By Carolyn O'Neil, for the AJC
It's easy to understand why nutrition advice includes cautionary tales of restaurant menu items that deliver more than a day's calorie limit with overblown portions and whopping amounts of sugar, salt and fat.
But registered dietitian Connie Guttersen doesn't think that means declaring a ban on dining out. "Eating out is part of the daily American lifestyle. Strategies for success are essential to help diners who need to lose [weight] or maintain weight loss and feel good about eating in restaurants."
She says access to the facts helps diners decide what to order. For instance, nutrition information on menu items at P.F. Chang's reveals wide swings in calories. Choose the orange peel beef and you're looking at 1,400 calories on the plate vs. the Cantonese shrimp with only 350 calories per serving.
Guttersen knows a lot about the good, the bad and the shockingly unhealthful choices in restaurants today. As a nutrition instructor at the Culinary Institute of America, she's on the front lines of gathering the food facts on menu items and sharing them with the next generation of chefs.
Nutrition is an important focus in culinary schools today. Chefs gain the food knowledge and cooking techniques needed to prepare more healthful menus that are just as appealing and sell just as well as restaurants' more decadent choices.
Guttersen says plenty of examples illustrate that good nutrition is making its way into food service. Those include trends to offer small plates, seasonal produce and flavors added to recipes with spices, herbs, fruit salsas and vinegars instead of butter, cream and cheese.
So, what's her best advice for diners to navigate a menu in search of a meal that will support a healthful lifestyle?
"Try not to micromanage by fretting about the exact calorie count of a dish," she says. "Instead, be mindful and visualize a healthy plate with at least 75 percent plant-based foods. Eating mostly vegetables, fruit and grains should become second nature. It's what we call the 'plate flip.' Meat shouldn't be the star of the plate."

Connie, it is getting easier all the time to watch what you eat. We at Edgemaster Mobile Sharpening eat out a lot because we sharpen knives for so many restaurants, we can see what happens in the kitchen and get to know the chefs/cooks very well. Have you ever written anything about knife sharpening in restaurants? Would like to hear from you or anyone who can help us reach more kitchens in the U.S. Thanks, Jon at Edgemaster Mobile Sharpening.

The Huge Breasted Lady In Room 38J
May 2nd, 2013
When Danica Danali shows Largo how spectacular she looks wearing her new corset, he immediately bolts out of bed to play with her famous 38J super-knockers. This corset has a convenient zipper that allows fast access. He buries his face in her mountains, licking and sucking her warm, very heavy breastflesh. Danica wraps her palm around his shaft and begins stroking him and tapping the head of his cock against her engorged nipples. She buries his wood inside her cleavage and it simply disappears. Even big dicks are engulfed between her breasts. Danica gets on her back for a tit-fucking and holds her boobs together to make a breast-pussy for his boner. She squeezes her perky nipples as Largo plows through her voluptuous valley. Hooters like this demand to be fucked before it's time for pussy sex. This is Danica's 5th video at XLGirls.com since her debut in February, '11. Why not show your appreciation and comment below?

FORT PIERCE - A grassroots movement to eliminate the Fort Pierce Utilities Authority Board took its first steps when 2,256 individual petitions from city residents were submitted to the city of Fort Pierce and transferred to the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections office at the end of July.
Now the process to verify all the signatures begins. The results, expected by the end of August, will determine if the issue will be placed before city residents as a referendum on an upcoming ballot.
On July 31, Cassandra Steele, the city clerk for Fort Pierce submitted 1,164 petitions entitled, "Petition to Amend the FPUA Charter, Article XII, Sec. 169 of the City of Fort Pierce, Florida." These signatures join the 1,092 petition that were submitted two years prior, in August 2010.
Both sets of petitions were submitted to the city clerk by Fort Pierce resident Christopher Williams, who recently was one of the candidates for the Fort Pierce Mayor's race. He is the president of the group Concerned Citizens United.
The petition is looking for support to eliminate the authority board that governs the Fort Pierce Utilities, and replace it with the city commission of Fort Pierce.
According to the petition, this act "would give the city commission exclusive jurisdiction, control and management of the utilities of the city and all of its operations and facilities that would bring the utilities and the city together as one unit of the city government."
The utility is a community-owned, electric utility that currently operates with a separate board from the city. It provides water, wastewater, natural gas and Internet services. It was voted by referendum in 1972 by the city's residents to create the authority.
While the authority currently is operated by it own board, the city commission is responsible for approving its rates and budget every year. A percent of the revenue generated by the authority goes back into the city's general fund.
But high utility bills for some of the city residents prompted Mr. Williams and his organization to place the utilities' power back into city hands.
"It hasn't been official yet," Mr. Williams said when he addressed the Fort Pierce City Commission on Aug. 20. "We're just waiting on (the supervisor of elections office) to come up with the actual number."
Based on the number of registered voters in the last general election in 2009 - 20,467 - the total number of signatures required to place an issue on a ballot are 2,047.
According to Gertrude Walker, the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections, their will be no cost for verifying the signatures, because Mr. Williams submitted an "undue burden" affidavit. Normally, the cost to the person submitting the petition is 10 cents per signature, so it would have cost $225.60.
As of Aug. 22, her office had not yet begun the verifying process.
"The petitions were submitted during an election cycle," Ms. Walker said. "My office will have the petitions verified within 30 days."
The election staff will call up each individual name on their computer system and check a number of things. The person signing the petition must by a resident of Fort Pierce, and must have been a registered voter on the date they signed the petition. The office staff also has to compare the signature on the petition to the one they have on file for that person.
"We have to be confident that it is the signature of the voter who signed the petition," she said.
She indicated her office is not responsible for placing the proposed amendment on the ballot. All her staff does is verify the signatures. The results from the verification process will be given to the city of Fort Pierce.

Very clever and funny too.I have been to all thoses places barely surviving.In this world to keep your sanity you needa sense of humor.
the funny part was in Deer Trail - the gas station had no door - and when I asked what they do when they close if they have no door - the lady just laughed and said who would crazy enough to be out after dark - hahahaha - big city girl vs small town girl hahahaha

The following is a guest post by Kerry Sulkowicz, a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who is the managing principal of Boswell Group LLC. He advises CEOs, investors and politicians on the dynamics of leadership, corporate culture and governance. The opinions expressed are his own.
About the only thing that's clear in the story of Mark Hurd's downfall last week as CEO of HP is how much we don't know. Statements issued by HP, by Hurd, and by Hurd's accuser reveal remarkably little about what was unquestionably a bad week for everyone involved.
Yet there are some meaningful clues if we read between the lines.
Mark Hurd
A highly successful CEO who took the helm at HP following the disastrous rein of Carly Fiorina, Hurd was well on his way to establishing himself as one of America's best and brightest business leaders. Given his accomplishments at HP over the course of his tenure, I still think he may qualify. Notwithstanding the denials of a sexual relationship between Hurd and Jodie Fisher, the consultant and occasional actress who accompanied Hurd on "high-level customer and executive summit events," we don't know much about what actually happened between them.
Why would Hurd, a married man in a high profile job, whose every move was scrutinized under the electron microscope that comes with CEO territory, risk his reputation, not to mention his career, by spending so much time with Fisher? We'll probably never know the entire story. But as an advisor to CEOs around the world, I see that the one thing they all grapple with is the isolation and loneliness that are inherent in the role. Because of the nature of power dynamics in all organizations, CEOs often have no one in whom they can confide inside their companies, and they naturally need – and seek – confidants on the outside.
Most of these relationships are healthy, adaptable and, in my view, necessary for CEOs to deal with the stresses of the job. But the boundaries of these relationships can occasionally get murky, especially with a CEO whose intimate personal relationships aren't providing the kind of emotional sustenance they need, or who are drawn to the excitement of being with someone who might fill a certain void, either in the imagination or in reality.

The Single Life: Showing Souper Hospitality
- Thursday, October 15, 2009
I don't know about you, but I love having people over to my place for dinner.
For one thing, having company on a regular basis is the best way I know to make sure my home stays really clean. (Sadly, I must confess that my standards have a tendency to slip when the cats and I are the only ones with a view of the mess.) Beyond that, there's a sense of satisfaction in bringing people together for good food and conversation. But there's another reason to host social gatherings ...
We have a biblical mandate to show hospitality. Paul tells us straight up in Romans 12:13, "Practice hospitality." Peter expands on that idea in 1 Peter 4:9, "Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling." Without grumbling, eh? I'm thinking there's a story behind that one. Peter seems to have been prone to inviting people over without much forethought—remember when he brought Jesus and the boys home for dinner the day his mother-in-law was sick in bed? I can imagine Mrs. Peter had a few choice words to say about that! However, since Jesus promptly healed her mom (clearly HE understood the stress Mrs. P was under, even if her husband was clueless), it all worked out in the end. But it does make me wonder if the "without grumbling" part was directed to anyone in particular.
Should you host a dinner party? Why not? It's good practice for your social skills. It's a great way to get on the invite list for other people's parties. If you're like me, it will prompt you to clean house just a little more carefully than usual. It's also a good way to introduce separate sets of friends to each other, celebrate a milestone, or get to know people better.
Beyond that, having people over is a way to show the people who matter to you that they matter to you. It's a tangible form of appreciation. Yes, it's more trouble than eating takeout alone in front of the TV or meeting your friends at the local coffee shop. That's the point. Going out of your way for someone shows you care. It says, "You are worth the trouble." Who among us—especially those of us who are single—doesn't long to be worthy of at least a little extra effort on someone's part? (And how many of us secretly believe we're not?)
If you're a naturally gregarious sort, you don't really need encouragement to throw a little party. But if you have a more retiring nature, or you just don't know where to begin, don't worry. I'm here to help—and despite that earlier talk about "trouble" and "effort" it can be a whole lot easier than you think.
You can plan a party around any excuse or no excuse at all. I once threw a "Poverty Party" for those of us who couldn't afford our church's singles' retreat. The rule was you had to wear old clothes and bring food you had already paid for, which made for quite the eclectic menu. For years I held an annual birthday party for Sherlock Holmes. (He never showed, but he was in his 150's and it's a long flight from London to Texas.) Choose a random holiday like World Food Day (October 16) or National Chocolates Day (October 28) or celebrate that the sun rose that morning. You don't even need a reason—just do it!
Here's an easy, budget-friendly party idea: host a soup supper. It is officially fall now, so soup is in season. It's a relatively inexpensive entrée, doesn't require fancy presentation, and leftovers freeze beautifully for lunches later. Besides, it's fairly difficult to really mess up soup, so even if your culinary skills are not of Iron Chef caliber you can pull this off. I've included a couple of favorite recipes at the end of this article to get you started. On the other hand, if you want to pick up soup from the grocery store (many carry excellent varieties in the deli section) there is no shame in that. Hospitality has much more to do with attitude than it does with food.

Rated 3 out of 5�by 1 reviewer.
Rated 3 out of 5�by Druseph Not too shabby Definitely a nice knife considering the low price. Held up through chopping kindling and some light bushcraft over a two day camping trip. Edge retention was good, though it did start to rust just a little bit after two days in the humid WV backwoods. But like I said. Not a bad buy for as affordable as it is. July 19, 2013

A 21-year-old Montgomery Village man was killed just after midnight Sunday when he drove his car into an oncoming sport utility vehicle in Gaithersburg, police said.
Luis Kenyo Chambergo-Chanco was driving his 2001 Honda Civic south on Snouffer School Road near Centerway Road just before 12:10 a.m. when he crossed into the northbound lanes, according to Montgomery County Police.
The Civic slammed into an oncoming 2009 Nissan Rogue. Chambergo-Chanco died of his injuries. The two people in the SUV, both Gaithersburg residents, were taken local hospitals with what authorities described as injuries that were not life threatening.
Police are still investigating why Chambergo-Chanco crossed into the opposite lane.

Beauty And The Bag
Observant members of the audience at Viktor & Rolf's show this weekend likely noticed something recognizable dangling from a few models' wrists. There, among the tightly edited collection of black and white pieces, were black and white accessories in a strikingly familiar shape. Were those Flowerbomb bottles in minaudière form, the astute guest may have asked? And the answer, it appears, is yes. The house used its Fall presentation to introduce the Flowerbombette, a clutch that takes its faceted form from the grenade shape of V&R's best-selling perfume bottle. It's available in lacquered ebony and glossy ivory, so now you can wear the sambac jasmine, centifolia rose, and patchouli eau—and accessorize with it, too.

The information content of high-frequency data for estimating equity return models and forecasting risk
AbstractWe demonstrate that the parameters controlling skewness and kurtosis in popular equity return models estimated at daily frequency can be obtained almost as precisely as if volatility is observable by simply incorporating the strong information content of realized volatility measures extracted from high-frequency data. For this purpose, we introduce asymptotically exact volatility measurement equations in state space form and propose a Bayesian estimation approach. Our highly efficient estimates lead in turn to substantial gains for forecasting various risk measures at horizons ranging from a few days to a few months ahead when taking also into account parameter uncertainty. As a practical rule of thumb, we find that two years of high frequency data often suffice to obtain the same level of precision as twenty years of daily data, thereby making our approach particularly useful in finance applications where only short data samples are available or economically meaningful to use. Moreover, we find that compared to model inference without high-frequency data, our approach largely eliminates underestimation of risk during bad times or overestimation of risk during good times. We assess the attainable improvements in VaR forecast accuracy on simulated data and provide an empirical illustration on stock returns during the financial crisis of 2007-2008.

Gwon Osang makes extraordinary life-size sculptures of people. He uses hundreds of photographic images to build up the surface appearance of his models, including the face, their hair and their clothes. The process gives his beautifully crafted figures both photo-realist and surreal qualities.
Following a recent Manchester residency, Gwon is now creating a new work specially commissioned for ATM08. His Manchester-inspired sculpture is of the musician Graham Massey - best known as a member of Manchester's electronic pioneers 808 State. This new work is being displayed from 5 April together with another of Gwon's existing works Control.
From 21 June – 21 September, Manchester Art Gallery also presents Gwon's first major UK solo exhibition. This exhibition provides the chance to see further new sculptures by Gwon.
Gwon Osang, Control, detail
Choe U-ram combines the latest precision engineering technologies with art to create robotic sculptures with echoes of organic forms. He uses cut and polished metals, machinery and electronics to create kinetic sculptures inspired by sea creatures and plant life. In a UK first for the artist, Choe U-ram is exhibiting two enormous robotic works, Urbanus Female and Urbanus Male, in the gallery's atrium.
Visit our flickr pages to see photographs of Gwon Osang photographing his models and Choe U-Ram's preparatory drawings for Urbanus Female and Urbanus Male.
Asia Triennial Manchester 08 is a festival of visual culture and the UK's first Asian art triennial. Five venues across the city are showcasing fresh and innovative work that represents the best of contemporary visual art from across Asia.
The festival is conceived by Shisha, the UK's premier international agency for contemporary South Asian crafts and visual arts, in partnership with Castlefield Gallery, Chinese Arts Centre, Cornerhouse, The International 3, Manchester Art Gallery and Manchester Metropolitan University (through MIRIAD and the Faculty of Art & Design).

In fact, that's been my experience. Whether I run into them because they are destined to advance the plot, or that's the way the plot turns because of whom I ran into, the catalyzing quality of many people on a tiny island never fails to be entertaining.

The Cubs, In Couplets (Game Recap: Chicago Cubs 9, New York Mets 3)
Carlos Zambrano is in the Cubs' bullpen, with a 7.45 ERA and a 1-2 record. Carlos Silva is in the rotation, with a 0.95 ERA and a 2-0 record.
Alfonso Soriano is hitting .327, with a .978 OPS, and has struck out ten times. Aramis Ramirez is hitting .131 with a .506 OPS and has struck out 21 times.
Ryan Theriot's on-base percentage is below .300. Geovany Soto's on-base percentage is above .500.
Tyler Colvin is hitting .261. And he is awesome and I love him.
This poetry session is over.
Kudos to Carlos Silva, the winning pitcher from tonight's game who went six strong innings and allowed just two hits. This man is pitching completely out of his mind. It might be because he's throwing a much smaller percentage of fastballs than he usually does (just over 50% so far this year, as opposed to between 70 and 80 percent in all other years of his career). He's never thrown his slider nearly as much as he is so far this year (18% of the time by Fangraphs' latest numbers).
Kudos to Alfonso Soriano. He was inches away from hitting for the cycle tonight, going 3-for-5 with a walk, a single, a triple, and a long shot to left that just got over the wall to plate two runs. Should he be hitting fifth?
For that matter, should Mr. Two-Hits-Three-Walks-No-Outs Geovany Soto and his over-.500 OBP be hitting higher in the order as well? Actually, I'll answer this one for you: Probably not. He's the catcher, so there's no use wearing him out. And for all the walks he draws, he also strikes out a lot. The seventh spot is probably the perfect place for him (much better than eighth; his slugging percentage will suck from that spot).
Ryan Theriot, Marlon Byrd and Tyler Colvin had multi-hit outings themselves, going 3-for-5, 2-for-4, and 2-for-5 respectively.
Also, Aramis Ramirez went 0-for-6 with two strikeouts.
In the end, though, this game was won by super performances from Carlos Silva and Alfonso Soriano. Whodathunkit??? Go Cubbos!
"For that matter, should Mr.
"For that matter, should Mr. Two-Hits-Three-Walks-No-Outs Geovany Soto"
Not a big deal, but he did create an out trying to stretch one of those singles into a double. It was the one where he was getting tagged at second before Soriano somehow even crossed home after casually walking all the way from Third. (one of the weirdest things I have seen in a long time, what the heck was Sori thinking?)
You are correct, sir. Geo
You are correct, sir. Geo Soto ain't fast.

TUESDAY, Feb. 1 (HealthDay News) -- Even as overall cancer death
rates continue a downward trend among black Americans, the
community still bears the biggest brunt of cancer-related deaths in
the United States, a new report shows.
The American Cancer Society report released Tuesday noted that
as recently as 2007, cancer fatalities among black men remained 32
percent higher than that of white men, while the cancer death rate
among black women hovered at 16 percent above that of white
The findings also showed that, for most cancers, blacks face the
shortest cancer survival prognosis compared with all other races
and ethnicities.
Breast and colorectal cancer deaths make up the bulk of excess
deaths for black women, while higher fatalities among black men
were due to prostate, lung and colorectal cancers.
However, the report does feature some bright spots: the overall
gap between black and whites in terms of cancer deaths has narrowed
in recent years due to the faster decline in the rate of death
among blacks (relative to whites) for both lung cancer (and other
smoking-related cancers) and prostate cancer.
In fact, lung cancer fatality rates have actually evened out
among younger blacks and whites, the report noted.
Yet, the news is not equally good for all cancers, the cancer
society cautioned. For example, the race gap appears to have
widened for deaths among women with breast cancer and for both men
and women with colorectal cancer.
"While the factors behind these racial disparities are multifaceted, there is little doubt socioeconomic status plays a critical role," Dr. Otis W. Brawley, chief medical officer for the cancer society, said in a news release. "Black Americans are disproportionately represented in lower socioeconomic groups. For most cancers, the lower the socioeconomic status, the higher the risk."
Among the report's other findings:
Dr. Alfred I. Neugut, co-director of cancer prevention at New
York Presbyterian Hospital in New York City, stressed that "there's
no easy answer" to explain the race-based fatality gap.
"Everything plays a role," he noted. "To me, the term 'disparity' implies something pejorative, or an injustice of society, and some of this is about that. But also some of it is biological, as with prostate cancer, which is not about disparity. It's simply a difference."
"So, I would say delays in getting a diagnosis is a factor, but also much of it is treatment-related and some is differences in lifestyle," Neugut suggested. "But what's most important is the access to care part, because that's the part that should be the most easily remediable, and that's the part that's the most disturbing and constitutes a real disparity. And that's where I think we should focus our energies."
Dr. Basir U. Tareen, the physician-in-charge of urologic
oncology at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City, agreed
that prevention is key.
"From my perspective, I would have said that in terms of prostate cancer, for example, one of the things that we know is that it occurs at a much higher incidence among African-American men, and they also tend to have a more aggressive form of the cancer," Tareen said. "So with this cancer, actually being black is one of the risk factors for the disease, and as a result we actually start screening African-American men five years earlier than white men, just for that reason."
"But clearly, people have various theories as to what is actually behind this, depending on the particular cancer," Tareen added. "Whether there are socioeconomic factors at play or genetic factors, or both. And so these numbers clearly show that we need to explore this further, in order to see whether there are preventable factors here that we can do something about."

The NASA Sounding Rockets Program Office (SRPO) is sponsoring the 2007 Sounding Rocket Campaign at the Poker Flat Research Range (PFRR).
The objectives of this mission are to investigate disturbances in the ionosphere near the magnetic field. Four separate scientific missions will be conducted as part of these investigations. Each mission will consist of a series of observations of the ionosphere, conducted by ground-based science instruments, followed by a series of sounding rocket launches once specific phenomena are observed. A series of 10 sounding rockets will carry a variety of payloads into the ionosphere to make in-situ measurements of the observed phenomena.

This book is about a girl who thinks that she can not draw. So her teacher tells her to put a dot on a piece of paper and then she sees it on the wall and takes it down and she makes it even better!

Emily Lloyd said:
The cover makes it look a little "precious" or cheesily inspirational, but The Dot is a solid classic about the way we see ourselves and the art we make. Vashti, who says she can't draw, is shown in a breathtakingly simple and kind way by her art teacher that she can. She passes the lesson on.

Imec and Altera broaden strategic collaboration on 3DIC
Imec and Altera Corporation announced a broadening of their strategic research collaboration in the framework of imecs INSITE program. Initially focusing on technology insight into 3-D process technologies, collaboration between imec and Altera will now be broadened toward pathfinding process development kits (PDKs) for logic technology.
Altera's participation in imec's industrial affiliation program INSITE is focused on the evaluation of 3D technologies and its impact on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) products. Altera and imec are extending their research collaboration agreement to include 14/10nm CMOS technologies. Imec and Altera will evaluate the readiness and limits of various patterning, finFET and novel interconnect technology options for use in FPGA products.

Maturity and recognition > Journey to the Hebrides
In 1773 Johnson set forth on a journey to the Hebrides. Given his age, ailments, and purported opinion of the Scots, Johnson may have seemed a highly unlikely traveler to this distant region, but in the opening pages of his A Journey to the Western Islands of Scotland (1775) he confessed to a long-standing desire to make the trip and the inducement of having Boswell as his companion. He was propelled by a curiosity to see strange places and study modes of life unfamiliar to him. His book, a superb contribution to 18th-century travel literature, combines historical information with what would now be considered sociological and anthropological observations about the lives of common people. (Boswell's complementary narrative of their journey, The Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides, with its rich store of Johnson's conversation, was published only in 1785, the year after Johnson's death.)

YOU – the making of DVD
$25 4 disc DVD box set 163g
An individual copy of YOU is a humble thing, usually just a single page, photocopied letter folded up in a brown paper bag with the word YOU stamped on the front. But the work that goes into ensuring that an issue of YOU meets its weekly deadline is epic. This four DVD box set documents in real time the conception, construction and distribution of a single issue of YOU. It really brings home the fact that as well as being a zine YOU is a hugely complicated, multi-medium art project to blow your mind. It encompasses writing, printmaking, conceptual art, zine making and, as the DVD shows, endurance art.
Syd Terminal – Folklore
$4 CD-R 45g
Folklore is a CD of music composed on a computer using samples of songs from the original folk revival of the 1960s and 1970s. This music came out of research that Syd did into folk music, myths and traditions, which was also channeled into his zines Victoria, A Walk Around Pendle Hill and others. This CD comes in beautiful, laboriously hand-made packaging, with a wood-block printed cover and letterpress printed insert.

Since working for VICE, my black friends think I've been turning white. I find myself going to events that I wouldn't normally go to. I'm more like R&B and hip-hop. The underground bands? That's just not my music. They have a lot of noise. I like rhythm, not a lot of jumping up and down with skateboards.
When I travel to the Bronx to see my family, I start to realize I would never move there. It is like the pit of hell. I rode that D train and I was like, Where is my gun? When you've been out of that element for so long and then you ride the train… you can't compare the L train to the D train. It's like two different worlds. The L is like riding first class to Vegas. And the D is like you're a hobo on a ship or freight train.

The Utah Jazz are expected to once again use their supersized starting lineup Monday night, when they play host to Houston at EnergySolutions Arena.
Although coach Tyrone Corbin was not available after the morning shootaround to confirm his plans, Gordon Hayward said he was planning to come off the bench for the second straight game.
In Saturday night's 83-76 win at Washington, Corbin juggled his starters for the first time this season.
He started Randy Foye in place of Hayward and Derrick Favors for Marvin Williams.
The move gave Utah a starting front court that included 6-foot-10 Al Jefferson at center, the 6-10 Favors at power forward and 6-foot-8 Paul Millsap at small forward.
The Jazz didn't play well early against the winless Wizards, falling behind by 13 points in the opening minutes. But Hayward came off the bench to fuel a comeback and the Jazz finished with a 2-2 split on their four-game road trip.
"I thought it was average," Hayward said. "I thought we definitely could have played better. ... But it wasn't a disaster, going 2-2. I think you've got to be happy with that."
The Jazz have already played an NBA-high eight road games, but three of their next four are at home, where Utah is 3-0.
"It feels like we've been gone forever, so it's nice to be back for the holidays," Hayward said. "I know a lot of people have family coming in. ...
"We need to get back to Utah Jazz-style of basketball in front of our fans. Our crowd is going to be good for us."
Hayward finished with 15 points and five assists in 25 minutes in his first non-start of the season at Washington.
Asked if he was O.K. with the new role, Hayward nodded and said, "Whatever coach wants us to do, I'm going to do. As long as we get wins, that's what it's all about."

Fiscal Policy and Income Redistribution in Latin America: Challenging the Conventional Wisdom
AbstractConventional wisdom states that fiscal policy redistributes little in Latin America. Lower tax revenues and, above all, lower and less progressive transfers have been identified as the main cause. Existing studies show that, while in Europe the distribution of all transfers combined (cash and in-kind) is egalitarian, the bulk of transfers in Latin America accrue to the upper quintile. Through an in-depth fiscal incidence analysis applied to Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Mexico and Peru we argue that conventional wisdom may be wrong. First, the extent and effectiveness of income redistribution and poverty reduction, revenue-collection, and spending patterns vary so significantly across countries that speaking of "Latin America" as a unity is misleading. The (after direct taxes and transfers) Gini, for example, declines by over 10 percent in Argentina but by only 2.4 percent in Bolivia. In Argentina, Brazil and Bolivia government revenues are close to 40 percent of GDP, whereas in Mexico and Peru they are around 20 percent. Social spending (excluding contributory pensions) as a share of GDP ranges from 17 percent in Brazil to 5.2 percent in Peru. Second, social spending does not accrue to the richest quintile. On the contrary, concentration coefficients for social spending are highly negative (progressive in absolute terms) for Argentina and slightly so for Bolivia and Mexico. In Brazil and Peru social spending is progressive in relative terms only. Third, there is no obvious correlation between the size of government and the size of social spending, on the one hand, and the extent and effectiveness of redistribution, on the other: government size is similar for Argentina and Bolivia but they are on opposite sides in terms of the extent of redistribution.Fourth, due to indirect taxes households are net payers to the "fisc" beginning in the third decile in Bolivia and Brazil; for Argentina, Mexico and Peru this happens in the fifth decile. Fifth, corrective measures differ too: in Argentina, Bolivia and Brazil they may involve the reduction in revenues and total spending, while revenues and social spending (especially direct transfers to the poor) should be increased in Mexico and Peru. Bolivia and Brazil need to introduce changes to their tax and transfer system so that net payers to the "fisc" start at higher incomes. All five countries need to improve the of progressivity of their spending, including non-social spending components.

It has been known as American Station, Anvic, Anvick, Anvig, Anvig Station, and Anwig. The Russian Glazanov reported it as having100 people in 1834. Originally, it was on other side of the river to the northeast, at a place called "The Point." Residents gradually moved across the river with the establishment of an Episcopal mission and school in 1887. A post office opened in 1897. After the flu epidemic of 1918-19 and another in 1927, many orphans became wards of the mission. Some children came from as far away as Fort Yukon. Sternwheelers carried supplies to the village in the early 1920s. Some residents had contracts to cut wood for the sternwheeler's fuel, and fish and furs were sold to traders. The early 1930s brought the first arrival of a plane on skis. The city was incorporated in 1969. Culture Subsistence and home gardening are actively pursued by the local Ingalik Athabascan Indians.

MADISON, Conn. (November 2, 2013) -- The Rutgers men's cross country team placed sixth overall at the inaugural American Athletic Conference Cross Country championships on Saturday at Hammonasset Beach State Park. The Scarlet Knights were led on the 8K course by senior Chris Banafato (Bridgewater, N.J) who placed 19th overall.
Banafato was RU's top finisher in a time of 24:31.28 and was followed by junior Chris DeFabio (Millington, N.J.) in 26th place with his time of 24:41.98.
Other scoring members for the Scarlet Knights were senior Curtis Richburg (West Orange, N.J.) in 31st with a time of 24:53.14, with sophomore Jamin Vekaria (Clinton, N.J.) immediately following in 32nd with a time of 24:54.58 and junior Anthony Horton (Moorestown, N.J.) in 42nd crossing the finish line in 25:32.58.

MUMBAI (Reuters) - India has shortlisted six banks, including Goldman Sachs
Others shortlisted by the Indian government's department of disinvestment for the NTPC
All three sources declined to be identified because they were not authorized to speak to the media before an official announcement.
India's cabinet approved a 9.5 percent stake sale in NTPC in November to help rein in its ballooning fiscal deficit. At current market price, the sale could raise as much as $2.3 billion for the government.
The NTPC stake sale is likely to be completed by the end of this month, two of the sources said.
Selling some shares in state companies is a central plank of the government's plan to bring down a widening fiscal deficit, a major weakness that has triggered repeated warnings of a credit downgrade from global ratings agencies.
The government is aiming to raise $5.5 billion from such partial privatizations in the current fiscal year that ends in March. The faltering divestment program got a boost from a $1.1 billion offering of miner NMDC Ltd
Before the NMDC selldown, the government had raised just $148 million in the current fiscal year in a process hit by volatile markets and wrangling among government officials.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said last month India would speed up the sales to revive the stock market and would push ahead with reforms aimed at spurring an investment recovery in the flagging economy.
The government is also looking to offload some of its stakes in the Steel Authority of India Ltd
