Canada failing veterans with mental illnesses: official watchdog
By David Ljunggren
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada is failing veterans with mental illnesses, an official watchdog said on Tuesday in a stinging report that could hurt the Conservative government less than a year before the next election.
Auditor General Michael Ferguson, who reports to Parliament, said the federal Veterans Affairs ministry was "not adequately facilitating timely access to mental health services."
Ferguson said around 20 percent of veterans complained they had to wait more than eight months to access specialized mental health services, double the time set by the ministry. He blamed what he called a complex application process.
Canada's right-of-center Conservatives, who took power in early 2006, paint themselves as pro-military and have long courted veterans for support.
Some veterans, however, complain about poor services and have promised to campaign against the party in an election scheduled for October 2015. Polls indicate the Conservatives could lose power to the opposition Liberals.
Demand for mental health services has soared in Canada, which maintained a military mission in Afghanistan from 2003 to 2013. During that mission it lost 158 soldiers.
Frank Valeriote, Liberal spokesman for veterans affairs, noted that 160 soldiers - many of them battling mental health problems - had committed suicide over the last decade.
"Today's report is a shameful reminder of the Conservatives' record, confirming that veterans cannot get timely access to the mental health services they need," he said. Continued...

Tel Aviv: State Bank of India's (SBI) branch here has broken even in just second year of its operations, defying speculations by some analysts who saw it as an unwise move to open a branch at a time when other foreign banks were shutting down their offices in the country reports PTI.
SBI became the first bank to open a branch in the Israeli diamond exchange in June 2007 to encash on the burgeoning Indo-Israel trade.
Sources at the Bank of Israel confirmed SBI's remarkable progress, and also executives of other Israeli companies working with the Indian bank.
"After fulfilling all obligations and paying desirable taxes to the authorities concerned, the Indian bank still seems to have made an incredible progress by registering some profits during its early years of operations.
"It has set an example for other foreign banks to follow," a senior executive of a leading Israeli company doing business with India said.
Outgoing CEO of SBI, V Sashikala, speaking to PTI did not comment on this but said that "the bank has managed to successfully prepare its client base across various sectors and as per its strategy made sure that there is no overwhelming reliance on one particular sector".
Indo-Israel trade has been diversifying over the years and even though trade in diamonds still constitute some 50% of the bilateral trade, other sectors have picked up in a big way. The bilateral trade figures between the two countries continue to increase, registering $4 billion in 2008 and is projected to reach $5 billion this year.
"None of the sectors can claim a share of more than 20% in our portfolio", Ms Sashikala said.
Given that the significant portion of bilateral trade between the two countries was in diamonds, SBI's chairman, O P Bhatt, during the inauguration ceremony had said that the bank had operations in all the major diamond trading centres of the world and Tel Aviv completed the loop.
With India and Israel discussing a Free Trade Agreement (FTA), bilateral trade is likely to get a new push which will enhance the scope for the Indian bank's presence in the Jewish state.
Mumbai: Equifax Inc, a global leader in information solutions, today said that it has begun providing its in-depth credit information solutions across India, using member-contributed data from the country's largest banks and financial institutions, reports PTI.
Equifax Credit Information Services (ECIS) brings Equifax's global experience to the growing Indian economy through its joint venture with six leading Indian financial institutions.
These are Bank of Baroda, Bank of India, Kotak Mahindra Prime Limited, Religare Finvest Limited, Sundaram Finance Limited and Union Bank of India.
Equifax applied to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for a certificate of registration to establish the new credit information company under The Credit Information Companies (Regulation) Act, 2005, and was approved for a license in March of this year.
"The emergence of India as a major influence in global commerce, and India's own internal growth, require world-class customer insights and risk-management systems," Equifax Chairman and CEO, Richard F Smith, said in a statement here.
"Our joint venture combines Equifax technology and international experience with a very large and growing database, managed and delivered entirely within India, to give our customers unmatched data and insights, in the most efficient and effective manner," he added.
ECIS has implemented the most stringent standards in the industry for the verification of the information within its database, ensuring its high quality, the statement said.
ECIS is one of only a select few companies granted a license to operate a credit information company in India.
"Our in-country staffing, local hosting, volume and depth of files we already have, allows us to understand the Indian business community and its needs better than any other service provider," ECIS managing director & CEO, Samir Bhatia, said.
"Lenders have told us they want new ways to be able to manage their portfolios," Mr Bhatia said, adding "we will be providing a comprehensive suite of credit risk; customer retention/cross-sell and collection products based on the highest calibre data in the industry."
Equifax's database includes information on more than 572-million consumers and more than 81-million businesses globally.

Champions league is a tournament where top clubs from several cricketing nations participate to be the ultimate champion club of the world. It is a competition between club teams from India, Australia, England, South Africa, Sri Lanka, New Zealand and West Indies.
The competition was started during the year 2008 after Twenty20 domestic format was highly welcomed by most cricketing fans, most notably the Indian Premier League.
However, the inagural torunament could not be held as scheduled following terrorist attacks in Mumbai in November 2008. So, the first tournament was then held in October 2009.
This year the CLT20 is being held for the second occasion and it is being held in South Africa.

Nikkei tumbles to 6-month low as China woes trigger sell-off
* Nikkei, Topix both down over 10 pct from peaks
* Nikkei volatility index at highest in more than 2 yrs
* Banks and other large cap shares sold heavily
By Joshua Hunt
TOKYO, Aug 24 (Reuters) - Japanese stocks posted their biggest fall in more than two years on Monday, with the Nikkei average sinking to a 6-month low on fears of a China-led global economic slump.
The Nikkei share average dropped 4.6 percent to 18,540.68, falling below its 200-day moving average for the first time since October.
The broader Topix fell 5.9 percent to close at 1,480.87, with its turnover surpassing 4 trillion yen for the first time since March.
Both have fallen more than 10 percent from their multi-year peaks hit earlier this year.
"There's significant, ongoing disruption in Asia on the cusp of a potential end to quantitative easing and normalization of rates in the U.S...It's a bit like walking across a minefield at the moment, so people are treading carefully, as they should," said Stefan Worrall, cash equities manager at Credit Suisse.

When Facebook went public back in May, the giddy geeks were all too eager to buy up some shares. That is, until the stock fell flat and shareholders filed a suit against Mark Zuckerberg's brainchild and a bunch of Wall Street suits. Perhaps that poked at the beginning of the end for the network. And, when it does go the way of Friendster, maybe instead of looking at pictures of high school acquaintances' ugly babies, folks will find time to do something interesting -- like develop the next Pinterest, Twitter, or yet-unnamed online tool.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. – Two days after seeing their school record home win streak come to a halt, the Northern Arizona volleyball team started a new one on Saturday and ensured their seniors would leave the Rolle Activity Center as victors in a 25-22, 25-21, 25-21, sweep over Southern Utah. With the victory, the Lumberjacks earned the No. 3 seed in next week's conference tournament and concluded the regular season with a 12-4 conference record.
"It felt great to allow our seniors to leave the Rolle Activity Center with a smile for the last time," said redshirt sophomore Kaylie Jorgenson, who tied for team-high honors with 11 kills. "Hopefully we can do that next week too to give them a storybook ending. They deserve the world, so we were really happy to send them off the right way today."
Seniors Jensen Barton, Lauren Jacobsen and Addy Lofstedt were honored prior to the match and then went out and played huge roles in the sweep. Barton distributed 36 assists and set the NAU attack to a robust .356 hitting percentage in addition to adding seven kills, seven digs and three blocks. Jacobsen notched 11 kills on .321 hitting plus nine digs, while Lofstedt recorded eight kills and hit .500.
Barton also hit a pair of milestones in her final home match as she joined Melissa Haugen and Ruth Parsons as the only Lumberjacks to ever record 4,000 career assists. In the third set, Barton then passed Parsons for second all-time in school history and finished the match with 4,017 assists.
Despite the match sweep, the Thunderbirds were pesky in the loss. The match featured a total of 26 ties and 11 lead changes despite NAU's massive advantage in hitting. Southern Utah only hit .144 for the afternoon.
"We passed the ball well and Jensen did a really good job distributing," said head coach Ken Murphy. "We didn't have the defensive intensity we like to have, but offensively we were in flow the whole match and knew we could get a kill and side out. We were flat at times in the middle of sets, but our team did a good job of recognizing that and making plays at the end of sets."
Southern Utah used a 4-0 run to take a 9-7 lead in the first set and held that advantage until 17-14. Kills from Barton and Jorgensen followed by an ace from redshirt freshman Hannah Cherry forced an SUU timeout, and then NAU took the lead on a combo block by redshirt sophomore Brittni Dorsey and Jorgenson. The Thunderbirds regained the lead at 20-19, but a pair of blocks by Barton and Dorsey followed by Barton and freshman Abby Akin snagged the edge for good as NAU grabbed six of the final nine points.
Sophomore Jordan Anderson served NAU on a tide-changing 6-0 run that turned a 16-13 deficit into a 19-16 lead the 'Jacks did not give back. During the surge, Jorgenson contributed three kills as Barton found her hitters to the tune of 18 second-set kills. Jorgenson, Lofstedt, Jacobsen and Dorsey all put away at least three kills to push NAU to a 2-0 match lead.
NAU was in complete control of the third set bursting out to an 11-6 lead only to see Southern Utah reel off five straight points to tie the score at 11-all. The set remained a tight one until the end when Akin sided out the Thunderbirds with a kill at 22-20. An SUU error followed by Jorgenson's final kill put NAU at match point and it clinched the victory two points later.
The 'Jacks held the statistical advantage in every category except aces with the Thunderbirds totaling four to the Lumberjacks' two. Anderson led all players with 13 digs and was the only Lumberjack with double-digit digs. Dorsey had a hand in four of NAU's 6.0 team blocks.
NAU (22-7 overall record) will now travel to Grand Forks, N.D. for the Big Sky Championships. North Dakota won the regular season title outright and will be the tournament host. The third-seeded Lumberjacks will take on sixth-seeded Portland State in the first round next Thursday, Nov. 17 with a time to be announced.
The Lumberjacks defeated the Vikings twice this season, winning in four sets at home and five sets in Portland.

A couple weeks ago I developed a huge coolant leak somewhere underneath the intake. Had to pull the intake off to find it.
Turns out the heater hose that connects to the rear of the head was split wide open were it connects. Let this be a lesson to all.... don't be cheap or lazy when you have all that stuff off. The only hoses I replaced during rebuild were the two front ones that you have to pull for the radiator. All of the hoses going into the firewall, AND the one coming from the coolant reservoir to the pipe underneath the intake were more than likely factory. That is 16 years old, folks. This car was built in 6/06.
Ordered new ones, replaced all, along with most of the clamps. While I was under there, I noticed that pretty much all of the injector pintle caps (tips) were broken, chipped off, or not there. Bought a kit on Ebay and replaced not only the pintle caps, but also the filter screens.
Other than that, and reseating the VANOS properly back in April, a new water pump and t-stat, restoring and installing leather seats salvaged out of a 98 5'er, this car runs like a finely tuned BMW should run. No codes, no hiccups, no strange engine issues at all other than a slow electrical leak from somewhere (Has been going on for years) that I have to track down. It likes to kill my battery. Course, it could be the battery itself or the alternator. Both easy fixes.
Will probably replace all of my belt tensioners as I believe one of them is making a bit of noise. Can't figure out which one, so they all get replaced.

Why Activity-Based Budgeting? 527 What-If Analysis 533 Transfer Pricing 534 Summary 536
During the last 15 years a revolution in the practice of cost management has occurred. First, activity-based costing (ABC) emerged in the 1980s as a replacement for the traditional standard cost systems that had remained essentially unchanged since the tum of century. Second, activity-based management (ABM)— the operational improvements and strategic actions taken with ABC information— became integrated with other cost-management techniques, such as kaizen and target costing, to produce new ways to reduce costs both across the value chain and over the life of the product. At the same time, the importance of nonfinancial measures to inform and motivate performance improvements became apparent. This book illustrates the conceptual leap from feedback to feedforward cost management, leading to powerful programs for strategic cost management.
This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the various innovations in cost and performance management. Students will learn the individual concepts and, more importantly, how they fit together, enabling companies to reduce costs while maintaining or increasing revenues. Underlying this integration are two powerful concepts: first, the accurate measurement of activity costs; and second, the reduction of costs by continuous and discontinuous improvements. As the organizational integrator, the finance function shifts from being the passive reporter of the past to a proactive influencer of the future. This migration enables cost and performance measurement systems to become embedded in the formulation and implementation of strategies and operational improvements.
We identify three primary functions of cost management systems:
1. measure cost of goods sold and value inventory for the financial reporting function
2. estimate costs of activities, products, services, and customers
3. provide economic feedback to employees and operators about processefficiency.
Using a four-stage model of cost system evolution, we document the evolution of cost-management systems for these three functions. We start with stage I
systems. These systems cannot perform any of the three primary functions well. Next, we explore stage II systems that can perform the first function, financial reporting, effectively but not the two managerial functions. Third, we explore the use of multiple stand-alone stage HI systems, each capable of performing one function effectively. Finally, we introduce the concept of stage IV, where new enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems integrate the capabilities of the stand-alone stage III cost systems into a single system capable of performing all three primary functions. We conclude by documenting the application of activity-based management to budgeting and transfer pricing. These final applications demand such intense information exchanges between the ABC system and other organizational systems that they require the integration capabilities of an ERP-based stage IV system.
Textual material at the beginning of each chapter presents the themes and general principles that will emerge from the study of the cases in the chapter. The cases, written from actual company experience, explore the properties of cost systems. They reveal how the design of cost systems determines the type of information management receives about the costs of its product, production processes, customers, suppliers, and other organizational units. More than 50 percent of the cases are new to this second edition.
The book has been written primarily for classroom use. For MBA and undergraduate courses, we believe the study of multiple cases with each chapter allows the concepts to be learned inductively. Our companion book, Cost and Effect: Using Integrated Cost Systems to Drive Profitability and Performance (Boston: Harvard Business School Press, 1998), was written for executives and practitioners, and contains more illustrative examples and in-depth discussion. For executive programs, with fewer sessions per course, the two books can be combined by having the students read the textual chapters of Cost and Effect while analyzing representative cases from this book.
Even beyond classroom use, practitioners including financial and operational managers, management accountants, and consultants should find much useful material in the second edition. The innovative approaches to cost management have evolved so rapidly and recently that the cases in this book represent the most available and comprehensive presentation of how these emerging concepts are applied in practice. Practitioners who study the cases carefully will learn much about the sources of failure in existing systems and the opportunities for innovative approaches in their own organizations.
The cases have been selected to explore the evolution of cost systems from the stage I systems, that were surprisingly common only 20 years ago, all the way to stage IV systems that are only now beginning to emerge. Chapter 1 introduces the concepts of cost and performance measurement and presents the four-stage model of cost system evolution. The cases for this chapter deal specifically with the failures from stage I and stage II systems that fail to perform all three primary functions of cost measurement systems. Several of the cases show the rudiments of emerging stage III cost systems.
In chapter 2, we learn in more detail about the specific limitations of traditional costing systems for serving managerial purposes. From this start, we can see how innovative systems can provide adopting companies with more responsive, more accurate, and more relevant information for making operational improvements and strategic decisions. The cases in this chapter illustrate effective stage II systems that can accurately value inventory and measure cost of goods sold for financial reporting purposes but provide poor or only limited support for the two managerial functions of cost management systems. The last two cases in the chapter describe how standard costing systems
have been made more timely and responsive for providing feedback on financial expenses.
Chapter 3 illustrates how Japanese and US companies are using new financial and nonfinancial measurement systems to drive employees' learning and improvement activities. The chapter shows innovating Japanese and US companies using kaizen costing and pseudo profit centers for their continuous improvement efforts.
Chapters 4-9 provide a comprehensive treatment of activity-based costing and activity-based management (ABM). Chapter 4 describes the foundations of activity-based costing. The cases involve relatively simple ABC systems, most designed at the very beginning of the ABC movement. Chapter 5 treats the measurement of capacity costs comprehensively, and it illustrates how ABC can switch from being an historic to a prospective costing system. The cases explore the various issues that surround costing unused capacity. Some of the cases deal with traditional systems whereas others explore capacity-adjusted ABC, including the integration of ABC with the theory of constraints.
Chapter 6 and its associated cases explore ABM, both operational ABM, where managers use the ABC information to make better decisions about improving activity and process efficiency, and strategic ABM, which focuses on decisions about product pricing and mix. In addition to the managerial uses of ABC information, the cases in this chapter provide a marvelous learning experience about the implementation issues that arise when installing ABC systems in actual organizations. Chapter 7 extends ABC and ABM out of the factory to encompass the economics of customer and supplier relationships. Students will learn how companies are using ABC information to manage their total value and supply chain more effectively. Chapter 8 and its associated cases illustrate how cost information can be used productively during the product design and development process. The cases show product engineers using both target costing and activity-based cost information to make better product design and development decisions.
Chapter 9 extends the application of ABM principles to nonmanufacturing settings, such as banks and hospitals. By the end of chapter 9, we have documented the current state of the art in operational control and activity-based cost systems. Chapter 10 provides the ultimate destination for the book. It describes the vision for the future: cost and performance measurement systems, tightly integrated together to provide managers with valid, timely information for managerial purposes, as well as for external reporting. The cases in this chapter illustrate the risks of attempting such integration before the principles of stage IV systems are fully understood, and they help to identify the design characteristics for effective stage IV systems.
Chapter 11 builds upon this vision to describe how the ABC system can be used as the foundation for budgeting, on a rational, analytic basis, the organization's future expenses and resource supply. In addition, it explores the application of activity-based principles to transfer pricing. Since stage IV systems are just now emerging at this time, we do not have cases to illustrate these applications.
In developing the ideas in this book, we are obviously indebted to the many individuals and organizations in North America, Europe, and Japan with whom we have worked during the past 15 years. We were fortunate in receiving permission to present many of these cases in undisguised form. The several dozen case studies, drawn from innovative companies willing to share their experiences in implementing new cost management systems, required the cooperation of hundreds of people. We have learned from each of them, and rather than list them individually, we wish to thank them collectively for allowing us to enhance our research by studying their experiences.
We also have benefited from support of the Harvard Business School and the Claremont Graduate University. A combination of teaching assignments and support for the extensive fieldwork and case studies enabled us to learn from and influence practice. With this book, we can leverage this support to share the knowledge with faculty, students, and practitioners around the world. We also appreciate the permission from Harvard Business School Press, and its president, Carol Franco, to use text from our trade book, Cost and Effect: Using Integrated Cost Systems to Drive Profitability and Performance (Boston: Harvard Business School Press, 1998) in preparing the second edition.
Jenica Flores at Harvard Business School gave us great administrative assistance in the preparation of the book. We appreciate the contributions of Professor V. G. Narayanan for use of three of his newest cases. At Prentice-Hall, P. J. Board man provided continual encouragement to share our latest work in a second edition of the book; Annie Todd, as editor, coordinated our contributions and kept us moving forward, and Susan Rifkin gave careful attention to the quality and speed of the production process. We profited from the reviews of William D. J. Cotton, SUNY at Geneseo; Susan S. Hamlen, SUNY at Buffalo; Monte R. Swain, Brigham Young University; and Y. Robert Lin, California State University, Hayward.
In summary, the material in this book presents a state-of-the-art view of the emerging principles of cost management system design. We have observed, after teaching this material, that our students and executives are capable of leading the change in their organizations to redesign their cost management systems. Thus, we feel confident that the material is actionable and practical. However, the material is not a cookbook that can be followed unthinkingly. Students must master the underlying design principles for cost management systems and learn how to apply these principles sensibly and in a cost-effective fashion, recognizing the competitive environment, product and customer mix, process and information technology, and organizational situation in their individual companies.

We recently showcased this amazing Phoenix Dress by Fairytas and now she's back with this gorgeous Valkyrie Rider Costume.
The skirt is 10 meters of golden silk, while the chest piece is attached to a semi leather corset for comfort and has special absorbent fabric under the chest plate and scale sleeves since it's being worn for a horse show and needs freedom of movement.
Horse show? Picture how awesome this is going to look.
See more pictures after the break.

Our school is the same - when DS moved up into the toddler room at about 16.5 mo, our teacher did not want us nursing in the room. It is a good DC, and they are far and few between. I didn't feel it was worth the battle. I either nurse in another room that is being unused at pickup or I nurse him in the car. That doesn't stop DS from trying to pull out my boobs as soon as I see him though

Madly in love with my 7 and 4 year old daughters
Hi... first... big :
I don't have much in the way of a similar experience... but as a working mama who was pumping at work and nursing in public well into my DS' second year I can tell you that the only thing to do is have confidence and be proud of what you are doing.
If she wants to nurse, and you want to nurse her, nurse her. Either straight out ask to use the nursing stations or take her somewhere else and nurse her. I bet you will find that when you display more confidence about your choice you will get more favorable responses.
mama to DD (7), DS (3.5), and another DS arriving in August!
My daughter is 16 mo and I was a SAHM until she was 11mo. I am a full time student studying to become a RN. Her daycare is at my college and they claim to support breastfeeding. They have comfortable chairs in the young infant room and nursing covers for mothers to use in that room. The problem is since my daughter isn't a 'young infant' under six months I have always had to sneak in her nursing with her in a wrap and her head covered. The people that work there give me odd looks when she is nursing and pops her head, and something else, out of the wrap. I don't want to give up nursing her because I feel that child led weaning is the natural and best thing to do but I am at a loss. Should I just nurse her at home and make her wait until we are not at her daycare? Does anyone else have/had a similar problem?
