Cullens Crash holds highest chances to win A1 500m Flat

Those, who watched the L. Cook trained black dog, Cullens Crash, winning the A1 500m Flat a couple of weeks back, are ready to believe that the three-year-old young hound will be able to seal top spot convincingly in the A1 500m Flat that is scheduled to be held at Nottingham racecourse on Monday night, September 3.

The dashing dog will break from the black box to take on five mighty competitors with Salacres Cool being the strong one. Success will earn him ?134.

The talented son of Crash out of Marilyn Mal delivered some impressive performances during the last couple of months.

After winning the A3 500m Flat on July 28, he nicely finished first in the A2 500m Flat that took place on August 3. He stunned all by winning the Betfred Mobile Lotto Maiden Stayers Trophy on August 6.

Interestingly, he had been the best-priced candidate for each of the three races. Then came the energetic hound?s 5-length clean victory which spiked up his confidence level to a great extent.

Cullens Crash stepped ahead to finish 3^rd in each of the two subsequent starts. For most of the times in his career, the brilliant dog has earned favourite tags. Thus, it is anticipated that he will register another sterling success tonight.

But to achieve this end, he will have to have a fierce battle with Salacres Cool who has made many glaring marks in A1 format of the game.

The P. Harnden trained blue dog excellently won the A2 500m Flat on August 6 and stood first in the A1 500m Flat that was held on August 18. In between, he bagged the runner-up rank in the A1 500m Flat.

The son of Disguised out of Lead Boots stood third in his last start on August 24. Relatively, he possesses more experience than Cullens Crash but the latter owns more talent.

In this situation, a stern duel will be witnessed tonight. Let us see how Cullens Crash manages to justify his talent. Good luck to all the six hounds who are lined-up to entertain the sport lovers.

Mormons praise Romney for spotlighting the faith

WOLFEBORO, N.H. (AP) ? Republican Mitt Romney, the first Mormon presidential nominee of a major political party, sat in the Wolfeboro Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Sunday as, one by one, members of his congregation credited him for bringing the faith more into the public eye.

"There has never been as much positive publicity about the church...thanks to the wonderful campaign of Mitt Romney and his family," J.W. "Bill" Marriott, the chairman of Marriott International, said. Marriott was the first in the congregation to take the podium to offer testimony ? examples of his own life experience and how it's affected his faith, a tradition on the first Sunday of every month in the Mormon church.

"Everybody is looking at us and saying, 'Are you as good as the Romneys?'" Marriott said. "Today we see the church coming out of obscurity, and we see that 90 percent of what has been written and said ... 90 percent of it has been favorable," he said. "And that's a great tribute to Mitt and Ann."

Many Americans have long viewed Mormonism skeptically, and the Salt Lake City-based church has fought for decades for recognition and acceptance as a faith.

In the eyes of Mormons gathered here Sunday, Romney winning the nomination has been overwhelmingly positive for their church.

"He's a marvelous ambassador of who we are," said a member of the Archibald family, another large Mormon clan that, like the Marriotts and the Romneys, vacations in Wolfeboro.

The Marriotts and Romneys are close friends; the hotel magnate is a major campaign donor and the candidate used to serve on the board of Marriott International.

Although Romney has long shied away from talking about a faith that has shaped his life, from his childhood to his college years as well as his marriage and business career. He occasionally has recounted his time counseling families who were struggling members of his Boston congregation. He usually doesn't touch on his two years serving as a missionary in France for the church. And he typically doesn't mention that he at one point rose to a rank equivalent to a bishop and presided over a group of congregations.

In recent weeks, Romney has started to open up about his faith and directly mentioned it during his Thursday night acceptance speech after members of his congregation took the convention stage to praise his work in the church. Said Romney that night: "We were Mormons and growing up in Michigan, that might have seemed unusual or out of place, but I really don't remember it that way. My friends cared more about what sports teams we followed than what church we went to."

Mormonism began in the mid-1800s when, according to believers, an angel presented another book of scripture to Joseph Smith, the church's founder, called the Book of Mormon. With 14.4 million members, the church is among the fastest growing in the world, supported by a full-time missionary force of about 55,000 young people.

At church Sunday, Marriott talked about the church's efforts over the years to explain its mission to Americans who don't understand the faith.

He recounted serving on a committee based in Salt Lake City with Romney's father, George Romney, and then later being featured in a "60 Minutes" piece on the Mormon Church. During the interview, Marriott said he was asked about the specific undergarments, which he described as a t-shirt and boxer shorts, that Mormons are encouraged to wear. He said he told interviewer Mike Wallace that he wore the garments, and about a time when he caught fire in a boating accident. His polyester pants burned, though his undershorts were untouched.

Marriott said he told Wallace: "These holy undergarments saved my life."

Later, another church member rose to offer an example of Romney's influence in publicizing the faith.

She recalled a time when she visited a sick church member in the hospital and a non-Mormon nurse asked her why they had come to visit a woman who wasn't a relative.

The woman said she told the nurse she was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

And the nurse, clearly recognizing the faith, responded: "Oh, Mitt! Oh, Mormon!"

Sitting in the pews, Ann Romney laughed.

Solving The Developer Deficit In The Cloud

Editor's note:?Ruben Daniels is CEO and co-founder of Cloud9 IDE, a leading cloud-based Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that enables web and mobile developers to work together and collaborate in remote teams anywhere, anytime. Software is taking over the world. This sentiment has become widely accepted throughout the tech community, most notably examined in depth by Marc Andreessen last year. ?However, as software continues to infiltrate nearly every industry, there?s a serious consequence taking shape. The demand for development continues to grow exponentially, but the amount of qualified developers that are available to produce this commodity is not. Simply put, the world is running out of developers.

Iran scores with summit but wrongfooted by nuclear report

Iran scored a point against Western efforts to isolate it by hosting a summit this week of 120 Non-Aligned Movement countries, but its bid to boost its prestige was wrongfooted by a new report on its controversial nuclear activities, analysts said.

Despite star guests Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi and UN chief Ban Ki-moon strongly criticising Tehran policies during the summit, Iranian leaders and media were describing the event, in the words of the state newspaper Iran, as "the biggest success in Iran's history."

Several outlets saw it as "a diplomatic defeat of the United States and the West" and hailed what they saw as boost to Iran's regional diplomacy.

The summit "enabled Iran to show it still has friends and trade partners despite international efforts to isolate it," one analyst, Dina Esfandiary of Britain's International Institute for Strategic Studies, told AFP.

Smack in the middle of it, though, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) released its latest report on Iran that recorded an increase in the number of uranium enrichment centrifuges.

And it said a clean-up at a suspect military base in Parchin had "hampered" IAEA inspectors' ability to determine whether explosives tests for warheads had taken place.

That paired with Ban telling Iranian leaders that they had to comply with IAEA and UN resolutions, or else Iran faced being excluded from the international community and even risked military action by Israel or the United States.

"Sometimes the timing of international summits makes all the difference, and this was one of those occasions," said Mark Hibbs, a senior nuclear issues analyst at the Carnegie Endowment.

"Iran opened by declaring that its peaceful nuclear programme was the victim of a P5 (UN Security Council) conspiracy, but that narrative ran aground on the IAEA?s finding -- announced right in the middle of the meeting -- that Iran has prevented the IAEA from doing its work."

That, and Ban's remarks, meant "Iran didn?t win this round," he said.

The Islamic republic was further embarrassed by statements from Ban condemning its leaders' anti-Israel remarks, and by him and Morsi -- whom Iran has been reaching out to -- strongly criticising the Syrian regime, a staunch ally of Iran.

Esfandiary, though, said "Iran knew that it would inevitably get some bad press" from those high-profile invitees.

"But Iran judged the benefits of the PR coup to outweigh the negatives. Iran will, for example, play on its tolerance for criticism and its ability to make friends despite differences and detract attention from the release of the IAEA report," she said.

Mohammad Saleh Sedghian, an Iranian analyst at the Arab Centre of Iranian Studies in Tehran, echoed Esfandiary's comments.

"No one should have expected that all the summit participants were going to think and speak the way Tehran wanted," he told AFP

"But in the end, the summit gave a positive image of the Islamic republic, showing it able to welcome 120 nations. And that can help Iran in big international issues" such as the nuclear dispute, he said.

But Alireza Nader, a senior analyst at the US group Rand Corp, said: "I don?t think NAM really enhances Iran?s regional or international position in the long term.

"It may boost the Iranian regime?s image for a little while, but Iran faces a fundamental clash of interests with other NAM states."

Supporting that argument, Nader pointed to Morsi's speech and the decision by major NAM power India to cut back its purchases of Iranian oil in line with US sanctions.

"The NAM summit will not erase pressures the regime faces due to its violation of international norms and its repressive behaviour at home," he said.

Good Customer Service - Ecademy

PART 1
How many of you have gone into a business and were treated in a less than a positive manner? The receptionist was rude, the waiter or waitress acted like you were a burden for them? Have you ever left a business with the distinct impression that you and your business were not appreciated? How did you feel? In the past that type of bad customer service was reserved for government employees but in the last 15 to 20 years that bad attitude is starting to creep into all aspects of our lives. I don't know about you but I was raised to never be rude and to always be courteous, no matter what. I have been involved in customer service for 32 years and I have seen the cultural breakdown occur during that time not just in the employees but also in the customers. It seems that people are angry and do not have very much patience with someone not giving them the exact type of service they expect. My daughter and her fianc? have a paper route; they also each have fulltime jobs. They have had this route for one week and she told me that there is a customer on the route who has called the newspaper the last three days to complain that she was not getting her paper. My daughter told me that she knew that she had left a paper at that house everyday so today she used her cell phone to take a picture with a time/date stamp to prove she left the paper. I thought that my daughter had used current technology to prove she was doing her job was ingenious. I have to admit my advanced age is showing because I had not thought of doing that. My wife is a teacher and we were talking about the difference in the current generations: 1) Baby Boomers 2) Generation X 3) Generation Y. It is fascinating to look at the differences and how the different generations have different attitudes about life. It has caused me to rethink how and what I need to do when it comes to training my employees. Customer service was something I was raised to give just in my daily communication with people. That is not the current way the younger people are being raised so as a businessperson you have to focus training on these young people so that they become exposed to the concept of good customer service.

Eight Apple products rumored for this year

Just in case there wasn't enough speculation surrounding the new iPhone and iPad, the latest rumor has it that Apple will release them along with a whopping six other new products this year.

According to Apple Insider, Ming-Chi Kuo from KGI Securities suspects that Apple will add new models to its iMac, MacBook Pro, and iPod lines throughout the fall.

It will start in September, with the oft-rumored September 12 event where Kuo believes Apple will announce a new 21.5-inch iMac and a 13-inch MacBook Pro with retina display. While the new iMac isn't expected to have a retina display, it will reportedly feature a brand new design as its main draw.

September will also supposedly see the release of the highly anticipated iPhone 5 and a new revision to the iPod Touch. No details were revealed on what to expect from the new iPod Touch, but it will likely carry many of the same improvements and new features as the new iPhone.

A full fall for Apple

October is expected to be equally busy for Apple, according to the same KGI Securities report.

Early in the month Apple is expected to launch a new iPod Nano with wireless capabilities to download music directly from the iTunes store.

Much has been said already about the rumored iPad Mini, and according to KGI Securities a new regular-sized iPad will join it on store shelves in October. The new iPad will reportedly remain essentially the same as the current model, with the key difference coming from support for the new smaller dock connector that will be introduced with the iPhone 5 and iPad Mini.

Apple's final new product will be a new 27-inch iMac. The new iMacs are expected to use a new "full lamination process" to fuse the display panel with the glass. However, the process is apparently more taxing for a larger 27-inch display than for the 21.5-inch model, which is why KGI Securities believes the larger model will launch in October rather than September.

KGI securities paints an impressively full schedule lined up for Apple. Of course, it all comes without official word from Apple, so we'll have to wait until the September mystery event to see how it all pans out.
