Mew-genics video shows the game's opening scene
Team Meat's cat sim Mew-genics is on the floor at PAX Prime in Seattle, but not playable as planned. Still, those who happen to stop by the booth can pick up the official Mew-genics comic. Even though the game wasn't playable as originally planned, folks can at least watch the opening scene for it below. It's awesome. Mew-genics tasks players with collecting, caring for cats – much my life as a crazy cat lady – and then players can breed the felines and enter them into cat shows, cat fights, cat races and other crazy things. Mew-genics is slated for an initial release on PC and iPad in 2014.

Team Meat: DRM is more damaging to companies than piracy, says Refenes

because there's not any x64 specific version of flash. you can check that in here. it's the same thing for java. you can check that in www.java.com , at the link "all the java downloads in here". also, some tools doesn't work properly in a x64 system. but please, be more specific for the remain extra software. we may look if there's any x64 version for the missing ones. but if flash x86 works under any x64 system, please report it that we may change the module to load in x64 systems. if you wish, flash player can be downloaded from here. of course, it is also under modules\AddOns\flashplayer_IE_files at the extras package. the same thing for java

Would you also be willing to use your system as a test bed and offer some detection information?
We barely have anyone maintaining an x64 release, let alone extras for said release.
Are you willing to help create an x64 extras list with testing, links, installation information etc.

Parenting does not only mean taking care of the baby but also taking care of the budget. This is the reason why most mothers always look for ways to cover everything without sacrificing the savings. It is not news anymore that the costs of consumer items keep getting higher. If you are nursing a newborn, 70 percent of your monthly budget probably goes to baby supplies alone. Milk, baby wipes, and diapers undeniably are leading in the outlay department. If not tightening the belt, and compromising your baby's health and welfare for that matter, you can resort to the most practical option – diaper coupons. Of course, you have to be smart and snappy in spotting the best offers. Although you can get other ideas from your fellow mothers how they manage to cut down their expenses by 20% each month, earning diaper coupons will be of great advantage.
Sometimes, it is more logical to purchase diapers in bulk to avail of coupons. Some stores prefer to have it this way to ensure profits. Although it seems impractical to buy more than what you will need for a week, this technique is in fact like hitting two birds with one stone. To think, it would not harm your budget at all for long especially if a larger percent of it goes to baby supplies. Buying six packs of 36s and getting discounts coupons that you can use on your next purchase is much wiser than buying smaller packs good for one week and not getting the token.
Going online is the best way to get it. So to speak, the most convenient place to find diaper coupons is the web. Why look further when you can have what you are looking for in a few clicks of the mouse? Hypermarts, grocery stores, and pharmacies have web sites where they offer printable diaper discount coupons without the hassles of joining a mob of other coupon fanatics. Aside from leading diaper brands, you might also find coupons for other baby supplies such as baby wipes and major grocery items that will allow you to enjoy bigger savings. The diaper manufacturers do the same thing. Huggies.com, for example posts promos for all its diaper lines on their web site. If you are lucky, you will get diaper coupons without having to register although doing so will be an advantage as you will get regular updates on the latest deals, coupons, discounts, promos, or sale. Sometimes, the manufacturers send the discount coupons via web.
To help you in your browsing, you can key in the keywords like "diaper coupons" or "diaper discounts" in your searches. It will take you only a couple of minutes or less to get what offers attract you the most. Bluwiki.com and printablecoupons.blogspot.com are also a haven for discount coupons. You can visit these sites and bask in its wide array of coupons linked from major coupon providers as well.
Flier distribution is the classic way to get diaper discount coupons and a lot of stores where baby supplies are available still do it to this day. Looking around and finding a promo agent distributing fliers would be luck. Check for baby-friendly deals that always come with a discount stubs by asking sales staff if you cannot find one.
It may be really expensive to have a baby at home. For mothers, it is an even stressful task. Gaining access to diaper coupons would lessen the burden on the budget somehow. Your job now is to go and get those coupons whenever you stumble upon one. Not only can you save for the baby's other future expenses such as medical checkup and vitamins, you also learn to control how you spend your monthly allowance.

Rationalizing Numbers II
When I tell friends I'm a "commercial mediator" and they say "huh?" I say, "I rationalize numbers for a living." What I'm doing now, however, is procrastinating. Since I promised you "Changing Minds, Part II," I've blogged about creativity, love, blogging/marketing, the Israeli Prisoner Exchange negotiations, and, Outsourcing Associate Jobs. Then I posted The Miniature Earth Video. It's a lot of work procrastinating, particularly since I'm writing Changing Minds, Part II to procrastinate finishing a Daily Journal article about drafting arbitration clauses. Now there's work worthy of some high-level procrastination. Still, I think all that brain science from Changing Minds Part I got to...

Sergei Babayan International Piano Academy
Established in 1996, Mr. Babayan founded the piano academy at CIM to assemble a group of pianists who wish to explore in-depth the instrument and repertoire.
May 21-31, 2013
This intense, highly individualized two-week program with Sergei Babayan will provide each student with six lessons (one every other day) with Mr. Babayan as well as the opportunity to observe the coaching of other Academy participants. Air-conditioned facilities include Steinway pianos; practice rooms are available during all hours. The Institute's main building is open daily (usually 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.). To conclude the academy, students will perform a marathon recital. In addition, CIM offers professional quality Recording Services (audio and video), for an additional fee, to anyone who has a recital program prepared and would like to record an audition tape. Recording Services are subject to hall time and personnel availability.
"This summer Academy will offer an intensely concentrated two-week period of study directed towards the specific needs of each individual whether it be fundamental technical work, the preparation of competition programs or personal philosophical journeys.
"I believe that artists must live and work at a fever-pitch in the incessant pursuit of ideal beauty and the highest degree of artistry. My hope is to inspire students to focus intensely on a single facet of the music, for hours if necessary, in their 'search for the fire-bird.' This way of searching together for artistic expression and individuality has evolved from the great traditions in the Russian school of my teachers - Vera Gornostaeva, Lev Naumov and Mikhail Pletnev. I look forward to sharing this journey towards artistry this summer." - Sergei Babayan
The 2013 Babayan Academy will take place at CIM from May 21 to May 31, 2013. The final concert will be held on May 31 at 6:00 p.m. in Mixon Recital Hall.

"We opted for a photo-less birth announcement because I loved the simplicity and design of this card (we included wallet-sized photos of our new arrival). It is even more vibrant in person and the quality is excellent. I would select these again in a heartbeat and may need to order those matching thank you notes!"
"I was looking for an airplane birthday invitation for my son's party and stumbled across this birth announcement. I easily edited it to be an invitation and it came out perfectly! Love them!!!"
"Loved the classic, sweet, baby boy feel of this announcement! It turned out beautiful! I used a color picture, close-up of his face, and he was in baby blue. Looked really sweet with the design!"
"So pleased to have found an amazing company with fantastic customer care that personalizes cards and other stationary needs. Tiny Prints lived up to their promise of a speedy international delivery , and a great product with a range of templates to be personalised with a good choice of different fonts and colours. I will be using them from now on as my stationers."
"Quality of the paper was high; loved the way it turned out. I wanted a chic baby card that didn't have animals and classic baby stuff on it but still wanted it to look like it was a birth announcement. This was perfect"

Court: 15-year-old molester has a right to Facebook, Twitter
A 15-year-old juvenile delinquent can't be completely prohibited from using Facebook, Twitter, or other social-media sites, a California state appeals court says.
The San Diego court ruled that a teenage boy who molested a toddler and grabbed and detained a teenage girl has a First Amendment right to use social media and chat rooms -- in part, the justices said, because his offenses didn't involve the Internet.
Those restrictions "are not tailored to Andre's convictions for violating another's personal liberty, willfully annoying and molesting another, unlawful use of force, and lewd and lascivious conduct, or … Read more

Photo Gallery | National magazine lists Memphis as one of the unhealthiest cities for women
Memphis is listed as the fourth unhealthiest city for women according to Women's Health Magazine.
Women's Health's research team compiled data on 38 measures of health and well being, such as access to medical care, cancer rates, obesity rates and longevity.
The team also looked at lifestyle factors — everything from nutrition to unemployment to happiness and fitness — by using survey responses from places like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the U.S. Census and the American Cancer Society.
As Memphis is listed as one of the worst cities for Women's health, CEO of Healthy Memphis Common Table Renee Frazier said Memphis has been improving the environment to make it healthier for women and men in Memphis.
"For the first time in years, we have seen a decrease in obesity because we are focusing on healthy eating and activities," he said.
Frazier said the change is because of adjusting local polices and installing bike lanes and walkways.
"We have 14 farmers markets for anyone... if we want to change behavior, we have to change the environment — and that's exactly what we're doing," he said.
Another initiative is that Shelby County controlled vending machines are serving better snacks; 70 machines will serve food that's under 150 calories.
Frazier mentioned Healthy Memphis is working with restaurants to have calories labeled on their menu.
"There's a lot of work going on in Memphis," he said.

AdoptionHelp Haiti Act of 2010
Since November 1995, National Adoption Month has provided a forum to celebrate families and increase awareness of the hundreds of thousands of children awaiting adoption – both in the United States and abroad. USCIS is proud to help unite adoptive children from around the world with American families who desire to provide a permanent and loving home for them. In fiscal year 2013, USCIS approved nearly 5,600 intercountry adoption-related petitions and played a crucial role in thousands more. View adoption photos on Facebook, follow us on twitter @uscis and read stories of families who worked with USCIS to adopt internationally on our blog, the Beacon. Each year, thousands of U.S. citizens adopt children from overseas. This is known as an intercountry adoption. Adopting a child from another country is often a complicated journey, and the information on this site is designed to help you as you move forward. USCIS is Responsible For:
Which Process is For You?There are three processes for adopting a child internationally. Two separate processes apply only to children adopted by U.S. citizens. Depending on what country you choose to adopt from will determine which process you will adopt by. Another process applies to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident who may petition for his/her adoptive child through an Immediate Relative Petition. For more information on immigration through adoption see the links to the left. This page can be found at: http://www.uscis.gov/adoption

1/2/2010 11:26:00 AM by Meadows Team in Connection, FAQ, Media Center | 11 comments
You may have noticed that the temperature and windspeed values on our conditions page are reported in near real time this season. This was made possible by the installation this fall of new "data loggers" at the Northwest Weather and Avalanche Center (NWAC) telemetry stations located at the top and bottom of our Mt. Hood Express lifts. These data loggers provide continuous readings, which we update on our web site every five minutes. This entirely automated process provides the most accurate and immediate weather readings to our conditions page and those who view it.
We still provide the link to the NWAC 24 hour telemetry, which records hourly readings. However, there is a delay of up to 30 minutes before the hourly data is presented. This can create discrepencies between the "real time" readings reported on our site, and the hourly reading reported on the NWAC site, but we feel it is better to provide the most current data possible.
We also use the real time data for our snow phone reports, our Fuel TV monitors in the lodge and the emailed snow report which goes out to subsribers at 5:40 AM each morning. Because some of our guests have noticed discrepencies in the NWAC hourly temperature reports and our "real time" reports, we did a comparison of the two over an 11 day period. Keep in mind, the readings are coming from the same data loggers units, this is just a difference in time of when they are recorded.
Here's a comparison of the 5:40 AM temps reported in our email compared to the 5 AM temps reported on NWAC. The first temperature is the 5:40 AM value which was sent out in our snow report email each morning. The second temperature is the NWAC 5 AM reading. We "bolded" any discrepencies between the two.
Date: Bottom .. Top01/02: 27 / 28 .. 22 / 2301/01: 35 / 36 .. 30 / 3112/31: 24 / 25 .. 21 / 2212/30: 25 / 25 .. 20 / 2212/29: 21 / 21 .. 19 / 2012/28: 27 / 27 .. 24 / 2312/27: 17 / 17 .. 18 / 1812/26: 29 / 30 .. 25 / 2512/25: 34 / 33 .. 40 / 4012/24: 28 / 28 .. 32 / 3212/23: 22 / 22 .. 24 / 28 (The 6 AM NWAC was 24 so the temp was dropping between 5 AM and 6 AM)
So out of the 11 days reported, the 5:40 AM "real time" reading appearing in our snow report emails:
Bottom Telemetry: 4 Days 1 Degree less than 5 AM6 Days Exact Match of 5 AM1 Day 1 degree more than 5 AM
Top Telemetry:1 Day 4 Degrees less than 5 AM1 Day 2 Degrees less than 5 AM4 Days 1 Degree less than 5 AM4 Days Exact Match of 5 AM1 Day 1 Degree more than 5 AM
Bottom line:7 out of 11 days the 5:40 AM matched or was warmer than the 5 AM at the Bottom of Express.5 out of 11 days the 5:40 AM matched or was warmer than the 5 AM at the Top of Express.
We present this information so you can better understand where these temperature readings come from and how we report them. Again, this all comes directly from the telemetry automatically - it is not altered or filtered in any way by Mt. Hood Meadows. We believe this is the best way to present the most accurate and immediate weather data for our guests.
-- Meadows Team
I would like to commend you on advances in reporting conditions over the past year. The lift conditions and live temp updates are very useful.However, the snowphone message has become unwieldy. Please indicate temperature, snowfall, lift closures (if most lifts are open it saves much time to only list closures) and windspeed on the phone message FIRST, before listing information that changes less frequently or is less "important." Phone reception is sometimes spotty on the way to the mountain, so calls can drop out before the end of a long message. Thanks.
Delay or no delay, I'll trust a 3rd party's data over Meadows. They have NO investment in putting heads on the hill.Meadows: FYI: Meadows was the first resort to provide a publish a link to the telemetry collected by NWAC. It's been displayed on our web site and we have used their conditions readings (not ours) for over a decade. Our cameras also tell a convincing story of conditions on the hill. Our focus is accuracy and immediacey - conveying to our guests these conditions as quickly as possible.
Hi Tom, I'm Temira and I update the snowphone and website at Meadows, along with Nick and David. I am on the hill on Saturday and Sunday during the day, updating the phone and website with honest and accurate information. We also have snow reporters on the slopes, updating our information in real-time, at any time we are open. I promise you, with my reputation at stake, that the information we provide is as accurate and timely as humanly possible. As a skier myself, I understand the importance of honesty in condition reporting. I don't want to be lied to, and neither I, nor any of the other reporters, will lie to you. Hope this helps clarify things. Have a great day!
I've skied at just about every area in the western U.S. and Canada, and over the last couple years your conditions reports have been more detailed and accurate than just about anybody's. I appreciate it. In fact, I think the Meadows has made a terrific turnaround in service and attitude recently. Cheers.
Is there daily snowfall history we can get to, any more? You used to have daily precipitation listed for the whole season (and a couple previous seasons, too).Meadows: We'll see if we can revive that - we're pulling our conditions off of the telemetry differently from in the past.
I, too, appreciate the accurate conditions reporting. I remember not too many years ago when the only conditions reported were "powder" and "packed powder." Packed powder meant you would be sliding down the mountain uncontrolled on a sheet of ice. You might lose a few sales by being honest, but you'll make it up in the trust you'll gain.
Having been to various Colorado, California, Utah and Nevada resorts, I have to agree that Meadows is one the most accurate in reporting conditions. There's a least one Central Oregon resort that considers 50 mph winds to be "moderate" :-)I especially appreciate the "truth cams", but rely on a combination of available data to determine what to wear, when to arrive, or if I should just roll over and try again tomorrow.
I agree the weather details and forecast for Mt. Hood are the best I have ever seen. That being said lets be honest, the other resorts don't have rain 4 to 5 times a week on the entire or lower half of their mountains, plus everyone doesn't have to drive a hundred plus miles round trip to ski for a day. There is usually tons of lodging near the ski resorts. The weather reporting for Mt. Hood is a must; it's the only way to make the lemonade. I do appreciate the recent more honest snow report conditions now that the holidays are behind us.Everyone pray for colder weather and real power ---- not the heavy wet snow Hood is known for.
When will the winter season start this year?Meadows: At her own prerogative =0} The past two seasons we've enjoyed early openings - November 20 and November 11 respectively. It's common to be open, at least on a limited basis, by Thanksgiving, hopefully, sooner!
What does the base need to be to open??Meadows: Oh, about 33". We'll be opening Thanksgiving day!
HOW LONG DOES THE SEASON USUALLY LAST....Meadows: Lifts are scheduled to operate daily through Sunday, April 28. So we have well over two months remaining. March and April can present some of the best skiing of the season - so we'll see you on the mountain!

We've had this since my son was 1 year old and he has always loved playing with it and still does. After reading a couple of the reviews I just had to write one.First, the product is very durable - if put together correctly. You have to make sure you hear a snap or click -- if you don't then it didn't get put together right. If it's put together correctly the rim doesn't wobble and the heigh adjust stays on just fine. As for the net, if you take your time and make sure everything is strung properly then it will not fall off. We've had it for over 1 year with no problems.I'd also recommend putting sand in the base to make it more stable (we didn't need sand for the first 2 setting), as water evaporates and will start to get a smell after a while.We're currently using it inside, as we live in the desert. So it can be used inside or out.It's fun for the whole family, including grandparents. I love seeing my son, shoot and slam dunk. It's amazing what they can do at this age.I'd buy it again and again. Great as a gift!!

We bought this for our 20 month son for Christmas this past year, and he really enjoys it...until it falls apart. I am not sure if we somehow managed to put it together incorrectly or what(even though we did read the directions when putting it together), but the hoop is always falling off! If my son so much as touches the rim it falls right off. It seems like I am snapping it into place, and my husband has pushed it in as well, yet it keeps falling off. Our son is not an aggressive child and does not destruct his toys, so I can not understand why we can't get this thing to stay together! The ball that came with it keeps deflating as well. We have since purchased another small basketball to replace it. We do still use the basketball hoop, and continually replace the hoop and net, because our son does love to play with it, but I am very disappointed with it (especially since most of the other reviews on it are quite good) I would not buy this again or suggest it to anyone considering the way the toy is used and the number of times it has come apart.

On June 27, 2012, it was once again time for the Training and Development department to recognize and honor this year's graduates of the Training Certificate Program. In a very special graduation luncheon ceremony, 31 recipients were recognized, bringing the seven year graduation total to 291. The event was hosted by the Office of Human Resources, and in attendance were Ms. Martha Hirst, Senior Vice President for Operations and Treasurer; Ms. Mary Harper Hagan, Senior Vice President for Human Resources and Strategic Planning; Rev. James Maher, C.M., Executive Vice President for Mission; Dr. Julie Upton, RSM, Provost; and Mr. Robert Wile, Senior Vice President and Chief of Staff.Photo Gallery Testimonials Mary Harper Hagan opened the ceremony with a welcome and introduction to over 70 University employees from 17 departments, with honorees and their managers in attendance. She acknowledged the managers for supporting professional development at the University and for encouraging their employees to attend the HR Certificate Program workshops. Father Maher offered an opening prayer and Dr. Upton extended her congratulations to the recipients, thanked them for their perseverance, and commented how the recipients' commitment to lifelong learning benefits the students. Martha Hirst closed the program by commending the graduates for electing to pursue this achievement voluntarily. She likened them to individual threads in a tapestry - as those individual talents are woven together the color becomes more vibrant and the tapestry grows more superb. She closed by encouraging the graduates to continue their learning journey and to encourage their peers to embark on a learning journey of their own.
The recipients received a Certificate Plaque Award that acknowledged their commitment to life-long learning. The honorees were staff and administrators from various University departments, representing the academic and operations sectors, the Office of Mission and Student Services and Institutional Advancement.
The certificate recipients completed one of three program tracks available for staff, professionals ( non-supervisory administrators) and managers. Managers completed such workshops as The People Management Series, including The Facts about Compensation, Managing for Success, Preventing Sexual Harassment and Discrimination, and Coaching for Exceptional Performance. Administrators and staff completed workshops such as Quality Service, Business Writing, and Successful Presentation Skills. All program participants also attended Diversity Awareness training, Vincentian Mission Orientation and Partnership for Performance (PFP) workshops.
Since 1999, when the Training and Development department was formed, over 30,000 participants have enhanced their learning through the broad range of workshops offered by Human Resources. The Training and Development Certificate Program was launched in 2003 and provides employees with the opportunity to progress through three targeted professional development tracks by following a defined development curriculum of core and elective courses. The program supports the University's strategic goal to build an organization of strong leaders where faculty, administrators and staff are enabled, motivated and engaged. It builds on the St. John's culture of life-long learning and aims to inspire learners to make a difference.
To learn more about workshop offerings, visit our Training and Development Workshop Calendar. We look forward to seeing you in training… and who knows; maybe next year it will be YOU who graduates!

Process and quality solutions from A to Z
FOODTECH is the only Dutch trade show that offers a platform for the food producing and processing industry. FOODTECH 2013 really is a must for anyone who wants to save costs, produce more efficient and sustainable, to increase the quality and hygiene, to keep up with the current legislations and is looking for packaging solutions.
"FOODTECH and EMPACK Zwolle was a clear and compact tradeshow that I did not know. I actually visit for the learnShops about legislation for food packaging. The learnShops met my expectations, but what I liked most was the enormous variety of exhibitors and information together in a clear area. Eventually I went home with several new contacts and a lot of information. It was well worth the visit!'' Hans van 't Veen - R&D Manager - Hi-Tech Coatings
A regional focus
During FOODTECH Zwolle there is an emphasis on the provinces Overijssel, Flevoland, Noord-Holland, Groningen, Drenthe and Friesland. In this way, the show distinguishes itself from the annual edition of FOODTECH, Rosmalen.
Just as in the last editions, FOODTECH Zwolle will be organised together with EMPACK Zwolle. By combining these two shows, easyFairs capitalises on the synergies between the packaging and food industries. This guarantees you a complete overview of the latest trends and developments relevant for your sector, and also profit from the good ideas and suppliers they find at a related show.
VMT is the official catalog partner of FOODTECH ZWOLLE 2013 and realises the official eventspecial.

A finding that Hezbollah is to blame for the bomb attack that killed five Israeli tourists in Bulgaria last July adds to pressure on the European Union to label the controversial group an outlaw terrorist organization.
The Bulgarian government's announcement of its conclusions Tuesday also could complicate life for Lebanon's coalition government, of which Hezbollah is a member.
Bulgarian Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov told reporters in Sofia that of the three people who carried out the attack, "We have established that two were members of the militant wing of Hezbollah. There is information that shows financing and the connection between Hezbollah and the two suspects."
He also said the pair had traveled on genuine Australian and Canadian passports, though it's not clear whether the documents had been stolen.
Hezbollah has said nothing about Israel's previous accusation that it was responsible for the attack, which occurred outside a bus waiting at the airport in the Bulgarian resort of Burgas.
The United States and Israel seized on the conclusion of the Bulgarian investigation to urge the EU to move against Hezbollah. President Barack Obama's counterterrorism adviser, John Brennan, said Tuesday the investigation had exposed Hezbollah as "a terrorist group that is willing to recklessly attack innocent men, women, and children, and that poses a real and growing threat not only to Europe, but to the rest of the world."
In a statement issued from the White House, Brennan said, "Bulgaria's implication of (Hezbollah) underscores the importance of international cooperation in disrupting terrorist threats.
"We call on our European partners as well as other members of the international community to take proactive action to uncover (Hezbollah's) infrastructure and disrupt the group's financing schemes and operational networks."
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry reiterated the call for European countries to "crack down on Hezbollah."
"We need to send an unequivocal message to this terrorist group that it can no longer engage in despicable actions with impunity," he said in a statement.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also commended the Bulgarian investigation, saying: "The attack in Burgas was an attack on European soil against a member country of the EU. We hope that the Europeans draw the necessary conclusions as to the true character of Hezbollah."
Canada also joined the chorus, with Foreign Minister John Baird issuing a statement saying: "We urge the European Union and all partners who have not already done so to list Hezbollah as a terrorist entity and prosecute terrorist acts committed by this inhumane organization to the fullest possible extent."
A technical analysis of the explosion, carried out by a team of consultants and provided on background to CNN, said the Israeli tourists had placed their luggage in a baggage compartment along the side of the bus and were boarding when the explosion occurred. The bomb -- concealed in a backpack -- went off in a confined space between two buses, instantly killing four of the tourists and the bus driver, as well as the bomber.
The consultants' analysis of closed-circuit video of the suspected bomber waiting in the terminal and of the remains of the device suggests that the bomb was detonated by remote radio control. Residue from two radio transceivers was recovered from the scene, along with a dual-tone multiple-frequency circuit. The explosive charge was approximately 3 kilograms (6 pounds) of TNT and ammonite, probably obtained from a Bulgarian company, according to the consultants.
Whether the bomber intended to kill himself is unclear. It is possible that he planned to load the backpack on the bus and detonate it remotely as it pulled away. The premature detonation of the device before all members of the Israeli group were on board the bus could have been caused by a malfunction or by violent movement, or it could have happened as the device was being armed.
Alternatively, an accomplice could have detonated the bomb from a nearby vantage point, in which case the bomber may have been deceived about his true role in the attack.
Bulgarian investigators last month said their evidence was that the bombing was not intended as a suicide attack.
Analysts say the attack was not that of a "lone wolf" but rather required planning and reconnaissance, suggesting a well-orchestrated plan.
Last year, Matthew Olsen, director of the U.S. National Counterterrorism Center, said in a congressional hearing that the Bulgarian attack could have been part of a growing international campaign of terror attacks by Hezbollah.
"Since May 2008, Hezbollah plots against Israeli targets in Azerbaijan, Egypt and Israel have been disrupted, and additional operational activity in Turkey has reportedly been uncovered," Olsen said.
But while the United States has stepped up efforts to interdict Hezbollah's international financial operations, the group has enjoyed greater freedom in Europe.
Germany's annual threat report in 2012 concluded that nearly 1,000 Hezbollah members and supporters lived there. Hezbollah raises money quietly in several European cities, according to intelligence agencies, to support its extensive network of social programs in Lebanon.
Only the Netherlands among the main European governments describes Hezbollah as a terrorist organization. Britain distinguishes between its military wing -- which is proscribed -- and its work as a political party in Lebanon. France and other EU states do not characterize any part of Hezbollah as a terrorist organization.
If the European Union moves toward unified sanctions against Hezbollah, the current Lebanese coalition government led by Prime Minister Najib Mikati may be in jeopardy
Mohanad Hage Ali, a Lebanese expert on Hezbollah based at the London School of Economics, told CNN, "Since Mikati formed his government two years ago, there has been steady European support. But since Hezbollah is part of this government, more EU member states are likely to dissociate themselves from Mikati's government" if the link with the Bulgaria bombing is confirmed.

This is in California fleeing that state tax rates cost of doing business just too much one place they're going to Phoenix Arizona and here's why.
According to the Phoenix economic council operating costs off 40% -- -- and in California.
Arizona so attractive to business but in the last eight years more than sixty California companies have relocated that Phoenix mag -- stand and join -- Right now Iran welcomed the show good to have you with us.
Great to be on -- a good night you've got a great climate on the stand that you -- support of a cent Lullabot I want to know.
Did you -- is those California company is over the -- by giving them huge.
Tax breaks.
-- -- -- -- Or in Arizona that we are as competitive as as possible that a yes we are what it.
We do have appropriate.
Tax programs tax incentives and but -- -- company is not gonna move.
A -- not gonna expand and Arizona.
Just because of the tax situation they're gonna look over the long haul over the long term whether you have.
Environment that is right for business I think in in Phoenix and Arizona we are trying to get things right over the long haul we can build a more diverse sustainable high wage economy I think we're headed in the right direction just out of interest I'm not being flip him it -- well.
Kind of tax breaks do you offer him images just give a rough idea.
Sure that we have a a tax credit for if you hire high wage jobs if you bring manufacturing to our state you're gonna get a tax credit.
-- resurgent development you'll get it you'll get a tax credit if you wouldn't engage in sustainability green jobs.
You'll get a get a tax credit look we saw the landscape around the country and we wanted to make sure we -- as competitive -- as possible a lot of it is not going to be companies moving from California.
But at this economy improves a lot of a lot of company is going to be expanding.
And we want them to look at our city our state as they make those important expansion did you particularly get for those high wage jobs did you actually go to California -- -- -- And then -- -- and -- and loose.
I have been there -- and I will be there again sure look we travel anywhere in the country -- can.
To be competitive on the on the job market -- -- competitive environment and by the way.
People fly to Phoenix and try to talk to our local companies as they look to expand and grow and as as a pop -- -- -- -- LA sources of competitive environment.
How about Illinois and we all know that California is in dire financial shape we know vast but Illinois is as well.
And Illinois doesn't have as good climates as California does not mean weather wise you go up -- and try to bring him down.
Sure we have.
In the job recruitment business.
You look around the country for where the best opportunities are but again you you if you're not just gonna sweet talk these companies.
You gotta make sure you have the fundamentals right not just tax policy but you gotta have.
Great neighborhood you got to have great arts and culture you gotta be committed to education you gotta have a quality of life that these employees so that they're gonna try to recruit.
Are gonna wanna live -- so workforce development making sure you have the right people in place which were lucky enough to have we have a great workforce here in Arizona is one of our competitive advantages.
You're a Democrat.
You're you're you're a Democrat and video you're you're you're offering you know -- good business client.
Tax subsidies tax breaks you know.
You're offering relief from those wicked environment -- -- restrictions that are in place in California and -- your head.
Democrat is that not something of a contradiction value -- No you gotta be Smart about economic development you gotta be Smart about economic.
Policy look I've got to fight just as part of -- -- for.
Our schools and education could over the long haul unless you have an education system that people have confidence in.
You're not gonna build the long term sustainable.
Diverse economy so.
One is not the opposite of the other and you shouldn't say -- on one side of the aisle or the other right I view that as an old way of thinking.
We can be Smart about tax policy and Smart about getting the fundamentals right the quality of life issues right so I don't view those as opposite -- -- OK I wish -- go to Washington and say that but we appreciate being with us today thanks very much -- great staff -- -- of Phoenix thanks for coming -- appreciate aggressive special operation.
