f S,. W" 111 j-i , --"l' ilili.Mii .mil " i h T: i V V: I r Vol. 36 No. 29 wsc may Due to what they see as a need for inexpensive child care on the WSC campus, the Women's Campus Life Organization is working . io 'start a day care center on campus. Carol Finely, a vice president ,in the group, said that as soon as the idea is officially approved by the executive council, the organization will be able to get funds to start on the project. A poll The funds will allow the group, among other things, to take a poll to determine if there is really a need for a day care center on t: Blue Key opens oors by Don Terry Assistant Editor The Blue Key Honor Fraternity has become a co-ed organization said Dr. Richard M. Alston, associate professor of economics and Blue Key advisor. Alston said that it all started last spring when Vicki Carr was on campus. She was presented with an honorary membership in the Blue Key Fraternity which signaled the opening of the service organization to females. This will not have any real effect on Cardinal Key, the women's honor sorority, said Alston, because they haven't been very active anyway. Alston further stated that the Cardinal Key members were invited to join with Blue Key but they declined. There had been some reports that even though Blue Key was officially open to women, they were being discouraged from rushing. Alston stated that this was not true. He said that the reason the rumors started was because one girl had applied for membership but due to an illness was not able to attend any rush meetings . so she withdrew her application and even withdrew from school for the quarter. Alston said that two other girls had talked about joining Blue Key but didn't because they did not have the money at the time to pay membership fees. Alston said that all service and business clubs should be co-ed and he encourages anyone on campus (male or female) with a get child campus. Finely said, "I think that we're going to find a need on this campus more for infant care," but that a poli-;will show where the real need is. The project is being handled jointly by the executive council and the womenls group. Finley said that both groups apparently came up with the idea at approximately the same time, and Toni Weight, dean of women, brought the two groups together. Finding funds . Participation by the executive council will be an advantage to women 2.7 average or better and interested in serving others i . Or If r w - .-s . ... vh.j'd I mm.,. Men's Work?: Blue Key members Bruce Johns (left), Tom Carne and Nevin Heslop work on ramps for the handicapped last spring. When Blue Key gets back to work on projects this spring, women maybe included for the first time. Weber State College according to Finely since the Women's Campus Life Organization has very little funding and would otherwise have to foot the bill themselves. On Wednesday, representatives from the women's group' and student government met with a representative of Utah State to discuss the situation there. Four years Finely said that it took four years for Utah State to get their day care center going but that the information gained get their day care center going but that the information gained at Wed- through service projects to rush for Blue Key. 4 care cenfer nesday's meeting probably cut three years off the time it will take Weber to get started. Among the topics discussed at the meeting were the legal requirements of a day care center and the other problems that were encountered in starting a center. One of the major problems that existed at Utah State and that Finely feels will be a problem at Weber is finding a site. Finely said, "I think it should be in the U.B.," since that is the building that is for student use outside of academics. Remodeling Farrell Shepard, director of the Union Building, said that if the Day Care Center were placed in the building . that some remodeling might have to be done to meet the state technical requirements as well as the needs of the center. A resolution on the Day Care . Center was supposed to be discussed before the Executive Council yesterday. However since there were not enough members present for a quorum, the issue has yet to be officially February 13, 1976 introduced. The Women's .Campus Organization can be contacted through Toni Weight's office at extension 666. The organization is also working on a housing service to nrovide information on which if.idlords in Ogden will rent to married students. Finely noted that this is a particular problem since many married students have no regular income and many people will not rent to them. Other events being planned by the group include two medical seminars and a shot clinic. On March l, there will be a Women's Health Seminar with Drs. William Egbert and H. Darrell Woods, who will discuss birth control, giving birth, pap smears, mental health, and the problems of organ removal. The group is also planning a seminar on "Nutrition during Pregnancy" for Spring quarter but no date has been officially set. There are also plans for a shot clinic sometime this quarter. 1

|Signpost (Weber, Utah), 1976-02-13, Vol. 36, No. 29
|Weber State College
|Associated Students of Weber College; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

On April 16, Marketing 101 will include a presentation on the basics of marketing by Tom Dorr of the Center for Economic Vitality.
The workshop also will feature a presentation by Michelle Long of Sustainable Connections on community-based social marketing.

I would bet against it. There are similar buff items for Storm Peaks that aren't usable in Ulduar. Blizzard tries to limit the buffs you can get so they don't have to balance content around the assumption that you have those buffs, and so the hardcore guilds can't make those buffs mandatory and ruin their players' fun.

KFEQ--In a letter to customers this morning, the CME group announced a prolonged shutdown could impact some CME services.
You can read the text below:
October 1, 2013
You can read the text below:
October 1, 2013
To Our Customers:
As you're aware, last night Congress was unable to agree on a spending bill, which resulted in the
shutdown of many U.S. government services and the furloughing of government employees today. As a
valued customer, we wanted you to be aware this is an issue we continue to closely monitor, as it's
possible that a prolonged shutdown of the federal government could have an impact on the settlement
procedures of certain dairy and livestock products at CME Group.
A prolonged shutdown of the federal government and furloughing of USDA staff could result in
interruptions or gaps in reporting key agricultural pricing information from the USDA's Agricultural
Marketing Service (AMS). As a result, we wanted you to be aware that settlement prices for certain CME
dairy and livestock contracts, which are cash settled based on USDA data, could be impacted in the
event of a prolonged shutdown of the agency and may require the exchange to modify the current
settlement procedures of the following products
Here is a list of CME dairy and livestock contracts that may be impacted:
- Dairy – September 2013 Class III Milk, Class IV Milk, Butter, Whey, Cheese and Non-Fat Dry
Milk futures and options
- Livestock – October 2013 Lean Hogs, Live Cattle and Feeder Cattle futures and options
We continue to closely monitor this situation and will keep you apprised of any potential changes to the
settlement procedures for CME dairy and livestock contracts. Current procedures for the settlement of
CME dairy and livestock futures can be found in our CME Rulebook -
All customer inquiries may be directed to David Lehman, Managing Director, Commodity Research and
Product Development at 312.930.1875, email@example.com; Jack Cook, Director, Commodity
Research & Product Development at 312.930.3295, firstname.lastname@example.com; or Tom Clark, Director,
Commodity Products, at 312.930.4595, email@example.com. Media inquiries should be

Christina Aguilera let Cee Lo Green's smelly secret slip in a new TV interview -- the "Forget You" hitmaker has a gas issue.
The two stars are rival judges/mentors on "The Voice" and Aguilera reveals she doesn't like to sit too close to the not-so-funky-fresh hitmaker.
Bing: Listen to Christina's duet with Blake Shelton
She tells chat show host Ellen DeGeneres, "(I'm sitting) between Blake and Cee Lo with his gas over there... That's why I have the fan, you know."
Realizing that she may have upset her pal, Aguilera quickly laughed off her comment and added, "I love you Cee Lo. Don't be mad. Everybody knows."

Couchbase 2 - View on non JSON docs
Using the java client API :
I'm trying to query a view which contains non JSON docs (binary serialized Java Objects)
When executing the query (using the Java Client API - latest release) I'm getting the following exception:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: [my class name removed] cannot be cast to java.lang.String
at com.couchbase.client.protocol.views.ViewRowWithDocs.(ViewRowWithDocs.java:39)
at com.couchbase.client.internal.ViewFuture.get(ViewFuture.java:97)
at com.couchbase.client.internal.ViewFuture.get(ViewFuture.java:48)
at com.couchbase.client.internal.HttpFuture.get(HttpFuture.java:65)
at com.couchbase.client.CouchbaseClient.query(CouchbaseClient.java:584)
My Query instance is set to fetch the docs : query.setIncludeDocs(true)
When set to query.setIncludeDocs(false) - the query execution succeeds but in that case, I don't have the actual docs and I will have to perform an explicit get on each returned row.
Can you add support for this scenario in the java client?
It's actually likely to be faster to perform an explicit get or multi-get on the docs, since that will pull docs from memory and avoid disk I/O...
Is this a formal Couchbase employee response? View query involves Disk I/O ?? I'm not sure about that. If your map can fully reside in memory I don't think that there is any IO involved.
I know that Views are slower than multi get due to the RESTful interface of view query as opposed to the binary protocol of single/multi get. But it has nothing to do with disk io.
Can someone from Couchbase provide answers to the above discussion / bug report?
You can read more about view performance here:
I wasn't aware of that - thanks for pointing it out. I hope that the file system caching is in some way a prevention mechanism against seek IO.
In any case - the bug described above is still an issue and a Couchbase response should be kindly supplied here.
thanks for bringing this up. I filed a ticket for this, where you can track the status too. http://www.couchbase.com/issues/browse/JCBC-125
I'm working on it!
Both john and daschl are part of Couchbase, Inc. Please feel free to email matt at couchbase if there's anything more I can do. We'll have more improvements to serving views in future releases.

Washington/Warrenton Senior Legion and Washington/Wentzville Junior Legion games rained out this evening.
The KLPW Radio Athlete of the Week is Garrett Leimkuehler, Sophomore Quarterback for the Hermann Bearcats. Garrett has completed 58% of his passes, 22 of 38 for 441 yards, six touchdowns and two interceptions. He has also carried the ball 36 times for 371 yards for 13 touchdowns and he is averaging more than 10 yards per carry.
On Saturday, September 6, our family lost a dear friend to a car accident. Listeners know her as Lexi the Impulse Puppy. It surprised us a bit just how much the loss struck us--a tribute to just how much that dog loved us--and just how much we loved that dog. Dogs are not the same as people, but they certainly tap into the very best of us.
Washington will visit Warrenton in the KLPW-AM 1220 broadcast game. Game time is 4:30, Tape delayed broadcast 7:00.
Sullivan will play at Northwest
Washington at Duchesne

My unexpected $2,400 vet bill
In exchange for that princely sum we didn't just get a dog back; Major is a bona fide member of the family.
This post comes from Len Penzo at partner blog Len Penzo dot Com.
That was the answer the Honeybee gave me three years ago after I asked her how much she would pay to save a pet's life.
Unfortunately, last week we got a chance to reconsider that question after we returned from a weeklong family vacation up the California coast.
Almost as soon as we got our 9-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback, Major, back home from doggy day care -- essentially a kennel where dogs have the freedom to roam the facility alongside other canine "guests" and their human caretakers -- he began showing signs of illness.
At first it wasn't anything disconcerting. Just softer-than-usual stools.
Within a couple days, that condition progressed to diarrhea. Still, a little research indicated that common doggy diarrhea was typically nothing to worry about. A quick check of accompanying factors that would have suggested the need for immediate attention were thankfully absent: Major was still eating, there was no blood in his stool, and he was able keep food and water down.
Twenty-four hours later, however, things took a decided turn for the worse.
Our typically fun-loving, gregarious dog became completely detached from the family, uncharacteristically keeping to himself in the corner of our living room. Not long after that, he stopped being able to keep anything down -- not even the smallest amount of water.
Compounding matters, it was now Sunday, which happens to be the only day of the week that Major's vet is closed for business. So we had to take him to a 24-hour specialty veterinary clinic.
By the time Major arrived at the clinic, he was barely responsive and clearly in trouble. Needless to say, the vet began bombarding us with the necessary litany of questions in an urgent attempt to make a diagnosis.
Unfortunately, in Major's case, the symptoms he was displaying were indicative of multiple problems ranging from giardiasis -- an infection caused by the nasty giardia parasite that's typically acquired from pigeon droppings -- to a life-threatening intestinal blockage or even the deadly canine parvovirus.
Of course, the only way to know for sure why Major was suddenly fighting for his life was to conduct a battery of tests -- and they weren't cheap:
- X-rays ($176.40).
- Blood panel ($142.03).
- Barium series and administration ($426.41).
- Additional blood test ($75.34).
- Fecal test for giardia ($53.02).
Add it all up and that's $873.32 just to (hopefully) figure out what was wrong. I know.
A cynical pet owner might suggest that the vet was recommending all those tests to pad the bill, but the fact is, veterinarians have a much tougher job than medical doctors when it comes to pinpointing the cause of their patients' problems. After all, unlike humans, our pets can't tell their doctors exactly where it hurts.
With time of the essence, we authorized all the tests and, after leaving a $1,000 deposit, admitted Major to the vet hospital. At the time, we had no idea whether he would make it through the evening, but we prayed that they could stabilize him.
By Monday morning, Major was stable but still suffering from diarrhea. Thankfully, the vet had ruled out an intestinal blockage, which meant there was no need for surgery.
Meanwhile, the vet bill was getting bigger by the minute. We were being charged $9.98 for every hour Major spent in the hospital.
The medicines used to help control his diarrhea and vomiting, and fight any intestinal infection that might be to blame, weren't cheap. Major was given nine injections at $70.35. Each. For those of you counting at home, that's $633.15.
And you think gasoline is expensive? The first IV given to my dog cost $147.26 -- and I was billed $44.10 for every additional liter of fluid administered thereafter.
By Monday evening Major had gone through five liters of intravenous fluid, but he was finally able to keep his water down. He also ate his first food in more than two days and kept that down, too.
We got Major back on Tuesday, about 10 pounds thinner -- and still not 100% -- but he was clearly on the road to recovery.
And I'm happy to say that, five days after we got him home, he was finally back to his old happy-go-lucky self.
As for the the final diagnosis, the vet attributed Major's ails to a somewhat mysterious affliction known as canine hemorrhagic gastroenteritis. Its cause is unknown, but the vet said stress seems to play a role.
When all was said and done, the final bill came to $2,406.88. Thankfully, we had enough money in our emergency fund to cover the expenses.
Yes, that's a lot of money. But in exchange for that princely sum we didn't just get a dog back; Major is a bona fide member of the Penzo family. And for that reason alone I'd do it all over again -- even at two or three times what I paid this time around.
Whatever it takes, indeed.

Just this past summer, I spent just over $160 for 3 days at the local Vet's just to stabalize my dog who had a broken pelvis, trying to decide if she would benefit from an operation. Another $240 at an animal ER to have the damage properly assessed, then a $2000 deposit at a animal speciality hospital only to find out that she would not ever recover & "fixing" the break would probably result in a slow decline. After a overnigt stay there & a through evaluation, the Vet recommended putting her down. Of all that, we got a refund of $1400. So..., (160+240+600=) for $1100 we "got 5 nights in the 'Hospital", excellent 24/7 care (I was impressed, & I am a nurse!!), our pet was kept pain-free, & the assurance we did all we could for her.
To put that in perspective, I recently had an emergency that requited an overnight 'wait' in the ER myself--the hospital bill was just over $800--that is for one night folks. For the same level of care, I paid an adverage of $220 a DAY(&night). My Mom was in the hospital 3 nights for a broken hip recently; it cost $33,000 without the cost of the operation.
Was it worth it? You bet! It was a bargan.
Try giving your dog probiotic pills you get in the health food department. I have a cat that does the same thing for no reason. Gets very expensive fast. When we go on vacation, she's always sick with what was described in your article. Now I just keep her on probiotic capsules (vegetarian ones). I sprinkle one capsule on her food each day, even when we're on vacation (my mother does this for her) and so far the last two times we've came back, she hasn't been sick.
Animals must go through stress like some of us humans. Good luck.
Edit: Just wanted to let you know that it was our Vet, that told me to try this :)

I'm talking about Tracy's ties, through the Sister City Association, with Memuro, Japan. Relations between the two towns have been ongoing since 1989, and while the annual exchanges of middle-school students are a major part of the total program, we adults have been able to take part, too.
A case in point: At Saturday night's anniversary dinner in Tracy Community Center, a delegation of several dozen people from Memuro — city officials and spouses — were there.
Among the visitors was Takanori Takeda, who is superintendent of the Memuro Board of Education. In Memuro, the city government operates the elementary schools, and secondary schools are part of a countywide system.
Anyway, Tak is an old friend. Back in 2002, he was an assistant administrator in city government and one of the chaperones for Memuro middle school students visiting Tracy.
Tak, as he asked to be called, stayed with our family for a week, and we shared meals with him — "American food," such as spaghetti and pizza was popular — and we went together on field trips throughout Northern California.
Among Tak's official duties was taking the students to Tracy City Hall to meet Mayor Dan Bilbrey and to visit schools and businesses in the Tracy area.
A year later, we went on a vacation trip to Japan at the same time 10 middle school students from Tracy were visiting Memuro. They invited us to join them for three days while the students were in the farming community on Japan's northern island of Hokkaido.
While staying at the city-owned ski resort south of town (it was May, so no snow), we went with the students to a middle school, city hall, an artistic glass studio, the town library and a farm. Josh Ullery, a Tracy High graduate who was one of a series of young people from Tracy teaching English in Memuro, was one of our guides.
One evening, Memuro Mayor Tokayama treated the Tracy group to a sushi dinner at a local restaurant. I'm not a big sushi fan, but I gave it my best effort, and I turned out liking the offerings better than I had expected.
A memory of our trip to Memuro was handed to me Saturday night by Cyndi Sandford, one of the Tracy chaperones of our days in Memuro. It was a photo of Joan and me standing with Cyndi and her fellow chaperone Barbara Farley at the middle school.
Accompanying the Memuro delegation to Tracy on Saturday night was Masato Watanabe, the consul general of Japan in San Francisco. He said he had been in San Francisco for only a couple of months, and taking part in the Sister City Anniversary dinner was one of his best experiences so far.
Tracy students who went to Memuro over the years have echoed the same sentiments. I remember one former student telling me that the hospitality of the host families in Memuro "made it so successful."
After a quarter century, successful is indeed the word for the Sister City program.

Cleveland Bay Stallion imported in the late 1800s to North America
The Cleveland Bay Horse Society of North America was founded in 1885 and by 1907 had registered 2000 stallions and mares. Imported as superb coach horses, interest in the breed waned as the world became more mechanized but was briefly revived in the 1930's when Alexander Mackay-Smith imported founding stock for hunters. There are currently approximately 135 purebred Cleveland Bays in the United States and Canada, with many Cleveland sport horses competing in all disciplines of horsemanship. The purebred and part bred registry is administered and maintained by the Cleveland Bay Horse Society. Cleveland Bay horses (pure bred and sport horse) sired by a pure bred Cleveland Bay stallion that has been awarded a Stallion License to breed pure and part bred Cleveland Bays can be registered with the Cleveland Bay Horse Society and included in the society's stud book. Inspection and approval of stallions by the Cleveland Bay Horse Society of North America is done as needed.

It's for when we baby sit him, and his three sisters(hopefully his aim is better than ours). Other than that, everything is great. Thanks

Lance Easley, the replacement referee who made the controversial touchdown call that allowed the Seattle Seahawks to defeat the Green Bay Packers on Monday Night Football in September, said he received dozens of death threats afterward. It's turned him off of officiating.
Easley told the Washington Post that an NFL security official warned Easley and his wife that he should prepare for the threats after the Packers lost to the Seahawks 14-12 on the Hail Mary touchdown on the game's final play. There is still debate over whether Seattle's Golden Tate caught a touchdown or if Green Bay's M.D. Jennings intercepted the ball in the end zone.
A security guard was hired to watch over Easley for a month at his regular job as a bank vice-president. Easley said one voice mail came from a man who said he hoped Easley's family would die.
Easley said that he chose to not officiate basketball games this fall and doesn't know if he'll return to that sport.

The Yamaha YZF-R7 was a limited edition machine top dollar machine only sold to the public so Yamaha could race it in World Superbike. Just 500 were sold for road use (40 in the UK) and they were about £22,000. Also known as the OW02, the Yamaha YZF-R7's race success was limited partly due to the rules favoring twin cylinder ...

The 2004 and 2005 Suzuki GSX-R750s are almost perfect. The new radial brakes solved the slight stopping issues of the last incarnation, the styling's on the money and the motor and chassis are better than most of us can ever hope to fully exploit.

Triumph wowed us all when they beat all the Japanese manufacturers to putting a fuel injected engine in to a 600cc sportsbike. Shame about the glitches. Later Triumph TT600s are better but the handling and brakes have never been in doubt: they're awe-inspiring. Dodgy looks but a true Brit.
599cc, 110bhp, 160mph, Insurance group 15
The Triumph Daytona 600/650 is lighter, smoother, faster and infinitely prettier than the TT600. What's more, Bruce Anstey won the Junior TT on one in 2003 which goes to show what improvements Triumph made to their 600cc sports middleweight contender. The Triumph Daytona 600/650 is a beauty: an involved ride with excellent handling, amazing brakes and it's good value.

Golfers anticipate May 28 opening
by John Fritz, SWXRightNow.com
LIBERTY LAKE, Wash. - It sweeps down the fairways, finds its way through the fescue and leaves the flags all aflutter. And now, the breeze so prevalent, is relevant once again at Liberty Lake. After almost two years of reconstruction the closed sign is just a few chores short of coming down.
"I've been in the business a long time, but it's been 19 months since we had a customer," said Liberty Lake head pro Kit DeAndre. "Finally comes the realization, getting ready to go. Gotta have the i's and t's crossed."
DeAndre, an enthusiastic tour guide, can't wait to present the county's pristine new tract. The course underwent a $6 million facelift, one in which wrinkles are welcome and flat is a forgotten concept.
Course: 18-hole championship public courseLength: 6,607 yardsPar: 70Regular Adult Rates: $26-$28Notes: Four new lakes, substantial grade changes, larger greens, new bunkers, remodeled clubhouse
Website: Liberty Lake Golf Course
"Liberty Lake was always considered flat and boring," he explains. "It won't be boring anymore."
The renovated course has four ponds that feed the course's state-of-the-art irrigation. The largest pond is framed by holes 6, 7 and 8. Another one makes the old third hole a distant memory. And the new 18th hole has a new look, too. The number of bunkers nearly doubled, along with the green size.
Watching DeAndre put around the new course makes it look easy, but the course still has teeth. How much to chew, though, is really up to the golfer. Now there are four choices at the tee, and that can change things dramatically.
"As the golf pro, I'm biased," explains DeAndre. "But I'm sure the public's gonna want to play it more than once."
From sight lines to a spiffy new logo, after a 20-month transformation the new Liberty Lake is back in play.

The Truth For True Religion
Marshall is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Back to True Religion, there has also speculation that the company could be a takeover target. It has been reported that the likes of WWD and Sycamore Partners could be interested in purchasing the company. In late 2012, Nike sold off its Cole Haan unit to private equity firm Apax Partners for $570 million. From a valuation perspective, True Religion is indeed cheap, trading the lowest on both a price to earnings (next year earnings) and price to operating cash flow basis:

Canadian Oil Bonanza
Mark is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM), the number one ranked company on the Fortune 500 list, made a big announcement last week. It plans to spend upwards of $14 billion to extract oil in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of the Canadian province of Newfoundland.
The Hebron field, first discovered in 1980, contains an estimated 660 million to 1 billion barrels of recoverable crude. ExxonMobil, which has 36% of the equity in the project, and its partners, plan to pump 150,000 bpd from Hebron beginning in 2017.
The announcement adds to other reports which indicate that the boom in the North American energy industry will continue. Recently it was projected that the United States will become the world's number one oil producer by 2020, surpassing Saudi Arabia. Within two years the U.S. will also become the largest natural gas producer in the world.
These developments will not necessarily result in lower prices at the pump, but do have the potential to contribute to improved overall economic growth and corporate profits in this part of the world, including at the companies involved in the Hebron project.
The other major partners include Chevron (NYSE: CVX) (26.7% equity), Suncor Energy (NYSE: SU) (22.7%) and the Canadian subsidiary of the Norwegian company Statoil (ADR) (NYSE: STO) (9.7%).
Although I tend to focus more on the long term, recent earnings reports showed a short term slowdown at some of the companies involved in the new Canadian project.
Chevron's latest quarterly report indicated a 30% decline in EPS (10% on a TTM basis). Company earnings are projected to decline again this year. However, the company does have a few things going for it: a low debt level, a competitive P/E (below its peers and the overall market) and a chunky divided yield of 3.28%.
Suncor has had mixed results lately. While revenue growth has been strong over the past half decade earnings have been relatively flat, in spite of a 20% rise last year. Growth is expected to slow down again next year, mirroring the overall market. The company does have low debt levels and pays a $0.52 per share dividend.
Statoil has been performing well of late. Earnings and revenue growth have been robust. And it could be considered a value-orientated stock -- its P/E is around 6. Other strong points are a relatively low amount of long term debt and higher margins than some of its peers. For example, ExxonMobil and Chevron have gross margins 5 and 12 points less than the 40% of Statoil. Of all the partners in Hebron, Statoil may have the strongest case for an investment.
ExxonMobil's earnings, although beating consensus late last year, are expected to be flat this year. Like Statoil and Chevron it has a low P/E multiple. It generates plenty of cash and has a very small amount of debt. The company pays a $2.28 per share dividend and has a history of increasing it every year. It could be considered for both an income and a value-oriented portfolio.
So it looks like the North American oil industry is poised for more growth. Several exploration and production companies will start reaping some rewards in a few years. I'd bet we'll see more of this in the near future.

Target's Black Friday ad is out
Like its rivals' holiday sales, Black Friday at Target actually begins on Thanksgiving night.
This post comes from Melinda Fulmer of MSN Money.
Target's Black Friday ad hit deal sites Friday morning, offering a few Thanksgiving Day bargains that could have some people rushing through dinner.
Target's sale will start at 9 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 22 -- around the same time as sales by rivals Wal-Mart, Kmart and Sears. The sale runs a full 26 hours, ending at 11 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 23.
In a clever move, Target scattered its best door-buster deals across every one of its ad's 32 pages, forcing bargain hunters to peruse the entire thing rather than looking through the first and last pages.
Some of the hotter deals Target is offering in the ad include:
- Nikon Coolpix L310 14.1-MP digital camera with 21x optical zoom -- $99.99 (regularly $199.99).
- Westinghouse 50-inch 1080p LCD HDTV -- $349 (regularly $599).
- Disney Princess Ultimate Fairy Tale Kitchen for $49.99 (regularly $99.99).
- $4, $6 and $10 DVDs.
- Sony PlayStation 3 250-GB Uncharted/Infamous Bundle for $199.99 (selling elsewhere for $269).
- Microsoft Xbox 360 4-GB Disney Kinect Bundle for $199.99 (selling elsewhere for $250).
- Gateway 15.6-inch laptop with AMD Quad Core, 4-GB DDR3, 500-GB HDD -- $349 (regularly $599).
- Apex 32-inch LCD HDTV for $147 (regularly $249).
- 6-foot pre-lit Fraser Fir Tree with clear lights for $30 (regularly $65).

I work for an airline. I would happily give my shift to someone who wants the holiday pay, and there are many, but we aren't allowed to trade shifts on a holiday. So, I suck it up and go to work because I knew that was the deal when I hired on. In nearly 30 years, I've worked most holidays. I love the job, so I take the bad with the good. My kids have never known anything different, so they don't give it a second thought. My husband grumbles once in a while, but he likes the perks that go along with my job. (He flies free.)
One time I nearly burst out laughing when a little, old lady checked in for a flight one Christmas morning. I wished her "Merry Christmas" and she said, "You mean they make you work on Christmas?". I replied, "If I didn't, how would you get to Lincoln today?" She thought about it for a second and said, "I never thought of it that way,"
As for the response posted by "Not The Winner" - I totally agree. My boyfriend works at WalMart, he is a college student, and his availability is to have Thursdays and Fridays off each week, and has been for months. They are not respecting this for the holiday. He is scheduled to work from 7:30pm-12:30am on Thanksgiving. Disgusting, huh?
He can't call in, they will fire him.
This country is Corporate America now. It is all about profit, not the people. Although the people, as blind consumers, embrace this title. Really, the only way we can change things is if people stop being a**holes - which will probably never happen. ;)
In 2008 an employee of WalMart was trampled to death because of Black Friday madness. Happy f***ing Thanksgiving, America.
Hmm, I just picked up an xbox 360 250 gig holiday bundle with skyrim, and a racing game for 249.00-30.00 extra savings cert, and a 20.00 gift card at Fred Meyers Friday and Saturday sell this morning. I think the stores are going to run specials before Turkey day.
That put the xbox down to $219.00 before tax, and then with the 20 buck gift card can be a great stocking stuffer. My Christmas shopping is done now! Have a safe shopping season everyone!
Oh and this took my 13yr old 2 years to save money form odd summer jobs, grades etc. She had to have enough money to buy the xbox, and have the same amount in the bank to save. I think she did a good job to save 500.00 on her own.

|When it comes to starters and punchout rates, the Indians -- in Corey Kluber -- have a pretty good alpha dog, and with a week to go in the 2014 season, are just 37 strikeouts from tying a record set last year by the Tigers, who amassed 1,428 K's.
More» Kluber strikes out 14 in stellar outing
|Mariners ace Felix Hernandez tossed seven shutout innings vs. the Angels on Thursday but came away with a no-decision. It marked the eight time since 2005 he'd gone at least seven scoreless without a decision.
More» Felix fans 11 in milestone start
|Facing the Reds on Tuesday, right-hander Jake Arrieta lost his no-hit bid with one out in the eighth inning and had to settle for a one-hit shutout with 13 K's and one walk. The dominating effort -- which produced a game score of 97 -- was the highlight of the Cubs' 7-0 victory.
More» Arrieta fans 13 in one-hit shutout of Reds
|With less than a month remaining in his seventh big league season, Clayton Kershaw carries a career 2.48 ERA. This mark -- built over 1,365 1/3 innings -- is the second lowest in the liveball era for all pitchers with at least 1,000 innings through their first seven years. It rests just ahead of Whitey Ford's 2.60 and just behind Tom Seaver's 2.38, and has more than a little something to do with how Kershaw has fared when facing the San Francisco Giants.
More» Kershaw fans nine over eight to stump Giants
|White Sox southpaw Chris Sale demonstrated the full range of his dominance Thursday with eight innings, two hits, no runs and nine strikeouts. With the effort, Sale improved to 12-3, lowered his ERA to 1.99 and polished some other pretty historic numbers.
More» Sale fans nine in dominant outing vs. A's

More» J.D. Martinez launches a solo home run
|O's slugger Nelson Cruz enjoyed a seven-RBI day on Sunday, the third time he achieved that feat. Yet he's still only has a third of the seven-RBI games that Lou Gehrig recorded during his Hall of Fame career.
More» Cruz powers O's to victory with seven RBIs
|Since 1960, there have only been 17 players who have posted an OPS+ of at least 160 and a strikeout rate below eight percent. The Tigers' Victor Martinez could be No. 18 this year -- and the first switch-hitter.

|In the sixth inning at Dodger Stadium on Tuesday, Clayton Kershaw made Jayson Werth his 200th strikeout victim of the year, becoming the fourth pitcher since 1893 to have at least five straight 200-strikeout seasons through an age-26 season.

Excerpt from About.com
It's finally time! You're a senior and can't wait to graduate and move on to graduate school. But first you need to deal with those pesky graduate school applications. Senior year is graduate admissions time. Here's how to go about it and what to do when to get into the graduate school of your dreams:
- If you haven't done so already, take the necessary standardized tests for admissions. You will either take the GRE, MCAT, GMAT, LSAT, or DAT, depending on what your program requires.
- Gather graduate program brochures (which you've collected over junior year and the summer or are working feverishly now to obtain) and narrow your choices.
- Consider which faculty members to ask for letters of recommendation.
- Research sources of financial aid.
- Carefully examine each of the program applications. Note any questions or essay topics that will require your attention.
- Write a draft of your statement of purpose.
- Ask a faculty member or the career/grad admissions counselor at your school to read your essays and provide feedback. Take their advice!
- Ask faculty for letters of recommendation. Provide faculty with a copy of your transcript, each program's recommendation form, and your statement of purpose. It may also be helpful if you provide the professors with sample recommendation letters. Ask him or her if there's anything else that you can provide to help them.
- Arrange for your official transcript to be sent to each program to which you apply. Request that the Registrar hold your transcript until the Fall semester grades are in.
- Finalize your essays and statement of purpose. Don't forget to seek input from others.
- Apply for fellowships and other sources of financial aid, as applicable.
- Check and record the due date for each application.
- Complete the application forms for each program. Scan the form into your computer or use a typewriter for a neat and clean application form. Reread your essays and statement of purpose. Spell check!
- Mail your applications
- Relax and breathe!
- Most schools send a postcard upon receipt of each application. Keep track of these. If you don't receive a postcard or letter, contact the admissions office by email or phone to ensure that your application has been received before the deadline.
- Depending on your field, start planning for the admissions interviews. What questions will you ask? Prepare answers to common questions.
- Fill out the Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) application. You'll need your tax forms to do this.
- Visit schools to which you've been accepted.
- Discuss acceptances and rejections with a faculty member or the career/graduate admissions counselor at your school.
- Notify the program of your acceptance.
- Notify programs that you're declining.

UX Passion is a company now!
We are proud and happy to announce publicly that UX Passion is a company now! UX Passion is a full service UX design and usability firm with global reach.
Dear visitor: Please keep in mind that this post is originally from Vibor Cipan's personal blog, the name of which we eventually adopted as our company name together with its conveniently-named URL. We're keeping the posts on our official company blog for all the subscribers to Vibor's blog who have read and commented on his previous posts. Please be aware that this post represents Vibor's personal thinking few years ago and doesn't necessarily represent the opinions of the UX Passion as a company today.
We envision, design and deliver the greatest user and service experiences. With passion! We are packed with passionate individuals and today we are sharing this exciting news with all of you!
On May 19th, as the future CEO, I was happy, proud and excited to share the news that FatDUX Zagreb is leaving FatDUX Group and that three of its founders – Antun Debak, Darko Čengija and I – will form a new company.
Today is the date when, again, I'm really happy and excited to share the news that we've successfully completed the transition and we are now working under the UX Passion brand.
UX Passion is a brand present on the market since August 8th 2008 – it started as a personal blog and over the course of time it has grown to be a significant resource for all things Silverlight, WPF, design and UX in general. With days reaching over 20 000 visitors to the site, we wanted to explore the possibilities ahead of us.
When we left the FatDUX Group we were inspired by Bertrand Russell's quote:
Freedom in general may be defined as the absence of obstacles to the realization of desire.
Well, our desire to grow and develop an honest, genuine, design-driven and open-minded culture filled with tolerance and mutual respect was our main motivation to start something new. Our passion for design, users and innovation simply needed more space and challenges than we were able to have before. We have always been a team of strong individuals with voices that wanted to be heard and listened to. UX Passion is THE right place for us to live, grow and share our common values.
Today, after all the legalities have been solved, we are in our new offices in Zagreb, Croatia, working with clients on all inhabited continents, sharing our passion for great user experiences on all major platforms.
Future of the blog
As a blog, UX Passion.com will be transformed into our company website before the end of summer. We hate long, boring, unnecessarily complicated procedures that have been put in place just to have self-serving self-importance. That's the reason why we wanted to share with you our plans as early as possible. Our new website will keep this blog as its integral part but it will also provide you with information about our services (user experience, information architecture, usability, content strategy, software development and consulting), products, our work – and we will also build a place for experiments, research and a testing ground to showcase new ideas, approaches and technologies.
For you, our current readers, that means that means this blog will be more often updated, you'll get a bunch of new articles and resources to help you learn about and share knowledge related to all things user experience. We are working on a sandbox – a lab part of the company where we will showcase new technologies, ideas and approaches – and share our experiences with you. All in all – great times ahead – we are confident that by taking this brand we will empower you even more so and that you, our readers and friends, will benefit greatly from this transformation.
Future of the company
As a company, our business and design philosophy will stay the same – powerful simplicity. The only difference is that now we can share it and live this philosophy without any artificial, enforced limitations.
All our existing clients have been informed about this change. In general, we are changing the name and brand and, as I've said, for the first time we have the freedom to fully exercise our values, business and design philosophy. It is difficult to describe how excited we all are about this change.
One thing that I must say at this point is that I feel so humbled by all the support we've received from UX colleagues, clients, partners and friends. It is something that has given us enormous strength in the days that have followed our split from the "collective". All of us here at UX Passion have been deeply moved and humbled by that. Thank you for that!
Let's connect!
Here's some practical info how to connect to us and stay in touch:
UX Passion is now on Twitter. You should definitely follow us there (@UXPassion). Also, be sure to check us on Facebook page and like us there :)
You can reach the UX Passion leadership team by sending an email to:
- Vibor Cipan (CEO) – vibor AT uxpassion DOT com
- Antun Debak (Creative Director) – antun AT uxpassion DOT com
- Darko Čengija (Information Architect) – darko AT uxpassion DOT com
And, yes, we are all on Twitter as well so – go ahead and follow us: @adebak, @darkoche and @viborc
Connect with us, stay tuned and we will share all our day-to-day news and events with you regarding the new website and this transformation.

Fiat 's little 500 hatchback is gaining quite a reputation as a special-edition friendly model. We've already seen a number of them in the past, but it seems that Fiat isn't done with releasing special edition models.
The latest to come out of the Fiat woodwork is the 500 Bicolore Edition, which the Italian automaker revealed at the Bologna Motor Show . So what sets this particular 500 apart from other models?
Well, taking from its name 'bicolore', Fiat dressed up the car in a two-tone paint finish comprising of white on top and red on the bottom, separated by a line where the bonnet meets the body. Similarly, Fiat used the same treatment on the inside of the passenger compartment, which should add more life to the car's interior.
Apart from that, Fiat left everything the way it was, which really isn't so much as a bad thing because added features mean increased cost.
In the end, we liked the way Fiat treated the Bicolore Edition 500 - classy without going too overboard.
Details after the jump.
Interior and Exterior
Apart from the 'Bicolore' combination Fiat used to dress up this special edition Fiat 500 – white on top and red on the bottom, separated where the bonnet meets the body - the car doesn't come with a lot of added features apart from what's already in it. The car comes with short overhangs, a shell-like rood, and a bodyside made of several superimposed layers. The Bicolore 500 also has those circular projector bi-halogen headlamps with matching lower fog lamps. As for the interior, Fiat also decked it out with the same bicolore treatment as it did with the exterior.
The 500 Bicolore Edition will come with the same powertrain as all other 500s have: a 1.4-liter engine with MultiAir technology, a system that not only reduces the car's fuel emissions, but also improves fuel economy and ramps up the power by 10 percent compared to past models of the car. The powertrain translates to an output of 100 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 131 Nm at 4,250 rpm.
Fiat didn't specifically mention a price tag for the 500 Bicolore Edition, but we're pretty confident that it wouldn't be too far from the $15,500 price tag attached to the base model. Speaking of base model, the Bicolore Edition will be available on all versions of the 500 with a specified combination available for the Pop, Smart, and Lounge variants. Fiat has also announced that the car will become available in Italy at the start of 2011.
Compact and fuel efficient city cars are becoming the rage these days with the Fiat 500 firmly entrenched in the conversation along with the MINI Cooper and Smart ForTwo . In terms of pricing competition, the Smart For Two is the most affordable of the bunch with a price tag of $11,900 with the 500 following suit with the aforementioned $15,500 price. Considered the top-end of small cars, the MINI Cooper comes in with a price of $20,100.

A Washington DC couple has just raised the bar on awesome proposals this past weekend when Corey Newman proposed to his girlfriend Marlowe Epstein via crossword puzzle in last Sunday's Washington Post. She said yes because, after all, how could she not? It is the sweetest thing ever.
Newman worked with a crossword writer at the Post to come up with the perfect crossword for Epstein who is an aficionado. Clues led to her hometown, her first name, his first name and more. Then of course, finally, it was: Willyoumarryme? And he dropped to one knee. Can we get a collective awwwwwww....?
Proposal via crossword puzzle is unique and awesome, but it is not the only creative way to propose. Here are another 15 of the top proposals we could find:
What is your favorite?
Image via Youtube
My husband proposed to me on a roller coaster, called "The Hurler"!! Next Saturday will be exactly 16 years since he popped the question. He had the ring in his pocket, wrapped up in a white piece of paper from a hotel notepad. As soon as the ride started, he dug the ring out of his pocket, put it on my finger and said " I thought this might be an appropriate time. Will you marry me?" I was so shocked, that I never did answer him and I don't remember anything about the ride after that. I guess it worked out though, since we've been married for 15 and a half years!!
howard stern is gross
the crossword thing has been done before but years and years ago... and agree that girl should have RUN the other way if he truly 'ordered' her to strip... very sad/sick man.
My friend propsed to his wife on a local tv show. He took her to an aquarium where they were to be extras in the scene. They were placed right up front next to the glass where a scuba diver was demonstrating how they feed the fish. He dug up a sign and held it to the glass next to my friend and his intended...saying "[her name], will you marry me?" Then my friend got down on one knee and produced the ring. His and her entire family were there. It was so sweet and a complete surprise!
I would say yes to anyone who actually got the Old Spice Guy to ask me to marry someone. Mostly because I would do anything the Old Spice Guy told me to do.

Port creates website to help investors find commercial property
Published on Wed, Feb 13, 2013 by

The Port of Bellingham is working to put the city of Blaine on the map – literally.
With help from their new Whatcom Prospector website (whatcomprospector.com), the port's economic development specialists (EDS) are helping businesses from across the country and Canada find their way into the Whatcom County market.
"Most people [who want to buy or relocate] want to get information about an area online before they pick up the phone," said economic development specialist John Michener. "They do a lot of research before they ever make a call."
Because of this, the port has designed their website to be an interactive search system that maps an aggregation of commercial land and buildings for sale or lease throughout the county.
It provides demographic information on the areas and includes heat maps that designate the density of population, consumer expenses and the available labor force. "Commercial listings are automatically uploaded to the website so that realtors don't have to take an extra step," Michener said. "The site is geared toward national site selectors so they can get the most amount of information in the least amount of time."
Listing on the site is not just limited to realtors – anyone who has commercial property for sale or lease can add their information, Michener added. The site also has extensive community profiles to help buyers get a feel for the community they might be moving into.
Whatcom Prospector helps fulfill the port's mandate to foster economic development, transportation and job creation throughout the county, said Dodd Snodgrass, an EDS for the port.
Snodgrass and Michener said that the tool is great for areas like Blaine, because it highlights the benefits potential buyers would receive by choosing to relocate there.
"The port is directly invested in the city of Blaine. We own the marina, we've been involved for a number of years and we meet with city manager Gary Tomsic every month," Snodgrass said. "We devote a lot of time getting to know the business community and making site visits to existing manufacturers to see how we can help. Part of the role John and I play is to act as a clearinghouse and help make contacts. Then we get out of the way and let people do what they do best."
Michener said there has been a quite bit of interest from potential businesses to relocate to Blaine, given its location and the benefits of being part of a foreign trade zone (FTZ). "I think it's only a matter of time before we see a lot more moves there," he said.
And while the port is interested in new business for the community, they are even more concerned about keeping current business owners happy and helping them grow in any way they can, Michener said.
"Supporting who we already have is money much better spent," Snodgrass added. "It's important to take care of the businesses that have already invested in the community."
