologist (that is, the one we would really like to invite to our game) is a person intensively, endlessly, shamelessly interested in the doings of men.* His natural habitat is all the human gathering places of the world, wherever men come together. The sociologist may be interested in many other things. But his consuming interest remains in the world of men, their institutions, their history, their passions. And since he is interested in men, nothing that men do can be altogether tedious for him. He will naturally be interested in the events that engage men's ultimate beliefs, their moments of tragedy and grandeur and ecstasy. But he will also be fascinated by the commonplace, the everyday. He will know reverence, but this reverence will not prevent him from wanting to see and to understand. He may sometimes feel revulsion or contempt. But this also will not deter him from wanting to have his questions answered. The sociologist, in his quest for understanding, moves through the world of men without respect for the usual lines of demarcation. Nobility and degradation, power and obscurity, intelligence and folly -- these are equally interesting to him, however unequal they may be in his personal values or tastes. Thus his questions may lead him to all possible levels of society, the best and the least known places, the most respected and the most despised. And, if he is a good sociologist, he will find himself in all these places because his own questions have so taken possession of him that he has little choice but to seek for answers. It would be possible to say the same things in a lower key. We could say that the sociologist, but for the grace of his academic title, is the man who must listen to gossip despite himself, who is tempted to look through keyholes, to read other people's mail, to open cabinets. Before some otherwise unoccupied psychologist sets out now to construct an aptitude test for sociologists on the basis of sublimated voyeurism, let us quickly say that we are speaking merely by way of analogy. Perhaps some little boys consumed with curiosity to watch their maiden aunts in the bathroom later become inveterate sociologists. This is quite uninteresting. What interests us is the curiosity that grips any sociologist in front of a closed door behind which there are human voices. If he is a good sociologist he will want to open that door, to understand these voices. Behind each closed door he will anticipate some new facet of human life not yet perceived and understood. The sociologist will occupy himself with matters that others regard as too sacred or as too distasteful for dispassionate investigation. He will find rewarding the company of priests or of prostitutes, depending not on his personal preferences but on the questions he happens to be asking at the moment. He will also concern himself with matters that others may find much too boring. He will be interested in the human interaction that goes with warfare oJames M.

Create and manage terms in a term set
You can use the Term Store management tool to create terms in a term set, or manage a term such as copy it or move it. If you have many terms that you want to add, it might be more practical to import all the terms in the term set instead of adding the terms individually. For information about how to import terms, see Import term sets.
To create and manage terms in the Term Store management tool, you must be a Contributor, a Group Manager, or a Term Store Administrator.
To create a term in a term set, follow these steps
If you are adding a term to a local term set, you must start this procedure from the site to which the term set belongs. If you are updating a global term set, you can open the Term Store management tool from any site.
Open the Term Store management tool. To learn how, see Open the Term Store management tool.
In the tree-view pane, expand the groups to find the term set to which you want to add a term.
Point to the term set where you want to add a term, select the arrow that appears, and then select Create Term.
Type the name that you want to use as the default label for the newly created term in the tree view.
In the Properties pane, specify the following information about the new term:
Available for tagging Select the check box to make this term available for tagging. If you clear the check box, the term is visible but disabled in the tagging tools.
Language Select the language for this label for the term.
Description Type a description to help users understand how to apply this term, or to differentiate it from similar terms.
Default Label Enter the word or phrase that you want to use as the default label for the term in this language.
Other Labels Enter any synonyms for this term. To add multiple synonyms, type the first synonym and then press ENTER to add more lines.
Take another action with terms
There are several actions that you can take on terms that will help you build and manage term sets as the business needs of your organization evolve.
To take any of the following actions, first Open the Term Store management tool, and then point to the term that you want to use for the action.
Copy a term
- Select Copy Term The name of the new term is Copy of <original term name>. No child terms for the source term are copied.
Reuse a term
Select Reuse Terms.
In the Term Reuse dialog box, expand the groups and term sets to find the term that you want to reuse under your selected parent term.
Select the term and then select OK.
Pin term with children
When you pin a term with children, you reuse the term in a different security group.
Select Pin term with children.
In the Reuse and Pin Term: Select a Source dialog box, expand the groups and term sets.
Select the term that you want to reuse and pin as a child of the selected term or term set.
Check or clear Block users from using this keyword outside the context of its new Term Set destination.
Select OK.
Merge a term with another
Select Merge Term.
In the Term Merge dialog box, expand the term set that contains the term with which you want to merge you selected term.
Select the target term.
Select OK.
Deprecate a term
- Select Deprecate Term This action makes any instances of this term in any term set to which it belongs unavailable for tagging. Any child terms of the term are not deprecated.
Move a term
Select Move Term.
In the Term Move dialog box, expand the groups or term sets to find where you want to move the term.
Select the target term set or term.
Select OK.
Delete a term
Select Delete Term.
Select OK.
This action deletes the term and its child terms. If this term is a source term that other locations reuse, it is put in the Orphaned Terms term set in the System group.

what is happening at the Onion?
Crocodile Bites Off Bush's Arm
Bush Tumbles Wildly Down Washington Monument Staircase
Not only are these both about Bush, but they are both about him getting hurt, and were released only a few days apart. What the fuck? Is it just that they want to get all their Bush jokes in before he leaves office (60 days and counting, bitches!) ? Still, you'd think they'd have better stuff than this. What do you all think?
Also, remember when I complained about Andy Rooney? I sure as heck do. The Onion has apparently also noticed this! I like their version better.
On a related note: Did anyone else notice something awfully similar between the newest Truck Bearing Kibble and a certain Perry Bible Fellowship? Just saying.

I think, and I could be wrong about this, but I think it's going to be a running gag before he goes out of office just to have a bunch of stories where horrible things happen to him. I don't know. It weirded me out too.ReplyDelete
Running jokes like that are very, very un-Onionesque. I'm not sure I've ever read anything along those lines in actual news stories (There are recurring features and columnists, but that's not the same as their actual news stories).ReplyDelete
Actually though if that's what happens it could be funny. I think it'll take a few more stories but if every few days it's like "Bush cuts off finger while cutting turkey at thanksgiving" and stuff that could work. Maybe.
- AnonymousNovember 23, 2008 at 5:17 PM
I saw that too and wondered... after some thought, I'm pretty sure that the jokes are that Bush is now so irrelevant that these stories merit only a tiny blurb?ReplyDelete
Bush's irrelevance is best expressed in that story about him wanting to make Obama president NOW. The article ends with, "he shuffled aimlessly back into the White House." That image tickles me.ReplyDelete
Thomas, from the life mimics comedy file: Gail Collins, a New York Times columnist, writes that Bush should resign now and let Obama take over asap.ReplyDelete

MEMS Applications
New applications using MEMS are being constantly developed and becoming common-place in our everyday lives. The number of MEMS types and their applications is growing and consumer, mobile and computer applications raise the challenge of manufacturing MEMS in high-volume, which X-FAB MEMS Foundry addresses with its 200mm and 150mm wafer facilities.
Hundreds of products in electronic stores are using MEMS and the list grows longer every day. Mobile phones, tablet PCs, laptops, digital still cameras, camcorders, web cameras, MP3 players, navigation systems, headphones, hands-free headsets, games, toys, washing machines, refrigerators and dishwashers are all using MEMS components.
For instance, smart phones are rich in MEMS with accelerometers and gyroscopes being used for screen orientation detection and enhanced navigation, silicon microphones for better audio performance, reliability and the possibility of simpler manufacturing techniques. Pressure sensors are playing an increasing role in 3D navigation and various RF MEMS are used as oscillators, switches, BAW filters and variable capacitors.
The consumer, mobile and computer use of MEMS will continue to expand rapidly as applications currently found only in high-end products are destined to become standard features in all devices.
Since the original Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (MAPS) the use of MEMS in cars has become not only desirable but now essential as they help improve engine efficiency to meet emissions regulations and provide critical safety information on tire pressure and vehicle stability.
Infra-red imaging bolometers are used for enhanced camera imaging in cars and applications are increasing from night-vision for security and defense to thermal imaging of buildings for energy saving studies.
Biomedical MEMS applications for drug delivery, chemical analysis, blood pressure and body-temperature monitoring are finding uses in laboratories, hospitals and in patient's homes.

I've made promises to some people to get up some pictures of the recent Blue Havana II herf, but I just haven't had the time. The road trip approaches, and I'm scrambling to get ready for that and keep up with all my obligations (blog-ligations?). But good news! Jim has already uploaded his gallery of herf pictures, so I'm sorta off the hook. (At some point I will definitely upload the pictures to my online photo galleries, I'm just not sure when.)
Blue Havana himself, DiscDog, CgarDan and Shelby07 at the Blue Havana II herf
By all accounts the herf was a success and a great deal of fun. Relying heavily on Jim's pictures, I think we had a total attendance of 15 or 16 people, with ten of them participating in the box pass. His innovative live "Twice Around the Block Pass" was like Christmas in August for the attendees. I don't think anybody walked away without a treat. (And if you did, it was your own fault, you had two shots at the box!) If you'd like to see how it went down, you can find the complete list of puts and takes, as well as the original box contents on this thread at CigarLive.
Though it was billed as a Camacho "cigar tasting", last night I joined DiscDog (Every board known to man and a few besides), NNexus (CigarLive) and Justin (Is he on the board yet?) again for what was basically another herf at Highland Cigar Company. A little foolishly, I didn't bother to bring a supply of cigars along, assuming that there'd be a sample cigar or two at a cigar tasting. I was wrong, at this event, you only get a taste of what you buy. (Of course there was a buy-3-get-a-cigar-of-lesser-value-free deal.) Which, if you think about it, is a bad idea. How on earth would somebody new to Camacho know what to buy? The Triple Maduro is still pretty new, do you really want to buy three to find out if you like it? Unless you're selling dog rockets and you know it, you only stand to benefit by giving out a freebie or two.
Compare this to the Oliva Serie V event I blogged about a while back. There was a lot of buzz about this cigar, but a lot of words of caution also regarding it's potency also. Allowing people to try it before they buy it, has resulted in them selling their entire stock out at each event. Heck, I wasn't planning on buying any, but I walked out of there with all the double robustos they had left! And I know a few people who were initially intimidated by the cigar left the event with a handful and a big smile on their face.
The badness of the no-sample plan is magnified by offending a true connoisseur and cigar board veteran like DiscDog. His opinion of a cigar may affect as much as thousands of dollars in sales. Rumored to have the most splendiferous cigar collection in the state of Georgia (I should know, I'm actively spreading the rumor), he not only didn't buy a Camacho that night, he didn't even smoke one of his own. Instead he broke out one of the finest, most exotic cigars any of us had seen in a very long time: A Partagas Culebra, constructed of three, full-sided churchill cigars intertwined.
For a cigar that looks a lot like you're burning Dilbert's tie when smoked, it had fantastic construction, easily sporting a two inch ash that even held on even through the bends of the cigar. (Keep an eye on NNexus' signature on CigarLive, you might get to see what I'm talking about.) I had a puff or two off one of the curly beasts and it had a great smooth flavor with an subtle edge-of-the-tongue spice and a sweetness that built up as the cigar smoked. (Actually, I can't verify the sweetness, the Camacho Select I was smoking made it impossible for me to tell in the second sample.)
You never saw a happier group of herfers. Did I say "happier"? I meant higher. Those guys were buzzing something fierce by the time the rounded the first bend. Man, I really wish I hadn't forgotten my camera.
OK, I'm off. The next post you read is likely to be from the road, somewhere between here and Portland, Oregon.

RKSport Ram Air Hood
Reviewed By Scott's C (Columbus, OH) Reviewed for a 2012 Chevy Corvette —3/28/2014 4:42 PM
Just had a chance today to take my hood out of box and try fitting it on my car. The craftsmanship is great with no defects. I think it'll look great on my 2012 corvette. What I like about the hood is that the scoop is not raised real high. It's going to make a show stopping addition to my car.
