In 2004, I came out of Stanford with a Master's degree in Computer Science. All of my friends were going to Google, many of them to work for Marissa Mayer in her excellent PM program. I went to work for Yahoo.
While I was at Yahoo, we purchased several amazing properties and hired some of the best product minds in the world. One by one, an organization run by Hollywood execs and then Wall Street execs broke the products and broke the spirits of the brilliant entrepreneurs that they aqui-hired by forcing them to justify their design decisions to a panel of executives who had no clue about product.
After years of stagnation, what should Yahoo do now? Everyone notes that the company's vision is unclear and focus is necessary but where does it go? Yahoo has two extraordinary assets, a distribution engine and a monetization engine. It should use these assets to re-build the world's greatest directory of online content.
Yahoo can monetize better than any individual website because (1) ad revenue goes up when you have a name brand and buy in bulk and (2) ad revenue goes way up when you can do smart targeting across many different properties. Yahoo also has a massive global distribution engine in the form of their homepage and user base.
Why does it point that awesome user-base, that incredible resource base at second-tier properties just because Yahoo owns them? Why not make the "Yahoo Travel" button go to Hipmunk? Why not make the "Yahoo News" go to Prismatic? There's no need to buy all of these companies, just setup revenue sharing – the incentive structure works much better!
What if web developers saw Yahoo as an enormous distribution and monetization platform? More importantly, what if users knew that the Yahoo homepage would send them to best of breed in every category? Everyone would have a reason to use the Yahoo homepage again. What are the best sites for buying cars, playing online games, checking the weather? I don't do any of these things enough to know, and today Google just sends me to the sites with the most advanced SEO.
Yahoo can learn from and emulate the success of Apple and Facebook's app stores. Curate and promote high quality applications to give users a great experience and take a share of the revenue from the featured applications.
Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter all offer identity platforms but without an integrated advertising/monetization solution and without the ability to strongly promote high quality apps. Developers on the Facebook platform often spend their time bolting on unwanted viral features to their applications in order to acquire users. Yahoo could use its homepage to become the internet's largest driver of user traffic and help promote the highest quality applications while making a ton of money in the process.

Michael Weissenstein and Olga r. Rodriguez / The Associated Press
MEXICO CITY — A blast that collapsed the lower floors of a building in the headquarters of Mexico's state-owned oil company, crushing 32 people beneath tons of rubble and injuring 121, is being looked at as an accident, although all lines of investigation remain open, the head of Petroleos Mexicanos said Friday.
Firefighters and workers dig for survivors following an explosion at a building next to the 52-story tower of Petroleos Mexicanos, or Pemex, in Mexico City on Thursday.
The Associated Press
As hundreds of emergency workers dug through the rubble, the disaster was fueling debate about the state of Pemex, a vital source of government revenue that is suffering from decades of underinvestment and has been hit by a recent series of accidents that have tarnished its otherwise improving safety record.
Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto has pledged to open the oil behemoth to more private and foreign investment, setting off warnings among leftists about the privatization of an enterprise seen as one of the pillars of the Mexican state.
"It seems like, from what experts can observe, is that it was an accident," Pemex Director-General Emilio Lozoya told the Televisa network. "However, no line of investigation will be discounted."
Early signs pointed to a problem in an area that housed electrical and air-conditioning equipment, according to a government official who was not authorized to speak by name. Pemex said in a tweet in the first minutes after the accident it had evacuated the building because of a problem with the electrical system.
Lozoya said the priority remains rescue and recovery, plus attending to the injured and families of those who died as the death toll had risen to 32. He said 52 remained hospitalized and survivors and bodies still may be found in the rubble.
More than 500 firefighters, soldiers and rescue workers dug through chunks of concrete, aided by dogs, trucks and a Pemex crane.
"There is a lot of risk," rescuer German Vazquez Garcia said of working on the site.
The explosion was the worst in more than a decade for Pemex. Last September, an enormous blast killed 30 workers at a pipeline facility in northern Mexico.
That disaster was a major setback to a safety record that had been improving following a series of incidents in the 1980s and 1990s, according to company figures. The number of accidents per million hours worked dropped by more than half, from 1.06 in 2005 to 0.42 in 2010. That is in line with the international average of about 0.43 per million, according to the U.K.-based International Association of Oil and Gas Producers, which does not independently verify company numbers.
But Pemex acknowledged in a report that starting in late 2011, a series of smaller blasts and fires, mainly at refineries and petrochemical plants, had "seriously impacted" its safety rate. It said the rate of injuries per million hours had risen to 0.54.
Before the pipeline blast in Reynosa, Pemex's last big accident was in 2007, when a sudden storm hit an offshore oil rig, killing 22 workers.
Thursday's explosion occurred at about 3:45 p.m., just as the administrative shift was about to end. It hit the basement and three floors, where as many as 250 people work, Lozoya said. The floors collapsed in the 14-story administrative building at the headquarters office complex, which was built starting in the late 1970s. Some 10,000 people work there daily. Lozoya said about 1,700 work in the building affected.
To the untrained observer, the offices appeared to be showing signs of age surprising for the headquarters of a major oil company. The elevators were often out of service or crept slowly between floors. Its bathrooms were dirty and the floors were worn.
Gabriela Espinoza, 50, a Pemex secretary for 29 years, was on the second floor of the tower when she said she heard two loud explosions and a third smaller one.

1941 Tatra T87 Aerodynamic Saloon
Chassis no. 49870
Engine no. 12786345
* 2.9-liter air-cooled alloy V-8
* 4-speed transmission
* One of the fastest cars of the day
* The inspiration for Ferry Porsche's Volkswagen
* Extremely rare in the US
One of Europe's oldest car makers, the Czech firm of Tatra has a history dating back to 1850 and a reputation for technical innovation thanks largely to the fertile mind of talented Austrian engineer Hans Ledwinka. The T87 is one of the most advanced cars of the pre-war period and was well ahead of its time, combining streamlining with a radical layout that heavily influenced Dr. Ferdinand Porsche's design of the Volkswagen Beetle. In fact the similarities were so blatant that Tatra subsequently sued the German company for infringing 11 different patents. The aerodynamic exterior, incorporating a 'cyclops' third headlamp, rear fin and full unibody construction with belly pan, allowed the T87 to cruise the new highways of Europe at speeds approaching 100mph.
Beneath the stylish coachwork, the Tatra was powered by a rear-mounted 2.9-liter magnesium alloy, air-cooled overhead-cam V8 producing 85 horsepower. Suspension was fully independent, with hydraulic brakes. The luxurious Tatra was an expensive car when new but did sell in relatively impressive numbers, with just over 3,000 built between 1936 and 1950. Very few Tatras have ever made it to the United States and there an estimated ten T87s in the country today an example can be found in Jay Leno's suitably eclectic Big Dog Garage, and one graces the foyer of Peter Mullin's spectacular museum, the only non-French marque exhibited there.
The late Martin Swig, organizer of the California Mille, acquired this particular T87 after using it on a rally in the Czech Republic approximately a dozen years ago. Having always wanted a Tatra T87, Martin so enjoyed driving the car he duly purchased it and had the car shipped home to California. The Tatra had previously been restored in the Czech Republic but Swig wanted the car to be absolutely "on the button", so had the V8 engine overhauled by Pit Stop Automotive in San Francisco.
With a lovely patina, this T87 presents as a functional driver's car with generally straight bodywork. The paint exhibits a few minor flaws that are in keeping with the overall condition, the chrome is very good and the glass is excellent. The wheels have been refurbished and the car sits on period white wall tires. Inside the upholstery has been re-trimmed in period brown corduroy and the gauges restored; overall the cabin has a lovely period feel, with several unique touches such as articulated coat hangers and cloth headliners. With plenty of room inside for four adults thanks to the rear-engined layout and great visibility all round, the Tatra is a unique and fabulous tour car.
Bonhams staff recently enjoyed an extensive test drive of the T87, during which the Tatra performed very well, with all major systems working correctly. Swig regularly exercised the Tatra in the Bay Area during his ownership.
Welcome at most major rallies and shows around the world, Tatras evoke great enthusiasm and interest from onlookers and are considered technological masterpieces. The T87 is the high water mark of Tatra's technical innovation and with most examples in long-term ownership, this sale represents a unique opportunity to purchase one of these idiosyncratic, technologically fascinating Czech automobiles.

As someone who is a lover of all things tech, I am a huge sucker for cool apps. My iPad has quickly filled up with some that I have decided I would be totally lost without. It's no surprise that a few of these are fashion apps, and perhaps even some you may have already scooped up for yourself. Check out my top fashion apps that I think are worthy of the download.
1. POSE. Here's the rundown: it's free, it's fun, and it's chock full of inspiration! Pose lets you share and discover styles from around the world. You know you already take self-portraits with your iPhone or iPad on those days you look extra cute, so why not share them with the world? Note-worthy posers are often featured on the Pose blog, which gives your inner-fashionista something to shoot for.
2. STYLE.COM. This is one glossy baby, right here. If high fashion is your thing, you'll love watching videos of the latest runway shows and fashion parties across the globe. Where else can you see up-to-date photos of Sofia Coppola's new outfit at the opening of Louis Vuitton's Haute Joaillerie store?

Canadian Cancer Society
Fighting since 1938
This year marks the 75th Anniversary of the Canadian Cancer Society. It is an occasion to look back on the Society's successes over 75 years. We have so much to be proud of but there is much more to be done. To find out more about our accomplishments and our history, visit 75th Anniversary Impact moments.
How the Society began
The Canadian Cancer Society was officially formed in 1938, but the seeds for the Society were planted back in 1929 when the Saskatchewan Medical Association formed the country's first cancer committee.
This committee responded to growing concern by doctors that people were not aware of the signs of cancer. By the time people consulted a doctor, their cancer was advanced and their chances for survival were decreased. Cancer committees in other provincial medical associations followed, and in 1931 the Canadian Medical Association's National Study Committee on Cancer was formed.
In 1935, the Governor General of Canada invited Canadians to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the coronation of George V by donating to the King George V Silver Jubilee Cancer Fund. The campaign successfully raised almost $500,000 by the end of the year.
In 1937, the National Study Committee recommended the formation of the Canadian Society for the Control of Cancer, and this new organization was officially launched the following year. We changed our name to the Canadian Cancer Society a few years later.
During our early years, we received most of our income from an annual grant from the Canadian Medical Association based on the interest of the King George V Silver Jubilee Fund.
In 1947, the National Cancer Institute of Canada now the Canadian Cancer Society Research Institute was formed through an agreement between the Canadian Cancer Society and the Department of National Health and Welfare. Since then, the Canadian Cancer Society and the Canadian Cancer Society Research Institute have worked towards a common goal while, at the same time, retaining their own identities and purposes.
Creation of the "Canadian Society for the Control of Cancer" which would become, a few years later, the Canadian Cancer Society.
The National Cancer Institute of Canada (NCIC) becomes the Canadian Cancer Society's scientific partner.
Opening of the Canadian Cancer Society's first office in Quebec, in Montreal.
Official opening of the Society's Quebec City office under the name "À la porte rouge" (The Red Door).
First Daffodil Day held in Quebec. The campaign raises $9,000.
Robert Bourassa, then a young member of the National Assembly, becomes the first president of the Canadian Cancer Society's fundraising campaign in Montreal.
Expansion of patient services. The Society ensures that services not covered by Quebec Medicare are available to people living with cancer.
The Society sets up offices in several regions of Quebec.
The Canadian Cancer Society celebrates its 50th anniversary.
Inauguration of the Society's Lodge, in Montreal.
First Daffodil Ball is held at the Chalet atop Mount Royal.
Inauguration of the Cancer Information Service, a toll-free telephone service (1 888 939-3333), accessible across Canada in English and French.
The Canadian Cancer Society adopts a new image of hope and strength: the daffodil.
Inauguration of the J'ARRÊTE! Smokers' Helpline (1 888 853-6666). The information and support helpline for smokers who want to quit. This service is jointly coordinated by the Quebec Council on Tobacco & Health and the Canadian Cancer Society.
Expansion project for the Society Lodge.
Integration of all Society Divisions' websites and launch of a new integrated website, www.cancer.ca.

Did you try clicking on the magazine logo rather than on the "click here?" I'm told that works.
I'm also told that, if you remove the %22 at the end of the bad link, that will take you to the right place.
Or, I'm afraid my last suggestion is to wait until tomorrow (sorry) when I'm told the circulation folk will be sending out a new email with the correct link. Apologies for the confusion.
Link didn't work from the email.

Captivate 5
Hi people, I am new to Captivate only been using for a couple of days. I use it at work to create interactive guides for disabled students. When using failure captions is it possible to make them appear after a certain amount of wrong clicks? Also I have discovered if I click randomly on a slide about four times it skips to the next slide, obviously I do not want it to do this as we want the user to actually click in the right places and so on before it moves to the next slide.
Welcome to Adobe Forums,
As per you description, it seems that you are using Click box.
On a quiz there is an option to increase the failure level (On a quiz slide, under Quiz properties) but on a click box, failure caption appears as soon as you click outside the area associated to that cilck box.
About the random click, just want to confirm did you click on the click box when you were clicking randomly (If "action" for the click box is "Go to next slide", then it will move to next slide)
Hope this helps !!
Thanks very much! Solved the issue about moving to the next slide after random clicks.
Quick question about the quiz, am I able to still use interactive features like click boxes and text entry boxes?
Would like to have more details before offering a solution.. Like Vikram asks: are you talking about click boxes, and if yes, did you add them yourself or were they created when capturing a software training simulation? Do you have only one click box on a slide or multiple? And is it possible to post a screenshot of the timeline of the slide, to see more about your random clicks? Each click box normally pauses at the end of its timeline, want to see of the click boxes are staggered if you have more than one? Check the Action properties of the click box: there is a Success action (when the user has clicked on the click box) and Failure, which will only be visible if you limited the number of attempts.
If you want to show a text caption after a number of wrong clicks, this is possible:
You cannot add interactive objects to a regular quiz slide. What do you want to achieve there?
To confirm I was clicking randomly around the screen, nothing to do with click boxes, and Vikram's solution appeared to work.
Thanks Lilybiri as the showing a text caption after a number of wrong clicks works. Also I was not sure what was possible to do when using quiz slides so they will not be any use to me for what I'm trying to achieve at the moment.
Hi again,
I've realised I was wrong about the randomly clicking problem, the video I have inserted shows you that when I randomly click around the screen after a certain amount of clicks it moves to the next slide even though I have not clicked in the click box. Also on the slides with text entry boxes it moves to the next slide even when I type such things as "fhfhdh" instead of what its actually meant to accept and with my text entry boxes I have added the Enter key as a shortcut as this is how the software works that the students interact with.
I couldn't see the link between the answer you marked as correct and the behavior you did see, but you marked it as correct so...
Have to see the properties of the click box: when you click randomly you are clicking outside of the click box and normally the Failure caption should show up. If the attempts are set to Infinite normally you should be able to click as many times as you wish and the playhead would stay at the same place, in your case at about 1.5secs
Same happens with TEB: please show me the properites, is the TEB to be validated, how many attempts do you allow....
Sorry It seemed to work at the time. I think my solution for this is that I allow 3 attempts then have a caption pop up telling the user where to click, then duplicate the slide then if then get it wrong another 3 times on the duplicated slide (but they shouldnt as I have told them what to do in the first caption) then another caption will pop up saying they have got it wrong too many times and it will then move on to the next slide. Thanks so much for the help though Lilybiri!
Do not understand what you want, because this seems now different from your first question. Beware: if you duplicate slides, that means that the score of that question will be included twice in the total score! Check Advanced Interaction panel (F9) to see all scored objects and questions.
Also just wanted to ask quickly, my boss uses Captivate 6 and has told me when he is making a simulation he is finding trouble with text entry boxes on consecutive slides, on the first text entry slide it looks like someone has already clicked into the text entry box and allows you to type straight away without having to click into the box which is great and is exactly what we want, but if we have more than 1 slide with text entry boxes then it does not already click into the box (it allows works on the first slide, but never on follwing slides). I have tested this in Captivate 5 and it works how it should, could this be a bug with Captivate 6???
Just stumbled upon an issue with the showing a text caption after a number of wrong clicks solution, on slides with click boxes once the slide duration has been played and then you use the number of wrong clicks the caption does not appear but it does appear if you use the number of wrong click within the slide duration time.
Do not understand very well this issue. Could you post a screenshot of the timeline, and of the PI for the click boxes?

The Oregon Coast Restaurant Reviews
Deciding which restaurant has the best clam chowder is just one of the culinary fact-finding expeditions you can embark upon along the Oregon Coast. Chefs here take full advantage of the wealth of sturgeon, chinook, steelhead, and trout found in coastal rivers. Fresh mussels, shrimp, and oyster shooters are also standard fare in many establishments. Newport's bounty is its Dungeness crab. When razor clams are in season, they appear as a succulent addition to restaurant menus throughout the state. Also popular are desserts made from Oregon's wealth of blueberries, marionberries, and huckleberries.
Away from the upscale resorts, most restaurants tend to be low-key and affordable. There are cozy pubs and bistros, and tasty fish-and-chips are easy to come by. In addition, Oregon Coast restaurants proudly serve reds and whites from Willamette Valley wineries and rich ales from local or on-site breweries.

Commercial "one-a-day" supplements provide very low potencies. Compared to "one-a-day" products, Life Extension® Two-Per-Day contains up to 50 times more potency of specific nutrients. This Two-Per-Day formula is available in tablet or capsule form.
Commercial supplements often contain the cheapest form of nutrients that fail to provide optimal benefits. For example, the 50 IU of synthetic vitamin E contained in Centrum® Silver® Adults 50+ may provide relatively little vitamin E to the bloodstream compared to the 100 IU of natural vitamin E in Two-Per-Day.
Two-Per-Day provides the three most effective forms of selenium which are sodium selenite, L-selenomethionine, and Se-methyl L-selenocysteine, plus alpha lipoic acid.

Love this Multivitamin
By Karena
from Canada
About Me Health Conscious
Comments about Life Extension Two-Per-Day Tablets, 120 tablets:
This Multivitamin is excellent! I have low thyroid and my hands and feet are always cold. But after taking this supplement it seems to make my body heat up and speed up my metabolism. Thanks to the addition of kelp in here it is a seaweed that is known to boost thyroid function. I wish it would have some more thyroid boosting elements in it, because having low thyroid issues i know now how important it is to take something along with your synthetic prescription medicine like Synthroid. Keep up the good work and hope you come up with some more exciting and new formulations!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Tastes lousy!
By FatMartin
from North Providence, RI
About Me First Time User, Health Conscious, Heave Supplement User, Heavy Supplement User
See all my reviews
Besides the unpleasant taste, this seems to be an excellent multi-vitamin. Please consider getting rid of the KELP,(your iodine source), as it spoils an otherwise good product. Tablets are easier to swallow than big capsules, so I'm out of luck. Consider using the same potassium iodide as is in the Mix Tablets and get rid of that kelp! It's discusting and spoils this product!!!

The fact that I only need to take 2 per day and get all the nutrition added to my diet that I need is a great benefit. The cost of this product more than justifies the daily use.

Reclaimed Wood iPad Stand
Oregon black walnut iPad stand made from saw mill ends and sustainably harvested trees. A KM exclusive. Keeps iPads and other tablets upright and out of puddles. Made in Oregon. Allow one week for delivery. Ships free. (
Each block is one of a kind, hewn from a single piece of Oregon black walnut, a strong, durable, true heartwood. The wood comes from saw mill ends or furniture shop scraps or even from trees culled by the city of Portland. If not saved from the scrap heap, much of the wood would otherwise be destined for making presto logs.
The blocks are cut and finished by hand, one at a time. The rubber feet, screwed securely into the base, prevent slippage and offer stability. The stand is polished and sealed with two coats of Skidmore's beeswax and linseed oil finish to enhance the wood's grain and patina and to protect it from moisture.
A prime cut of Oregon wood via Block & Sons Co.
Use & Care
Unfinished hardwood keeps water out pretty well on its own, and the block has two coats of wood finish on it. If you spill something, wipe it off with a dry cloth. If the block is frequently exposed to a lot of moisture, you might give it a light application of wood finish with a clean cloth once a year.
Production & Design
Block and Sons Co. was started by Dirk Frewing and John Skelton. The company and its figurative head, C. Everett Block, a creation of the founders, are a tribute to the loggers and logging history of Oregon. A Spanish teacher, Frewing grew up with a handy grandfather, is a tinkerer himself, and has spent many summers working for contractors. He noticed that his wife would lay her iPad on the counter in puddles of water and thought there had to be a better solution than what was out there. He and Skelton liked the contrast of Mother Nature's beautifully imperfect engineering with the sleekly perfect tech devices, and wanted to create something that would endure. Their company sources only scrap and sustainably harvested wood.

Stars on Holiday1 of 14
By Amy Elisa Keith
Whether it's a winter wonderland ski trip in Aspen or a beach retreat on tropical Necker Island, these are the uber-exclusive vacation destinations of the stars.
South Africa2 of 14
Even before the World Cup, stars flocked to the gem country of Africa for safaris, shopping and amazing beaches. Oprah has made the country home to her school for girls, and Matt Damon and Clint Eastwood have traveled to Cape Town for fun. One&Only Cape Town is the celebrity hotel of choice in the oceanside town, before stars head to Johannesburg for tours of Nelson Mandela's original home in Soweto.
St. Tropez3 of 14
This French Rivera town is sizzling with stars in the summertime. From Tom Cruise shopping to Diddy's infamous yacht parties, St. Tropez is the shore to be on. The playground of the rich and famous features delicious terrace cafes, slow-cruising expensive cars and classy nightclubs.
Bora Bora4 of 14
Jetting to French Polynesia is a privilege few enjoy. But for Nicole Kidman and Quincy Jones, Bora Bora is a divine destination for a little R&R. A lagoon and a barrier reef surround the isle where most visitors stay in huts situated on the water. Popular star spots include Le Meridien resort and Bloody Mary's restaurant.
Necker Island5 of 14
Sir Richard Branson's private island paradise in the British Virgin Islands is hired privately for a maximum of 28 guests costing a minimum of $53,000 per night for the group. Celebs like Mariah Carey and Kate Winslet have been guests on the white sandy beaches that offer kitesurfing and solitary lazy hammocks throughout the property. Even after an August 2011 fire demolished his Great House, Branson has already rebuilt the estate in time for his daughter's wedding this month.
Maldives6 of 14
Another star magnet, the Maldives is a gorgeous island in the Indian Ocean near Sri Lanka. Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem both escaped to this small island retreat in the beginning of their romance. Boasting private ocean villas and pristine white beaches accompanied by warm waters, this is the getaway of getaways.
Lake Como7 of 14
Drop-dead gorgeous actor George Clooney put this Italian lake on the map with his 18th century villa. Throughout the year and on holidays, Clooney can be found recharging at his Italian villa with friends like David Beckham, Matt Damon and Brad Pitt. Talk about a guys' getaway!
Capri8 of 14
The Italian island of Capri has been a coastal resort location of the stars for decades. Celebs like Eddie Murphy and Bill and Giuliana Rancic cannot get enough of the champagne-filled nights and exclusive shopping at Anacapri, which is tucked in the hills at the far end of the island. Temptation is guaranteed every step of the way.
Rio de Janeiro9 of 14
Stars like Hugh Jackman and Gisele Bundchen have embraced the cocktails, culture and caliente weather of Rio de Janeiro. Whether it's for the annual Carnival or for the laidback beach culture, Rio is a must-visit city. We're sure that tons of Hollywood heavyweights will make the journey down south for the 2014 FIFA World Cup and the Summer Olympics just two years later.
Paris10 of 14
Power couple Ryan Seacrest and Julianne Hough took to the City of Lights last year with a trip to Paris alongside his family. Taking in the best of the city, the duo dined at Frederic Simonin restaurant and braved the cold to catch Monet's sold-out exhibition at the Grand Palais.
Ibiza11 of 14
This party town off the coast of Spain attracts an A-List crowd year-round. Actor Leonardo DiCaprio has frequently chartered a yacht for mid-summer vacations with the guys (and sometimes his girlfriend of the moment) and gets out for some snorkeling and sightseeing.
Hawaii12 of 14
Around Christmas each year you can catch President Obama and the first family vacationing in Maui for a warm weather getaway. Who can blame them? It's breathtakingly beautiful, with endless golf courses and golden sunrises. Stars like Pierce Brosnan and Sophie Monk agree, and their sun-kissed tans prove it.
Aspen13 of 14
The Colorado town is one of the hottest ski destinations on the planet. Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn own a home here, and Demi Moore frequently vacations. Aspen features excellent shopping and cozy digs at places like Hotel Jerome, where snow bunny Mariah Carey has hosted parties.
Dubai14 of 14
The gem of the United Arab Emirates is fast becoming a popular playground for American celebrities looking to try sandboarding, five-star ethnic cuisine, and to visit the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world. Actor Tom Cruise spent weeks in the city and performed his own stunts for Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol dangling from the famed skyscraper. Meanwhile, Chris Brown just returned from a weekend trip to Dubai with his new girlfriend where the pair raced in the sand dunes.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed Abou Diaby will miss the start of the season with an ankle injury.
GettyImagesAbou Diaby joined Arsenal from Auxerre in 2006
• Arsenal losing patience
• 'Nothing official' on Campbell
• Walcott injury scare for Arsenal
Diaby has struggled to stay injury free since sustaining a fractured, dislocated ankle in 2006. Last campaign the France international managed just 13 Premier league starts for Arsenal.
The former Auxerre midfielder has now undergone surgery on a troublesome ankle problem, meaning he will miss the start of the new season.
Wenger told the club's official website: "Abou had ankle surgery during the break. Normally he should be back eight to ten weeks after his surgery, which means the end of August."

Centenary Stage Company's THE WIZARD OF OZ Opens This Weekend
Centenary Stage Company will present The Wizard of Oz for their Holiday Musical Spectacular. Opening this Friday the 23rd at 8 p.m., shows are already filling up fast. Audiences can begin the holiday season with a family classic brought to life at the Sitnik Theatre in the David and Carol Lackland Center. Featuring a cast of 50 actors on the stage, The Wizard of Oz is a musical tradition following the story of Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, the Lion and Toto, too. These beloved characters visit Hackettstown on their way to the Emerald City, as CSC presents the Royal Shakespeare Company'S (RSC) adaptation by Frank Gabrielson and John Kane, with Music and Lyrics from the MGM motion picture score by Harold Arlen and E.Y. Harburg. The RSC said this adaptation came about when the Artistic Director of the company asked for a show that could be performed annually over the Christmas season, so this show is especially made for families to celebrate the holiday season.
This production includes lively dance routines and familiar songs such as Academy Award-winning song "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" as well as an added show-stopping dance number, "The Jitterbug," which was edited out from the original movie. Artistic Director Carl Wallnau stated, "You only have to say it to people, and a smile comes on their face." Directed and choreographed by Broadway, film, and television veteran Michael Blevins, The Wizard of Oz features a cast of talented actors, dancers and musicians from all over New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
Flying By Foy, one of the most prolific and widely-respected theatrical flying services in the world, headquartered in Las Vegas, has come to execute the flying of the Witches, the Wizard, the monkeys, and more, creating a spectacle not to be missed and a first for Centenary Stage Company.
The Friday, November 30th performance of The Wizard of Oz will coincide with Hackettstown's Hometown Holiday Celebration, which will include the arrival of Santa in a horse-drawn sleigh, horse-drawn carriage rides between Centenary and the Holiday Gazebo, a parade featuring the Colonial Musketeers, performances by local choirs and a holiday bazaar. For more information on the celebration, visit the Hackettstown Business Improvement District website at hackettstownbid.com.
The dining hall at the Lackland Center will also host a special Yule Fest dinner ($12.50) before the show dates on Saturday, November 1st and 8th and a brunch ($10.00) on Sunday, November 2nd and 9th. There will be different vendors from the community also set up selling special holiday gifts so that audiences can get an opportunity to catch up on their holiday shopping.
The Wizard of Oz opens Friday, November 23rd and will run until December 9th. Tickets range from $20-$29.50 with discounts for students and seniors. Every Thursday night is "Family Night," which offers a 2-for-1 rush ticket price when purchased at the door. Performance times are Thursdays at 7:30 p.m., Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. There are also 2 p.m. matinees on Friday, November 23rd (preview) and Wednesday, November 28th and 10 a.m. school matinees on Tuesday, December 4th and Wednesday, December 5th. To purchase tickets or to find more information on other performances in the 2012-2013 season, visit www.centenarystageco.org or call (908) 979-0900. Patrons are encouraged to check the age recommendations for individual shows.

Statoil: A Cheap 4.1% Yielder
Labutes IR • Wed, Mar. 26 • 11 Comments
- Statoil is a major oil company offering good growth prospects over the next few years due to its successful exploration history.
- It has a better risk profile than other oil & gas companies, due to low exposure to refining margins in Europe and low geo-political risk exposure.
- A dividend yield above 4% and a cheap valuation compared to peers makes Statoil a compelling investment opportunity.

Product Description
No one in its class performs better* and no one in its class cleans better.**
The Kenmore® 28102 washer is now bigger.*** It also features the high-performing Triple Action® impeller to provide a deep clean, 3-part wash motion while using less water. This triple action system includes a wash basket motion, an impeller action and a burst of concentrated detergent pumped through the wash plate.
The white Kenmore 2810 washing machine uses 63% less water and 73% less energy for over $175 per year in total savings.† It also makes it easier than ever to get whiter whites, thanks to the Timed Oxi™ dispenser. Just press a button, and your oxi additives are released into the wash at the right time to help boost cleaning power. Set-in stains are no match for the Soak cycle that helps eliminate tough stains from clothing. The PreWash option also lets you customize your wash to clean organic stains like berries, wine or extra-dirty loads.
- Combining wash basket motion, impeller rotation and a burst of concentrated detergent, the Triple Action® impeller deep cleans fabrics while using less water.
- Stainboost™ extends wash time for a deeper soak, better cleaning penetration and more powerful stain removal while remaining gentle on fabrics.
- The timed Oxi-Option™ is designed to automatically add powdered oxygen cleaners at just the right moment in your washer's cycle for deeper cleaning and brighter whites.
- Designed to effectively clean up to 20 towels at once, this 4.5 cu. ft. capacity washer gets more clean in fewer loads.
- Rapid basin rotation uses centrifugal force to remove excess moisture from fabrics quickly, reduce dry times and ease transfer from washer to dryer.

I replaced my old Kenmore with this product. So far I have been pleased. I chose this model for its cost effectiveness while still offering the cycles and options desired. It took a few loads to get used to it after being accustomed to the older models with agitator, but so far I have been pleased. I have not been able to tell a huge difference in cleanliness of the clothing and have had to re-run a few loads that held detergent after completing the full cycle. The major brands and baby detergents produce HE detergents which is all this machine runs, but I do like the way that it leaves the clothes damp after it's spin cycle and is much more gentle on clothing than the older washers. Only cons would be the inability to gets the whites truly white as older models and the soap not completely rinsing despite setting for a double rinse at times. Over all it is a good washer...it has quirks just as other models and older ones. Works well with the complimenting dryer. Cuts laundry time in half!

It takes way longer then my agitator washer that we had for 10 years prior to this one. A load on the "normal" setting takes over 63 minutes. I believe the heavy duty cycle takes 75 minutes. The heavier the load cycle you choose, the longer the time. Also, adding fabric softener or bleach/oxi clean makes the cycle even longer. However, since the drum is very generous, I can get more clothes inside, and because the spin cycle is super powerful, it spins better than my old one. So I can get more clothes in the dryer and because of the spin cycle being so powerful, the dryer keeps up, so I don't have to dry the clothes longer then before. We've had this for a month, and so far, only 2 things I've had to rewash because they were still stained. (It's safe to say it wouldn't have happened with my old washer, and I use SHOUT as a pre treater). This washer has sensors, which sense the load size for you (no way to choose your load size manually). Only problem is, the water does not come up over top of the clothes. (HE washers do this). I don't like that. And everything is digital. Just something else to make it break sooner (we shall see). I will say that it is a lot quieter than my old one. If I had to choose, and could have found one with the size I wanted, I would have gotten a plain old agitator style one. But so far, so good with this one I guess.

As with other reviews, this washer gets clothes very clean. I use a liquid detergent. I am not sure if those who have problems use a powder. But the liquid detergent is quickly mixed with the little amount of water used to create a concentrated cleaning solution. It may be that the powder detergents do not mix so quickly. The oxi dispenser takes the powder and works well. Love all the cycles and modifications you can quickly, easily, and logically make re: water temps, soil levels, etc. and how the machine will lock out some of these if making changes is inappropriate. Basically, it is impossible to make mistakes. I just pinned a chart up above the washer for my wife to initially use describing what each of the cycles was for since they were different than what she was used to following and this analog woman in a digital age has had no problems. I thought we would be using the Express cycle or the Deep Wash cycle but haven't. The cycles are not that long considering how much clothing you can put in at a time and the clothes get super clean without needing extra water. We do use the extra rinse routinely, but always have with all our washers in the past as well. Why 4 stars and not 5? Because after 3 weeks, I had to push my washer back 4" because it had "walked". Did not like having to push it back. Finally, as in another review for the dryer, ALL manufacturers of appliances have quality control problems overseas, especially with the electronics. If you get a lemon, it does not mean the appliance design is bad; just that you got the lemon. Return it for another immediately even if you have to do it more than once. Sears is great about that.

I had this thing for 3 months and so far no matter how much or little He soap is used, it leaves white gunk on the clothing...even after rinsing more than once without any soap at all. The clothing, even with less than 1/2 load don't even get fully wet. The technician was called and could not find anything we were doing wrong to cause this nor any residue left from any overuse of soap. After trying everything for 3 months, this finally went back and we're getting a front loader. I have bought Kenmore for years...1st major issue with it...and of course, this one is made by Whirlpool...a brand I would usually avoid. Save your money and sanity. Go with just about anything else.

Love this machine, and you Must Read the Manual. My sister and I are positively thrilled, we get the loads done and have empty baskets for days. This machine cannot be used like the old machines. You must read the manual and do exactly as it says. Love it, less water, less detergent and washing aids are used but the clothes come out beautifully done. Make sure to use the proper cycle, loaded as the manual says, don't put powder detergent on the outer inside on the bottom inside but only on the inner spinner, won't cake if put on the inner portion. Make sure you start modifying how much washing aids you are putting in. Too much detergent and other chemicals won't make the loads come out. I recommend doing test loads and see how the cycles run. The detergent, bleach and oxi channels in the side are used by the machine to run water so make sure nothing clogs them. We are going to have a low water summer so it may be a saving grace for our water. Lastly, you will end up running you dryer less as it spins the water out of the clothes efficiently. If the clothes are damp you can run another spin and get more water out before putting them in the dryer. If you feel you need another rinse you can pick the rinse and spin button and give them another rinse. Truly a computerized washing machine that knows what it is doing. I could go on and on.

I bought this to replace my Kenmore Front End Loader which broke. I have found that HE soap does not get rinsed well in this was. Not sure why, but I have owned this washer for less than a year and am cutting my loss via getting a front end loader.
Herndon, VA
I have never written a review, but after MONTHS of research and confusion about what washer to get, we finally settled on this 4.5 cu. ft. HE Kenmore and I am very pleased! We have always had Kenmore washers, but they never seem to make it to Consumer Reports faves. But the model before this one did, and I decided to give this one a try. I ruled out front load, even though they seem to get all the accolades, because of all the concerns about moldy doors, etc. We decided to try the HE top-load. It takes some getting used to, but not as much as I expected. After 2 months of using it, I AM SO HAPPY WITH THIS WASHER! BUY IT!! It holds a ton of clothes! I have 6 kids & I can fit one person's entire week's worth of laundry (a very full laundry basket) at one time--no problem! I have washed my queen comforter! I once fit about 12-14 towels at one time!! The clothes come out clean and smelling good. I have not had any issues with this machine or any clothes being destroyed. It helps to shake them out a bit before tossing them into the dryer. The cycles take a bit longer (~ 45-60 min.) than my regular top-loader, but you get used to it. I LOVE the window because it allows me to see how this type of machine works. I like that you can pause the machine if you want to add an item. It does have an express cycle if you want to wash something quickly, which does not seem to compromise the cleaning. And it is SUPER quiet! MUCH quieter than my other machine, and we have it next to our kitchen/family rm. My only two "complaints:" 1) It has a beeping sound to let you know when it is done, and I was hoping it had the more musical chiming alarms that other brands have. (Come on Kenmore--that would be easy to add to make this a perfect machine!!) 2) I LOVE doing laundry, and with this machine, I get so much done at once that I find myself looking for extra stuff to wash. So for all you who DON'T like doing laundry so often--this is the machine for you!

I was very skeptical about the high-efficiency models that did not have the conventional agitator. I chose this model because it has a "deep-water wash" option, and I was certain that I would use it all the time. The truth is, I feel like the clothes are clean without filling the tub with water. The cycles are longer than I was used to, but my clothes and bedding (even a king-size comforter) are getting clean and that's all I wanted. I've been very pleased with this model.
Tulare, CA

I returned my first Kenmore I purchased three days after receiving it because of the long 1 hour wash cycles. Then I repurchased this one with the EXPRESS cycle!!! I couldn't be happier!!! Love the see thru lid, express cycle and how quiet this machine is. AMAZING machine! Don't hesitate with this one!!! I also got a great deal on it! $637! Love this washer!!!!
Carlsbad, CA
via sears.com
I bought this machine this week, to replace my 15 year old Kenmore Elite machines; with the matching dryer. I have done to so many loads this week and it's the best! It has everything that my old machine had plus more. It's quiet, efficient, and does larger loads than my old machine. I would recommend this to everyone! I love it!!!

What is humiliating is not that DFID dispenses aid in India, but that the Indian state is incapable of providing for its own poor.
The modern aid budget is influence buying. The amount which actually arrives at the purported destination (after subtracting "taxes", "import duties", "handling fees", "consulting charges" etc.) is rather minuscule. That which does arrive also reduces pressure on the local government to provide the necessary services and resources.
As such the supposed philanthropy is the belated recognition that the UK can no longer afford the the military it would need to fulfil it's craving for power and influence. Yet as this article demonstrates, attempting to buy influence outright comes with it's own problems, not the least of which is the question whether the recipients are willing to take your commands as well as your cash.
Liked the article. Although most of the aid budget goes on the direct relief of poverty a huge amount can be achieved by properly directed technical assistance. The pre-Clare Short Know-How Fund did superb work in the CEE/CIS countries achieving a huge multiple of the relatively modest cost. I'm hoping that the new development Secretary will bring back its concepts
John Chown
"Rwanda ... [is] ... of no strategic interest for Britain ..."
Ha-ha, really?! The Establishment (Bagehot's bosses) has been giving this money for all this time purely out of the kindness of their heart? Somehow I find that a long stretch. Perhaps the financier oligarchy is growing concerned that the money isn't quite buying the level of influence and control that it was hoping for, the pesky fly-speck displaying intolerable signs of independence and the potential to lead others astray, leaving the powers that be no choice but to resort to disciplinary measures. Whips must be cracked to remind Africans who don't know their place that when the Establishment says "Jump!", they are to unquestioningly respond, "How high?" Without hesitation. Otherwise Rwanda might end up being the biggest fly-speck in the world!
Even a million peanuts given now will not compensate the jewels stolen in the history.
You remember the Kohinoor right?
Its the guilt in the history that may justify the peanut-distribution.
Hmm...what guilt? For kicking ass and keeping it on the neck for decades...or letting it happen!
Best revenge is strength (in this case would mean self-sufficiency). Or else the boot isn't really gone...is it?
It is unfortunate that the 'foreign aid' statistics fail to include the transfers from the British taxpayers to the people of Europe as a result of our membership of the EU. Surely these constitute 'aid' to 'foreigners'...

Prompt, Perfect and Professional – The salon is an oasis admist Rte 128. I experienced the salon with Buy With Me coupons and was very impressed with the professonal and knowledgeable staff. I have regular massages and immediately knew that Gary was an experienced masseuse. He found and worked at every knot in my neck, back and arms. The massage was followed by Jennifer's facial, which was the most relaxing time of my week. However, what impressed me the most was that everything was on time and no waiting around, although sitting of the couch and enjoying the complimentary tea and cookies was nice , too. Check it out. A very nice place to visit and be pampered.
Great all around – Beautiful BIG place. I've seen Katie four times for my color and cut. Love her! Sweet girl. She has a good eye and great suggestions. She always seems to be busy. It's sometimes hard for me to get an appointment with her (good sign I guess) The last time I was there I also saw Jessica for my eyebrows and thought she was very nice and professional. Overall, I have always left feeling really happy. It's a little on the expensive side but i feel like its worth it.
Waneeta The Great – I can't rave enough about Waneeta at Daryl Christopher. She is the best. Her facials are relaxing and effective. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience that she will put to use to give you the best results and the best looking skin possible. Her waxing is absolutely exceptional too. I have never met anyone who is as talented and produced such dramatic results.
Waneeta has a spirit and warmth about her that makes for a wonderful experience each time I am in her capable hands.
I recommend Waneeta to anyone who wants impeccable service and opportunity to meet a great lady.
Anna is the VERY best – I followed Anna Costa from Emerge salon and spa, and I think that I would follow her just about anywhere! Anna is the consummate professional; she listens closely to her clients, and she gives input as necessary. And the icing on the cake? She's just a great person to spend a few hours with! I learn something new every time i am in Anna's chair!
I feel completely confident leaving my "look" in Anna's hands (and I'm picky!). She has helped me find the most flattering hair style I have ever had, and my hair is very healthy, which hasn't always been the case. The best part, however, is that Anna has helped me to find a color that is certainly not mine but looks like it is. People often ask me whether or not my color is natural, which, in my book, is the t rue test of great color. I've even been stopped in public (on more than one occasion!) with questions about where I have my hair done. You can't beat Anna!
Needs help – Had been a client for several years in Wayland and was satisfied but mainly kept going back because the location was convenient and I liked my stylist personally.
Unfortunately, over time I began to feel taken for granted,
my stylist would run behind, which seemed to happen more and more often, the prices kept going up and after spending literally thousands of dollars there over the years I felt I should have been given some type of consideration when I was unhappy with her service periodically, especially as a client who needed to come in every 4 weeks for color and cut. My stylist really did not seem to pick up on the fact that I was unhappy and paying seventy dollars for a haircut alone that she literally could cut/trim in ten minutes because of its style seems absurd in this economy not to do everything possible to keep a good client happy. I decided to look elsewhere and realized that other salons are much more reasonable and flexible with prices (root touch up is not charged for the full price of a color like it is at D.C every four weeks) I actually spoke with the "manager" about my concerns and never heard back, and therefore, that tells me they do not care enough to hold on to me as a client so I have moved on.
I stayed a year longer than I should have, but did so out of loyalty but was not given the same consideration and now I have found a new stylist at another upscale salon
who is far more reasonable.
You would think in today's economy they would bend over backwards to keep their clients happy, especially a long term client, and I hope the owner takes a look at what is happening in Wayland as I think a big part of it is a lot of unhappy people are working there. Doesn't seem to be a lot of training going on and I know several of my friends and neighbors have tried DC and moved on a lot sooner than I did.
I hope they get their act together, and remember at the prices they charge the client should always come first.
Amazing!!!! – Becca is amazing! I had boring hair and I wanted a change and not only was she patient with working with what I was looking to do it came out perfect! The color is absolutely gorgeous and the cut is exactly like the picture I showed her.
Thank you Becca!!
Above The Rest !! – Today I went to try a new 'do.
Considering most of Newbury Streets a Zoo!
I decided to aim higher than the the street's level view.
Above the zoo a friend had recommended me to see a stylist Becca of Daryl Christopher Salon & Spa !
I called to schedule a appointment and received a pleasant voice on the line instead on a machine who fit me in with Becca ! When I arrived at the Salon the receptionist greeted me with a Smile and came out from the desk to hang up my coat and offer me refreshments ! Then Becca came to introduce herself and I was instantly at ease with her stylish sensibility and calming consultation . We decided to introduce some soft highlights to brighten up my face and some layers for height! Ya !!!!! Every other stylist always wants me straight and monotone . By the end of the service not only did Becca follow through , but gave me the best blowdry too! For the first time I booked my next appointment and called my friend for lunch to celebrate my new "do!
Thank You Becca !
The best facial and body treatment – I've been using Olga's services @ Daryl Christopher for a couple of years, and I can compare her work with other places I've been so far for facials and massages. Olga is a very knowledgeable esthetician with variety of skin treatments in her repertoire. Her strong and caring hands will make the lines on your face seem to disappear and will help you to restore the energy you've lost. Highly recommend for my friends and anyone who is looking for ways to relax.
WOW! – My wife's hairstylist (who she's been with for years) just moved to the west coast - and you would have thought the world was coming to an end. She put it off as long as she could but finally decided to give this guy Chris Kezik a chance at Daryl Christopher. I am so glad she did - when she walked out of the building she looked like a model! I have honestly never seen her look better, the cut is perfect for her, and you can tell she knows she looks GREAT! I'm not a big review writer, but I've gotta say - I'm glad my wife's former hairstylist moved away. Thanks Chris !
Becca McNab Rocks for Hair Styling – I was in Boston 2 weeks ago on business and was exploring Newbury St on my last day. Upon passing Daryl Christopher Salon I decided with some trepidation to have my hair styled before heading to the airport. I hadn't seen my husband in a week so wanted to look fabulous when I got off the plane.
The first thing you notice about Becca when you see her is her amazing sense of style. The next thing you notice is her warm and engaging personality... but the best part is how you look when you leave her chair... in a word FABULOUS! I didn't know my hair could look this good. I highly recommend Becca and only wish that she worked in my home town.
