The start of trading in bond forwards in China is a necessary step towards a more open market, but underlying markets are still too illiquid to allow other derivatives to be traded, said HSBC treasurer for China David Liao.Trading in bond fowards opened last week on the Shanghai market, a move back towards liberalisation after the derivatives clampdowns by the Chinese government in 1995 and 1999.
Any licensed bank or corporation can now trade bond forwards with a contract length of less than 365 days, so long as the size of the contracts falls within a limit set by the buyer's own capital strength. But further classes of derivatives will probably have to wait for the underlying market to evolve, Liao said.
"The key to the success of China's financial market is to promote a liquid and representative underlying market. I expect the primary focus by regulators would be to continue to work on the liquidity of existing markets, such as the government bond market, People's Bank of China bill market and money market," Liao told RiskNews. "Once these markets are liquid and representative, you would have a useful foundation to build credible fixings for a swap market, credit spreads for corporate bonds, etc," he added.
The opening up of the bond futures market follows the publication last year of the China Banking Regulatory Commission's long-awaited derivatives regulations. The new rules mean that licensed local and foreign banks can trade derivatives on their own account. Previously, derivatives could only be used for hedging and not for speculative purposes.
The regulations also allow foreign banks to carry out business with domestic corporate clients in China. Previously, they could only trade foreign-currency denominated derivatives with Chinese institutions that had appropriate foreign exchange licenses (See: Asia Risk, September 2004, page 32; December, page 6)).
However, despite the new regulatory framework, the situation is still not entirely clear, said Liao. "The derivatives regulation stipulated by the China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) specifies that license holders can trade derivatives for profit. However, the environment for a derivatives market in China is not entirely clear, as corresponding regulations for insurance companies, securities companies and funds are governed under different regulatory bodies, and have yet to appear," he said. "Products are also governed under different regulators, so the process to obtain approval is still unclear for cases where, for example, a bank (governed under CBRC) tries to structure an overseas equity index product (governed by the China Securities Regulatory Commission)."

HoopsHype New York Knicks + Trade rumors
What's far more likely is that the long rumored Amar'e Stoudemire to Philadelphia deal gets done at the deadline. The Sixers take on Stoudemire's $23 million salary cap number, which pushes them way over the minimum. They would only owe him roughly 30 percent of his remaining contract, so they'd end up paying him $7 million in cash and likely extract a draft pick or a rookie scale player for their troubles. Flexibility in the NBA is currency – both figuratively and literally. The 76ers will likely meet the floor; they just are not incentivized in any way to do it before the trade deadline. Basketball Insiders
Sam Amick: As part of the deal, I'm told, the Knicks have told Quincy Acy they will guarantee his deal for next season ($915k) - usatoday.com/story/sports/n… Twitter @sam_amick
Frank Isola: Hearing rumblings Knicks may still trade Prigioni. Say it ain't so Phil. Twitter @FisolaNYDN
The New York Knicks will trade guard Wayne Ellington, forward Jeremy Tyler and a 2016 second-round pick to the Sacramento Kings for forwards Quincy Acy and Travis Outlaw, people with knowledge of the situation told USA TODAY Sports. USA Today Sports
As part of the deal, the Knicks agreed to remove the protection (picks 31-37) on the 2016 second-round draft pick they sent to Sacramento in 2013. USA Today Sports
The Kings are expected to waive Tyler and could use the stretch provision on Ellington, who is owed $2.77 million next season, to improve their salary cap situation. But that final decision has not been made. USA Today Sports
John Schuhmann: Seeing now that the guarantee date on Acy's $915K was extended to Aug. 15. So Knicks can waive him. Tyler's $948K was also non-g'teed tho. Twitter @johnschuhmann
Marc Stein: How 'bout a Knicks rumble? I'm told they're trying to find a new home for Pablo Prigioni as well as Wayne Ellington to create roster room Twitter @ESPNSteinLine
Marc Stein: Attempts to move Ellington solo have been unsuccessful, so Knicks said to be weighing prospect of attaching Prigioni to deal as a catalyst. NOT a case of Knicks not liking Prigioni. It's more NYK being unable to move Ellington unless they attach likes of Prigioni or Shane Larkin Twitter @ESPNSteinLine
You see, Lowry was only a first-round draft pick away from being traded to the New York Knicks in mid-December. It was this close to happening. According to a source familiar with the Raptors' thinking, there were three likely scenarios on the table involving Knicks guards Iman Shumpert and Tim Hardaway Jr., with Lowry being the only Raptors player in the deal. The clincher would have been a future first-round pick to the Raptors, but team owner James Dolan vetoed it and the trade fell through, a denial confirmed by a source close to the Knicks. Bleacher Report
The Knicks recently attempted to make a trade for Minnesota Timberwolves star Kevin Love, offering forward Amar'e Stoudemire and his enormous expiring contract, second-year guard Tim Hardaway, Jr. and swingman Iman Shumpert, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. But the longshot offer, made in the past week, was declined and never stood much of a chance, particularly since the Timberwolves could potentially strike a richer deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers involving No. 1 overall pick Andrew Wiggins. The Chicago Bulls, who have a bevy of intriguing assets to trade, have reportedly had conversations with Minnesota about Love in recent weeks since failing to sign Knicks star Carmelo Anthony in free agency. Wall Street Journal
Working to clear the logjam in the backcourt, the Knicks are discussing their potential trade options with guards J.R. Smith, Iman Shumpert and Shane Larkin, a league source said Sunday. "They're working on trying to make a move in the backcourt," the NBA source familiar with the Knicks' thinking said. ESPN.com
JR Smith appeared on ESPN2's "First Take" on Wednesday, talked about the Knicks' glut at shooting guard and said he "wouldn't blame" team president Phil Jackson and the Knicks if the team had decided to trade him last season. "No. Absolutely not. The way I was playing, I was playing like a person who didn't want to be there," Smith said. "Not looking as focused as a person should be in that situation that we were, in the trenches. I wouldn't blame them at all." ESPN.com
Marc Stein: Melo's new deal with Knicks also includes player option entering fifth season, 15-percent trade kicker and aforementioned no-trade clause Twitter @ESPNSteinLine
Marc Stein: Melo joins Kobe, Duncan, Dirk and KG as only players possessing full no-trade clause. KG's indeed carried over when dealt from Celts to Nets Twitter @ESPNSteinLine
Marc Stein: So how did Melo score only fifth full no-trade clause in the NBA when he's only been with the Knicks for 3 1/2 seasons? Here's how: NBA rules state that players must have eight years of service time and four with the same team to get a no-trade clause. But becuase Melo has finished four straight seasons with Knicks, that is essentially treated as having spent the minimum four years at MSG. Twitter @ESPNSteinLine
The Knicks re-signed Cole Aldrich, but the Smith signing could affect the status of Jeremy Tyler, who has a team option and is on the summer league squad. Jackson still believes he has too many guards and may have to cut Wayne Ellington if he can't trade him for a big man. New York Post
Carmelo Anthony already ahead of Phil Jackson, but still far away from the all-time New York greats.

Dean's Desk: Dental school views and news from our dean
Approaching the changes in academic dentistry and health care as opportunities for creative strategizing in 2012
|Dr. Lawrence E. Wolinsky, dean, Texas A&M Health Science Center Baylor College of Dentistry
Photo by Steven Doll
For months, I looked forward to assuming the position of dean at Texas A&M Health Science Center Baylor College of Dentistry. Shortly after starting my tenure at the college, I can say I am truly honored to be a part of this special community of faculty, students, staff, alumni, donors, parents and friends. Your hard work and commitment to excellence have defined TAMHSC-BCD as a premier institution of dental education.
As I walked into the dental school the morning of Sept. 1, I thought about the 15 deans who came before me and the extraordinary legacy they have left for all of us to steward. It was at once humbling and energizing.
I believe our college is singularly equipped to find creative and thoughtful ways of addressing the challenges facing dental education and the country's changing health care system. I welcome the opportunity to work with you as we take on those challenges.
So where do we begin? Let's look at these challenges as opportunities for positive growth and change. I believe that thoughtful listening followed by strategic planning and assessment is the indispensable foundation of good leadership, and that is where I will put my focus in the coming months.
I do want to hear from as many of you as possible — your ideas, concerns and dreams for TAMHSC-BCD. For those alumni, parents and friends I have not met, I look forward to the opportunity to get to know each of you as the 2011-2012 academic year progresses.
On that note, the start of each academic year is a time of high energy and high expectation. Never have I looked forward to a new year more than this one that we've begun together.
A new addition to the Baylor Dental Record Online ... and BCD website
This message from the dental school's dean, Dr. Lawrence E. Wolinsky, is one of several you will get to read in the Baylor Dental Record Online throughout the year. As new college-wide initiatives develop, these columns will give you the opportunity to read about our dean's perspective on some of Texas A&M Health Science Center Baylor College of Dentistry's most pertinent news.
You can see this introductory column, and learn more about the dean's background and vision for the dental school in the About the Dean page of the TAMHSC-BCD website.

There is a mystery in The Dinosaur Feather [2]but the main focus of this Danish novel is the character development. Anna Bella Nor is working furiously on her PhD dissertation. Then one of her academic advisors, Dr. Lars Helland, is found dead with her thesis on his lap. Anna deals with the police detective, and her toddler while she worries about her studies. Along the way she discovers some unsettling truths about her childhood, and then starts to investigate the murder herself. I enjoyed this award winning mystery and I'll look forward to any future translations of S.J. Gazan's work.

Lost in Maze Hill?
A curious little story erupted while I was away, with a proposal to rename Maze Hill station "East Greenwich". Commenters on the greenwich.co.uk website generally didn't seem too keen on the idea. While I can see why local traders might not be too happy with a slightly cryptic name for their railway station, I also think it should stay as it is.
I'd imagine, to be honest, that people who are confused by a train station not having a place name in its title would still get lost anyway, purely because it's not on the Tube network. (I say this after trying to guide some pals to The Pilot Inn on Saturday night, who had to travel there by 108 bus from north of the river and duly, and inexplicably, ended up at the Holiday Inn roundabout in an awful tizz.)
Maze Hill's also the local station for a great chunk of Blackheath, it's referred to in Joseph Conrad's The Secret Agent, and a large part of east Greenwich is also served by Westcombe Park station down the line. Another suggestion, to call it "Greenwich Park", could also risk confusion – for much of the park is closer to Greenwich station. (A long-buried branch line to a station called Greenwich Park lies underneath the Hotel Ibis and behind Royal Hill.)
Maybe the only way around it would be to rename Greenwich as "West Greenwich" and then Maze Hill as "East Greenwich", but then that's getting complicated. Station renamings tend to leave a funny taste in the mouth anyway – older south Londoners still greet mention of "Surrey Quays" with a long, withering stare. Perhaps one way to boost things could be to shift the zone 2/3 boundary from Greenwich to Maze Hill to encourage onward travel and align it with North Greenwich Tube station. That's a whole new can of worms, although that doesn't mean it shouldn't be investigated.
What does intrigue me, though, is how the east side of Greenwich is starting to get an identity of its own. I grew up there, and "east Greenwich" was only ever used to emphasise its (then) ungentrified nature, compared with posher west Greenwich, or in reference to the old gas works. Otherwise, it was all just "Greenwich", whether you were nearer Farmdale Road or Langdale Road.
Now with a traders' association representing local businesses, and plans for a "cultural corridor" for 2012, together with continuing redevelopment along the Peninsula, there's plenty of laudable efforts to make the east side sing as loudly as the west side, together with efforts by groups like Stream Arts to commemorate the history and communities of the area. If these efforts continue, then slowly, but surely, the east will carry on rising. And then everyone will know where Maze Hill station leads to.

I vote against – in my opinion it's far more confusing to have multiple stations with the same place name in them.
I think this would be as tragic as the long-ago, equally utilitarian renaming of the evocative Nightingale Lane tube station, which became… Clapham South, a name that seems to land with a thud.
I do hope the Maze Hill name stays. If it ain't broke…
When my parents moved to West Greenwich 45 years ago the area was far from posh but it was always West Greenwich and the West Greenwich Library and West Greenwich House (now imaginatively renamed Greenwich House West, when I last noticed) served to underline the difference. And while you were hanging around outside the Pilot wondering where your mates had got to, you would have seen the sign "New East Greenwich, Ceylon Place" outside. So the division or Greenwich West and East is not recent by any means.
But back on topic: I still take a map with me if I don't know where I'm going. No need at all to change the name: if people can't find Maze Hill on a map, or with a satnav device, or by asking people, then quite frankly there is no hope for them. That Pole Conrad managed to find it (The Secret Agent) so I don't see why people should suddenly have lost the ability to do the same.

text: You start your best five guys. I think Brent Smith is the best LG in May, but please remember, Mr. Smith's durability was always a question until he made through last season. I think BS greatest value is as the first sub off the bench, giving a veteran presence to the guard and tackle positions. I think you rotate LG with Adrian Jones early in the season, getting to a 50/50 time split by the tenth game. Brent will be in the running for Mckensies RT job next year

Customer Reviews
June 2014
My friend and I loved the combo Auckland Highlights and Wilderness Eco-Tour. Dion was our guide in the morning. He was very kind, professional and enthusiastic about showing us a great overview of Auckland. Sean was our guide in the afternoon. He was equally as nice, informative, enthusiastic and professional. We loved every minute of the tour. It was a great way to spend our first day in New Zealand and our only day in Auckland. I would highly recommend this tour company and would definitely look them up again when returning to N.Z.
March 2014
Our guide, Dawn, picked us up promptly from our hotel and proceeded to share her knowledge and enthusiasm for Aukland the entire time! We made fun stops and felt we had a wonderful overview of Aukland including the coast, suburbs, fish market, eco sanctuary and so much more. Great day and one we would really recommend to those on short visits to Aukland.

Posts tagged: bail hearings
Two men from Canada arrested with 159 pounds of Ecstasy near the United States border will stay in the Spokane County Jail without bail, a judge ruled today.
Christopher S. Stocken, 31, and Joshua J. Bird, 23, who are cousins and members of the Little Black Bear tribe, don't have a stable release plan to ensure their presence in court, U.S. Magistrate Cynthia Imbrogno said.
Family members traveled from Regina, Saskatchewan, for the hearing in U.S. District Court in Spokane this morning.
Stocken is unemployed but works seasonal odd jobs, his lawyer said. He has a warrant in Canada related to a drunken driving conviction, and Bird also has a drunken driving conviction. But neither man has any criminal history that indicated they're a risk to the community, lawyers said.
Imbrogno noted the seriousness of the charges when granting the U.S. Attorney's Office's motions to detain Stocken and Bird.
The suspects, who have not yet been indicted, face charges of possession with intent to distribute Ecstasy and importation of Ecstasy.
Border patrol agents found the men with five backpacks after they crossed into the country illegally from Canada on Friday. Investigators estimate the Ecstasy tablets to be worth $4.5 million.
A Canadian man arrested with 71 pounds of cocaine near the international border last month will ask a judge to grant him bail next week.
Jonathan Darren Smith, 39, filed a motion this week through his attorney, Jeffrey Niesen, asking to be released from jail pending trial. A hearing is scheduled next Wednesday before U.S. Magistrate Cynthia Imbrogno.
Smith is a former professional rugby player who played on the Canadian Rugby Junior National team in 1990 and 1994.
Known as Darren or "Grundy,".Smith's family said in letters that he is in "very poor health" after many concussions and a stroke five years ago that left him disabled on the left side of his body.
"His devotion to the togetherness of our family and his commitment to creating meaningful connections with our family is incredible," a cousin wrote.
Wrote Smith's uncle, "If we had more people like Darren then there would be less strife in the world and more understanding."
Smith worked construction for 16 years before suffering the stroke in March 2006. His criminal history includes a conviction in Canada for failing to declare currency while entering the country, as well as a drunken driving charge that's still pending.
Smith was born and raised in Kelowna, where his father currently resides, but lived at a home owned by his brother in Whistler, B.C. prior to his arrest on Feb. 16.
A border patrol agent spotted him on the east side of Highway 395 "frantically trying to climb the snowy berm at the edge of the roadway," near the Laurier border crossing, according to federal court documents. Investigators found 30 individually wrapped, sealed packages (pictured) of cocaine in two backpacks.
Smith has pleaded not guilty to intent to distribute 5 kilograms or more of cocaine, which carries a mandatory minimum of 10 years in prison.
A Cheney man who distributed child pornography using his former co-worker's stolen identity is back in jail.
John Alan Harmon, 57, was ordered held without bail this morning on federal allegations that he distributed child pornography last January and in October 2009. The sex offender left prison in 2005 after serving about three years for the same crime.
His lawyer, Bevan Maxey, said Harmon has strong ties to Cheney and will show up for court if he's out of jail, but U.S. Magistrate Cynthia Imbrogno said he needed a more structured release plan before he could be released.
"There is not issue as far as risk of flight. The issue in this case is risk to the community," Imbrogno said. "My impression is Mr. Harmon is really trying, but these alleged difficulties are simply too pervasive right now."
A grand jury indicted Harmon on charges of distribution of child pornography and possession of child pornography. He also could be forced to forfeit a computer seized from his home on Jan. 7, 2010.
Harmon faces at least 15 years in prison because of his previous conviction for distribution of child pornography. He was arrested Monday and pleaded not guilty to both charges in U.S. District Court that afternoon.
Two accused marijuana smugglers will be represented by publicly paid, private attorneys because of a a conflict of interest with the federal defender's office.
William Richard Paterson, 50, and Jahrum David Oakes, 32, both of Kelowna B.C, appeared in U.S District Court in Spokane this morning for bail hearings that were rescheduled next Friday at the request of their attorneys.
Frank Cikutovich is representing Oakes; Mark Casey is representing Paterson. Each will be paid $110 an hour, according to federal court documents. No details on the defender's office conflict of interest was immediately available.
Paterson and Oakes were arrested Sunday night near the border in Ferry County after DEA agents say they were trying to smuggle in eight duffel bags filled with marijuana, weighing about 235 pounds. The men remain in Spokane County Jail.
Paterson, a thin man with a full beard and tattoos covering his left arm, requested his bail hearing be delayed to give him time to resolve "some family situations" back home, Casey said.
Oakes' bail hearing was continued to the same day after Cikutovich said he needed more time to address flight risks raised by pre-trial services.
Assistant U.S Attorney Matt Duggan said Oakes, a taller man with a shaved face and slicked back hair, has already failed to appear in court once on an unrelated charge, is unemployed, has a "possible history of substance abuse" and has an outstanding misdemeanor warrant in Okanogan County.
Cikutovich said they have a tentative agreement regarding the Okanogan warrant and have been in contact with Oakes girlfriend of 2 1/2 years.
Kelowna, B.C., lawyer Marty Johnson will work with Oakes back home if he's released, Cikutovich said.
Kelowna, a city of about 115,000, is a 255-mile drive from Spokane.
Next Friday's bail hearing is set for 10:30 a.m.
Read a previous story on the bust here.
Spokane International Airport police suspected something was going on with the Canadian man they'd seen several times. In the last four months, he'd rented several SUVs and returned them after racking up unusually high mileage – some 3,000 miles apiece.
Based on that tip, agents with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration began tracking Michael Barry Yuill, a 36-year-old resident of Salmon Arm, British Columbia, a small community about 300 miles north of Spokane.
Now, Yuill is facing federal drug trafficking charges in what authorities are describing as a major Eastern Washington cocaine seizure.
Read the rest of my story here.
On a Facebook page for his small business, Yuill is described as being known in Salmon Arm "the guy that dresses up as Shrek every Halloween," referring to the popular's children's movie. Check it out here.

It's common knowledge that we here at Grazia Daily have fallen hard for Beyonce since that Glastonbury performance. So you can imagine our delight when we spotted her shoe shopping at London's Selfridges yesterday *high-pitched squeals*. There she was - that smile, those curves, but most amazingly, that HAIR! Beyonce's wild mass of corkscrew curls seem to embody everything she stands for - strength, power, and untamed femininity. We LOVE!
And now her 'do has gotten us pining for a big ol' mane of our own. If, like us, you feel like channeling some curl power this summer, we recommend Bumble & Bumble Curl Conscious Defining Creme, £21.50 to enhance curls and Living Proof Full Root Lifting Spray, £20 for ultimate volume. And if you're feeling reallllly adventurous like us and want to Put a Ring On It, have a go with Babyliss 2285U Conical Wand Hair Styler, £23.95 - it's THE ultimate curly-wurly wand.

After talking about running to Joe Yalch, you'd probably be inspired to run 3 miles.
At South Brunswick High School, at least 28 students are willing to do so as members of the Cougars' cross-country team.
Twenty-eight—that's the size of some Class 1-A football teams.
Yalch, in his first year as head cross-country coach, is an inspiration himself. He decided he wanted to run a marathon, and did so two years ago—after he trained rigorously.
Ocean Isle Beach once again can claim to have two of the best surfers on the East Coast.
The East Coast Surfing Championships—the oldest-running surfing contest in the United States and the largest on the East Coast—took place Aug. 21-24 at Virginia Beach, Va. Jesse McCrery won the Masters Championship (for those 18-34) and Owen Moffett the Men's Championship.
Michael Powell, a former Men's Division champion, finished second in the Open Championship.
With the fall fishing season just about upon us, it is time to re-examine our local inshore fishing myths. I have addressed some of these before, but since they crop up every autumn, now is a good time to dust them off and either debunk or certify them. Once the fish start hitting, I'm in it for myself and I'm not telling you anything.
In the winter months when it's cold outside, many of us sit in front of our fireplaces and plan trips. I have a suggestion. Instead of thinking of Alaska or far west or a Caribbean Island, why not plan a trip to Quebec for next summer? Then, when the temperature and humidity soars on the Carolina coast, you'll be playing the links in slacks and a sweater.
My husband and I have been to Quebec three times—on our honeymoon, then for a family reunion and just a few weeks ago for a second romantic trip a deux.
The Ocean Ridge couples tournament played Sunday at Panther's Run was a modified Stableford format.
First at -92 was the team of Gordon and Kathy Wicke and Bob and Mary Kish. Second at -80 was the team of Bob Larkin II, Doris McLaughin and Pete and Becky Williams. Tying for third at -76 were the teams of Ed and Di Gruver and Roger and Linda Buck, and Lynn and Beverly Furman and Larry and Diane Wright. Tying for fifth at -75 were the teams of Allen and Judy Keegan and Brian and Toni Roe, and Chappy and Peggy Jones and Bob and Grace Bradicich.
Celebrating on the sidelines after South Brunswick's 25-15 victory over West Brunswick, coach Gordon Walters hugged senior Greg Gilbert, lifted him off the ground and shouted, "I love you."

BOILING SPRING LAKES—North Brunswick's Rashaad Nelson won the 3.1-mile conference cross-country race Sept. 9 at South Brunswick.
South Brunswick's boys won the team competition, finishing with 31 points. North finished with 39 points. Trask and Pender forfeited.
Nelson finished in 19 minutes, 27 seconds.
Pender's Hector Sanchez was second (19:41), North's Tony Wright third (20:24) and South Brunswick's Charlie Martin fourth (20:30).
LELAND—Volleyball is a game of many shifts in momentum, and South Brunswick handled that better than North Brunswick in a three-game conference victory Sept. 10. The Cougars beat the Scorpions 25-21, 25-19, 25-13.
The second game was the pivotal one, as North rallied from a 16-11 deficit to take a 17-16 lead. But the Cougars held North to two points the rest of game in the 25-19 victory and then cruised to victory in the third game after taking a 10-2 lead.
The South Brunswick girls tennis team remained unbeaten, defeating South Columbus 5-4 on Sept. 8 and Cape Fear Academy 8-1 on Sept. 9.
The Cougars are 6-0 overall, 2-0 in the conference.
In the conference match against South Columbus, the Cougars won five of the six singles matches. Lauren Scheetz at No. 5 and Sarah Brock at No. 6 clinched the victory by winning their matches in tiebreakers.
Hoggard scored two goals in the final four minutes of the first half and went on to beat West Brunswick 3-0 in a conference match Sept. 9 at West.
The loss was the first of the season for the Trojans (6-1). The Vikings improved to 3-0-1.
"This was a tough game against the Trojans," Hoggard coach John Teller said, "and they actually moved the ball better than we did."
Teller said his team was lucky to have been playing a poor schedule until it met West, and that has given time for his starters and his reserves to play as a unit.

3 hurt in explosion at Denver marijuana grow house
Authorities say three people are hurt after an explosion at a marijuana growing operation in Denver.
Investigators say the explosion happened Wednesday while the people were using butane to extract the intoxicating chemical THC from the marijuana plant. Denver Fire spokesman Mark Watson says the injured people were likely trying to make hash oil. The process is dangerous and has caused several similar explosions in Colorado and around the country.
Watson says it does not appear the marijuana growing operation was permitted, and the extraction process is illegal. Two men and a woman were taken to hospitals with second-degree burns.
Watson says the building, in an industrial area, wasn't damaged. Police haven't made any arrests.

New Opportunities:
Peabody Energy named Charles "Chuck" Burggraf group executive of Colorado operations, responsible for Twentymile...
News Digest
a federal appeals court struck down a 1995 Wyoming law that sought to improve local phone service in rural areas by protecting small rural carriers from competition for 10 years to allow them to build new infrastructure. RT Communications Inc. v. FCC, Nos. 98-9541 et al., Jan. 13, 2000 (10th Cir.).
Directory Publishing. A Utah court upheld a commission order that imputed revenues from a directory publishing affiliate to the local telephone carrier in setting local rates. It said that ratepayers had a stake in publishing operations. US West Communications Inc. v. Utah PSC, No. 980082, Jan. 7, 2000 (Utah).
Gas Valve Safety. A California appeals court reversed a trial order and refused to dismiss a complaint by a natural gas customer who alleged that Pacific Gas & Electric Co. committed fraud by first charging ratepayers $18 million a year under a seven-year program to replace 2 million faulty gas valves, and then cutting back on the program by secretly deciding to replace valves only when a repairman was sent to the customer premises on another call.
The court agreed with PG&E that the PUC had primary jurisdiction, but said that a fine or other sanction was not barred by the filed-rate doctrine or the rule against retroactive rate making.
It stayed the fraud suit to wait for the PUC to handle a separate complaint filed by different plaintiffs seeking a fine against PG&E for an apartment explosion and fire allegedly caused by faulty gas valves. Wise v. PG&E, A083784, Dec. 29, 1999 (Calif. App., 1st Dist., Div. 5).
Propane Gas Service. A Wisconsin court upheld a contract between the owner of a mobile home park and a propane gas distributor that had required all park tenants that used propane or natural gas to purchase their gas only from the distributor. It found no conflict with utility franchises or public policy. Northern States Power Co. v. National Gas Co. Inc. No. 99-1486, Dec. 30, 1999 (Wisc.App.).
Gas Pipelines
New Distribution Systems. Sempra Energy, parent company of Southern California Gas Co. and San Diego Gas & Electric, has won a contract from the government of Nova Scotia to build and operate the largest new North American natural gas distribution system built in the past 30 years (and the first natural gas system on the island). A 20-year rate plan (with a 25-year franchise right) OK'd for the subsidiary, Sempra Atlantic Gas, assumes a return on equity significantly higher than normally allowed by U.S. regulators.
Sempra Atlantic Gas says it will spend $700 million over the next seven years to build the system, making natural gas available to 78 percent of the 350,000 households in the province.
Independence Projects. The FERC, by a 3-2 vote on an interim order, found no adequate showing of market need for the controversial Independence and ANR SupplyLink gas pipeline projects, putting construction on hold.
But while the unusual order does not grant certificates, it states that if the companies demonstrate they have contracts for 35 percent of total capacity with non-affiliates, the FERC may approve the projects, along

According to the artifacts on display for Dwight D. Eisenhower at the World Golf Hall of Fame, Eisenhower visited Augusta National 29 times and played 210 rounds of golf there during his two terms as president (1953-61). Eisenhower is being inducted posthumously tonight with Lanny Wadkins, Jose Maria Olazabal and Christy O'Connor in the Hall of Fame Class of 2009.
The Augusta National green jacket Eisenhower owned as a member of the club is among artifacts on display at the Hall of Fame. So is the Spalding Dot golf ball he used to make the only hole-in-one of his life. He holed a 7-iron from 104 yards at Seven Lakes Country Club in Palm Springs, Calif., in 1968.

That's because with Chamberlin on a football field, the hits just keep on coming, no matter what the drill or whom the adversary.
That much was evident last weekend in the joint practices against the Miami Dolphins, when Chamberlin more times than not decked his man in coverage during the so-called "limited contact" seven-on-seven drills. It was apparent again Wednesday when Chamberlin and fullback Greg Comella got into a minute-long tussle and took at least four Titans to break up.
But his Titans teammates have grown used to that from Chamberlin, who after the squabble had finished went over and knelt down beside Comella, put his arm around him and struck up a conversation.
"Everything you've heard is true," Titans guard Benji Olson said of Chamberlin. "He has got a hard head, and he does bring it and hit you. I don't look forward to coming into contact with him too often, because you can wind up with a headache for the rest of the day."
Added tight end Frank Wycheck, whose route is run Chamberlin's way plenty of times in practice, "He's just an old fashioned, hard-nosed, tough kind of football player. He's kind of a throwback to the era of Dick Butkus, Ray Nitschke and those guys. He's just a tough guy, a guy that's going to outwork you and just hustle to the ball and give maximum effort."
Olson said he even tried to work out a deal to get Chamberlin to take it easy on him before camp started.
"Sometimes I try and work deals out with him where he won't come and kill me if it's a padded practice, but he isn't much for taking deals," Olson said. "I just have to take the punishment sometimes."
Chamberlin said it would take quite a bit for him to ease off the throttle, even in practice. "He tried to before camp, but I said that's big money for me not to practice hard against him," Chamberlin said.
"Frank has just one speed and that is full. I don't think Frank looks forward very much to walk-throughs and things like that," Titans coach Jeff Fisher said.
Chamberlin's reputation as a Titans tough guy has been cemented even in practices. And anyone is fair game, from the biggest offensive lineman to even backup quarterback Chris Sanders, whom Chamberlin leveled on a special teams drill in camp a year ago.
"I'm just trying to get better out there. It's nothing personal. That's just football I guess," Chamberlin said. "I like to practice hard. It makes me feel better and feel like I can go out there and do my job on Sunday."
It's an admirable characteristic, says fellow linebacker Keith Bulluck.
"He's a guy that goes 150 percent every single time he steps on the field," Bulluck said. "That's a characteristic I wish I had. I'm sure it's just something that came with him that he's used to doing. He probably doesn't even realize it. That's just his speed. His speed is go hard or go home, even during walk-throughs."
His play on the practice field has also earned him several nicknames, according Bulluck, who slyly grinned when it was suggested that he might have bestowed some of those monikers on Chamberlin.
"Frank has a plethora of nicknames – 'Braveheart,' 'Frankie Mumbles,' and some other really funny ones," Bulluck said.
And surprisingly enough, those nicknames fit Chamberlin, who contrasts his aggressive play on the field with a fairly low-key demeanor off it. "I guess 'Frankie Mumbles' came about because as a rookie I mumbled a lot in the meetings," Chamberlin admitted. "I'm not exactly a vocal guy off the field. On the field, I am. 'Braveheart' goes along with the fact that I practice hard." Whatever the nickname, Chamberlin knows only one way to play the game.
"If you get in a habit of doing it every day, it's going to be easier for you on Sunday because you don't have to think about it," he said. "If you try to turn it on on Sunday, sometimes that's too late. That's why I do that."
It is something that certainly turns the heads of his teammates and the coaches. Chamberlin, a middle linebacker by trade, is trying to forge his way into the lineup as much as possible. He is currently working at outside linebacker in the absence of Peter Sirmon, who is battling a viral infection.
"We have a couple of packages that we call 'extra backer,' where we play with four linebackers and take one of the corners out and/or one of the safeties out at various times," linebackers coach Gunther Cunningham said. "That's his opportunity to get on the field. I wouldn't be afraid to play him in any situation whether it be third down, first down, goal line, I don't care. I know Frank Chamberlin is a winning football player, and I'd play him at any time."
Cunningham wouldn't even rule out Chamberlin pushing for a starting role this training camp.
"You bet he can," Cunningham said. "I think we've got four good veteran linebackers. Like I told Peter and Frank last year all year long, always think as starters while you're going through this progression. They made a lot of progression on the field and off, and there's no question that Frank Chamberlin could start for us and any team in the NFL probably."
Despite not yet cracking the starting lineup, Chamberlin remains upbeat about his situation and his role, which, of course, includes lots of special teams work as well.
"I definitely want to be out there and work to be out there, but I try not to let that stuff get to me too much," he said. "I just go out there and do what I have to do every day and if I do everything I can, it doesn't frustrate me. If I wasn't doing everything I can, then it would frustrate me.
"Gun has said, 'Don't let it get to you. Go out and do your job every day and things will work out.'"
In the meantime, Chamberlin can also take consolation in knowing that the offense deep down really appreciates the approach he brings to the game on the practice field.
"He makes everyone better when he's out there. He's always going a hundred miles per hour and giving a great picture out there, because that's the kind of speed you're going to get on Sundays," Wycheck said. "He gives that each and every day. Sometimes, when they're not feeling their best and they see Frank still going, it gets kind of frustrating at times, but I'm glad to have him on our team."
Injury update
The Titans backed Jevon Kearse down because of soreness in his ankle, but he and Henry Ford, who was out for a second day also with an ankle injury, are both still expected to play Saturday against St. Louis.
Sirmon is still suffering from flu-like symptoms and a fever and will spend one more night in the hospital, according to Fisher. His status for Saturday is up in the air. If he can't go, Chamberlin and rookies Rocky Calmus and Rocky Boiman will both play. Calmus has a cast on his hand to protect a thumb injury, but has not missed any practice time.
Justin McCareins had tightness in his hamstring and was held out of practice Wednesday. He is still expected to go on Saturday.
Dainon Sidney and Bobby Myers will likely practice just once a day for the duration of camp, as both are coming off knee injuries.
Backup quarterback Neil O'Donnell sat out Wednesday's practices with a sore shoulder.

Okay, am I doing something wrong? I don't get reddness, or peeling or flaking.... Well, for one day I did. I increased my moisturizer a little and now I am fine. I have only been using for 2 weeks. Does this mean I am not doing something right? I use a little more than a pea size, maybe a plump pea.. :). I can tell that my skin is clearing up but I dont know if that is a result of the retin-a or the antibiotics that I started two weeks ago as well. IN FACT.. I think I get a little more oily than I had prior to the retin-a. In the passed I hardly noticed the oil, now I get a little shiny. Hummmmmm
UPDATE: I have been using for several weeks now and the last two weeks have been so TERRIBLE! I look like a fish with all the scales. particularly around my mouth and my chin. The sides of my lips have cracked and I have developed very chapped lips. I did use this on my mouth but only twice weeks ago, the dryness isn't subsiding though. I have noticed a difference in my skin. But the really tough cystic acne isn't really going away and I have had a few new ones within the last couple of weeks. I can't find any mosturizer that will help. My makeup looks patchy, dry... its really embarrassing. I'm not going to wimp out though.... I'll update again later.
Made my skin burn, flake, and become very painful. I continued to use it hoping my skin would clear up and those little bumps under the skin would come to the surface... nope never happened and I was left with extremely irritated painful skin.
I used to use Retin-A Gel, but have since moved onto Stieva-A Cream (0.05% Concentration of Tretinoin) due to the irritation caused by the alcohol vehicle of Retin-A.
Stieva-A, and like all tretinoin products cause excessive dryness. The last time that I properly used it (approx. 2 weeks in duration) produced fantastic results where the acne scars were half the darkness than they previously were. The complexion was smooth, supple and hydrated.
The only downside, of course, is the EXTREME dryness that you may encounter during treatment. I experienced dryness to the extent were I'd wake up finding difficulty trying to open my mouth because of the dryness. Further, I found that even the thickest moisturisers that I had (namely Creme de la Mer [fabulous at calming skin] and Eucerin Cream [sadly, unavailable in Australia]) did not compensate for the moisture lossed due to the dryness.
I just wrote my very first review ( after over 3 years) on Obagi Clear. I love that, but it I believe it is because of Retin A gel ( .1%) from ADC that I am getting such great results. I tried Taz gel- "purging " started, and never stopped. I switched to Retin A gel- and my skin loves it ! It took a little while, but now I am on it for 5 months, and my skin keeps getting better and better. My cystic acne on neck, chin, cheeks have stopped. My marks have almost completely disappeared ( a miracle for my skin that takes forever for marks to fade). I am a little flakey- but Aquaphor seems to help. LOVE Retin-A Gel !! I guess I have the fear if I started loving my routine, and writing rave reviews, my skin will wake up one morning and say "PHYSCH" and explode. *crosses fingers *

I am using the 025% gel form of Retin-A, my experience with this is a bit frustrating in the beginning because it caused me to have bad purging. I stayed on it since I figured oh well what could be worst than already having bad skin. After 4 months of every other third night usage my skin can now tolerate every night use although I do buffer it with Cetaphil Lotion otherwise it is still irritating to use alone.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
best thing ever that I tried. It did take a long time for results to be seen. usually around several months. and i experienced the initial breakouts too.. my skin was dry, irritated, red but i kept using the treatment. my advice is if these conditions get too serious, see ur dermatologist and tell him/her to prescribe a lower dose of the product or use it less often like every other night. but to really know if it works for u is to stick it out for the whole recommended time.
but i found that after using it for a year, my skin started to break out again, i'm not sure if it was my skin getting used to it or something.
my health plan pays for it. so it's completely free =)

I used Retin-A cream 0.1% for 2 months and unfortunately all it did was cause excessive irritation and clog my pores.
If you have sensitive skin I'd say go for a good OTC retinoid or Differin. If you're prone to clogged pores make sure you go for the gel version.
Retin A is great. I have been using it for over 10 yrs. A little goes a long way!
I am 33 but people think I look like I am in my late 20's!
I wish it was avalible OTC!
its a great product but some people get redness and peel.
Also need to wear sunscreen if you are using it!
I've used Retin A for years for everything/sun damage, pores, wrinkles, and yes, acne. I still get the deep hormonal cysts occasionally but am trying antibiotics for those. I've used this for so long I can't imagine not using it. I did quit for awhile, and I did notice my wrinkles looking deeper/especially the smile lines between your nose and mouth. It's not an overnight improvement, but it does work which is more than I can say about most OTC products!

I recently decided to do something about the hyper pigmentation on my face. After much research I decided Retin-A was the way to go. (Thank you MUA!) The first three weeks were brutal and I thought my face was going to fall off completely but then it happened: the glow. It was back. Numerous people have actually complimented me on my brighter complexion. There has been lightening of the brown spots as well as a very noticeable improvement in the texture of my skin. In Ireland I pay about 30 for a tube of Retin-A that I used to pay twice as much for in the States. Considering Oil of Olay Total Effects is just about a tenner lower in price, this is a much better and effective treatment. Highly, highly recommended.
UPDATE: I forgot to renew my prescription and quit using this for about 2 months. During this 2 months my skin's hyperpigmentation increased and I started to get spots from the stress I was under during this time. I went back to my GP and got another prescription. It was awful to go through those first three weeks but it is nice to be back on track again with glowing skin that again has clarity to it! Will not allow my prescription to lapse again.
