Get over it, America.
Wall Street bankers make too much money. The latest example: Goldman Sachs says it has set aside $16.7 billion so far this year for compensation or about $530,000 per employee. Not bad for a company that a year ago received $10 billion in federal money as well as $12.9 billion from the governments bailout of American International Group Inc.
Maddening? Sure. But forcing Goldman or any other Wall Street firm to pay employees less wont help a single unemployed American find a job. It wont help a single homeowner who cant afford his mortgage. It wont help a single credit card user whose fees keep getting jacked up.
If you want something to really make you angry, though, consider this number: $224 million. Its a lot less than $16.7 billion but it could pack far more punch. Thats the amount the financial industry spent in the first half of this year to lobby Congress to water down regulations aimed at preventing another financial meltdown. And more money is expected to be on the way.
There is so much happening in the financial sector to be upset about. The bonuses are the least of it, said Barry Ritholtz, who writes the popular financial blog The Big Picture and is the author of the new book Bailout Nation. More importantly, we cant let the banks own Congress.
The worry is that the money used for lobbying could lead lawmakers to back down on their promises for reform.
The Obama administration and many members of Congress have told the public repeatedly over the last year that a regulatory overhaul was needed to protect us from another financial disaster, and their constituents back home are counting on them. Trillions of dollars in taxpayer funds have been pumped into the financial system to stabilize markets and prevent big institutions from failing.
But the lobbyists influence can already be seen.
Some potential powers have been stripped from the proposed Consumer Financial Protection Agency, which would be a federal watchdog to oversee areas such as mortgages and credit cards.
One requirement that was dropped would have forced banks to make standardized and straightforward plain vanilla mortgages available to customers along with other products. For instance, lenders would have had to offer borrowers mortgages with 30-year fixed rates if they also were going to sell adjustable-rate or interest-only loans.
Lenders also would have had to take additional measures to ensure that their communications with customers are not deceptive.
The House Financial Services Committee is overseeing the creation of the consumer agency. It also has made certain exemptions in a bill focused on tougher oversight of derivatives.
Derivatives are contracts between two or more parties, the value of which is determined by fluctuations in underlying assets like stocks, bonds, commodities and interest rates.
Companies use derivatives to hedge against risk, such as when airlines cover themselves against surging fuel prices. But they are also a means for financial speculation. A form of derivative known as a credit-default swap was partly blamed for the crisis that hit Wall Street last year.
The House bill would impose restrictions on derivatives, forcing companies for the first time to conduct what had been private transactions on regulated exchanges. Thats a positive.
But the bill also grants regulatory exemptions to companies that use derivatives for commercial use, which weakens the transparency of those transactions. Big industrial associations, including the Business Roundtable and U.S. Chamber of Commerce, had lobbied for those kinds of exemptions.
The House Financial Services Committee is one target of financial industry lobbyists, which have given more than $6 million to its members in 2009.
In fact, 27 of that House committees 71 members have received more than one-quarter of their total political contributions from the financial industry, according to a study by the Sunlight Foundation, a nonpartisan group that promotes government openness.
Its wrong to draw any cause and effect from that, said committee spokesman Steven Adamske, who pointed to other actions taken by the committee this year in areas like credit-card reform and predatory lending.
But there is certainly lots more lobbying money being put to work in Congress. The pace that the financial, insurance and real estate industries spent on lobbying during the first half of the year puts them on pace to meet last years record spending of nearly $460 million, according to the Center for Responsive Politics, a political watchdog group.
Employees and political action committees in those same industries have contributed more than $53 million this year to members of Congress and the political parties.
Lobbyists for financial industry have defended their actions, saying it is within their constitutional right to petition government leaders. Thats certainly true.
Its also crucial for lawmakers not to falter when it comes to reforming a financial system that broke last fall.

Filler for your new faces section.
Bunny Luv likes it rough. Mark Davis has no qualms about choking her and spitting on her (worry not, retailer: this is nothing like the now-defunct Rough Sex series), which proves to be a good thing in terms of heat, as the scene would have been pretty bland without it.
Susanna, a pretty brunette, takes a merciless d.p. plowing from Vince Vouyer and Mark Davis like a pro, although her screams of pleasure contain a strong hint of pain mixed in.

Dozens of people were waiting for the zombies to arrive.
The zombies were running a little late. They walk slow.
A group of folks decided to make a stand against the zombie hoard at the BART station.
Here they come
Poor, poor victims.
Zombie rights! Solidarity, brotherhood, brains!
Another hapless victim of the zombies...
Don't ever let the zombies pin you down. You'll get it.
Didn't these people read the zombie attack handbook?
Zombies, despite being undead, prefer to follow the laws of traffic and wait for the light to change before crossing the street.
These folks really got into it.
Zombies prefer to walk as opposed to wait for the bus. Slow and steady...
Jilted and out for brains...
What does it mean when the bride's dress is white and red?
The cyclists made a path for the zombies to walk.
more zombie walking...
It's never just one zombie -- they attack in groups.
Onward, zombie soliders!
Funny or horrible? You be the judge.
Ok, it's funny.
While the zombies carried on, so did Critical Mass.
Mmmm... fake blood...
You'd think the cyclists would be nice and offer a zombie a ride...
Zombie lesson 2 -- Aim for the head.
No cars got through this line of bikes
The bikes went on forever...
brrrrrrrains... ruff.
You got a zombie mob in my Critical Mass!
poor thing
Where are they headed?
You got Critical Mass in my zombie mob!
Zombies don't like Louis Vuitton. They prefer blood.
The zombies were attracted to the wide open spaces and the deals at Macy's.
The zombies didn't have much trouble going up the stairs.
Another hapless victim...
Seriously... did they have to play Thriller?
thats a lotta zombies
Zombies dont miss an opportunity to pose for cameras.
Zombies are remarkably social creatures. And happy.
zombies are very photogenic. they'll smile for your camera if you ask
zombies cross all demographic groups
some people really got their zombie on
zombies dont do tennis well
Don't mix zombies and sports
go ded people!
On the left, in the orange pants, you can see BJ and Tyler from Amazing Race 9. Zombie mobs bring out everybody.
All dead and nowhere to go...
No zombie mob is complete until someone gets married. Congrats random couple!
Someone better clean this up
Zombies are not the cleanest people.
What?! The blood wasn't real? For shame!
Even the famous hearts around Union Square got hit
or maybe it's a sign?
or maybe its corn syrup
Zombies like blood on everything, even store windows

Baltimore Ravens
Baltimore Ravens news, rumors and injuries
Ravens | Chris Moore impressing early
Sat, 30 Jul 2016 05:22:30 -0700
Baltimore Ravens WR Chris Moore has generated some buzz early in training camp because he has caught a 60-yard touchdown pass in each of the first two practices. Moore has received increased snaps during training camp because of the injuries to WRs Steve Smith (Achilles') and Breshad Perriman (knee).
Fantasy Tip: The Ravens appear to be set with their top three receivers if Smith and Perriman are healthy, but Moore could compete for the No. 4 receiver job. Owners in most leagues probably can pass on Moore during their draft, but he could be a waiver wire option if he produces early in the season.

Ravens | Benjamin Watson adjusting to new team
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 19:14:07 -0700
Baltimore Ravens TE Benjamin Watson said he was still working on his timing after the first day of training camp Thursday, July 28, and at one point, he lined up on the outside in a four-receiver set.
Fantasy Tip: Watson isn't going to be able to duplicate the numbers he put up last year while in New Orleans, and he isn't worth drafting outside of leagues that require two tight ends.
Comment () | Share: | Source: The Baltimore Sun - Don Markus
Ravens | Dennis Pitta wants to start
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 13:07:53 -0700
Baltimore Ravens TE Dennis Pitta (hip) said he wants to win the starting tight end job during training camp. He said he does not believe that he has lost a step even though he missed the last two years because of hip problems.
Fantasy Tip: Owners will need to monitor the situation during the preseason to see how Pitta is used in the offense. He was able to post solid numbers before he suffered his hip injuries but is now a risky option for fantasy owners. He is competing for playing time with Benjamin Watson and Maxx Williams, so he may not be a great option in some fantasy leagues.

Free-agent OT Jake Long (Falcons) declined to sign an injury waiver Friday, July 29, and will not sign with the Baltimore Ravens. Long texted ESPN saying that his knee feels great, was enthused by Dr. James Andrews' review of his knee this week, and he looks forward to playing this season.

Fri, 29 Jul 2016 08:55:22 -0700
Baltimore Ravens TE Crockett Gillmore (hamstring) left practice Friday, July 29, with a hamstring injury that will require an MRI.
Fantasy Tip: Gillmore has ample competition to stave off, and this will only compound it. He's merely a watch-list player for now.

Ravens | Steve Smith's injury was more severe
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 07:20:08 -0700
Updating previous reports, Baltimore Ravens WR Steve Smith (Achilles') suffered a double rupture of his Achilles' last season, which surgeon, Robert Anderson, said was the first one he had ever seen.
Fantasy Tip: Smith's tenacity and will has always been great. However, "Father Time" is undefeated. At 37, coming back from this catastrophic injury, it looks really bleak that Smith can be a dependable fantasy receiver. He'll be in the WR4 mix, but that's an area where you can find receivers with upside.

Ravens | Two BAL receivers idle
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 06:40:27 -0700
Baltimore Ravens WR Steve Smith (Achilles') and WR Breshad Perriman (knee) are out of practice Friday, July 29.
Fantasy Tip: Smith still holds clout in fantasy, but at 37, it's hard to envision a return to anything more than desperation WR3 or a high-end WR4. Perriman has the talent worth rolling the dice on as a WR5.

Ravens | Three Ravens RBs sit out
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 06:38:14 -0700
Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee), RB Trent Richardson (knee) and RB Lorenzo Taliaferro (foot) are out of practice Friday, July 29.
Fantasy Tip: Dixon is the only one of the trio that probably has a spot on the roster. T-Rich and Taliaferro are competing with others for the final running back spot. Neither is worth much fantasy consideration yet with so much depth and uncertainty on the roster. Dixon is in the RB5 mix.

Ravens | Mike Wallace passes conditioning test
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 06:16:53 -0700
Baltimore Ravens WR Mike Wallace passed his conditioning test Friday, July 29, and he is taking part in practice.
Fantasy Tip: Wallace has a sizeable opportunity with the Ravens, who could lean heavily on him in the slot. He turns 30 in a couple of days, and this could be his last chance. He's in the WR5 flyer mix in fantasy.

Ravens | Mike Wallace goes to NFI list
Thu, 28 Jul 2016 17:08:38 -0700
Baltimore Ravens WR Mike Wallace (undisclosed) was placed on the Active/Non-Football Injury list Thursday, July 28.
Fantasy Tip: It's unclear what Wallace's ailment is, but he did fail a conditioning test recently. His status will need to be monitored throughout training camp, but Wallace shouldn't be drafted as more than a WR5 in standard formats in a deep Baltimore wide receiver corps.

Ravens | Kenneth Dixon day-to-day
Thu, 28 Jul 2016 13:39:04 -0700
Updating previous reports, Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) is considered day-to-day because of his medial collateral ligament sprain. Head coach John Harbaugh said Dixon could return to practice as early as Friday, July 29.
Fantasy Tip: The Ravens probably will give Dixon a few days off, but it appears he likely will be back on the field at some point next week. He will be fighting for the No. 3 running back job during training camp and could be a late-round option in deeper leagues.

Ravens | Joe Flacco happy with practice
Thu, 28 Jul 2016 13:37:41 -0700
Baltimore Ravens QB Joe Flacco (knee) said he felt comfortable during practice Thursday, July 28, but wishes he was able to complete more passes. He did not try to run during practice but did move around the pocket. It is not known if he will receive any playing time in the first preseason game or if the team will hold him out until the third preseason game.
Fantasy Tip: Flacco probably will not play much in the preseason but will be ready for the start of the regular season. He will have solid tight ends to work with in 2016 but the wide receiver corps has been struggling with injuries. Flacco should be a No. 2 quarterback in most fantasy leagues.

Calls for proposals :: Research and innovation funding in Black Sea region now available through Horizon 2020
Research and innovation funding in Black Sea region now available through Horizon 2020
Deadline: 29 April 2014
(11/12/2013) Horizon 2020, the New EU Framework Programme launched this year and running until 2020, provides a wide array of funding opportunities in the research and innovation domain. Its first work programme (2014-2015) includes a targeted call for the Black Sea region.
The proposed funding amounts to EUR 1.5 million and all the Black Sea countries are strongly encouraged to apply.

I'm trying to write an MLA citation for Membrane for a school project, and I would like to know where in Canada you are located for that portion of the citation. I can't find a physcial address on your website, and just saying Canada in the citation is not proper form.
Thank you.

Hello; Two and a half months ago, I submitted my manuscript entitled "To Pluck a Crow." I am soon to go away for a holiday, to a location outside of cell and computer tower range.
Can you tell me whether the manuscript has been evaluated, and/or offer any comments to me please? It is fast approaching the three month deadline in which I was told I could contact you, had I not heard from you.
Thanks so much for the opportunity to submit.
Kind regards,

IRD releases offshore data approach
Some great news today in respect to storage of data offshore. New Zealand's Inland Revenue Department has released its Statement of Standard Practice on the "Retention of business records in electronic format, application to store records offshore and application to keep records in Maori" (SPS13/01). We'll link to this document when it becomes available online.
Of course at Xero we are particularly interested in the offshore storage aspect of the document. This has been a topic of discussion for some time and was a classic case of the legislation lagging behind the technology.
For those newcomers, the Tax Administration Act 1994 (TAA) was amended on 2 November 2012 to enable the Commissioner to authorise "persons" (like Xero and other SaaS providers) to hold, on behalf of taxpayers, records outside New Zealand.(see Section 22 of the TAA). The IRD have now released the Statement of Standard Practice setting out their requirements to enable them to provide authorisation under the Act.
Inland Revenue have adopted a common sense approach and the Commissioner has some discretion to review applications on a case by case basis.
Xero will be submitting our application for approval on behalf of all of our New Zealand customers this week, so there is nothing you need to do.
We will keep you informed about our progress.
UPDATE 27 March: SPS 13/01 has been released online

thanks for that Paul, appreciate it
I've always been curious as to why the application and data is hosted off-shore for NZ users. I appreciate bigger picture it's cheaper with better network infrastructure but for NZ users running secure sessions it can be noticeably slower especially with the very low UFB uptake or availability. Have there been considerations of mirroring NZ data in NZ for performance similar to how Google operate?
Where is the particular application located to complete for requesting approval to host offshore? Also, where can I obtain a copy of this statement of standard practice since it is not yet found online?
@Rick – As at this morning(14 March) the IRD haven't updated their website with the documents. We are monitoring the site and will provide a link in this Blog as soon as possible. However just to clarify – if you are a customer of Xero you don't have to do anything with respect to your Xero data, we are applying for approval to hold this data offshore on behalf of all our NZ customers.
Has Xero now been authorised to hold records outside New Zealand? Obviously it's great that took this step but its a few months later and I can't find anything to say it's all fine and dandy.
@Rob – We applied for approval back in March and are still waiting on the IRD. It's a new process and its taking them a while. I have been following up with them on a regular basis and I will update the Blog once the approval comes through .

Anais Mitchell
The charismatic Vermont singer-songwriter became a critical phenomenon in 2010 when her album 'Hadestown' (featuring Bon Iver and Ani DiFranco) was included in many critic's Top 10 albums of the year list. Since the release of 2012's 'Young Man in America', Billy Bragg and Bon Iver have covered her songs and the latter asked her to support him on his US tour. The Sunday Times named 'Young Man' their CD of the Week, hailing it as "music of rare boldness and reach" and "a sensational album".

Heaven. Hell. One minute.
You have no idea what he's been through. None of us do. No disrespect, but Bruce Weber's moment came in an instant, without warning, and ended tragically. Plus, Weber is 48 -- not 19.
Everything was right, for once in his life. Sports Illustrated had dissected it, given him the literary equivalent of a SportsCentury segment. He was on Jerry Stackhouse pace, J.R. Reid status, on the verge of never not being mentioned as a living legend in the (sorry, UConn) college basketball capital of the world. He'd listened to Tupac, loved Jay-Z. All eyes were on him because his gift was too often his curse. He was the most feared man player in unprofessional basketball. Then it happened.
"Your moms has ... "
Sometimes, dealing with cancer is easier for those who have it than it is for those who love the ones with the diagnosis. The cancer, for Rashad McCants' mother, was discovered in December. A sick Christmas gift. Since then, two surgeries. The doctors say it's all gone, but it never is. Her, she's good. Him? He's a whole 'nother story.
"You know how kids are; they think cancer means death," Brenda Muckelvene says of her son. "When it really doesn't at all."
Tell that to his body, tell that to his mind. Tell that to the infection that ran through his intestinal system and kept him out of the last four games of the season and took 10 pounds off his frame in less than two weeks. It's like secondhand chemo. But Clemson and Georgia Tech didn't care. Not supposed to.
That's why the one minute will sit with him until Friday, when the tournament begins for him. Heaven. Hell. He survived it. But to go further, he has to return to he.
Last weekend, Roy Williams had a decision to make in less than a minute. He knew he had the most talented player in the country on his bench, but is the conference title that important when something bigger is part of the plan? Williams can't look at anything other than Rashad's eyes. They are more than windows to the kid's soul; they are what will determine the fate and future of the University of North Carolina basketball program over the next three weeks. So with one minute left in the game against G-Tech, the game that would put him in the conference finals -- which in some parts of town is bigger than winning the national championship -- for the first time in his Chapel Hill reign, Williams knew the calling.
UNC down, 76-72. McCants stood at the free-throw line. The ref handed him the ball three times. He missed two -- just as Darius Washington did for Memphis. The difference for McCants: more time on the clock. And a higher power intervened on his second miss, gave UNC the ball on a turnover. On the left side of the court, from 23 feet away, Rashad released. Nylon. 76-75. Down one. Thirteen seconds left. Timeout called. Heaven. The Man is back.
Yet Rashad stood on the court, no smile. Angry that he missed those two free throws.
With 4.6 seconds left, 78-75 the score, McCants made a curl around a pick set exclusively for him. In the exact same spot where he'd found Heaven less than 12 seconds earlier, he found Hell. Iron. He stood there as Tech celebrated around him, hands on hips, flashing back to the last month of his life. He grabbed the front of his jersey and put it in his mouth and followed his teammates through the tunnel. Afterward, he only had one thing to say: "You know ... that was supposed to go in."
Think Bobby Brown. Think Mike Tyson. Think that Rashad McCants is college basketball's answer to those two. Misunderstood. Manic-depressive? Moody. Unpredictable. Issue-oriented. Bipolar? Think that he is the one player who will win or lose the entire tournament for the Tar Heels. Think of the chance they'd have without him. Think none.

Environmental good production in the optimum activities portfolio of a risk averse-farmer
An analytical framework is proposed for analysis of environmental good production by farmers in the case of price uncertainty. Environmental good production contracted by means of agri-environmental agreements is treated as a riskless option in the farmer's production activities portfolio. It is shown that agri-environmental agreements aiming at biodiversity competing with beef production are likely to increase management intensity on the non-enrolled land, and that the effect of the payments for these agreements on the number of hectares enrolled is ambiguous. It is also demonstrated that an increase in the output price variability and/or a decrease in the level of decoupled subsidies will induce an increase (decrease) in the area enrolled in agreements aiming at biodiversity competing with (complementary to) beef production. The obtained results are illustrated by means of efficient frontiers generated using mathematical programming farm level models of suckler cow farms in Monts du Cantal, in France.

I am guessing the acquisition would be done at a price higher than $4.50.Any guesses?
yep...$5.50 Hray won't let loose for much less!
My big dog, Baron, is thinking USD10.He lays around and thinks all day. Sometimes it's hard to figure what he is thinking, but if you can, it usually pays off.
BTW, Baron owns 5500 shares.

Released: Feb 01st, 2004
Running Time: 87
Director: Chi Chi LaRue
Company: Vivid Entertainment Group
Cast: Wendy Devine, Lezley Zen, Two Kae, Glen, Dee (I), Sharon Kane, Dillon Day, Eric Masterson, Sunsrise Adams, Tristan Seagal, Evan Stone
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Feature
Sunrise Adams fans will want this despite that annoying plot and editing.
A run of the mill plot that has holes so big that Lexington Steele couldn't plug them detracts from some incredible sexual performances by Sunrise Adams who proves you can take the girl out of gonzo - but you can't take the gonzo out of the girl.
Adams is just a demon when it comes to giving head, as she demonstrates in the opening scene of this porn-within-a-porn meets Single White Female. Sunrise is a study of feminine prowess - but then we get a cut away shot of Eric Masterson playing a geeky director who is even more annoying because we cut away from something we were very interested in watching. No one needs to know that this a movie set yet. No one cares what the fucking plot is - you've got Sunrise doing what she does best, and that should absolutely be the focal point of the scene.
When Evan Stone comes on her face and Sunrise freaks out, that's when you slip in the geeky director. His first appearance could have been trying to talk Sunrise out of walking. See in this video, Sunrise is the current "it" girl of porn - and she walks off the set in the middle of production.
The geeky director can't just call Jim South and order another girl - he would have to start production from scratch - and there's no budget for that. In a deus ex machina the director finds Ava, who looks exactly like Sunrise. Well she will with a little makeup and a new, sluttier wardrobe. And Ava, who has never been in porn before, just goes along with it. No questioning, No explanations. She just makes a leap of faith.
The story runs it course with Sunrise and Ava (who are both played by Sunrise Adams) finally meeting and having it out. Then we cut to Ava giving Sunrises' boyfriend the best sex he's had in years. Pre-nom Sunrise Adams and Dillon Day for Best Sex Scene - Couples.

NEVER before have so many power poles been available to those fishing commercials – then again, the carp in most fisheries of this type aren't exactly wasting away. So Maver's launch of the third generation of its Invincible pole at the recent Big One tackle show was understandably well received. Me? I couldn't wait to get out on the bank ...

That's loyalty for you.So I've little doubt that ...

It's interesting to read all the blog entries and news items around Arcs of Fire (AOF) and the Tablet Game SDK. Lots of people questioning what is it, why is it, and why aren't we doing other things that some think are more important. All I can tell you is our developer evangelism plan has many facets to it, as it should, and that AOF and the Game SDK are one part of that plan…
AOF will be a simple casual game, it's being developed by our partners at 3Leaf Development. Sean and his team are building AOF as a sample application to show off the Game SDK that his team is building for us. It's cool, it's fun and believe me we're not trying to compete with any of the gaming systems out there and/or turn the tablet into the next generation game device. While it would be nice it's not our goal.
Why build a game SDK? We're at a point in the technical skills enablement of our new and existing tablet developers that we need to bring more end to end scenarios to market as reference applications. Besides AOF we are working on some other more traditional enterprise applications that you'll hear about soon.
The main point of emphasis with AOF is to introduce new input functionality made possible by the pen like pressure and velocity, controlling direction by movement of the pen and using pen gestures. We'll show how to program in an environment where the screen can rotate and we'll also get into some of the new component technology from our V1.7 SDK like the Real Time Stylus. AOF and the Game SDK will support some of the newer initiatives of the Mobile Platforms Division including being power aware and responding to events like system suspend or hibernate.
It's an educational tool, a way to enhance developer knowledge with tablet and its unique feature set as well as a way to evangelize the platform to new developers who write casual games when they're not building complex software systems at work. Join us at http://www.arcsoffire.com and lets see how creative and innovative we can get, perhaps we will displace xbox one day with your help J.
I really want to see a football simulation game come out of this where I can setup my plays and see my x's and o's travel down the grid iron. I'd personally send it to Mr. Gibbs. (I can't believe they lost that game today…)

Quality in gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy matters. Translating quality concepts into practice can be challenging which is why ASGE has developed the Improving Quality & Safety in You Endoscopy Unit course to educate physician and non–physician unit staff on how to create a high–quality endoscopy unit. Through a mix of didactic lectures and interactive sessions taught by leading experts in the field, participants will gain a greater understanding of endoscopy unit quality and safety. The content of the course is dynamic, addressing the fundamentals of quality and safe practice as well as emerging trends and evidence. In addition to advancing their knowledge in endoscopy unit quality and safety, participants in this course will be prepared to apply for the ASGE Endoscopy Unit Recognition Program or renew their current participation.
"Performance improvement and patient safety are the key initiatives in today's health care climate. With the myriad of changes coming down the regulatory, patient safety and quality improvement pikes, I don't see how anyone charged with running an endoscopy unit can keep afloat without the assistance of a professional society and a community of likeminded physicians and nurses. The ASGE Improving Quality and Safety in Your Endoscopy Unit course provides an intimate learning environment to hear what thoughts leaders are thinking and your colleagues are saying. This one day course is designed to be interactive and covers a broad array of quality improvement strategies, including infection control, best practices in sedation, accreditation guidance and plenty of stories about how we all learn from our mistakes. With a diverse faculty of experienced physician and nurses who are still in the trenches, participants will leave both with an enhanced tool box and more confidence in their leadership roles."
David H. Robbins, MD, FASGE
Medical Director
Manhattan EndoscopyNew York, New York
"ASGE's "Improving Quality and Safety in your Endoscopy Unit" is a dynamic course in which you will learn hands-on, practical tools for assessing and improving quality in your endoscopy unit. We engage the audience such that you learn not only from the expert presenters and panel discussions, but also from your fellow attendees as they share their own stories and questions.

Justin Bieber Paparazzi Assault Case: Will the Singer's Friends Testify?
If reports are to be believed, Justin's friends are getting pulled into his on-going paparazzo assault case.
If reports are to be believed, Justin's friends are getting pulled into his on-going paparazzo assault case.
Jelena fans, it's that time again, where we get ready to analyze grainy photos and video to tell if Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are back together once more.
Usher has released a statement in regards to Justin Bieber's recently leaked videos showing a young Justin using racist language. The R&B star defends Bieber and labels him "not a racist."
Kim Kardashian and Justin Bieber rule their own separate corners of the social media universe. Each has her or his legions of fans that will like and share just about everything the two stars post on Twitter and Instagram. Up until recently, Justin Bieber held the record for the photo with the most ever 'likes' on Instagram, but Kim swept in with her hugely anticipated wedding with Kanye West and stole the prize. Who do you think is most deserving of the record?
Before Justin Bieber, the king of the pranksters was none other than 'Jackass' star Steve-O -- but now the two have teamed up to bring us one ridiculous clown pranking video.
Justin Bieber teased his fans on Instagram a snippet of a new song titled 'It's Working' and fans can't help but wonder if Biebs singing about Selena Gomez.
Robert Pattinson has been starring on big screens since he was a teen, making him much more away of the dangers of being a young celebrity and growing up in the spotlight.
Justin Bieber's fashion choices have sometimes been a little questionable (remember his saggy, low-riding pants and that skirt-like ensemble?), but the Biebs looked better than ever this weekend in Cannes, France, donning a smart navy blue blazer over a white, button-down shirt and jeans. And with his hair neatly parted and slicked to the side, the singer looked incredibly handsome as he attended a party on a yacht.
That is one lucky Belieber! Justin Bieber (accidentally) planted a kiss on a fan's lips after she quickly turned her head when he went in to smooch her cheek.
Austin Mahone is at the top of his game.
The 18-year-old singer, who recently teamed up with Allstate to promote safe driving for teens, is releasing his highly anticipated new EP 'The Secret' this month and is getting ready to head out on the road headlining a summer tour. Oh, and he just recorded a song written by Justin Bieber, and Mahomies + Beliebers can't stop freaking out.
The 'MMM Yeah' singer chatted with PopCrush about all of his exciting new ventures, including new details about the JB track, his upcoming EP and even what the word is on a full-length album.
Are Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande collaborating together on a new track? After teasing fans on Twitter last night, Grande confirms this morning to Ryan Seacrest that yes, the two pop stars are indeed working on a duo together!
Selena Gomez seems to be going through some kind of social media cleanse. MTV reports the 'Come & Get It' singer has unfollowed her on-and-off boyfriend Justin Bieber and her one-time bestie Taylor Swift on Instagram and has purged her Instagram account of all snaps with Kendall and Kylie Jenner, despite the fact that the threesome were all spotted looking super close at Coachella. What gives?

Recently I was rolling thru some older posts, and it appears thru XMLRPC/ATOM - someone/something was injecting various ads, comments, etc. into the code with it set to be hidden "display:none" (stopped after I shut-off XMLRPC/ATOM Publishing Options) - I did a quick search, over 1000 posts are hit, never really noticed before so apparently they had plenty of time to have at it.
A quick fix is to roll back to the original post date, revision control seemed to hold and I can go one by one, but I was curious if anyone knew of a plugin or could suggest some code/reading on maybe mass reverting posts back to their original creation? or even just a dialog to mass-manage revisions?
Again not against doing some work myself, just could use a wee bit of guidance as my PHP knowledge is borderline between helpful and dangerous :)

The landscape of the city has changed due to the tornadoes, so the landscape of the school system needs to change temporarily until the city is rebuilt. I don't understand your thinking when kids have lost their schools and maybe their homes, too. Shame on you for not welcoming these students to your school.

I have come across this problem before.It seems that certain Software Programs will instruct Outlook Express instead of Microsoft Outlook.
*I am using a "Brother"printer and the software is control center 3. *I require that the program scan a document and send it using Microsoft Outlook *In this case the default Mail program is Microsoft Outlook.
*When I go into the software and select the properties and mail sending options:
-It only gives me an Outlook Express Option. -There is a dropdown to find a program to use. -It obviously seems to be looking for an exe. extension. -When I find Microsoft Outlook I cannot find an exe. file to select.
It seems like a limitation in some Software programs. Please can someone give me some feedback?

Taiwan's China Development Offers Up to $1.9 Billion for KGI
China Development Financial Holding Co., Taiwan's largest venture capital company, bid as much as NT$54.6 billion ($1.9 billion) for KGI Securities Co. targeting the island's No. 2 brokerage to boost its presence in China.
China Development offered NT$5.5 in cash and 1.2 of its own shares for each share of KGI, valuing the deal at NT$16.71 per share, the Taipei-based company said in an exchange filing yesterday after the market closed. That's 47 percent higher than KGI's closing price of NT$11.40 in Taipei yesterday.
Taiwan's 10th-largest publicly traded financial company by market value said it will use a merger with its own brokerage, Grand Cathay Securities Corp., to push into China where it plans to set up yuan-denominated private equity funds and expand its securities business. Declines in technology company investments have dragged China Development to two straight quarterly losses and a 33 percent share price drop last year.
"Their aim is for the merger to help them expand in the China market, yet it won't help their share trading business in a meaningful way," said Eric Chang, an analyst at Jih Sun Securities Co. in Taipei. "It could help their private equity and underwriting businesses in China."
Open Market Purchase
KGI climbed 6.6 percent, its daily limit, to close at NT$12.15 in Taipei today. That's the stock's biggest jump since Jan. 30. China Development advanced 4.7 percent to NT$8.74.
China Development plans to buy 50.1 percent to 100 percent of the Taipei-based securities broker in the open market and will issue as many as 3.9 billion new shares as part of the transaction, it said today.
KGI had 7.7 percent of Taiwan market trading in February, trailing Yuanta Financial Holding Co., according to data posted on the Taiwan Stock Exchange website. The company had 3,143 employees at the end of December and has acquired five brokers in the past ten years, according to a company report.
KGI was Taiwan's fourth-largest underwriter last year, with 101 deals valued at $3.3 billion, while Grand Cathay ranked eighth, handling 108 transactions for $2.6 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
KGI's net income last year dropped 36 percent to NT$1.98 billion after brokerage commissions, which account for 61 percent of revenue, declined 14 percent, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Market Share Boost
Combining KGI with Grand Cathay will lift China Development's share of the Taiwan brokerage market from 1.63 percent to 9.5 percent, it said in a statement on its Website. Its banking unit, China Development Industrial Bank, has a 30 percent share of Taiwan's private equity and venture capital market, it said.
China Development "is working with local governments and major institutional investors in Mainland China to set up yuan private equity funds as well as leasing businesses," it said in the statement. Eddy Chang, spokesman for China Development, and Sheng Chia-chen of KGI, didn't return calls seeking comment.
"The purchase of KGI would help China Development reduce its reliance on stock investments to drive profits," said Tina Chen, an analyst at President Securities Corp. in Taipei.
China Development, which holds stakes in more than 300 companies, posted losses in the third and fourth quarters of last year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"Our investments were overly exposed Taiwan's technology industry," it said in a Feb. 15 presentation explaining the losses.

Measuring the Impact of Household Economic Strengthening Interventions for OVC
Project Description
Because of the nature of the emergency response to the OVC challenge, initial programming did not collect information on the outcome and impact of interventions. Where outcome measures have been proposed, there is insufficient evidence to know which indicators provide the best information about program achievement and the most appropriate guidance for future programming. The Orphans and Vulnerable Children Comprehensive Research Project (OVC-CARE) is attempting to answer the question: "What has been the impact of household economic strengthening interventions on OVC well-being as well as on household welfare?"
Working in partnership with Christian Aid in Kenya, the CGHD is studying a "Savings and Loan" approach to household economic strengthening which has become popular in East Africa. The information being generated from this study will be very useful to national governments, donor governments, and other partners to better understand how and if household economic strengthening activities affect households and OVC. The study will also make recommendations about impact indicators which can be used in other OVC program settings.
This project is one activity of the CGHD's Orphans and Vulnerable Children—Comprehensive Action Research project (OVC-CARE).

Every physician who makes a practice of including a retinal study in the general physical examination of his patient has probably, like myself, been troubled by the necessity of converting the patient's room into a dark room for a satisfactory study of the eyegrounds. In order to overcome this difficulty it occurred to me that I could convert my ophthalmoscope into a miniature dark room. This was accomplished, as shown in the illustration, by attaching an aluminum eyecup to both sides of the revolving lens system of the instrument. The inside of the cups was painted with a dull finish black paint, which absorbs the side reflections from the wheat grain bulb, so that there is less reflected light to dazzle the eye of both the patient and the examiner. Furthermore, extraneous light is cut off when the eyecups are applied to the eyes of both the examiner and the patient.

The Raven (2012)
Brilliant- Must watch
I am a big fan in general of "WhoDunnit" movies, and I was keen to see what 'The Raven' had in store. I went in assuming that it would be like any other 'Jack the Ripper'/19th century killer movie and that it would predictable. I was right in my assessment, but inspite of these cliché's the Raven was a brilliant film mainly because of the following:
- The movie was beautifully shot. It has a very 'sleepy hollow' feeling throughout. - The use of Poe's work and the poetic climax was excellent. I enjoyed this bit a lot as it left me with things to think about after watching the film, something which is testimony to the fact that the film made an impact. - Great character development of John Cusack/Poe. Made for a dark, mysterious man with a twisted view of the world. Exciting. - There were many tense moments, great chases and small pieces of puzzle solving( like in console games) making for small mysteries within one large mystery, thus keeping you engrossed all the way.
To summarise, the Raven was riotous ride through Victorian era type settings, keeps you on the egde of your seat, the mini puzzles keep you busy and the plot and character development( Poe) was excellent, Definitely worth a watch and an 8 out of ten for me.
P.S. The film has gore so if you can't stand that, don't watch it. It's not a Hostel or a SAW, but there is gore and blood.
Brake (2012)
Boring and predictable
This movie is so boring especially if you have seen Saw and Buried(oh and the Recruit). The beginning is so similar to Saw that I couldn't sit through it. The end was predictable and without giving away too much I can say that it was really what one expects. All in all, a failure as movie, not because it's bad as a standalone thriller, but because it's not the first of it's kind and borrows too much from it's predecessors.
To sum up:Originality in the script is the big issue here. However, if you have not seen the other movies I mentioned, you may like this one.( Saw is way way way better though)
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011)
While Tomas Alfredson came up with a directorial gem in 'Let the right one in',with Tinker,Tailor, Soldier, Spy he disappoints. First, let me start with the positives. The movie has a brilliant cast, all of whom deliver good performances. For me, that's where the good part ceases. After watching the film, I felt that it was an OK sort of film and I do watch a lot of offbeat films and films in general. The reason why this movie disappoints are the following: -Poor musical score- The trailer is awesome with a great score. Don't expect that in the movie though.Some good tension building music could have really made this a much better movie. -I knew who the mole was at the beginning of the movie. I mean, choose somebody who's not so well known as the mole. Once you have a big name amongst the options, it's apparent that he is the mole( why else would he take the role?) -In an attempt to make it 'spyish', the movie fails to keep the audience engaged. -Lastly, when the mole is shown to the audience, there was no drum roll, no suspense. It was so boringly revealed. That was the whole point of the movie, Mr Alfredson.
All in all, this movie deserves a 5, nothing more.
Drive (2011)
Outstanding Movie
I put off watching this movie because I thought it might have been just a rehash of other car flicks like gone in 60 seconds and the transporter. Drive is nothing like that. It is a brilliant film and surpassed my expectations. The music is amazing, the acting is brilliant and the direction is superb. It is a thriller more on the lines of History of Violence, slow, brooding and allows for character buildup. The plot is predictable but done so differently that it keeps you engrossed. Ryan Gosling delivers a sensational performance, truly Oscar worthy if this was any other film. All in all, a great film,but not recommended for family viewing as there is some violence.

When I create partitions on a new SSD using Windows XP64 SP2, are they properly aligned?
The answer for XP was NO, so I'm having another question: How about (up to date) Ubuntu? According to ubuntuforums the answer seems to be YES using diskpar. Could anybody kindly confirm?
The long story:
I know, there may be problems with partitions on SSD because of misalignment. I've found many articles about it, e.g., this one: and descriptions how to fix it. However, it all includes downloading some software, and it's probably unnecessary.
