251. Insider: Supermarkets Have Less Than One Day Supply Of Food On Hand November 17, 2013 (Thomas Dishaw) Most of you have read about or witnessed the chaotic scenes in supermarkets that ensued over the weekend due to the national EBT card outage. In Louisiana barbaric savages filled carts to the brim after learning their accounts had no limits and could steal hundreds of dollars of food with no consequences. Hopefully this was a wake up call to everyday citizens that preparedness is a strategy we need to be instituting in our ever so busy and chaotic lives. I wish I had good news to share with our readers, but the situation at hand is way worse than one could ever imagine, this a... (read more) Author: THOMAS DISHAW

252. TSA Megalomaniacs Are Here To Dominate, Intimidate and Control You November 17, 2013 (Thomas Dishaw) Over the years the TSA has incrementally managed to intrude many areas of our lives. Inherited powers that were granted to us by The Constitution and Bill of Rights have now strategically been thrown out the window to protect you and your family from a fake war on terror. Unbeknownst to most the situation is much deeper than that. The TSA is here to intimidate you psychologically and physically, just examine their secret motto 쳌Dominate. Intimidate. Control,쳌 which is hidden at the TSA™s air martial training center, strategically kept off of badges and insignia, and away f... (read more) Author: THOMAS DISHAW

253. Letter to Sen. Inhofe November 15, 2013 Dear Senator Inhofe: 03/17/12 I read books, but usually books I find at the library, so they may not be the most current. I was not aware until recently that you had written, "The Greatest Hoax." If global warming is a hoax, I still rather suspect that a greater hoax is the Theory of Evolution. Man didn't come from monkeys, God created us. Garrison Keillor has a weekly radio program, "A Prairie Home Companion." Several months ago, he reported that a Northwest passage has been found, which is what Christopher Columbus was looking for when he bumped into Nor... (read more) Author: Frederick Hoehn

254. Letter to Prime Minister November 15, 2013 04/22/2011 Dear Japanese Prime Minister: We have seen on the news about the devastation in Japan from the earthquake and tsunami, with the resulting damage to the nuclear power generation facilities. I hope that your nation is well down the road to recovery. I would like to suggest that it may not be the best investment to put money into more nuclear power generation facilities, since they may not last long enough to justify the expenditure. Conventional coal burning power generation might be a better short-term strategy. I was in Japan several times in the 1960's, as... (read more) Author: Frederick Hoehn

255. Greek Default November 15, 2013 Greece’s Recent Debt Default 03/11/12 by Frederick Hoehn, copyright 2012. In a recent news item, Greece has defaulted on its debt. One problem is government workers that collect a paycheck but are not working a full week. Another problem Greece has, apparently, is failure to enforce tax laws. I read of a traveler to Greece who purchased something there. After the purchase, they asked for a receipt. They were told, “Oh, if you want a receipt, we’ll have to charge you the higher price that includes sales tax. Apparently, this is widespread in Greece, that the government is being cheated ...

256. Damned if You Don't November 15, 2013 By Frederick Hoehn, copyright 2013. We have an expression, “Damned if you do, and damned if you don’t.” It came up recently on TV regarding the decision the President was making whether to strike the regime of Bashar Al Assad in Syria or not. There is an unpleasant set of possible results if we do, and also if we don’t. But with God, you’re only damned if you don’t get born again. In John chapter 3, Jesus said, “You must be born again.” You get born again when you believe the gospel message that Jesus never sinned, died on the cross for our sins, and that God rais...

257. Whistleblower Reward Programs Could Help Regain Funds From Tax Dodgers November 15, 2013 According to statistics from the California Franchise Tax Board, the state is owed approximately 6.5 billion dollars in unpaid taxes. Some contend that a partial solution to the problem would be to implement a whistleblower rewards program to encourage people to report tax fraud. California whistleblower and securities attorneys think that implementing the program could help to recoup lost tax revenue. IRS whistleblower California attorneys agree. The California state legislature passed bills that allow both the Franchise Tax Board and Board of Equalization to give awards to whistlebl... (read more) Author: Ingrid Evans

258. Primary Tooth Eruption Disorders November 15, 2013 Tooth eruption in children is often accompanied by various changes in behavior and general condition, which greatly disturbs the parents. There are the symptoms that should alert the adults when observed in a child. The parents or caretakers must be sure to consult a pediatrician if there are such signs of tooth eruption in children: • high temperature; • vomiting; • diarrhea; • running nose; • cough; • skin rash; • seizures; • constant drowsiness; • prolonged irritability, moodiness. Most children tolerate the growth of teeth without fever; fever is the sign of the more serious... (read more) Author: Ismam Khan babu

259. "I don't have insurance. Can I file a personal injury claim?" November 15, 2013 Orlando Motorcycle Attorney, Orlando Motorcycle AttorneysEven if you don’t have insurance, you can file a personal injury claim if the other party is at fault. In fact, your insurance company may not even come into play, since the at-fault driver’s insurance often will be the one to pay for your damages. Some of these damages include property, medical, and lost wages. Filing the claim will proceed as if you had insurance and will include gathering up evidence to prove both your injury and other party’s negligence. Take photographs of your injuries and get a copy of the police report, in... (read more) Author: Chatter Buzz

260. Finding a UID provider that can help from start to finish November 15, 2013 With so many different methods available for applying a Unique Identifier symbol to equipment produced for the military, a defense contractor might easily start to feel overwhelmed. Therefore it can be a good idea to find a vendor that offers a variety of UID solutions — and can provide advice on which methods work best for a particular application. One such supplier is ID Integration Inc. (id-integration.com). This company offers direct marking methods for applying the 2-D Data Matrix UID symbol to equipment. For example, they can supply a programmable, dot peen stamper that supports tex... (read more) Author: Edward Brewe

261. Mys.tified by IUID requirements? Turn to the experts for help November 15, 2013 Many defense contractors are experts in a particular field of engineering, such as aerospace, vehicle, electrical or industrial engineering. What they might not be experts on are defense department requirements for Unique Identification (UID) labeling of items being supplied to the military. Item Unique Identification (IUID) is a system in which each piece of equipment receives a unique identifier that remains with the item throughout its life, greatly enhancing the military’s ability to track the equipment. Identifying information is contained in a 2D Data Matrix symbol that is appl... (read more) Author: Edward Brewe

262. UID labeling involves many steps: From design to IUID verification November 15, 2013 Department of Defense contractors have many details to think about when determining how to comply with the department’s Item Unique Identification (IUID) requirements. The IUID program involves the marking of individual pieces of equipment with a Unique Identification (UID) that stays with the item throughout its life. The marking is accomplished using a 2D Data Matrix symbol that is read with an automated scanner. Decisions to be made include how the UID labels will be applied to the item; where the labels will be located; and the size of the mark. Finally, IUID verification is needed to...

263. Check compliance of your unique identification labels through IUID verification November 15, 2013 Much effort goes into designing unique identification (UID) labels for equipment to be used by the military. How to label the items, where to place the 2D Data Matrix symbol that contains the Item Unique Identifier (IUID), what size the symbol should be and what information it should contain are all issues that must be evaluated. But at the end of the process, what really matters is whether the symbol can be read by machines designed to do so. An IUID verification system,such as those available throughID IntegrationInc.,will assess the readability of the Data Matrix symbols in addition to dat... (read more) Author: Edward Brewe

264. High-quality labels ensure UID compliance November 15, 2013 Labels that last a lifetime. That is a key component of the Item Unique Identification system, or IUID, developed by the U.S. Department of Defense. The idea is to mark each piece of DoD equipment with a Unique Identifier (UID) so the department can track the asset throughout its life cycle. The identifier is contained within a 2-D Data Matrix symbol that is applied to the asset. The identifier is entered into the DoD’s IUID registry, a database that also contains information about each item, such as its date of purchase, location, maintenance history and other details. The system allows ... (read more) Author: Edward Brewe

265. Reasons for IUID requirements are many November 15, 2013 Contractors supplying equipment to the military are likely aware of requirements for Item Unique Identification of each piece of equipment they produce. The Department of Defense requires the identification, in the form of a 2-D data matrix symbol, for each piece of equipment valued at $5,000 or more, and in some cases, items of lesser value. The machine-readable code allows tracking of the asset throughout its life. But contractors might be less familiar with the reasons the IUID program was implemented. The IUID requirements were spurred by concern from government auditors that fed... (read more) Author: Nancy Malone

266. A good scanner aids in IUID implementation November 15, 2013 The defense department system of using Item Unique Identification (IUID) tags to label individual pieces of equipment has become a valuable method of tracking assets throughout their lifetime, no matter where they are located across the globe. These tags, which are in the form of 2D data matrix symbols, contain basic identifying information about the item. As spelled out in the U.S. Defense Department’s MIL-STD-130,information contained in the unique item identifier may include the issuing agency code, enterprise ID, part number and serial number. An IUID scanner is used to read the code and... (read more) Author: Nancy Malone

267. IUID standards have common purpose November 15, 2013 NATO’s ability to bring together the military forces of its 28 member countries to achieve a common goal is extremely powerful. There are, of course, a number of challenges when it comes to joining many disparate organizations to work together. One area where this becomes apparent is in the sharing of defense equipment. It can be difficult for just one defense department to keep track of all its assets, which may have lifetimes of decades and are spread among worldwide operations. Loaning the equipment to other organizations adds an additional layer of complexity. Defense departments ... (read more) Author: Nancy Malone

268. Make sure your UID labels pass the test November 15, 2013 Trust but verify. That well-known phrase typically applies to U.S. foreign affairs. But it could also come to mind among defense contractors who are dealing with requirements for Item Unique Identification (IUID) of products they produce for the military. IUID requires contractors to label each piece of equipment they make for the military with a Unique Identifier, or UID, that facilitates tracking of the item throughout its lifetime. The requirement is met by placing a 2-D Data Matrix symbol on the equipment, which contains the identifying information in a specific format. (ID Integratio... (read more) Author: Nancy Malone

269. Determining what defense equipment needs a Unique Identifier November 14, 2013 The first question a defense contractor might ask when it comes to marking equipment produced for the military with a Unique Identifier (UID) is, what items need to be marked? In general, the equipment must be marked if the DoD’s acquisition cost is $5,000 or more for each item. But there are also some cases in which assets costing less than $5,000 must be marked. The product’s buyer will look at the less costly items on a case-by-case basis to determine if they’re mission-essential, controlled inventory items for which life-cycle traceability is essential. Any requirement for UID markin... (read more) Author: Thomas Henderson

270. RFID Provides Benefits to Numerous Industries November 14, 2013 Today, there are a wide range of benefits for RFID technology to provide advantages to a large variety of business sectors. For example, imagine the potential benefit of companies using this innovative form of Automated Data Capture in major industry, law enforcement, transportation, among many other uses. This number continues to grow as this technology evolves to become more intelligent, more affordable, and versatile. RFID enables drivers to quickly zip through a toll booth when equipped with a prepaid pass. This works well because one of the primary advantages of RFID, is in the fac...

271. TegoView streamlines ATA Spec 2000 RFID compliance November 14, 2013 The Air Transport Association’s Spec 2000 standards call for labeling of aircraft parts so they can be tracked throughout their lifetime. RFID is an increasingly popular method of doing this, as the tags can be read with an automated reader without a direct line of site to the tag. The tags are durable and can withstand a range of environments. In addition, RFID tags are available with different amounts of memory. The high-memory tags in particular are able to contain more information than other types of labels. ATA Spec 2000 contains a number of details that must be followed in using these RF...

272. Boost your business through government contracts November 14, 2013 Most businesses would be foolish not to take a look at government contracting as a potential source of revenue. The U.S. federal government spends more than $500 billion per year buying goods and services from outside vendors. Because the government doesn’t produce any products on its own, it turns to the private sector to obtain everything from staplers to multi-million-dollar machinery. One of the first steps for someone interested in doing business with the federal government is to register as a contractor through uscontractorregistration.com. You’ll be required to provide a DUNS numbe... (read more) Author: Thomas Henderson

273. UID standards delve into all the details November 14, 2013 Imagine dozens of defense departments trying to determine what military equipment is available to share and where it is located. This is a challenge faced by NATO and its 28 member countries. To address this challenge, NATO has turned to the Unique Identification of Items, or UID, system for labeling and tracking mission-critical equipment. Items are labeled with a 2D Data Matrix symbol that contains a Unique Item Identifier (UII). An automated scanner is used to read the Data Matrix and retrieve an item’s identifier. The UII is entered into a registry, which can contain other critical de... (read more) Author: Lance Edwards

274. Letter to Beschloss November 14, 2013 By Frederick Hoehn, copyright 2012. 09/02/12 Dear Mr. Beschloss: You were on TV today, on C-Span2. During the program, a quotation from one of your books was put on the TV screen in which you referred to Khruschev as the AntiChrist. History books are supposed to be non-fiction, Mr. Beschloss, but that statement is fiction. But you might wish to characterize the statement as a metaphor or other figure of speech, however, a better way to characterize it is bad theology and false doctrine that might lead readers astray theologically, and perhaps help to send some to hell...

275. A Two State Solution for Palestine? November 14, 2013 by Frederick Hoehn, copyright 2011. Recently at the United Nations, there was a vote about Palestine. The vote was somewhat favorable toward Palestine, while falling short of statehood for Palestine. There are those who advocate a "two state solution" to the Middle East problems. From what I've read, it seems former President, Jimmy Carter, is one of those. This is rather surprising, since it was my understanding that Carter was a Christian. He may actually be a Christian, but perhaps he has allowed his experience as President to color his views about Israel. (“Don’t lea... (read more) Author: Frederick Hoehn
