Great location. Nice view of the bay. 20 minutes to Sydney CBD by bus. Very well connected with many buses. Apartment is very, very small. Tiny bathroom. Warm in September. The flat is quite noisy, as it is located just by the road. Good area with bars and restaurants for breakfast and dinner. NO internet!!!!! Very bad service to collect keys. We arrived late in the night and we had to go to another hotel to collect the keys. Then take a taxi to get to the apartment. A bit dirty upon arrival. We had to clean the apartment ourselves. No service to leave luggage on the day of departure!!!! For the price, next time, we will go for a HOTEL.
Our stay in this apartment went well. The directions we had been given for collection of the key was straight forward. With the bus stop at the bottom of the stairs it was "all go" to get around Sydney. We arrived in the dark and we were blown away at the city vista from seven floors up.
Thank you.
Fabulous apartment, very spacious and clean, with a gorgeous view of the bridge and cityscape, lovely little touches by the host made us feel at home, very secure building and parking made all the difference I will definitely be booking this apartment again in the future
Appartment is very good located and has space enough for 4 to 5 people (one bedroom for adults, the other bedroom rather for 2-3 kids). Great is tennis-court and pool on the rooftop with amazing few.
The price was rather high and for this, in our opinion all details shoud be perfect (like dishwashing machine must work correctly, all lights should work, no broken chairs).
Very nice spacious apartment with a fantastic view of Sydney. Great location. We really enjoyed our stay.
We stayed at the apartment in April 2015 (2 adults and 2 children) and found it to be excellent. Great location (handy to transport and also easy to walk into town and around), great facilities, spacious, very comfortable and very clean and tidy. The one negative was dealing with Peter and his office staff. When asking for clarification or assistance, they were very defensive and their general communication was not great. Once they sort that out, I would have no hesitation in recommending the apartment as a great place to stay.
Apartment very well located, the whole town can be done on foot
The downside is that this is the same street is very busy and noisy at night.
The pool and rooftop jacuzzi its a real plus
Everything conforms to the description on the website (missing a few dishes when we are still 5)
I highly recommend
Appartement très bien situé, toute la ville peut se faire à pied
L'inconvénient c'est que de ce fait la rue est très passagère et bruyante même la nuit.
La piscine et le jacuzzi sur le toit son un réel plus
Tout est conforme à la description faite sur le site (manque un peu de vaisselle quand même lorsqu'on est 5)
Je recommande vivement
Thank you for the great apartment. It has a great location to public transportation. Everything you need is available (great kitchen, washer, dryer, balcony, ...). The rooftop pool is awesome. Here you have a beautiful view. On the way to the station you pass a supermarket. Everything was clean and tidy on arrival. Would highly recommend it and would like to stay here again at any time. Again a big thank you to Peter, keep it up.
Vielen Dank für das tolle Apartment. Es hat eine super Lage zu den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln. Alles was man benötigt ist vorhanden (tolle Küche, Waschmaschine, Trockner, Balkon, …). Der Pool auf dem Dach ist genial. Hier hat man eine schöne Aussicht. Auf dem Weg zur Bahn kommt man an einem Supermarkt vorbei. Alles war bei der Ankunft sauber und gepflegt. Kann es nur wärmstens empfehlen und würde hier jederzeit wieder übernachten wollen. Nochmal ein großer Danke an Peter, weiter so.
The apartment was great, the views of the Sydney skyline from the balcony simply stunning! Key collection (pick up at the reception of a hotel) worked without problems.
The apartment itself is decorated very spacious and comfortable, modern and chic 4 adults, only the baths date back to an earlier era ... would be renovated. Very good beds, air conditioning works great. We would come back!
Das Apartment war toll, der Blick auf die Skyline von Sydney vom Balkon einfach atemberaubend! Die Schlüsselübergabe (Abholung am Empfang eines Hotels) funktionierte unproblematisch.
Das Apartment selbst ist für 4 Erwachsene sehr geräumig und komfortabel, modern und chic eingerichtet, nur die Bäder stammen noch aus einer älteren Ära... müssten mal renoviert werden. Sehr gute Betten, Klimaanlage funktioniert hervorragend. Wir würden wiederkommen!

YOUNGSTOWN - Youngstown's own former middleweight champion, Kelly Pavlik, told ESPN.com on Saturday that he was retiring from boxing.
Pavlik said he was concerened about the long-term effects of continuing to fight and no longer had the motivation to continue.
"When you stay in the sport too long you have health problems. That's a big, big thing for me," Pavlik said. "I'm not talking about now. I'm talking about in the future. I'm talking about when I'm 55 or 60. What's gonna happen to me then? Why take any more chances, especially in that sport. It's a brutal sport and you never know what can happen.

Youngstown boxer Kelly Pavlik
"I won the world title, I defended my title, I was champ for three years and I made good money. Why take the chance of medical problems? That's a big part of it. I also don't think the drive is there anymore. I'm moving on to a new chapter in my life."
Pavlik had what would have been arguably the biggest fight of his career scheduled for Jan. 26 in Los Angeles against undefeated super middleweight champion Andre Ward. That bout, however, was postponed to March 2 and eventually canceled altogether when Ward suffered a shoulder injury during training that forced him to have surgery.
"I've been a pro for 13 years and doing this since I was 9," he said. "I go away for two or three months at a time (to train) and I'm tired of leaving my family. It comes to a point where you just don't want to do that anymore. I put my money away and then with the Ward fight being canceled, well, health and time with my family is more important at this stage, especially with no guaranteed big fight or date."
Pavlik's longtime manager, Cameron Dunkin, told ESPN.com that he was pleased to see his charge step away with his health and finances secure.
"All the stuff he accomplished, when people said he couldn't, when they were down on him earlier in his career and said he would never do anything, I believed in him and knew what he could do. I am so proud of what he accomplished," Dunkin said.
Pavlik (40-2, 34 KOs), who turns 31 in April, held the middleweight championship from 2007 - when he got off the canvas from a devastating knockdown to eventually stop Jermain Taylor in dramatic fashion in the seventh round in Atlantic City - until 2010, when he lost a decision to Sergio Martinez.
Pavlik, known as "The Ghost," defended his middleweight crown three times with knockouts of Gary Lockett, Marco Antonio Rubio and Miguel Espino. He also outpointed Taylor in a nontitle rematch at 164 pounds. Pavlik also lost a lopsided decision during his title reign to Bernard Hopkins in a nontitle fight at 170 pounds.
But Pavlik had become a star, made millions and gave the blue collar people of his hometown something to cheer for. He was invited to give a pregame speech to the Ohio State football team, did the charity and banquet circuit and was even called on by then-New York Senator Hillary Clinton to speak at a 2008 campaign rally during her presidential primary race against then-Illinois Senator Barack Obama.
But Pavlik also had his share of problems, which led to two long layoffs, one of 11 months and the other 10 months, between 2010 and 2012. Pavlik battled alcohol problems and wound up in rehab twice, was arrested on a DUI charge and had a public breakup with trainer Jack Loew, who had trained him since he was a kid, before hiring Robert Garcia.
Pavlik got back on track in 2012, fighting three times between March and July and winning in dominant fashion, although against lesser competition with knockouts of Aaron Jaco and Scott Sigmon followed by a decision win against Will Rosinsky in July.
"I had a pretty good career," Pavlik said. "I was 40-2 and I only lost to two of the best guys, Martinez and Hopkins. I'm content. It's not like I got knocked out.
"I'm fine physically. But I feel like why keep pushing the envelope? I made it this long and this far and I have had fights that were tough fights. I got dropped by Jermain Taylor, got dropped earlier in my career. But you constantly take punches and it all adds up. When you're done, you might have brain problems, you might be punchy, you might develop Parkinson's. Why push it? I don't need it and my heart's not in it anymore. So why take the chances? I've been very fortunate up to this point."
Pavlik said he plans to open a gym - not just for boxing - in the Youngstown area. He also said he has been busy with a shopping plaza that he and a partner own.
"That's been going very well," he said. "We have 13 units and all of them are filled. When Andre Ward pulled out of our fight, maybe it was for the best. This is a new chapter for me. I know people will say this is because I have problems with (drinking), but that's not true. I'm fine. I have stopped caring about what they will say.
"I know this - if it had been me who pulled out of the Ward fight, I would have been reamed. At this stage, I am just tired of the negativity and comments and a whole bunch of things. But I know people will think I'm drinking and it will be the first thing people go after."
Pavlik said retirement has been on his mind for awhile. He said he thought about it as far back as before defending the middleweight title against Espino in 2009 and then more seriously last year.
"I was contemplating it even before the last fight (in July)," Pavlik said. "Then they came up with the Andre Ward fight and I guess I got the motivation back. But I had been thinking about retiring and when the Ward fight fell out, that was icing on the cake for me."
Pavlik, married with two children, daughter Sydney, 6, and son Kelly Jr., who turns 4 in February, said his wife, Samantha hoped he would retire.
"For two or three years, she was telling me she wants me to be done. She said when I got to the age of 30, she wanted me to retire, so she backed it," Pavlik said. "Her biggest fear was long-term (physical) affects of boxing. My parents are behind it. They always said if I am not going into the ring 100 percent mentally ready, they didn't want me doing it, so they've been supportive of it."
But would Pavlik come back like so many fighters have? Just last week, 41-year-old Shane Mosley ended a retirement that lasted less than a year.
"As of right now, being a fighter and doing this since I was 9 and being at the level I've been at, I'm done," Pavlik said. "Is out of the question would I come back? I can't say that but then you can't rule it out. But as of now, it's legit."

Don't Waste Your Tokens On That Crane Machine 'Cause Nobody Ever Wins Those Things
21 comments:
I had an uncle who was ridiculously good at those things. Congrats to the little one who now has a cookie monster to love. :)ReplyDelete
Way to go! Next to Grover, Cookie Monster was always my favorite. :)ReplyDelete
My husband has jedi like skills when it comes to crane machines.ReplyDelete
Me not so much.
<3 sarasophia
Very cool! I used to be really good at those machines when I was kid too!ReplyDelete
That is frightening!ReplyDelete
But can he repeat the trick? Anyone can get lucky once.ReplyDelete
(I say this to placate my wounded ego in the face of all my own lost quarters.)
too cool!! Adam and Windy are good at those things too, but Nana taught them how!!ReplyDelete
Awh, to add to the playroom....Great Job Noah!ReplyDelete
Ugh!! I spent YEARS trying to convince my kids what a waste of money those things were, and all it took was one kid to win ONE TIME for all that hard work to go down the drain! :)ReplyDelete
LOL foot in mouth!ReplyDelete
I say the exact same thing! Maybe we just have to believe in the positive sometimes. Too funny.ReplyDelete
My husband has won at least three things for our kids with the same machine! They get bummed now and don't understand when he doesn't get one then! :)ReplyDelete
I say the same thing, but it's usually because I don't want one more doll/trinket/dust collector to come home with me. My husband is always the sucker though and has to go "try".ReplyDelete
which one has the special touch? nice!ReplyDelete
I've lost much money in those machines.ReplyDelete
Hahaha! Luke has MAD crane machine skills. Some people just have a talent for it!ReplyDelete
That is wonderful! Hurray for the Cookie Monster that wanted to come home with you!ReplyDelete
Those crane machines are programmed like slot machines. They may look random but it's done by some algorithm that basically says "X many loose grabs and then on the 52nd try become firm and grab for real."ReplyDelete
It won't always be the same amount of tries which is why it looks random or like it takes skill.
It's people like him that make my daughter say, "SEE!!!"ReplyDelete

Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes Could Tour with TLC as a Hologram
"The hologram is something we talked about and thought about years ago. Obviously timing is everything, but we're definitely talking about it," Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas tells the U.K.'s Metro newspaper.
The idea to resurrect Lopes, who was 30 when she died, for stage shows was rumored last spring, after a hologram of Tupac Shakur wowed audiences at Coachella. But this is the first time the band members admit they are considering it.
"It will be hard on us, but I certainly think our fans would love to see it," says Thomas, 41. "I think we would probably pass out, and all of our fans would break down, but it's amazing how real the hologram looks. It's almost like you can touch the person."
As for the new album, Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins says it will be classic TLC, with some fine tuning. "We're going to still sound like TLC, evolving to whatever level we need to be at this time," she tells the BBC.
"We have to get into the studio and start feeling how we feel," adds Watkins, 42. "You have to find yourself first, and then you find the path, and then you have an album before you know it."
There is no time line yet for the new album or tour. Thomas and Watkins are also working on a TLC biopic for VH1.

And You Call Yourself a Film Buff?! – The Big Lebowski
BY Fletcher Gelber
I have always considered myself as a Dude; I go bowling, eat Cheetos, and have seen every episode of [i]Breaking Bad[/i]-twice. But that title was seriously questioned in the office when it was discovered that I have not seen the holy grail of dude movies, the Dude Bible, The Death Star of Dudeness: The Big Lebowski. With my Dude identity on the line, I finally sat down to watch the film; and my life will never be the same.

Dear Larry Tobin,
Can you show me President Obama saying, "small businesses are doing fine and the only reason is because the government has done something for them"? (Again, without the cut and paste of sentences taken out of context).
Take out the word ONLY and I bet you could find half a dozen business owners in Tomahawk, and many more in the whole Northwoods for that matter, who would agree they have been helped directly and indirectly by government. Whether it be contracts, grants, small business loans, etc....many, many businesses in our area and through out the US have received help from our government.
Even the stars of Romney's own commercials got some help from their friends - the government.
A distortion of the truth quickly results in a lie and I would think you would have more respect for the truth, after all there is enough fault on both sides of the aisle to be able to argue without the need to distort facts. Government surely is not the answer and we sure can cut spending but we all need to work together!

I enjoyed my stay in santa teresa. delfina is very helpful und friendly, the bus starts in front of the door and the view from the terrace is very nice. (corcovado)
This is a great Guestroom and Delfina is a very friendly and helpful host.
The room is cozy and comfortable. Breakfast was served on the terrace at the time we wished. It was very delicious and was different every day. Fresh fruits, eggs, bread, cheese, ham, yoghurt, coffee, fresh juice...Perfect!
Santa Teresa is a nice neighborhood with a beautiful view over the city.
All in all I would recommend this Guesthouse to everyone!
Tessa and I had a very nice stay at Delfina's place. Nice breakfast every morning and Delfina was always very helpful to provide transportation information. The neighbourhood Santa Teresa is a nice place to be. Two downsides: the rooms are a bit noisy and the bathroom is shared with guests in the other two guest rooms. However, overall we had a great time in Rio and at Delfina's place!
This is a cozy and comfortable apartment, located in the beautiful area of Santa Teresa with beautiful views of city and Christ. Breakfast on the terrace was always yummy and nutritious. I would recommend this room to all!
Staying at Delfina's was the best choice we made during the whole trip. The atmosphere in Santa Teresa and most of all at Delfina's house is open, caring and you feel at home. We definatly recommend this place. This place makes you see another ankle of lovely rio. Muito obrigada Delfina! Selma e Charlotte:) dinamarca
I stayed for 10 nights at Delfinas house which is located in the lovely district of Santa Teresa. It feels very relaxed and secure and you can easily reach it either by bus or minivan right from metro station Gloria. The room is decorated with pictures and there is a ventilator as well, the bed is very comfortable. Further you will find a free wireless lan access and a washing machine. Not to forget there is a breakfast served on the veranda and with just a little luck you might watch the little monkeys climbing up the trees ;-) All in all i very much recommend to stay there for a couple of days
We spent 4 days at Delfina well, it was a pleasure to be with her. The room is lovely and our host just as friendly. The breakfast was very good too. I highly recommend staying at Delfina in the small neighborhood of Santa Teresa;
Nous avons passé 4 jours très bien chez Delfina, c'était un plaisir d'être chez elle. La chambre est charmante et notre hôte tout aussi sympathique. Le petit déjeuner était très bon également. Je vous recommande vivement de séjourner chez Delfina dans le petit quartier de Santa Teresa;
Delfina was a great host - very welcoming and always happy to help (she even paid for our bus tickets on her card when ours wouldn't work & allowed us to back her back in cash the next day). The room was lovely with lots of colourful artwork (Delfina's own) on the walls. The breakfast in the morning was delicious (bread, cheese, meat, fruit yogurt, coffee, eggs and fresh juice) and was served on her lovely terrace with a view of 'Christ the Redeemer'. It was was easy to get to Centro with a bus stop right outside the doorstep. Lapa is also in walking distance but this is not recommended at night (nor is walking around Santa Teresa as it can be dangerous - during the day however this is a gorgeous place to explore with stunning views of the city). Would certainly recommend this as a great place to stay while in Rio.
I really enjoyed staying in Santa Teresa, is very close to the center of RJ, Arches of Lapa. I even had to go on foot walking to the public library, theater, etc ... it's a nice walk. For those who do not want to walk, have a minibus in front of the house which goes to the center. For the beach is just down some stairs that will bus to all of them, you arrive at 30 min. I loved the breakfast, really delicious, especially when served on the veranda with sun. The room is very nice, bright, perfect for those who want to relax after a day of sightseeing. I also had the opportunity to go to the movies in Santa Teresa, a place that looks like it came out of the time tunnel, very cute. Our hostess bothered to give us information on how to get places and some safety tips. Overall, the experience was great! Recommended =)
Gostei muito de ficar em Santa Teresa, é bem perto do centro do RJ, dos arcos da Lapa. Deu até pra ir a pé andando pra a biblioteca municipal, teatro, etc...é uma caminhada agradável.
Para quem não quer caminhar, tem um micro ônibus na frente da casa que vai pra o centro. Para a praia é só descer algumas escadas que terá ônibus para todas elas, em 30 min você chega.
Adorei o café da manhã, realmente delicioso, ainda mais quando servido na varanda com sol.
O quarto é bem agradável, iluminado, perfeito para quem quer descansar depois de um dia de passeio.
Também tive a oportunidade de ir no cinema de Santa Teresa, um lugar que parece que saiu do túnel do tempo, muito bonitinho.
A nossa anfitriã se preocupou em nos dar informações de como chegar nos lugares e algumas dicas de segurança.
No geral, a experiência foi ótima! Recomendado =)
La localisation de la chambre - à Santa teresa - est bien. toutefois la surprise fut que cette dame, sympathique au demeurant, loue ..3 chambres tres proches les unes des autres avec ..1 seule salle de bains ! et une douche des plus etroites !! (il ne faut pas etre trop large !!!) donc 6 personnes + la proprio qui prennent des douches dans la même piece ;;un peu "just" !! donc c'est bien si Delfina refait sa salle de bains ..Wimdu ne controle pas ?? autre chose : le petit dejeuner est vraiment des plus elementaires ;; jus de fruit en boite et ..petit suisse ;; connaissant bien les petits dejeuners au Bresil ..c est decevant !! meme pas de pain frais ;; dommage ;;

North American Edition2016-09-27 10:53 UTC
Markets decided that Clinton had the edge in the first presidential debate of the campaign, which prompted rallies in the Mexican peso and Canadian dollar given Trump's anti-NAFTA stance and generally protectionist views on trade. The peso was off its highs but was showing just over a 1.5% advance on the dollar as of the early European PM session. The Canadian buck was showing a fractional gain, having given back intraday gains. The greenback, ... Read More ►
European Edition2016-09-27 06:50 UTC
The Mexican peso and the Canadian dollar rallied on what appears to be a generally perceived victory, at least from the perspective of financial markets, for Clinton in the first presidential debate of the campaign. Trump's protectionist views on trade (he said during the debate that NAFTA was the worse trade deal that the U.S. had ever signed) doesn't sit too well with markets. The peso rallied by over 1.5%, driving USD-MXN to an eight-day lows below ... Read More ►

A quiet day in FX Land on Tuesday saw the dollar firm up versus most major currencies in morning dealings, before turning largely sideways. Better U.S. consumer confidence helped dollar sentiment, as did risk-on conditions on Wall Street, apparently the result of perceptions that Clinton won the debate, which translates into status quo for markets. EUR-USD fell from opening highs around 1.1250, to base at 1.1192. USD-JPY started near 100.20, and rallied ... Read More ►

The Democratic businessman who ran against and lost to Republican U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan in 2012 is interested in trying again.
Rob Zerban announced Wednesday he is forming an exploratory committee to look at running against Ryan in 2014 in southeastern Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District.
Should he become the Democratic nominee again, Zerban said, it will be a different campaign against Ryan the next time around.
"It was the first time he's been re-elected with less than 55 percent of the vote," Zerban said of the November election. "So despite not winning, I'm very happy with the results we had last cycle."
In 2012 Ryan ran both for Congress and vice president as Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's running mate.
Zerban told WISN 12 News the budgets Ryan has put out as House Budget Committee chairman will be significant factor in the next campaign.
"The national spotlight of the presidential race has highlighted some aspects of his budget and positions people weren't exactly familiar with in the 1st Congressional District," Zerban said.
Republican Party of Wisconsin Executive Director Joe Fadness called Zerban a failed candidate who intended to "launch another desperate negative campaign against popular 8-time elected" Ryan.
"Zerban's 2012 campaign was light on substance and heavy on misleading falsehoods. If elected, he would be nothing more than a rubber stamp (for) the destructive policies of President Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi's that have left this nation with record debt, high unemployment and ruinous spending," Fadness said in a statement.

Enroll Now!
A new session of each course opens each month, allowing you to enroll whenever your busy schedule permits!
How does it work? Once a session starts, two lessons will be released each week, for the six-week duration of your course. You will have access to all previously released lessons until the course ends.
Keep in mind that the interactive discussion area for each lesson automatically closes 2 weeks after each lesson is released, so you're encouraged to complete each lesson within two weeks of its release.
The Final Exam will be released on the same day as the last lesson. Once the Final Exam has been released, you will have 2 weeks plus 10 days to complete the Final and finish any remaining lessons in your course. No further extensions can be provided beyond these 10 days.
In our first lesson, you'll learn about the four major types of tissues—epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous tissue. We'll go over their major characteristics, how they're named, their functions, and where they're located. You'll discover some hints on identifying some specific tissues with a microscope, and I'll explain why every organ in your body contains all four major types of tissues.
In this lesson, we'll explore the topic of sensation as you learn about the sensations of touch, pressure, temperature, and pain. You'll discover the differences between free nerve endings, Merkel disks, Meissner corpuscles, root hair plexuses, and Pacinian corpuscles. We'll also talk about sensory adaptation and referred pain, and you'll learn where in the brain messages from sensory receptors end up. We'll end the lesson with a discussion of three disorders of cutaneous sensation—tactile defensiveness, congenital insensitivity to pain, and peripheral neuropathy.
Today, you'll learn about sensory receptors (muscle spindles, Golgi tendon organs, and joint proprioceptors) that tell your brain how much tension is in your muscles and the position of your body parts. You'll learn why accurate information from these receptors is so important and how the brain uses their information to help you plan your movements. We'll also discuss the sense of equilibrium—that sense that lets you know if you're upright and if you're in danger of falling. You'll study the structures of the vestibular system and learn how they contribute to both static and dynamic equilibrium. I'll summarize this lesson by telling you what happens when a person experiences proprioceptive or vestibular dysfunction.
Now it's time to learn about the physics of light and color and find out how light is bent and focused. Today, you'll learn about the composition of the eyes, including their three coverings and the structures inside the eyeballs. We'll talk about special sensory receptors called rod and cones, and how information they receive is sent to the brain and analyzed. We'll end this lesson with a discussion about three common eye disorders—glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration.
In this lesson, you'll discover the physics of sound. You'll learn why sounds differ in pitch and loudness, and you'll find out about a quality of sound called color. We'll then talk about the different structures that make up the outer ear, middle ear, and inner ear. You'll learn what happens when sound waves enter the ear and how information from the ear travels to the brain for analysis. We'll end this lesson with a discussion of hearing loss.
Today, we'll finish up our study of the senses with a discussion on the senses of smell and taste. You'll learn about the structures that respond to chemicals of smell and taste, and how the sensations of smell and taste are perceived in the brain. We'll also talk about disorders of both of these senses, and you'll have an opportunity to perform a fun experiment to test the importance of smell to the perception of flavor.
In this lesson, we'll go over the fascinating topic of cellular metabolism—the chemical reactions that occur in your body's cells. We'll review the important concepts of homeostasis and negative feedback, and you'll learn that homeostasis is maintained by thousands of chemical reactions that occur every second. Those chemical reactions either build larger molecules from smaller ones or break apart larger molecules into smaller ones, so we'll discuss what happens in those two major types of reactions. You'll also learn about the capture and storage of energy, the role of enzymes in metabolic pathways, and disorders of cellular metabolism.
In today's lesson, we'll continue our study of important chemicals in the human body. We'll start out by reviewing the differences between atoms and ions, and the differences between ionic and covalent bonds. We'll then move on to a study of water, its unique properties, and its important functions. You'll learn that water breaks apart molecules called electrolytes, and that the three major types of electrolytes include acids, bases, and salts. We'll discuss the pH scale—a way to measure the degree of acidity in a substance, and you'll learn about the conditions called acidosis and alkalosis. We'll finish up the lesson with a discussion about imbalances of three important ions—sodium, potassium, and calcium.
Today, we'll go over the wonders of prenatal development. You'll learn about the roles both men and women play in the creation of the zygote—the very first cell that starts a new human life. We'll then follow that new creature through the amazing changes that happen during the first eight weeks after fertilization (the embryonic period). We'll also discuss significant events that occur during the rest of the pregnancy (the fetal period). At the end of this lesson, I'll tell you about some common causes of both male and female infertility.
In this lesson, you'll learn about pregnancy from the mother's point of view. We'll start with a discussion about the placenta, and then we'll talk about the way pregnancy affects the mother's different organ systems. We'll also discuss the events of childbirth and what a mother experiences during the postpartum period. Many women choose to breastfeed (lactate), so I'll also tell you how breasts prepare for lactation, how milk is produced, and how it's secreted. We'll end this lesson with a discussion of a complication of pregnancy called gestational diabetes.
In today's lesson, we'll focus on the neonatal period, infancy, and childhood. We'll start with a discussion of normal circulation of blood in children and adults and compare that to circulation in the fetus. That's so you can understand the big changes that occur in the heart, blood vessels, and lungs as soon as a baby takes his first breath. We'll then talk about other changes in the first four weeks after birth (the neonatal period), and we'll move on to a discussion of reflexes and brain maturation during the first year and significant changes that occur during childhood. At the end of this lesson, you'll learn about a common developmental disorder in children called cerebral palsy.
In our final lesson, we'll go over puberty, adulthood, and old age. You'll learn how hormones work during puberty and what physical changes occur during that time. We'll also discuss changes that occur during young adulthood and middle age and spend some time on menopause. I devote a chapter to the topic of senescence—the process of aging during the years 65 and over. In that chapter, you'll learn several reasons why getting older causes age-related changes. We'll end this lesson with a discussion of ways to slow down the aging process.

A former Milwaukee teacher accused of having sexual contact with two students made a plea in court Friday.
Megan Garland, 29, was charged with having sexual relations with two students after she was caught performing a sex act with a 14-year-old in a school parking lot in May.
A 15-year-old student who was a friend of the first victim came forward alleging that he also had sexual contact with Garland.
Garland was a teacher at Messmer High School at the time of the incidents.
In court Friday, Garland entered no contest pleas to both charges.
She is expected back in court for sentencing on Jan. 3.

Summit County fishing report
Ryan Summerlin January 10, 2012
Editor's note: Dave Coulson is the Colorado state editor for FishExplorer.com. He contributes a weekly fishing report to the Summit Daily News. For more local and regional fishing information, visit www.fishexplorer.com.
Lake trout action continues to be good at area waters, most notably Green Mountain, William Fork and Granby. The ticket seems to be to fish deeper water from 30-60 feet with tube jigs tipped with a strip of sucker, although there is a small group of anglers who consistently work shallow waters, 10 feet or less. Typically these folks fish from shelters. The darken space allows them to watch the action unfold in the hole. This tactic also works well for other species, especially walleye and northern pike.
With the warmer days, many fly fishers have been taking to the tailwater fisheries, such as the Blue, below Dillon, and South Park's Dream Stream. Don't expect to be alone, especially on the weekends. With open water at a premium, runs frequently get shared. Midges are always a good bet right now, sizes 20-24 in black or red on lighter tippet.
For those just looking to catch a few trout, consider fishing some of the less popular waters such as Officers Gulch, Sylvan State Park or Williams Creek Reservoir. The fish are generally cooperative and you'll make up size with action. Even popular water, such as Dillon, remains productive, if you take the time to set up shop away from the crowds. At inlet areas, fish a bit further out on the channel, which will often produce better action. For rainbows, small teardrop jigs tipped with a mealworm is a good choice. Be sure to work the entire water column until you find the right depth.

San Diego's reggae rockers Thicker Than Thieves are set to play South Lake Tahoe's Whiskey Dick's Saloon April 5.
On a massive spring tour, the four-piece is heading to Lake Tahoe after stops in Colorado, Nebraska and Florida. The band, now more than 10 years old, is leading a resurgence in the reggae-rock sound of Southern California.
Lake Tahoe Action: What has the reception been like in Nebraska?
We just had an amazing show in Omaha. The reception has been unbelievable. A lot of towns we've been playing have been college towns. A lot of the kids love the music. Florida was great, but I would have to say Nebraska has been our best reception on this tour yet.
Would you say your music is a reflection of where you're from or do you try to keep the two separate?
I think it definitely has to do with where I'm from and the bands I grew up listening to. Most importantly, the lifestyle: skateboarding, surfing, a lot of action sports stuff. Definitely the SoCal reggae scene is what's happening right now. Because we've been in it for so long, it's allowed us to pave the way in some ways.
But certainly Southern California plays a big role in the sounds as well as the lifestyle we live.
What do you think is happening in the rock reggae genre right now?
Reggae is so universal and for a band like Thicker Than Thieves being more of a crossover band a lot of the vibe behind the music is timeless. You certainly see waves in different genres. Reggae has certainly seen its wave.
It seems like California reggae is on the rise right now. Bands like Slightly Stoopid, Long Beach Dub Allstars, The Expendables, Rebelution have all been in the mix for a lot of years now, and a lot of new bands are coming up. It's definitely getting saturated. But I think the bands that are really standing out are the bands that are out doing what we're doing, hitting the street, making new music, putting out new releases. As far as the genre we're in, I think it's making a rise. I think it's coming back.
Do you relate more to the reggae side or the rock side of your music?
I think a lot of it has to do with how I'm feeling at the moment. Certainly, the guys that I play with all have their own styles. I've hand-selected all of my guys based on not only their playing abilities, but also what they can bring to the table on the writing side of things.
We definitely all come from a reggae background. I grew up listening to punk rock. Back in the day, they didn't know where to put all the reggae bands, so they put them with the punk bands. You have two genres of music that aren't really mainstream like they are today. That's how, as a kid, I got introduced to reggae. I'd go to see bands like Operation Ivy, Bad Brains or Bad Religion. They hosted all the reggae bands. That, to me, is how that crossover happened.
Are you working on new material?
I have three more songs I'm working on right now. We're going to put out another EP before our next tour, and hopefully a full-length by the end of the year. I have some stuff I'm working on personally with Miguel Happoldt from Skunk Records. He also produced Sublime, Slightly Stoopid, a lot of big reggae acts.
So after 10 years you aren't tired of the music thing?
You know, like I said, music is timeless. It's one of those things. Without it, life wouldn't be what it is. I'm so used to it. I love it. I love the lifestyle. It certainly has its highs and lows. There are sacrifices that are made along the way to make it happen. That's tough sometimes. There's a fine balance there, but we're still trying to figure out how that balance works.
What distinguishes Thicker Than Thieves from the popular music acts of today?
We'll play punk rock songs at a reggae show. We'll play reggae songs at a punk rock show. We're all about getting people to stop and listen to something that maybe they haven't heard before. I think a lot of the stuff we're writing and have written in the past really reflects on just that: how to stand out, how to be different.
So you don't really listen to Taylor Swift?

Tips for picking safe toys
Before you consider what the hottest toys are for the kids, take a moment to think about what's safe for kids in each age group. There's nothing worse than trying to make a child happy and ending up accidentally causing one of the 20 toy-related deaths of children a year in the United States. That scary figure is from Safe Kids USA that also reports that about 186,000 kids went to emergency rooms in 2009 because of toy-related injuries.
Jesus Alderete, coordinator for the Injury Prevention Program at Children's Medical Center, talked with DMN staff writer Christina Rosales for her helpful guide of do's and don'ts. You can read her story here. Here are her top tips:
Keep toys with small, removable pieces away from young kids, who frequently put things in their mouths, including Hot Wheels cars and Lego sets meant for older kids.
Avoid bead or button eyes in stuffed animals for babies; kids can choke on them. Choose toys with embroidered or fabric eyes instead.
Remove strings from hoodies; these can cause strangulation.
Latex balloons are the top cause of choking deaths for kids under 5. When the balloons pop, kids find the shreds and put them in their mouths.
Also, be sure to check the Consumer Product Safety Commission for a list of recalled toys here.

|January till December
Strategically this was an excellent location. Strangers came from Alsace and built a castle in around 1020 on the Wülpelsberg near the confluence of the Aare, Reuss and Limmat. They called it "Havichsberch", and immediately started calling themselves after it - the Habsburgers.
Together with the castles Wildegg and Brunegg, this threesome defied the Kyburg dynasty in Lenzburg. When the Habsburgs moved their power towards the east, their castles did indeed pass into foreign hands, yet they did not perish.
There is no question that the Aargauer Trail would lead past them in the form of a four-day tour from Frick to Bremgarten. On the second stage of the SchweizMobil Route 42 from Aarau to Brugg, two of these castles are worth a detour - Wildegg and Habsburg. The walk begins in the historic city centre of Aarau and leads from there to the river Aare, which it then follows for a considerable distance. Amongst other things, it runs along the newly created branch of the renaturalised Aare River near Rupperswil.
The trail ends at Schinznach-Bad thermal baths and water park, making the easy four-hour hike a must for the family programme.

A judge threw a man back in jail after deputies said he intentionally tried to run over three kids and killed their dog.
On Nov. 2, deputies said two teens and a 12-year-old had to jump out of the way because Daniel Jaurigui, 21, was barreling toward them. The children's dog wasn't able to get out of the way in time.
This isn't the first time deputies said Jaurigui attacked the children. Authorities arrested him in August after deputies said he went after the 12-year-old with a machete.
Deputies said the kids' mother is battling cancer. She held the body of the dog while they took pictures for evidence.
Jaurigui is charged with three counts of child abuse and one count of extreme cruelty to animals.

The 19-year-old Two and a Half Men star has spoken out against the CBS sitcom in a manner that's sure to ruffle some network feathers.
"If you watch Two and a Half Men, please stop watching Two and a Half Men," Jones says in a video posted on YouTube by TheForerunner777 (watch it below) in which the actor discusses his Christian faith. "I'm on Two and a Half Men and I don't want to be on it. Please stop watching it. Please stop filling your head with filth."
"People say it's just entertainment," he continues. "Do some research on the effects of television in your brain and I promise you, you'll have a decision to make when it comes to ... what you watch on television. It's bad news."
Jones, who in 2008 was paid roughly $1.2 million a season, then references "the enemy" and how someone like him cannot appear on a TV show. (Jones has played Jake Harper on Men since 2003.)
"A lot of people don't like to think about how deceptive the enemy is," says Jones. "There's no playing around when it comes to eternity ... People will see us and be like, 'I can be a Christian and be on a show like Two and a Half Men.' You can't. You cannot be a true God-fearing person and be on a television show like that. I know I can't."
On the subject of his series, Jones concludes, "I'm not okay with what I'm learning [about] what the Bible says and being on that television show. You go all or nothing."
A rep for CBS tells PEOPLE they are "declining comment." Jones's mother also declined to comment.

Tesla Reports First Profitable Quarter; Hires Aston Martin's Chief Vehicle Engineer

Sender E-mail
Tesla shares surged almost 30 percent in after-market trading in New York to as much as $72.99
Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk was right: the company
certainly is profitable
now, and even managed to beat analysts' expectations.
For Q1 2013, Tesla reported a net income of $11.2 million, which was quite a jump from an $89.9 million loss in the year-ago quarter. Excluding certain items, Tesla's profit came in at 12 cents a share, which was a boost from a loss of 76 cents a share in Q1 2012.
Analysts expected a profit of about 4 cents a share.
"We exceeded our own targets for deliveries, significantly expanded gross margin, and improved execution throughout the company," said Tesla. "Excluding non-cash warrant and stock option items, we generated a profit of $15 million. Including those factors, our GAAP profit was $11 million. Importantly, we achieved profitability despite the benefit of a one-time accounting gain related to the DOE warrant.
"2013 is off to a strong start, and we look forward to seeing more of you on the road in a Model S this year."
Revenue also saw a huge year-over-year boost, totaling $562 million (up from $30.2 million in the year-ago quarter).
Tesla had an operations loss of $5.58 million, down from $88.8 million in the year-ago quarter.
Tesla sold 4,900 Model S sedans in the first quarter, beating its previous projections of 4,500. Model S deliveries for the entire year should total 21,000, which slightly exceeds previous forecasts of about 20,000.
The company said its sales of zero-emission vehicle credits to automakers totaled $68 million, or 12 percent of revenue for Q1 2013.
Just this week, it was reported that Tesla could
receive $250 million in environmental credits
from California alone this year.
For Q2 2013, Tesla expects to build 5,000 Model S' and ship about 4,500 in North America (the rest are headed to Europe).
"Operating expenses are expected to increase moderately in Q2," said Tesla. "R&D expenses are expected to increase slightly from Q1 as the pace of product development starts to pick up. SG&A expenses will continue to rise moderately, primarily due to the growth in our stores and service centers.
"We plan to spend about $200 million on capital expenditures in 2013, as we conclude the majority of our investment in the Tesla Factory and Model S tooling."
Tesla shares surged almost 30 percent in after-market trading in New York to as much as $72.99.
In other Tesla-related news, the company hired Aston Martin's Chief Engineer of Vehicle Engineering
Chris Porritt this week. He will now be Tesla's
Vice President of Vehicle Engineering.
"Tesla is a hardcore technology company, which means that anyone leading a team of engineers must be an outstanding engineer themself, as well as a good leader," said Musk. "Chris demonstrated exactly that in his prior role at Aston Martin, creating in the One-77 what was arguably their best car ever."
Tesla has certainly come a long way from this time last year. After problems with Model S shipment delays, a run-in with a poor review from
The New York Times,
and a production delay announcement for
the Model X
, Tesla has now proved that nothing can hold it back.
Tesla began shipping 500 Model S' a week in March, exceeding the sales outlook of 4,500 posted in the February shareholder letter.
It later announced that the company would be able to
pay off its $465 million government loan
within five years, and that this current quarter would be its
first profitable one
. Clearly, the company was right.
Tesla is looking to keep that momentum by any means necessary. The electric auto maker has worked hard to please customers with a new battery replacement program as well as new service programs, which feature valet for customers who need to send their Model S' to the shop -- and can even borrow (or later buy) a better Model S or Tesla Roadster as loaner vehicles.

(House Bill 3351) as well, which would allow distributors and manufacturers of electric vehicles only to sell directly to customers without the use of dealerships. Musk called this bill a matter of "life or death" for Tesla.

RE: Nonsense
I wouldn't go that far. I've always owned multiple vehicles and I would gladly try out an EV if the range was enough for my normal commute. It would make a lot of sense for people who have normal commutes within the range (which 200 miles would be plenty for pretty much everyone, who really drives more than 200 miles in a day...normally...I drove over a 1000 today but I'm moving). It would allow you to never have to worry about stopping to get gas and since they will have charging pads you wouldn't have to remember to plug it in.
The problem is that people only look at their own situation. I love driving so an EV wouldn't work as my only vehicle, but I could see me having one as an extra vehicle. I also just came from the DC area and I know a lot of people who would love to be able to drive to work without having to deal with getting gas. For instance, read this article
and you can see how EVs could be very beneficial.

CHARLES TOWN - To honor a man who spent his life helping others, the Davis family knew the best tribute was through a simple but meaningful act - giving blood.
On July 13, the American Red Cross will host a blood drive in Charles Town in memory of James Blackwell "Blackie" Davis Jr., in conjunction with the Davis family.
James died in 2010 from myelodysplasia. In 2011, family members decided to team up with the American Red Cross to honor James by encouraging others to participate in an activity that he supported throughout his life.

Journal photo by Samantha Cronk
Sitting outside the house that she helped her husband restore, Eileen Davis displays the poster she and her family made in honor of the annual blood drives the family holds in honor of her husband James Blackwell "Blackie" Davis Jr.
"He seemed to have paid it forward in so many ways, and I hope that we can continue to pay it forward for many, many people. You never know when you're going to need blood," said Eileen Davis, James' wife.
Sitting beneath the shade of trees she and James planted together from seedlings, Davis described her husband as a giving man to whom no one was a stranger and who only ever thought of others. In addition to giving blood, she said James was an "artistic soul" who had a passion for history, family and working with his hands.
Davis said the moment James chose to dedicate his life to giving blood was when he returned home from military service to learn that his entire family mother, father, sister, brother-in-law and nephew were in the hospital after a car accident.
After the accident, James donated blood twice a year for 40 years until he was diagnosed.
When James became ill, he required regular blood transfusions, calling on the services that he had dedicated his adult life to helping. He fought his disease for nine years, receiving blood, platelets and when the disease progressed, a bone marrow transfusion.
"We actually never talked about him dying because he was always living in the moment. He was so full of hope," Davis said. "If you don't have hope, you have nothing, and he had hope."
This will be the third annual blood drive held in James' memory, but the first held in his hometown.
"The goal is 75 units (of blood), which is on the larger side. A typical blood drive is 25 to 35 units, so this one is quite larger than your typical blood drive," said Jeremy Nettnin, donor recruitment representative.
Davis said the Charles Town community has provided overwhelming support for the blood drive, with friends and residents offering to bake or purchase refreshments for the donors and volunteer workers. Businesses have also added their support by offering discounts to donors or gift cards for giveaway prizes.
"To have the blood drive in the hometown where he was well-known and well-loved just means so much to me," Davis said.
The American Red Cross typically receives up to five requests a year to host a blood drive in honor or in memory of a local resident for the Eastern Panhandle area, Nettnin said.
The blood drive will be held at 221 E. Washington Street from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 13. Residents can schedule an appointment for the blood drive by contacting 1-800-733-2767 or by visiting www.redcrossblood.org.

One of the sweetest guys you'll ever meet. He'll always listen to your problems if you're close with him, and will do anything for you. He can have a temper at times if people give him too much bullshit. It takes him time to get over someone, and he tends to fall back into the same trap of a girl if they are on and off. Also very witty and funny, one of the best people ever. His eyes are amazing and you could look at them the whole day. That and his personality combined makes girls like him or fall in love with him all the time. He's talented and plays some instrument. Puts his friends first.
Riley is so sweet..I would be so lucky to go out with him.

A chill girl who couldn't care less about what others think about her. She has many friends, but only a few best friends. She can crack a joke and get high grades all at the same time. Her inability to sit still in class proves her athleticism. Her eyes light up at multiple topics and her smile can brighten the day. She is scared of quite a few things, but will always face them to prove someone wrong. She is stubborn like crazy and will fight until she wins. Watching her is like watching a ray of sunshine and being with her is like a breath of fresh air. She is beautiful, but doesn't know it. Seeing her get lost in something is intriguing and she is kind of a nerd. This girl is sassy and won't let anybody tell her that she is any less than what God made her. She exudes confidence and is always kind no matter how much she says she hates everyone, she is lying. She has a big loving heart and will always stand up for what is right. If you find one, hold one her.
She is such a Riley

text: Manufacturers and die and mold shops can solve chatter problems in milling operations with Iscar's ChatterFree end mills. According to the company, the cutters' variable-pitch flute pattern eliminates harmonic vibration, the main source of chatter. This enables faster cutting and finer finish in rough or finish slotting, shoulder milling and cavity milling. The chatter-free feature is available in both solid carbide end mills and tips in the company's Multi-Master replaceable-tip line. Diameter range is 0.25" to 0.75" (6 to 20 mm) for the solid carbide end mills and 0.312" to 0.75" (8 to 20 mm) for Multi-Master tips. The solid carbide version can accommodate full-slot machining up to 2 × D. Depth capability on the replaceable-tip version is more limited because the active length is shorter. In full-slotting applications on alloy steel, the solid carbide version handles 0.03 to 0.05 feed rates at 180 to 220 mm per minute surface speed and 2 × D depth of cut.

Deutsche Bank warns of big hit to profit
Deutsche Bank grappling with a series of legal problems on both sides of the Atlantic, warned that restructuring costs would result in a substantial hit to the bank's fourth-quarter earnings and could tip it into a loss for the last three months of the year.
The bank said on Thursday that the fourth quarter would be affected by one-time charges linked to its restructuring plans and its integration of retailer Postbank, as well as charges from its transaction banking activities in the Netherlands.
"I wanted to make you aware that [the one-time items] could be substantial in nature and could lead to a loss," chief financial officer Stefan Krause said on a conference call with analysts Thursday.
Most analysts had projected net income of between €500m and €600m ($654m and $784m). The bank earned €147m in last year's fourth quarter.
The warning came a day after German prosecutors raided Deutsche Bank's Frankfurt headquarters in connection with a probe into alleged tax evasion. They said co-chief executive officer Jürgen Fitschen and Krause were under investigation because they had signed off on a tax document. Five other employees were arrested.
In a separate matter, the bank is also being investigated as one of several lenders suspected of manipulating interbank lending rates, including the London interbank offered rate, or Libor. Also, US authorities have indicated that foreign banks may have to adhere to rules that would force them to allocate more capital to their US operations.
And a Munich judge could rule as early as Friday that the bank has to pay hundreds of millions of euros in a long-running lawsuit over allegations that the bank helped cause the insolvency of Germany's Kirch Media Group.
"These guys have got a lot on their plate," Christopher Wheeler, a London-based banking analyst with Mediobanca, said of Deutsche's battles.
Deutsche Bank's stock fell 2.7% in Frankfurt.
With a balance sheet of €2.2 trillion, Deutsche Bank is Europe's largest lender, yet one of the least well-capitalised, analysts say. Its profits have been squeezed in Europe, while new regulations and back-to-back financial crises have rocked the investment-banking industry as a whole.
The bank's various legal problems on both sides of the Atlantic could potentially saddle it with as much as €2.5bn in costs for which it hasn't made provisions, Deutsche Bank said in its most recent quarterly report.
On Friday, a Munich court could rule against Deutsche Bank in its decade-long legal battle with the heirs of German media mogul Leo Kirch. In a preliminary assessment of the case last month, the presiding judge said he estimates Deutsche Bank's former chief executive, Rolf Breuer, caused damage of between €120m and €1.5bn to Kirch Media Group by saying in a 2002 television interview that the company seemed unlikely to receive any further loans from its banks. The judge added that it is likely Deutsche Bank and Breuer will be found liable when he rules.
The investigation that has drawn in Fitschen and Krause relates to allegations that Deutsche Bank participated in trades in carbon-emission certificates that were designed to evade value-added taxes, costing Germany's treasury hundreds of millions of euros. The bank has said it is cooperating with the investigation.
Deutsche Bank is also one of at least 16 banks under investigation for alleged manipulation of benchmark interest rates. News emerged Thursday that Swiss bank UBS is close to an agreement to pay more than $1bn to resolve allegations that it tried to rig rates to boost trading profits, roughly double what Barclays paid this year.
Analysts said the potential UBS settlement is a bad sign for Deutsche Bank and others under investigation.
"Kirch, Libor, carbon emissions, that's all going to hit the [capital] base" if and when the bank is forced to pay, Wheeler said. "This is just not helpful."
Deutsche Bank is seeking to trim its non-core operations, part of a larger movement among investment banks globally to reduce risk and comply with new regulations, while attempting to cope with a weak business environment. Investment banks have cut tens of thousands of jobs. Many have concluded that thinner profit margins make it no longer worthwhile to compete as second- or third-tier players.
In recent weeks, UBS and Citigroup have unveiled a total of more than 20,000 job cuts. Credit Suisse has made significant investment-banking cuts, while Barclays also plans to eliminate as many as 2,000 jobs in its investment bank as part of a broad restructuring of the company, according to people familiar with the matter.
During its September strategy presentation, Deutsche Bank's new co-CEOs, Anshu Jain and Fitschen, said they planned annual cost cuts of €4.5bn by 2015, which would result in one-time restructuring costs of €4bn over three years.
The bank also said this summer that it would cut 1,900 jobs, most in the investment bank, on top of 500 jobs last year.
In the third quarter, Deutsche Bank reported expenses related to its new restructuring and cost-cutting program of €320m, in addition to €71m for the integration of Postbank.
Deutsche Bank had feared that bringing its US arm into compliance with the Dodd-Frank law could force it to inject up to $20bn of new capital into the unit, according to an internal memo reviewed by The Wall Street Journal last year. Instead, Deutsche Bank converted its large US investment bank into a direct offshoot of the German parent company, enabling it to avoid Dodd-Frank's tougher capital requirements.
Krause said it is too soon to say how any new rules would affect the bank.
In addition, Krause addressed at length reports that US securities regulators are investigating allegations that the bank hid billions of dollars of paper losses during the financial crisis. He said law firm Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson, in conjunction with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Federal Reserve, had examined whistleblowers' claims that traders at Deutsche Bank overvalued a portfolio of derivatives to hide rapidly mounting losses when financial markets were collapsing in 2008.
"Because of significant efforts of the individuals directly involved in that process, the bank valuations and financial reporting were proper during the period in question and the allegations of fraud are wholly unfounded," Krause said.
