I'm a history teacher who was introduced to everyone's favorite vegetarian vampires by my students.
I'm just starting to write my own stories, but for now I fill my time reading all the good stuff on twilighted.
With Bella's love of cooking and Alice's flair for parties their dream comes true of owning their own business. Both Bella and Edward have pasts to deal with. Will love help them and can they help each other?
Yes yes yes.
This is all coming together so wonderfully. I'm glad Rosalie gets to have a baby, that Edward knows it is Bella, that Carlisle and Esme are going to be so happy.
To me, this story can just go on forever and ever. I think I'm okay with you taking your sweet time developing ExB so long as once their together, this doesn't have to end. Please?!
thank you for saying that. it wiill get sweet i promise!
Ugh the slow torture is so delicious.
LOL i know i am evil LOL
It is very nice to see the better side of Edward - now that he knows the identity of his mystery woman he can better identify.
Another great job.
Can they kiss sooooooon torture lady? Just kidding. Maybe.
LOL the kissing will happen i promise you are just going to have to wait a little while longer.
Ah Bella, you're falling for the same person in two ways. Yay!
This was a beautiful chapter with enough detail and plot to make the slow torture very worth it.
More soon please!
ahhhh thank you. i am so glad you are enjoying this. next chapter comming up soon!
Ugh Edward if you feel like this then just FIX IT!
Great chapter!
i am not going to say anything. i don't want to give away to much LOL i know i am evil MUAHAHAHAHA. thank you for reading
Of course they are soul mates!!!
I can't wait for more!
thank you for reading!
So, I was away for the weekend and missed your story so much! Now I see that I have delicious, plot-moving chapters to catch up on! Yippee!!
I love Carlisle/Esme! They're just so perfect for each other! How could anyone mind at all?
Sweet chapter!!
Oh no! damnit Bella, your two men are one!!!!
lol kansas you idiot!
sweet and wonderful, as usual
he love her, he loves her, he loves her!
please stop the torture - get Bella to her man, and soon!
they will be together i am not saying when though LOL thank you for reading.
1. Jasper and Alice together is pure magic, and you wrote it beautifully.
2. Bella and Edward are going to meet! She took his admission of love very well - I can only hope that she'll be ready to accept that her real life Edward is her love.
thank you for saying that about this chapter. for someone that has never written sex scenes before i just try to make it romantic and special. thank you for reading. it is reviews like yours that keep me going.
Bella, don't be so darn stubborn!
Poor Edward... although he does sort of deserve it.
she is not being stubborn she is dealing with everything from her past. i promise things will come together and then all happiness and what not.
thank you for reading.
I accidentally left my chapter 44 comments on chapter 1. Sorry.
This is so sad... to see Edward finally willing to let go of his saddest "might have been" and start to hope again is beautiful. I want Bella to come around!
everyone will come around. i promise i wont leave this full of angst andheart break. i am so glad you are enjoying this.
Excellent chapter - Angela IS a great friend for Bella, and I'm glad Bella has her.
In all of her excitement, Alice can be a little bit selfish - I'm glad you fleshed that out here.
yes alice is selfish but in her eyes it is how she puts herself out there. thank you for seeing that. thank you for reading.
Edward is still so perfect. I'm (again) proud of both Bella and Edward for being so adult, and here I'm also proud of Alice. She's reined herself in and that should allow Bella to flex herself out. Great job!
thank you for loving this so!! thank you for your awesome review too they keep me going!
And thank you for keeping it so realistic. For all their love, the two of them have a lot to deal with.
I personally am looking forward to as many more chapters/sequels as you see fit to grace us with :)
thank you for saying i am keeping it realistic. bella and edward are not going to jump into sex for awhile. it will happen and soon but i am giving you all some sweet moments before that. they both need to figure out what is going on in each other's heads. thank you for reading
As always, I love EPOV!
thank you!
Emmett and Rosalie are sweet and wonderful and perfect, and Bella coming to her senses is lovely as well.
Excellent chapter!
thank you for your review.
So wonderful, in every way :) I wish WE could know the babies' gender though.. even if Rose and Emmett don't.
thank you. no one is going to find out what gender the babies are till they get here. at this point i dont even know what i am going to do LOL thank you for reading.
Wonderful chapter! Healing all around - baby anticipation - friends who love each other.
I love where this story is right now - and I have high hopes about lovin' between our E/B.
Great job!
thank you for reading. your review makes me keep going.
Another sweet, wonderful chapter.
I like the way Alice is coming along, and Bella too. They're feeling out their situations a bit better, and I'm proud of them.
Good for Bella with the Palmer woman and her big decision.
thank you for reading. i am glad you are enjoying this!
YAAAAAAAY first date.
But I wish Edward had slept over with her... too bad.
Can't wait for more!
thank you for making my day a little brighter!
So, I'm terribly sad that this story is coming to an end... I feel so close to these characters after so many chapters! I am definitely down for a sequel, if you can find the time.
Alice is my hero in this chapter.
ahhhh thank you. you made my day so far! there will be a sequal. there are so many things comming and i cant wrap it up in the chapters i have planned. i think you would all hate me if i did it that way. thank you for reading.

April 29, 2014 by Jeff Samsel
Editor's note: Veteran outdoor writer Jeff Samsel lives just a short drive from Lake Murray and spent his college years at the University of South Carolina, studying Murray's bass population in lieu of his textbooks. He'll be tracking lake trends and gathering local updates from Murray in the weeks leading up to the Forrest Wood Cup presented by Walmart and hosted by Capital City Lake Murray Country Aug. 14-17. You can contact him with updates at email@example.com.
"Normally they're pretty much done spawning by now," said Andy Wicker of Pomaria, S.C., which is just east of Murray's upper end. Wicker, who with a Clemson University teammate finished second in the 2012 FLW College Fishing Championship on Lake Murray, fished a local tournament recently and found that there were still large numbers of bass on the beds.
Wicker typically targets postspawn fish that are relating to blueback herring and feeding on the surface in the lake's clear low end during the second half of April, but those fish were nowhere to be found.
A very cold and rainy winter caused water temperatures to dip extra low and stay there much later than normal this winter, and everything has been behind schedule. Water temperatures had finally climbed to the upper 60s in some areas early two weeks ago after a spell of spring-like weather. However, a few more cold nights through the middle part of that week pushed the temperature down a few degrees.
The cooling trend made the fish a little finicky for spring on Lake Murray - but "a little finicky" is relative. A 40-boat tournament still yielded a handful of 20-pound-plus bags.

777. scottsvb
|Ok..just FYI everyone..that X 90L is getting better organized this evening..its about 80miles east of Abaco Island.. its about where the GFDL and HWRF had it from the 0z run last night.Now I give this still a 30% chance of developing..but it dont matter..its the winds and rainfall that it brings onshore. The circulation is not compelete with no northwest wind..but winds near and north of the center are running around 40kts or 45-50mph.The center doesnt need to get a strong wind all around remember..just a light northwest wind outwards for 10miles from the COC would classify this. This is expected to slide west later this evening and tonight and near the coast by Weds morning into the afternoon. I'm not going to say this will develop ala last GFDL,HWRF or todays 12z CMC run..but will bring alot of winds onshore near the coast from Cocoa beach-Daytona mainly due to the pressure gradient of the low and high to its north.

LEXION 780 Walkaround Take a virtual tour of our top-end combine!
Omaha, NE — July 19, 2016 — CLAAS has announced that it has signed a letter of intent with MirTech to become their new distribution partner for the Western Delta region, a territory previously covered by Holt CAT.
The announcement comes after Holt CAT informed its employees they were moving out of the region.
"The territory encompassing the Missouri bootheel and Northeastern Arkansas is one of the most productive rice farming areas in the world," explained CLAAS of America President and GM – Sales Eric Raby. "Our LEXION combines are particularly well suited for challenging rice crops, and we are excited to build our support of farmers in the region with an experienced dealer organization."
MirTech, founded by Colorado native Robert Krattli, is a large dealer group with an existing multi-location operation in Eastern Europe and has a long-standing history with CLAAS. Their resources and experience allow them to quickly step into the Delta region to support the needs of current and future CLAAS customers.
"Fifteen years of experience with the brand has confirmed to us and our customers that CLAAS equipment is superior," explained MirTech CEO Kirill Krattli. "At the conclusion of our planning with CLAAS and the assignment of a dealer agreement for this important territory, we will work to ensure superior service to all customers in the area."
LEXION combines, assembled in Omaha, Nebraska, are designed to handle many of the challenges presented by rice crops. The high-capacity harvesters offer a TERRA TRAC undercarriage, hardened components and a superior "hybrid" threshing and separation system that work particularly well in wet and challenging rice harvesting conditions."We are excited with the prospect of bringing MirTech on board not only to grow our combine business but also as a long-line CLAAS dealer, which directly ties to our distribution strategy," said Raby. "In addition to our combines, MirTech will carry our new XERION tractor line, JAGUAR forage harvesters and our balers and hay tools, providing growers in the area with an even broader selection of equipment than they previously received."
For more information about the CLAAS line products, growers can visit the company's website at www.claas.com.
CLAAS of America Inc. offers a wide variety of technologically innovative tractor, combine, forage harvester, baler and hay tool products to provide growers optimum performance in the field. These premium equipment lines are designed by a dedicated engineering staff located at numerous worldwide factories focused on the production and design of harvesting equipment. The design, performance and reliability of this equipment have made CLAAS an international market leader. For more information, visit www.claas.com.
Omaha, NE — July 5, 2016 — CLAAS of America recently received Gold Level Recognition in the the Equipment Dealers Association's (EDA) 2016 Dealer-Manufacturer Relations Survey Report.
The annual report highlights the results of a 2,300-participant survey about the relationship between dealers and their suppliers.
The EDA asked equipment dealers to rate up to seven manufacturer lines based on 12 criteria related to operations and support. Only manufacturers who received the minimum number of ratings are included in the final survey results. CLAAS was one of the companies that received Gold Level Recognition in the "Shortline Manufacturer" category. Collectively, 27 companies for all categories were recognized as Gold Level.
"We're very honored to receive this recognition," said Eric Raby, CLAAS of America President & General Manager – Sales. "Certainly our products and processes put us in a very positive position in the marketplace, but we place a priority on building close relationships with dealers. Without our dealer partners, the best products and processes won't get us very far, so the positive feedback received for this recognition indicates that we are delivering value to our distribution."
CLAAS continues to grow both its product portfolio and its distribution network that support the brand's expansion roadmap in North America.
The full EDA report is available to dealer members and manufacturers rated in the survey. For more information on becoming an EDA member, contact Joe Dykes at firstname.lastname@example.com or 636.349.6205.

Regina, SK — June 1, 2016 — CLAAS of America moves forward yet again in expanding its dealer network throughout Saskatchewan with the announcement of a third Canada West Harvest Centre location.
Reinforcing its commitment to support local growers, by harvest of 2016 the international ag equipment manufacturer will have opened three dealer stores in southern Saskatchewan.
The newest location, in Swift Current, is set to open in time for the 2016 harvest. It joins two other Canada West Harvest Centre locations in Regina and Saskatoon.
"It's been a year of exciting announcements," stated Doug Tibben, General Manager of Canada West Harvest Centre. "Each new location and upgrade has been made with our customers in mind. Providing comprehensive service to local growers has always been our foremost priority."
Over the past two years, there has been an increasing need for CLAAS sales and service among growers in Saskatchewan and Western Canada. The company has made the expansion of the reach of Canada West Harvest Centre locations a priority.
"Independent business partners are the primary outlet for CLAAS sales and service in North America," said Leif Magnusson, President, CLAAS Global Sales - Americas. "But we felt that a CLAAS-owned network of dealerships was the most immediate way to meet the needs of our growers. We're proud of our effort, and we hope customers will be better served now with all three locations in operation."
The new location will open at 2747 North Service Road West, Swift Current, SK. For more information, call 306-778-2300 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. The location is now hiring sales, service and parts personnel. Visit cawhc.com for employment opportunities.

OMAHA, NE— May 2, 2016 — CLAAS announces that one of its leading forage harvester and hay tool dealers – Parmer County Implement -- is expanding its product support portfolio to include the LEXION combine range and will now serve the West Texas area previously covered by Warren CAT.
Based in Friona, Texas, Parmer County Implement will expand its service team and parts distribution to effectively cover the territory which also includes portions of western Oklahoma. Additional parts and service support to Parmer County Implement will be provided directly by CLAAS in the start-up phase to ensure coverage of customer needs during this upcoming harvest season.

"We have many years of experience serving the forage harvesting market, where timely parts and service are absolutely critical. This puts us in an optimal position to meet the needs of LEXION owners as well."
"Parmer County Implement has proven through their performance with the JAGUAR forage line that they understand customers' operations and what they expect from their dealers. With that track record, Parmer County Implement is an ideal example of CLAAS growing our long-line distribution partners representing the complete range of products." explained CLAAS of America President & GM - Sales, Eric Raby. "The addition of support for the LEXION combine range is a natural next step and continues to demonstrate our commitment to customers, with actions and not just words."

Senate Overhaul Debate, Singapore Rules: Compliance
Senate Republicans abandoned their efforts to block debate over legislation overhauling U.S. financial rules, vowing instead to fight for changes to the bill on issues ranging from consumer protection to derivatives, according to reporting by Bloomberg's Alison Vekshin and James Rowley.
The Senate today will begin considering amendments to the legislation, which is based on a proposal by President Barack Obama, beginning with the Democrats' plan to strengthen oversight of the $605 trillion over-the-counter derivatives market.
Alabama Senator Richard Shelby, who negotiated on behalf of Republicans to get a bipartisan deal, said he will propose "a lot of amendments," including one that would establish a consumer financial protection bureau at the Federal Reserve.
Republicans and Democrats yesterday ended a two-week standoff on the bill, bringing Congress closer to approving the biggest financial-oversight restructuring since the 1930s, two years after a mortgage meltdown shook global markets and hobbled Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and other Wall Street firms.
The move came a day after Goldman Sachs Group Inc. executives underwent more than 10 hours of questioning by a congressional panel looking at Wall Street's role in the financial crisis.

New Zealand to Start New Financial Markets Regulator Next Year New Zealand will create a new financial markets regulator next year to improve monitoring of and enforcement of the nation's securities laws.
The Financial Markets Authority will be operating early next year and will take over all the work of the Securities Commission, Commerce Minister Simon Power said in a speech late in the day April 27. The new agency will also absorb monitoring roles held by the Ministry of Economic Development and the disciplinary powers of NZX Ltd., operator of the nation's stock exchange.
The new agency will enforce securities, financial reporting, and company law as they apply to financial services and securities markets, Power said. It will also regulate and oversee trustees, auditors, financial advisers and financial service providers including people who offer investments.
A board will be named shortly to design the structure of the new agency and legislation establishing the authority will be "fast-tracked" through parliament this year, Power said.
Singapore to License Bigger Hedge-Fund Firms Under New Rules
Hedge-fund firms in Singapore that manage more than S$250 million ($183 million) will need to be licensed under regulator proposals to increase oversight of the investment-management industry.
Singapore now has 138 single-strategy hedge-fund managers employing more than 800 professionals from near zero in 1997, according to a survey by the local chapter of the Alternative Investment Management Association.
Hedge-fund managers are currently exempt from holding a capital-markets services license provided they manage funds on behalf of 30 or fewer of what the Monetary Authority of Singapore describes as "qualified" investors. Under the proposals, managers with less than S$250 million won't need a license, though they will have to maintain a base capital of at least S$250,000.
The review is the most sweeping of the fund-management industry since the city-state introduced incentives to lure alternative asset managers in 2002. Singapore's hedge-fund industry has grown into Asia's second biggest behind Hong Kong.

Swiss to Discourage 'Excessive' Bonuses for Bankers
The Swiss government is planning to discourage "excessive" bankers' bonuses in the wake of the financial crisis and the state's rescue of UBS AG. The government blames the compensation system for fueling "excessive risk-taking," according to a statement yesterday on the government Web site.
The measures would include supervision of the salary systems of banks that are using government help as well as limits on the tax breaks lenders can claim on their bonus payments, the government said.
UBS spokesman Serge Steiner said the bank took note of the government's announcement, declining further comment.
The government also endorsed last week's report by a group of independent experts who suggested ways of limiting the risk that the country's biggest banks can pose to the wider economy, including the possible breakup, in an emergency, of Switzerland's two biggest banks.

China Will Keep Control of Bocom in Any Fund-Raising Plan
China's government will maintain control over Bank of Communications Co., part-owned by HSBC Holdings Plc., in the event of any fund raising, the Chinese lender said in a statement to the Hong Kong stock exchange today.
The bank last week received regulatory approval to raise as much as 42 billion yuan in a rights offer. HSBC holds 18.6 percent of the Shanghai-based bank.
Bocom, as the lender is known, said it aims to keep its capital adequacy ratio above 12 percent between 2010 and 2014 and maintain a core capital adequacy ratio of 8 percent.
Separately, China's government pledged to strengthen economic reform this year, including changes to the resources tax system and the restructuring of monopoly industries such as the postal service.
The State Council, or cabinet, also aims to improve the enterprise income tax and consumption tax systems, according to a statement posted on the official government Web site today after a meeting chaired by Premier Wen Jiabao yesterday.
The pricing system for resources including water, power, fuel and natural gas will also be changed and the government will gradually start charging for sewage, rubbish and medical waste treatment, according to the statement.
Power, railway and salt management will also be included in reform proposals for monopoly industries, the State Council said.

Deutsche Bank, RWE Searched in German Probe of CO2 Tax
German prosecutors searched Deutsche Bank AG and RWE AG in a raid on 230 offices and homes nationwide to investigate 180 million euros ($238 million) of tax evasion linked to emissions trading.
The Frankfurt Chief Prosecutor is investigating allegations that firms may have evaded value added tax when trading emission rights, Guenter Wittig, the prosecutor's spokesman, said yesterday in a statement.
The Frankfurt Chief Prosecutor's Office said it targeted 150 suspects at 50 companies and has frozen assets. Deutsche Bank, Germany's largest bank, and RWE, the country's second-biggest utility, said they are cooperating with the probe.
RWE AG's Supply & Trading offices were searched by police, RWE spokesman Michael Rosen said yesterday. The investigation concerns one company that had business relations with RWE Supply & Trading in 2009, according to Rosen. The company is not under suspicion, he said.

Goldman Sachs Said to Meet U.K. FSA Today Over Investigation
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. will meet regulators from the U.K. Financial Services Authority today to discuss how the agency's probe into the bank will progress, a person familiar with the investigation said.
It will be the first time Goldman Sachs and the agency have met to discuss the timetable of the probe, the person said, on condition of anonymity because the inquiry is confidential.
The firm has denied wrongdoing.
The FSA said earlier this month that it was investigating Goldman Sachs' London office after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed a lawsuit over the New York-based bank's marketing of a collateralized debt obligation.
A spokeswoman for Goldman Sachs in London wasn't immediately available to comment. Chris Hamilton, a spokesman for the FSA, declined to comment.
In another U.S. development concerning Goldman Sachs, the bank is in settlement talks with hedge fund Basis Yield Alpha Fund, which went bankrupt after investing $100 million in the Timberwolf mortgage-backed security sold by Goldman, the Financial Times reported, citing unidentified people familiar with the matter.
Timberwolf dropped in value after it was introduced in 2007, the newspaper said.
In Europe, the Autorite des Marches Financiers, France's financial-markets regulator, found no evidence that local fund- management companies bought Goldman Sachs Group Inc. products currently under investigation in the U.S. and U.K., according to an e-mailed statement from the AMF today.
The regulator began reviewing whether French investors had exposure to a Goldman Sachs-marketed CDO, known as Abacus 2007-AC1, tied to subprime mortgages after U.S. regulators sued the bank for fraud.
In addition, Germany's BaFin regulator said it will seek information from the SEC about the case.
A spokeswoman for the AMF didn't immediately return calls seeking comment.
Separately, Goldman Sachs may soon settle the fraud case brought against the bank by the Securities and Exchange Commission in a bid to end the legal battle, the New York Post reported, citing unidentified people familiar with the matter.
The firm is keen to avoid more negative publicity created by the release of additional e-mail and records from the firm, the newspaper said.
A Goldman spokesman declined to comment, the Post added.
Chi Mei Executive Agrees to Jail Sentence, Fine, U.S. Says

RBS Says Action Against Goldman on Abacus 'Premature'
Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc Chairman Philip Hampton said it would be "premature" for the bank to take legal action against Goldman Sachs Group Inc. over collateralized debt obligations called Abacus.
RBS is reviewing the Securities & Exchange Commission's case, he said.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown said on April 19 that legal action against Goldman Sachs was possible. Three days earlier, after the SEC filed a suit against the New York-based bank, citing fraud and misrepresentation in the marketing of a collateralized debt obligation called Abacus 2007-AC1.
RBS unwound a position in Abacus bought by its ABN Amro unit by paying Goldman $840.9 million, the SEC said.
Memphis-Area Man Indicted Over Wheat Futures Chicago Trades
MF Global Inc. former trader Evan Brent Dooley was indicted in Chicago yesterday on 16 counts of wire fraud and two of violating the federal Commodity Exchange Act's limit on speculative positions. The charges relate to unauthorized wheat futures trades, which cost the company $141 million in losses, prosecutors said.
Dooley, 42, of Olive Branch, Mississippi, was a broker at the Memphis office of MF Global. He made the trades on two nights in January and February 2008, executing them through the Chicago Board of Trade, prosecutors said.
Dooley's lawyer, identified by prosecutors as Keri Ambrosio of Chicago, didn't immediately reply to a voice-mail message seeking comment.
The case is U.S. v. Dooley, 1:10-cr-00335, U.S. District Court, Northern District of Illinois (Chicago).

Ex-AKO Hedge-Fund Trader Charged With Insider Trading
A former hedge-fund trader at AKO Capital LLP was charged by the U.K. financial regulator with insider trading in transactions involving 22 different shares.
Anjam Ahmad, 38, was charged with one count of conspiracy to commit insider dealing relating to trades between June and August 2009, the Financial Services Authority said in a statement yesterday. Ahmad was at AKO Capital until September 2009, according to the FSA's register.
The FSA is trying to stamp out insider trading after criticism from lawmakers that it wasn't doing enough to prevent the crime. Opposition Conservatives have threatened to disband the agency should they win next week's election.
Robert Brown, Ahmad's lawyer at London-based Corker Binning, declined to comment. Ahmad faces a maximum of seven years in jail if found guilty.

BA, Virgin Atlantic Weren't in a Cartel, Defense Lawyer Says
British Airways Plc didn't always tell Virgin Atlantic Airways Ltd. before raising fuel surcharges during a period of record oil prices, a defense lawyer said at a criminal price- fixing trial in London.
BA's eight-pound increase ($12.15) on June 23, 2005, wasn't discussed with Virgin and is proof the carriers had neither a consensus on prices nor a commitment to a cartel, lawyer Clare Montgomery told a jury yesterday in Southwark Crown Court. Virgin later decided on its own to match the increase, she said.
Three former BA executives and one current manager face claims by the U.K.'s antitrust regulator that they schemed with Virgin from July 2004 through April 2006 to keep surcharges as high as possible without losing customers. The U.K. criminalized antitrust violations in 2002.

Rorech Had Right to Give Information to Swap Buyer, Lawyer Says
Jon-Paul Rorech, a Deutsche Bank AG salesman, didn't break the law by giving information on a bond sale to a hedge-fund manager because he was allowed to share what he knew with customers, said Richard Strassberg, a defense lawyer, at the close of U.S. regulators' first trial alleging insider-trading of credit-default swaps.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission accuses Rorech, 39, of illegally feeding the information to Renato Negrin, 46, a former Millennium Partners LP portfolio manager, according to the civil complaint filed in May.
The case is Securities and Exchange Commission v. Rorech, 1:09-cv-04329, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).
Bill Clinton Says He Is 'Not at All Sure' Goldman Broke Law
Former President Bill Clinton said he's skeptical Goldman Sachs Group Inc. broke the law, though the government's lawsuit against the firm highlights the proliferation of financial transactions with "no underlying merit." The lack of merit in the transaction is what we need to look at, Clinton said, referring to the April 16 Securities and Exchange Commission suit alleging Goldman Sachs misled investors in a mortgage-linked investment.
He made the remarks yesterday at a conference on the federal budget in Washington.
Weiss Says Goldman Hearing Drives Public Toward Overhaul
Stephen Weiss of Leerink Swann & Co., a health-care bank, and author of "The Billion Dollar Mistake," talked with Bloomberg's Betty Liu and Peter Cook about Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations' April 27 hearing on Goldman Sachs Group Inc.
Weiss also discussed the possibility of new regulations over conflicts of interest at financial institutions and the relationship between Washington lawmakers and Wall Street firms.

Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA, Spain's second-biggest bank, said it's too "chancy" to make any decision on placing restrictions on hiring Goldman Sachs Group Inc. because investigations are still going on.
Angel Cano, president and chief operating officer of the Bilbao, Spain-based bank, made the comments to reporters in Madrid yesterday when asked if it planned to restrict using Goldman Sachs.
Ortel Says Government Is 'Waging War on Capitalism'
Charles Ortel, managing director of Newport Value Partners, talks with Bloomberg's Deirdre Bolton and Keith McCullough about the performance of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, which grilled current and former executives of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. yesterday.
Ortel also discusses the performance of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the role of the U.S. public in structuring regulatory policy.
Schwartz, McCaughan Comment on Goldman, Reform, at Conference
The Obama administration's proposal to bar banks from owning private-equity and hedge funds may ease concerns that Wall Street is working against its customers, said James McCaughan, chief executive officer of Principal Global Investors. Greater transparency is crucial to restoring the confidence of individual investors, he said.
McCaughan made the comments April 27 in an interview at the Milken Institute Global Conference in Beverly Hills, California, where attendees, including financiers, philanthropists and government officials, have debated the merits and parameters of the proposed investment regulation.
Alan Schwartz, former chief executive officer of Bear Stearns Cos. commented at the conference about the financial crisis and Goldman Sachs Group Inc.'s ability to weather criticisms following fraud allegations by U.S. regulators.
Schwartz is now executive chairman of investment firm Guggenheim Partners.

Philips CEO Extends Efficiency Plan to Counter Headwinds
Royal Philips NV Chief Executive Officer Frans Van Houten pledged to extend an efficiency drive to bolster margins as the Dutch company grapples with "ongoing headwinds" for achieving this year's targets.
Healthcare reform in the U.S. and slow commercial real-estate markets are hampering business and the fourth-quarter performance will be key for reaching financial targets set for the year, Van Houten said on a call. Philips, which today also announced a buyback program totalling 1.5 billion euros ($2 billion), dropped as much as 3.5 percent in Amsterdam trading.
"If it was a walk in the park, we would have talked differently about it," the CEO said, adding that Philips is committed to reaching the targets.
The 122-year-old company is in the midst of a program called Accelerate!, which includes cutting 6,700 jobs and trimming 1.1 billion euros in costs by 2014. Van Houten is also pushing Philips toward more profitable LED lighting, while phasing out the audio and video devices that are the Amsterdam-based company's heritage.
The company today set a target for cumulative annual sales growth of 4 percent to 6 percent from 2014 to 2016, with an earnings before interest, taxes and amortization (Ebita) margin of 11 percent to 12 percent. That compares with a previous target of 10 percent to 12 percent.
Portfolio Checks
Shares of the maker of scanners and electric toothbrushes traded 2.3 percent lower at 24.35 euros as of 11:27 a.m. in the Dutch capital.
Philips regularly assesses its portfolio to make sure that all units create value, Van Houten said at a presentation today in London.
"What we will not do is hang on to businesses just to hang on to them," he said.
As part of his push into higher-margin areas such as lighting products, health-care equipment and wellness offerings, Van Houten has sold consumer assets such as the DVD and music-player businesses for which the company was known in the past.
"The targets are balanced, responsible, and able to deal with some contingencies," such as fluctuations in market growth and price erosion, said Van Houten, who became CEO in 2011. Three to four percentage points of profitability gains will be balanced by one-time restructuring costs and investments in organic growth, he said.
More to Come
"As we progress towards the mid-term targets, you will challenge us, ask us can we do more, can we go faster," he said.
Philips targets an Ebita margin of 16 percent to 17 percent at the medical unit which makes hospital scanners and other medical equipment. The consumer unit, which makes electric shavers, coffee machines and rice cookers is expected to have profitability of 11 percent to 13 percent, with lighting generating a margin of 9 percent to 11 percent.
"We expect the near-term reaction to be one of mild disappointment: realistically, a 1-2 percentage point group margin upgrade after all that has occurred, in terms of cost reduction and divestment, seems unduly conservative," Ben Uglow, an analyst at Morgan Stanley, said in a note.

Queuin' in the rain: Cannes 2012 hits the halfway mark
It's generally a sign of a lukewarm film festival when the principal point of conversation across the Croisette is not which A-list auteur just set the Competition afire, which out-of-competition sleeper is one to watch for future months, or even the surreal sight of ill-fated US "X Factor" judge Cheryl Cole walking the red carpet for, of all things, the new Michael Haneke movie, but the rather more mundane topic of the weather.
Admittedly, it's quite some weather: where festivalgoers can usually count on catching a bit of a tan as they queue up in balmy Mediterranean conditions for the day's hot ticket, this year we'll merely settle for staying dry. It is, according to those in the know, the wettest Cannes on record -- which makes the prospect of sitting in a dark room watching even the most gruelling festival fare a more appealing prospect than usual. If you can get into the room in the first place, that is. Whether it's down to increased accreditation numbers or this year's Hollywood-heavy lineup, the festival feels more crowded this year than in either of the previous years I've attended -- a reality that hit yesterday as I was turned away from three consecutive screenings, as the white- and pink-badged elite filled the theaters before the lowlier classes could get a look-in.
That, however, has merely been a side frustration to a festival that, so far, has been a tad short on truly buzz-worthy films. With today marking the midpoint of the 12-day festival, 13 of the 22 Competition films have now been unwrapped -- and while several of them have been well-received, a bona fide sensation has yet to emerge. As indeed does a truly spectacular flameout, or a controversial lightning-rod of the variety that Lars von Trier or Gaspar Noe can be counted on to produce. That's not necessarily a bad thing -- the politeness of this year's hits and misses so far has arguably resulted in friendlier, more measured critical conversation than usual -- but with six days to go, we're still waiting to be surprised.
Certainly, the names currently leading the Palme d'Or conversation are very drawn from the pool of usual suspects. "Amour," Michael Haneke's supremely accomplished drama about the indignities of mortality, is the film that has most united critics thus far, prompting much speculation that it could land the austere Austrian formalist his second straight Palme, just three years after "The White Ribbon" scooped the same prize. I'll save my thoughts on the film for a later piece, but based on what we've seen so far, it'd be a worthy if slightly safe winner: typically immaculate, and more humane than his recent run of works, it nonetheless doesn't quite represent peak form for a director whose standards are higher than most. A likelier outcome, I think, is a brace of acting awards for its marvelous veteran stars, Jean-Louis Trintignant and Emmanuelle Riva -- which would be an appropriate way of rewarding the film without over-filling Haneke's cup.
Just behind Haneke on the chart of Palme frontrunners is Jacques Audiard -- yes, it could be 2009 all over again, when "The White Ribbon" pipped Audiard's "A Prophet" to the top prize. Audiard's latest, dazzling, dark-hued misfit romance "Rust and Bone," has more detractors than "Amour," largely because it's the more formally aggressive work -- but its champions, particularly within the European critical community, are passionate and plentiful, and the film has retained its buzz since screening on Day Two of the fest. (It's even supplied Cannes 2012 with its unofficial theme song in the chlamydia-catchy form of Katy Perry's "Firework.") At this point, it's hard to imagine it leaving the festival empty-handed, whether the beneficiary is beloved star Marion Cotillard or Audiard himself.
Beyond those two giants, every other Competition film that's screened so far comes with some caveat or another. "Moonrise Kingdom" is another of the festival's most well-liked titles, and served its opening-night purpose dandily of getting everyone in a good mood for the tougher stuff to come -- but it's surely too lightweight for the Palme. (Already, it feels as if it screened a month ago.) The only other American film to have screened in Competition, "Lawless," seems even less likely: mainstream genre films are rarely embraced by festival juries, and reviews haven't been ecstatic enough to lift it out of that ghetto. (That goes for any potential Oscar attention too: classy late-summer hit status appears to be the ceiling on this one.)
A rumor was doing the rounds at a party tonight that the jury was wowed by Thomas Vinterberg's "The Hunt," a drama about a kindergarten teacher accused of paedophilia. I haven't seen it yet myself, but while reviews have been mixed, those who like it are very keen indeed -- even if talk of the jury's affections are exaggerated, pencil in star Mads Mikkelsen as a Best Actor possibility.
The only other film about which I've heard word of the jury's response is Cristian Mungiu's "Beyond the Hills," which apparently prompted a standing ovation from at least two of the nine jurors. The Romanian's follow-up to the Palme d'Or-winning "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days" has enjoyed a splintered critical reception, opinions ranging from "masterpiece" to "crushing disappointment" -- but not a soul seems to think it's in the same league as "4 Months." (I'm just about in the pro camp myself, though more on the strength of its formal construction than its slightly self-regarding moral languor ) It'd be a perverse choice of Palme winner -- but if the film does indeed have a small core of jury support, Best Director or a Jury Prize seems likely for a film in which Mungiu is really the star.
Abbas Kiarostami is another auteur who has, for many critics, put both feet wrong this time: his enigmatic, Tokyo-set puzzler "Like Someone in Love" was hyped by many as the film to beat before the festival (with many taking note of jury president Nanni Moretti's on-the-record adoration for the Iranian's work), but reportedly received the loudest boos of the festival so far. (As my Variety review explains, I found the film a bit of a trifle, though an extraordinarily well-made one.) Even if Moretti's loyalty to Kiarostami sticks, it's hard to imagine the majority of the jury agreeing with him.
This morning, 89 year-old Alain Resnais was the second straight veteran in Competition to receive a hard time from the press: the pedigree of "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet" made it a mighty Palme d'Or threat until it actually screened, with the consensus this morning being that it's too specialized, too archly rooted in French theatrical tradition, to win over many non-Gallic viewers.
Other films already screened in Competition include such as Matteo Garrone's "Reality," Ken Loach's "The Angels' Share," Hong Sang-soo's "In Another Country," Ulrich Seidl's "Paradise: Love" (for which I seem to have more time than others) and seemingly every Cannes critic's default choice for worst of the fest, Yousry Nasrallan's dreary political soap opera "Liberty." None of them seems much of a threat for the Palme; indeed, it's the Nasrallah name that has been bandied about most for the annual Cannes critics' sport of saying who does and doesn't belong in Competition.
If Nasrallah, most would agree, hasn't earned a spot in future Competition lineups, one whom many critics would like to see there instead is Pablo Larrain, whose excellent political comedy "No" has been building positive word-of-mouth on the Croisette since its first screening on Thursday. It is one the few notable stories to have emerged from this year's Directors' Fortnight and Critics' Week selections, with critics emphasising the accessibility of its story and a return-to-form performance from Gael Garcia Bernal. Un Certain Regard, meanwhile, is particularly quiet this year -- after last year's impressive selection included "Miss Bala," "Elena" and "Martha Marcy May Marlene," only "Beasts of the Southern Wild," which already had heat from Sundance, is generating equivalent buzz. It'd be nice to see these strands, too, receive a jolt in the next six days, with a little sunshine to go with it. Until then.

A three-wave longitudinal study conducted with preadolescent boys and girls (N = 231 at Time 1 [T1]) was used to assess the hypotheses that aspects of social withdrawal would be predictors of a "snowball" cascade of depressed affect, and that friendship experiences would moderate these effects. Consistent with these hypotheses, multilevel modeling showed that measures of avoidance and exclusion at T1 were associated with concurrent levels of depressed affect and were antecedent to escalating trajectories of depressed affect over time. These accelerating growth curves fit a snowball cascade model. The analyses also showed the protective effects of friendship. Specifically, the snowball effect was limited to avoidant and excluded children who were friendless. Depressed affect did not increase among avoidant and excluded children who were friended.

I'm making an application in Java using Eclipse Indigo. When I run it using Eclipse the Task Manager shows javaw.exe is using 50mb of memory. When I export the application as a runnable .jar and execute the .jar the Task Manager shows javaw.exe is using 500mb. Why is this? How could I fix this?
Edit: I'm using a Windows 7 64 bit, and my system says I have Java 1.7 installed. Apparently the memory problem is caused by a while loop. I'll study what's inside the while loop causing the problem.
Edit: Problem found. At one point in the while loop new BufferedImage instances where created, instead of replacing the same BufferedImage. Thanks for the replies.

When a blackout brought the Super Bowl to a grinding halt this February, Oreo became one of the most celebrated brands in a pricey, advertising-packed evening, all thanks to a tweet.
The cookie brand was able to put together an image encouraging fans to "dunk in the dark," and send it out on Twitter within minutes – attracting kudos for the kind of real-time response that marketers need to stay relevant in a social media age.
The century-old brand got its digital cachet that night thanks to three years of work with New York-based agency 360i, on a strategy to help Oreo connect with younger consumers. Now, the Dentsu Inc.-owned agency, known for creating campaigns based on real-time data that it tracks in the digital world, is coming to Canada.
On Thursday, 360i is expected to announce its Canadian expansion in conjunction with DentsuBos, the Toronto- and Montreal-based agency that was acquired by Dentsu last June. A team of six 360i employees will work out of the DentsuBos offices helping 360i clients expand their work to Canada and also helping DentsuBos clients do more work in digital and social media. The 360i name will also be added to the agency doors.
It is the second market in 360i's international expansion, which began with the opening of an office in London this January. That team has since expanded from five to 18 people.
"In Canada, we're a bit behind in terms of sophistication on data," DentsuBos president Claude Carrier said in an interview Wednesday. "It may be a matter of size, and what it costs to fully integrate that. More and more, what we see with our clients here is a desire to take a step forward and understand how to use communications in more effective ways. One of the things we really value in the 360i brand is how they've built their expertise on data and analytics."
Sending out the tweet may seem flippant, but Oreo's win in February took serious work. The agency set up a "war room" for its client that night, allowing them to monitor social media analytics together, see where the conversation was, and react with lightning speed. Because clients still have to be cautious about messaging on social media, that meant having the legal team pre-approve guidelines for their Twitter activity. The fast-paced digital environment means that brands need to be highly organized but also decisive, in order to succeed.
Another example of 360i's work is last fall's Bacon Barter, a campaign for Oscar Mayer's new bacon product, that sent a man from New York to Los Angeles with only a refrigerated truck full of bacon to barter for everything he needed, including food and lodgings. The campaign came out of the agency's research that showed people online were discussing bacon regularly, but rarely the companies that sell it.
The agency promoted the stunt on YouTube, Twitter and Facebook. It also earned 336 million media impressions, or views of news stories on the campaign. According to the agency, this translated to a 41 per cent increase in positive sentiment for the brand. And the trip was a success, with 2,168 bricks of bacon exchanged for various goods and services from the eastern seaboard to the California coast.
"A lot of clients think of digital as something you see on a PC," said 360i chief executive officer Bryan Wiener. "Bacon Barter was really an experiential campaign, but it's leveraging the power of digital – with the scale that would be impossible without it – both to create the experience and also promote the experience. Oscar Mayer didn't say, 'Give me an idea that fits in a screen.' "
In the months leading up to its Canadian launch, 360i brought client work from the U.S. and is already working on campaigns here for Coca-Cola and Scotts Miracle-Gro. DentsuBos has also been meeting with clients to discuss its new digital capabilities, and is already working on a building a social media presence for Lexus here.
"They had absolutely no social media presence, and we sat down with the [360i] folks in New York to have a discussion about what it meant, what it could do for the brand, what's the tone ... out of that, it was quite immediate, that they said 'We need to do this,'" Mr. Carrier said. "There's way more that we're planning."
"Ultimately an agency, in this highly disruptive changing market, has to figure out how they're going to serve and come up with programs that are going to connect brands with consumers," Mr. Wiener said.Report Typo/Error

GSD Course Bulletin - Fall 2012
This term's information was last refreshed on 12 MAY 2015 14:54:06.
Courses taught by Luis Rodrigo Callejas Mujica
01211: Landscape Architecture III: Third Semester Core Studio (STU 0121100)
Landscape Architecture
Core Studio - 8 credits
Tuesday Thursday 12:30 - 6:00
Pierre Bélanger, Philippe Coignet, Robert Pietrusko, Luis Rodrigo Callejas Mujica, Kelly Doran, Rosetta Elkin, Juan Rois, Niall Kirkwood
Course Description
Addressing the inertia of urban planning and the overexertion of civil engineering in the 20th century, this course focuses on the design of large, complex, contaminated brownfield sites with a regional, ecological and infrastructural outlook. Employing the agency of regional ecology and landscape infrastructure as the dominant drivers of design, the studio involves the development of biodynamic and biophysical systems that provide flexible yet directive patterns for future urbanization. Through a series of contemporary mapping methods, field measures, case studies, readings and design investigations, the course results in a series of collaborative exercises leading to a large scale design project and future scenarios. Drawing from canonical case studies on regional reclamation strategies from across the world, the studio is further enhanced by a robust, regional representation program. Focusing on the metrics of geospatial representation and remote sensing, two intensive workshops throughout the term of the studio didactically deal with the interrelated subjects of regional cartography and site topography as operative and telescopic instruments of design across scales. Contributing to a complex, multi-layered profiling of the site as 'system' and the reformulation of program as 'process', the studio establishes a base platform for engaging an array of complex issues related to site contamination, biophysical systems, regional ecology, land cover, urban infrastructure and economic geography. Precluding conventional forms of urban development such as housing or retail development, the penultimate objective of the course is to explore and articulate the potential effectiveness of broader and longer range strategies where biophysical systems prefigure as the denominator for re-envisioning public infrastructures and regional urban economies in the future.
09122: Plugged-in Territories I: Icelandic Energy Landscapes (ADV 0912200)
Landscape Architecture
Seminar - 4 credits - Limited enrollment
Monday 10:00 - 1:00 40 Kirkland 1D
Luis Rodrigo Callejas Mujica
Course Description
This advanced research seminar investigates the spatial and ecological implications of the recent shifts in the cultural perception of energy exploitation in Iceland.
The Icelandic landscape is facing increased pressure in a geopolitical situation where energy policies lead to infrastructural development and ecological adaptation. The opportunities to creates new forms of integration between energy exploitation and enjoyment of the landscape are unique to this geologically active territory.
Students will be developing research divided in two groups representing the apparent extremes of the polarized arena:
- Islands: Penetrable infrastructures.
The environmentalist: They propose a radical reduction in energy exploitation and slowing down the insertion of new power plants. Their argument is mainly based on the fact that for a population of roughly three hundred thousand, the existent infrastructure is already more than enough to deal with local needs. The group will work on speculating new forms in which energy production, distribution and exploitation may be successfully linked to the intense tourism received by the island. The group will try to prove that the existing possibilities of tourist-based landscape events, may generate and replace the income produced by the future power plants located in highly sensible environments.
- Atolls: Belts for ecological integration.
The energy entrepreneurs: They propose new hydro and geothermal plants in order to be able to increase the aluminum melting capabilities of the country and possibly an underwater cable to link the country to the European energy grid. These will require the construction of new mid and large scale infrastructure in some of the most ecologically sensitive areas in the country.
The group will try to prove that the current plans for new geothermal and hydro power plant infrastructure can be effectively linked to new forms of public realm with the capacity to act as buffer zones between exploitation and the delicate environments.
Relevant cases: Alcoa aluminum power facilities and Kárahnjúkastífla Dam.
The course will elaborate research in the form of two products:
- An online platform of interactive maps aiming to open up to the public the not so obvious implication of the insertion of the new energy infrastructure.
- An atlas of techniques of multiple scale, speculating the way in which landscapes designers and Architects can effectively create buffer zones located at the core sites of geothermal and hydro energy exploitation process, triggering new forms of enjoyment of such a unique and ecologically sensitive landscapes.
The course will also include the participation of relevant thinkers, designers and activists that are now investigating the intersections between energy exploitation, tourism and it's particular cultural and ecological implications in Iceland.
