If another nuclear emergency were declared at Three Mile Island, some parents might be swimming against the stream as they drive to pick up their kids from schools.
In such an emergency, some schoolchildren would be sent to pickup centers on the fringe of evacuation zones, raising concerns that parents trying to pick up their kids would slow traffic fleeing the danger.
The watchdog group Three Mile Island Alert petitioned the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Emergency Management Agency to require pickup centers instead be at least five to 10 miles beyond the evacuation zones.

text: Rajgira Puri is a popular Indian bread made from amaranth flour (rajgira atta) during fasting periods. It is a gluten-free and nutritious alternative to regular wheat puris. The dough is prepared by combining rajgira flour, rock salt, and water, which is then rolled into small discs and deep-fried until golden and puffed. Rajgira puris are light, crispy, and have a slightly nutty flavor. They are commonly served with fasting dishes like sabzi, chutney, or yogurt. Rajgira puris are a delicious and satisfying option for those observing fasting or looking for gluten-free bread alternatives.

UK Prime Minister Theresa May commended Saturday the work of emergency services amid the deadly Grenfell Tower fire, although admitted that the support provided to the incident's victims and their families on the ground was not sufficient.
The ferocious blaze that gutted a London high-rise last week and left 58 people presumed dead was a "preventable accident" that followed "years of neglect" from the government, the city's mayor said Sunday.
All 24 floors of the high rise uilding have now been searched after the recovery operation was paused on Friday over fears for emergency workers' safety in the building.
Police do not expect to find any survivors inside the 24-storey concrete tower, which contained 120 apartments. It was reportedly flammable, and it might have been banned on buildings above a specific height.
Mr Cundy appealed to anyone who escaped from the building but is yet to come forward to make themselves known to police.
Conditions in the staircase were so cramped, fire crews were told they could stay outside to help or go into the burning building without their full breathing apparatus and just their eye gear.
USA airstrike killed top ISIS cleric
A 2016 US Treasury Department counter-terrorism designation identified Binali as a citizen of Bahrain born in the country in 1984. Central Command confirmed al-Bin'ali's death in a press release, weeks after ISIS itself said he had been killed .
Harley Facades Limited, the company that was subcontracted to clad the tower block's exterior, but did not manufacture it, said the Chancellor's comments were "frivolous and ill-informed".
"It's hard to describe the devastation the fire has caused", Cundy said, fighting back tears as he spoke.
"Sadly, for many families, they have lost more than one family member", Cundy said.
Cundy said there may have been other people in the tower that police are not aware of, which would add to the final death toll.
Of the 58, he said the number of confirmed fatalities in Wednesday's inferno remains at 30. We know that there are still bodies of those who died inside the building and we want to return those people to their families as soon as we possibly can.
"During recent visits in Manchester and London, I have been profoundly struck by the immediate inclination of people throughout the country to offer comfort and support to those in desperate need", the queen said in a statement.
He promised an "exhaustive" criminal investigation that would also look at a major refurbishment of the tower completed past year.

PS4 Can Achieve PS2/Wii-Like Success, Study Says
New report from Strategy Analytics predicts PS4 to outsell Xbox One by 40 percent by 2019.
The "Connected Home Devices" report, released Wednesday, predicts that the PS4 will reach around 80 million units sold by 2019, compared to 57 million for the Xbox One.
At this time, both the PS4 and Xbox One will be close to the peak of their lifecycle, Strategy Analytics says, also adding, however, that there will still be room for "modest growth" in 2019 and beyond.
Sony shipped around 18.5 million PS4s during the console's first year, which Strategy Analytics notes is close to matching the first-year sales pace of the PlayStation 2 (20.1 million) and is up substantially over the slow start for the PlayStation 3 (10.5 million).
Strategy Analytics has high hopes for the PS4 in the long-run, saying the console "is on path to reproduce the success of the PlayStation 2 and Nintendo Wii," according to GamesIndustry International. The PS2 is the best-selling home console of all-time, shifting more than 150 million units to date. The Wii, meanwhile, has sold over 100 million systems.
As for the Xbox One, Strategy Analytics reports that its estimated 12.4 million units shipped in the first year was better than the Xbox 360's year-one tally of 10.4 million systems. The firm claims Xbox One sales could have been better, however, were it not for the PS3-like challenges it faced, including a higher initial price point than its main competitor.
The Xbox One, which originally came bundled with Kinect, launched in November 2013 at $500. Microsoft later offered a $400 non-Kinect bundle, the same bundle the company lowered to $350 only months later. $350 is the current introductory price for a new Xbox One, compared to $400 for the PS4.
Nintendo's Wii U, however, will "trail a long way behind its rivals," according to Strategy Analytics. "It is looking more and more like Nintendo struck lucky with the original Wii," it said.

John 3:2 Beloved, now are ye the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. ( 1 Cor. 15:51-54 1 Thess. 4:13-18 )
The quality of conduct, character, and lifestyle, of born again believers, as they submit unto God and resist the devil, ( James 4:7 ) which is the out living of our right standing with God, ( righteousness ) which is by faith in Jesus Christ: as we grow in grace, knowledge and the truth of God; being conformed to the image of Jesus.

Vs.7 If ye endue chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
Vs.8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
Vs.9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
Vs.10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
Vs.11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

Eczema is a group of skin conditions that cause uncomfortable symptoms. One type, called flexural eczema, specifically affects the skin where your joints bend, such as the crease of your elbows and the back of your knees. Learn more about the symptoms, causes, treatment, prevention, and prognosis for flexural eczema in this article.
Flexural Eczema Symptoms
Eczema—also called atopic dermatitis—causes the same types of symptoms in any part of the body that is affected. These can include:
- Red, irritated skin
- dry skin
- Scaly patches
- Oozing fluid
- Crusted skin
Babies often develop eczema on their scalp and face, while older children are more likely to have eczema in their creases.
Babies and very young children don’t have the ability to tell you their skin is itchy, but you might notice them rubbing against the sides of the crib or the carpet to try to scratch the itch. This discomfort also makes it more difficult for the child to sleep.
Repeatedly scratching the affected skin can lead to bleeding and increase the risk of infection. With time, the skin can also become thickened and/or leathery.
Symptoms of flexural eczema can come and go. When a person’s symptoms are present, they are experiencing a “flare-up.”
The exact cause of flexural eczema is not known. However, certain risk factors can increase a child’s risk of developing eczema, such as genetic factors or having parents with other immune system disorders, including asthma or allergies.
Genetic defects in a person’s skin barrier can lead to atopic dermatitis. A primary function of your skin is to provide a physical barrier to the rest of your body. It helps to keep allergens (substances that can trigger an allergic reaction) from entering your body. It also helps to keep your skin hydrated by preventing water from leaving the cells.
One genetic defect identified as a risk factor for atopic dermatitis is the lack of a protein called filaggrin. This protein is important for strengthening the skin barrier. When filaggrin is lacking, water can escape from the skin and dry it out. Allergens can more easily enter the body and cause a flare-up in symptoms.
Even if the exact cause of a child’s flexural eczema can’t be identified, several things are known to increase the risk of a flare-up. These can include:
- Irritants: Skin irritants cause symptoms when they come in direct contact with the skin. Ingredients found in household cleaners, detergents, and soaps can often be irritants. Tight clothing or fabrics that are abrasive (like wool) can also increase symptoms.
- Allergens: Exposure to allergens in the environment, such as dander, pollen, dust mites, grass, trees, and mold, can trigger flexural eczema. Other allergens can include metals such as nickel, latex, rubber, and ingredients in skin products.
- Weather: Changes in the weather can trigger a flare-up. Symptoms are particularly common in the winter months when the air is cold and dry. However, flexural eczema can also be triggered by hot weather if the skin becomes dried out or if a person sweats a lot.
There is no cure for flexural eczema, but some kids “outgrow” the condition as they get older. Others will continue to have flare-ups throughout adulthood. However, there are several treatments that can reduce symptoms during a flare-up.
The affected skin can be treated with topical creams that contain steroids to reduce inflammation.
Doctors may prescribe topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCIs) that block one of the chemicals produced by the immune system. These help reduce symptoms during a flare-up. Protopic (tacrolimus) and Elidel (pimecrolimus) are examples.
Dupixent (dupilumab) was approved in 2017 for cases of adult moderate-to-severe eczema. It is an injectable monoclonal antibody. It blocks a receptor to inhibit inflammation.
There are also several home remedies you can use for better comfort during a flare-up:
- Follow a bathing routine. Bathe in lukewarm water and avoid taking extremely long baths. Use cleansing products free of common irritants such as fragrances, dyes, or preservatives. Add some oatmeal to the bath to help reduce itching. Wash the skin very gently and pat dry—rubbing with a towel can cause further skin irritation.
- Lock in moisture. Apply topical medications or moisturizers right after the bath while the skin is still damp. Use creams or petroleum-based products rather than lotions, which can evaporate quickly from the skin.
- Dress appropriately. Choose clothing that covers the affected areas. Because flexural eczema occurs where joints bend, irritated skin could rub against other irritated skin as the child or adult moves around. Dress in loose-fitting, 100% cotton, long-sleeved shirts or pants.
Prevention and Prognosis
Flare-ups in flexural eczema can’t always be prevented, but you can decrease the risk of having severe symptoms. Make sure to stay well hydrated and dress in breathable fabrics, particularly when the weather is hot.
Avoid triggers whenever possible. An allergist (a doctor who specializes in treating allergies, asthma, and other immune system disorders) may do testing if you think you have an allergic trigger for your eczema.
Flexural eczema affects the skin where your joints bend, such as inside your elbows and behind your knees, especially in babies and children. The skin can be red and itchy. It may have an underlying genetic risk factor, and people with it often have allergies.
Treatment includes topical creams and prescriptions, as well as lifestyle measures to keep the skin hydrated and avoid triggers.
A Word From Verywell
Flexural eczema can be stressful, especially for babies and young children who can’t understand why they are uncomfortable. This can be equally stressful for the adult caring for the baby or child who isn’t feeling well. Talk to your doctor about resources, and consider talking with other parents or caregivers for support.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is flexural eczema the same as atopic dermatitis?
Flexural eczema is a specific type of atopic dermatitis.
Is flexural eczema contagious?
All types of eczema, including flexural eczema, are not contagious.
What causes flexural eczema?
The exact cause of flexural eczema is not known, but genetic defects and allergies can increase your risk of developing this condition.
Is skin discoloration from eczema permanent?
Unfortunately, skin discoloration that happens with eczema can often be permanent.

Steve Dolan, vice president of shipping for APL Emirates, is awaiting the verdict of a case brought against him and three others charged with smuggling guns into Dubai, according to an STL Today report.
Dolan, who has been living in Dubai for two years, is a Ballwin native and graduated from Chaminade in the 1970s according to the report.
The report adds Dolan said "he knows nothing about the approximately 30,000 knock-off handguns and ammunition authorities told him they discovered last fall in a container that was switching ships in Dubai en route from Turkey to Djibouti."
If Dolan is found guilty, he could face up to 50 years in prison. He told STL Today "We had nothing to do with this" and that he is confident "If I go to jail over this, the U.S. government will act."

San Francisco is a popular travel destination and the fourteenth largest city in the United States. The history of san francisco is interesting, as san francisco has acted as a cultural and financial center in the United States. San Francisco has also had a tumultuous past with the san francisco earthquake of 1989. This was certainly not the first san francisco earthquake, as another san francisco earthquake had struck the city in 1906, killing thousands and leaving hundreds of thousands more homeless. The san francisco earthquake of 1989 had a much smaller death toll but many were injured and the damage caused by this san francisco earthquake was substantial. The san francisco earthquake of 1989 was actually broadcast on live television because at the time the san francisco Giants were playing in the World Series.

There are many san francisco hotels so you can find a hotel in San Francisco to suit any price range. Many of the san francisco hotels are actually hostels, to accommodate the many backpackers who travel to san francisco. A lot of the nicer san francisco hotels are located on Nobb Hill, which was once the wealthy area of San Francisco until the 1906 san francisco earthquake destroyed it. Many of the Nobb Hill mansions were then rebuilt as san francisco hotels. If you are looking for san francisco hotels, try and find one that has a view of the san francisco bay area because San Francisco is a beautiful city.

Make sure to book san francisco hotels well in advance of peak season because San Francisco is a very popular tourist destination.

The song features strong electro house influences in its sound. Gunder and Gunnar are the North Germanic equivalents in Scandinavia. The song is a parody of Eurodance genres, especially those from the s and s in Germany. Examples of the most popular fan-made videos include US soldiers in Iraq dancing to the song, YouTube users in front of their computers lip-synching, and various edited parodies.
Published: November 3, A family approaches the unofficial border crossing at the end of Roxham Rd. Indeed, while polls show most Canadians are opposed to the stream of illegal immigrants flooding across our borders in Quebec — over 15, so far this year — it is the illegal part they oppose, not the immigrant part. The people illegally crossing the Quebec border are neither refugees nor legal immigrants.

KIEV, November 18. /TASS/. Ukraine estimates potential losses of Russia’s food embargo at $600 mln in 2016, Ukraine’s Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said on Wednesday.
"We are preparing for Russia’s introduction of trade restrictions against Ukraine. Ukraine performed its assessment of potential losses from embargo, at least for 2016. We will lose about $600 mln of export to Russia," he said.
Ukraine’s dependence on Russia declined threefold, Yatsenyuk said at the same time. "If our dependence was 35% earlier, it is at the level of 12.5% now," he added.
Russian Minister of Economic Development Alexey Ulyukayev said earlier on Wednesday that the Russian Government decided to introduce food embargo against Ukraine from January 1, 2016.

The New Orleans singer August Alsina continues to impress fans with his music. He is currently working on his sophomore album but still he has managed to take time out to do a remixed version of Jeremih and J. Cole’s hit track “Planes”. Remix is engineered by Vinylz.
While the remix by August Alsina hits radio, fans of the original version of “Planes” will have it soon as it will be featured in Jeremih’s upcoming LP “Late Nights”. The album will hit stores on July 17.

Last November, I switched from an iPhone 4 to the Galaxy Note 2. I hate to say it, but the iPhone just doesn’t keep up with my needs anymore. It’s disappointing, but after years of waiting for Apple to bring new innovations to iOS, Google and its partners are slowly edging past Apple to meet consumer needs – and I’m moving with them.
The iPhone 4 is coming to Verizon Wireless! Today, Verizon held a press conference in NYC where Chief Operating Officer Lowell McAdam promised the press conference would “not disappoint”. After a tedious explanation of how much Verizon has beefed up their systems and technologies for this moment in time, he officially announced that the iPhone 4 is headed to Verizon. Here’s a look at what’s in store and how best to decide whether or not to switch.
This post was actually scheduled to go live a long time ago. With all the holiday rush going on, I was caught off guard and didn’t catch the scheduling error I made (sorry!). Without further ado, here are the winners of the Griffin Tech iPhone 4 Case Giveaway.
Griffin Technology was the case maker I selected with my iPhone 4 upgrade. Combining great protection with style and function, their products stand out without being flashy. My case has been a life saver when traveling as the Social Media Specialist for the Volt Unplugged Tour. Today, I’m giving away two (2) iPhone 4 cases courtesy of Griffin Technology.

This was a complicated walk, though not all of it was walking. We set off from Selçuk at 8:30 in the morning and drove to Pinar Köyu where we stopped for breakfast of gözleme, domates ve zeytin. It was a fairly brief stop and soon we were back on our buses for the drive to Çomakdağ köyu where we ended up staying for longer than I think was originally intended.
First we climbed up with some other people, above the village where there was a fantastic view.
We were back in the village at the appointed time, but everyone else was behind by half an hour then we went strolling off with a gentleman from the village who showed us several traditional houses (many of them somewhat ruined), his pygmy cows and an olive barrel. He ended up taking us home for lunch. Which was delicious but had to be cut short as the buses were revving up and we were keeping them waiting.
Our next stop was Euromos – we’ve been there before and our visit was all too brief as we were running late. It’s a really impressive site and I would love to go back on our own, with more time to explore (and less people….. There were 75 in our group!)
We drove onwards towards Bafa Lake where we finally got our walk! Only about 7 Km the Yediler Manastriri and back.
And finally, onto the beach at Heraklia (no time to explore the ancient city) where we watched a beautiful sunset and enjoyed an ice cold beer with friends.
It took a couple of hours to drive back to Selçuk. A very full day, but extremely worthwhile

ABU DHABI – The biggest rematch in UAE Warriors history is confirmed as Jesse Arnett (20-8) is set to defend his UAE Warriors featherweight title against rival Ali AlQaisi (12-6) in the main event of UAE Warriors 33 on Saturday, September 17, live from the Etihad Arena on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
Arnett won the title from AlQaisi in an exciting and heated affair at UAE Warriors 30 this past July, ending the triple championship reign of "The Royal Fighter." The bout was ended via doctor stoppage due to a cut sustained by AlQaisi in the second round. Emotions ran high, and tempers flared in the aftermath. However, officials quickly handled the situation, and both fighters immediately agreed to a rematch.
Will Arnett retain and establish himself as the UAE Warriors featherweight champion or can AlQaisi regain his status as triple champion? The score will officially be settled on September 17, live around the world on UFC Fight Pass.
If that wasn't enough excitement, we will see the anticipated return of the Africa series as "UAE Warriors 32: Africa" takes place the night prior on Friday, September 16.
Hailing from Comoros, Oumar is based out of France where has become both a sanda and kickboxing champion. The 29-year-old is on a five-fight win-streak which includes an impressive submission win over the previously undefeated Mohamed Amine in his last fight in UAE Warriors this past March.
Oumar will once again need to be on top of his game as he faces Angola's Quissua. A former kickboxer himself, Quissua trains out of the renowned Planet Eater gym in Germany and has won all three of his professional MMA bouts since making his debut just over a year ago.
Stay tuned for more fight announcements.

THERE has been a bitter reaction to the confirmation that the police public counters at Carluke, Biggar and Lesmahagow ARE to close for good from March 3.
This comes despite major campaigns to maintain these points of direct, personal contact between officers and the public they serve.
The only consolation for Clydesdale is that the counter at its police headquarters in Lanark is to remain open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
However, the loss of the other three counters has been attacked as being an example of how the new single Police Scotland force is becoming “too centralised”.
That is the opinion of David Mundell, the MP for Biggar who mounted a petition campaign to prevent its station’s counter closing.
Commenting on the announcement that this had failed, he said: “I am disappointed but not very surprised.
“Police Scotland isn’t the kind of organisation to take account of local concerns.
“This decision is despite a petition against it signed by over 500 of my constituents, not only from Biggar but the vast hinterland the police station there serves.
“These constituents don’t want to have to travel all the way from, say, Abington and Leadhills to Lanark to see a police officer.”
For more on this story, pick up a copy of this week’s Carluke and Lanark Gazette.

Vitrinite reflectance (VR) and the volume fraction of quartz cement in sandstones are both measures of thermal exposure. This paper shows how porosity reduction by quartz cementation can be related to VR for heating at a constant rate, using simple models for quartz cementation and VR. This relationship reveals that the heating rate is an explicit parameter, which means that there is no pure relationship between porosity (volume fraction quartz cement) and VR. However, the rate of quartz cementation and the rate of change of TTI (time–temperature integral) have a close exponential dependence on temperature. Porosity reduction by quartz cementation as a function of VR therefore nearly follows the same curve for very different temperature histories. This property of porosity reduction by quartz cementation is used to calibrate average specific surface parameters as a function of porosity. The calibration procedure is demonstrated on two datasets, where the average specific surface depends on porosity to the power of an exponent that is somewhat greater than 3.

I am disgusted with the NYPD. Ruthless Cowards who abuse their power as police officers. Disgusting. Ruthlessly beat and assaulted peaceful American Citizens for demonstrating their 1st Amendment Rights to Peacefully Gather. Your excuse this time? AGAIN “The Park Needed To Be Cleaned” So when the Parks need to be cleaned do you send Police in and beat the homeless senseless too? Do you go in there with batons and start beating and knocking people to the ground and dragging them out??
Hey NYPD! What about that poor young lady who had a seizure AFTER YOU ARRESTED HER AND YOU LET HER LAY THERE FOR 10 MINUTES BEFORE GIVING HER MEDICAL ATTENTION!?? You can’t deny this one, a live stream from a cell phone shows the young lady violently having a seizure and police did NOTHING. 10 minutes in Police and Paramedics shows up and started treating her! Can you say Police State? Regardless of your views on Occupy, What the NYPD did last night was Violent, Ruthless Aggression and was Completely uncalled for! After seeing so many attacks on Peaceful Americans, I am embarrassed because in the Land Of The FREE and Home Of The BRAVE, YOU CAN’T EVEN ASSEMBLE WITHOUT POLICE BEATING THE SNOT OF YOU!!
This needs to stop. I will make it my mission in life, Police have no right to execute that kind of violence on a peaceful crowd! If people are smashing windows and attacking other people, then it is a different story. But to walk into Zucatti Park and just start beating people and dragging them out. Simply uncalled for. Oh, and AGAIN the NYPD forced all Media OUT of the park and started harassing them about why they were covering the clearing of the park.
I can not sit by and watch Police Officers who are suppose to Protect and Serve, senselessly beat and attack peacefully gathering Americans! I have said it before and I will say it again, The Police are No longer Protecting and Serving the American People, The Police are now Protecting and Serving the Corporate Power and Money that runs the City they are employed by.
Well, I have a problem with that. When did the Police Department become Big Corporations personal Security? What happened to the Police being on the side of the Protecting the People? Police Officers are under this impression they are not affected by the same stuff citizens are. Scary part is, Police are underpaid and over worked just like the rest of us. The police don’t realize they truly are one layoff away from being part of the ever growing Unemployment line. The police may think they are protecting the interest of the City they work for but in fact they are hurting themselves. We are fighting for EVERYONE to have an equal playing field, not just a select few. We see a problem in the system and local and big government see us as a problem and proceed to send the police to attack.

Hurley and Warne lunch with kids
Elizabeth Hurley and Shane Warne have been spotted having a family lunch following reports their relationship was on the rocks.
The 44-year-old former cricketer tweeted last week that he was "sorting through some private issues" with the 48-year-old actress, after it was claimed their three-year-relationship was over.
Now Elizabeth and Shane have been photographed going for lunch at the posh Santa Lucia in London, with Shane's three children - Summer, Brooke and Jackson - from his former marriage to ex-wife Simone Callahan.
The group looked relaxed and happy, and Elizabeth shared a hug with Brooke, but she and Shane kept their distance, and the actress was not wearing her engagement ring.
Shane said on Twitter "we're not throwing the towel in yet", while Liz told online followers that events in her life were "too raw and personal" to share.
She has since tweeted that many of the recent reports about her in the media are "fiction".

Florida man gets life sentence for killing 2 teens, injuring another
A Florida man has been sentenced to life in prison for fatally shooting two teens and wounding a third near Fort Myers.
Elwood Robinson was sentenced in Lee County court.
A jury found him guilty in June of two counts of second-degree murder and one count of aggravated battery with a firearm.
Prosecutors say a group of teens were hanging out near Robinson's house in November 2018.
He had an altercation with several of them. Robinson flashed a gun and told them he was a police officer.
When another group of teens arrived, one tried to disarm Robinson. That's when prosecutors say he fatally shot two teens and injured the third.


Daimler Benz slides to loss of pounds 2.5bn
Friday 12 April 1996
However Manfred Gentz, chief financial officer, said key businesses within the group were well hedged against currency fluctuations into the near future.
The group paid no dividend for the year and said it was too early to comment on any payout for 1996.
Jurgen Schrempp, chairman, said that Dasa, one of the four partners in the European Airbus consortium, should break even in 1997 after losses of more than DM4bn last year.
He said that restructuring measures to achieve the turnaround have been provided for in the 1995 accounts.
Mercedes-Benz, the group's automotive unit, provided an upbeat tone at the annual meeting with projections of a 5 per cent increase in sales this year, with profits at least equal to those in 1995.
Last year Mercedes made a net DM2.275bn compared with DM1.849bn a year earlier while sales rose to DM72bn from DM70.7bn in 1994.
Currency market fluctuations reduced group net income by DM2.4bn. Daimler said currencies hurt net income by reducing the operating results by DM1.6bn while a further DM800m was shaved off to cover provisions for risks on its order books.
The mark climbed much of last year against the dollar and other European currencies.
A strong mark hurts German companies by reducing the amount of money they make on overseas business and by raising the price of their goods when they are denominated in other currencies.
Mr Gentz said Daimler's car business in the US was hedged at exchange rates above recent levels well into this year and in Europe into the autumn.
He added that Dasa was hedged into 1997 and even 1998 with futures contracts "clearly above" the current dollar/mark rate.
Daimler said group sales should grow this year by 5 to 10 per cent on last year's DM103.55bn.

Quality decisions are one of the major decisions in inventory management. It affects customer’s demand, loyalty and customer satisfaction and also inventory costs. Every manufacturing process is inherent to have some chance causes of variation which may lead to some defectives in the lot. So, in order to cater the customers with faultless products, an inspection process is inevitable, which may also be prone to errors. Thus for an operations manager, maintaining the quality of the lot and the screening process becomes a challenging task, when his objective is to determine the optimal order quantity for the inventory system. Besides these operational tasks, the goal is also to increase the customer base which eventually leads to higher profits. So, as a promotional tool, trade credit is being offered by both the retailer and supplier to their respective customers to encourage more frequent and higher volume purchases. Thus taking into account of these facts, a strategic production model is formulated here to study the combined effects of imperfect quality items, faulty inspection process, rework process, sales return under two level trade credit. The present study is a general framework for many articles and classical EPQ model. An analytical method is employed which jointly optimizes the retailer’s credit period and order quantity, so as to maximize the expected total profit per unit time. To study the behavior and application of the model, a numerical example has been cited and a comprehensive sensitivity analysis has been performed. The model can be widely applicable in manufacturing industries like textile, footwear, plastics, electronics, furniture etc.
The uncertainty in the supply chains (SCs) for manufacturing and services firms is going to be, over the coming decades, more important for the companies that are called to compete in a new globalized economy. Risky situations for manufacturing are considered in trying to individuate the optimal positioning of the order penetration point (OPP). It aims at defining the best level of information of the client’s order going back through the several supply chain (SC) phases, i.e. engineering, procurement, production and distribution. This work aims at defining a system dynamics model to assess competitiveness coming from the positioning of the order in different SC locations. A Taguchi analysis has been implemented to create a decision map for identifying possible strategic decisions under different scenarios and with alternatives for order location in the SC levels. Centralized and decentralized strategies for SC integration are discussed. In the model proposed, the location of OPP is influenced by the demand variation, production time, stock-outs and stock amount. Results of this research are as follows: (i) customer-oriented strategies are preferable under high volatility of demand, (ii) production-focused strategies are suggested when the probability of stock-outs is high, (iii) no specific location is preferable if a centralized control architecture is implemented, (iv) centralization requires cooperation among partners to achieve the SC optimum point, (v) the producer must not prefer the OPP location at the Retailer level when the general strategy is focused on a decentralized approach.
This article paper presents a hybrid metaheuristic algorithm to solve the time-dependent vehicle routing problem with hard time windows. Time-dependent travel times are influenced by different congestion levels experienced throughout the day. Vehicle scheduling without consideration of congestion might lead to underestimation of travel times and consequently missed deliveries. The algorithm presented in this paper makes use of Large Neighbourhood Search approaches and Variable Neighbourhood Search techniques to guide the search. A first stage is specifically designed to reduce the number of vehicles required in a search space by the reduction of penalties generated by time-window violations with Large Neighbourhood Search procedures. A second stage minimises the travel distance and travel time in an ‘always feasible’ search space. Comparison of results with available test instances shows that the proposed algorithm is capable of obtaining a reduction in the number of vehicles (4.15%), travel distance (10.88%) and travel time (12.00%) compared to previous implementations in reasonable time.
A dynamic system differs from a static system in that it contains signal factor and the target value depends on the level of the signal factor set by the system operator. The aim of optimizing a multi-response dynamic system is to find a setting combination of input controllable factors that would result in optimum values of all response variables at all signal levels. The most commonly used performance metric for optimizing a multi-response dynamic system is the composite desirability function (CDF). The advantage of using CDF is that it is a simple unit less measure and it has a good foundation in statistical practice. However, the problem with the CDF is that it does not consider the variability of the individual response variables. Moreover, if the specification limits for the response variables are not provided the CDF cannot be computed. In this paper, a new performance metric for multi-response dynamic system, called multiple regression-based weighted signal-to-noise ratio (MRWSN) is proposed, which overcome the limitations of CDF. Two sets of experimental data on multi-response dynamic systems, taken from literature, are analysed using both CDF-based and the proposed MRWSN-based approaches for optimization. The results show that the MRWSN-based approach also results in substantially better optimization performance than the CDF-based approach.
We introduce a new robust simulation optimization method in which the probability of occurrence of uncertain parameters is considered. It is assumed that the probability distributions are unknown but historical data are on hand and using φ-divergence functionality the uncertainty region for the uncertain probability vector is defined. We propose two approaches to formulate the robust counterpart problem for the objective function estimated by Kriging. The first method is a minimax problem and the second method is based on the chance constraint definition. To illustrate the methods and assess their performance, numerical experiments are conducted. Results show that the second method obtains better robust solutions with less simulation runs.
In this paper, a multi-period model for blood supply chain in emergency situation is presented to optimize decisions related to locate blood facilities and distribute blood products after natural disasters. In disastrous situations, uncertainty is an inseparable part of humanitarian logistics and blood supply chain as well. This paper proposes a robust network to capture the uncertain nature of blood supply chain during and after disasters. This study considers donor points, blood facilities, processing and testing labs, and hospitals as the components of blood supply chain. In addition, this paper makes location and allocation decisions for multiple post disaster periods through real data. The study compares the performances of “p-robust optimization” approach and “robust optimization” approach and the results are discussed.
A sequential production line is defined as a set of sequential operations within a factory or distribution center whereby entities undergo one or more processes to produce a final product. Sequential production lines may gain efficiencies such as increased throughput or reduced work in progress by utilizing specific configurations while maintaining the chronological order of operations. One problem identified by the authors via a case study is that, some of the configurations, such as work cell or U-shaped production lines that have groups of buffers, often increase the space utilization. Therefore, many facilities do not take advantage of the configuration efficiencies that a work cell or U-shaped production line provide. To solve this problem, the authors introduce the concept of a buffer cluster. The production line implemented with one or more buffer clusters maintains the throughput of the line, identical to that with dedicated buffers, but with the clusters reduces the buffer storage space. The paper derives a time based parametric model that determines the sizing of the buffer cluster, provides a reduced time space for which to search for the buffer cluster sizing, and determines an optimal buffer clustering policy that can be applied to any N-server, N+1 buffer sequential line configuration with deterministic processing time. This solution reduces the buffer storage space utilized while ensuring no overflows or underflows occur in the buffer. Furthermore, the paper demonstrates how the buffer clustering policy serves as an input into a facility layout tool that provides the optimal production line layout.
Scheduling and layout planning are two important areas of operations research, which are used in the areas of production planning, logistics and supply chain management. In many industries locations of machines are not specified, previously, therefore, it is necessary to consider both location and scheduling, simultaneously. This paper presents a mathematical model to consider both scheduling and layout planning for parallel machines in discrete and continuous spaces, concurrently. The preliminary results have indicated that the integrated model is capable of handling problems more efficiently.
We present here a hybrid algorithm for the Flexible Job-Shop Scheduling Problem (FJSSP). This problem involves the optimal use of resources in a flexible production environment in which each operation can be carried out by more than a single machine. Our algorithm allocates, in a first step, the machines to operations and in a second stage it sequences them by integrating a Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) and a path-dependent search algorithm (Multi-Objective Simulated Annealing), which is enacted at the genetic phase of the procedure. The joint interaction of those two components yields a very efficient procedure for solving the FJSSP. An important step in the development of the algorithm was the selection of the right MOEA. Candidates were tested on problems of low, medium and high complexity. Further analyses showed the relevance of the search algorithm in the hybrid structure. Finally, comparisons with other algorithms in the literature indicate that the performance of our alternative is good.
This paper tackles an extension to the Multi-activity Combined Timetabling and Crew Scheduling Problem (MCTCSP). The goal of the original problem is to schedule the minimum number of homogenous workers required, in order to visit a set of customers characterized by services needed against schedule availability. However, since in home services it is common to have specialized workers, a mathematical model considering a heterogeneous workforce is proposed. As a solution, a GRASP-based algorithm is designed. In order to test the metaheuristic performance, 110 instances from the literature are adapted to include categorical skills. In addition, another 10 instances are randomly generated to consider large problems. The results show that the proposed GRASP finds optimal solutions in 46% of the cases and saves 40–96% computational time.

Abstract The effect of some cationic amines (spermine, spermidine, hexamethonium bromide and tetramethylammonium bromide) on the mobility of electroosmotic flow (EOF) in open fused-silica capillaries was studied. The EOF was found to be significantly reduced with spermine and spermidine and to a lesser extent with hexamethonium bromide. Tetramethylammonium bromide was found to be ineffective as a flow modifier. Spermine (10–20 μm M) gave a stable reduced EOF at pH 2.50, while 400–500 μ M was required at pH 7.0. In a silica-packed capillary, higher concentrations of spermine were required to significantly change the EOF (up to 1 m M). The very low adsorption coefficients ( M − cm −1) of spermine [ ϵ 200=250, ϵ 210=35] and spermidine [ ϵ 200=118, ϵ 210=3] at low UV wavelengths makes them useful as usrface-charge modification agents when using UV detection, and their low conductivity makes them suitable for use with conductivity detection.

Arby's Restaurant Group / service and wrong food.
Yesterday I picked up some Arbys for myself and my family. It was 5:56 (on my ticket), and VERY slow. The lady at the counter taking my order acted as she didn't want to take my order and reluctantly took it. I warned her I had a large order and she rolled her eyes. She took my order (I also retold 3 times and checked to make sure she had it correct). It took 45 minutes to FINALLY receive my order, and it was wrong. Everyone was VERY slow, very rude...but when it came to everyone else that came in, it was super fast and with a smile. Even when I had to purchase something separate, I waited 10 minutes while the cashier stood there talking to co-workers. The food was VERY sloppy put together, it's just so strange that something put together so fast took 45 minutes...while they were THAT slow. I feel extremely disrespected.

Fair trade critiques the historical inequalities inherent in international trade and seeks to promote social justice by creating alternative networks linking marginalized producers (typically in the global South) with progressive consumers (typically in the global North). The first of its kind, this volume brings together 43 of the foremost fair trade scholars from around the world and across the social sciences. The Handbook serves as both a comprehensive overview and in-depth guide to dominant perspectives and concerns. Chapters analyze the rapidly growing fair trade movement and market, exploring diverse initiatives and organizations, production and consumption regions, and food and cultural products. Written for those new to fair trade as well as those well versed in this domain, the Handbook is an invaluable resource for scholars and practitioners interested in global regulation, multi-stakeholder initiatives, social and environmental certification, ethical labeling, consumer activism, and international development.

Source: Red Bulls turn down request to honor De Ro if he scores 100th goal Sunday
By Kristian R. Dyer

If D.C. United midfielder Dwayne De Rosario scores his 100th Major League Soccer goal on Sunday evening at Red Bull Arena, the league would like the game halted to honor the accomplishment. The Red Bulls declined the request from MLS to honor a former player now playing for the club’s deepest rival.
A league source, speaking to BigAppleSoccer.com on the condition of anonymity, said that MLS has made the request of the Red Bulls to stop the match should the Canadian international score two goals to reach the century mark.
“The league saw the tribute by the supporters for Juan Pablo Angel when he returned to Red Bull Arena a few weeks ago and they wanted to know if New York would honor DeRosario’s accomplishment,” the source said.
Different time and different place, certainly, as Angel was a club legend and DeRosario’s short tenture with the Red Bulls was mired by inconsistency.
De Rosario is sitting on 98 goals. A former league MVP and six times a member of the MLS Best XI, DeRosario was traded to the Red Bulls from Toronto F.C. last year and played two months with the club, scoring twice before being traded to D.C. He was dealt in June, seemingly never able to settle in with the Red Bulls.
The Red Bulls acquired midfielder Dax McCarty in the trade, who has been a revelation in the New York midfield this season.
The Red Bulls declined comment.
The Red Bulls host United on Sunday night in a match featuring two of the top three teams in the Eastern Conference.
