Press Releases
WuXi PharmaTech Announces Purchase of Ordinary Shares from General Atlantic
Feb 15, 2012
WuXi PharmaTech (NYSE: WX), a leading pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical-device research and development outsourcing company, with operations in China and the United States, announced that today it had in a negotiated transaction agreed to purchase from investment funds affiliated with global growth investor General Atlantic LLC ("General Atlantic") all of the WuXi ordinary shares General Atlantic received on February 12, 2012, following the conversion in full of the $35 million principal amount of convertible notes plus accrued interest of approximately $864,000 held by General Atlantic. The per-ADS equivalent purchase price of $13 was established based on a discount of slightly over 5% of the ADS closing price on February 13, 2012. The transaction was reviewed and approved by the disinterested members of the audit committee of WuXi's board of directors. WuXi expects the transaction to close on or about February 24, 2012. WuXi will use existing cash balances to pay for the transaction.
In February 2007, third-party investors, including General Atlantic, purchased $40 million principal amount of convertible notes from WuXi, with the notes maturing on February 9, 2012. In 2008, $5 million principal amount of notes were converted into ordinary shares. On February 7, 2012, General Atlantic elected to convert the remaining $35 million principal amount of notes plus accrued interest of approximately $864,000 into 22,771,000 ordinary shares at a conversion price of $1.575 per ordinary share, equivalent to 2,846,375 ADSs and a per-ADS conversion price of $12.60.
The potential impact of the conversion of the notes to ordinary shares has been reflected in the earnings per share calculations in WuXi's previous financial reporting, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. With WuXi's purchase of these shares today, they will be removed from shares outstanding for all future earnings per share calculations.

Most games based on a licensed property are terrible.
It's a sad truth of the gaming world, and many players have accepted this as a foregone conclusion. Licensed games are bad until proven good. Merely tolerable licensed games are the exception rather than the rule, and truly good ones are a rare find.
That in mind, this particular licensed game, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, is actually pretty great. -Josh Tolentino

Rated 5 out of 5 by JoelJ48 from Exceptional Quality My wife loved these chocolate morsels. These were her Valentine's Day gift. A big thumbs up!Date published: 2015-03-11Rated 5 out of 5 by Julie13 from Very nice. These are tiny, European style chocolates that pack a huge cocoa punch. I'm skeptical of high-end chocolate, I've rarely found it worth the price. these make the grade though. The flavor is intense and adult - meaning that these are less sugary and more chocolatey. They're a nice indulgence.Date published: 2014-02-07Rated 5 out of 5 by RCYT from Our new favorite chocolates Love it. Wish I can have my own box. Each individual has it own good flavor. Love the texture. I should have two boxes when it was on sale!Date published: 2012-12-05Rated 5 out of 5 by akaCAM from Beyond Understanding! These are like nothing I've ever experienced before. I can't believe how wonderful they are. I desperately want to have my spouse try one, they are so amazing; but I want just as desperately to keep them all to myself—and I share everything with the man! I'm literally afraid to pick up the box to offer him one, as I'm afraid I'll jerk the box back at the last second! How ridiculous is that? Don't answer that, I already know the answer. Sheesh, be prepared for a real struggle if you buy these for someone other than yourself!Date published: 2012-08-21Rated 5 out of 5 by akaCAM from Bewitched! No words could possibly describe these chocolates and do them justice. If I thought it was possible I'd think they were bewitched! After eating one you will think all other chocolates have a waxy aspect you just never noticed before. These, although firm, have a creaminess that defies logic. The other oddity is the feeling of satisfaction you feel when eating even one. You can eat a dozen ordinary chocolates, heck you could eat all the chocolates on Earth, and not gain the same level of full-body enjoyment. On the negative side they need a better packing and shipping process. I live in South Carolina, and August is our hottest month. All the chocolates shifted, and since they are not individually wrapped, they softened enough to bond with their neighbor. I had to refrigerate them, so I could touch them without them immediately liquifying. A bit of advice, don't buy these if you can't handle having them on your mind all the time until you finish the box! They are that good.Date published: 2012-08-09Rated 5 out of 5 by Geaux from The BEST chocolate ever! Everyone thinks that Godiva chocolate is the best and they are sadly mistaken. If they try this chocolate they will never buy Godiva again. This is so silky and complex...I don't have words. I hate the price but love the chocolate so I buy it.Date published: 2012-02-21Rated 5 out of 5 by bbelle from The only chocolate for me Exceptional chocolate! I have enjoyed maison du chocolate several times before from the boutique stores in Paris and NYC but never have I been able to purchase online and have them shipped to my home. Very convenient and very fresh. I enjoyed these with my entire family over the holiday season. The assortment was varied, with a little something for everyone. (dark and milk chocolate, fruit infusion or pure ganache...etc) In my opinion this is the only chocolate you ever need.Date published: 2012-01-07

New to the forum and need some help.
My now 18 year old son wants to travel to the U.S., and needs to purchase insurance to cover medical emergencies while he's away for two weeks.
When he was 13 months old, an MRI (for an unrelated issue) determined that he had a Chiari Type 1, but he has never experienced any symptoms, and the neurosurgeon said that he probably never will. He has occasional headaches (minor), and dizzyness (which his GP attributes to his low blood pressure, which in turn is explained by his high participation in sports), but none of the other possible sypmtoms at this point (I know that symptoms may materialize in the late teens/early 20's, so that we're not out of the woods yet).
My question though, is whether or not a person with a Chiari will be eligible for insurance at all. WIll this pre-existing condition exclude him from coverage? We're in Canada, and I'm not sure that things are the same in the UK, but here, if you ever apply for insurance of any kind, one of the questions is, "Have you ever been denied insurance", so I don't want to try to apply for coverage and then be denied. I was hoping that the experiences of people on this forum could provide an answer instead.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Optimized SAP Performance
Maximized SAP Availability
Improved Visibility and Control
Unmatched Agility
Solution Description
Whether you're a large or a small-to-midsize enterprise, the smooth functioning of your SAP environment is critical to your daily business and long-term competitiveness. Application performance, availability, and agility have never been more important, nor has SAP protection. In fact, as SAP landscapes become more complex, how you protect SAP becomes increasingly important. Done right, it will keep your SAP environment humming and business moving forward. Done wrong, it will slow you down and limit business growth.
Gone are the days when backing up to tape or disk through the backup server is enough to satisfy existing SLAs, let alone meet new SAP demands created by cloud or Big Data projects.
Today, SAP protection is all about:
- Continually maximizing SAP performance and availability
- Improving visibility and control of SAP data protection
- Swiftly and adeptly responding to changing business SLAs
This requires a new way of thinking and providing SAP protection—one that takes a consolidated approach to data protection, leveraging a protection storage architecture.
Redefine SAP backup, archive, and availability with deduplication and consolidated data protection using EMC Data Domain Systems, Data Protection Suite, RecoverPoint, and VPLEX.
EMC solutions support SAP environments with Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, or IBM DB2 databases and provide protection for SAP HANA environments.
- Consolidate backup and archive workloads; eliminate "one-off" protection architectures
- Improve visibility and control of data protection; enable application owners and DBAs to back up and restore SAP environments
- Speed and simplify protection; shrink backup windows and improve RTOs and RPOs
- Reduce protection footprint by consolidating workloads and leveraging deduplication
- Simplify management
- Protect multiple database copies efficiently and reliably
- Provide network-efficient replication and reliable recovery
- Lower TCO
- Eliminate tape

In 1981, Johnny Johnson marched into the storefront headquarters of the tiny Sativa-Los Angeles County Water District in Willowbrook to complain about his water being shut off. He ended up deciding to run for a seat on the water board.
Johnson has been a leader of the district ever since. Now 68, he oversees a staff of six full-time employees, including his wife and stepdaughter.
For years, the district has operated without a budget, an auditor or a general manager. It can't afford to install water meters at the 1,500 homes it serves just north of Compton.
And Johnson runs it like a one-man show: He oversees maintenance on wells, recently redesigned the district's logo and has commissioned a series of murals around the neighborhood — including one that depicts him and three other Sativa board members.

Jets sign 9-time Pro Bowl safety Ed Reed — FOX Carolina 21
Jets sign 9-time Pro Bowl safety Ed Reed — FOX Carolina 21
Jets sign 9-time Pro Bowl safety Ed Reed
Posted: Thursday, November 14, 2013 12:15 PM EST Updated: Thursday, November 14, 2013 7:46 PM EST
By DENNIS WASZAK Jr.
AP Sports Writer
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Rex Ryan bolted out of his office the moment he heard Ed Reed was cut.
He wanted to make sure general manager John Idzik knew one of his favorite players was available for the New York Jets to pursue.
It s only a rumor that I pulled a hamstring, Ryan said, grinning. That s not true.
The Jets signed the nine-time Pro Bowl safety Thursday, bringing one of the NFL s greatest playmaking defensive players to a secondary on a defense that ranks 24th against the pass. The 35-year-old Reed was released Tuesday by Houston, cleared waivers Wednesday and joined less than 24 hours later.
John had a big smile on his face, Ryan said about the Jets GM. I think he anticipated it, but he had already beaten me to the punch. He had already set it in motion with our scouts.
Reed joined his new Jets teammates on the practice field wearing a green No. 22 jersey; his familiar No. 20 is currently worn by cornerback Kyle Wilson. Reed laughed when he was asked if he thinks he s got anything left.
I don t think I d be here if they didn t think that, he said after his first practice with the Jets. I know what I know. I know how I feel and I know what I ve put in my offseason workouts. I m ready to go. You ll see.
You guys can be the judge of it.
The Jets released outside linebacker Ricky Sapp to make room on the roster for Reed.
Ryan and defensive coordinator Dennis Thurman coached Reed for eight years in Baltimore. Reed has always been a favorite of Ryan, who once labeled him the greatest safety to play the game. While his physical skills no longer make him one of the game s elite players, Reed will be able to serve as a leader in the secondary and help bring along young safeties Antonio Allen, Jaiquawn Jarrett and Josh Bush.
This had nothing to do with sentiment, Ryan said. We believe that Ed will be a great signing for us and he s going to help this football team, without question.
Reed said New England also showed interest, as well as one other team, but everything seemed right about coming to the Jets.
It just fits, he said. I know the system. Rex was like, Go ahead and let s see what you ve got.
The fact that the Jets (5-4) are in the playoff hunt was also a plus.
That s a huge factor, Reed said. It was a huge factor in playing this year, in general, being with a team that was going to contend and be in the playoffs.
There s a good chance Reed will be ready to play Sunday at Buffalo, at least in certain situations, and it is a low-risk, high-reward situation for the Jets.
We ve had some issues with the deep ball, Ryan said. Let them throw it there now.
Reed would like to start, of course, but added that he s fine with whatever the coaches want him to do, including playing in dime packages or special teams.
They had a good thing going before I came, Reed said. I don t plan on rocking the boat.
That was a bit of an issue in Houston, as Reed missed the Texans first two games after offseason hip surgery and was relegated to a backup role, making just 16 tackles with no interceptions.
He was unhappy about not starting after signing a three-year, $15 million deal in the offseason following 11 years in Baltimore. Reed also criticized the team for being outplayed and outcoached after the Texans seventh straight loss last Sunday.
To put it simple for you, Reed said, it wasn t a good fit.
Texans defensive coordinator Wade Phillips said Thursday that Reed s criticism was not why he was released, but rather because the team s younger players were performing well and Reed wasn t getting a lot of playing time.
Phillips laughed when he was asked if the Texans thought they were going to get more out of Reed when they signed him.
Yeah, I think that s probably an understatement, Phillips said. We all thought he was going to be J.J. Watt in the secondary. And things didn t work out that way.
Reed, who won a Super Bowl last season with the Ravens, was the NFL s top defensive player in 2004. In 11-plus seasons, the ball-hawking Reed has 61 interceptions, including seven returned for touchdowns. He s a five-time first-team All-Pro who also holds the NFL record with 1,541 yards on interception returns. His nine career postseason interceptions, including one in the Ravens Super Bowl win, tie him for the league mark.
Reed said recent criticism of him has come as a result of being held to higher standards than most safeties.
I created that monster, and I ve been blessed to create that monster, he said. I love it.
Reed had a whirlwind 24 hours, which began with him working out in Georgia when he cleared waivers around 4 p.m. Wednesday. Less than six hours later, he was on a plane to New Jersey.
We had him at hello, Thurman said.
Reed met with Idzik before going to bed around 2:30 a.m. and then heading back to the facility after a few hours of sleep.
We put him in some defenses just to see what he could remember with his partner (Dawan) Landry out there, Ryan said. It was like, Whoa, here we go.
It was like he hadn t missed a beat.

'Eight bipartisan members of both chambers who oppose the House's Innovation Act held a press conference Tuesday, arguing that not all of the 325 members who helped approve a similar bill last Congress are on board this time around'
With good reason.
Just because they call it "reform" doesn't mean it is.
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/mar/1/dana-rohrabacher-patent-reform-is-killing-the-righ/ http://www.npr.org/2013/11/06/243022966/secret-persuasion-how-big-campaign-donors-stay-anonymous
"patent reform"…America Invents Act, vers 1.0, 2.0, 3.0…
"This is not a patent reform bill" Senator Maria Cantwell (D-WA) complained,
despite other democrats praising the overhaul. "This is a big
corporation patent giveaway that tramples on the right of small
Senator Cantwell is right. All these bills do is legalize theft. Just because they call it "reform" doesn't mean it is. The paid puppets of banks, huge multinationals and China continue to brain wash and bankrupt America. If you tell a lie often enough and can dupe others to repeat that lie, eventually it is accepted as fact. As Mark Twain said, 'truth is not hard to kill, and (that) a lie well told is immortal'. Those who use the amorphous phrase 'patent troll' expose themselves as thieves, duped, or doped and perpetuate the lie.
They should have called these bills the America STOPS Inventing Act or ASIA, because that's where they're sending all our jobs. These changes are killing our small and startup firms and the jobs they would have created. The present bill (vers 1, 2, 3, etc) is nothing less than another giveaway for huge multinationals and China and an off shoring job killing nightmare for America. Even the leading patent expert in China has stated these bills will help them steal our inventions.
Patent reform is a fraud on America. These bills will not do what they claim they will. What they will do is help large multinational corporations maintain their monopolies by robbing and destroying their small entity and startup competitors (so it will do exactly what they paid for) and with them the jobs they would have created. For the last several years now they have been ransacking and looting small entities taking everything they can carry. They have already damaged the US patent system so that property rights are teetering on lawlessness. These bills will only make it harder and more expensive for small firms to get and enforce their patents. Without patents we cant get funded. In this way large firms are able to play king of the hill and keep their small competitors from reaching the top as they have. Yet small entities create the lion's share of new jobs. According to recent studies by the Kauffman Foundation and economists at the U.S. Census Bureau, "startups aren't everything when it comes to job growth. They're the only thing." Meanwhile, the large multinationals ship more and more American's jobs overseas. These bills are a wholesale destroyer of American jobs.
It's about property rights and jobs. When government fails to uniformly and justly enforce property rights they contribute to the wealth and power of the well placed few, suppress the ability and rights of the rest to make better lives for themselves and their families, support giant monopolies that enslave and impoverish the public, and commandeer the government.
Those wishing to help fight big business giveaways and set America on a course for sustainable prosperity, not large corporation lobbied poverty, should contact us as below and join the fight as we are building a network of inventors and other stakeholders to lobby Congress to restore property rights for all patent owners -large and small, and the jobs they bring.

6 firm, white fish fillets
3 tablespoons tequila
juice of 1/2 lime
1/2 teaspoon cumin
2 small hot chiles, seeded and minced
1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1 green onion, chopped
to serve:
corn tortillas (small size)
sour cream
additional lime juice
hot sauce (I used Tabasco brand chipotle pepper sauce)
Whisk together the tequila, lime juice, chiles, cumin and salt/pepper to taste. Pour into a resealable bag and add the fish. Marinate about 10-20 minutes or until you get bored and hungry and want to eat. Spray a nonstick pan with cooking oil or heat up 1 tablespoon olive oil. Cook the fish until cooked through, about 5 minutes, flipping once. Meanwhile, mix the green onion and the tomato together. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and a tiny bit of lime juice. Set aside. When the fish is cooked through, remove it to a plate and cut into slices. Microwave the corn tortillas between damp paper towels for a few seconds or until they are slightly warm and soft. Place the fish in the middle of the tortilla. Sprinkle with additional lime juice if desired. Top with tomato/green onion mixture, avocado*, shredded red cabbage, hot sauce and sour cream. Serve.
Yield: about 6-8 tacos.
*which I didn't do, as avocados were $2 each at the store today, but that I think would taste really good.

Kleemann and Xtra-Power join forces to distribute M156 C63/SLS AMG supercharger systems in USThis is some very interesting news. Kleemann will be distributing and installing Xtra-Power systems from their Colorado Springs, Colorado facility. Dyno numbers are 610 wheel horsepower which is definitely some good power but the pricetag for the SLS supercharger setup is $32k installed. SLS tax? Yes, considering the C63 systems are much cheaper. We also wonder, what happened to Kleemann and their own supercharger setup? Check out the videos below.
This article was originally published in forum thread: KLEEMANN USA and Xtra Power Join To Create The First Supercharged SLS started by Exeenom View original post9 Comments
Going to be interesting to follow this along. Torque should be awesome from right off the line. Do we know how much boost it produces? Say 5-6 lbs? I am sure I already read it but have forgotten. Definitely has a bad boy - ghetto sort of feel to it. This unit is also probably a little small to build on being 2.3L I think but likely better for the street.
To get the best out of FI I think the 6.2L engines will need to lower the compression ratio a little. Superchargers will also benefit from custom cams, larger intakes, larger Throttle Bodies, head flow improvements and exhaust mods but not until the engine is worked up a bit to take it. Now that is a bottomless pit....
Seems to be a good start. I still don't feel like I need any more but that is always subject to change.

Behold! The PAudiotron! Yes, emerging from the multi-burn addled brain of Sound Man a Burning Man 2013 art project has congealed, passed its viability testing hurdles, and coming to the playa this year. Yes, folks, the last place on the playa that you could retreat to in order to have a few moments of peace, the port-a-potty, has just lost its sacred sanctuary status. Burning Man 2013 brings the introduction of the PAudiotron into many of these most solitary spaces. You may rightly ask:
- What is the PAudiotron experience? Motion activated sound in the port-a-potties.
What kind of audio experiences are we talking about? Extremely varied. Here is a sample. Here is another sample.
How many potties are blessed by the miracle of the PAudiotron? 100.
How can I experience PAudiotron? Look for the label on selected port-a-potties.
How can I help bring the PAudiotron experience to thousands of burners? Volunteer!

What is 3D Scan Left Hip Joint?
Computed tomography (CT) or Computerized axial tomography (CAT scan) is a diagnostic imaging test used to create detailed images of internal organs, bones, soft tissue and blood vessels. The cross-sectional images generated during a CT scan can be reformatted in multiple planes, and can even generate three-dimensional images which can be viewed on a computer monitor, printed on film or transferred to electronic media. CT scanning is often the best method for detecting many different cancers since the images allow your doctor to confirm the presence of a tumor and determine its size and location. It is a fast, painless, noninvasive and highly accurate test. Preparation Tell your doctor if there is a possibility that you are pregnant. Some allergic reaction to contrast medium can happen, like nausea, vomiting, irritation but that is treatable immediately. Avoid metal zips, studs, etc. A mild sedative may be required for those who may be particularly tense or anxious or even claustrophobic in the scanner room alone.

Last Monday about this time, we were checking updates on the National Hurricane Center website as the winds continued to pick up. The latest predictions showed Hurricane Sandy going directly over us.
We'd been out on Saturday to purchase some last minute non-perishable foods like granola bars and crackers in case the power went out as it often does in these large storms. The atmosphere was festive at the grocery store in the early morning, but as the day wore on, shoppers reported bare shelves—no bottled water to be found.
On Sunday the ward requested that we check in with our home and visiting teaching families to make sure they were ready for the storm, and then afterwards to see if anyone needed help.
The school district cancelled school for Monday, so the children were home for the first day of what turned into an unexpected week-long vacation. We coped with the stress by cooking and baking homemade chicken noodle soup, wheat bread, pumpkin pies, and chocolate chip cookies.
By Monday evening the storm sounded like a train passing. Our home is surrounded by about twenty large oak trees, so we were concerned about how they would do. The power was flickering and dimming and finally it went off altogether about 10:00 p.m. It came back on at 3:30 in the morning, and we were very happy about that since many people in this area had their power off for days, and some people still are without power.
On Monday night a ward member noted on Facebook that a tree had blown over on their car, so on Tuesday my husband and older boys helped the scout troop clean that up, and since we had power and a dry basement and an intact roof we were able to help with various community needs. Some people had power and generators, so they loaned the generators to people without power. The school district cancelled school each day since schools were without power and many roads were impassable in the district.
Much of the damage is cleaned up in the immediate area—we spent all day Saturday cleaning up our yard—but it's still shocking to drive around the area and see the immense fallen trees, power line damage, and debris lining the streets.
Our trip to church yesterday was rather complicated due to road closures and downed power lines. The county where the church is located—a half-hour drive from our house—was much harder hit than our county. And there was one topic of conversation at church: the storm.
Most of us in this immediate area are doing fine, but it's gotten quite cold and many people in coastal New Jersey and New York were much harder hit. The Church and many other organizations are organizing relief efforts: helping with clean-up, helping at shelters, and so forth, and our local congregations are participating now that the members mostly have things cleaned up and are recovering from the extended power outages.

Kaohsiung or Kao-hsiung both: gou´shyo͞ong´ [key], city (1995 pop. 1,426,035), S Taiwan. It is the second largest city of Taiwan and its leading port. Its designation as an export processing zone in the late 1970s has stimulated foreign investment. The leading industries produce petroleum products, steel, cement, aluminum, wood and paper products, fertilizers, metals, and machinery; shipbuilding is also carried on. Kaohsiung is connected by high-speed rail to Taipei. The city grew up from a small fishing village and was developed as a manufacturing center and port by the Japanese, who occupied Taiwan in 1895. Nearby is an important naval base.

By Ben Hayward | Spanish Football Writer
It was a brutal blow. Malaga's Champions League bow brought wonderful wins over AC Milan, Anderlecht and Zenit in the first round; three victories and three draws which saw the the Costa del Sol club top Group C and advance unbeaten to the excitement and enthrallment of the knockout stages. But then came the bad news - a Uefa ban for financial irregularities meant they would be unable to return to European football in 2013-14.
The Andalusian club have announced they will fight the ruling of European football's governing body and are currently preparing paperwork which they will hand over to TAS (Sport's Arbitration Tribunal) in the hope they will prove their innocence.
But they could also face the threat of a second campaign being added to the sentence at any time over the following four years if outstanding debts are not paid off by the end of March. Despite the punishment, the club's CEO, Vicente Casado, believes the decision will be reversed. "We are disappointed by a decision that I consider to be unjust and which I feel to be mistaken. But worried, no, because we are calm and confident about our compliance," he explained last month.
Behind the scenes, however, there is genuine concern as many senior club officials have been left in the dark by the tumultuous tenure of Qatari sheik Abdullah bin Nasser Al Thani. He arrived amid bold claims of taking on Barcelona and Real Madrid, recruited coach Manuel Pellegrini and a number of exciting talents, including Santi Cazorla, Jeremy Toulalan and Isco, but left the club in limbo over the summer as debts piled up and key players were sold to balance the books.
Through it all, Pellegrini somehow steered the ship through stormy waters, both in La Liga and in the Champions League. The Chilean has rebuilt his reputation following a troublesome term at Madrid in 2009-10 and Isco has stepped up to fill Cazorla's sizeable shoes since the former Villarreal man moved to Arsenal in the summer. Now, however, Malaga risk losing them both.
Isco signed a new contract at the end of January and is happy at his hometown club. "It's all happened pretty fast but I'm still the young lad I have always been," he told Uefa in an interview published on Monday. At just 20 years of age, the attacking midfielder is enjoying his football in the town where he grew up, but if Malaga fail to overturn their European ban, the club will be forced to cash in on their star player, whose release clause of €35 million remains comparatively low considering his talent and his age. Isco already has plenty of admirers.Pellegrini is another man in demand. The Chilean is highly rated throughout Spain and has also attracted interest from the Premier League, most recently Chelsea. Without European football, the sporting project at Malaga is unlikely to provide sufficient motivation, especially as the club would be forced to sell off their stars to stay afloat.
And the owners may not even be around to clear up the mess, either. Self-sufficiency is the current plan, with costs cut to balance the books and pay off debts in order to keep in line with Uefa's Financial Fair Play regulations. Malaga will now look to stay on top of their payments and hope the recent sale of Nacho Monreal to Arsenal will be the last significant departure from a first-team squad still making waves at home and in Europe.
The panorama is quite different now, though, from the optimism and expectation of 2010. As they prepare to face Porto in the last 16 of the Champions League and lie fourth in La Liga, Malaga have come a long, long way since their takeover. But lose their appeal against the European ban and the dream of conquering the continent will be over before it has barely begun.

Sir Paul plays gig at highest venue
Having spent more than half-a-century performing to audiences around the globe, there were few stones left for Sir Paul McCartney to overturn.
But it was at an elevation of 2,800 metres above sea level (9,180ft) that the ve teran pop star ended his Ecuadorian absence.
Sir Paul played his first ever concert in the South American country last night at the Estadio De Liga in Quito. In doing so, the gig became the highest he had ever performed.
To mark his visit as a national event, local authorities teamed up with the Ecuadorian Beatles fan club to greet Sir Paul by creating a giant logo for his latest album on the Pichincha Mountain, an Ecuadorian landmark. The logo could be seen across the entire city.
Sir Paul performed for almost three hours and also gave a special rendition of All You Need Is Love on the piano.
The former Beatles star is currently on the South American leg of his Out There tour. Later this week he will perform in Costa Rica for the first time.

Editor�s note: This is the sixth in a series of articles examining historic courthouses in area counties and the efforts being made to preserve them for future generations.
Plans to renovate the Historic Montgomery County Courthouse � the one built between 1868 and 1872 � seemed to be derailed in early 2011 when the county board balked at advertising for bids on a then-estimated $1.3 million project.
But the board relented, and later that year work began on renovating the second and third floors.
The work was funded by royalties from the sale of coal from the Deer Run Mine east of Hillsboro.
West Virginia-based Cline Resources and Development bought the coal rights to about 120,000 acres from the county in 2004, bringing $7.2 million to the county. Montgomery County also gets a 2 percent royalty on the coal sold from the mine, which opened in 2009 and shipped its first coal in October 2011.
�Cline Coal paid us nicely for the coal rights,� said Ron Deabenderfer, a member of the county board�s buildings and grounds committee. �It amounts so far to about $250,000 a month. We�re one of the few counties that have a surplus.�
Deabenderfer said some of the money has been put into a �rainy day fund� and to pay for other projects, including the courthouse renovation.
�We renovated the second and third floors and put in a new elevator,� he said. �We have something now that should serve the county well for a number of years.�
A complete redo of the county board room was removed from the original project in favor of some painting, making the price tag at completion around $960,000, county coordinator Christine Daniels said.
Montgomery County built a courthouse annex in 1993 that houses courtrooms and court-related offices, including those of the state�s attorney, circuit clerk, public defender, judges and the probation department, Daniels said.
The renovation of the historic courthouse consisted of extensive work on the second floor, she said. Several emergency exits were added on the third floor, which was repainted. Ceilings also were replastered. The work was completed in May 2012.
The supervisor of assessments� office moved from the third floor to the second, which also is home to the county board office and board room. On the third floor is the solid-waste inspector�s office and the county�s geographic information systems office, which had been in space rented from the Montgomery County Farm Bureau nearby.
Deabenderfer said the courthouse still needs tuck-pointing on the outside.
�But that�s the only thing I know of, and we�re trying to make plans and provisions for that,� he said.
Montgomery County�s first courthouse was a log structure erected in 1823, but the building and the lot it sat on were sold when a new courthouse was built between 1833 and 1835 as the centerpiece of the Hillsboro public square. It was extensively remodeled in 1852.
As the county�s population grew, the courthouse was deemed too small and work was started on the existing courthouse that still retains some of the walls and materials from the 1833 building.
The remodeled building, designed by architect G. P. Randall in the Second Empire style, features a square tower enclosing a staircase at the southwest corner and a tower with a mansard roof at the southeast corner.
The project, funded by the sale of swamplands, started in 1868 and was completed in 1872.
What had been the county jail on the third floor and sheriff�s living quarters on the second floor were remodeled for offices and jury rooms in 1909 when a new jail was built.
An addition was built onto the northwest corner in 1912.
A cupola once sat atop the southwest tower of the courthouse, but it deteriorated to the point in had to be removed in 1952.
The red brick courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
The courthouse gained notoriety in 1996 when a federal court ordered the removal of a 10-foot neon �The World Needs God� sign that had hung above a courthouse door since 1936, when a temperance advocate convinced the county board to put it there.
The American Civil Liberties Union had sued to have the sign removed from the building, arguing it violated the U.S. Constitution�s separation of church and state.
The sign now adorns a nearby church.

Crew team names its new racing shell in honor of President Lawrence
The Brandeis Crew Team was joined by a special guest at their early morning practice on the banks of the Charles River this weekend, as President Fred Lawrence came out to christen a new boat, named "President Lawrence."
"When we name boats, we generally try and have some meaning behind the name," said Coach Dave Deluliis. "We most recently named a boat after the first crew coach at Brandeis. The boat before that we named the "First Class" in honor of the first crew of 1986. All of the students just had a good feeling about the president and have been impressed by his accessibility and the attention he pays to the students."
President Lawrence said, "I was incredibly touched by the team's decision."

I came across your article on the Civil War and thought you might be interested in a novel on the Civil War that I just published.
Hiram's Honor: Reliving
Private Terman's Civil War, ISBN 978-0615-27812-4.
Hiram's Honor can be examined at http://www.amazon.com/Hirams-Honor-Reliving-Private-Termans/dp/0615278124/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1239221935&sr=8-1
Second Bull Run, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Richmond (Belle Island), Savannah and Andersonville are prominently featured in the book which is printed and distributed by Ingram Book Company. For more, step into the Civil War at http://hiramshonor.blogspot.com or see book trailer at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OU_iMU9cpM..
Professional reviews of the book can be seen at http://www.cincinnaticwrt.org/data/articles/Terman_Review_Hirams%20Honor.pdf and http://www.civilwarnews.com/reviews/2010br/january/hiram_terman_b011004.html.
The unique thing about this book is that I assume the identity of my ancestor in all of his battles and prison misery. It was quite a challenge to match every detail that actually happened (dairies, letters, first-hand accounts) with a first person dramatized and riveting story of how I would have reacted in his situation. Best wishes in your work.
In this unique, historically-accurate novel based on the first-person experiences of his ancestor in the Civil War, Dr. Max Terman takes us back in time to Second Bull Run, Gettysburg, Belle Island prison, and Andersonville. You'll walk with Private Hiram Terman, a sensitive yet dutiful soldier, his two friends--the secular, cunning yet emotional Seth and the religious, unswerving Isaiah as they experience marches, camp-life, battles, capture, and prison camps. Also encountered are struggling generals, desperate civilians, ruthless fellow prisoners, and enemy soldiers, some mean and heartless, others kindly. Based on actual eyewitness accounts and real events, this is a story you'll never forget, a fitting tribute to the upcoming 150 year anniversary of the American Civil War.

The next time someone yawps at you about the extraordinary accomplishments of the Bush regime, you might want to drop this little tidbit on them (h/t):
Former Congresswoman and prosecutor Liz Holtzman makes a good point:
The criminal justice system identified and convicted some of those involved in the 1993 World Trade Center attacks. By contrast, not one person has been prosecuted for the 9/11 attacks, although seven and a half years have gone by. Even Khalid Sheik Mohammed, one of the masterminds of 9/11, is unlikely ever to be convicted in US courts because he was repeatedly subjected to torture. Significantly, the cruel and torturous methods used on detainees never yielded enough information to capture Osama Bin Laden or his chief deputy. So much for the claims of torture's efficacy.
So what the fuck have we done for the last nearly 8 years? Oh. That's right. Invaded the wrong fucking country so that a bunch of pathetic losers could play out their War President fantasies.
Anyone who still thinks the Bush regime was good for this country after clicking these three links is so terminally stupid that further conversation is useless.

While everybody should take satisfaction in how the game has flourished, it has not been without its challenges. Even greater ones exist in the years ahead.
Over the last 12 months there has been regular engagement and communication between the IRFU and all the stakeholders including clubs, schools, Ten Year Ticket Holders, Supporters and the wider sporting audience.
This took the form of various surveys, such as Vision 2020, focus groups and various research projects and consultations.
While we have undertaken strategic planning processes in the past, on this occasion we are striving to create a longer term vision which is inclusive and create a bright, sustainable future for Irish Rugby.
This section of the website contains details of the ongoing review process including the results of the Club Engagement programme, the previous Strategic Plan and the dates for further consultation.
The below document provides some background information for delegates attending the IRFU Briefing and Action Workshops being held across the provinces during September 2012 as part of the strategic planning process for Irish Rugby.

When will Latos take a break, and for how long?
To recap: Padres GM Jed Hoyer is on record saying the team wants to cap Latos' innings pitched at 150 for 2010.
Interestingly, there is precedent for giving a young pitcher a break in the middle of the season. Detroit promoted 20 year old phenom Rick Porcello to the majors last year. They had the same concerns the Padres currently do about overworking this prized prospect too early in his career, so they did two things. One, they limited his pitch count to less than 100 (which they stuck to until his 24th start on 28 August), and two, in an attempt to limit his innings they shut him down following his 5 July start for 15 days. Because this break coincided with the All-Star break, Porcello ended up only missing one start.
Porcello's numbers pre and post break are interesting:
He was basically the same pitcher in both halves, although his ERA, BABIP allowed, and OPS went down after the rest period. What I want you to notice, however, is he threw the same amount of innings in each half - which total to 170.2. Now that includes the one-game playoff against Minnesota he started last 6 Oct; but even if we subtract that start out he still threw 165 innings in 2009.
Did it help Porcello in 2010? The jury is still out, but early returns say no. Through 19 June, Porcello had a 4-7 record, a WHIP of 1.692, and an ERA+ of 71 (worse than Dontrelle Willis, which is saying something). As a result, Detroit sent him down to Toledo on 20 June. It's unclear if his struggles are due to his 2009 workload or part of the natural regression once hitters have time to review tape and learn tendencies.
Back to Latos. After last night's sublime performance (7 more shutout innings, running his scoreless inning streak to 15, AND his first career HR) Latos has thrown 106.2 total innings during the regular season. That leaves him 43 innings to pitch in 2010. Since May 1, he's worked into the sixth inning in every start but one (4 June at Philly) - 11 out of 12 starts. Assuming he will work 6 innings in all of his starts, he has 7 starts left this season.
The Padres will roll through the rotation 15 more times in 2010, meaning they are squarely staring at shelving their best pitcher for almost 2 months in the heat of a pennant drive.
It's pretty obvious Tim Stauffer would be the replacement for Latos in the rotation once San Diego decides to sit Latos. Stauffer has pitched well this season and just lost out on the #5 starter job out of spring training, but he has not pitched in the majors since May 9th, and he's only made 1 start this season (he's made 31 other starts over the course of his 5-year career). Choosing Tim Stauffer over Mat Latos to start games in late July and all of August is not ideal for a team in the thick of the pennant hunt.
Although every pitcher is different, the fact Rick Porcello took about 3 weeks off and came back the same pitcher is encouraging - it's a data point that Latos could take some time off and continue to dominate when he returns. Missing 8 starts is a lot more than missing 2 or 3, however.
I don't have an answer here, I just point this out. The easiest course of action is to let Latos continue taking the ball every 5th day. The Padres, with Latos' long-term health firmly in the forefront of their thinking, are looking for the right decision.
I'll close by saying this: it's not every day a team finds itself with a chance to qualify for the post-season and possibly make a deep run. The 2010 San Diego Padres, amazingly enough, have a chance to do so. Isn't that the point of playing this game?

Larry in Ocean Beach said:ReplyDelete
There's been one little change - Bud recently mentioned limiting Latos to 150-180 innings! That's the first time I've heard that second number. Latos would have to miss only a few starts, and/or limit innings per start to avoid a long shutdown.
Great comment. I had not heard that upper limit discussed before either.ReplyDelete
It could mean any number of things. One might be the Padres have looked closely at Rick Porcello's 2009 statistics and plan to mimic it to some degree. Or, they still plan a long break for Latos but are willing to pitch him deep into the post-season. Or some other plan we haven't dreamed of yet.
I'm glad, however, that Latos has more than 43 innings left on this season. He's the Ace right now, and the team needs him.

Apple, Pear, and Quince Galette
The aromatic quince has a fleeting season, just a few months in the early fall. This Apple, Pear & Quince Galette combines the perfumed fruit with apples and pears into a rustic, free form tart.
Reprinted with permission from Farmers' Market Desserts by Jennie Schacht. Copyright © 2011. Published by Chronicle Books. Available wherever books are sold. All rights reserved.
- Yield:8
- Active time: 30 minutes
- Total time:2 hours 20 minutes
- Crust
- 1 1/3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cold, cut into 8 pieces
- 2 ounces cream cheese, cold
- About 1 1/2 tablespoons ice water
- Filling
- 1 large tart apple, peeled and cored
- 1 large pear, peeled and cored
- 1 large or 2 small quinces, peeled and cored
- 2 tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon unbleached all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cut into small pieces
- Finishes
- About 1 tablespoon half-and-half
- 2 tablespoons turbinado, Demerara, or other coarse sugar
- 1/3 cup apricot preserves
- 1 tablespoon Calvados, pear brandy, or brandy (optional)
To make the crust, put the flour and salt in a food processor and pulse a few times to mix. Scatter the butter over the top and pulse until the butter is in pea-size pieces. Break the cream cheese into 3 or 4 pieces and add to the food processor. Pulse until the butter and cream cheese are in pieces that vary in size from oat flakes to peas. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the ice water, a little at a time, adding just enough for the dough to hold together when you pinch a clump between your fingers. Listen for the sound of the motor to deepen, a clue the dough is ready.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead briefly just to bring it together into a ball. Flatten it into a disk, wrap in plastic film, and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes or up to 1 day.
Cut the apple and pear into roughly 1/2-inch cubes. Coarsely grate the quince on the large holes of a box grater. Put all the fruits into a bowl, sprinkle with the brown sugar, flour, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt, and toss to coat evenly. Mix the butter evenly into the fruit.
Preheat the oven to 375°F, with a rack in the lower third. Turn a 17-by-12-inch rimmed baking sheet upside down, and cover the bottom with a sheet of parchment paper.
Place the dough disk between 2 sheets of lightly floured plastic film and roll out into a 14-inch circle. Peel off the top sheet of plastic film. If the circle is uneven, trim the edge of the dough with a pizza wheel or kitchen shears. Then, using the bottom sheet, flip the dough circle onto the parchment. (It will drape over the edges of the pan.) Carefully peel off the second sheet of plastic film.
Arrange the filling evenly over the dough, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges. Using the parchment as an aid, fold the border up and over the fruit, tucking and pleating the pastry to snugly fit over the fruit as you go.
To finish, brush the pastry rim with half-and-half and sprinkle the turbinado sugar evenly over the pastry and the filling.
Bake until the fruit is tender when pierced with a knife and the dough is golden, about 50 minutes. Let the galette cool on the pan for 15 minutes, then slide the parchment with the galette onto a wire rack to finish cooling.
Melt the apricot preserves in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in the liquor, then pass through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl. Brush the glaze over the warm fruit.
Serve the galette warm or at room temperature, cut into wedges.
Refrigerate leftover galette, tightly covered, for up to 3 days. Heat on a baking sheet in a preheated 375°F oven for about 10 minutes to crisp the crust before serving.

Extreme Halloween Decorating
As we do every year, we recently decorated the front porch for Halloween. Our version of this involves a trip to the dollar store and spreading out a bunch of fake spider webs and planting a plastic tombstone. Granted, the webs are neon orange and suggest that our spiders are radioactive, but still, I think the kids and I had something a little grander in mind. If you, too, have a lot of Halloween ambition, here are some examples of homes that take their holiday decor to the next level.

Keeping My Head Above Water
3 comments:
I've never commented before. I'm Leah and I have Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, asthma, hypothyroidism, IBS, a dodgy bladder and fertility issues. How's that for a hello?! :)ReplyDelete
I too worry myself sick about the situation with benefits. I'm on Incapacity Benefit at the moment but should be claiming DLA because my mobility is so poor and I keep having accidents (falls etc) around the house, but I'm not claiming, and I'm afraid to. I don't know when my next medical is, but I'm dreading it.
I think David Cameron is going to make Maggie Thatcher look like a pussycat by the time he's finished. He seems to be on a mission to destroy the working classes (or, the ex-working classes!) and perpetrate the myth that disabled people are scroungers and layabouts.
Already hate crimes against the sick and disabled (and their carers) are on the rise, surely helped by the papers who are in Cameron's pocket (The Daily Fail, etc) who constantly run stories about the evil, tax-gobbling people on benefits.
Part of the 'charm' of Cameron's plan is that once the seed of the idea is planted that the country is falling to pieces because of those terrible dole and benefits bludgers (and not those nice banking chaps he's in cahoots with) that the man on the street is happy to rip the disabled to pieces, while Dave sits back and rubs his hands together with glee.
What they don't tell you readily in the press is that benefit fraud costs LESS than benefit blunders. The Government is spending £100 million a year paying ATOS to kick as many people as possible off of health-related benefits. Here's a radical thought - how about they sort out their internal blunders which will save millions, don't pay ATOS £100 million and spend more money helping people who need it? If you need more information about the whole sorry mess, check out DPAC on Facebook (Disabled People Against Cuts). I'm not a part of the organisation, I'm just a woman scared to death about my future, and yours, and everyone else's. x
I am so sorry to hear about your situation. I left my job also because it was getting harder and harder to keep it up day in and day out. I now work for myself and that has made it much easier on my health. I also recently went through a drama getting insurance coverage. I am not looking forward to a time when I can't afford medical coverage. I am sorry you are going such a rough time.ReplyDelete
It's a challenge every day living with a medical condition - as you know all too well - but I'm glad to be alive no matter how crap it gets.ReplyDelete
My friend Rach has RA (which is how I came across your blog) and we've found that venting is as good a way as any to make the crappest seem days better. I'm lucky to have loads of good support, and I hope you do too.

See... Another winner.
Right, Rob. And people actually wonder why things are going to hell in s handbasket?
my photograph on violence is part of a work entitled the truth behind the door, taken from a real story that he told me a friend who has been raped. After the story I imagined the story in my own way trying to highlight a problem throughout the world (one in three women has been raped), it is not a nice story, but a complaint against this crime
I think I might have to move to Tuscany.
I have, I'm happy to say, no first-hand experience. However, I suspect that few women about to be raped, or who have just ben raped, are naked except for stiletto heeled shoes. That kind of dress is commoner in pornography (I'm told).Jeremy(sorry if the thread has moved on; I'm on holiday and reading only sporadically)
I take it you don't dig Helmut Newton, then? He has publicly admitted to a box of the less pleasant sort of image, but I don't think that should imply that the lady's dress, of itself, indicates porn; I can easily imagine many times when such dress would be highly stimulating in the very finest traditions of consensual marital love... However, the Fatty Arbuckle equipment adds a sinister note, even if the model's using the wrong brand.Rob C
The heels in this case, are the emblem of the "trade".
