WINSTON-SALEM � A volunteer church treasurer at a Catholic church in Winston-Salem has been charged with taking more than $4,000 from a church group.
Winston-Salem police said Monday that 61-year-old Rose Parks Hinson was arrested Monday and charged with embezzlement.
Hinson had been the volunteer treasurer for the Saint Monica's Ladies Guild Fund at St. Benedict The Moor Catholic Church.
Church officials called police in August.
Investigators think Hinson took more than $4,000 from the ladies guild fund over a nine-month period.
Church officials say the theft had no effect on the church's finances.
It was not clear if Hinson has an attorney. She is scheduled to appear in court Feb. 21.

Revised offer for Pompey football club
The football financier Keith Harris has made a revised bid to buy Portsmouth Football Club. In the new offer he says Portsmouth fans would be given a free 15% stake in the League One club.
Harris' offer, made public today, comes after Portsmouth's administrators PKF confirmed earlier this month they were considering a bid he was fronting.
The Football League responded then by announcing the south coast would be expelled from the Football League if the Pompey Supporters' Trust - PKF's preferred bidder - was not successful.
However, today the Harris-led bid announced 15% of the shares in the club will be allocated free to a group made up of supporters who have donated funds to PST, season-ticket holders and hospitality clients.
It is also proposed that a fans' representative will be elected to the board following any takeover.
Season-ticket holders, meanwhile, will receive a 10% discount on season tickets for the next three seasons starting with season 2013/14.
A statement on behalf of the Harris-fronted bid read: "The offer is not subject to any due diligence, as it has all been fully completed.
"Funds to complete the purchase are ready to be transferred to a UK solicitors' bank account and therefore ready for immediate release, subject only to the consent of The Football League.
"Negotiations to purchase the Club from the administrators and a payment plan to satisfy the PFA have now been completed and the agreements are ready for signature.
"Our bid has the full support of the creditors' committee including HMRC and the PFA as it gives a much greater return to creditors than the PST proposal. It also complies fully with the terms of the CVA.
"The option to acquire the stadium from the current owners is in an agreed form and will be completed immediately following the takeover. We recognise that this is pivotal to placing the club on a secure future footing in the wider community.
"The only outstanding issue remains the consent of The Football League, and all paperwork in that regard including the business plan, and stadium lease and purchase, are available for immediate consideration by the Board of The Football League."
In order to assuage "a number of ill-informed comments" Harris also insisted his bid involved only him and two co-investors, Pascal Najadi and Alan Hitchins, and was independent of any other interested party.
He said: "From the outset of our bid being announced on 7 February, we have sought to involve all supporters in our plans, and this includes any supporters involved with the PST proposal.
"We therefore felt we should take this opportunity to explain that our offer involves giving the fans a real stake in the future of the club, and we would be delighted to explain the full detail of our plans with any of the club's supporter groups - whether based in the UK or overseas.
"We believe this provides the best combined opportunity for the fans, for HMRC, for other creditors, and will, most importantly, put the club on a secure financial footing after a number of turbulent years - and enable us all, together, to build for the future."

I've been advising people about their philanthropy for over a decade. In person and through this blog I've always encouraged them to go beyond giving money to charity and think about all the assets they can bring to the table, and how they can especially use their power as investors and consumers to bring about the changes they want to see in the world.
Philanthropy as we have known it for the past few decades has been about giving money. But as we progress in the 21st century, I believe it will be about spending money: people are becoming more aware every day that we are shaping ourselves and the world around us by voting with our pocketbooks everyday.
The evidence is everywhere:
- The exploding local food and "slow food" movements, rejecting the agro-industrial complex in favor of healing the economic, environmental and social health of our communities;
- The growing fair trade movement, which provides fair wages and working conditions for workers and prevents the exploitation that often accompanies the production of cheap goods for consumption in the US;
- The call echoing out from Occupy Wall Street for conscientious citizens to move their money from big commercial banks to local community banks, personified in the Move Your Money campaign;
- The surveys that show that consumers want to purchase from socially responsible companies;
- The growing voices of Millennials looking to work for socially responsible companies, or better yet, that want to start their own;
- The expanding corps of investment advisers who specialize in "socially responsible investing" or "impact investing" a market estimated to grow to over $500 Billion in invested assets in the next 5 to 10 years;
- The rise of services like Moxy Vote, which help you vote your values on any shareholder resolutions that come before companies whose stocks are in your investment portfolio
In addition to these trends, maybe you have heard the term "collaborative consumption," which is being used to describe an emerging approach to people and their stuff–an approach based on borrowing, renting, sharing and accessing rather than owning outright. Early examples include Netflix for DVDs, car sharing services such as ZipCar or iGo, and more recently the peer to peer travel booking site Airbnb, and for designer gowns, Rent the Runway.
I'm so drawn to the concept of collaborative consumption, I am excited to tell you that I have launched my own social enterprise, one that applies the concept of collaborative consumption to an industry out of control: parenting.
Good Karma Clothing for Kids is a subscription baby clothing service that provides busy, socially conscious parents with like-new baby clothes in sizes newborn through 24 months so they don't have to spend a fortune keeping up with fast growing little bodies.
We send a bundle in the size the baby is now, they wear, wash, enjoy, then send them back in the prepaid, reusable shipping bag when they need to exchange them for the next size up. We only use environmentally- and baby-friendly Selestial Soap to further reduce the environmental impact of the clothing, and we turn stained, ripped or worn out clothes into "upcycled" hand-made bibs, baby quilts or stuffed animals.

Ducks hoping to soar high above visiting ColonelsAug 28, 2013 - 4:22 PM Eugene, OR (Sports Network) - The Mark Helfrich-era of Oregon football kicks off on Saturday afternoon when the third-ranked Ducks play host to the Nicholls State Colonels at Autzen Stadium.
As part of the Southland Conference, Nicholls State barely registered a blip on the FCS radar in 2012, going 1-10 overall, with its only win coming in a 73-17 blowout of Evangel on Sept. 22. It was the second straight year the Colonels went winless in conference play, having now lost 14 straight Southland bouts.
On the other hand, Oregon shined once again in 2012, opening the season on a 10-game win streak to rise all the way to No. 1 in the AP poll. The Ducks slipped up late in the campaign against Stanford (17-14), but they closed out the regular season with an easy win over Oregon State (48-24) to earn a bid to the Fiesta Bowl, where they defeated Kansas State, 35-17.
After the season, Chip Kelly departed his post as head coach to join the Philadelphia Eagles after going 46-7 with four BCS bowl appearances in four seasons at Oregon. Supplanting Kelly will be former offensive coordinator Helfrich.
"We don't look at it as someone replacing someone, we look at it as 'the next guy up,'" Helfrich said. "We're going to talk the same, work the same, practice the same."
This matchup marks the first-ever meeting between these two programs.
Not surprisingly, Nicholls State featured a disappointing offensive attack a season ago, scoring just 17.7 ppg while managing a meager 338.4 ypg.
Landry Klann returns under center for the Colonels, and improving upon his junior season will not be difficult, as he completed less than 57 percent of his passes for 2,049 yards, tossing eight touchdowns to go along with 14 interceptions. Beaux Hebert (.622, 315 yards, TD, two INTs) could also see action.
Tailback Marcus Washington was one of the few bright spots for the offense in 2012, racking up 598 yards (5.2 ypc) while plunging into the end zone six times. He was also second on the team in receptions with 25.
The departure of top receiver Jesse Turner (45 rec, 448 yards, two TDs) means that the Colonels will need Josh Hanberry (308 yards) and Erik Buchanan (283 yards) to step up their production.
Nicholls State's offense certainly wasn't helped by its porous defense, which allowed opponents to put up more than 38 points per game.
Linebacker Chris Bermond will serve as the unit's leader in his senior season as he attempts to improve upon a 64-tackle campaign. The team also returns some experience in the defensive backfield with T.J. Lumar (two picks, two FF) and Toren Joseph (two picks, five passes defended) back for another go.
As the Ducks were every year under Kelly, they were one of the most potent offensive teams in the nation in 2012, scoring a whopping 49.6 ppg, and they were the only team in the country to average at least 300 yards rushing and 200 yards passing per tilt. Considering Helfrich learned from Kelly, don't expect much to change in the coming season.
Quarterback Marcus Mariota was nothing short of sensational during his freshman year. Not only did he complete greater than 68 percent of his pass attempts for 2,677 yards with an outstanding touchdown-to-interception ratio (32-to-6), he was also dangerous outside the pocket with another 752 yards on the ground and five more scores. Mariota is a bona fide star, and Helfrich is anxious to see what he can do as a sophomore.
"This guy is the best quarterback in the country but he doesn't care how many passing yards he has," Helfrich said. "He cares what is says before and after the hyphen in the team record and that's how we operate. We want to score. We don't care about the method."
The loss of star running back Kenjon Barner (1,767 yards, 21 TDs) will certainly not go unnoticed, but his departure will allow for even more opportunities for De'Anthony Thomas. Thomas has proven to be a game-changer with the ball in his hands, whether it be rushing (701 yards, 11 TDs), receiving (445 yards, five TDs) or in the return game (611 yards, two TDs), and he could be a dark horse candidate for the Heisman Trophy if he keeps busting loose for long scores.
Byron Marshall will assume the role as the more traditional back in the offense after racking up 447 yards and four scores in a reserve role last season, while Josh Huff (493 yards, seven TDs) and Colt Lyeria (392 yards, six TDs) are important pieces of the passing attack as well.
At Oregon, the offense steals the headlines, and rightfully so, but the defense in 2012 was nothing to sneeze at, as it allowed just 21.6 ppg thanks in large part to nation's top turnover margin (+21).
The Ducks' defensive strength comes in the secondary, where several ball hawks have the ability to make game-changing plays. Ifo Ekpre-Olomu is a shutdown corner, snagging four interceptions to go along with 20 passes defended and six forced fumbles in 2012. Terrance Mitchell (eight passes defended), Brian Jackson (69 tackles, two INTs) and Avery Patterson (three INTs) also return to an outstanding defensive backfield.
While there is less certainty in the front seven, especially with the loss of Dion Jordan, Taylor Hart (11 TFL, 8.0 sacks) and Boseko Lokombo (39 tackles) both bring experience to the unit.
No one has shouted yet.

Texas Unemployment Rate Dips to 5.5 percent
AUSTIN, April 21, 2014 - The seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in Texas fell to 5.5 percent in March, down two-tenths of a percentage point from February's rate of 5.7 percent. The unemployment rate in Texas remains well below the national rate of 6.7 percent.
Employers in Texas added 9,100 jobs in March for a total of 310,000 jobs added over the year. The annual growth rate for total nonagricultural employment has remained at or above 2.6 percent since January 2012.
"The Texas economy continues to move in the right direction with Texas employers adding 310,000 jobs over the year," said Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) Chairman Andres Alcantar. "All 11 of the major industries experienced annual job growth, with five industries exceeding growth rates of 3.0 percent."
Employment in Texas continued to grow across a wide range of industries, with seven of the 11 major industries adding jobs in March. Professional and Business Services added 5,600 jobs in March, more than any other major industry.
"Many industries in Texas continue to post impressive annual growth, including Trade, Transportation, and Utilities, which added 73,400 jobs over the last year," said TWC Commissioner Representing Labor Ronny Congleton. "Texas job seekers looking to tap into careers in this and other thriving industries should take advantage of the training opportunities provided through Workforce Solutions and our education partners."
The Information industry also posted strong monthly growth with 2,300 jobs added in March. This was the best start to a year for the Information industry since 2000, with 2,400 jobs added in the first quarter of 2014. The industry grew by 3.2 percent over the year and added 6,400 jobs.
"In Texas, we acknowledge that it is our employers, both small and large, that are the economic engine of this great state," said TWC Commissioner Representing Employers Hope Andrade. "Private employers added 278,400 total jobs over the last year for an annual growth rate of 3.0 percent."
The Midland Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) had the lowest March unemployment rate in the state at 2.7 percent. The Odessa MSA had the second lowest at 3.3 percent and the Amarillo MSA was third at 3.8 percent (not seasonally adjusted).

The year 2009 was a year of ups and downs for hotels in particular and the global travel industry in general. There were many events and developments that helped shape the outlook of the hotel industry over the past 12 months. Let us take a look back at 2009 and identify these developments.
Who can forget the global H1N1 virus scare that rocked the world? Some surveys suggest that many travelers will be more concerned about germs and health-related issues in general, thanks to the outbreak of the H1N1 virus. This has thankfully led to more stringent measures and health awareness on the part of the establishments.
The global recession was clearly still in effect the whole year round, and there will even be some repercussions heading into 2010. There are still some significant properties and establishments being shopped and sold. However, it should be noted that, while some companies have been selling their hotels, there are those that are utilizing the sale to expand their core properties. That is a positive sign, showing growth and a willingness to expand despite the continued pinch given by the recession.
In 2009, eco-tourism and eco-friendly destinations started taking the spotlight, as both the travelers and the various establishments have become more and more environmentally conscious. Destinations such as Sweden, Norway, and Switzerland are the top dogs when it comes to eco-friendly places to visit. The hotels in such countries also benefit tremendously because of the influx of travelers, and a lot of them have already adopted an eco-friendly mentality to go with the times.
Of course, there are also many hotel groups-from smaller-scale local establishments to big chains of luxury hotels-who have re-evaluated their business approach and have made changes to their various investment strategies. This is a wise move, still in line with managing the costs and income in an economic landscape that still is not as stable as desired.
Another trend in 2009 was an increased patronage for online travel services, such as booking sites and aggregators that really are a big help to travelers. Still, traditional booking occupies a significant chunk of the pie, even with online services gaining some headway over the past year.
Some establishments, from hotels to apartments to luxury spas, have shown a diminishing level of performance in the middle of the year. The good thing is that some of them have been able to recover quite nicely and gain back some lost ground-and some lost ratings-to get back on track.
There are indications that leisure spending on the side of the travelers will go up in 2010, and that is a definite plus for the hotel industry. More people willing to spend more money translate to more business opportunities for hotels and other members of the hospitality industry.
All in all, it was another year and another step to recovery in 2009. Things are shaping up quite nicely for 2010, and hopefully, hotels and their respective managements learned a lot in the past year and start to apply them in order to flip the script this coming year.

Green grafting is a new system for speeding up the lifecycle of a grapevine and insuring extremely healthy and high quality vineyard stock.
Developed by Champagne Mumm and the Institut National Recherche Agronomique (INRA) in France, the "green graft" process and technology (all of which have been patented) allows rootstock and scion mother vines to produce green cuttings year-round by optimizing growth conditions. With this technology the timespan in getting newer clones into the field is dramatically reduced.

It's been just a bit longer than a year since Dave Arnold posted his method for clarifying lime juice with agar. This month's Mixology Monday theme also happens to be lime. Further, my local grocery has good, juicy limes selling for a mere $.39 right now. Coincidence or synchronicity? Either way, it was clear what I must do for this month's post.
Using agar clarification on juice is something I've been wanting to do for a while. My first experiments with agar clarification of coffee didn't work nearly as well as using the more time-intensive gel-freeze-thaw method, but I've been overdue to try it with citrus. Click here for detailed directions. The basic idea is to hydrate agar in boiling water, whisk a larger amount of fresh lime juice into this solution, let set, and then filter through cloth. Sounds easy, right?
Well, it is easy. Today was my first time using this method on citrus and I was able to get a yield of 170 grams clarified juice from 200 grams of fresh juice, 50 grams water, and .5 grams agar. The only complication is that I was out of muslin through which to strain it, so an ill-fitting, never-worn linen shirt found constructive use as a filter. I probably could have extracted even more juice using Dave's "massaging the sack" technique, but I was raised conservative. The resulting juice (right) is substantially clearer than juice that's only been fine strained (left).
OK, neat, but who cares? That's exactly what I thought as I was doing this today. But as soon as the first drops of clarified lime juice started dripping through the linen, I realized this was actually pretty cool. I could use this stuff in a traditional citrus cocktail, but I could probably stir it instead of shake it. The drink would look better and have better mouthfeel than it would with the air incorporated from shaking. As Dave says, "Clear drinks look more pleasing than cloudy ones, and have a better texture." (The winning bartenders at this year's 42 Below cocktail competition appears to have done something similar, as have a few others.)
This being a Mixology Monday hosted by none other than Doug from the Pegu Blog, the choice of cocktail was obvious: The Duck Fart. No, even better, the Pegu!
2 oz gin
1 oz Cointreau
.75 oz clarified lime juice
1 dash orange bitters
1 dash Angostura bitters
Stir over ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
This is a slightly different recipe than I use for a traditional Pegu, but it tastes great. The cocktail (above) is much clearer than the shaken version:
The most interesting thing about this cocktail is that the flavor is so unexpected. You see a clean, transparent drink and think it's all spirits, maybe vermouth, maybe some bitters. Then you taste it and surprise! There's citrus all up in your face.
I also tried the clarified lime juice tonight in a Pendennis Club (meh) and a Last Word (nice, though I had to add a little extra lime). The technique isn't practical enough that I'd use it all the time, but it's definitely an idea that can be used to good effect in cocktails.

How much should one spend for a rugged watch?
The discussion about Casio G-Shock watches is nearly comparable to the discussion about tough watches. G-shock has been the king among all the watch makers for decades now. If one can experiment with options, one would discover other tough watches than G-Shock. It is only that neither of the alternative watch makers has their focus solely on making the world's most robust watches. Actually, it'll surprise you to understand there are many different brands to select from, which exist in the military use niche.
The cost one must pay for purchasing the tough watch is entirely dependent on the model one chooses. The style or trend in tough watches might not transform as fast as fashion watches but it does not mean that it remains the same forever. If you buy a watch that really has the latest design and style, you might have to pay for the premium one. On The Other Hand, there's an exception to the rule. There are some watch companies, such as Casio, that constantly has its limited edition series. Some tough watches that are only produced for small amount may have lower cost in the future.
There are numerous factors one has to factor in as a buyer while purchasing a difficult watch. Primarily, you must look into the material the strap is made of; second, is how the watch tick-tack movement of the jewel. There are few different substances that are usually used to make the strap of tough watches. Titanium and stainless steel are popular watch materials; although they improve the look of tough watches they are not the best for the military market. This is the single reason why g-shock frogman inspired series use resin material that give changing colors of shade. A rough watch should have the ability to withstand falls and still work well, and it is for this very fact that watch movement is essential. That is the reason why it's crucial to read demanding watches reviews before making your choice. It is not easy to find the toughest watch for your need without reading rough watches reviews.
In conclusion it could be stated that finding the right type of watch to suit 1′s style requires a bit of research. Take your time to read and understand the tough watches reviews written by professionals, and covers cover various niches of tough watches. You constantly have to ensure that you understand your personal goals and needs before buying any watches for yourself. Casio G-Shock is a better alternative if you are searching for tough watches in the marketplace. But should you find G-Shock design to be boring or extremely bulky, there are other watch makers that do make military watches. Military watches should not be equated as tough watches because they are totally not. A tough watch is a companion for years to come so compromising on quality when purchasing one is a terrible idea.Read More

What makes a coffee machine good?
Should there be one thing that unites the various cultures and cuisines together, it will be coffee. As a general drink, no other beverage is taken as much as coffee is. This discovery might be a surprise to some as there were numerous kind of health study that highlighted the negative toll that caffeine consumption has on our health. Most of us love to visit popular establishments like Peet's Coffee, for the freshly brewed cup of coffee. Despite the popularity of such institutions, I was astonished to discover that if given a choice, many coffee drinkers would rather brew their own cup of coffee. This is probably the reasons why we see many brands and types of coffee makers when we go to the shops. As consumers, we may believe that more choices always mean better. However, the task of finding the best coffee makers is made difficult as due to the aggressive advertising campaign utilized by the various brands. That is why getting hold of good coffee maker reviews is essential.
We enjoy our coffee beverages for different reasons. Many of us need caffeine as a stamina booster while the rest think it's great exclusively for its flavor and aroma. The different coffee preparation stages directly affects the outcome of the final brew that is really fascinating to me. You can choose to get either in the form of whole bean or powder. Whole bean is always recommended but this requires you to have your own coffee grinder. There's no way ground coffee powder can give you the exact same freshness as whole bean. Coffee grinder is definitely something that every serious coffee lovers must have in their home.

You should consider many factors before buying a coffee maker. While capacity of the coffee machine is important, do not just forget about other factors including the ease of maintenance and cost. It's important to choose the right capacity in accordance to your need and you'll find several reasons for that. If you are brewing for group consumption, the best coffee maker for your case is those with larger capacity such as 4-cups coffee makers instead of single serve coffee makers that are more suitable for individual consumption. The brewing time taken by a 4-cups coffee maker is longer compared to the time taken by a single serve coffee maker. Furthermore, expect smaller water tank capacity when you are buying single serve coffee makers. Standard coffee mug size ranges from 4oz to 8oz. Dimension-wise, 4-cup coffee makers are generally larger. Understanding the maintenance effort required out of the coffee maker that you are purchasing can also be important. As an example, rinse functionality is just a practical feature found only in selected coffee makers. Using the press of a button, this feature lets you clean the filter after each use. Coffeemaker prices vary from as low as less than a hundred to as much as more than a thousand dollars. Rich set of functionalities are found in higher priced coffeemaker types but only few of them are really of use. Please check always how useful each feature is to be able to make sure that you don't buy what you do not need.
The typical view associated with coffee machine is it is good-to-have however not essential. Features are important but the best coffee makers need to offer both styles and substances. Red coffee makers have recently seen a surge in popularity along with the traditional black and silver color models. To cater to the growing market segment, major home appliance makers like KitchenAid and Cuisinart are quick to add red coffee maker models to their line-up. Appliances with red color theme have always been a part of many of these brands and hence this is not a thing that surprises me. I personally found red to be much more fitting for kitchen appliances and I am saying this even when blue has always been my personal favorite color.
A great quality coffee maker lasts for many years. If you want a better usage experience with your coffee maker, then purchasing the one with the lowest cost isn't something that you want to do. The way in which most coffee makers extract the coffee flavor and aroma is to utilize pressure or pump. The most common complain with cheap coffee makers is they'll fail after several use. Be warned that there is a higher chance that cheaper coffee makers will only work half of the time only after few months of using them. So if you want less difficulty with your coffee maker, make sure you have done your homework and consider all of the features which are important to the performance of a good coffee maker.
The controversies surrounding coffee consumption won't go away and there will constantly be new coffee lovers born. Probably the most convenient way to obtain a cup of coffee is to purchase it but it will not provide you with the same level of satisfaction as brewing it on your own. A coffee grinder is always good to have and grinding the beans before brewing will give you the extra freshness. The best coffee maker is not necessarily most expensive but be advised against buying the cheapest coffee machine if you like it to last longer.Read More

Need advice to decide my next phone
I remember it was merely a year ago when the mention of Samsung and their Galaxy line of smartphones (or phablets some referred to it) would provide excitement to everyone. A year has since passed and it appears to me that everyone appears to have ditched Samsung devices and news of any Galaxy product release has so far been very quiet.
The Galaxy SIV was launched amidst massive hype and massive marketing budget but sales report have to date been lack-lustre. And now the Galaxy Note 3 has been released and yet I barely run into any writer discussing it.
I am not saying that I'm a fan of Samsung however in the past month or two, I have been seeing lots of good stuff about the Note II. I badly wished to get the Note II a year back but because my contract was not up for renewal then, I was forced to put it on hold. I tried to look at things positively in the past and told myself that Note 2 is very good but Note III ought to be greater. Given that my contract is nearly up and time for decision making, I found Note III to be significantly more than a little disappointment. If it's good, why no body bothers to talk about it? But having seen a lot of happy Note 2 users in my own social circles, it's been ingrained in me that the Note phablet is the next-best option to the iPhone.
I'm stuck now and could anyone tell me what to go for? Should I stick to my initial plan still and continue with Note III? Or should I consider other alternatives?Read More

Simple things to consider before making a backpack purchase
Since the start of time, backpacks have already been used by people in every corner of our planet, although they undertake different forms and styles. As a result of many aspects of our life that requires backpack to be utilized, this is something that is not unexpected. For individuals with a love for travel and like to do it the free-and-easy way, backpacks can be utilized to carry belongings from equipments to invaluables to clothings. If you're say an university student, you probably understand how before backpacks were used to hold these bulky books but one that has changed in functionality as the usage of notebooks is becoming mainstream. Backpacks are not restricted to these use-cases and fashion lovers have turned to backpack as one beautiful vogue accessories.
When you're investing in a new backpack, it's very important to define precisely what purposes is your backpack expected to serve, eg. hiking vs trekking backpack. Your shopping – whether it is for the best backpacks for college or others – is going to be a good deal simpler if this is obvious to you from the beginning. The reason why I'm saying it is because backpack itself is a general term but there's a wide selection of different needs or niches and there are few reliable manufacturers that rule each specialty segment. Therefore the next time you are looking for the best backpacks for day trip, you have to look at brands like Teton instead of High Sierra. From here alone, it should be obvious on how you can save yourself time by narrowing down early and focus only about the manufacturers that cater to your needs.
One rapidly expanding backpack market is among the PMETs. That is in no small part contributed to the common use of laptop and increased mobility in the workplace. With computing power that's more than what it requires to accomplish most every day tasks such as editing the spreadsheets, virtually no one is using the desktop PC anymore today. At the beginning, most office workers were rather reluctant to carry a backpack and they prefer to go along with a carry-all or sling or more fashionable looking bag to carry their notebooks . Nevertheless, if you must travel a lot of the time, I bet you would only want to carry nothing but backpack. This trend has in no time caught the radar of backpack producers and they have been quick to address this market. Nowadays, brands with the likes of Samsonite are among the major players on the market and due to this, if you are looking for best laptop backpacks for professionals, you will be certain of great look and function.
Based on these facts alone, I believe backpack is something which will always find its relevancy. It's nevertheless, something that will continuously evolve in line with the lifestyle requirements and fashion trends. Are we going to see the size of professional and college backpacks shrinking as time goes on?It is because the solution depends upon the measurement that future computing devices will need. Given all the constant talk of collapsible and flexible display technology, it's quite likely that the size of notebooks may shrink to half of its current size or possibly tinier. When this becomes a reality, it's time for backpack producers to start making smaller backpacks.Read More

My Personal Take upon Armani Exchange Watches
Armani is a trademark which has cultivated a great name within the realm of fashion. After all, it will carry the name Armani, an exceptional mark within the world of fashion. That is why regardless of whether Armani Exchange is designated to be the budget conscious edition of the brand, watch seekers care little about it. What is important to fans of the brand name is its younger, elegant and frequently bold fashion style. I cannot be left out from the list of these kinds of admirers that adore the Armani Exchange watches, although merely a couple of my personal timepieces carry the trademark.
My very first task will be to give a summary of the selection of products which the Armani Exchange watches avails to its fans. Why? Due to the fact, it's a frequent question from my own friends and colleagues, upon a variety of occasions. The question is none other than how good a watch does Armani Exchange make?Well, this can be a very subjective question and also the answer depends upon your definition of good.
First of all, there is no way that you can expect this watch to last a minimum of 10 years and that it's packed with the latest technologies ever discovered. To be honest, an Armani Exchange watch can't be compared to the superiority of some other high end wrist watches on the market today. In reality, Armani Exchange watches are far more similar to the various other trendy watches which are additionally common nowadays. They are not built to last for a decade. Think about this. Trend dies down over time, therefore, what is in-vogue now is not going to have that equal appeal five years down the road. Do you nevertheless expect your cool and new AX watch acquired today to nevertheless seem as cool five years in the future?
A number of Armani Exchange wrist watches feature alarm and stopwatch functions, but I need to warn you not to rely on them for precision. In the first place, their main purpose is actually just like fashion watches. Consequently, these types of extra features aren't as reliable as that of a sports wrist watch. The Armani Exchange watch isn't equal to the vibration and shock that there is within the sporting field.
This really is sufficient to explain the first understanding of quality yet the other side of quality should do with beauty. It offers you a thoroughly clean and also professional look which you'll need for your daily wear to work. It matches nicely and also easily into any kind of dresses you have in your wardrobe. Conditioned on the manner in which you defined goodness and if this is the ways you think brilliant should be, it would be able to fit perfectly right into your expectation. Personally, I currently have few Armani Exchange watches in my watch collection. Modesty aside, whenever I'm wearing one of my AX watches, people pause to voice out their admiration. This is not so surprising, because these types of watches happen to be smart, trendy and also practical.
From the overview, you may now understand that your notion of whether Armani exchange wrist watches are top quality or not is purely subjective. I'm very confident that your current expectations will not lie too far from what I have offered. One last thing that I thought would end up being interesting for you to understand. If you are thrown out the question on which party actually produces those AX watches being sold in the market, I am completely certain that you have no answer to it. Many people wrongly deemed that the watches are directly constructed by the brand itself, which unfortunately, is completely incorrect. There's a company known as Fossil Inc that's powering the manufacture of elegant Armani Exchange watches which usually are popular in the marketplace, in contrast to what many of the admirers know.Read More

A glance into my life
Many people are obsessed with many different things in life. Technology has been my obsession in life.
Let's give this some careful thought. Technology is a field where the only constant variable is change and the rate of change is quite scary to most folks.
Get hold of a smartphone and ask your mom or grandmom to introduce a black and white effect on the image that you've just taken or maybe just open a Word document and ask them to make simple modifications. A task that takes you minutes may be a task that is too daunting to them. That is what we know of as technological laggard. You may find it hillarious but try to think ahead say one or two decades from today and for all you know, you'll find yourself in their shoes.
At the present, we are already witnessing a generational transformation from the era of desktop computing to the era of phones and cloud computing. The mention of such terms may be alien to many folks and that is when we have to be reminded to keep ourselves relevant before it is too late. Otherwise, five years down the road, we'll find ourselves like a dinosaur in the brink of extinction.
I am not the savviest or techiest person but I am a tech lover who happens to have deep affection with writing. I am a self-proclaimed tech blog writer and I hope from my writing, I am not only benefiting my readers, but keeping myself intact with the latest state of the art technology.
I love collaborations, particularly collaborations which bring mutual benefits. If you have something in mind and love to collaborate, drop me a line and I love to hear from you.Read More

Minnesota Timberwolves Tickets
Minnesota Timberwolves Tickets Tickets Rated 0.00/5 based on 0 customer reviews 100 0
2013 Result: 31-51, missed playoffs Faces of the Timberwolves franchise? Kevin Love, Kevin Love, Kevin Love, and maybe Ricky Rubio. Nikola Pekovic (16.3 PPG, 8.8 RPG) actually had a breakout year at age 27 for what it's worth, but he's not viewed as a long term solution, especially as he has yet to resign as of this writing. They probably let go of 31-year-old Andrei Kirilenko at the right time, allowing him to sign with the Nets. Other than that they brought in veterans Corey Brewer and Ronny Turiaf as established veterans to build beneath, and perhaps keep the team competitive in a franchise that hasn't made the playoffs since 2004. Back then they were coached by Flip Saunders, and Latrell Sprewell, Sam Cassell, and a 27-year-old Kevin Garnett were their leading scorers. Arizona standout Derrick Williams is slowly improving but he still isn't crashing the boards as much the Wolves would like with only 5.5 RPG in almost 25 minutes per game. You know a team is in trouble when Luke Ridnour starts all 82 games. But they got some big names in the draft in UCLA's Shabazz Muhammad and Louisville's Gorgui Dieng. If Muhammad can control his ego and stay humble through little playing time in his young seasons, he could be a major difference maker. While he's just a question mark for now, Saunders (who, ironically, has returned to be the GM) may have just made an excellent draft. For this season, though, it'll be all Kevin Love (18.3 PPG, 14.0 RPG) yet again. The Minnesota Timberwolves are based in Minneapolis, Minnesota and play basketball in the Northwest Division and Western Conference of the NBA. They were founded in 1989 as an expansion team for the state of Minnesota. Like most expansions, they struggled in their early years but found stability after acquiring Garnett in the 1995 NBA Draft. Garnett helped the Timberwolves reach the playoffs eight consecutive times from 1997 to 2004 and win their first division title in 2004. In 2007, Garnett would leave the Timberwolves and they would again struggle until 2010 when they drafted Rubio to go with Love. Love and Rubio are expected to end Minnesota's troubles and begin a new era in their franchise's history. Now is a perfect time to get your tickets to the Minnesota Timberwolves' 2013-14 NBA season.

BAKER � It didn't take Crestview pitcher Roman Donofro long to warm up on Friday on chilly February night as the Bulldogs took on Baker in the 2013 season opener baseball game. Donofro was almost perfect in four innings of work as he struck out 10 Gator batters and allowed just one hit and one walk as Crestview rolled to an 11-2 win.
BAKER � It didn't take Crestview pitcher Roman Donofro long to warm up on Friday on chilly February night as the Bulldogs took on Baker in the 2013 season opener baseball game.
Donofro was almost perfect in four innings of work as he struck out 10 Gator batters and allowed just one hit and one walk as Crestview rolled to an 11-2 win.
Donofro wasn't alone in his impressive early season performance on the mound. Gator starting pitcher Alan Weidenhammer worked 4 1/3 innings and allowed just four hits and three runs, one of which was unearned.
Bulldog coach Tim Gillis couldn't have been happier with Donofro's performance and was equally impressed with the job first-year Gator coach Scott Johnson has done.
"Roman really threw well," Gillis said. "We had him on a pitch count and he got to that count quick.
I tell you what, you can obviously see Scott's finger prints on this team. He's done a great job of getting them prepared to play. It was a fight."
It took a while for the Crestview (1-0) offense to get untracked as the Bulldogs had just two hits, a Hunter Willis single and a Seth Thomason double through the first four innings.
The last three innings were another story as Crestview batters delivered nine hits and scored all 11 of their runs.
Donofro showed that he wasn't just a one-trick Bulldog as he had three hits to lead the Crestview attack.
The Bulldogs broke the scoreless tie in the top of the fifth inning as they struck for three runs.
Donofro singled to start the inning and courtesy runner, P.J. Grainger, who was running for Donofro, stole second base. A scorching grounder up the middle off the bat of Justin Rebholz scored Grainger.
Rebholz scored as Tyler Henderson reached on a Gator error and Henderson scored on another Baker fielding miscue.
Baker (0-1) responded in the home half of the fifth with a run off of Crestview relief pitcher Davis Champion.
Champion retired the first two batters he faced with no trouble, before hitting a streak of bad luck that started with a walk to Josh Long and ended with long scoring on the only Bulldog error of the night after Taylor Carlisle reached on an infield hit for the Gators.
The game was still close with the score 3-1 after the fifth inning, but Crestview broke things open in the final two innings scoring eight runs on seven hits.
Hendersonhad a pair of hits, one a double, and drove in two runs in the last two innings. Dakota Dean had a sacrifice fly that scored a run in the sixth and a two-run single in the seventh.
Thomason continued his big night with a two-run single in the sixth as well as the Bulldog bats came alive.
Crestview freshman Corey Armstrong gave the Bulldog faithful a glimpse of the future when he singled in his first high school at bat in the seventh inning.
The Gators managed a run in the seventh when Cody Nixon had a one-out single against Dean, who was in relief of Champion. Dean then hit a wild streak walking three of the next four batters to score Nixon.
Johnson knew his Class 1A Gators would have their hands full with the 6A Bulldogs, but he was pleased with what he saw from his team.
"We told them to start with that this is the best team we will play all year," he said. "The reason we try to play them (Crestview) is Tim does a great job and he has been around longer than anybody in the county.
"But the kids played great, they played hard and I've got a bunch of good kids and I'm happy to coach them."

I recently came across a wonderful quote from Malcolm Gladwell, author of The Tipping Point, Blink, Outliers, What the Dog Saw and David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants.
"If my books appear to a reader to be oversimplified, then you shouldn't read them: you're not the audience!"
He knows who he's writing for. He understands who his target audience is. Do you do the same with your product and marketing?
It's easy to assume everyone's your target audience when you have something everyone could conceivably use. The reality though is that no two people are alike. Targeting "everyone" means you're wasting your efforts.
Take something as mundane as window cleaner. Mostly everyone in North America has a home or a car with windows, so everyone needs YOUR window cleaning solution, right?
Not so fast. There are many kinds of people, such as:
- women,
- men,
- those who don't care if their windows are dirty,
- those who would prefer a more environmentally-friendly alternative,
- those who buy the stuff in bulk (and yours isn't sold in bulk),
- those who only buy "the best stuff",
- those who only buy the cheapest stuff,
- those who prefer pretty scents,
- those who prefer just the basic blue liquid,
- and so on.
Not understanding who your product or service appeals to causes cascading problems for marketing. From design to content to context, you're flying blind. When you know who your ideal customer is, you're miles ahead of your competition who don't.
I know you've heard it before, but it's worth repeating. Know your audience. Create useful and informative stuff for them, and do it better than your competition. You'll come out ahead in the long run.

The Kansas City Board of Trade December wheat futures contract price is trading in a price range between about $6.87 and $7.77. The contract price entered this range on Aug. 2. The bottom price of the range has been tested three times and the top price four times.
Cash prices are also in a 90-cent sideways pattern. Because the basis has improved about 30 cents, the cash price sideways pattern has shifted up about 30 cents.
At this writing, Oklahoma and Texas Panhandle cash price bids are between $5.81 (-$1.35 basis) and $6.28 (-$0.88 basis). Depending on location, these cash prices are in the middle of the sideways price pattern. The top of the cash price range would be the current price ($5.81 or $6.28) plus 45 cents ($6.26 or $6.73). The bottom of the price range would be the current price minus 45 cents ($5.36 or $5.83).
Nothing indicates that wheat prices will break out of the sideways pattern. However, if Argentina or Australia's wheat production is significantly higher or lower than expected, the trend would change.
In the October USDA/WASDE Wheat Supply and Demand Estimates, Argentina's 2010/11 marketing year wheat production is projected to be 441 million bushels compared to a 5-year average of 487 million bushels. Australia's wheat production is projected to be 845 million bushels compared to a five-year average of 671 million bushels.
Some market analysts speculated that China's recent interest rate increase of 0.25 percent was partially a market strategy. The theory goes, and the market reaction was, that the increased interest would cause the value of the dollar to increase and grain prices to decline. When this did happen, China took advantage of lower prices and bought soybeans.
Now the rumor is, that to meet corn needs, China will import more corn during 2010/11 than at any time during the last 15 years. China may also import feed quality wheat to offset part of the corn needs.
If China does import feed wheat, wheat prices may increase. This situation could also provide a market for low protein wheat that has been taking up scarce storage space in Texas and Oklahoma.
Abnormally dry and drought conditions remain in the Texas Panhandle, western and central Oklahoma, western Kansas, and up through Colorado. The Mississippi Valley region is also dry. As wheat stocks slowly decline, the market will become more aware of winter wheat planted acres and the conditions of the 2011 U.S. winter wheat crop.
Corn will continue to be the major influence relative to grain prices. Some market analysts predict that to meet 2011/12 marketing year corn demand, corn planted acres must increase from about 88 million to 90 plus million acres. Increased corn acres would be taken from soybeans, cotton, and wheat.
The soybean supply is adequate. The soybean market may have to protect soybean planted acres and to do this, soybean prices will increase in response to higher corn prices.
Wheat supplies are more than adequate. United States 2010/11 marketing year wheat ending stocks are projected to be about 300 million bushels above the five-year average. However, average wheat stocks are within striking distance.
A below average 2011 winter wheat crop could result is average or less stocks. Wheat prices will react to corn prices due to the need to protect planted acres (spring wheat), and because wheat may be substituted for corn in livestock feed rations.
The bottom line is that currently the market has a 45-cent downside price risk and a 45-cent upside price opportunity. Commercial storage and interest costs are about 7 cents per bushel per month. If you can't afford to take the risk, sell some wheat.

Study Looks at Risk Factors for HIV in U.S. Navy and Marines During "Don't Ask, Don't Tell"
Researchers led by Shilpa Hakre DrPH, MPH, of the US Military HIV Research Program, Rockville, Maryland, found that same-sex partners and inconsistent condom use were some of the major risk factors for HIV infection among US Navy and Marines during the era of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" (DADT). The study found that male-to-male sexual contact was a much more common mode of infection than previously reported. From 2005–2010, the researchers conducted an anonymous online survey of newly diagnosed HIV-infected US Navy and Marine personnel during the period of DADT. Of the 250 HIV-infected sailors and marines surveyed, 64 responded.
The most frequent risk factor reported by 84 percent of respondents was same-sex contact. Fifty-five percent reported only having male sex partners in the three years before being infected. About half had concurrent relationships with different partners. Sex with non-service members seemed to be another risk factor for HIV infection. Most of the HIV-infected respondents reported using condoms rarely or inconsistently, and practiced other risky sexual behaviors, including meeting new casual or temporary partners at bars, clubs, or on the Internet. Alcohol use also appeared to contribute to risky behaviors.
More than 75 percent of the respondents were surprised at testing positive; many reported low condom use because they knew or trusted their partner and the partner's HIV status. They underestimated their risk of acquiring the disease. Men who had sex with men accounted for most of the new cases of HIV, and the survey showed a higher rate of male-to-male sexual contact than in previous studies. The researchers note that the findings help clarify the risk factors for military personnel with HIV and provide opportunities for prevention efforts, particularly in promoting condom use and targeting social outlets such as Internet networking.
The study titled, "A Pilot Online Survey Assessing Risk Factors for HIV Acquisition in the Navy and Marine Corps, 2005–2010", was published in the journal, Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes (JAIDS):(2012; 61 (2): 125–130).

Performing Post-Upgrade or Post-Migration Tasks
Applies To: Windows Server 2008
After a migration, you may need to update certain configuration settings to make the target environment consistent. If the migrated certification authority (CA) is an enterprise CA or a stand-alone CA installed by an enterprise administrator on a domain member computer, you may need to update objects in Active Directory® Domain Services (AD DS) that are relevant for Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS).
This topic includes these tasks plus additional post-migration tasks:
Upgrade certificate templates in AD DS.
Restore encryption keys.
Decommission a CA.
Updating CRL Distribution Point and Authority Information Access Extensions
In the scenario in which the host name of the target CA is different from the host name of the source CA, the URLs referenced in the authority information access and certificate revocation list (CRL) distribution point extensions of certificates that have already been issued by the source CA may contain references to the old host name. To prevent errors resulting from this, update the configuration of the target CA so that it continues to publish its CRL and CA certificate to the locations referenced by the existing certificates in addition to the locations required by the new CA location.
To update CRL distribution point and authority information access extensions
On the target CA, open the Certification Authority snap-in.
Right-click the CA node, and click Properties.
On the Properties page, click the Extensions tab.
Add the required authority information access and CRL distribution point extensions.
The exact steps required will vary based on the extensions configured on the source CA. The following steps include the minimum steps required if the source CA had the default extension settings.
Add one new CRL distribution point extension to enable the CA to publish CRLs to the location the original CA included in issued certificates: ldap:///CN=CATruncatedNameCRLNameSuffix,CN=OriginalServerShortName,CN=CDP,CN=Public Key Services,CN=Services,ConfigurationContainerCDPObjectClass.
Replace OriginalServerShortName with the short name of the original CA host.
With the new location highlighted, select the Publish CRLs to this location and Publish Delta CRLs to this location check boxes.
Add any additional authority information access or CRL distribution point extensions required for validation of certificates issued by the original CA. For example, if custom authority information access or CRL distribution point extensions were configured on the source CA to be included in issued certificates, you will need to ensure that those paths resolve to locations where the new CA will publish current CA certificates and CRLs.
This step is primarily intended for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) paths. An HTTP URL or Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path can also be resolved by using a redirect or another solution.
- Click **Apply**, and click **Yes** to restart the CA.
Verify the CA can publish CRLs to the new location.
Open the Certification Authority snap-in.
Right-click Revoked Certificates, point to All Tasks, and click Publish.
Click either New CRL or Delta CRL only, and click OK.
Using Adsiedit.msc or other network tools, verify that the CA can publish to the new location.
Verifying ACLs on the AIA and CDP Containers
If the target CA has been modified to publish to the authority information access and CRL distribution point locations of the source CA, perform the following steps to ensure that the CA has the correct permissions to publish to the Active Directory object of the source CA.
To verify ACLs on the AIA and CDP containers
Log on as a user who is a member of the Enterprise Admins group to a computer where the Active Directory Sites and Services snap-in is installed.
Open the Sites and Services snap-in (dssite.msc).
In the console tree, click the top node.
On the View menu, click Show services node.
In the console tree, double-click Services, double-click Public Key Services, and then click AIA.
In the details pane, select the name of the source CA.
On the Action menu, click Properties.
Click the Security tab, and then click Add.
Click Object Types, click Computers, and then click OK.
Type the host name of the target CA, and click OK.
In the Allow column, select Full Control, and click OK.
In the left pane, select CDP and the host name of the source CA.
In the details pane, select the first CRL object.
On the Action menu, click Properties, and then click the Security tab.
In the list of permitted group or user names, select the name of the source CA, click Remove, and then click Add.
Click Object Types, select Computers, and then click OK.
Type the host name of the target CA, and click OK.
In the Allow column, select Full Control, and then click OK.
In the details pane, select the next CRL object, and repeat steps 14 through 18 until you have reached the last object.
Performing Registry Updates after a Host Name Change
If the CA registry configuration settings are migrated from the original server to a target server with a different host name, there are some manual updates that should be made to make the environment consistent. This should be done in addition to any updates to the CA's authority information access and CRL distribution point extension settings.
Perform the following tasks:
Verify that CAServerName is a registry string value located under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CertSvc\Configuration\CAName\ registry key. It should be updated to represent the DNS name (for an enterprise CA or domain member CA) or the host name (for a stand-alone workgroup CA) of the new CA host.
Verify that CACertPublicationURLs and CRLPublicationURLs are both registry multi-string values located under the same key as CAServerName. CACertPublicationURLs indicates the authority information access extension settings, and CRLPublicationURLs indicates the CRL distribution point extension settings configured in the Certification Authority snap-in on the CA Properties Extensions tab. While these settings may have been updated as a separate step previously (see Updating CRL Distribution Point and Authority Information Access Extensions), they should be checked in the registry to ensure any hard-coded host names are reconciled with the new environment.
Check the remaining registry values under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CertSvc registry key, with emphasis on any values that have been customized to ensure that they are free of data containing the old CA host name or other invalid CA settings. For example:
Upgrading Certificate Templates in AD DS
Certificate templates, which are installed in the Certificate Templates container in AD DS and not on the CA itself, may be upgraded at any time after the first installation of, or upgrade to, a Windows Server® 2008–based CA in the forest.
Two new certificate templates are included in AD CS in Windows Server 2008: OCSP Response Signing and Kerberos Authentication. To upgrade certificate templates, after the first CA computer has been upgraded to Windows Server 2008, open the Certificate Templates snap-in as a user who is a member of the Enterprise Admins group.
The template upgrade is required to deploy the Online Responder service, but it is not required for operation of a Windows Server 2008–based CA. If a feature that depends on a Windows Server 2008 template, such as the Online Responder, is required, the template upgrade is required.
Performing a Restore of Encryption Keys
If performing a CA consolidation, you may have to restore previously exported encryption keys to a new CA. In Exporting Archived Encryption Keys (Optional), the certificates and keys have been exported from the CA that originally issued the certificates. After importing the encryption keys into an existing CA, you can remove the CA where the certificates and keys were exported from.
To restore encryption keys into a CA database
Log on with administrative credentials to the existing CA computer.
Open a command prompt.
To allow importing certificates that were issued by a foreign CA, type:
certutil –setreg ca\KRAFlags +KRAF_ENABLEFOREIGN
To activate the new configuration setting, the CA service must be restarted. At a command prompt, type:
net stop certsvc
net start certsvc
If you have not configured recovery agents on the existing CA computer, you have to do so before private keys are imported for archival. The CA must have key recovery agent certificates available to encrypt the private keys. For more information about configuring key archival, see Key Archival and Management in Windows Server 2008 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=92523).
Assuming that you have created the .pfx files as described in Exporting Archived Encryption Keys (Optional), type the following command at a command prompt to import all .pfx files into the existing CA:
for %i in (*.bin.pfx) do certutil -f -p Password -ImportKMS %i
To reset the configuration applied in step 3 to the default setting after all certificates are imported, use the following command:
certutil -setreg ca\KRAFlags -KRAF_ENABLEFOREIGN
Restart the CA as described in step 4.
Decommissioning a CA
As part of a CA consolidation, you may want to require that a CA be decommissioned. For information about CA decommissioning, see the following articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
