FORTUNE -- One year ago I recommended that you buy stock in publicly-traded private equity firms, like Apollo Global Management (apo) and The Carlyle Group (cg). My theory was that such issuers were being undervalued by analysts who obsessed over assets under management (i.e., fund management fees), while paying too little attention to underlying portfolio performance (i.e., investment profits).
Hope you listened, since such shares have since risen by an average of 65 percent.
That's a big jump, and I'm not so bold as to issue another editorial buy. But I would suggest you keep ignoring most of the bank analysts.
Last Thursday, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. (kkr) released first quarter earnings and held the obligatory conference call. Several of the analyst questions dealt with a new dividend policy, while one asked about the outlook for underlying portfolio companies. The majority, however, still related to assets under management.
Among those was the following from Michael Kim, an analyst with Sandler O'Neill:
"As you continue to build out your investment capabilities across the new strategies and geographies, is there an opportunity to maybe offer LPs sort of a multi-asset class fund that maybe has a broader mandate? Do you feel like there's demand for that type of strategy that's more flexible and might offer more of a shorter timeline relative to sort of a traditional PE fund?"
And this from Matthew Kelly of Morgan Stanley (ms):
"I was hoping you could give us an update on LPs and your cross-sell, because there's been a lot of change in additions, moving parts to the business, as you indicated. So I'm just wondering if you can tell us kind of how many LPs you have now, how many of them own multiple products and if there's any sort of subset they can't own multiple products, just based on what they can kind of invest in?"
In other words, how can you get more dollars from existing investors?
The notion of multi-asset class products is not new. Warburg Pincus, arguably, has been doing it for years with "private equity" funds that include everything from expansion-stage venture capital to large leveraged buyouts. And The Blackstone Group (bx) has raised $1.7 billion for a new platform that takes "a multi-asset class approach to investing in illiquid assets focused on timely opportunities that fall outside other Blackstone alternative fund strategies."
But, generally speaking, these are exceptions rather than the rule. Not because private equity firms don't want to raise more money from existing LPs, but because most LPs prefer that each of their fund commitments fit into a dedicated "bucket."
There's a "bucket" for early-stage venture capital, one for growth equity, one for mid-market buyouts, one for large-cap buyouts and so forth. This is particularly prevalent in the fund-of-funds world, but also exists at many university endowments and public pension plans.
In fact, many LPs would much prefer to invest in three different funds managed simultaneously by the same firm (each focused on a different asset class), than in a single fund that makes the same deals under a consolidated umbrella. It just works better for their models, and also helps enable secondary sale flexibility. Do KKR's analysts know any of this?
To be clear, I'm a bit reluctant to knock people for asking questions. Partially because it's what I do for a living, and also because that's the purpose of the quarterly earnings call. But when those paid to analyze publicly-traded private equity firms ask questions that reflect a lack of sophistication about the underlying subject matter... Well, I guess that's why so few of them had proper price targets last May.

The version number of f2py (2_3816, for instance), indicates which SVN commit changed the f2py package and has local usage only. python-f2py package could be retained only for backward compatibilty for users who are importing f2py2e package and for users who need Numeric and numarray support in f2py. Otherwise there is no need for it. Note that if debian is going to ship Numeric then it should also ship python-f2py.

Toyguru has hinted on several occasions that Mattel will consider re-releasing some Classics figures in 2016. With Mattel reviewing its plans for 2016 over the following weeks and months, now is the best time to give your input!
What figures that have already been released in Classics would you like Mattel to re-release either in its original form, or with some changes/improvements such as a newly sculpted head, upgrade parts, or fixes to known issues with the original (backwards shoulders, easily breaking parts, "black plastic", etc.)?

Basically, anybody from the first 2 years. But the main 2 from this batch would be Green Goddess (upgrade so it doesn't break apart so easily) and Teela (non bobblehead version).

King Grayskull the "SDCC" version. I say it quotes because I would like him released in those colours, brown cape, ect, but I would not expect it to be in the same box of course. Also keep the removable head and cape design. I dont quite remember but something was different in the way he was made compared to the rest of the line. So basically the new Grayskull (with the orb) but in the SDCC colours.
All of them.
Teela because I still need her, but only with minor fixes, not a 2.0.
Goddess because so many people need a non exploding crotch version, although mine is ok.
Mer-Man and Skeletor in their Filmation version.
MOTUC Wish List: FILMATION MER-MAN, Filmation Leech, Hunga the Harpy, Lady Slither, Crystoll, King Micah/Red Knight, Filmation Whiplash.
I'll go for none other than Battle Armour He-Man.
Try to reach inside of me, try to drain my energy
Let me show you just what I'm made of

NON. Unless they are variants (such as Filmation) then I'm not interested as I already bought them the first time around.
New want List:
Collector's Choice: Hunga the Harpy, Catra Cat Form, Twiggets, Kothos and Admiral Scurvy.
Filmation Club Grayskull: Webstor, Kobra Khan, Count Marzo, Ram Man, Leech, Grizzlor, Mantenna and Frosta.
Just rerelease all of the figures people had trouble getting as a whole and the ones that had production issues. Only keep them inside the same kind of packaging so our collection will be uniform.

Creepy and dark beautiful giants have risen on Iceland's frozen landscapes. These faceless figures seem like the stuff of nightmares, but take a closer look and you'll see they're actually made of a material we're all once familiar with: VHS tapes.
Artist Philip Ob Rey created the "V" HS Project, an installation/photography project made from discarded and tangled webs of VHS tapes. The haunting creatures were partly inspired as protest against plastic pollution and mass media.

If you're suspected of a crime, the details of the criminal process you face depend on where the crime occurred. Even so, the general procedure is similar in all states, including Indiana.
Getting Arrested
Police officers may only arrest you if they have good reason to believe you have committed a crime. There are exceptions, but in general they must either:
- Have an arrest warrant for you, or
- See you commit a crime
The arresting officer should tell you that you have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. These are called your Miranda rights.
After your arrest, you will go through the booking process, which involves being fingerprinted and photographed, and having your personal belongings confiscated. An officer will then take you to a holding cell.
Getting Bail
With a few exceptions, you have the right to bail. Many counties set standard bail amounts for minor crimes. You can usually pay these at the police station or county clerk's office.
For more serious crimes, a judge will set bail at your initial hearing, which must happen "promptly" In general, this means within 48 hours, although it can be longer on weekends and holidays.
If you are already on probation, the police may hold you for up to 15 days without bail while deciding whether to charge you with a probation violation.
Attending an Initial Hearing
In Indiana, the initial hearing is generally your first court appearance. In other states it is usually known as the arraignment. If there is no statutory amount of bail for your crime, the judge will set your bail or refuse bail.
Most state courts automatically enter a not guilty plea on your behalf, although you may choose to plead guilty. If you have not already hired an attorney, the court will ask if you intend to do so or if you need a public defender.
Striking a Deal/Plea Bargaining
Most criminal cases are resolved with plea agreements, not trials. In this deal with the prosecutor, you plead guilty in exchange for concessions such as a lesser sentence or dismissal of other charges. A judge must approve your plea agreement.
Formal Charges
In most Indiana criminal cases, the prosecutor evaluates the facts, decides what crimes they support, and files the charges in a document called an Information.
Although state law does not require using a grand jury even for felonies, the prosecutor may choose to convene one. The grand jury decides if the evidence supports bringing charges, called an Indictment.
Going to Trial and Getting Sentenced
If you do not make a plea deal, your case will go to trial. Felonies automatically go to a jury trial. To get a jury trial for a misdemeanor, you need to make a written request.
At trial, the prosecution and defense take turns making their cases. If the verdict is guilty, the judge sets your sentence based on state sentencing guidelines and any mitigating or aggravating factors.
Consult Legal Help
If you're facing criminal charges in Indiana, it's important to have the help of an experienced criminal lawyer. Assert your right to an attorney right away to protect your rights.

Good Food. Good Business.
At Winterwoods Tea Company we're passionate about creating delicious, gourmet tea blends using the finest local and organic ingredients. We begin by sourcing our ingredients from small, sustainable farms and companies who support our values and we hand-mix all of our original tea blends in the heart of the Pacific Northwest and Spokane's farm country, on beautiful GreenBluff.
We love creating teas based on what we can get or forage in our region. From peppermint to peaches and huckleberries, if we can buy it, grow it or pick it local for our teas – we do!
The result? The freshest herbs and spices that go from farm to tea cup. Straight up all natural tea full of artisan goodness.
Supporting Local Pacific Northwest Farmers
We're passionate about supporting local agriculture and farmers in the Pacific Northwest and our organic farmers and wild harvesters supply the freshest, highest quality herbs and fruit, creating a naturally delicious and superior cup of tea.
Building Community One Cup At A Time
We believe in building community through tea. We love bringing people together through tea culture. Whether that means supplying tea for a local ice cream shop to create a delicious earl grey ice cream flavor (hello Brain Freeze Creamery!), engaging Spokanites through samplings at local Farmers Markets (check out the popular new Kendall Yards Night Market), or keeping local coffee shops well supplied so they can keep making their popular London Fog steamers with our Inland Grey tea (have you tried this at Atticus yet? So good.), we seek to engage and connect with our community one cup of tea at a time.
Keeping it Real
We believe that tea should be healing and nourishing and that's why you'll never find synthetic ingredients, preservatives, artificial flavors or artificial colors, refined sugars, sweeteners or other additives in our teas. Our tea blends contain only organic herbs, spices, tea leaves and sometimes pure extracts.
How it All Began
As a former publicist, I (Tirza) was used to creating brand recognition for major companies across the nation and especially loved helping small, artistic businesses thrive through targeted public relations campaigns. But I found myself wanting to be them (my clients) and work with my hands in a creative, inspired way like so many of them did. Additionally, my passion for natural health and the healing power of herbs naturally combined with my love for living intentionally and savoring food (and life) and my knack for business. Things serendipitously fell into place and a business was born.
I love nothing more than to use my creative talents together with my business oriented brain to carefully research and develop beautiful new tea blends that are nourishing for the body and that take advantage of the bounty of the Pacific Northwest. Today, it is a family affair and you'll often seen my husband Shane running the market booths or my daughters serving up tea samples at art festivals around the Northwest. We are also thankful for our seasonal helpers who help us fill wholesale orders and package our tea.
Currently we have 15 original blends using local ingredients whenever possible including:
• Inland Grey • Northern Twilight • GreenBluff Green • Centennial Chai • Homestead Peach • Down River Harvest • Farmers Market Mint • Pacific Coast Lavender • Northwest Berry • Trailhead Huckleberry • High Desert Sunrise • Old Town Licorice • Mountain Mama • Rose City Chocolate • Harvest Apple
In 2016 we will be pursuing our organic certification, working with a natural foods distributor and attending Pacific Northwest gift and retail trade shows to increase wholesale sales and further the brand. We'll continue to engage with our fans directly through local farmers markets and events throughout the area.
If You Build It They Will Come
We launched Winterwoods Tea Company at an art festival event last August and since then the reception and sales of our artisan blends has been astounding and continues to skyrocket. Our sales are projected to more than quadruple this year and we've added a dozen wholesale accounts on top of selling at local farmers markets, art festivals and various events arounds town. We often sell out of our most popular blends and are working hard to keep up with consumer demand.
Local hot spots like Atticus, Indaba Coffee, Brain Freeze Creamery and Main Market Co-op and taking notice and are wholesale partners of Winterwoods Tea Company. We also will soon be expanding into other health food stores throughout the region, are in negotiations with a couple major grocers and are working with a natural foods broker. Additionally we anticipate expanding our retail gift accounts in 2016. We've been featured on KYLY Saturday Morning News, on AM 790 KJRB Business Talk Radio and we were featured in a two-page spread in The Inlander in July 2015.
And this is all unsolicited attention. These companies sought us out because they've tried our tea and loved it, have caught our vision and see us filling a niche that is needed here in the Inland Northwest.
What's Next
The wholesale and direct sale through markets demand for our tea is huge and we are at a cross roads. In order to meet the demand we need to take our facilities to the next level so we can continue making awesome, organic local tea blends.
Additionally, we plan to expand into offering ready-to-drink gourmet iced tea drinks at farmers markets, art festivals and events around the Inland Northwest. We cannot adequately prepare ready to drink tea or meet the demand for packaged tea without our own licensed kitchen.
We need your help.
We simply cannot keep up with the demand using our current methods and the incredible opportunities that keep coming our way using a rented kitchen. We have been renting the GreenBluff Grange kitchen a couple times a month to make a few big batches of tea but this is time consuming and not an ideal set-up. We have had to lug scales, commercial bag sealers, hundreds of pounds of ingredients and other equipment to the kitchen each time we made tea.
In order to make more tea (still in small batches just more often) we need to upgrade to a larger scale that measures and fills bags and a floor sealer stand. These are not items that can be lugged to a commercial kitchen. They are stationary. We need a dedicated space where we can make our tea and have commercial grade equipment that allows us to produce a higher quantity and also a high quality in terms of packaging capabilities.
To date we've financed our business 100% ourselves and without debt. We wanted to keep it simple, and let the business grow organically (no pun intended!). But to take the next step and grow this vision is a big financial commitment, and we really need your help.
What We Need
We are seeking to fund the purchase of necessary equipment and the completion of our own licensed kitchen. We have a space built for the kitchen and it has been drywalled and wired but needs to have a contractor bring it up to code for the Washington Department of Agriculture food inspector and the health department. This includes finishing flooring, walls, doors, installing sinks, counter tops, etc.
As a tiny, but growing, business, Winterwoods Tea Company was able to get things rolling on building this commercial kitchen but the cost for equipment requires some outside help. This kickstarter will fund the equipment purchases necessary to complete a commercial kitchen. This includes exciting things like:
- Work counters and shelving
- Sinks & faucets
- An oven for toasting our chai ingredients
- Refrigerator for our iced tea blends
- A commercial sealing machine
- A commercial fill and weigh scale
- A teabag sealing machine
Extra BONUS!!!
First Supporters – SOLD OUT
We will be awarding the first 25 Kickstarter supporters who purchase rewards a beautiful sample sized glass jar with a sample of one of our blends!
It Gets Even Better
Beyond just continuing and building upon our own success with Winterwoods Tea Company, we are passionate about helping other small businesses in the Spokane area start up and thrive. There is a lack of affordable, good quality commercial kitchens to rent in the Spokane area. We plan to make our kitchen available to other small start-ups that need a place to make their food products. We seek to create an "incubator" type environment that will allow for collaboration, encouragement and mentorship for emerging businesses here in the Inland Northwest. We love seeing small businesses thrive and want to be a part of making Spokane a place that helps develop and support local business.
For You
Have you caught our vision? Do you sense that we are onto something? Do you believe in our business? Do you love tea or know someone who does? We need you!
We started this Kickstarter campaign to raise the capitol needed for the purchase of equipment and completion of a commercial kitchen that will help us keep up with our demand and allow us to create a better facility for making our tea.
In addition to all of the awesome rewards detailed at right you'll get that warm, fuzzy feeling you'll get knowing that YOU helped give a small, local business the boost it needed to go to the next level plus you'll be supporting the local small farmers who supply our ingredients.
What do you think? Have we inspired you? Would you like to partner with us?
Please consider supporting local business and help us meet the demand for organic tea blends using Pacific Northwest ingredients. Whether you can support us with $100 or just $5 please consider joining our team. Every little bit helps!

In today's day and age, an eight-seater SUV that earns more than 20 mpg is something of an anomaly. For those who need a larger vehicle that can take the kids to school during the week and the boat to the marina on the weekend, the 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid gets the job done in a uniquely eco-conscious fashion. Learn what's new on the 2011 Tahoe Hybrid and review specs, photos and mpgs.
What's New - 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid
Since its introduction in 2008, the Tahoe Hybrid hasn't changed all that much. This tradition lives on in the 2011 model. Cosmetically, the biggest change is the introduction of a Mocha Steel Metallic exterior color option. New chrome wheels are also now available. Other revisions include an updated trailer brake controller, new 2nd-row head restraints and Gen 9.0 OnStar system that offers improved voice recognition.
Given the minor changes, shoppers on a budget may want to consider shopping for a slightly used 2010 Chevy Tahoe Hybrid.
2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid Styling
The Tahoe is a classically styled SUV that boasts a boxy exterior and spacious, cavernous interior. The hybrid model boasts a number of unique styling cues that are designed to maximize fuel efficiency. The use of aluminum instead of steel for such parts as the hood, bumper and rear liftgate helps reduce vehicle weight. A larger air intake helps improve oxygen flow and flared running boards boost the vehicle's aerodynamics.
Inside, the Tahoe Hybrid pampers with luxury-level amenities such as tri-zone automatic climate control, premium nine-speaker stereo and leather seats. Seating throughout is comfortable and ample. Maximum cargo capacity comes in at a whopping 109 cubic feet.

2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid Performance
The Chevy Tahoe Hybrid comes with a single powerhouse option - a 6.0-liter V-8 that combines with two electric motors to deliver 332 horsepower and 367 lb-ft. of torque. This drivetrain is enough to give the Tahoe good all-around road manners. However, there is a notable drop in the hybrid's performance at slow speeds when compared to the traditional Tahoe.
EPA estimates suggest fuel efficiency of 21 mpg in the city and 22 mpg on the highway (a 25-percent improvement over all-gas models). These excellent figures are partially attained thanks to a cylinder deactivation system that cuts off four of the eight cylinders during low-demand driving situations.
Four-wheel drive models achieve nearly identical fuel ratings. Maximum towing capacity is 6,200 lbs. While this isn't quite as much hauling potential as the standard Tahoe, you'll be hard-pressed to find a hybrid that matches this figure.
Review full 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid specifications.
2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid Safety
Standard safety equipment for the Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid includes six airbags, four-wheel antilock brakes, stability control, traction control, rearview camera and OnStar. The federal government has yet to perform crash tests on the 2011 Tahoe. However, the nearly identical 2010 model earned a best-possible five-star rating in frontal- and side-impact crash tests.
2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid Prices
Starting at $50,720, the 2011 Chevy Tahoe Hybrid is a bit on the expensive side. However, for those who refuse to compromise vehicle size for fuel efficiency, the Tahoe may make sense. The vehicle comes in a sole trim level. However, the ample standard features will hardly leave shoppers wanting more. Remote engine start, power front seats, removable third-row seat, fuel efficiency performance gauge, Bluetooth and power-adjustable pedals are just a few of the available standard features. Stand-alone optional equipment includes a sunroof and DVD entertainment system.

The top stocks & shares ISA for 2011
This type of ISA offers a good return on your cash, tax-free!
When many of us think about how to get our savings stack built up, we turn first to ISAs. That's understandable. After all, ISAs are tax-free – the interest you earn on your money is completely beyond the clutches of the taxman, something that appeals to all of us!
However, we don't always consider that there are two different types of ISA. And by ignoring Index Trackers, we're missing out on more tax-free savings.
The rules
With ISAs, you're allowed to save up to £10,200 each tax year, of which a maximum of £5,100 can be saved in a Cash ISA.
Many savers are content to stick to the cash limits. However, by doing so they miss out on their full allocation of tax-free savings - in fact, unlike with Cash ISAs, you can use all of your annual £10,200 ISA limit with stocks and shares ISAs!
How it works
So what is an Index Tracker ISA?
An Index Tracker replicates (in other words, tracks) the performance of a certain index. It does this by investing your money into the shares of all of the companies quoted on that index. So if you put your savings into a FTSE 100 Tracker for example, your money will be used to invest in shares in each of the top 100 companies in the UK.
Inflation is the enemy when it comes to your savings because it attacks real returns, and reduces the purchasing power of your cash.
So if the FTSE index has a bad day, and its value falls by 5%, so does the value of your savings. But if it has a good day, and rises by 5%, your investment will do the same (though there will be a deduction for fund charges).
The pros
There are a number of big selling points to Index Trackers.
Index Trackers offer those people who fancy trying their hand at a little investing the chance to do so on a very affordable basis. For example, the Legal & General UK 100 Index-Tracking ISA only requires a minimum monthly investment of £50, with no initial charge. So if you have a spare few quid every month, these funds offer you the chance to try your hand at investing, without having to commit a small fortune towards it.
However, make sure you check out the management charge – some funds charge as much as 1%. Given the fund itself enjoys no actual management, that's an awful lot!
One of the things that puts many people off investing is that it all seems a bit complex. No such worries with Index Trackers. If the index goes up, so does the value of your investment, if the index goes down, likewise.
Plus, you don't need to spend your time trawling through the investment pages of the broadsheets, trying to work out which sector to invest in – everything is done for you.
Index Tracker funds often boast an even better return than actively managed funds. The reasoning is quite simple – managed funds rely on fund managers, who are only human, and so are liable to making poor decisions in terms of which businesses to invest in.
The cons
However, there are also a number of potential downsides that you should be aware of before you rush off to open an account.
Some critics of tracker funds think that the passive nature of a tracker fund exposes your money. For example, financial firms make up a big proportion of the FTSE 100. Should the financial markets go through (another) period of difficulty, the fund is then exposed to this. With a managed fund, the fund manager would move your money out of this sector and into other sectors which were not going through such problems, protecting your cash. That doesn't happen with Index Trackers.
Exchange rates
It's not just those firms that are listed on the UK Stock Exchange that you can invest in – there's a wide variety of funds tracking the performance of US, European and Pacific indices, among others. However, while this can be very tempting (it sounds so much more exotic!) remember that when you put your money into such funds, you have to consider currency fluctuations as well as the performance of the index itself!
Tracking error
No tracker exactly mirrors the performance of the relevant index, due to the different tracking strategies the various funds employ. However, you can work out how close it will get by checking out the fund's tracking error figure. Obviously, the lower the figure, the better! So make sure you do your research on this before you sign up with an Index Tracker, as the performance can vary.

A frantic exchange to protect Sansom's $25M
One of the first and most eye-catching revelations about House Speaker Ray Sansom's relationship with his new employer, Northwest Florida State College, was a stroke of budget wizardry that turned a $1-million appropriation this year into $25.5-million. The money is going to a new/renovated student services building that will include a bookstore and cafe.
But college officials were sure worried it might not pass the smell test. Documents obtained by the Times/Herald reveal that officials worked with Sansom and a top staffer, Mike Hansen, to make sure the money was spared from a veto by Gov. Charlie Crist. Here's how it went down on May 5:
1:07 p.m.: A college official e-mails President Bob Richburg to say he got a call from another official wondering who is working to protect the appropriation. "I told him I had been sending emails to a couple of different people but that I thought Ray Sansom was talking directly with the governor," writes Gary Yancey, VP for administrative services.
2:45 p.m.: Richburg forwards the message to Sansom. "This item is still too important for me to decide not to pass on to you," Richburg writes. "Last year, Valencia took a veto on a major building that they had been assured was protected by the governor."
3:11 p.m.: Sansom forwards message to the top budget staffer, Mike Hansen (now Sansom's chief of staff). "Please read."
4:25 p.m.: Hansen replies, "Speaker D: I have talked with Jerry (McDaniel, Crist's budget chief) about this and am expecting no problem, but I will continue to make inquires as we get closer to the time. You might want to mention your interest in this to the Governor when he comes over to sign the State College Bill."
We've already reported that Sansom's $110,000 job was not advertised. Now it looks like the college even eased the rules a bit on the qualifications. The job description says a doctorate degree is preferred but Sansom only has a master's in education.
The Palm Beach Post this evening added an interesting nugget to the controversy, noting that Sansom's job application was faxed from the speaker's office. Sansom's spokeswoman, Jill Chamberlin, told the newspaper that it was " not appropriate" but that a staffer made an "innocent mistake."

Saab's Alcokey concept was created in 2004 and was submitted to wide-ranging tests in Sweden, funded partly by the National Swedish Road Administration. It was expected to be released as an optional extra costing about $500 and available in most Saab models within two years in Europe.
However, Saab Australia senior product planner Derek Tsao said the program was put on hold. "The official word is that the Alcokey is on hold as we finalise the re-structure of the new Saab, then it is planned to be introduced into the next generation of vehicles," he said. He said Saab did not clarify the timeframe.
Meanwhile, Toyota has produced a similar key that prevents drink drivers from starting their car and say it will be available in Australia in a couple of years. The Saab and Toyota devices require the driver blow into the key fob device and, if it detects an illegal alcohol reading, it locks the ignition. The Saab key will not mobilise again until a suitable breath sample is supplied, but does not prevent someone else in the car blowing for the driver.
Toyota has solved this problem by including a digital camera in the hand-held breathalyser. It photographs the driver's face to prevent a false reading from someone other than the driver.
Toyota is testing the device with its wholly owned truck subsidiary, Hino Motors. The breath-alcohol ignition-interlock system is designed to help companies and organisations manage their fleet-vehicle operations. It will be installed on selected trucks and other vehicles of Japanese transport companies and tested over the next three months.
The tests will verify system functionality, particularly ease-of-use in real-world situations. While other alcohol-detecting devices exist, they are fitted to the dashboard or door locks, not the ignition key.

Where we live is opposite a major hospital, next to an important police station, and off two major arterial roads – Ring Road and Lala Lajpat Rai Marg as they intersect at the four level Moolchand crossing. Traffic loads are extremely heavy throughout the day and for much of the night too. Quite a bit of slip-road traffic nudges itself into the already crowded and congested lanes of Defence Colony, made worse by rampant commercialisation as well as heavy re-construction work.
At times, during the morning and evening peak hours, it can take me twenty minutes or more to simply enter or exit Defence Colony. Going to what was a neighbourhood market is almost impossible in the evening. And the main inner road, paralel to the storm-water drain which has now become a dirty nullah carting the city's waste, industrial and domestic all mixed, into the river, untreated, can not be used as it is totally dug up on our side of the colony.
In the midst of all this, at around 2pm this afternoon, when the mid-day school traffic reaches another peak as strong as the normal morning/evening peaks, a group of bank robbers lying in wait in another car reportedly managed to intercept a bank cash van in one of the most crowded parts of Defence Colony's "D" Block, a few hundred metres from where we live, and escape with the attacked vehicle after injuring the guard in a shootout, as well as approximately 5-6 crores in cash.
In front of a group of shops and offices, next to a fuel filling station, an area littered with not just traffic and cars parked all over the place, but an average of 3-4 guards per building. Surely many of these buildings also have CCTV covering the street. Oh yes, the guards – detailed mostly in protecting that strategic piece of turf, the parking slot in front of their building.
Not only did the bandits manage to drive through these crowded back-lanes, but they then also took a fairly slow speed "U" turn, and went up the DefCol/Jungpura flyover to then drive past the extremely high security SCOPE complex, and then disappear – vehicle re-appears then after some time in the Hauz Rani area.
Fine, bank van robberies happen, all the time. If a proper armoured vehicle breaks down, then it has been known, ordinary taxi cabs are used – as in this case. And money in relatively unsecured trunks being taken for either stuffing ATMs or delivery at cash chests, is also not so rare. Life bumbles along, though one wishes cash management would evolve to global standards in India, soon.
What is exceptional here is that all this happened in what is or was otherwise known as a posh residential colony which has gone commercial in many parts. Other than banks, there are other commercial properties around, which probably carry inventories of various sorts far exceeding the 5 crores of rupees looted this time around.
Or, also at risk, our lives. Values of properties have gone up, we get unsolicited offers, and very soon we shall be looking at getting forced out – such is the nature of real estate. If not because of the sheer risk, then because somebody will make us an offer we can not refuse.
How did this happen? Do we not deserve to live in peace, too?
We need to re-think the mixed land use status that so many residential areas in Delhi have acquired lately. To put this in perspective, till about 2 decades ago, we were not permitted to even install telex machines in our homes, and banks operating out of residential houses were made to re-locate to commercial areas.
Today, out of the 70 houses in the row in which I live, almost 50 of them have gone commercial in some way or the other. At any given time, I have no idea of who is parked on the front or back-lane near my home, and what they are doing there. One of the larger offices right next to my home is associated with the private bank which has been named in this case, and some of us had to take it up with the fine lady in charge in Mumbai, such had become and still is the level of nuisance they created.
For just the kind of episode we've seen in Defence Less Colony earlier today, shouldn't the commercial establishments coming up in mixed use areas have a larger responsibility, to those of us living there? Today it is cash. Tomorow it is our lives.
Siren call – oh yes, all afternoon long, after the crooks have bolted, we've had the law all over the place like never before, doing what they do best. Stand on the street, and talking to them, we know that the police will be everybody's whipping boy, but is it their fault – the police did not permit this rampant commercialisation, especially banks, in our not so long ago peaceful colony.
We hope the authorities see sense, and move their banks and ATMs and other offices to proper commercial areas. Soon. Or take responsibility for our lives. There is no solace in hearing sirens after the act.

Until the Married Women's' Property Act of 1882, the property of a single woman passed automatically into her husband's hands when she got married. To protect their property and, perhaps, to secure some independence, women often transferred their property to Trustees, who would then legally own it, but use it to the benefit of the wife (and her children) rather than her husband. These legal documents are normally refered to as "Marriage Settlements."
Denny Lowe of Canada adds this note for researchers: Colin R Chapman, in "Marriage Laws, Rites, Records & Customs" states (on page 65) 'Marriage settlements in England, Wales and Scotland were personal documents and so, only by chance, are likely to have found their way into county or similar record offices.'.
Adrian hedgecoy advises:
"Marriage Settlements are still being created today, usually by wealthy families to ensure that specific assets, such as land and buildings are retained within the ownership of family. Other assets, such as furniture, ornaments, jewellery, crops and debts could also be covered. Such agreements would be drawn up by family solicitors, or for the mega-rich financial advisors and their lawyers. Settlements would also be created as and when a couple had additions to the family. Settlements were once considered to be a very tax efficient method of transferring a families wealth. A pre-nuptial agreement could be said to be a marriage settlement. It is now recommended that all today's couples sign such an agreement when they marry. It helps sort out the mess and anquish after the purple haze has disappeared!
Ann Widdowson found this Marriage Settlement in the Lincolnshire Archives using the "Persons Index":
Mary FISH expects a Bond from Charles CAULTON to leave her half his fortune in case she survives him and remains his widow... to his children if he leaves any but in case... if the said Charles CAULTON should survive her viz Mary FISH and have children by a second, third or fourth wife that still the children that she has shall be esteemed his eldest ......or portions to be more than ye younger children bourn of his other wives.... Or those other wives bring a better fortune than Mrs Mary FISH.
Included was a pre marital Inventory of Charles CAULTON and valuation of his wealth and a declaration that he had no debts. (Note the `Mrs` is short for mistress. She was the sister of Thomas FISH of Little Bytham, Clerk.)
The role of a Coroner was to be informed of all sudden deaths and cases where the deceased had not been seen by a doctor within two weeks of death. A Coroner's Inquest is the investigation into a death. The law requires such an inquest under various circumstances and the circumstances have changed over time. The Coroner's Report is the result or findings of the investigation. There was a post-mortem exam (not necessarily an autopsy as we think of it) and if it was clearly natural causes (e.g heart attack with history of heart condition) he would issue a death certificate, but in all other cases he would hold an inquest (with or without a jury). In many cases the police would be involved at the outset, but the Coroner could order a police investigation himself. The inquest would record one of the following verdicts: natural causes: accidental death: misadventure: death caused by person or persons unknown. Often the names of witnesses and some family members are included. If you are lucky, the relationships will also be spelled out in the report. You will often hear the term "Inquest" used to mean the actual report, rather than the process. Accidents were a very common occurrence in the days of our ancestors. There should be a record of the inquest at the Archives, but many were not saved as it was not required under the law until 1752. Some Coroners' findings were luridly reported in the local newspapers.
Until 1926 all inquests were held before a jury. The main surviving record is usually the individual inquest or inquisition, giving the verdict, name, date, time, cause and place of death with the signatures of the jurors. In most cases the supporting evidence doesn't survive. From 1752 to 1860, coroners were required to file their inquests at the Quarter Sessions, and so they are generally preserved among the records of Quarter Sessions, mainly at local record offices. There is a 75-year privacy rule limiting access to direct relatives and certain public officials.
The Lincolnshire Family History Society (LFHS) has indexes to Coroner's Reports published on microfiche for the years 1753 to 1836 from various sources. To purchase these indexes, go to our Societies Pop-up page, and click on the Family History Bookstore icon.
Anne Cole reports the following (paraphrased): The LFHS is working on transcribing summaries of actual reports. Brief details of inquests for an area roughly covering the Caistor Registration District as it was up to 1891 for the years 1837 to 1866 are transcribed, but not yet completely checked. The same for Lindsey (from the Quarter Sessions) from 1836 to 1846, which are also transcribed and mostly checked. Please note that from 1839 these only say who, when and where. The newspapers are being searched for additional information. Details from Inquest Reports for the Spalding area that include witnesses' papers etc. (found behind a blocked up fireplace in a Solicitor's office) for the years 1809 to the 1870s are currently being transcribed but none are yet checked. All these will eventually have relevant newspaper reports added to them; all will eventually be published; some will appear on the Pay Per View site before they are published in microfiche format.
There are also Inquest Reports similar to those for the Spalding area mentioned above for the Stamford/Rutland area (these were found in a skip! [trash bin for Americans]). They don't go as far as the 1930s. These are at Lincolnshire Archives, but so far nothing has been done with them. I believe they are available to researchers at Lincoln, but may be wrong.
Many of the inquests took place in Inns and public houses and the names of these have also been indexed on the fiche. The publican or innkeeper's name will often be found in the relevant inquest.
Other than these the newspapers are your only source. The Stamford Mercury is on microfilm and should therefore be available through a Mormon Library. The Lincolnshire Chronicle is also on microfiche. There were other local papers around by 1937. These will not be available at Lincoln, but Stamford Library may have them.
Specific resources include:
The Coroner is one of the oldest offices under the Crown and he/she is also responsible for deciding the ownership of any treasure. (Thank you, Peter Barnes)

By Willow Lawson, published on March 1, 2005 - last reviewed on June 9, 2016
One might say that Maggie Robbins' novel Suzy Zeus Gets Organized is pure poetry. The story of a promiscuous, manic-depressive bombshell is smart and witty. It is also written in stanzas of six perfectly rhyming lines. Robbins, an art therapist and collage artist, wrote the semi-autobiographical poems over a period of 20 years, during which she conquered her own bipolar depression.
Who is Suzy?
I first wrote about her in college for a poetry reading. I wanted something different from what anyone else might have written. I would read first, then see who wanted to follow me after I talked about a girl breaking windows and her boyfriend peeing out of a window.
Do people who have been mentally ill make better therapists?
No, but you have more background. If you're trying to describe what mania is like and a therapist just says, "Yes, dear, here's your lithium, please take it," it's so alienating.
Do your patients provide material?
Not at all. I started private practice after I finished the book. I worry that if they read the book they might think it's them, but it's really not. It's only me.
Barbie surfaces in the book and in your artwork.
I actually have a little career related to Barbie. It started after I was walking in Queens and overheard someone say, "That girl has a real Barbie fetish." I had just seen African fetishes at the Met. They are wooden animal forms decorated with bits of metal or buttons. I had this image of Barbie. So I got a Barbie, found nails and pins, and filled her up. She looked vanquished. That piece of art got picked up by the author of Forever Barbie. Mattel hated it.

I've just picked this up for £29.99 from Argos Clearing House. It's an absolute bargain. Sound quality is great and despite what some other users have said you can save FM presets (up to 18). The USB input only supports MP3/WAV and isn't really designed for IPods - you need a different model for that. However, you can connect your IPod easily to the rear AUX input (which is what I have done by running a short 3.5mm jack wire into the glove compartment). So now I can play MP3 CDs (more albums than I used to be able to get in my old CD changer), run my IPod using the IPod controls (much easier than the radio) and enjoy greatly enhanced sound quality. A doddle to fit also in my old Alfa Romeo.
I have had the head unit since January cost me around £75 from Argos although similar and like for like products can be found in Halfords or upland outlets. The overall quality of the head unit is real good however it does have a few drawbacks. The first drawback is that it's pretty tricky to fit into a car if you not familiar with the installation. The idea of this head unit is to link or adapt your iPod/mp3 through the usb port in the front. This is where a problem unfolds it allowed me to play my iPod for a while but it wouldn't allow me to change the songs from the iPod I had to flick through on the "random". I then had the problem of it not recognising the iPod after a week or so, having transferred my songs to a usb stick everything is working well although I can't select a specific song without having to go through my whole playlist to look for it. If listening to the radio you should expect a task as it doesn't hold or save any FM radio stations meaning you have to flick through for the station of your choice. However the sound quality does make up for these setbacks.
Well from what i've heard i've been lucky with my ipod, i can connect it to the usb port and it plays all audio files but it functions as a normal usb key...have to control music from the cd player.
Controlling music from the usb on the cd player itself is actually very inconvenient...not only is it often hard to find the right folder but somehow the folders do no seem to have any order...not ordered alphabetically or anything, plus, once you find what you think is the right folder (i sort folders by artist) it contains just a whole bunch of random songs which should be in other folders.
I have also found that it does not play all audio files, even though the format is exactly the same (vlc audio file mp3).
I thought it was would be a simpler piece of equipment but really not such an improvement from my old cd player.
Sounds great, but....bought to replace standard fitment Blaupunkt in my Fiat Doblo, problems soon mounted. As it was bought to run my iPod through the front mounted USB, first problem was the USB didn't work! No iPod was recognised, nor a USB stick with SD card. Next up, the unit fails to remember any settings inputed. Needs switching on each time car is started, and everytime CD goes back to track one...will not "hold" any FM radio presets. Guess what, it's going back....

What's being said
I find it nearly impossible to fathom why these employers believe they have the right to stuff their religious beliefs down the throats of their employees. That isn't religious freedom, it's oppression. Take a look at Chalmers v. Tulon Company, 101 F.3d 1012; 1996 U.S. App. LEXIS 31089 (4th Cir. 1996), in which the court agreed with Judge Richard Williams, that employees have the right to be FREE from the imposition of the religious beliefs of supervisors and co-workers in the workplace.
If corporations are deemed "persons" for the purposes of interpretation and applicability, the Citizens United ruling ought to find traction in the arguments advanced by the Mennonite business entity. Judge Goldberg seems to have difficulty in apportioning certain rights to free speech, and restricted rights to freedom of religion both of which find sanctity in the First Amendment. When the learned judge juxtaposed purpose with precedent, we need to get on a constitutional diet!

The 'A Study in Green' series turns to a late-season acquisition this week, someone Celtics fans admired for his hustle and effort to put his body on the line for his team; Shavlik Randolph (aka #ShavKill).
The Good
After dominating as the leading scorer for the entire Chinese Basketball Association for the 2012/13 season, the Celtics signed Randolph to two 10-day contracts in February and March. Many didn't know what the man could bring to the table, but once he found himself a spot in the rotation he was instantly noticed.
Although he only appeared in 16 games across the NBA season, Randolph proved himself to be an excellent rebounder. Sloan Piva of Yahoo! Sports noted if Randolph's games had qualified for statistical leads, he would have been rated as a top 10 rebounder per possession in the NBA.
this guy grabs over 20 percent of all missed shots while he's on the floor
The all-out effort wasn't just for rebounding either, stepping up for charges and making rotations on the defensive end. Doc Rivers noted Shavlik was leading with his head, due to blood noses and countless falls to the floor. Randolph illustrated the kind of energy big man the Celtics had been in desperate need of since rookie Jared Sullinger had gone down with a season-ending back injury in February.
During his sixth NBA season, Shavlik posted a career high 16 points against the Cavaliers in April, and a career-equalling 13 rebounds against the Hawks at the end of March.
The Bad
For such a low-cost and low-risk player, Randolph proved to be a very nice addition for the last month of the regular season, with no real negatives to speak of. However, due to Doc Rivers' desire to cut his Playoff rotation to only 7 or 8 players, Randolph barely got a look at the court for the Celtics' short 6 game post-season run, posting a total 3 minutes of playing time.
The Verdict
While Randolph was only around the Celtics for the latter part of the season, he proved to be an energy guy with a great basketball IQ over that period. With the Celtics declining to pick up his option on the 1st of August for the 2013/14 season, I personally believe Shavlik will be missed. He has the potential to become a regular rotational big man, hustling for those boards and putting his body on the line for his team. If the Celtics don't make roster space and invite Shavlik to training camp, I hope to see him do well with another team in the NBA.
Let us know what you thought of Shavlik's short season by dropping a comment below!

Matthew was written by the Apostle Matthew as an account of the life of Jesus. Here you will find great resources regarding the Gospel of Matthew. You can also find more information on The Holy Bible.
Resource Guide
Matthew Bible Study
Commentaries on Matthew
Who wrote the Book of Matthew?
The Apostle Matthew wrote The Book of Matthew as his account of the Life of Jesus Christ.
Although the first Gospel is anonymous, the early church fathers were unanimous in holding that Matthew, one of the 12 apostles, was its author. However, the results of modern critical studies—in particular those that stress Matthew's alleged dependence on Mark for a substantial part of his Gospel—have caused some Biblical scholars to abandon saying Matthew wrote the book. Why, they ask, would Matthew, an eyewitness to the events of our Lord's life, depend so heavily on Mark's account? The best answer seems to be that he agreed with it and wanted to show that the apostolic testimony to Christ was not divided. Matthew, whose name means "gift of the Lord", was a tax collector who left his work to follow Jesus (9:9–13). In Mark and Luke he is called by his other name, Levi.
Date and Place of Writing
Some have argued on the basis of its Jewish characteristics that Matthew's Gospel was written in the early church period, possibly the early part of a.d. 50, when the church was largely Jewish and the gospel was preached to Jews only (Ac 11:19). However, those who have concluded that both Matthew and Luke drew extensively from Mark's Gospel date it later—after the Gospel of Mark had been in circulation for a period of time. See essay and chart, p. 1943. Accordingly, some feel that Matthew would have been written in the late 50s or in the 60s. Others, who assume that Mark was written between 65 and 70, place Matthew in the 70s or even later. However, there is insufficient evidence to be dogmatic about either view. The Jewish nature of Matthew's Gospel may suggest that it was written in the Holy Land, though many think it may have originated in Syrian Antioch.
Since his Gospel was written in Greek, Matthew's readers were obviously Greek-speaking. They also seem to have been Jews. Many elements point to Jewish readership: Matthew's concern with fulfillment of the OT (he has more quotations from and allusions to the OT than any other NT author); his tracing of Jesus' descent from Abraham (1:1–17); his lack of explanation of Jewish Customs, (especially in contrast to Mark); his use of Jewish terminology (e.g., "kingdom of heaven", where "heaven" reveals the Jewish reverential reluctance to use the name of God; see note on 3:2); his emphasis on Jesus' role as "Son of David" (1:1; 9:27; 12:23; 15:22; 20:30–31; 21:9,15; 22:41–45). This does not mean, however, that Matthew restricts his Gospel to Jews. He records the coming of the Magi (non-Jews) to worship the infant Jesus (2:1–12), as well as Jesus' statement that the "field is the world" (13:38). He also gives a full statement of the Great Commission (28:18–20). These passages show that, although Matthew's Gospel is Jewish, it has a universal outlook.
Matthew's main purpose is to prove to his Jewish readers that Jesus is their Messiah. He does this primarily by showing how Jesus in his life and ministry fulfilled the OT Scriptures. Although all the Gospel writers quote the OT, Matthew includes nine proof texts unique to his Gospel (1:22–23; 2:15; 2:17–18; 2:23; 4:14–16; 8:17; 12:17–21; 13:35; 27:9–10) to drive home his basic theme: Jesus is the fulfillment of the OT predictions of the Messiah. Matthew even finds the history of God's people in the OT recapitulated in some aspects of Jesus' life (see, e.g., his quotation of Hos 11:1 in 2:15). To accomplish his purpose Matthew also emphasizes Jesus' Davidic Lineage.
The way the material is arranged reveals an artistic touch. The whole Gospel is woven around five great discourses: (1) chs. 5–7; (2) ch. 10; (3) ch. 13; (4) ch. 18; (5) chs. 24–25. That this is deliberate is clear from the refrain that concludes each discourse: "When Jesus had finished saying these things..." or similar words (7:28; 11:1; 13:53; 19:1; 26:1). The narrative sections, in each case, appropriately lead up to the discourses. The Gospel has a fitting prologue (chs. 1–2) and a challenging epilogue (28:16–20). The fivefold division may suggest that Matthew has modeled his book on the structure of the Pentateuch(the first five books of the OT). He may also be presenting the gospel as a new Torah and Jesus as a new and greater Moses.

Bowling increases lymphedema risk?
- Question from Ice Cream: Should I be concerned with getting lymphedema if I continue bowling in a league 3 games per week? I bowl right-handed and my right breast and nodes were removed.
- Answers - Linda Miller Lymphedema is always a concern; however, lymph fluid moves with movement, so staying active is an important part of lymph management. The key is to be consistent, do proper warm-up and stretching prior to bowling, and don't dramatically change how much you bowl at any one time.
The Ask-the-Expert Online Conference called After Surgery: Short-Term and Long-Term Effects featured Kristin Brill, M.D., F.A.C.S. and Linda Miller, P.T. answering your questions about short-term and long-term side effects of breast surgery, and what you can do about them.
