Register true

Register true is a term used in the publishing and printing industry. It refers to the exact vertical alignment of lines in back-to-back pages in a book. For facing pages in a page spread, ie., for the even and odd pages when the book is laid spread out, being register true helps with readability. For pages which are on opposite sides of the same paper sheet, being register true helps with preventing lines from the opposite side showing through between the gaps on the line on the current page. Especially when the paper used is semi transparent.

When formatting books with software aid, the easiest way to ensure being register true is to make sure all vertical spaces, between lines and around headings or figures or tables, is an exact integer multiple of the normal inter-line spacing (also called leading).

Strategens


This is a new card game that I made up. There are no sources because I made it up. I will display the rule sheet, i created, below.

Strategens


Objective: Get rid of all your cards before any one else

Players: 2 OR 4 (If there are 4 players, then the first person to have no cards left is the winner. The neckst player to get rid of their cards is second and the last player to get rid of their cards get's third. The person still left in the game loses at life and gets no form of recognition. The game ends after first, second, and third places have been given out. If there are only 2 players then when one person gets rid of their cards the game is over then and their and the person with the cards loses at life as well.

Set Up: 2 players: The deck is divided into red cards and black cards. One player gets the black cards. The other get the red cards. The decks are both shuffled and placed in front of the players.

           4 players: The deck is divided into each invidual suit. Each player gets one of the suits. They are placed in front of each player after they have been shuffled.

Gameplay: You draw until you have 5 cards every turn. You must play a card every turn. You can place a maximum of 2 face cards (jack, queen, king, ace), a maximum of 3 common cards (everything else except the joker), or a maximum of one joker every turn. The points are added up. Whoever has more points, gives the cards played and the cards in their hand to the loser of the turn. The cards are placed in the loser's side deck (right next to the main deck. If 4 players are playing then the one with the lowest points gets the cards in everyone else's hands and the cards played on the field.

Strategens: Before you play your cards for the turn, you may place one card on the top or bottom of the deck. Strategens are helpful because it saves a card that you want, for future use.

Ties: If there is a tie that results in no losers for the round then the all the cards in every players hand and the cards that were played for the turn get placed into the middle. Another round is played until there is a loser. The loser gets the cards in the middle and they are placed in the side deck.

2-Faced: If you have 2 face cards with a similar point value, then you my add on to the total of your points played that round by half of the total it would be without the bonus. for example; a queen and a queen results in a 24 without the bonus. But then you add to that total by half and you get 36 points.

Triple Decker: If you have 3 common cards of the same point value, then you add on to the total by a third instead of a half as the 2-Faced section states.

  • At any time you may place less than 3 common cards and less than 2 face cards. You cannot play face cards and common cards together.

Jokers: Jokers are only for 2 player matches and are optional. They increase the intensity of the game. If you play the joker, then you automatically win the round and your hand and the joker goes to the losers side deck. If jokers tie, follow the rulers states in the Ties Section. There is a black and red joker. Black joker goes in the black deck and the Red joker goes in the red deck.

Rank: The cards state the amount of points they are worth. For face cards, Jack is 11 points, Queen is 12, King is 13, and Ace is 14. A joker defaults to a win for the round. It would be a 15 in theory but its not. You can make the joker a 15 if you think the joker is too cheap. It can still only be played by itself.

Side Deck: The cards you get if you lose are placed here. When your main deck runs out, you shuffle the side deck and if you need to, draw until you have 5 cards.

Not Enough Cards?: If you can't draw up to five than that sucks for you. You do not win. You simply do not have 5 cards.

Winning the Game: In order to win, the turn must be over and you may not have any cards in your deck, side deck, or hand.

Quantum Theory

The idea that light is some kind of wave motion explains reflection, the change in direction, scattering, the bending or spreading out of waves, interference, and polarization in every detail. There can be little doubt about the wave nature of light and all other electromagnetic radiations. “What did Max Planck discover? He found out that matter absorbed heat and radiated light discontinuously…” (Moring, 149). In 1900, Max Planck, a German physicist found that waves do not tell the whole story. He was trying to explain how a hot object gives off radiation. In this, he found it necessary to assume radiation is sent out in little bundles, or packets, instead of in a steady stream. “To understand the quanta, imagine that you have a candy bar. This candy bar can represent energy at any frequency. You have to follow these two rules: 1. when you cut up the candy bar, it has to be divided into equal pieces with nothing left over. 2. The higher you make the energy or frequency, the fewer chunks you can cut the bar into. Following these rules, if the frequency is made higher, the energy candy bar would have to be cut up into larger pieces. That means fewer chunks are available. This means that the higher frequency waves are not produced in more abundance, because it takes less energy to produce them for any given amount energy. That’s why there are more light waves produced in the lower frequencies.” (Moring, 149-150). Each flash of energy is called Quantum (plural: quanta), and the idea suggested by Planck has now become known as the quantum theory. A single quantum of radiation energy is so small that the energy stream really seems to be steady. For example, even from such a weak source as starlight about 60, 000, 000 quanta enter your eyes each second, and the light looks perfectly steady. The startling quantum idea was accepted at first, but in time scientists found that it explained many other discoveries. It cleared up many questions about spectra that had had no answers before. Einstein was able to use the quantum theory to explain the kind of action that is now used in a photocell—a device for changing light energy into electric energy. Today physicists are forced to think of light as waves for some purposes and as quanta for other purposes. Neither idea by itself is able to explain everything that is observed. Waves explain fully what happens when radiation passes through space or through a material. But the quantum idea must be used to describe how radiation originates and what happens to it when it is absorbed in matter. Light and other kinds of electromagnetic radiation involve some of the most complicated events in nature. So it is no wonder that neither waves nor quanta alone can describe everything that is observed. Nevertheless, scientists hold out the hope that some day they may find a way to combine these two ideas into single theory that will cover everything in this field

What you always wanted to know about dental consulting, but were afraid to ask

Over the years many management programs, dental consultants and gurus (a favorite word in dentistry) have joined the marketplace. It is important to understand these different types of programs and styles of management before determining which is right for you and your practice.

Whatever program you choose, or whichever dental consultant you engage, commitment is paramount to your success.

Seminar management: This program requires taking your staff to a ___location for listening to a carefully orchestrated and planned lecture on one or more management topics, by a consultant well versed in public speaking. Hopefully you and your staff will learn a few new pearls of wisdom, feel motivated and promise yourselves you will implement this new system or procedure first thing Monday morning! These seminars attract doctors to the consultant and/or company through charismatic, public-speaking motivation techniques. I call it “seminar magic.”

Management gurus: These folks are highly trained public speakers with practice management and dental background who know how to market their products and services. They also use charismatic, public-speaking motivation techniques with a marketing-driven theme, triggering your impulse-buying mechanism. At the ballroom's entrance and exit will be a huge display of videotapes and books promising to teach you and your staff how to achieve success within your unique practice. You buy, they profit. When you return to the office on Monday, you refocus on treating your patients and promise yourself to set aside staff meetings to view the videos and discuss the books that were not read. As time passes, your staff will forget about the training videos and from time to time you will think of the money you spent on these materials now collecting dust on the bookshelf.

The “cheerleader” consultant: These consultants provide training sessions designed to motivate your staff. They are full of enthusiasm and really get you and your team fired up. They will implement a monthly bonus system for the staff, based on production, collection or a combination of both. After 30 days the staff will forget 50 percent of what they heard, and at the end of 90 days the training session will be a vague memory. Please refer to my article, You can't buy attitude and behavior!

The “fly girl” consultant: These consultants fly to the city where your practice is located and visit your office for a few days. They diagnose your practice, have meetings with the staff individually and as a group, meet with you to discuss their findings, leave you with their collection of training videos, wish you “Good luck!” and fly off to another city to provide practice management to another dental office. This management program – and I use that term lightly – will cost from $15,000 to $25,000. This style of management creates a management event. Please refer to the Cheerleader and Guru prototype for further instructions.

Cookie-cutter or cookbook management: This program is accompanied by a very thick manual. The consultant has little training other than a background in dentistry. Critical-thinking skills are lost on this consultant. She or he will meet with you and your staff one or two days each month, then introduce your staff to many forms and checklists. Every existing system within your unique practice will change. These consultants will run report after report and plug figures into their laptop computers. You will receive a monthly practice monitor intended to show growth and assure you that practice management is indeed taking place. Your staff will fight or take flight – but don't worry; you still own the cookbook and can train your new staff members, one at a time. Cookie-cutter management costs from $25,000 to $45,000. You will end up throwing the manuals away (just as you did the money spent on this program) and reverting to what was most comfortable and worked in the past. Cookie-cutter programs are not logical for dental practices, but cookie cutters make wonderful batches of cookies for the holidays.

Big-business management: These companies will have you sign a contract for several thousand dollars – maybe as much as $40,000 to $60,000 – covering a specific time. The company will assign you the consultant for your territory without you having met him or her. You will see this consultant on the average of one day (6 hours) per month and participate in telephone consultations with a “practice analyst” every two weeks to discuss your numbers. Your consultant will insist that you purchase the latest and greatest state-of-the-art equipment, used for processing and delivering crowns in one appointment. Imagine the increase in production you will realize! No lab fees! Huge profit margin! Remember to hand your monthly contractual payment to the consultant during his or her monthly visit. These “consultants” are people with dental-hygiene or dental office management experience who attended an intensive 3 – to 4-day training program in cookie-cutter management. They will not deviate from the company program. You likely will work with two or three consultants during your contractual-management program. These consultants are paid a daily fee equal to one-third the fee you paid the big business for practice management. They have a client load of 10 to 12 monthly clients, spend their life “on the road,” quickly burn out and leave the company.

The fireman consultant: These consultants form a needy and parasitic relationship with you. They are vague about what you should do to improve your practice performance. However, each time your level of worry increases and you call, she or he will don a fire hat, grab the hose and attempt to put out the current fire. This type of consulting lasts forever and is a huge financial drain on your business. You have not learned practice-building or problem-solving techniques and probably never will because you are being enabled to continue doing what you have always done. This consultant is the shield between you and your employees.

The away-from-the-office seminars: This program requires shutting down your practice and flying your staff to some major city or boarding a cruise ship. You can write off the travel expense for continuing education. This is a huge “bonus incentive” to your staff for a job well done over the past year. While you were cruising on the high sea for a week, you lost an average of $12,500 in production. This cost is in addition to the course fee of several thousand dollars and the travel and meal expense. You should provide your staff with “spending money” so they may enjoy the vacation. Please refer to the Cheerleader and Guru prototypes for further instruction.

The above styles of practice management promote self-interest on the part of the consultant or company. They will not improve your practice or increase your long-term profitability long-term.

Karl Terzaghi's Principle states that all quantifiable changes in stress to a soil [compression, deformation, shear resistance] are a direct result of a change in effective stress. The effective stress [σ'] is related to total stress [σ] and the pore pressure [u] by the relationship;

σ=σ'+u

Total Stress = Effective stress + Pore water pressure


Assumptions of Terzaghi's Principle

1. The soil is homogenous (uniform in composition throughout)

2. The soil is fully saturated (zero air voids due to water content being so high)

3. The solid particles and water are incompressible

4. Compression and flow are one-dimensional (vertical axis being the one of interest)

5. Strains in the soil are relatively small

6. Darcy's Law is valid for all hydraulic gradients

7. The coefficient of permeability and the coefficient of volume compressibility remain constant throughout the process

8. There is a unique relationship, dependant of time, between the void ratio and effective stress

SONET bandwidth is defined in multiples of an OC-1/STS-1, each of which can tranport up to 51.84 Mbps. However, it is frequently desirable to address much smaller portions of bandwidth. To meet this need, sub-STS1 facilities called Virtual Tributaries have been defined. In North America, the VT1.5 is the most common virtual tributary because it can carry 1.728 Mbps; just enough room for a DS1/T1 signal. In Europe, the VT2 (with a data rate of 2.304 Mbps) is used to transport E1s.

What's the application of this technology? Some SONET manufacturers offer products that can switch at the VT1.5 level. Such equipment is able to re-arrange the data payloads so that inbound VT1.5s are placed into a completely different set of outbound STS's than the ones they arrived in. Among other things, this allows the bandwidth usage to be optimized and facilitates a cleaner network design.

An ExpressCard is a modular I/O expansion card for laptops and similar portable computing and data procesing devices. Essentially, an ExpressCard is the logical successor to PC Cards (often incorrectly called PCMCIA cards) that have been used in laptops for almost two decades. PC Cards come in two flavors, "16-bit" PC Cards, which are the architectural equivalent of an ISA-standard desktop plug-in card, and "32-bit" PC Cards (also known as "Cardbus" cards) which are the architectural equivalent of a PCI-standard desktop card. Extending this sequence, an "ExpressCard" is the logical and architectural equivalent of a PCI Express card for a portable electronic device such as a laptop.

Physically, an ExpressCard slot in a laptop outwardly resembles a PC Card slot, however ExpressCard slots are not backwards compatible to PC Cards. ExpressCards themselves are the same 5mm thickness as a Type II PC Card, but come in two formats neither of which has the same dimensions as a PC Card. The "ExpressCard/54" format is 54x75mm, however, it has rectangular chunk removed from one corner and thus is not rectangular, but rather has 6 edges. The "ExpressCard/34" form factor is 34x75mm, and looks kind of like a stick of gum (or, from a computer perspective, kind of like the original early Sony "Memory Stick"). Both are clearly recognizable as being different from PC Cards.

Robert W Kearns was the inventor of the Intermittent Windshield Wiper Systems used on most vehicles from 1969 to the present. Dr. Kearns' claim to fame was winning one of the most famous of patent cases where the little guy took down the big guys. He invented and patented the intermittent windshield wiper mechanism for use in light rain or mist and tried to interest the big auto makers in it, but they all rejected his idea. Then when they all afterward installed intermittent wipers on their cars he sued them all for patent infringement and took them all for the big bucks.

Kearns was included in the Forbes 400 2005 Edition, along with Allen Gant Sr. inventor of panty hose (1959), and Ray Tomlinson who invented email and the use of the @ symbol in 1971.

James Teitelbaum was born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1967. He has made his mark on virtually all of the arts, studying painting, drawing, and photography in the 1970s and 1980s, and working as a published author, a musician, and a recording engineer through the 1990s and 2000s.

During his unremarkable education, James became interested in music, especially in synthesizers. His purchase of a Korg Poly-800 in 1984 marked the simultaneous beginning of his careers in both music and in sound engineering.

Performing both as a solo artist and as member of several Cleveland-based bands, James became known for his performances and recordings with Evil Clowns, Yahoo Network (a decade before the well-known web giant existed!), and Flat Earth Society (who's chief claim to fame was opening for Front 242 in 1991).

Simultaneously, James had embarked an a career as a professional recording engineer, working in a multimedia facility called Internatioal Visual Communications. His success and skill at recording music lead him to leave Cleveland to persue these skills in a larger city. After a brief stint in Florida, he settled in Chicago.

By 1993, James was employed at the legendary Chicago Trax Recording as an engineer. After engineering several CDs for both major and indie labels, he was asked to join the band Pigface. As a member of the legendary Pigface Team '94 - widely considered to be the strongest of the bands's many, many lineups - James solidified his position in the Chicago music industry.

Performing 44 shows in 45 days in 43 cities with Pigface proved to be grueling, and the reclusive James discovered that the little taste of fame he experienced playing in a band of Pigface's highly visual caliber wasn't something that he enjoyed.

Resolving to focus on engineering over performing, James went back into the recording studio, where he launched his own studio-only musical project, Left Orbit Temple, and continued to engineer records by a variety of artists. It wasn't long before the call to the concert venue was heard once again, however. James ended up on the road - this time as an engeer - with Minstry in 1996, and then with swing revival pioneers Royal Crown Revue, and then, much later, with actor Gary Sinise's band, the Lt. Dan Band. Between these tours, James engineered about 700 shows at Chicago's Park West theatre.

While all of this was transpiring, another calling was percolating in the background. Since childhood, James had been interested in tribal art, and since high school, middle-20th century pop culture had been a source of fascination. These two things, combined with a taste for a good rum drink, inspired James' love for classic American Tiki bars, beginning around 1991.

Throughout all of his concert touring experiences, James had used days off in various cities to explore the lost relics of a once-dominant American pop phenomenon. He launched a web site dedicated to his explorations in 1995, which lead to the book Tiki Road Trip in 2003.

Always a writer, ever since childhood, James followed Tiki Road Trip up with the books Big Stone Head (due for publication in 2007), and Tiki Road Trip II (also listed for 2007), as well as a slew of articles for publications such as Playboy, American Heritage, Road Trip America, Tiki Magazine, and AAA World. James also co-published the legendary sci-fi 'zine Blue Harvest from 1993 to 2000.

As a result of the success of Tiki Road Trip, James also became involved with the planning of some of the Tiki enthusiast festivals that became the rage beginning in about 2000.

As of 2006, James reports that he is involved in teaching music and sound engineering in Chicago, working on new writing projects, touring with Lt Dan Band, making records whenever possible, contemplating new material by Left Orbit Temple, and traveling outside of the US a minimum of once per year

REFENCES: Subject's web site (www.tydirium.net), dozens of interviews with subject on multiple web sites and in multiple magazines.

Stam1na is Finnish thrash metal band from Finland.

2005 the band released their first album Stam1na by Sakara Records which is founded by the Mokoma -band. Before their first offical album was released they released one self published record, many demos and Kadonneet kolme sanaa -single. Bands 2nd offical album Uudet kymmenen käskyä was published 10th of May 2006.

Stam1na's first pieces (Between the years 19971999) were sung in english.

History

Stam1na was formed in 1996, when the members were in their teens. The founding members of the band are Olkkonen, Velin and Hyyrynen but the core trio named Mr.Kangasmäki as a permanent member of the band in november 2005.

Stam1na comes from Lemi, a small rural town in the region of Southern Karelia, in eastern Finland. Lemi is one of those small places, where you don't have too many things to distract you from your hobbies if you happen to have one. Therefore Stam1na had nothing but time to rehearse endlessly, and develop their impeccable instrumental skills. Despite of being small and rural, the municipality of Lemi has always been very friendly to aspiring musicians by for example offering them rehearsal rooms. None of the Stam1na members live in Lemi anymore, but they still rehearse there, and they never fail to remind everyone where it all started.

Stam1na was one of the most anticipated unsigned acts in Finland. Their demos were praised, and the buzz around their energetic live shows was constantly growing. It just seemed that the Finnish labels weren't able to grasp Stam1na's wild concept of Finnish lyrics morphed together with speed metal riffs, progressive arrangements, and deranged approach to pop-smart melodies.

Eventually Stam1na was picked up by Sakara Records, the label ran by Finnish Thrash Metal heroes Mokoma. Their collaboration started when Mokoma saw Stam1na on stage, and asked the youngsters to be the support act on their Finnish tour. Soon Stam1na became the first signing of Sakara, which had previously released only Mokoma's material.

The debut Stam1na, was released in February 2005. The album got nothing but great reviews. The records buyers also appreciated the album and it spent eight weeks on the Finnish album chart, and the recent single "Paha Arkkitehti" entered the charts at number four.

Stam1na has been called "the future of Finnish metal" so many times that the expression is turning into a cliché, but luckily not into unfounded one. The band and the album has been elected and awarded for example as the "The Most Fresh Finn Album" (Ylex), "The Most Fresh New Finn Talent" (YleX), "The Heavy Band Of The Year" (Rumba press), "The Finn Newcomer" (both Rumba and Soundi readers). The band has also the Emma-award nomination in the category of "The Finn Newcomer". Stam1na won also The Mättö-Femma -award as the best heavy band.

Originally published in 1999 by Phaidon Press, Century is a coffee table book that is equal parts art and history. It was both concieved and edited by Bruce Bernard, an accomplished picture editor from The Sunday Times (UK) Magazine. Besides working for The Times, Bernard is also the co-author of a number of art books and his work has been featured at the Victoria and Albert Museum. In the words of the author, Century is "an attempt to outline the history of the twentieth century as the camera has seen it." In this attempt, the book is undoubtedly a success and offers an unparalleled photodocumentary of modern history.

It prepares ladies for mariage, and teaches them that unless you live on palm island or bludge off the government you are going to fail in life.

It is a true, but little known fact that red wine and stilton are eaten together due to the rather maggot infested nature of the cheese dating back to the eighteenth century. The wine was used as a kind of knock out blow to the maggots who when inebriated would stop wriggling and therefore make the cheese less mobile the those consuming it! Its amazing what you come up with and remember when using the Wikipedia widget on the mac for the first time don't you think?!

Goatchick is the transexual, cross-dressing version of Goatboy, who's story is both disturbing and eye-gougingly good (look it up while you're here). So Goatchick came into existance in a consequential meeting between JF Kennedy and the bullet that killed him. She exploded out of his left testicle and ran off into the sunset before anyone could spot her, and proceeded to knock down a building with her head. She recieved a bad headache for her troubles, and had to pop a few panadol, and then washed it down which a bag full of cannabis, a bottle of moonshine, and ten pills that turned out to be army-grade suicide pills. This proceeded to kill her, but God came down from the sky and threw her at a passer-by, who just happened to be Abraham Lincoln. Abraham Lincoln pulled out an AK-47 from under his stove-pipe hat, and proceeded to completely and utterly destroy anything that came into his line of fire, the only time when he took a break being when he reloaded.

Goatchick jumped off of the Eiffel Tower and landed on Abraham Lincolns haed, tore it of, and gave it to Chuck Norris, who then ate it. Chuck Norris said "yum", and then roundhouse-kicked God in the face, and sent him flying across the sea to Afghanistan. God then "tutored" the natives in his religion, and then the Arab/Christians got mad, and blew themselve to the moon and created a colonization up there and lived happily ever after.

Then Godzilla burst out of the ground and said hi to everyone before leaving on an all-expenses paid vacation to Hell. But, as he/she left, they managed to pull up the Eiffel Tower and imapled Goatchick on it and ate her. She died 900 BC. Then she came back to life and the natives ate her alive (like actually ate her, cut her up, cut her heart out, ate, no devoured the bloddy, gory mass that they haad cut up)!

You may have guessed that Chris Lee (hereinafter referred to as The Player) is Asian. The Player’s Sexual Orientation is not a 100% clear to me. At first I thought he was straight, but then again he’s been getting awful close to Drew lately. My logical conclusion is that Chris is a Bisexual player. The player’s sexuality is fascinating (not i a gay way though, just cause he's sort of a moron). He seems to be obsessed with a certain koala picture. It is said that the picture is sexually suggestive in that it shows a koala “hugging” a tree, the tree being an erect penis. It is rumored that Chris Lee eats salad because the picture of the koala is taped to the bottom of the bowl and that he likes to eat salad so that he can glance at the image. Chris is said to love Justine, but in reality he loves Asian girls in general. It is also said that Chris likes men. Chris Lee is known to engage in excessively gay behavior mostly consisting of screaming stupid ass phrases, potentially making body contact. These phrases include Hello! Hi! Shut up! You're gay! ABCD XYZ! You do that like a geek! In addition to that he laughs at many, many things, especially when people make fun of him. The player also makes many excuses such as, "I wasn't trying!"

Islam Channel

Despite constituting one fifth of the world’s population, Muslims and Islam are currently misrepresented in the global media. This has led to a large demand amongst Muslims for television that reflects their needs and programmes that are founded upon Islamic values.



Islam Channel aspires to be an alternative channel; it will advance unbiased and accurate images of Islam and Muslims and endeavour to bring about cultural understanding and awareness for a peaceful and harmonious co-existence amongst communities.

Michael Bailey is the Chief Executive Officer of the Compass Group. He will step down the 31st May 2006.

He joined Compass Group in 1993 as Group Development Director. Bailey became one of the UK’s highest-paid directors in 2003 when his total remuneration came to £2.62m, more than double the £1.26m given to chairman Sir Francis Mackay who had cut down his working hours.

After three profit warnings in a year and a major corruption scandal with the United Nations procurement, Bailey came under increasing pressure to step down. A financial analyst said of Bailey, "He is now regarded as a genuine liability".

A recent lawsuit by Monaco based catering group ES-KO International, against the Compass Group and Eurest Support Services (ESS), has questioned whether Michael Bailey was part of the UN procurement contracts scandal, which involved bid-rigging schemes and related illegal conduct of Compass Group’s subsidiary Eurest Support Services and its co-conspirators. The lawsuit claims that Bailey was often in New York during the time in question and was closely involved with Compass executive Peter R. Harris in forging the initial business relationship between Compass, ESS and the United Nations through its corrupt officials Alexander Yakovlev and Vladimir Kuznetsov.

Although the lawsuit does not name Bailey as a defendant, it says it reserves the right to do so if further investigation of the matter finds he had personal knowledge or involvement in any bid-rigging.

Dose of apathy are a Hardcore/metalcore from Caboolture, Brisbane which was made by now rhythm guitarist Chris Walton and drummer Josh Willes. They started jamming punk/pop punk song and covers but decided that they needed a bass player and vocalist to get this band going. They next found Daniel Petley, a up and coming bass player with alot of good ideas. The band was like this for a while but they still needed to find a vocalist. They looked hard but couldnt find anyone that suited what they were looking for. Nothing came until Josh heard Adam Gaudion singing during a school lesson. He had potential so Josh approached him to join. Adam had no musical experience but the boys thought he had potentional to become good. Time passed like this but they found that they were starting to have problems with Adam...He could sing quite well during pracs and rehersals but couldnt bring it to the performances. The last performance the band did with adam as vocalist was the St Columbans College Battle of the Bands. After this,they decided it was time to drop adam and take the band in a new direction. Now they faced a problem they faced in the bands early days...finding a vocalist. After yet another search they were shocked when one day at school,one of their close friends Tom West surprised the boys with his awesome singing voice. So with the audition of Tom, the band started to finally kick off. They were doing mostly cover gig while doing a few originals and found that they were getting a decent crowd response. But the music still wasnt what the band were hoping for so after alot of discussing and searching they decided that Hardcore was the way to go. This proved to be a good move because once they made the change, they found that they were making better music then ever before. But something still wasnt right....the lack of a lead guitarist???this is how Tyler Wely came into the scene. Long time friend of Daniel and one of the best guitarist for his age he was very muched welcomed into the band.

Ezio Testa is Chief Executive Officer of IHC Services which acts as a go-between, or “vendor intermediary” for suppliers to the United Nations. Ezio Testa and IHC Services are involved in a bid rigging corruption scandal for the UK catering giant company, the Compass Group.

A multi-million dollar contract to provide food to UN peacekeepers was awarded to Eurest Support Services (ESS) a subsidiary of the Compass Group, days after Andy Seiwert a senior executive at ESS received confidential bid information from IHC Services's CEO, Ezio Testa. At the time UN officials estimated the total value of ESS food contracts with the United Nations at $237 million, with renewals and add-ons that could reach $351 million.

Attached to the e-mail were commercially sensitive UN documents that no one outside of highly restricted circles within the UN was supposed to have access to; and that the contracts committee itself would not ponder for five more days.

  • The first document was a draft of the official recommendation by the UN procurement department that a $62 million contract for UN peacekeepers in Liberia be awarded to Eurest Support Services.
  • The second document was a detailed United Nations evaluation of the technical abilities of 12 different food supply firms to meet UN requirements for feeding separate UN peacekeeping missions.
  • The third document was a detailed list of the price bids, that three of the five firms had submitted for the UN contract. The document showed that ESS had bested its nearest rival, a food services firm known as Es-Ko, by literally pennies per ration unit, and had also underbid its competitors in virtually every other service category.

Such information is considered top-secret by the United Nations, and is submitted in a sealed-bid process that UN officials have touted as foolproof. Nonetheless, all this information was clearly available to the business executive who sent the e-mail: Ezio Testa.

Compass Group's business development executive Andy Siewert, who received Testa's e-mail had a vital interest in it. Siewert was the ESS/Compass executive described by sources close to the UN as having the most frequent day-to-day contact with the scandal-plagued UN procurement department. That contact included frequent meetings with Alexander Yakovlev.

Alexander Yakovlev pleaded guilty to charges of corruption, wire fraud and money-laundering after his personal ties were exposed to IHC Services. Vladimir Kuznetsov Head of the UN Committee for Administrative and Budgetary Issues was also arrested and indicted after taking nearly $1 million in bribes from the Compass Group.

Competitors ES-KO and Supreme Food Services AG have initiated lawsuits claiming violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, the Sherman Antitrust Act and New York State's Donnelly Act regulating free trade. Federal investigations are underway and the case has been referred to the Serious Fraud Office (UK).

IHC Services Inc is a vendor intermediary company aiding suppliers win United Nations contracts.

IHC was until recently a registered vendor to the UN procurement department, acting both as a contractor selling goods directly to the world body and as a go-between, or vendor intermediary for a number of other suppliers. Eurest Support Services (ESS), a subsidiary of the Compass Group, won a multi-million dollar contract to provide food to UN peacekeepers in Liberia five days after Andy Seiwert a senior executive at ESS, received confidential bid information from IHC Services CEO, Ezio Testa. IHC Services, a second supplier to the United Nations, acted as a consultant to ESS helping it win more than $240m (£140m) worth of contracts since 2000. Peter R. Harris, Andy Seiwert and Doug Kerr, top-ranking executives at ESS, were all dismissed for actions relating to dealings with IHC Services.

Peter R. Harris was sacked as boss of Compass Group in the UK, Ireland and Middle East and Africa, for allegedly asking Compass senior management if he could raise money to buy IHC Services. Harris was allegedly told that it would be inappropriate, as it would present a conflict of interest with his role as head of Eurest Support Services. Freshfields and E&Y concluded after their three-month investigation, that Harris then worked with an investment consortium that granted him power of attorney to complete the deal. Mr Harris joined the board of Alliance International Development, the company that took control of IHC Services.

Around the same time, IHC Services twice temporarily employed the son of a UN procurement officer Alexander Yakovlev - who pleaded guilty to wire fraud and money laundering in August after receiving money from "foreign companies" seeking to secure contracts with the UN.

IHC’s Chief Executive Officer, Ezio Testa, has denied any wrongdoing. In recent interview, Testa was emphatic that IHC did no business with the scandal-wracked Oil-for-Food program, and was not registered as an Oil-for-Food vendor. International caterer Compass Group has said it is one of a number of US suppliers that has received a subpoena from US authorities investigating millions of dollars of bribery at the United Nations.

There was a private sale of IHC on June 3, 2005, just as the procurement scandal was about to break. It now appears that while doing business with the UN, IHC had links both to Saddam Hussein’s old sanctions-busting networks, and to a Liechtenstein-based businessman, Engelbert Schreiber, Jr., known among other things for his ties to a figure designated by the UN itself as a financier of Al-Qaeda. IHC itself turns out to have a connection with Saddam’s former networks by way of a shipping company based in Jordan, Petra Navigation Group which advertises itself on its Web site as IHC’s agent in the Middle East, and has also been a registered vendor to the UN since mid-2003.

By 1997, Giandomenico Picco had signed on as an IHC director. He was a veteran of many years on the UN staff, but at that time working in the private sector. Just before leaving the UN, Picco had also led a round of the early negotiations with Saddam Hussein’s regime over setting up the UN Oil-for-Food program in Iraq. Later that same year, Picco left the UN and founded his own private consulting business. His arrival on IHC’s board came at roughly the same time that IHC appears to have first established ties to the UN. On Dec. 22, 1996, according to the UN, the company was registered on the UN Procurement Department’s list of approved vendors. That was the same month that the UN Oil-for-Food program began operation in Iraq. From 1998 until at least February, 2000, Picco went on to serve as chairman of the board of IHC Services.

Vladimir Kuznetsov was the Head of the United Nations Committee for Administrative and Budgetary Issues. He has been indicted after taking bribes from the Compass Group.

The UN Procurement Scandal

Kuznetsov was indicted in September 2005. He was charged with laundering money (at least $1m in bribes from foreign companies seeking contracts with the world body). He is said to have laundered this money on behalf of Russian UN Procurement officer Alexander Yakovlev, from UN Procurement contracts (notably Compass Group’s subsidiary Eurest Support Services) and Oil-for-Food. Vladimir Kuznetsov has also been named in recent lawsuits by Swiss catering group Supreme Foodservice AG, and Monaco-based Es-Ko International, relating to the UN Procurement contracts.

Kuznetsov set up an offshore company, Moxyco, and opened a bank account in its name in the Caribbean island of Antigua. Yakovlev then transferred the funds into that account between 2000 and 2005. After Yakovlev told him of the secret payments, Kuznetsov agreed to take a share of the money rather than turn him in to the authorities. He was arrested by the FBI, and pleaded not guilty at an arraignment in Manhattan federal court. He was released on a $1.5 million bond and agreement to surrender his travel documents.

Russian authorities paid to have Kuznetsov released from the Manhattan prison; however he must remain under house-arrest during the court proceedings, until at least April 2006, when the next court session will be held. All Kuznetsov’s movements are being monitored by electronic bracelet.

Background

Kuznetsov was elected to a three-year term on the budget advisory committee in January 2003. The prestigious panel’s 15 members, including a representative of the United States, then elected him as its chairman. He has worked in various budget-related positions in the U.N. Secretariat and the Russian Mission since 1980. The chairman is the only member of the ACABQ to draw a UN salary and benefits, and also gets diplomatic immunity. Committee members are not UN employees and do not normally enjoy diplomatic immunity. But the General Assembly granted him immunity because of his chairmanship. This diplomatic immunity was waived however, in August 2006, by the UN.

Connections

lexander Yakovlev: In June, Manhattan prosecutors charged UN Procurement officer Yakovlev with having participated in laundering bribes from contractors in exchange for insider information under the food-for-oil program. Yakovlev was released till the date of the verdict on acknowledgement of guilt and agreement to cooperate. Yakovlev gave away certain top-ranked officials of the U.N., including Vladimir Kuznetsov. Yakovlev claims that Kuznetsov helped him to launder the money he received for bribes, for which he paid him a share on condition that he did not report him or the activity.

Adrian Waller has enjoyed a busy career as one of North America's most successful magazine journalists and authors. He earned a living from some 16 published books, nearly 600 articles in North America's best-known magazines including Time and Reader's Digest, and from numerous newspaper columns that appeared in Britain, Canada, and Japan. He was also well known in Canada as an actor, theatre director, and opera tenor, having made two LPs, Adrian Waller Sings and A World of Song

    Waller was born in West Wickham, Kent, England, in June 1936, where he held down a series of menial jobs (barman, factory worker, and printing company packer) to earn money for music and drama studies in London, England. By his early 20s he had performed in numerous plays there and was already a sought-after young concert tenor. Soon, however, he succumbed to another passion – writing – and became a reporter on a small newspaper in Sheerness, Kent, singing where he could to earn extra money. 
    In 1963 Waller settled in Canada as a journalist, working first for the Chronicle-Herald and Mail-Star in Halifax, Nova Scotia.  Soon he moved to Toronto and Hamilton, Ontario, to write for such papers as The Hamilton Spectator, The Toronto Telegram, and the Globe & Mail. During this period, he gave many recitals both “live” and on CBC radio, acted in nearly 60 plays, sang with the Canadian Opera Company, and recorded his LPs of popular opera arias and songs. As a theatre director later, he staged nearly 50 productions, and won several best-director awards. 
    This work continued through the 1970s and much of the 1980s -- while Waller was writing for The Montreal Gazette,  Time, and Reader’s Digest, where he became a roving editor (senior writer). As a magazine journalist he covered a wide selection of important topics but won special acclaim for his profiles of literally hundreds of famous people including the great tenors Luciano Pavarotti and Jon Vickers, popular singers Paul Anka, Hank Snow, and Wilf Carter, actors Kate Reid and Donald Sutherland, orchestra conductors Charles Dutoit and Seiji Ozawa, movie director Norman Jewison, bandleader Guy Lombardo, and the renowned portrait photographer Yousuf Karsh. 
    In the early 90s, when he was in his 50s, Waller earned a Ph.D. in English (a degree awarded cum laude in Iowa, U.S.A.), and taught journalism, non-fiction writing, and theater arts at several Canadian colleges and universities. Between 1991 and 1997 he made 28 trips to Japan where he lectured widely and gave recitals in Tokyo and Yokohama. At one point he painted water colors for an art gallery and appeared on stage as a classical pianist. 
    When a television interviewer asked him why he had done so many different things with his frenetic life, Dr. Waller replied, “ I have always believed that success is not a line rising diagonally through a man’s life, where he starts as an office boy and struggles all his life to become the president, and has a heart attack on the way, it is a circle. Man is in the middle of that circle and his success is measured by all the things he can develop on its circumference – health, imagination, passion, intuition, and an ability to communicate widely, in different forms, with lots of people.” 
     An intensely private man , Adrian Waller has become something of a recluse in recent years. He and his wife live in both Montreal, Quebec, and Hallandale Beach, Florida.

In short

File:Dropping knowledge logo.jpg

dropping knowledge is an intercultural platform for social change, an online knowledge resource including everyone, regardless of race, religion, gender or class.

dropping knowledge was founded in 2003 as non-profit organization, and it is based in Germany (e.V.) and the USA (501(3)c) as project of the Tides Center. Sustained by a global network of individuals, corporations and NGOs, dropping knowledge is committed to fostering a global dialogue and inspiring real-world initiatives.

Objective

The objective of dropping knowledge (dk) is to support and facilitate responsible thinking and sustainable acting between individuals, corporations and NGOs on global issues and values towards social change.

Distinctive features / attitude of dropping knowledge

dk makes knowledge accessible by facilitating a global dialogue and the exchange of viewpoints and knowledge.

  • File:Dk screenshot.jpg
    As multi-lingual online forum, everybody can participate and be part of the global dialogue, beyond language, cultural and ideological barriers.
  • dk drives awareness on global important issues and values through an innovative and creative campaigning framework, combining both classical and next generation communication channels.

dk has launched a global question campaign “ask yourself”, encouraging individuals from all over the world to pose their own most pressing questions on

http://www.droppingknowledge.org

Why questions?

A global dialogue starts with a single question, and questions accelerate action-driven solutions. Questioning involves everyone, not only "experts“, everybody is invited to ask individual questions. Questions are followed by listening and an expectation of a feedback from the community – the answers. This process will ultimately lead to a rich dialogue.


Where do we get answers from?

File:August Bebel Platz Table.jpg

112 renowned individuals, the dropping knowledge Free Voices (scientists, philosophers, writers, activists etc.) from around the world will come together at the Table of Free Voices in Berlin on September 9, 2006. They will face the top-100-selection of the most pressing questions coming from the question campaign of the global public.

dropping knowledge shows that there is never a single answer to a question – wisdom and knowledge only arise from the interplay of multiple viewpoints.

The answers will be recorded by webcams (live streaming), and will be the basic and stimulating content for the living library. This searchable online archive is developed by the German Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI). As innovative web platform, the living library will foster long-term exchange of insights, ideas and information among the growing knowledge community, and will generate further dialogue on global issues and values.

Sustainability is fundamental to dropping knowledge. The event, just being the starting point, will be succeeded by further activities and an ongoing global dialogue process: the Round Table will tour as exhibition through the world, exposing pieces of wisdom to the global public, and the initiator Ralf Schmerberg will film a documentary of the project. It is planned to organize the “Round Table” every second year. In addition, dropping knowledge encourages all involved partners and individuals to initiate their own projects “inspired by dropping knowledge”, and provides the online platform as well as support in the planning, organization and realization. In this process, dk understands itself as facilitator and networking platform.

Founders and Supporters

dropping knowledge was founded by Ralf Schmerberg, a German film director, Jacky Wallace, producer from New York, and Cindy Gantz, production designer from Seattle. They are all innovative and free thinkers and artists, and they belong to the Board of Directors of dropping knowledge.

The initiative is supported by individuals (e.g. trustee Sabine Christiansen), NGOs as well as various partners and corporations. Since late 2005, the Allianz AG is founding partner of dropping knowledge and will support this project at least until 2007. By linking dropping knowledge to the company’s competences and existing CSR projects, Allianz will also take dropping knowledge findings as opportunity to initiate new sustainable projects, based on specific issues and learnings from the living library dialogue. http://knowledge.allianz.com/

Gustav Van Ferike was a genius within his own right! He is seen by many men as the founder of enzyme extraction. With out his dedicated work, to the study of these extraction of enzymes we would have trouble. Many say he was a 'crazy old fool' who stole his work. But this is far from the truth. The modern day extraction on enzymes may differ slightly from the Van Ferike process. But it has given fundamental steps to the process.

The Van Ferike process, is for removing enzymes from within the bacterium cell. Aka Intracellular enzymes. Gustav, or Gussy as he friends called him. Used a method grinding the cell. He found that his enzyme was present, but he needed to purify it. To do this he centrifuged it, and found the enzyme layer.

Although Gussy's work seems simple and silly, his first step, has help lead to form the modern world. He may not have been a famous man, but his process, is commonly talked about

The Psychotic Hour, now a global comedy podcasting sensation, began humbly enough in Montreal, Quebec in the mid 1980s. Initial radio broadcasts by producer Alan Rhodes were a pastiche of sound sculptures and sketch comedy, often jarring in their juxtaposition, drawing on such diverse influences and Dadaism, musique contrete and Orson Welles.


They attracted a small but loyal late-night Montreal audience on the far right of the AM dial.


By the 1990s the program was more widely available, having moved to a much hipper home on the FM band. Canadians from coast to coast were afforded a taste of The Psychotic Hour when selected excepts were aired on CBC radio. When the expected fame and riches failed to follow national exposure, the show was put on hiatus.


In late 2004, The Psychotic Hour resumed operations. Eschewing radio for the net-based technology of the 21st Century proved to be a wise decision. The Tph of today continues it's tradition of high production values combined with the worse puns in the Northern Hemisphere. Now more popular than ever, anyone, anywhere can now subject themselves to The Psychotic Hour.


Though many notables have appeared on Tph (including John Sanford Moore and Simone Denny), persistent rumours of an upcoming film project have been routinely dismissed as erroneous by staff members.

Hay yo. I am the bomb. I am like Superman!

Dave Nitsche is a conceptual Photographer based in Southern Illinois, USA. His work with common household items to show emotion or ideas has become known around the world.

Photography began for Dave about 4 years ago. He started taking pictures just for fun but it soon became on way of life spending most of his free time creating images. Some simple, some extremely complex but all showing what was going on inside his head.

Dave's images are steeped in traditional photographic means although he shoots mostly digital. Photomanipulation is not something that he uses. Software to him is like a traditional darkroom and he uses it as such. If an image needs more than basic work to it he just reshoots the image. While he is a fan of digital art for him creating the image in camera is as important as the final work itself.

His work has been shown in Galleries and magazines around the globe including the USA, China, Japan, Australia, UK, Spain, Portugal, Romania and Germany.

JDTS (Java Device Test Suite) is a set of developer programs, tools and test suites that allows device manufacturers to check their devices on compliance with J2ME standarts. JDTS is developed by Sun Microsystems and is an official Java compatibility test solution along with TCK. Nevertheless, there are major differences between TCK and JDTS test suites. If some device passes TCK tests, it assures that Java technology implementation on this device is standart compliant and logically consistent. But unlike TCK, JDTS takes in account such factors as perfomance and fault tolerance. It brings the test environment closer to real-world conditions, so that device makers and operators know a how device will perform in actual use, and pinpoints specific areas that need improvement to meet customer satisfaction requirements.

Pygmy Marmagoose

Discovered in 1876 on the Comoros Islands by famed Dutch Botanist Leonid Van Zwaans, the Pygmy Marmagoose is the only known relative of both the Mongoose and Weasel Family. The discovery was confirmed in 1892 by French Zoologist Emile Orenstein. Since then, the seclusion of the Pygmy Marmagoose has given it little exposure to mainstream attention. It remains among the most obscure of species. The small population has added to this. Numbering in the hundreds, the Comoros Species of Pygmy Marmagoose.

However, the Arctic Frosted Marmagoose survives in greater number due to a recent predator decrease over the course of the last century. Roaming the Yukon Territory, the scavenger family of Marmagoose bears similarities to it's cousins thousands of miles away. The relationship has yet to be explained between these two rare creatures.

Numerous expeditions have taken place both in the Comoros Islands and the Yukon Territory so as to uncover the mysteries between the Pygmy and Arctic Frosted Marmagoose. It's hoped that greater media attention will lend to a furthering of study on these bizzare creatures.
