China National Chemical Corp. offered to buy a controlling stake in Makhteshim-Agan Industries Ltd., the largest maker of generic agricultural chemicals, in a deal valuing the Israeli company at $2.4 billion.
ChemChina, as the company is known, agreed to acquire 7 percent of Makhteshim from Koor Industries Ltd. and offered to buy all the publicly traded stock to bring its stake to 60 percent, Makhteshim said today. The purchase price, based on current dollar exchange rates and taking into account some employee options, is 19.98 shekels a share, or 18 percent more than the stock's closing price in Tel Aviv yesterday.
Makhteshim, based in Airport City outside Tel Aviv, jumped 6.8 percent today. Surging demand for raw materials in China to power the world's fastest-growing major economy has prompted companies to make acquisitions beyond oil and gas industries and explore takeovers of agriculture and chemical assets. State-owned Sinochem Group, China's largest fertilizer trader, earlier this year considered a rival bid to BHP Billiton Ltd.'s $40 billion offer for Potash Corp., people with knowledge of the matter said in October.
"It looks like the deal is about to close and we believe this offer will be received by the shareholders because the Chinese are paying such a high premium," Guil Bashan, an analyst at IBI in Tel Aviv, said by telephone. "This is good news for Makhteshim and for Koor."
Market Share
Before today, Makhteshim had declined 6.6 percent this year. The stock rose 1.14 shekels to 18.04 shekels at the 4:30 p.m. close of trading in Tel Aviv, valuing the company at 7.85 billion shekels ($2.2 billion). Koor jumped 9.9 percent to 83.60 shekels.
Under the deal, Koor would receive a $960 million non-recourse loan, which will be backed by Makhteshim shares, and may be redeemed in cash or in shares. The loan means Koor "essentially has a put option on close to another $1 billion worth of Makhteshim shares because if it doesn't want to pay back it can just pay with shares," Bashan said.
Robert Lu, a spokesman for Beijing-based ChemChina, didn't answer calls to his office. The transaction is likely to be completed by the third quarter of 2011, pending approval by Makhteshim shareholders and Chinese regulators, the Israeli company said.
Nufarm Fallout
China, home to more than 1.3 billion people, is the world's largest consumer of foods including pork, soybeans and rice. The nation, set to pass Japan this year to become the second-biggest economy, became a net importer of corn in 2009 for the first time in 14 years after drought damaged crops. The city of Shanghai, with more than 20 million residents, has a population almost triple Israel's.
ChemChina, the nation's second-biggest chemical company, has 158.7 billion yuan ($24 billion) of assets, according to its website. The state-owned company, with 10 listed subsidiaries in industries ranging from pesticides to plastics, tried to buy Australia's Nufarm Ltd. in 2007 to create the world's largest supplier of generic farm chemicals before the deal collapsed.
Generic companies like Makhteshim produce copies of top-selling insecticides once patents have expired. Makhteshim, which sells its crop-protection products in more than 100 countries, has a 5 percent market share in the global crop-protection market, according to the company's website. Its products include herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides. Makhteshim operates manufacturing plants in Israel, Brazil, Colombia, Spain and Greece.
Non-Recourse Loan
Basel, Switzerland-based Syngenta AG is the world's biggest maker of agricultural chemicals.
Makhteshim, which posted losses in two of the past four quarters, said on Sept. 2 it canceled talks to buy U.S.-based Albaugh Inc. for about $1 billion. It has been looking to boost profit after insecticide prices declined because the global recession hurt demand for food.
Koor, which is controlled by Nochi Dankner's IDB Holding Corp. and Discount Investment Corp., would own 40 percent of Makhteshim, according to today's statement.
Israel and China established diplomatic relations in 1992. Israel's biggest exports to China are agricultural technology and electronics, and its major imports from the country are machinery and textiles.
Until the Makhteshim agreement, Israel had been largely "under China's radar" in terms of investment, said Ornit Avidar, a former commercial attaché at Israel's consulate in Hong Kong, and now a partner at China Israel Value Capital, a private-equity fund in Herzliya, Israel.
The deal is significant because while "many foreigners take into account the political consequences of investing in Israel, the Chinese separate between politics and business," she said.

A new stream of blog (that sounds vaguely obscene) has began to flow through the wilderness of the interweb. But it's not a wild and chaotic brook, rather a finely chiseled flume. It meanders, certainly, but along a pleasing and picturesque path… er… … Blog Flume, is a new blog (what else?) launched recently ago by Alvin Buenaventura, Jonathan Bennett, Tim Hensley, Todd Hignite and Ken Parille. So far it's been a great read. Some standouts: Tim Hensley presents a slideshow he delivered at a lecture at the Hammer Museum. It's about Suiho Tagawa, the creator of Norakuro. It's excellent despite using some of my amateurish photos from the Norakuro Museum in Tokyo. Jonathan Bennett looks at the work of Charley Harper and 1000 frames of Hitchcock. Ken Parille brief look at cartoonist Pete Morisi. There's plenty more. Take a look.

7:15 - 4oz formula Start Bedtime Routine
8:00 - Asleep for the night
10:00 6oz formula (dream feed)
2:00am 6oz formula (dream feed)
7 am - wake up and eat 6oz formula and a fruit, veggie, oatmeal, etc...whatever we feel like that morning. Then we play unil naptime.

'Fifty Shades of Grey' bad for women's health?
By Tony Bravo on August 28, 2014 at 3:33 PM
Detractors of the soft-core bdsm novel series "Fifty a Shades of Grey" (soon to be a major motion picture, see trailer above) may feel vindicated now that a new study claims that reading "Fifty Shades" can be bad for young women's health. The study, recently published in the Journal of Women's Health, found a link […] …

Well I think it will be a good plugin have the posibility to create an images and choose the size showing the url or both.
Why?, for example http:/www.oxigenstar.com I use one custom field to put the url of the image in the colum's middle. But I can't optimize because this image is bigger always.

Gisela / Venezuela
Hello, my name is Gisela and the question I will be answering is have you ever been heartbroken?
Well, yes of course, everybody has, and an important thing I've learn about heartbreaking experiences is that they have taught me those attitudes and behavior I must change because I do believe at this point in my life that we are the ones who allow things to happen and heartbreaking experiences to happen. So I think it's a big lesson for us to learn and the good thing about it is that we become better persons. They have taught me to be a better person and a wiser woman. What about you?

We were 5 friends in Milan for a week-end. The appartment was perfect and well-located to visit both the lakes and the city center.
Filiberto is very easy to contact and accept that we arrive late.
fantastic clean and spacious apartment, excellent service
The appartment has several very serious problems:
- It is not clear;
- Too cold - no option for increase of the temperature of the heating system.
- The messages everywhere are not very polite, you feel like your on school vacation;
- The heating system is very nosiy during the night;
- The appartment it is not look like the pictures in Wimdu;
- The bathroom has serious problems with water everywhere;
- Not enough sunlight;
+The service was very good and helpfull.
+ Perfect location.
+ Many supermarkets and restaurants near the appartment.
+ Close to metro station.
We had a mixed experience at RIPA-near the Canals. On the plus side, the apartment was in a great location and very roomy. On the negative side, only one of the two beds had been made up and there were no sheets for the second bed. Despite contacting the host immediately, we did not receive sheets for two days. Also, early one morning we lost all power, heating and hot water when we put the washing machine on. This overloaded the system and meant we were in darkness for a couple of hours until we could contact the host and get instructions for correcting the problem. Despite these issues, though, we were happy overall with the apartment. It was clean, had lots of space, and it's right on the canal where there are plenty of restaurants, a fabulous bakery, and good access to the trains.
very good location, impressive entrance but :
floor space max. 35qm, very cold downstairs, hot upstairs (due to funny heating system), practically no daylight, not clean.
bring your on caffe pads and toilett paper!
there are much better places available.
A nice cosy and quiet appartment in a very Italian building with courtyard. The neighbourhood is very nice, There are no cars in the street, just the picturesk canal (with an antique market when we were there) and restaurants. It's a nice area to walk around.
This flat is really near to the Central Station, which is perfect. Also, the check in and the check out with the landlorswas very good, the only bad thing I can think of was that the Wi-Fi signal was very weak, we could only connect to the Wi-Fi the first night.
Picking up the key was no problem for me even though I was arriving late. The apartment is very convenient and only a few minutes walk from the central station and metro. It is located on a quiet street and the apartment had everything you needed. It was quiet clean and warm. I would stay here again.
Great location, very close to the metro, bars and pubs. Apartment was clean and nice. It was also very calm and peaceful there. Acquisition of keys went very smooth, road to the room was explained very well, so we didn't have any problems with getting to the apartment. We are very satisfied with our stay, we had a great time there and we recommend it to everyone.
We liked the appartement very much! Enough room with 3 persons. Near the appartment are a lot of nice restaurants and it´s close to the metro station.
The appartement was clean with everything included. We would definitely recommend it and book it again when we will visit Milan another time.

The debate rages on as to whether Donald Trump has remodeled or vandalized the Republican party. In any event, left-wing pundits spent the week gaping at, and writing about, what they viewed as the grotesque spectacle of the RNC. For example, Daily Kos's Hunter opined that the convention was "was barely one step up from an internet-peddled snuff film," and Salon's Heather Digby Parton declared that "all that's left of the 'three-legged stool' of conservatism is the seat — racism, nativism and xenophobia."
Early this week, in an MSNBC interview, Tavis Smiley said that there's far too much attention being paid to "cop killers" and not enough to "killer cops."
Then, in a Tuesday USA Today column, he cast his sympathetic lot with Gavin Long, who killed three Baton Rouge police offices on Sunday before a police sharpshooter killed him. Smiley told readers that we should "Listen to the Baton Rouge police killer." Later in the week, he interviewed Corine Woodley, Long's mother, on his PBS show. Woodley's own words indicated that what caused her son to snap was that he bought into both the lies of the violent Black Lives Matter movement and the left's obsession with "the one percent."
President Obama isn't making relations between black and white Americans worse. Reality is making them worse, contends Bouie, who wrote in a July 15, 2016 piece that "black Americans—and Americans writ large—are reacting to facts on the ground, killings, and other incidents that put racial inequality into stark relief." Bouie claimed that on racial matters, Obama has consistently urged "reconciliation and unity," and that beliefs to the contrary are "nonsense" resulting from "a deliberate miscasting of Obama's rhetoric."
After her MSNBC colleagues determined that Donald Trump's convention speech Thursday night was a message derived from talk radio to "white America" that he would "protect" them, convention co-host Rachel Maddow stated just after the midnight Eastern mark that Trump serves as "a gateway drug" to transforming the GOP into one featuring people like David Duke (and by extension the KKK).
Reacting to Donald Trump's nomination acceptance speech to conclude the Republican National Convention (RNC), Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson and MSNBC's AM Joy host Joy Reid ruled late Thursday that Trump channeled a "conservative talk radio" culture in pledging "to white America" that he would "protect" them from illegal immigrants and secularists.
In Thursday's New York Times, reporter Alexander Burns brought in Walter Mondale, failed presidential candidate in 1984, to bash Trump as a "hate advocate" in "Trump May Break Mold, but He Fits a Pattern, Too." (A Nazi one.) Another aggrieved reporter defended Hillary Clinton from GOP "venom" that had a "strikingly sinister tone that makes the days of Swift-boating and Bush-bashing at past conventions seem tame."
Hollywood Oscar-winner Charlize Theron was selected as the opening ceremony speaker at the 2016 International AIDS Conference this week. In front of thousands of attendees, the South African actress and founder of the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project shared a pretty astounding fact – bigotry is the reason AIDS is still ravaging the globe.
Two days after a tense exchange on MSNBC involving race and American history, American Urban Radio Networks correspondent April Ryan returned to the network's set on Wednesday night to declare her opponent from Monday in Republican Congressman Steve King (Iowa) is "stunted mentally to be honest with you."
Some folks, like Cosmopolitan writer Brittany Cooper, see racism everywhere. Melania Trump's Monday night speech sparked ridicule and outrage from people on both sides of the aisle. Plagiarism is stupid and dishonest, and denying it in the face of evidence is…stupid and dishonest. But for the unhinged Brittany Cooper, any defense of Melania is just another example of white privilege.
The news about the first all-female Ghostbusters team was shortly overshadowed by the Twitter abuse black actress Leslie Jones received following the film's debut. Then, the movie's Executive Producer Dan Aykroyd said the offensive social media trolls would surely vote Republican. Great.
Former New Black Panther leader Malik Shabazz, whose incendiary, racist remarks could fill a very long book, was interviewed by Megyn Kelly at Fox News Monday night.
Shabazz has had a long history of establishment media indulgence, which explains how he can now meritlessly present himself as the supposedly respectable head and co-founder of "Black Lawyers for Justice." Fox's choice to give him air time was questionable, but at least Kelly gave him no quarter.
At the beginning of "Ambush," Lifetime's UnREAL warned last night's episode contained imagery and dialogue related to gun violence, race, and law enforcement. After claiming the network's "hearts are with those families affected by gun violence," Lifetime proceeded to run an episode of UnREAL, a show about the fictional behind-the-scenes workings of a reality show similar to The Bachelor, that exploited a situation involving the show's black "suitor" and white police officers.

Giant cell arteritis and polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR)
What are they?
Giant cell arteritis, also called temporal arteritis or cranial arteritis, is a serious disease that is characterized by inflammation of the walls of the blood vessels (vasculitis). The vessels affected are the arteries (hence the name "arteritis"). The diagnosis is confirmed with a biopsy of an artery, usually an artery on the side of the scalp called the temporal artery.
Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is a disorder of the muscles and joints of older persons. It is characterized by pain and stiffness, affects both sides of the body, and involves the shoulders, arms, neck, and buttock areas.
Giant cell arteritis occurs in 10-15% of patients with polymyalgia rheumatica. The age of affected patients with these conditions is over 50 years. The onset of giant cell arteritis may be years before, after, or without accompanying polymyalgia rheumatica.

Does anyone have any information about the medical debt relief act, I was researching and it seems like it is no longer in effect and now there is a proposal for the medical debt responsibilty act that states something about paying off your debt and having it removed within 45 days....
Does anyone know where I can find more information about these two acts??? Also I read that if you pay a collection debt, that you last date of activity restarts the 7 year process, is that correct?
I don't have any information about the medical debt relief/responsiblity acts, but reporting of debts is covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Per the FCRA, collection accounts report for 7.5 years from the DOFD of the original account, which for medical debt is usually the date the medical procedure occurred. Paying a collection cannot reset the credit reporting time period ( CRTP ).

I'm using the newest release of BPS, and since installing and configuring it a few weeks ago, everything's been fine. But as of a few hours ago, several images no longer show. And if I attempt to right-click and load the images in a new window, the browser returns a 403 (forbidden) error.
Again, everything was fine until just a few hours ago. Apart from this image issue, the rest of the site content appears fine.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks!

Hi! This plugin is almost exactly what I need. one thing that would be really helpful is to be able to see on the calendar without having to click on quick edit if the post is a draft, pending, or scheduled. The best way in my mind would be to be able to highlight each post title in a specific color. So in one look I can see on the calendar "oh that post right there is still a draft or pending..let's finish it and schedule it." I took a look at the generated code and don't see anything in each element that defines what its status is...if it did then it would be as easy as adding a little CSS.
What do you think? Can I already do this, and I'm just missing it?

Related: UNOH 225 results " Complete Kentucky coverage
SPARTA, Ky. -- Ryan Blaney survived two skirmishes, including one that saw his pole-winning No. 29 Ford brush the outside wall, to finish fifth in Thursday night's UNOH 225 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at Kentucky Speedway.
An impressive run for the 19-year-old, but a disappointing one as well he said moments after climbing from the blue and white entry.
"We had a really good truck so it wasn't all bad. But we should be over there," he said with a nod toward Victory Lane, where race winner Ty Dillon was enjoying the spoils of his win.
Blaney, son of NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Dave Blaney, led twice for 28 of the race's 150 laps. He was second on a Lap 47 restart when he nearly lost the handle on his truck while battling leader Darrell Wallace Jr. for the top spot.
"Really loose? Yeah, that was (wild). That was just a factor of being on the bottom," Blaney said. "I did kind of use the 54 (of Wallace) up on the restart, tried to push him out and dive away from him. I actually got loose as I dove away from him and that's what really set up that corner. Then he went to my door.
"There was actually water down in the middle of (Turns) 1-2; it was weeping out of the cracks, and it was really hard to run down there. I just hit that wrong and it shot me sideways ? it was a pretty good comeback to get back up there and be around for the win. That's all we can ask for."
Blaney was able to stay in the top 10, and had worked his way back to second just past the 100-lap mark. By Lap 119, he was filling the mirror of race leader Kyle Busch. But before Blaney could get around the Sprint Cup Series regular, his truck was once again headed toward the wall. This time, there was contact, although once more he was able to gather the truck in and continue on.
"I was working his inside; I could run the bottom really good," Blaney, now sixth in points, said of the battle with Busch. "I knew he would try to ? take the air off my nose. I was able to roll around the top and got to his quarter panel ? (he) ended up putting us in the wall off of (Turn) 4, which was unfortunate.
"I don't think it was intentional; I think it was just hard racing."
Busch, who led 42 laps but faded at the end to finish third, said he "got all the way out of the gas, cranking left and it was dumping air on my splitter, making me tight. And I got him into the fence.
"I hate it for (Blaney) because he's racing for a win just like we were. I didn't want to do it, but (it) just happened that way."

Gannon women fall to Bloomsburg in PSAC championship
BLOOMSBURG -- Gannon could not replicate its last-second heroics from Friday's semifinal win Saturday, as Bloomsburg, paced by 11 second-half points from Kayla Oxenrider, pulled away from Gannon to win the PSAC tournament championship.
No. 6 Gannon, which reached the conference final when Nettie Blake hit a jumper as time expired in Friday's 63-62 win over Millersville, fell behind early and could not fully recover.
The Golden Knights eventually managed to tie the Huskies at halftime when Brittany Batts hit back-to-back 3-pointers to fuel an 8-0 run to end the first half.
Forward Jen Papich scored on back-to-back possessions to put Gannon ahead for the first time in the second half's opening minutes, but Bloomsburg's Catherine Noack responded with a 3-pointer that put the Huskies on top for good.
Bloomsburg (24-5) built a modest 56-50 lead thanks to six straight points from Oxenrider, when Batts cut the Huskies' lead to three when she drained one of her game-high five 3s. But Bloomsburg answered with a 10-0 run, which included a four-point play from Oxenrider.
Batts, who set Gannon's single-season 3-point record earlier in the week in Gannon's quarterfinal win over California, finished with a game-high 17 points, 14 of which came in the first half.
Bloomsburg held Gannon to just 39 percent from the field and outrebounded the Knights 37-31, marking just the third time this season that Gannon has been outrebounded.
Oxenrider and Lauren Ellis led Bloomsburg with 16 points apiece.
Gannon, ranked first in the Atlantic Region, were seeking to win the PSAC tournament for the first time since 2009-10. The Knights will await word on their seeding for the NCAA tournament in today's selection show.

Before the film, César Chavez, Chavez's life was depicted in photographs by his confidant, Jon Lewis.
In the winter of 1966, twenty-eight-year-old ex-marine Jon Lewis visited Delano, California, the center of the California grape strike. He thought he might stay awhile, then resume studying photography at San Francisco State University. He stayed for two years, becoming the United Farm Workers Union's semiofficial photographer and a close confidant of farmworker leader César Chávez.
Surviving on a picket's wage of five dollars a week, Lewis photographed twenty-four hours a day and created an insider's view of the historic and sometimes violent confrontations, mass marches, fasts, picket lines, and boycotts that forced the table-grape industry to sign the first contracts with a farm workers union. Though some of his images were published contemporaneously, most remained unseen. Historian and photographer Richard Steven Street rescues Lewis from obscurity, allowing us for the first time to see a pivotal moment in civil rights history through the lens of a passionate photographer.
A masterpiece of social documentary, this work is at once the biography of a photographer, an exposé of poverty and injustice, and a celebration of the human spirit.
"With characteristic erudition, historian Richard Steven Street brings to life the incredible work of Jon Lewis, one of the foremost labor and civil rights photographers of the twentieth century. This book simultaneously captures agricultural California's most pressing political struggles and the vision of a major, if unrecognized, artist."—Stephen Pitti, professor of history at Yale University and author of The Devil in Silicon Valley: Northern California, Race, and Mexican Americans
"Jon Lewis's magnificent photographs of the farmworker revolution in California evoke comparisons with the work of Dorothea Lange. They bend time past all forgetting to an era of struggle that stands on a par with Selma and Freedom Summer—the bitter fight to dignify Mexican and Filipino labor in the fields. Richard Street, who brought Lewis and his archive back into the light, provides a piercing account that honors both the brilliance of this photographer and the memory of a singular time and place."—Richard A. Walker, professor of geography at the University of California, Berkeley, and author of The Conquest of Bread: 150 Years of California Agribusiness

He's pulling double duty this weekend as both the host and musical guest at "Saturday Night Live" and Drake just fired off a few promotional clips to prepare for the gig.
Joined by cast member Leslie Jones, the 29-year-old Canadian hitmaker joked that he gave out his personal cell phone number in "Hotline Bling."
He's well-known for his high-energy live performances and Drake is about to hit the road for a North American tour.
Joined by opening act Future, the Canadian hitmaker will kick off the Summer Sixteen Tour on July 20th in Austin, Texas. From there Drake will visit over 30 cities including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Houston.
With so many handsome hunks from which to choose, GQ has made the almost-impossible selection of the 2016 best-dressed dudes.
It's a beautiful day for Drake fans, as he just released two new songs and they're both part of his forthcoming Views From the 6 album.
Never one to skimp on the sex appeal, Rihanna just served up a pair of provocative clips for her new single "Work," and they're both red hot.
Featuring her good friend and sometimes boyfriend Drake, Ri-Ri's two takes on the treatment find her first getting her swerve on at a club called The Real Jerk.
Awards show fever has taken over the nation, and it looks like there's going to be some fierce competition at the 2016 iHeartRadio Awards.
She can't seem to stop making killer music, and Rihanna's latest track "Work" just hit the airwaves this morning (January 27).
The new ditty features Canadian rapper Drake and is said to be included on Ri-Ri's forthcoming album ANTI, which is rumored to be releasing later this week.
There's been all kinds of speculation regarding Madonna's spur-of-the-moment make out session with Drake at Coachella last night (April 12) and now the truth has come out.
Earlier today rumors ran rampant that the "Recognize" hitmaker was disgusted by the way Madge aggressively kissed him, and from the photos of the incident it was clear that he made a less-than-excited facial expression immediately after the moment.

I'm using categories to construct my portfolio in this way:
> Web
> Animation
> Print
Portfolio has an ID of 4, Web is 23, Animation is 27, and Print 31.
I have my URL's set /%category%/%postname%/ in the Permalinks, but when I add a post to say both Portfolio and Animation it won't show the /animation/ in the URL because Portfolio is a lower ID than Animation. How can I tell WordPress to ignore this? I'm sure I saw a plugin somewhere but can't remember where. The only other fix would be not to choose the parent category for the post and only choose the child, but this too has its problems.
Any ideas? I'm pretty sure there is a plugin, but I'm open to ideas.

I have been using WordPress Popular Posts for 2 1/2 years and enjoyed it. I updated a day ago to the new version, but then my stats seemed to revert to numbers from a year earlier. I upgraded to the latest version of WP after that, and then found my posts and comments from Sept. 2011 onward disappeared. Well, actually, they were on the site itself and the Top Posts were still changing. But I couldn't access them through the dashboard.
For whatever reason, the posts and comments issues were browser related and have been resolved (they're back!), but the WP Popular Posts stats are still wonky. Is this a common issue, or is there a reason why this might happen? Rather surreal.
Thank you for your assistance!

This Crazy Woman Cut Off Another Woman's Boobs With SCISSORS Because She Thought She Was Her Husband's Mistress
This has nothing to do with a woman being pissed about her husband possibly having a mistress. No, this bitch is just nucking futz. No one's first reaction, even if you're told "Hey I just murdered your entire family and then pooped in your mailbox, teehee!" would be to cut someone's tits off. And even if that was your first reaction, you wouldn't go to town on some boobs with a friggin' pair of SCISSORS. For one, that's more work for you in the long run, and two, that'd take SO LONG to do. Whaddya think, maybe an hour? An hour straight of slicing boobs. To put that into perspective, I can barely sit through an entire episode of Family Guy. That shit's only 30 minutes long and doesn't require any physical activity whatsoever, but none of those reasonable thoughts ever crossed Meng Tsao's mind.
" The assault is said to have happened in the Chinese city of Heshan in south-eastern Guangdong province, when Xiao Lin, 27, was at home watching TV.
She later told her husband, Xiao Luo, 28, that she had gone to answer the door but someone had kicked it, knocking her in the head and making her fall to the floor.
A bag was put over her head before she was stripped and tied up, she claimed.
Her husband told local media: 'She thought maybe it was a sex attacker but it was something much worse. The attacker cut off her breasts with a pair of scissors.'"
What. The fuck.
" According to detectives who arrested Meng, she admitted carrying out the attack and said it was because the other woman had stolen her husband.
However, when they spoke to the alleged attacker's husband, Meng Pan, he denied that he had been in an affair with Xiao Lin, although he did have a crush on her – but said she had turned him down.
He said he had once told his wife that he found Xiao Lin attractive, so when he then decided to file for divorce, his wife had become convinced that she was to blame and decided to get revenge."
Revenge on WHAT? She didn't DO anything you stupid bitch, if anything she kept your husband from cheating on your in the first place by turning him down. Just another reason…

Cedarburg native Josh Thompson unveils video for 'Wanted Me Gone'
Just in time for a concert swing through his home state, Wisconsin's biggest national country star, Josh Thompson, has released the video for his new song, "Wanted Me Gone." The song is the second single from Thompson's sophpmore album, "Turn It Up," which was released in April. It is already following the first song, "Cold Beer With Your Name On It" toward the country radio top 40.
The song is a classic country kiss off with a catchy groove. The video finds Thompson addressing his ex from the tailgate of a pickup filled with his belongings and sitting defiantly in a lawn chair under a window with his clothes - and even a whitetail archery target- raining down on him. »Read Full Blog Post

Welcome to Studebaker Motor Company Inc.
Today is April 6th, 2016.
First and foremost, I'd like to make it clear, the current Studebaker Motor Company is not, and has never, been associated with the original Studebaker Motor Compamy.
I say this because people sometimes contact me looking for answers pertaining to the original Studebaker Motor Company. From what I understand, (and it's common knowledge) they went out of business in 1966. Factories closed. Dealerships closed. Banks gathered the vehicle inventory to help offset the debts. The company was sold to Studebaker-Worthington, who then sold the Packard car company, and the rights to the Avanti, and quite possibly most of the other assets. Not much is known about what happened after that, and no-one has heard from them since. Just sort of faded away.
Then, in 2002, Tom Raines, (from Texas), thought it was a good idea to resurect the name, so he incorporated, started a webpage, made a few calls, and got the interest going. I met Tom Raines in 2005 while visiting a friend in Texas. In 2006 I became his partner, then purchased remaining stock (of the new company) in 2008. I've traveled, met with industry-ralated people, and even visited South Bend. Many people have contacted me to inquire where they can find Studebaker parts for their classic Studebaker vehicle. I'm thinking they should contact Studebaker International (South Bend).
Again, as to make it clear.... I do not, nor have I ever been a part of the original Studebaker Motor Company. You may want to contact the museum.
Here's who I am.
I'm a guy who has always liked Studebaker vehicles. As a young man I saw lot's of Studebakers. Then one day, not so many. Now, hardly any on the streets. So... hopefully, one day in the near future, I'll be able to create vehicles that are in some way reminiscent of classic Studebakers, yet brought into the 21st Century. If possible, reopen factories that have recentily been closed (Ford, Chrysler, GM), and employ Americans in those manufacturing and assembly plants, which shall be on American soil. I desire to make vehicles that not only compete, but have a significant cutting edge in a highly competitive world market.
Click on "Overview" then scroll down to read what is planned. Please be advised, the SUV shown on this website does have a certain appeal, however, may or may not be representative of future Studebaker concept vehicles. That said, with slight modifications, it is a possibility.
Thank you,
Ric W. Reed

In a near wordless masterpiece that could only have been devised by David Wiesner, a cat named Mr. Wuffles doesn't care about toy mice or toy goldfish. He's much more interested in playing with a little spaceship full of actual aliens—but the ship wasn't designed for this kind of rough treatment. Between motion sickness and damaged equipment, the aliens are in deep trouble.
When the space visitors dodge the cat and take shelter behind the radiator to repair the damage, they make a host of insect friends. The result? A humorous exploration of cooperation between aliens and insects, and of the universal nature of communication involving symbols, "cave" paintings, and gestures of friendship.
A Caldecott Honor book.
Editorial Reviews
"Expertly imagined, composed, drawn and colored, this is Wiesner at his best."
—Kirkus, starred review
"Wiesner once again produces a fantasy adventure that isn't like anything else around."
—Publishers Weekly, starred review
"This exemplary Wiesnerian blend of ordinary and extraordinary incorporates the delights of Borrowers-style innovations, quintessential cat behavior, and Wiesner's own exquisitely fashioned art."
—The Horn Book Magazine, starred review
"Once again Wiesner dips into his impressible imagination to deliver a mostly wordless conceptual picture book where the mundane and the magical collide. . . .Wiesner is a three-time Caldecott winner. Three. Fans will be ready to pounce."
—Booklist, starred review
"Visual storytelling at its best."
—School Library Journal, starred review
"The award-winning Wiesner (his trophy collection would make Meryl Streep blush) is a master of the form, a magical realist who makes the commonplace seem suddenly more interesting."
—The Atlantic Wire
"Fans of Tuesday will recognize Wiesner's easy shift from the mundane to the fantastical here as well as his deft and plausible creation of a skewed reality. . . . On a more dramatic note, there's a Spielberg/Lucas level of glory to the bold ant-back and ladybug-flying escape scenes (you can practically hear the John Williams score)."
—The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
K-Gr 4—Mr. Wuffles ignores all his fancy cat toys. Still sporting price tags, they line the hallway as he strolls by. But resting quietly among the feathers, balls, and mice is a tiny metal spaceship, and this catches his attention. His playful batting knocks around the alien explorers inside, causing bumps but no injuries. The ship's flying disks do not survive, however, and the aliens set out to explore the house and repair their craft. Barely escaping Mr. Wuffles's claws, they dash behind the radiator and discover primitive art of the cat's previous battles and make friends with the house's insects. The bugs help the aliens repair the spaceship, avoid capture, and fly away. Nearly wordless, the story is told through pictures and the languages of the ants and aliens, depicted by dashes and symbols. The book is fairly complex, best suited for elementary students, who will enjoy decoding the aliens' cryptographic alphabet. Wiesner humorously captures the curiosity and confusion of Mr. Wuffles and his human, who remains oblivious to the drama underfoot. The idea of a separate, tiny world next to ours makes a great premise, and Wiesner's engaging art and lively pacing carry the day. Visual storytelling at its best.—Suzanne Myers Harold, Multnomah County Library System, Portland, OR
A house cat pooh-poohs most proffered toys and gets his comeuppance tangling with a tiny alien spacecraft and its penny-sized adventurers. Peppered with speech bubbles in English, alien- or insect-speak, Wiesner's multipaneled tour de force treats the green ETs to maximum upheaval. Their initial celebration at landing turns to mayhem as their craft is buffeted by Mr. Wuffles. The aliens assess a smoldering engine part and disembark for help. The ensuing comic interplay pits cat against aliens as the tiny ones flee beneath a radiator cover. A ladybug and several ants assist them, and the repair's successfully made by harvesting cross sections of detritus: pencil eraser, M&M, marble and metal screw. The insects have decorated the wall of their lair with drawings à la Lascaux, the menacing Mr. Wuffles depicted prominently. After sketching a game plan, with insects playing transport and diversionary roles, the crew escapes back to the ship. Against oak floorboards and wallpaper prettily conveyed in ink and watercolor, the now-crazed Mr. Wuffles is riveted to the radiator, perplexing his human. Final panels show the cat gazing out the window, claws fruitlessly deployed; ants draw new scenes on their wall. Wiesner truly "gets" cats: An end-flap photo shows that the artist's "model" for the beleaguered Mr. Wuffles is indeed a household denizen. Expertly imagined, composed, drawn and colored, this is Wiesner at his best. (Picture book. 4-8)

Clever and well-crafted, this book handily entertained the the 3, 5 and 7 year olds, (as well as myself during a week-long illness. ) The author has put much care and effort into the well thought out illustrations and story line. A great book for promoting child involvement by question asking.
This is a great, creative kid's book! "It's clever." says my wife. Clearly, you need to pick books for an appropriate aged child, but since my wife and I bought it for ourselves, we understand the plot clearly. :) Mr. Wuffles is imaginative, wonderfully illustrated, and charming! We only buy charming kids books for ourselves.
Was very disappointed as I bought it for a younger child but it didn't state on cover the age it should have been for and I am sure my 2 yr. old didn't understand the last pages of book!

text: 000 FXUS63 KJKL 281612 AFDJKL Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jackson KY 1212 PM EDT THU JUL 28 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 1212 PM EDT THU JUL 28 2016 Have received a few reports of flooding in the Bluegrass region this morning prompting a flash flood warning to be issued. Fortunately, the heaviest axis of rain has pushed eastward and per recent IR imagery, has weakened slightly. The Bath county mesonet reported about 1.5" in two hours where about 1.0" fell in 30 minutes time. This affirms that any storm or shower is capable of producing high rainfall rates. The next area of rainfall looks like its enhancing just southwest of the area, per recent satellite imagery, and is expected to lift across the central and southern portions of the area. In terms of the grids, did a quick refresh to the hourlies and sent updates to NDFD and web servers. UPDATE Issued at 948 AM EDT THU JUL 28 2016 Recent radar trends have shown a slow eastward push to the rainfall swath so backed off on some of the pops in the far east for the next couple of hours. In the Bluegrass region, some training of moderate to heavy rain is occurring so this will be the primary area to watch this morning for potential flooding. Otherwise, forecast remains on track with several rounds of rain expected today. Additionally, there is a marginal to slight risk of severe weather in the far east this afternoon but this might hinge on how much cloud cover they experience throughout the morning. UPDATE Issued at 759 AM EDT THU JUL 28 2016 Hourly grids have been updated based on recent observations. Recent HRRR runs generally support the ongoing forecast so no pop adjustments have been made so far, though they could be a touch fast over the next hour or two. && .SHORT TERM...(Today through Friday) Issued at 355 AM EDT THU JUL 28 2016 A warm front continues to lift north and generally resides near the OH then southeast into WV. A warm and moist airmass is in place across the region with sfc dewpoints in the upper 60s to lower 70s. PW is analyzed around 2 inches across the northern half of the area with 1.75 to 2 inches across the southwest part of the area. A mid and upper level low is meandering up the MS Valley into the Lower OH Valley. Isentropic lift in advance of this system is producing areas of convection across the Appalachians and OH Valley at this time. At present, nearly all of Eastern KY is rain free. However, patchy fog has developed in the wake of afternoon and evening convection. Mid and high level clouds however have kept the fog in check so far. To the east of the mid and upper low is a ridge of high pressure centered north of the Bahamas with another ridge centered over Western Conus. A closed low is over northern Quebec with disturbances rotating down into the northern Plains and Great Lakes as they move around the Western Conus ridge. The mid and upper low/trough nearing the Lower OH Valley will move into the Central Appalachian region this evening with this system interacting with another weak shortwave that is currently nearing the Kansas City, MO area. This system will have a moist airmass in place to work with and with nearly stalled a frontal zone in place just north of the region, heavy rain remains a concern from the convection. PW is expected to climb over 2 inches today across most of this morning, with the possible exception of the VA border counties where it might not reach those levels until late this afternoon or this evening. PW is expected to remain at 2 inches or greater along and north of the Mountain parkway the longest, peaking near or a bit above 2.25 inches near the I 64 corridor today. PW though should begin to decrease this evening into the overnight as the mid level wave departs. With a slightly drier airmass and the potential for more solar insolation this morning into early afternoon, locations south of the Mountain Parkway corridor and east of Interstate 75 will have the highest chances of stronger to possibly marginally severe thunderstorms with wind gusts being the greatest threat. However, any of the strongest storms will be able to produce wind gusts of 30 to 40 mph due to precipitation loading. The Flash Flood Watch remains in effect through 12Z (8 AM on Friday) although the threat should diminish by late Thursday evening across much of the area. Convection may linger longer in the higher terrain near the VA border. The sfc frontal zone should move little through the period, perhaps moving a bit further southeast. A broad trough/weakness is expected to extend from the Great Lakes down into the MS Valley region to end the period in between the two ridge centers. This favors unsettled weather for Friday with a diurnal peak in convection with weak disturbances interacting with a lingering moist, but not quite as moist airmass, with PW generally averaging in the 1.5 to 1.75 inch range. Considerable cloud cover and cooler 850 mb temps compared to earlier in the week should lead to highs closer to climatological normals for late July during the short term period. Overnight lows will be mild with the airmass remaining moist, however. .LONG TERM...(Friday night through Wednesday) Issued at 315 AM EDT THU JUL 28 2016 Based on the latest model data, the weather will remain unsettled through out the extended period, with almost daily chances of showers and storms across the area. A stalled out frontal boundary, along with a series of disturbances aloft moving along it, will be the weather makers for days 3 through 7. The best chance for rain in the extended looks to be on Saturday as a front moves across the area. This boundary then looks like it will get hung up in the Tennessee Valley, but will be close enough to our area to spark additional showers and storms for several days across eastern Kentucky. Temperatures are expected to top out in the mid to upper 80s each day, and bottom out in the upper 60s to around 70 each night. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Friday morning) ISSUED AT 810 AM EDT THU JUL 28 2016 A weak disturbance is nearing the lower OH Valley and another upstream over MO should combine to bring convection across the area through about 6Z or so. The atmosphere is moist as well so MVFR vis and or CIGS have been kept through at least the 20Z to 0Z period, with further reductions possible thereafter at all sites. If partial clearing occurs late, fog could become an issue by the 6Z to 12Z period. There will likely be varying conditions and some at least brief VFR in between showers and storms cannot be ruled out between 12Z and 18Z at most sites, with IFR or even below airport mins for a time in the stronger showers and storms. && .JKL Watches/Warnings/Advisories... Flash Flood Watch through Friday morning for KYZ044-050>052- 058>060-068-069-079-080-083>088-104-106>120. && $$ UPDATE...JVM SHORT TERM...JP LONG TERM...AR AVIATION...JP

We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
I have a matrix
I need to remove all of the zeros such as
The matrices I am using are large (1x15000) I need to do this multiple times (5000+)
Efficiency is key!
One way:
A note on timing:
As mentioned by woodchips, this method seems slow compared to the one used by KitsuneYMG. This has also been noted by Loren in one of her MathWorks blog posts. Since you mentioned having to do this thousands of times, you may notice a difference, in which case I would try
WARNING: Beware if you are using non-integer numbers. If, for example, you have a very small number that you would like to consider close enough to zero so that it will be removed, the above code won't remove it. Only exact zeroes are removed. The following will help you also remove numbers "close enough" to zero:
Just to be different:
This has the bonus of working on complex numbers too
Those are the three common solutions. It helps to see the difference.
As you should see, the cheapest way is the direct logical index, selecting out the elements to be retained. The find is more expensive, since matlab finds those elements, returning a list of them, and then indexes into the vector.
Here's another way
y = x(find(x))
I'll leave it to you to figure out the relative efficiency of the various approaches you try -- do write and let us all know.
Though my timing results are not conclusive to whether it is significantly faster, this seems to be the fastest and easiest approach:
Then x2 and y2 can be obtained as:
Hope this helps!
