DELAND, Fla. _ The Lipscomb Bisons will be playing for their first ever Atlantic Sun Baseball Championship.
The Bisons, the No. 1 seed, beat Gardner-Webb, the No. 4-seed, 8-2 Saturday afternoon here at Melching Field at Conrad Park. It was the first tournament loss for Gardner-Webb.
Who the Bisons will play and when are both unknown at this point. Belmont and Gardner-Webb were scheduled to play at 2 Saturday. If Belmont wins that game then they will meet the Bisons Saturday night for the championship and the conference's automatic berth in the NCAA Tournament.
However, if Gardner-Webb beats Belmont the championship game would be delayed until Sunday. NCAA rules will not allow a baseball team to play three games in one day.
If the Bisons win the tournament championship they would be the first No. 1 seed to accomplish that feat since UCF did it in 2002. They are just the third team under the six-team format adopted in 1996 to advance to Championship Saturday in only their second tournament appearance. The others are Florida Atlantic and Troy, both former members of the conference.

There's still no word on the exact spec. It is said to feature a screen in the 4- to 5-inch range, a mostly metal body, Beats Audio and GDR3 update for Windows Phone. We'd be terribly disappointed if we didn't see an Ultrapixel camera as well.
The HTC One sports a 4.7-inch 1080p display, while the 8X has a 4.3-inch 720p display, so there's certainly room for a bigger screen on the new Windows flagship. In addition, GDR3 should finally bring support for 1080p displays, which could allow HTC to borrow the One's impressive screen for the new phone.
HTC's killer WP8 phone is expected to launch this fall, reports Neowin.

John R. Baur is vice president at Eaton Vance Management and portfolio manager of the Diversified Currency Income Fund (EZIIX).
Why should individuals invest in a currency mutual fund?
BAUR: People are concerned about the future of the US dollar and about the Fed's overly expansive monetary policy.
One way to benefit from that is through exposure to foreign currencies in countries where the central bank is not as aggressively expanding the money supply and where the government executes a better fiscal policy.
There, you can expect better growth and currency appreciation and you can earn local interest rates that can be substantially higher than rates in the US.
Quantify the difference between what you could earn locally versus internationally right now?
BAUR: It varies from country to country. For example, in some Asian countries, interest rates on government-issued bonds are maybe at 2%.
If you look in Latin America, interest rates range from about 4% to as much as 10% in good countries. In Africa—Nigeria and Ghana, for example—interest rates are in the 15% to 20% range—with additional risk, of course.
What exactly is the fund investing in that generates interest?
BAUR: Either through short-term government securities—essentially T-bills issued by a foreign government in its own market and denominated in its own currency—or you're getting that exposure through foreign currency forwards—a contract to buy or sell a specified currency at a specified price on a specific date.
In theory, a foreign currency forward gives you exactly the same risk and return profile as a local-market T-bill.
What are the risks and how do you mitigate them?
BAUR: There's risk that a particular currency could experience a significant devaluation. So where we see that the politics or the economic fundamentals are bad, we try to avoid those currencies.
There's also risk of a broad-based dollar rally when things are going badly in the world because the dollar is a safe-haven currency. Also, foreign currency forwards are an easy way to get exposure to currencies. It takes more effort to invest in the actual government securities.
But these days, the actual securities often yield more than forwards, so you're taking the same risk but for a better return. Thus, buying the actual securities essentially minimizes that risk.
Settlement of securities can also involve risk. Our trading desk operates 24 hours a day and trades directly in local markets to get the best prices and avoid that risk.
Is there a "best" currency to be invested in?
BAUR: In the long run, currencies tend to be driven more by growth prospects. So in a multiyear horizon, we think many countries have better growth prospects than the U.S. That's what drives currency appreciation over the medium to long term.
Mexico, Peru, India, Malaysia, and Sri Lanka are very attractive. Sweden, Serbia, and Norway are also good. We're trying to provide broadly diversified currency exposure. Our fund policy is to keep all country exposures under 5%.
We also limit exposure to the euro. Most currency investors actually have very large explicit or implicit euro exposure. We don't. We trade western and eastern European currencies versus the euro, which has the effect of significantly reducing volatility in our fund.
As an investor, is it difficult to essentially create my own currency fund?
BAUR: Even for sophisticated individuals, currency instruments can be complicated. Given our experience, they're simple, but in conversations I've had, it's clear that something as simple as a foreign currency forward is not well understood. The learning curve is steep.
In addition, to buy short-term government securities, you need to open an account in every country in which you want to purchase these securities. That's a significant logistical hurdle.
Keeping track of political and economic events in countries around the world is also more difficult than paying attention to what's going on in a stock portfolio.
How much of an investor's portfolio should be in currencies?
BAUR: Investors are systematically underweight in foreign currency exposure. Today, you would want to have between 10% and 20% of your portfolio invested in foreign currency denominated instruments.
In the traditional 60% equities and 40% fixed income portfolio, between ¼ and ½ of the fixed income portion should be in foreign currencies. If the Fed funds rate were at 5%, then I would back off my currency exposure to the 5% to 10% range.
How can an investor evaluate a currency fund?
BAUR: It's not straightforward, partly because currency funds are relatively new, and different managers do significantly different things.
Some focus exclusively on G10 currencies like the euro, the yen, and the British pound. Others focus on emerging markets currencies. Some, like us, invest across the universe.
So, first of all, understand what the fund's investment universe is. Then understand the managers' investment styles.
Are they short-term traders who are likely to have relatively volatile funds, or are they long-term investors who are trying to manage the volatility and benefit from longer-term trends?
Finally, what returns has the manager produced given the risks?
[Editor: Over the last one-, three-, and five-year periods, the fund has earned 6.05%, 2.05%, and 5.24%, respectively. In contrast, the Barclays Capital Global Ex-USD Index has returned 1.89%, 1.46%, and 1.33% over the same periods.]
What's your best advice for someone who wants to invest in currencies?
BAUR: Buy a currency fund. You need exposure to foreign currencies. Your currency exposure should be managed rather than passive.
The currency space has significant inefficiencies you want to take advantage of. Those inefficiencies create opportunity for active managers to make profits.
You won't benefit from those inefficiencies if you take a passive approach to currency investing.
What attracted you to this investment style?
BAUR: It brings together three things that I'm passionate about. It's economics, politics, and geopolitics all wrapped up in one.
Every day I come to work and get to study what's happening around the world. I feel privileged to be in a position to do that.
"10 Questions About Currency Investing: An Interview with John R. Baur" was written by Gregory Taggart.

The Eleven Best Things About Being A Giants Fan! #6 Catchy Slogans
In a new feature to commemorate the 2012 season, we will be counting down the eleven best things about being a Giants fan!
#6 . Catchy Slogans
From "Fear the Beard" to "Let Timmy Smoke" to even "Torture" the Giants have some of the best slogans to describe the team and the way that they play, bar none.
These slogans have made for some excellent t-shirts, signs around the park and some awesome ideas for novelty wearables. Although I should caution you, some non true Giants fans that obsess over statistics and rarely watch the actual game have tried to start a slogan on Twitter using these hashtag thingy-ma-doodles called #FreeBelt, as a true fan you can disregard this without giving it a second thought.
Getting back on the subject at hand, I thought that maybe the Giants have peaked with their creative sloganeering prowess during the run to the World Series but I don't know if you have seen this year's commercial and slogan and it just blows everything done previously out of the water.
Here take a look:
The Giants are a bunch of crazy kooky characters and the way that the fans and the team have embraced them is simply amazing and that makes it at number 6 best thing about being a Giants fan.

Back in the early days of President Ronald Reagan's tenure, the USDA, as a part of proposed budget cuts, issued a proposal that would have reclassified condiments like ketchup and pickle relish as vegetables, a move that would have allowed public schools to cut out a serving of cooked or fresh vegetable from hot lunch program child-nutrition requirements. It never passed because it's obviously so ridiculous—but isn't it a hilarious gaff? They must not have known about childhood obesity in the 1980s! Wait—what is that you say? A few weeks ago Congress dismissed USDA healthy school lunch reform proposals and decided to count pizza sauce as a vegetable?!
Yes. It's no joke—although this move by Congress has been mocked extensively by critics, including SNL's Seth Meyers and Kermit the Frog. Congress' decision to place pizza sauce among the ranks of broccoli and spinach came on the heels of the USDA's new healthy school lunch proposals, which predictably drew criticism from the food industry lobby. Among the controversial changes proposed were:
- Limits on starchy vegetables to two servings a week. However, at the behest of the potato lobby, the Senate passed an amendment to the USDA's appropriations bill to block any restrictions on potatoes.
- Preventing tomato paste on pizza from counting as a vegetable.
I guess we'll skip the semantics (tomatoes are actually fruits, but in arguments this ridiculous it's wise to pick your battles). But pizza is mostly cheese and white flour, not tomato sauce, and tomato sauce is hardly tomatoes and in fact tends to include shockingly high concentrations of sodium and sugar. The leap of faith required to label pizza a vegetable is totally illogical and downright dangerous to the health of our children.
Back in the Reagan days, the administration got tomatoes tossed in its face by Congress for proposing something so clearly not in the best interest of school children. So what's with today's Congress undermining the Obama administration's efforts to improve school lunch? The bottom line: dollar signs and the frozen pizza lobby. It's ok to laugh a little at this—yes, there is a frozen pizza lobby. Unfortunately they carry enough weight (ahem, money) with Congress that our representatives can turn a blind eye to the fact that the percentage of children aged 6–11 years in the United States who were obese increased from 7% in 1980 to nearly 20% in 2008. Similarly, the percentage of adolescents aged 12–19 years who were obese increased from 5% to 18% over the same period. This has contributed to the skyrocketing number of children with pre-diabetes or diabetes, and conditions later in life such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, several types of cancer and osteoarthritis. Now, one third of children in the US are overweight or obese—and most of these children receive 40 percent of their daily calories from school lunches.
Given the situation, what kind of person could lobby against healthier school lunches? We at Ecocentric are not in the business of figuring out what makes junk food lobbyists tick, but however these guys manage to sleep at night, the food industry spent $5.6 million lobbying against the new rules. As part of their campaign, they preyed on the fears of school officials, especially the ones in big cities, who were concerned about how the changes might affect their ability to feed impoverished students. The changes were expected to increase the costs of school lunch by 14 cents, which isn't a huge amount when one takes the long view, because in the end, the medical bills of an obese generation will end up costing the taxpayer more.
Lobbyist groups, disregarding this logic, claimed that the changes would infringe on "choice," saying the federal government shouldn't have the right to tell schools what they serve in cafeterias (apparently, this job falls to industrial food companies with dollar signs in their eyes). And here's an irritating reminder for all you outraged parents and taxpaying citizens—we're footing the bill for these programs!
In addition, healthier kids fed more nutritional lunches are better prepared to learn – so it stands to reason that kids fed less nutritious meals will do poorly in school and maybe too undereducated to get a decent job with benefits like healthcare, thus costing taxpayers more in the future, too. This is clearly an issue with deeper repercussions than kids not being given the "choice" (bear in mind that the USDA was not even seeking to ban pizza from school lunch – even we think that would be pretty radical – just to keep it classified as what it is, mostly starch and fat) to eat unhealthy lunches, and one that parents and educators alike can get behind. Together, as concerned citizens, we make up a large and potentially quite powerful interest group, and maybe we can pry Congress away from the stale, greasy grasp of the frozen pizza lobby and get them back on the side of the children they vowed to protect.

Positano, Italy
Photos from my honeymoon in Italy near Naples. We stayed in the small village of Positano and took day trips to Pompei and Rome. Positano was GREAT and we would go back every year if we could. We would even stay in the same hotel and in the same room time after time -- they were that good. Positano is like Martha's Vineyard in a way. It's not easy to get to and it's geared for tourists but it's not as busy as the tourist traps in Rome and Naples. Everyone spoke passable English but they smiled when spoken to in Italian. The food was excellent with locally produced buffalo mozzarella and ham. We didn't try any wine but I'm sure it was excellent. Positano is also know for its Limoncello - an alcoholic drink that is ten times stronger but has the same flavor as a margarita.Read More

I have a theory the models win, jeff and luke 2nd not far behind and cowboys get really lost and come in third. and we say bye bye to jeff and luke nathan and tyler this week due to a u-turn <3
And a final sewing challange proves to be a disaster for all.
Before they get to Perth, the teams compete in Singapore where Renae is once again forced to confront her crippling fear of heights in a 55-storey tightrope crossing. If she and Sam make it through, it would give them the advantage of racing in their home town in the final.
Would this place be Gangaramaya Temple?
Promo here.Not too much new is shown, just that Matt, Tyler and Jeff are doing the Sewing RB.And this definitely is the penultimate leg and final elimination leg, as the promo voiceover says, "because whoever makes it through this (meaning the RB task) will running to be the first ever winner of the Amazing Race Australia".
I think that this leg in Sri Lanka is a Yield + TBC.

The Kiowa County Commissioners held a special meeting last Thursday to inspect an approximate six-mile stretch of the Mullinville blacktop. Road and bridge officials have been negotiating with representatives from Excelon over costs associated with its repair. The special meeting came after Kiowa County Road And Bridge Supervisor Gunnar Stauth and Excelon Representative Dan Bloom could not agree on an amount.
The Kiowa County Commissioners held a special meeting last Thursday to inspect an approximate six-mile stretch of the Mullinville blacktop. Road and bridge officials have been negotiating with representatives from Excelon over costs associated with its repair. The special meeting came after Kiowa County Road And Bridge Supervisor Gunnar Stauth and Excelon Representative Dan Bloom could not agree on an amount.
The county entered into an agreement with Infinity Wind Power in 2011 prior to the construction phase of the 40-tower wind farm south of U.S. 54 in Mullinville known as the Shooting Star Wind Farm. Infinity sold the wind farm to Excelon in 2011.
Terms of that contract stipulate that county officials and Excelon enter into "good faith negotiations" and come to an agreement on how much Excelon would reimburse county taxpayers for damage to county roads.
"We've been good neighbors," said Bloom, who accompanied the commissioners on their tour. "I hope we can walk away from this with both sides satisfied."
The commissioners toured a long stretch of the road, from the Mullinville Cenex station south, past the properties on which the towers were constructed.
The Blattner Energy building, the construction staging and supply yard and access roads are all located on the 6.7 stretch of blacktop. Blattner Energy is a sub-contractor of Excelon.
Commissioners Ron Freeman, John Unruh and Don Richards took the tour as well as Kiowa County Clerk Carmen Renfrow, Bloom and Stauth.
The party made multiple stops, during which Stauth pointed to significant damage in the roads. There were sections of the road that appeared to have significant edge cracking, cross cracking and rutting.
Rutting is when there are long stretches of "bumps" on the road typically caused by frequent and prolonged travel by heavier-than-normal loads.
At each stop Bloom argued that Excelon should not have to pay the entire cost of the road repairs.
He said that while Excelon acknowledged that construction had done some damage to the road, that normal travel and local farm equipment had also contributed to the damage.
Excelon did not agree with Stauth's estimate of $890,000, the cost to patch significant portions of the road as well as a 2-inch overlay along the first 6.6 miles. Patching was estimated at 758 sq. yards.
Stauth received the estimate from Heft & Sons, a local contractor.
Excelon hired Ana Mijares, of the Denver, Colo., based Arcadis to produce a counter estimate. Mijares, who also accompanied the commissioners, submitted an estimate well below Stauth's estimate.
The Arcadis estimate included only 507 sq yards for patching, 1,760 square yards of Bituminous surface treatment (BST) and 2,600 feet of 1.5 inch overlay.
BST, also known as "chipseal," is known as a short-term treatment for damaged roadways.
While Excelon contends that Arcadis' estimate was produced by a "third party," Arcadis was paid by Excelon and the companies have a long history of working together. They have done extensive work for Excelon as well as its subsidiary Commonwealth Edison, an upper-Midwest power company.
Mijares said her estimate was based on videos taken prior to and after construction by Excelon and county officials and in-person inspection of the road.
Mijares and Bloom both said that their estimate missed certain damage and that their estimate did not include everything.
"Excelon has no intention of being disingenuous," said Bloom, acknowledging the mistakes.
Stauth dismissed the numbers as being biased. "She was supposed to be independent and she is not."
"It's hard to be unbiased when you are getting paid by [Excelon]," said Unruh as a meeting after the tour.
Stauth said that most of the road is in need of immediate repair. He said that the cracking can damage the base of the road, especially when water freezes and thaws inside the cracks.
When asked if the road could be repaired in any other way besides an overlay, he said it could, but a piece-by-piece digging and repair, would potentially cost more than the overlay. "It's cheaper [to do an overlay] than it is to dig up the entire road," he added. "Bottom line is that they are responsible for 100 percent of their damage to the road."
Commissioner Freeman said he had spoke to local residents about the road.
"They know how much damage has been done. They can tell when they drive a tractor down it, just like if you drove it on a motorcycle."
One of Bloom's biggest argument was that the wind farm will pay a significant amount of taxes during it's life cycle and that the commissioners should take that into account when evaluating the repairs.
"We appreciate what the wind farm will do for the county," said Freeman during the tour. "There's one more step you need to take here."
Bloom told the commissioners that he would submit an offer of 3.5 miles of 2-inch overlay and the county estimate of 758 sq. yards for patching.
Stauth said he had yet to receive the offer, which was requested in writing, early Tuesday afternoon.
"They signed the agreement," commented Freeman. "That's what they said they'd do. I think they should be held to it."

Got Garbage?
Compost: a combination of decomposed plants and animal materials and other organic materials that are being decomposed largely through aerobic decomposition into a rich black soil.
Ever think your daydreaming might be a waste of time? The procrastination that strikes suddenly and with paralyzing force a loss of opportunity?
Maybe not.
Deb posted a fascinating account of a conference she attended. In it, author Ursula LeGuin spoke about compost, and how it's similar to what happens in our writing lives.
LeGuin is quoted as saying,
"Compost needs silence, darkness, time and patience."
Which ingredient do you find easiest to find? Which is more elusive? Is the soil of your writing garden dry or rich?

Hmm. At the moment, I have a HUGE compost heap waiting to be sprinkled into a WIP. LOL.
BTW, love this post, and everytime I read it, it reminds me of this quote (from one of my all time FAVE books):
"All my life and all my experience, the events that have befallen me, the people I have known, all my memories, dreams, fantasies, everything I have ever read, all of that has been chucked onto the compost heap, where over time it has rotted down to a dark, rich, organic mulch. The process of cellular breakdown makes it unrecognizable. Other people call it the imagination. I think of it as a compost heap. Every so often I take an idea, plant it in the compost, and wait. It feeds on the black stuff that used to be a life, takes its energy for its own. It germinates,. Takes root. Produces shoots. And so on and so forth, until one fine day I have a story, or a novel....Readers are fools. They believe all writing is autobiographical. And so it is, but not in the way they think. The writer's life needs time to rot away before it can be used to nourish a work of fiction. It must be allowed to decay."

Hmmm...good food for thought.
Patience is hardest for me. I want my writing tree to grow quickly. I want an agent now. To be published now. But I have to give myself time to cultivate the skills necessary. It takes a lot of watering for plants to grow. And the soil has to be ready.

Great quote! And so true. I think the easiest - at least right now - is the silence. The time and patience are another story. :)

No doubt about it - time is the hardest ingredient to find. The easiest is silence.

Love it! I hadn't heard that quote before, but now I'll have to remember it. I think the patience is hardest for me. Sometimes it feels like if I can't capture the idea immediately, I never will, and I start feeling a little twitchy and impatient.

Hmm...I think it takes all of the above to make it work. Writing a story is such a delicate, time-consuming project. It takes careful hands to tend and prune. That is how the see turns into a beautiful sunflower.

Umm, our team IS going to win the Super Bowl next year.
I know that's homerism, and its par for the course here, alot. And, I of all people have been guilty of overselling the Seahawks franchise as contenders. Hell, I could realistically convince anyone that the Seahawks are the best team in the league from the 1989 season on. But, this feels different. There's an ethos of inevitability to this team. It's just GOING to happen.
I dont have to convince myself "well, if this guy plays to potential and no one gets hurt". None of that. Just a very calm and confident assurance that the Seahawks will win 12-14 games and own HFA. It's the same confidence I felt in arguing RW was THE guy from the jump. No stats or disbeliever was going to convince me he wasn't a franchise changing type. I just knew it, as did alot of others.
I've NEVER felt this as a Hawks fan. Never.

Mobile, cloud, social media, and analytics are tools that have given birth to an age where technology has become the foundation of any successful business—a prime driver of market differentiation, business growth, innovation, adaptability, collaboration and profitability. In short, every business is now a digital business, and those in which the full C-suite understands the benefits of digital are those that are likely to be most successful.
Mobility success takes a strong dedication of resources and attention, as well as genuine engagement at the top of the organization. Companies that are committed to building robust mobility capabilities, and that make these capabilities a core part of their operations, appear much more likely to benefit from the promise of this increasingly important growth-generating technology.

NEW YORK ( LowCards.com) -- Enforcement actions against credit card issuers and new mortgage guidelines instituted by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau are in jeopardy. A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals agreed unanimously with Republican lawmakers Jan. 25 that recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board were unconstitutional. These were made on the same day -- Jan. 4, 2012 -- as Robert Cordray's recess appointment to lead the CFPB. Many legal analysts believe Cordray's appointment, if challenged, could also be struck down, as well as all the rules and enforcements enacted during his tenure. That would mean approximately $425 million in enforcement actions against deceptive marketing practices by credit card companies would be invalid. The rules the CFPB created for the mortgage bankers to reduce risk for lenders, as well as rules for debt collectors and payday lenders, would also be invalid. This would undo a year of big accomplishments for the CFPB, including rules meant to give clarity to mortgage lenders and borrowers. This will take time to work its way through courts and appeals. There are also other lawsuits. The State National Bank of Big Spring, Texas, has filed a lawsuit that questions the constitutionality of Corday's appointment, with Feb. 13 being the next deadline for that case. In the meantime, these legal actions could cripple the CFPB. No actions can be taken by the CFPB unless it has a permanent chairman in place, according to the Dodd-Frank law that created the agency. Last week, President Barack Obama re-nominated Cordray for a full term, but this will likely get strong opposition from Republicans.

Mobile app industry booming

Mobile app industry booming
Analysis shows people spend 2 hours each day using apps
A new analysis shows that the mobile app industry is booming, nearly five years after it was created by Apple.
The Wall Street Journal reported that global revenue from app stores is expected to rise 62 percent this year to $25 billion, according to an analysis by Gartner Inc.
According to mobile analytics firm Flurry, consumers are spending about two hours per day using apps on their smartphones. The firm said there's a lot of app turnover as well, with 63 percent of the apps used daily different from those getting daily use a year ago.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Apple and Google have similar offerings in their app stores, but Apple still dominates in terms of money made by more than three to one.

I've had a lovely week - on Thursday I went on a workshop at Art Van Go with Angie Hughes, entitled "Inspired by Klimt" - plenty of opportunity for a bit of glitz and glitter there. Angie showed us what we could create using velvets, silks, bondaweb, transfoils and sweetie papers (and there's always plenty of those in my house, as you know) plus a bit of added glitter and sparkle.
After lunch, when we had created our background, we began the free machine embroidery - and everyone had some beautiful pieces to continue stitching into at home.
The next two are mine - I seem to have moved from little hearts to little houses ..
Oh tell a lie, the hearts are still there ...
A lovely workshop - AND I got to wear one of my exhibition pieces -

The old Darlinghurst gaol is one of Australia's oldest and best preserved examples of colonial sandstone architecture, which over the last two centuries has transformed from a place of abject misery to one of Australia's premier arts institutes. According to legend, the building is haunted by the restless ghosts of some of the 76 people who were executed at the gaol's gallows.
Join us for a lively historical tour, shedding light on the fascinating history of the site and exposing the dark, hidden corners which aren't usually open for public access.
Led by an expert historical guide, the tour takes approximately one hour and includes the historic Cell Block Theatre, the Chapel, the old Governor's residence, the morgue, the flogging wall, the tunnel which was used to process and delouse prisoners and the site of the former gallows.
After the tour, guests will have an opportunity to enjoy the site, as well as the Hangout Café, a relaxing spot to recharge with lunch and coffee.
Tours depart from the Forbes Street Entrance, just next to the Hangout Cafe.

IQUALIF Portugal White Publisher's Description
Our story : IQUALIF was originally developed for professional PHP Marketing using a client-server infrastructure. The transition to a commercial version required a new approach and a complete overhaul of our applications. We then changed to a cross-platform application to minimise development time and maintenance with a view to increase our availability. Our philosophy : To make our programs as easy to use as possible and to focus upon the heart of our business: contact extraction. We adhere to a fundamental theory created by M Niklaus Wirth in 1995, that "the development of software is slower than the accelerated development of hardware" Though computer power continues to increase, the same cannot be said of computer programs. The user experience is often taken as a reference, instead of program performance. Furthermore, economic pressure is pushing companies to develop new products at the expense of the maintenance of existing software Our want to satisfy our customers pushes us to avoid the aforementioned scenario, as the products we provide are designed to be constantly optimised and maintained, so that users can keep their preferred brands over a longer period of time. Our concerns over software optimisation drive us to constantly analyse and remain one step ahead of the competition to ensure our projects and innovation are always superior. Professionals : Our tools are designed to assist you from the very beginning of your trading endeavours. The software range: IQUALIF Contact Page Extractor is dedicated to the creation of call centre traffic. In addition to telemarketing, they are also oriented by conventional prospecting for professional mailing and e-mailing. Our capture software directories originates from MACRO Excel and developments in VBA, ACCESS, PHP, Java, C # and C ++. This allows us to control every step of development of the IQUALIF Contact Page Extractor. The software is currently available in seven versions, Page Fran

"Saturday Night Live" creator Lorne Michaels and NBC are trumpeting their commitment to diversity as they search for a black female cast member, responding to an uproar over the historic lack of African American females on the veteran sketch comedy show.
Auditions of several candidates are reportedly scheduled for Monday on the "SNL" stage.
But if and when "Saturday Night Live" makes good on its promise--which came only after the furor erupted--will the show fall into the "token syndrome" that has befallen other shows and producers who have added blacks to series only when they come under fire?

Fund Managers Seduced by Facebook
Investors who thought they steered clear of Facebook's initial public offering should take a closer look at their mutual funds. At least 160 U.S.-based mutual funds and exchange-traded funds bought shares of Facebook in May, Joe Light reports. (Photo: AP/Nasdaq via Facebook, Zef Nikolla)

... the ... lets some of your body might be in it that might mean that you will Facebook ... even if he said I'm staying far away from that stock offering ... but we got to light here to tell us ... how it is that so many mutual funds ended up owning Facebook it was a lot of what was this is the former Sega and unceasing Mitchell funds that picked up the stock so far ... this is as of the and in a store looking at fines that make monthly disclosures ... which is a smaller pool was is multiple most mostly it opens only disclose quarterly so that they will no doubt be even more once the square with the school just now ... but more than half of the initial Pfizer people's for one K plans for talking to the biggest ones in the world ... current Fidelity's Contrafund eighty one billion dollars in assets the peak of ten million shares ... a lot of fun is that people get from brokerage houses a Morgan Stanley Mitchell funds ... had more than five percent of the portfolio is allocated to Facebook so was that that the series allocation of all why would this be an issue someone has a ... technology beach stock mutual fund or a growth stock mutual fund ... should expect that this book in there ... yet definitely a the predominant buyers of Facebook with these Large Cap Growth Mitchell funds which you're expecting ... but the rear for funds that where it doesn't make any sense ... that a full value funds that picked up the stuff in and nobody considers Facebook a value stock at this point that that that that it may be down twenty five do I know I didn't even at twenty five are still the still yes ... exactly ... um does to lease one dividend ... over when ... she enough value stock up on screen here we have some of the big funds that have Facebook Lizzy said Fidelity Contrafund ... Oppenheimer mean streets right ... right rate now is to say that the boy and didn't find that it took the stock obviously Facebook doesn't pay a dividend ... when they do something like that well I mean you you gotta be thinking that a lot of them were expecting that pop right right right after keno ... gotten can have a ... herd mentality where they know that they buy the stock even if the stock to perform well which is in the end of doing right we still be wrong with a lot of other people wouldn't open it and when vendors are most afraid of are being drawn in being alone ... in this case the wrong but with much of the biggest indictment of the industry says that they know they're ... they're afraid that they're under for the benchmark as opposed to ... the freedom to lose your money it's ... no wonder the public to fund managers is they have ... in addition to risking investors' money they have their own rinse their career risk right ... it is the wrong with everybody else and read the fire everybody ... says so in that sense they're ... protecting themselves but back to one thing you mention their Morgan Stanley funds with a lot of this stock ... the Morgan Stanley of course was the lead underwriter of the Facebook offering whatever this in your story this morning it but you know ... this is ... this really does not look good it looks like Morgan Stanley turned to its FundAlarm ... Anson start buying the stock to support the stock may you hope that wasn't happening but that's what it looks like it whatever this is the question what Morgan Stanley declined accounted for the story ... we do know that they also owned a lot of shares before the IPO to seven hundred shares ... so so some cases with these phones it is building off of that existing position ... the manager who took a big stake and Facebook Eisenstadt's Lancz ... ATT was the focus fund so it's not uncommon for him to have to do more than five percent its portfolio allocated to an individual stock ... but having you know a ten percent allocation to Apple which is a huge part of the index were quite different than having it be a seven percent allocation of Facebook ... is a very small part of the index's by dealers company ... well I mean that's the other thing be on Morrison which is surprising is it does look like some EK for thinking he let's get in on hot offering will get the pop and just quickly make cash ... we think is is a lot people for one K's think these funds are in there ... that much steadier in terms of their investment philosophy nowhere when you when you think about a ... core portfolio whole holding with Billy Contrafund ... refined the has no mainstream that I don't know thinking if I would think it ... was the pick of large cap growth stocks ... we got the gift was to get in on IPO you know right after the IPO happens with a huge huge amount of volatility ... so I think that that that that did the par for fund investors is that these funds is still a ... pretty small part of Bahrain

WASHINGTON — If there was any question about how deeply divided Republicans and Democrats are about how to reshape the American health care system, consider that they spent the first few hours of President Obama's much-anticipated health care forum on Thursday arguing over whether they were in fact deeply divided.
The forum played out with Mr. Obama serving as moderator, M.C. and chief defender of Democratic policy prescriptions. He and his fellow Democrats tried to make the case that the two parties were closer than they thought, with the implication that their bill was centrist and would be acceptable to mainstream voters. Republicans countered that the gap was vast, the bill out of touch with what the country wanted, and that Mr. Obama should throw it out and start over. "A dangerous experiment," warned Representative John A. Boehner of Ohio, the House Republican leader.
By day's end, it seemed clear that the all-day televised session might have driven the parties even farther apart. Republicans said there was no way they would vote for Mr. Obama's bill, and Democrats were talking openly about pushing it through Congress on a simple majority vote using a controversial parliamentary maneuver known as reconciliation.
As he wrapped up the session, Mr. Obama chided Republicans for advocating "baby steps" and rejected their call to start over, declaring Americans "don't want us to wait." He said that if he did not see any significant movement toward bipartisan cooperation, Democrats would push ahead on their own and leave it to voters to render their judgment.
"That's what elections are for," the president said.
The forum, at Blair House across the street from the White House, was in many respects an extraordinary sight — the president, with Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. at his side, engaging in a spirited and detailed policy debate with Republicans about one of the most compelling and ideologically polarizing issues facing the nation.Continue reading the main story
Mr. Obama's mastery of the intricacies of health policy was impressive even to some Republicans.
"It was sort of his classroom," Senator Lamar Alexander, the Tennessee Republican who delivered his party's opening statement, said in an interview. "I was glad we did it, because the president's megaphone is the biggest one and when he shares it with Republicans like he did, that gives us several hours to make our case, and I thought we made it well."
The session did produce hints of potential agreement on some issues, but in each case Democrats and Republicans differed over important details.
They agreed on the need for more regulation of insurers, for example, but clashed over the question of whether the federal government should replace states as the primary regulator. They agreed that the federal government should help individuals and small businesses pool their purchasing power to buy insurance, but disagreed over whether the government should specify minimum benefits, as Democrats proposed.
Beyond the question of government intervention in the private insurance market, their most profound disagreement was over expanding coverage to the uninsured. The Democrats want to cover more than 30 million people over 10 years; Republicans said the nation could not even afford the entitlement programs, like Medicare, that already exist, much less start new ones.
Amid the debate over insurance industry regulation, cost containment, medical malpractice lawsuits and other minutiae of health policy, there were also plenty of theatrics. At one point, Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Republican leader, chastised Mr. Obama for allowing Democrats to run on, saying Republicans had spoken for 24 minutes while Democrats had had 52. (Republicans kept track of the dialogue; at the end of the day, they said Mr. Obama had spoken for 119 minutes, Democrats 114 and Republicans 110.)
At another point, Mr. Obama looked wryly at Representative Eric Cantor of Virginia, the Republican whip, who addressed the president with a stack of papers in front of him. "Let me just guess," Mr. Obama said, barely containing his smirk, "that's the 2,400-page bill."
But the biggest clash of the day involved Mr. Obama's 2008 Republican rival, Senator John McCain of Arizona. Reminding Mr. Obama that both of them had run for office "promising change in Washington," Mr. McCain delivered a lengthy talk deriding the Democrats' bill as being produced "behind closed doors" and stuffed with "unsavory deal-making."
Mr. Obama finally tried to cut the senator off. "We're not campaigning anymore," the president said. "The election is over."
Mr. McCain laughed and shot back: "I'm reminded of that every day."
Later, though, Mr. Obama credited Mr. McCain with making a valid argument in a discussion over federal payments to private Medicare Advantage plans.
Mr. McCain criticized a provision of the Senate bill that would carve out special protections for people enrolled in the plans in Florida and a few other states, while people in his own state of Arizona would not benefit. The president called it a "legitimate point."
Throughout the day, Mr. Obama skirmished with Republicans over the effects of the Democrats' proposal on health insurance premiums. Republicans, citing a Congressional Budget Office analysis of the Senate bill, said the average premium for individual policies would be about 10 percent to 13 percent higher in 2016 than the average premium that year under current law.
Mr. Obama countered that under the Senate bill, the federal government would establish standards for "decent insurance," and that the better benefits might be more costly. And in any event, most people buying individual policies would qualify for federal subsidies, which would substantially lower what they pay.
One of the sharpest areas of philosophical disagreement between Mr. Obama and the Republicans emerged when Senator John Barrasso, the Wyoming Republican who is also an orthopedic surgeon, contended that Americans would make better, less costly health care choices if they had catastrophic insurance coverage that required them to pay for most services out of pocket.
Mr. Obama asked if he would prefer that members of Congress have only catastrophic coverage; the senator said he would. "That's right, because members of Congress make $176,000 a year," Mr. Obama replied, adding that he wondered whether Mr. Barrasso would feel the same way if he earned only $40,000.
For the president, Thursday's session was a kind of Hail Mary pass, a last-ditch effort to keep his top legislative priority from slipping out of his grasp.
He opened the session by calling on the two parties to search for common ground and implored them to "make sure that this discussion is actually a discussion and not just us trading talking points."
Mr. Obama said he found considerable overlap in the two parties' ideas, and Democrats like Senator Max Baucus of Montana, a chief author of the bill, spent much of their morning trying to back up that assertion.
Sounding optimistic, Mr. Baucus said, "We are on the verge and the cusp, with not too much effort, to try to bridge a lot of gaps here."Continue reading the main story

NSA, DHS Sued For Threatening People Who Created Parody Merchandise
from the parody-is-protected-free-speech dept
Either way, Dan McCall, who created the NSA T-shirt design which was taken down in August, using the motto "peeping while you're sleeping" has decided to sue for declaratory relief, represented by Paul Levy of Public Citizen (disclaimer: Paul has represented us in various matters over the years).
Defendants violated the First Amendment to the United States Constitution by threatening to enforce 50 U.S.C. § 3613 and 18 U.S.C. §§ 506, 701, and 1017 to forbid McCall from displaying his NSA Listens Parody, his NSA Spying Parody, and his DHS Stupidity Parody, from placing the Parodies on products to identify the targets of his criticism, or from selling mugs, T-shirts or other items bearing those designs to customers who want to display the items to express their own criticisms of NSA and DHS.In his blog post about the case, Levy also explains how Zazzle, though not a party in the suit, is really complicit in all of this, for using those single threatening cease-and-desist letters to take down future products and for not pushing back against such overly broad claims from the government. While he notes that when the government comes calling, lots of companies bend over to avoid any legal consequences, he still notes that this is the kind of situation where a competent lawyer at Zazzle should have pushed back on the government and pointed out that these letters were ridiculous (even more bizarre: Zazzle refused to share the letters with Levy, saying they would only read them aloud to him over the phone).
...it is inconceivable that the First Amendment might not protect these uses of the agencies' shields, and the NSA's trademark-like statute applies, by its terms, only when the challenged use "convey[s] the impression that such use is approved, endorsed, or authorized by the National Security Agency." Although the NSA's cease-and-desist letter specifically identified McCall's "Spying Since 1952" design as violating this statute, we should be able to expect a substantial commercial operation to push back against the implicit suggestion that somebody looking at that mug could have believed that NSA endorses it. Even though the cease-and-desist letter warned Zazzle against "any" future use of its name, initials or seal, it is even more farfetched to think that NSA would have endorsed a version of its seal that says, "Peeping While You're Sleeping." Consumers have a right to expect companies like Zazzle to have a thicker skin when faced with preposterous demands, and to wait for specific trademark challenges, rather than policing its service for other uses of the letters NSA, and proactively removing this sort of design in response to a cease-and-desist letter received two years before.Indeed. If you actually want a company that will stand up for your basic rights, it seems like Zazzle might not be the best option.
Happily, Zazzle faces commercial competition from others that do get tough on frivolous threats. After Zazzle removed McCall's designs in response to threats of litigation, McCall posted them to a virtual storefront at CafePress.com. We don't know whether CafePress has received similar threats from NSA or DHS, but based on previous experiences dealing with CafePress on trademark issues, I would expect CafePress to be more resistant to cease and desist letters.
For example, a few years ago, CafePress stood up to the Republican National Committee when it tried to prevent CafePress users from using the RNC's elephant logo in conjunction with materials opposing or endorsing various candidates or, indeed, praising or condemning the Republican party. And indeed, when the City of Memphis went after an anonymous blogger and sent a bogus takedown letter to Zazzle over the sale of parody Tshirts making fun of its police department, Zazzle's immediate response was to cave in while CafePress was willing to stand up to the pressure, although Zazzle did restore the images after I urged it to do so.
Still, until Zazzle shows itself to be more energetic in responding to threats against political humor, parodists speaking about controversial subjects should consider voting with their feet by using other vendors.

- The preview is not scaled
- No color dialogs
- The filterCase field is not set
The first issue is the most critical and also the hardest to fix as GIMP does not seem to allow a copy of the current layer to be scaled in memory without being added to the image.
Although the plugin could make it work after checking the host signature by treating it like Photoshop 2.5 and scaling the preview itself.
The second issue is relatively easy to fix, the most difficult part would be the color space conversion but that may not be very widely used.
The third issue is a few lines to fix.
I hope it helps.
