FC Barcelona will have to deliver a spectacular performance at Camp Nou after losing 2-0 on the road Wednesday in the first leg of its Champions League elimination battle with AC Milan.
Barça, which has been nearly unbeatable in all competitions this season, dominated the ball in the first half, yet the home side allowed their highly favored opponents only a handful of genuine chances.
AC Milan grabbed the lead in the 57th minute, when Kevin-Prince Boateng connected after teammate Cristian Zapata appeared to touch the ball with his hands.
Barcelona's vociferous protested gained them nothing but a yellow card for defender Gerard Pique.
Leo Messi had a chance to bring Barça even, but his free kick sailed over the Milan goal, while Andres Iniesta's long shot in the 76th minute passed inches outside the post.
It was just a few minutes later when Muntari put the game out of reach, delighting the 80,000-strong home crowd.
In Istanbul, German club Schalke managed to pull out a 1-1 draw against a Galatasaray that recently added Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder to an already formidable lineup.
Burak Yilmaz scored for the home side at the 12-minute mark and U.S. international Jermaine Jones got the equalizer in the waning moments of the first half. EFE

Creamy Parmesan White Wine Sauce with Pasta
We made our take on guilt-free Alfredo sauce with only 419 calories!
Slice the grapefruit in quarters, and do the same with the lime and orange. Hand squeeze, or use a juicer. (Fresh squeezed juice tastes better, of course, but if you need to buy juice go ahead.)
In each of two champagne glasses, add juice of 1/2 a grapefruit, 1/4 a lime, and about a tablespoon (or splash) of orange juice.
Pour champagne over the juice until the glass is full.
Garnish with a lime wedge and serve while still chilled.

When it comes to educating Philadelphia's public school children, what constitutes "reform" of the system?
Opinions vary, but the ones that matter right now reside in Gov. Corbett's administration.
That's because Corbett won't release a $45 million grant the School District of Philadelphia needs until his education secretary decides reforms have begun to make the schools better and more fiscally sound.
The Corbett administration attached a nearly identical restriction to the $120 million the district could collect annually, starting in 2014, from a one-cent increase in the sales tax in Philadelphia.

Securities Operations:
Update on Actions Taken to Address Day Trading Concerns
GAO-02-20: Published: Nov 27, 2001. Publicly Released: Jan 8, 2002.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-8678
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Concerns arose in the late 1990s about day trading, particularly the use of questionable advertising to attract customers without fully disclosing or by downplaying the risks involved. Concerns were also raised that traders were losing large amounts of money. Day traders as a group and day trading firms have continued to evolve and are generally more experienced and sophisticated about securities markets and investing than was the case several years ago. Likewise, day trading firms' operations have evolved, and many have shifted their primary focus away from retail customers and toward attracting institutional customers, such as hedge funds and money market managers. Furthermore, more firms are likely to engage in proprietary trading activities through professional traders that trade the firms' own capital. Finally, although the number of day trading firms appears to have remained constant, several day trading firms have been acquired by other brokerages and market participants whose customers want the direct access to securities markets and market information that technology used by day trading firms provides. Since GAO's 2000 review, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the self-regulatory organizations have addressed many of the concerns raised about day trading. In addition to the ongoing changes in the industry and regulatory action, day trading firms have responded to changing market conditions and regulatory scrutiny by changing their behavior. The most noticeable changes appear in their advertising and website information, which now generally highlight the risks associated with day trading and the fact that day trading is not for everyone.

Female Athlete of the Week: Megan Moylan, North East
Megan Moylan will face quite a challenge if she hopes to match her success from her junior golf season at North East.
After all, she won two invitationals and placed second in the District 10 tournament. She then won the PIAA West Regional and placed fourth at the PIAA Class AA tournament. Moylan later was named the Region 3 Golfer of the Year and the Erie Times-News District 10 Golfer of the Year.
Recently, Moylan proved that she might be ready to repeat that success. Moylan shot a 4-over-par 76 to repeat as champion at the 14th annual Jean Forsyth Memorial Tournament at Green Meadows Golf Course.
With more performances like that, it could be another big season for Moylan.

text: We consider a particle in the fundamental state of an infinite well (in 1-D) having walls at x = 0 and x = a. The wall at x = a is rapidly deplaced at x = 2a (deplacement time short compared to the natural period of the system 2p/?1 or h?1/2p = E1). If we measure the energy of the particle soon after the expansion, what will be the most probable value ? Compare this energy with the initial energy.

MIN: The New Simplicity in Graphic Design
Creative Director and founder of Transmission, Stuart Tolley, got in touch to let us know about his excellent new title MIN: The New Simplicity in Graphic Design.
As the first comprehensive look at the rebirth of simplicity in graphic design, it showcases the minimalist work of around 160 international designers across a range of formats and media. From editorial design and album artwork to packaging design and branding, the book features some of the best work by renowned studios and designers including Made Thought, Bunch, Stockholm Design Lab, Wang Zhi-Hong and Warp Records.
The considered design of the publication also echoes its minimalist subject matter and is divided in to three sections (Reduction, Production, Geometry) — each of these including an exclusive interview with Cereal Magazine, BVD and Erased Tapes Records.
MIN: The New Simplicity in Graphic Design is published by Thames & Hudson and is available now.

No Women On Top?
One billion rising – only in ad campaigns. Not in India's policy-making bodies. Seats there are reserved for only men.
Saw the inspiring one billion rising videos last week? Feel empowered? If only reality was as empowering.
They say that the most powerful person in the country who has a generational grip over the grand old party of the country is a woman. They also say that the Cambridge-and Oxford-educated economist Prime Minister of the country is just a pawn in her larger scheme of things. They say so much.
Going by the presence of the woman on top and our propagation of the one billion rising campaign, it would seem that at least our government would propagate the presence of women in decision-making positions. Or at least include them in decisions which would affect policy in India. So it would seem. Till you take a look at the list and composition of Empowered Group of Ministers (EGoM) the power houses of policy decisions and who "mans" them.

And they would still say that the corridors of power in the national capital are held together by a woman.
These groups of old men are meant to take the most important decisions regarding the country's economy and they are the best men the ruling party has in its kitty. Sadly, just one woman makes it to the elite club of EGoMs. And we all know how attempts are being made to quell her voice and clip her wings within her own ministry. But the question is why do women find no place in the EGoMs and are not part of any policy making body at the highest level? Is there a dearth of educated, talented, sound minded women capable of taking decisions pertaining to the country's economic health and needs?
We spoke to Soma Banerjee, National Policy Editor of The Economic Times to understand this conundrum. She said, "The EGoMs constitute of those ministers who have a specialisation in economics. However, if we see the list of men who occupy these EGoMs there is no reason why women won't have the same bandwidth".
If the Deputy Chairperson of the Planning Commission, Montek Singh Ahluwalia – the genius who endorsed the Rs 32 a day poverty line (with a lame defense that he had not come up with it but merely presented an existing report) – and Kapil Sibal – the procreator of Zero Loss theorem in 2G spectrum allocation – can make it to these think-tanks then a Renuka Chowdhury could also easily fit the bill. Imagine a woman coming up with the zero loss or the Rs 32 brilliance. She'd never be taken seriously again, while the men still are. The way our society is modeled, a stupid man is only stupid but a stupid woman is a danger and thus doomed to be excluded. A woman has to be twice as smart as a man to be taken half as seriously. The gaffes that some of these enlightened gents have easily recovered from (with the sense of entitlement they wear) would have taken a lady the entire term to live down. The truth is men can say foolish things and still be taken seriously. So, to be among the privileged few who design the country's power, transport, agriculture, environment and all other ultra-important policies – a man just needs experience in public transactions but a woman must be doubly intelligent, smart, experienced and adept at her job.
Even Indira Gandhi faced that kind of sexism. After her father died, Congress party stalwarts pretty much reduced her to the stature of a "goongi gudiya" but the sons of the dynasty can be a doofus extraordinaire – yet, party heavyweights will give his most embarrassing utterances a standing ovation.
In fact, the dearth of eligible women is also a man-made crisis. The Women's Reservation Bill has now become an albatross around the necks of most political parties, as they publicly can't shun the proposal although not wholeheartedly wanting to part away with 33 per cent of the pie reserved solely for women. Banerjee says, "the reason that that there are so few women at the decision-making level both in the Ministries and in these EGoMs is the fact that their political representation is very poor". Just 11 per cent members in Lok Sabha are women, matched by an equally abysmal number in Rajya Sabha.
The West is looking East to find a solution to its economic mess. At the same time it is looking at women as future leaders in financial, banking, corporate sectors. India too has not remained untouched by the phenomenon. Policy-making in economic sectors has till now remained a solely male bastion, (except for Indira Gandhi no woman has ever adorned the seat of finance minister). But, given the sorry state of affairs, it is only logical that we look towards greater gender diversity and instill feminine qualities in our policy-making.
If only men were the saviours of world economy and masters at the number games, the heavily testosteroned Wall Street wouldn't have been in the deplorable condition it is in. If only the reckless decision making of the men and walking on the edge behavior would have been balanced with prudence and better human resource management rather than just balance sheet management, perhaps we would have enjoyed the fruits of a more stable economy.
Melissa S Fisher in her book, Wall Street Women shows how women – generally associated with risk averse qualities – are helping the financial district of US stay afloat in times of economic crisis with their "mothers making family purchases" prudent mantra.
Feminine qualities add greatly to board rooms and stock markets as has been convincingly argued by prominent ladies. A more representative group will automatically make better decisions. Isn't that the philosophy and wisdom behind democracy?
Given below is the incredible story of how two women in Iceland have been instrumental in rebuilding the country's economy since its collapse in 2008 using the feminine model of doing business.
The success stories of the Chandra Kochhars and Kiran Mazumdar Shaws seem overdone and more like cherry-picking when absolutely nothing is happening at the political-and decision-making level. It is not enough for the ruling party to have a woman president to make women greater stakeholders in the society. One billion can rise and break into a jig for reasons unlimited but only when women are at the helm of policy-making and decisions can things begin to change for their good and for the good of the country.

Estelle Bennett (July 22, 1941 – February 11, 2009)[1] was an American singer. Bennett was a member of the girl group The Ronettes, along with her sister Ronnie Spector (the 'Ronnie' of the band's name) and cousin Nedra Talley.
Early life[edit]
Estelle and her sister, Veronica, grew up in New York. Children of an Irish father and African American and Cherokee mother, were reported to have been bullied at school,[2] because of their mixed race appearance. She attended George Washington High School in Manhattan where she was valedictorian. Known as studious and interested in fashion, she went on to study at Manhattan's Fashion Institute of Technology.[3]
The first incarnation of what was to become the Ronettes appeared in when Estelle was 14. After a number of unsuccessful attempts the trio reinvented themselves as the Ronettes. Signed up by a then 23-year-old Phil Spector, Ronnie was made lead, with Estelle and Nedra as backing . After the Ronettes' 1966 break-up, she recorded a single for Laurie Records, "The Year 2000/The Naked Boy." She then quit the music business and had rarely been seen since. She married the group's road manager Joe Dong, and they had a daughter, Toyin.[4] In 2007, when the group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, it was decided that she was too fragile to perform with them, and spoke only a brief two sentences during her acceptance speech, "I would just like to say, thank you very much for giving us this award. I'm Estelle of the Ronettes, thank you." She did, however, come back out on stage for a final bow with the rest of the Ronettes after the performance of "Be My Baby".[1][5]
Personal life and death[edit]
She was frequently romantically associated with a number of contemporary singers including Mick Jagger, George Harrison, Johnny Mathis and George Hamilton. Her mental health deteriorated in the following years. It was reported that, during a visit to fellow former Ronette, Nedra, she slept through her baby daughter crying. [6] She was reported to have had periods of homelessness when she would approach strangers in the street of New York, telling people that she would be singing with the Ronettes in a jazz club.[7] Bennett died of colon cancer aged 67 in Englewood, New Jersey. Her body was discovered on February 11, 2009.[1] A week after her death it was revealed that she had suffered from anorexia nervosa and schizophrenia in the years after the Ronettes break up and that later on she had been homeless in New York.[1][5]

The Longhorns got run-scoring singles from Chance Wheeless and Kyle Russell and an RBI-groundout by Preston Clark to tie the game at 5 in the third.
The Cornhuskers scored the eventual winning run in the seventh when Buckman singled, went to second on a wild pitch and scored on a single by Andrew Brown.
Nebraska's Tony Watson (10-1) relieved starter Johnny Dorn during the third and threw 5.1 scoreless innings for the win. Brett Jensen took over for Watson with two on and two out in the eighth and got the final four outs for the save.
Texas reliever Austin Wood (4-3) took the loss.
Kansas and Missouri played late Saturday, with the winner to play Nebraska for the tournament title.

Baylor (35-24) finished pool play 1-2, while Tech (31-26-1) went winless in three games.
Baylor's Kevin Sevigny opened the sixth by reaching base on an error, advanced to third on a hit by Tim Jackson and scored on a single by Chase Gerdes.

Kyle Martin homered for the Red Raiders.
Baylor's Cory VanAllen (7-5) went six innings, giving up seven hits while striking out two and walking one. Nick Cassavechia got out of a two-on, one-out jam in the ninth to earn his eighth save.

Bost honored by Air Force
Fayette County Issues Tea Party co-founder and former Fayette County Commissioner Harold Bost was honored Aug. 10 at the Heritage Hall Gunter-Annex located at Gunter Air Force Base in Montgomery when he was inducted into the Air Force Enlisted Wall of Achievers.
Former Fayette County Commissioner Greg Dunn, a retired Army colonel, was one of the more than 100 people attending the ceremony honoring Bost.
"I know Harold to be a true patriot. He loves his country and he loves his community. As a former military man myself, I am proud to see someone like Harold receive such an honor," said Dunn.
Annex museum curator Bill Chivalette said honorable military service at a high level is required for those who do not make the Air Force a life-long career.
"Inductees are then considered under a high criteria and standard for remarkable life achievements and contribution to society," Chivalette said, noting the thorough review of Bost's military service and his accomplishments in business and his active role in the community. "It was hard to get Harold to talk about his philanthropic donations. He is man who gives so much, but does not want to draw attention to it."
Bost, 77, is the owner of Fairburn-based Estex, a firm manufacturing a variety of products for the aerospace, airline, public utilities and other markets. Estex business partner Brent Wilkes said determination is the word to describe the newest inductee to the USAF Enlisted Wall of Achievers.
"When Harold accepts a project, he attacks it like a heat-seeking missile. He's a determined soul, with a very big heart," Wilkes said.
Bost joined the Air Force in 1954 and served for four years beginning at Selfridge Air Force Base in Michigan, eventually earning the rank of Airman First Class while in Korea managing air operations and flight status reports.
Bost at the ceremony credited the opportunities he received in the Air Force in bringing him out of his shell and giving him the inner strength to tackle anything in life head on.
At the conclusion of his remarks, Bost acknowledged how much he appreciated all those who had come to celebrate his honor with him. He thanked the Air Force for allowing him his opportunity to serve the nation and the military men present for their award in choosing him for the Air Force Enlisted Wall of Achievers. Bost also thanked his wife, Evelyn, his friends and his business associates.
Bost said he left school midway through his sophomore year in high school to help his ailing father by managing the family dairy farm. Bost said his job was the farm, the care of the animals and getting the crops in. From the farm he went into the Air Force, and from the Air Force into the work force.
Other Air Force Enlisted Wall of Achievers recipients include Brigadier General Chuck Yeager, Johnny Cash, James Stewart, Flip Wilson, Clark Gable and President George W. Bush.

Companies Wanted for UN's Sustainable Value Chains Pilot
A UN pilot on reporting standards for sustainable value chains is getting underway. The United Nations Environment Program and the Society for Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry are actively seeking large global companies to take part in the pilot, which aims to develop and test a "capability framework" for sustainable value chains, reports Industry Week.
"Companies are being overwhelmed by initiatives to measure their sustainability performance," said project manager Tom Swarr, in the article.
The so-called "capability framework" seeks to tap into a well-dispersed group of global suppliers to develop a model for reporting on sustainability.
This new effort is part of the evolution of an earlier collaboration with the World Business Council for Sustainable Development on life cycle management, according to a press release.
The effort is meant to be complementary to existing supply chain initiatives to develop sustainability indices, as well as to measure Scope 3 GHG emissions. The groups want lower-tier companies to have the ability to provide accurate data.
A meeting to discuss results of Phase 1 and how and when to launch the next phase will take place at the SETAC Europe 20th Annual Meeting in Seville, Spain, in May.

Otters nominated for top awards
The Erie Otters have a chance to sweep all seven major OHL awards this season.
Right wing and captain Connor Brown is one of 20 finalists for the Red Tilson Trophy, which honors the Most Outstanding Player of the Year. Brown led the league in the regular season with 83 assists and 128 points (both franchise records) as well as 20 power-play goals, and also finished tied for fourth with 45 goals. He won the scoring title by 21 points over linemate Dane Fox (107 points), who's one of six finalists for the Leo Lalonde Memorial Trophy as Overage Player of the Year. He led the league with a franchise-best 64 goals.
Kris Knoblauch is one six finalists for the Matt Leyden Trophy as Coach of the Year. He led the Otters to their best regular season in franchise history with a 52-14-2-0 record and back into the playoffs for the first time in three years. Oscar Dansk is one of six finalists for the Goaltender of the Year award. He led the league with a 2.39 goals-against average and tied atop the list with six shutouts, as well as ranked among the leaders with 29 wins and a .909 save percentage. Adam Pelech is one of six finalists for the Defenseman of the Year award. He was tied for third among all defensemen with 54 points (nine goals, 45 assists) and a plus-52 rating.
Defenseman Travis Dermott (three goals, 28 points, plus-35) is one of six finalists for the Emms Family Award as Rookie of the Year. Center Connor McDavid and former Otters winger Stephen Harper, now with Belleville, are two of six finalists for the William Hanley Trophy for Most Sportsmanlike Player of the Year. He had 99 points (28 goals, 71 assists) and 20 penalty minutes, while Harper had 13 goals, 48 points and 37 penalty minutes with the Otters and Bulls. He was traded in November as part of the Brendan Gaunce deal.

All those moves are part of the organization's announced plan to focus more on winning now, improving the overall depth of their roster, rather than continuing their efforts to rebuild. But Tampa Bay find itself counting heavily on the return of Rocco Baldelli, who has managed to play only 127 games the past three seasons due to injuries.
The Rays are hedging their bets in a way by planning for Baldelli to be the primary designated hitter, with the idea that Jonny Gomes and Floyd would platoon in right field. But there is still considerable risk in planning for Baldelli to be in the lineup, and it is even more magnified because it will likely take until the middle of spring training before they get a realistic sense of what he'll be able to do.
"Rocco is the key," manager Joe Maddon said. "Whatever Rocco can do kind of defines everything else that we want to do."
Notes, Quotes
OF Cliff Floyd, 35, signed a one-year, $3 million deal with the Rays. Floyd, who gives Tampa Bay a much-needed left-handed bat, will split time between right field and DH, and he'll provide leadership and presence in the clubhouse. Injuries have been a concern for Floyd, too, as he has played more than 108 games only once in the past five seasons.
--The Rays whittled their list of arbitration-eligible players to four by agreeing to one-year deals with RHPs Gary Glover and Grant Balfour, valuable arms out of the bullpen. The players left in arbitration are LHP Scott Kazmir, RHP Dan Wheeler, 1B Carlos Pena and OF Jonny Gomes.
The addition of closer Troy Percival seemed to push Balfour into a long-relief role, but the Rays apparently decided the depth was important and kept him, which also provides an option if they include RHP Dan Wheeler or Al Reyes in a trade. He signed a split contract that will pay him $500,000 if he remains in the majors next year. Glover's deal is worth $1,075,000.
--Former Rays INF Jared Sandberg was hired as a coach at short-season Class A Hudson Valley. Sandberg, the nephew of Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg, retired after playing 12 pro seasons, including parts of three with the Rays.
New Tampa Bay closer Troy Percival (AP)
--RHP Troy Percival is guaranteed more than $8 million, and he could earn an additional $4.5 million in incentives, after signing with the Rays. To make their offer even more appealing, they agreed to buy Percival a "vintage automobile." The $40,000 investment paid off when Percival signed on. With assistance from fellow hot-rodder Dick Bosman, the Rays minor league pitching coordinator, Percival is leaning toward a classic muscle car, eyeing a black restored 1970 4-speed Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454.
--The Rays improved the level of instruction in their organization by naming Jamie Nelson the first full-time catching coordinator. He had been manager at rookie-level Princeton the past five seasons.
BY THE NUMBERS: 335 -- Total saves by Rays pitchers in 10 seasons, 11 more than new closer Troy Percival has in his career.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "I think it's a great idea. Obviously the public doesn't like the current stadium really well." -- Philadelphia's Bill Giles, a member of the expansion committee that awarded the Rays franchise in 1995, on plans for a new waterfront stadium.
Roster Report
The Rays filled most of their holes before they even got to the winter meetings, having added RHP Matt Garza and SS Jason Bartlett in a blockbuster deal with Minnesota for OF Delmon Young, and signing RHP Troy Percival. They sought to improve their defense while bolstering their rotation and bullpen.
ARRIVALS: RHP Troy Percival (free agent from Cardinals), RHP Matt Garza (trade with Twins), SS Jason Bartlett (trade with Twins), OF Cliff Floyd (free agent from Cubs).
DEPARTURES: RHP Brian Stokes (acquired by Mets), OF Delmon Young (traded to Twins), INF Brendan Harris (traded to Twins), OF Elijah Dukes (traded to Nationals), INF Josh Wilson (claimed off waivers by Pirates).
BIGGEST NEEDS: The Rays are still looking for a left-handed hitting outfielder, and they are open to upgrading at catcher.
FREE AGENTS: C Raul Casanova, C Josh Paul, RHP Jay Witasick, INF/OF Greg Norton, RHP Shawn Camp.
ARBITRATION-ELIGIBLE: OF Jonny Gomes, LHP Scott Kazmir, 1B Carlos Pena, RHP Dan Wheeler.
The Rays are looking at the potential of three significant arbitration cases with Kazmir, who could up to the $3-4 million range; Pena, who could go up $5 million or more; and Wheeler, who seems likely to go up $1 million to around $3 million. Gomes is likely to get around $1 million.

Homicide spreads like infectious disease
Homicide moves through a city in a process similar to infectious disease, according to a new study that may give police a new tool in tracking and ultimately preventing murders. Using Newark, N.J., as a pilot case, a team of Michigan State University researchers led by April Zeoli successfully applied public health tracking methods to the city's 2,366 homicides between 1982 and 2008. They found the killings were not randomly located but instead followed a pattern, evolving from the city's center and moving southward and westward over time.
Like a flu bug that spreads to susceptible groups such as children and the elderly, homicide clusters in Newark -- often fueled by gangs and guns -- spread to areas consisting largely of poor and minority residents. Over time, the concentration of homicides effectively disappeared from one area and settled in another.
"By using the principles of infectious disease control, we may be able to predict the spread of homicide and reduce the incidence of this crime," said Zeoli, public health researcher in MSU's School of Criminal Justice.
The study is one of the first to use analytic software from the field of medical geography to track long-term homicide trends. Zeoli said the method can be done in real time which would allow police to identify emerging hotspots.
The researchers also identified areas of Newark that had no homicide clusters during the 26-year time frame of the study, despite being surrounded by deadly violence.
"If we could discover why some of those communities are resistant," Zeoli said, "we could work on increasing the resistance of our communities that are more susceptible to homicide."
Joining Zeoli on the study were criminal justice researchers Jesenia Pizarro and Christopher Melde and medical geographer Sue Grady.
The study is published in Justice Quarterly, a research journal.

Mac clone-maker Psystar on Thursday filed an amended complaint against Apple, arguing that Apple is misusing copyright by tying its OS X operating system to Mac computers.
Judge William Alsup gave Psystar the the green light last week to file an amended complaint in its long-running legal battle with Apple over running OS X on non-Apple hardware, removing the antitrust complaint and moving ahead with the copyright misuse case.
To prove its copyright misuse claim, Psystar refers to Apple's End User License Agreement, which states that users agree to install the Mac OS only on an Apple computer. The lawsuit claims this overextends the boundaries of the Mac OS copyright.
In the amended complaint, Psystar also quoted Apple Senior Vice President of Worldwide Product Marketing, Phil Schiller's, statements in 2005 that Apple wouldn't do anything to stop people from running Windows on a Mac, but it wouldn't allow the Mac OS to run on non-Apple hardware.
To prevent someone from running OS X on another system, Psystar alleges that Apple embeds code in the operating system to cause a kernel panic if non-Apple hardware is recognized.
Psystar originally sought to charge Apple under antitrust laws because it said Apple "possesses monopoly power in the Mac OS market." However, the antitrust argument didn't pass muster with Judge Alsup.
In dismissing the antitrust charges, the judge said "Psystar's allegations are internally contradictory."
Apple filed a copyright infringement suit against Psystar in July 2008, starting the back-and-forth legal battle that has lasted for almost eight months.
The trial is set to begin on November 9, 2009.
Apple has 20 days to respond to the amended complaint.

The Marathon gas station on KY 36 is perfectly positioned to draw visitors as cars turn off Interstate 75 to head to the Ark Encounter.
Not known as one of Grant County Oil's biggest moneymakers, the number of customers has grown since the life-size Noah's Ark opened last week in Williamstown.

Jacob Siedenberg, a 2011 graduate of Williamstown High School, will perform the lead role in Stage Right Musical Theatre Company's production of "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown."
The company's first-ever production opens July 13 at Main Street Gardens in Williamstown.

FRANKFORT– New laws approved during the Kentucky General Assembly's 2016 regular session go into effect on July 15.
Among the over 90 new laws taking effect this week is legislation to allow Kentucky's courts to permanently seal the criminal records of low-level felons.
Legislation to create a permanent fund for Kentucky public employee pensions will also be in place. And child daycare centers will be able to receive their own prescriptions for EpiPen rescue injectors to treat life-threatening allergic reactions of children in their care.

Are we leaving the arts out of journalism?
Like most journalists, I look to reports like the recently released Tow Center report on the changing nature of the field for guidance, for ways of thinking about what I do. But what I find is that what I do as a critic is increasingly marginalized or ignored by such studies.
In the thousands of words in the report from Tow, based at the Columbia School of Journalism and written by some of the finest minds in the field, there is a glaring void. There is no real consideration of cultural dialogue and criticism, perhaps the fastest shrinking segment of mainstream media today. Journalism worth doing is defined as investigative, watchdog journalism, the stories that somebody, somewhere doesn't want written. I would agree that this is the core of good journalism. »Read Full Blog Post(9)
Pink Banana Theatre wrestles with truth, Internet in 'Dark Play'
When we first meet Nick in Carlos Murillo's "Dark Play," now on stage at Pink Banana Theatre Company in a production that opened over the weekend, he's a blandly attractive, seemingly wholesome collegian — "pretty much indistinguishable," as he'll later tell us, "from any other college kid."
But there's more here than initially meets the eye, as we learn when the woman sharing Nick's dorm-room bed begins asking about the web of scars along his waistline. Does Nick tell Molly the truth about these now-healed wounds? Or should he do as he's always done and make "stuff" — Nick uses a different word — up? »Read Full Article(1)

1. Orb (Malibu Moon) – Tabasco Cat is the only horse
in the last 41 years to win the Preakness Stakes from post one and Orb
likes to make wide, sweeping moves. If he is a legit Triple Crown threat
the inside post will not bother him and Rosario continues to ride
great. I have always liked Shug's colt but he won't offer any value in
2. Goldencents (Into Mischief) – SA Derby winner
hated the Derby wet track and the pace scenario did not help his cause.
He is a quality speed horse but needs everything to go his way to
compete vs. these at this distance. Krigger might send him and play
catch me if you can.
3. Titletown Five (Tiznow) – He finished in front
of Orb in a Saratoga maiden race last summer. He has raw talent but is
best as a sprinter at this stage. Interesting that patient rider
Leparoux takes over. They are trying to get him to relax.
4. Departing (War Front) – Playing the part of Red
Bullet is Departing and taking over the role of Fusaichi Pegasus is Orb.
At least that is what trainer Al Stall Jr. is hoping. He is 4-for-5
lifetime and the LA Derby was a productive prep. He did not beat much in
the Illinois Derby but looked good doing it.
5. Mylute (Midnight Lute) – He is winless in seven
stakes outings but is usually in the hunt. Napravnik was the queen of
Maryland racing when she rode at Laurel/Pimlico and she really wants to
win the Preakness.
6. Oxbow (Awesome Again) – Lukas trainee was done in
by the quick Derby splits but hung in there to finish a fine 6th. His
main problem is that he pulled off wire jobs in both career wins but is
not quick enough to grab the early lead in the Preakness.
7. Will Take Charge (Unbridled's Song) – Smarty
Jones/Rebel winner finished a troubled 8th in the Derby. He is a bit
interesting if he finds clear sailing under Mike Smith but is not fast
enough and has yet to win beyond a mile and a sixteenth.
8. Govenor Charlie (Midnight Lute) – G3 Sunland
Derby hero is lightly raced and on the improve. He lacks seasoning and
has recovered from the minor hind foot issue that forced him to miss the
Derby. Look for him to make some noise later this year.
9. Itsmyluckyday (Lawyer Ron) – Eddie Plesa's colt
got the best of the draw based on his preferred outside stalk and pounce
style. The Florida Derby runner-up flopped in the Derby and may have
peaked in January. Orb beat him in his last pair.

Shotgun Junior is how she describes herself on social media. And we don't quite mind that, simply because she's pretty much like her father — an actor with a mind of her own
The actor is kicking his onscreen daredevilry up a notch by lifting a Mercedes Benz that weighs more than 1000 kg in an upcoming film.
The actor talks about the second instalment of Force.
John gushed about his on-screen love interest and her impressive moves when it comes to kicking butt.
The Kapil Sharma Show is breaking all records of complete entertainment. Bollyood diva, Sonakshi Sinha and silver screen heartthrob John Abraham were having an awesome time on the sets of The Kapil Sharma Show.
John Abraham requested MS Dhoni if he could attach the trailer of his upcoming film, 'Force 2' to the cricketer's biopic.
New Delhi, Actor John Abraham, who has appeared in films like 'Jism', 'No Smoking', 'Garam Masala' and 'Force', says he is not keen on starring in a biopic at the moment.
With an interesting mix of a nail-biting storyline, high-octane action sequences and exotic locales, director Abhinay Deo's 'Force 2' promises viewers a perfect blend of thrill and drama.
Freddy Daruwala on his co-star John Abraham and playing the baddie in action-thrillers.
John Abraham recently adopted a three-month old female pub
Actor John Abraham considers the small screen a platform which gives wider reach to films than the big screen itself.
John Abraham isn't just a muscle-bod and a beefcake who is all about looks and no substance. Apart from being keen on working out, he also is gung ho about sports like football.
Northeast United FC owner John Abraham says the opening ceremony of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2016 will inspire the youth from the region and give recognition to the people.
Popular Bollywood actor John Abraham has been roped in as Arunachal Pradesh's new brand ambassador for tourism.
John, who has been named the brand ambassador of Arunachal Pradesh Tourism, says he would like to shoot an entire film in the northeastern state.
John Abraham will be promoting the state as an adventure destination in the country.
'Force 2' will bring together John and actress Sonakshi Sinha for the first time.
Bollywood actor John Abraham says it is rather sad that the north east region has been 'alienated' from the rest of the country, with people having little knowledge about it.
John is of the opinion that the state has a lot to offer its tourist be it culture, heritage, adventure sports and music.
John Abraham is one of the very few actors who don't mince words just for the promotions of the film.
Veteran drummer Phil Rudd says he is open to join hard rock band AC/DC if singer Axl Rose leaves the group as frontman.
Actor-producer John Abraham has heaped praise on his 'Force 2' co-star Sonakshi Sinha by calling her the best action hero.
After doing franchise-starters like 'Dhoom' and 'Force', there is a buzz that John Abraham's latest film, 'Dishoom' will have a sequel, too.
New York, Aug 29, 2016 (AFP) -Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal get their US Open campaigns under way Monday in the shadow of Arthur Ashe Stadium's spectacular $150 million retractable roof and alongside rock music legend Phil Collins.

Breakfast dishes - We need HELP!!
Our breakfast program is going really well with many days having 30 children attending which is fabulous.
However, this has meant that we are desperate for some volunteers to help out – especially with the dishes.
If you could help out on one or more mornings each week from about 8,25 it would make the world of

Also, please remember that Breaky Club begins at 8.10 every morning, some children are coming in before 8 which is too early.

A special education assistant aids a teacher in a special education class, usually in an elementary, middle, or high school setting. Some classes deal with students who have mental disabilities, while others are children who need help in specific areas such as speech therapy or English as a second language. Sometimes this position involves assisting in a full-time special education classroom. Other times the position involves helping out students in classes where the students will attend for a short period of time in between other classes.Read More...
The assistant will help to direct behavior, especially when the teacher is administering lessons to a large group of students. When students need extra help comprehending what is being taught, the assistant may have to come up with other ways to make the lessons make sense to the student. Special education classes often aim to teach students basic skills such as math and reading, while paying close attention to the students' special needs. The students may have limited abilities in being able to assist themselves in basic needs and activities, so it is important to be able to help them while being a patient person.
Generally, this is a full-time job that occurs during normal school hours. A main goal of the job is helping students to gain independence and knowledge whenever possible. Most of the activities are done indoors, while some activities will require venturing into the outdoors on field trips.

U.S. import and export price indexes in April 2012
May 11, 2012
U.S. import prices declined 0.5 percent in April 2012, following a 1.5-percent increase in March. The April decrease was driven by lower fuel prices, which more than offset a small increase in nonfuel prices. The price index for overall U.S. exports rose 0.4 percent in April 2012 after a 0.8-percent increase in March.
Import prices rose 0.5 percent from April 2011 to April 2012. That was the smallest 12-month advance since the index last recorded a year-over-year decrease in October 2009. Export prices advanced 0.7 percent from April 2011 to April 2012, the smallest year-over-year increase since the index rose 0.4 percent from November 2008 to November 2009. The 12-month increase in export prices in April was led by higher nonagricultural prices, which more than offset declining agricultural prices over the past year.
The price index for imports from industrialized countries (which include Western Europe, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa) declined 1.1 percent from April 2011 to April 2012. Prices for imports from other countries rose 1.0 over the same period. Prices rose from April 2011 to April 2012 for imports from the European Union (1.6 percent), the Pacific Rim (0.7 percent), China (2.0 percent), and Japan (0.6 percent). Prices declined from April 2011 to April 2012 for imports from Canada (−5.6 percent), Latin America (−0.9 percent), and Mexico (−3.1 percent).
These data are from the International Price program. Import and export price data are subject to revision in each of the three months after original publication. For more information, see "U.S. Import and Export Price Indexes — April 2012" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-12-0894.

Cold. Bitter. Lonely. These are all words to describe how he felt. John was a kind man, was, as we all were, once. He knew he had to survive, and how, better than any man I'd met before. Perhaps it was his kindness though, that short sympathetic pause, which led him to his demise.
I was told it was Chernogorsk; others have reconciled numerous locations, but we'll say Chernogorsk for the sake of argument. John was walking along the coast, small drops of blood leaked from his backpack, or so I'm told.

Ultrasound, or ultrasonography, is another way doctors are able to take a look inside the body. Instead of X-rays, sound waves are bounced off the kidneys, the heart, or other places your doctor needs to check out. Most women who are going to have a baby will have an ultrasound. Ask your mother if she has an ultrasound picture of you before you were born. Aw, you were so cute!
