text: Hi everyone, I'm currently employed as the in-house graphic designer for a drinks company. It's my full time graphic design role since graduating in 2009 and i've been there for 6 months. In a nutshell, I feel like i'm in way above my head, and am looking for some general advice on dealing with work load and increasing my productivity. I'd also appreciate hearing from any of you who are in, or have been in, a similar position - and how you dealt with it. The course I took at uni was primarily illustration and printmaking based, though I did a reasonable amount of graphic design on the side. When I graduated I decided i wanted to find a full time creative role instead of freelancing. I tried to fill the gaps in my knowledge of the design process, though I have found it an uphill struggle since starting my job. I recently had a review with my boss, where I was informed that I wasn't as efficient nor as quick to 'nail' projects as the previous designers he has had. How do I overcome these issues and be a better designer? I'm trying not to let my recent feedback knock my confidence but it is quite difficult to distance myself from it. Anyway, rant over. Any and all advice appreciated! Thanks in advance, J

Mumbai, Feb 6: Batting legend Sachin Tendulkar has revealed how he listened to the same Hindi movie song on way to winning the 2011 World Cup.
World Cup Special; Tournament Guide; 10 major changes
Tendulkar, who realised his dream of lifting the World Cup at his home ground - Wankhede Stadium on April 2, 2011, has recalled those moments leading up to the triumph against Sri Lanka in the final.
Writing for "India Today" magazine, Tendulkar on Friday said he listened to Amit Kumar's song "Bade Achhe Lagte Hain" (Movie - Balika Badhu) for 7 days on the eve of India's semi-finals against Pakistan to the final in Mumbai.
"Soon after we landed in Mohali for the semi-final against Pakistan, I asked my team mates in the bus if any of them had the Amit Kumar song 'Bade Achhe Lagte Hain'," Tendulkar said.
"It was Mane kaka, our masseur, who did. It was the only song I listened to for the next seven days," he added. However, Tendulkar did not say whether he stuck to the same son due to superstition or otherwise.
Tendulkar played in a joint record (with Pakistan's Javed Miandad) 6 World Cups. He made his World Cup debut in 1992 and wen on to win the trophy in 2011.
The Master Blaster, who retired from international cricket in 2013, is the leading run scorer (2,278 runs) in World Cup history and also the highest centur maker with 6 tons.
The 2015 edition of World Cup will be played in Australia and New Zealand from February 14 to March 29.

Clifford Chance and Norton Rose are advising on the potential merger of T-Mobile UK and Orange UK in a deal that would create the largest mobile phone operator in the UK.
Clifford Chance partner Joachim Fleury, who heads the firm's communications, media and technology practice, is leading the team advising T-Mobile's parent Deutsche Telekom. T-Mobile is not receiving separate advice on the deal.
Fleury is working alongside London M&A partner Spencer Baylin and competition partner Jenine Hulsman as well as Düsseldorf competition partner and office head Joachim Schütze.
Orange's parent France Telecom, which has turned to New York elite firms such as Sullivan & Cromwell for past M&A deals, has instructed Norton Rose.
London corporate partner Oliver Stacey, corporate finance partner Chris Pearson and regulatory partner Michael Grenfell are leading the Norton Rose team.
The telecoms companies announced today that they have entered into exclusive negotiations to combine their UK arms in a new 50:50 joint venture company.
According to a statement released by Deutsche Telekom the new venture will create the UK's leading mobile operator, with a combined mobile customerbase of around 28.4 million.
T-Mobile UK will enter the joint venture on a cash-free, debt-free basis, while Orange UK will enter the venture along with £1.25bn of debt.
The statement said: "France Telecom would contribute the whole of Orange UK including £1.25bn of intra-group net debt in order to equalise the value of the contributions to the joint venture.
"Immediately after closing Deutsche Telekom would grant a £625m shareholder loan to the joint venture, which would be used to simultaneously reimburse £625m to France Telecom.
"As a result, the joint venture would have indebtedness of £1.25bn, represented by two shareholder loans of £625m held by each of Deutsche Telekom and France Telecom."
This is Clifford Chance's second major instruction this week. Yesterday, TheLawyer.com reported that the firm was instructed by Kraft on its rejected bid for UK chocolate company Cadbury (7 September 2009).
Clifford Chance and Norton Rose declined to comment.

For Olympic Bobsledder, Real Life Is a Downhill Slide
Price of Bill Schuffenhauer's Dedication Was Losing Family's House
PARK CITY, Utah—About 18 months ago, Ruthann Savage's fiancé quit his job and left town, leaving her to raise their child and pay their bills—a hardship that, in December, resulted in the loss of their home.
"If we'd had his paycheck, we wouldn't have lost the house," Ms. Savage, a nurse, says as she weeps.
But she really isn't all that angry at her fiancé, Bill Schuffenhauer. Last month, he returned home from his...

This can be a problem to get companies of all measurements – from huge established concerns to be able to small startups. Until you have enough cash to fund business expenses instructions rent, salaries in addition to suppliers – as you wait to get compensated – your company is likely to run into problems. You could have to avoid taking huge orders to conserve money. Or worse, you could have to delay repayments to employees or even key suppliers.
The magic variety in small business funding is two. Precisely why? Most traditional financial institutions will not provide you with resources if the business is no more than two years old. Research shows that a majority of smaller businesses will fail prior to the two-year deadline day. If they survive by means of this period, the same research shows the vast majority of surviving organizations will not fail. Offered these facts, every single small business owner needs to level the two year period of time for their company on the candle and depend off the days until it passes.
The real issue in the present economic environment is that loan companies of all types are usually below financial demands themselves. They will view it to be on their own should stay on top of their trading accounts receivable funding company and do everything important to get compensated while agreed. And your corporation may be in their views.
Forex trading in most basic terms is the obtaining one currency as well as the selling of one other. Forex trading, also referred to, while "FX" is offered to corporations, blueline, industrial banks, investment finances and private individuals, is it doesn't a largest financial industry in the world averaging daily business of over $1 trillion dollars, turning it into a diverse and thrilling market. It is a 24-hour market enabling that to accommodate constant transforming world currency exchange costs. According to New York moment, trading begins on 2 . 15pm about Sunday in Questionnaire and Singapore together with progress through to Tokyo at 7pm, Greater London at 2am in addition to reaches New York on 8am. This results in investors free to reply to global political, economic and social functions when they take place, time or night.
And yet, when confronted with a financial challenge, how much does a business owner do? Almost all will go to the lender, hoping for a business bank loan. But business loans are incredibly hard to obtain instead of very flexible. And also, banks give loan products based on your business earlier rather than your future possibilities. Many times, what you need is often a financing product which will be focused on your correct sales potential. Which product is business factoring firms.
Invoice discounting – Sell your current balances receivable. Invoice discounting may not be the best way to go into business, but is, of course, can help in the beginning. For those who have several large trading accounts receivable from the particular job or big order, consider invoice discounting. A person sells the receivable to some alternative party firm in an exchange with regards to cash. You'll obtain in between 70% : 90% from the associated with the receivable, with regards to the risk involved. It is pricey financing technique, but may help a person out in a touch or even allow you to take a significant job that you probably would not happen to be able to consider otherwise. Remember to aspect in the cost of the examination.
With regards to processing payments, running after business factoring companies up accounts sections of your debtors could eat up considerable meals of your time and discompose you from working on some other tasks. By having financially advanced to your enterprise and handing above invoices to a financing specialist, you can take more time on important duties.
The particular SBA is a superb organization, yet undoubtedly it is nevertheless the government. This implies lots of papers – complicated documents. It also means uncommon requirements that might be complicated so that you can actually meet up with. If you can't, after that obtaining the SBA to support your current loan request is going to be impossible and you will have to turn to other sources.

The Nebraska baseball team will find out Monday if it will get an at-large bid into the NCAA Tournament. The Huskers were forced to wait it out after losing to Michigan State and Indiana in the Big Ten Tournament.
Nebraska coach Darin Erstad feels the Huskers' 37-20 record and second place finish in the Big Ten regular season race is enough to get them into the tournament.
"We played strong down the stretch and if you are looking at RPI I think we have put ourselves in a good position there", said Erstad. "I just feel like we can play with anybody in the country and I don't think the Big Ten gets credit for how good it really is."
The NCAA Division I Baseball Championship Selection Show is scheduled for Monday on ESPNU at 11:00 a.m.

Exhibition of New Paintings by Angel Otero, inspired by the work of Robert Motherwell, on view at the Bronx Museum of the Arts this Fall
Bronx, New York—September 6, 2017—This fall, The Bronx Museum of the Arts will present an exhibition of seven new large-scale paintings by Angel Otero. On view from October 25, 2017 through April 29, 2018, this tightly curated exhibition will highlight the core tenants of Otero's practice, which mines and celebrates key works in art history to develop a compositional method that brings together and pulls apart disparate artistic influences, forming his own unique visual language. Through the works in Angel Otero: Elegies, guest curator Christian Viveros-Fauné invites us to consider Otero's evolving process of formal innovation in relation to that of the artist Robert Motherwell.
The series of paintings on view were inspired by conversations between Otero and Viveros-Fauné on the influence of Motherwell and the notion of elegies in Otero's work and process. Motherwell, a leading Abstract Expressionist and the author of over one hundred paintings titled Elegy to the Spanish Republic (completed between 1948 and 1967), created these mostly monochromatic canvases as a "lamentation or funeral song" on the subject of the Spanish Civil War. Invariably, these works have also served as illustrations of the power of abstract art to both take on the urgent themes of the artist's time and modernity's constant need for artistic innovation. The works Angel Otero has produced for the Bronx Museum are not elegies in the typical sense—i.e., paintings devoted to the idea of loss or deterioration. Instead, these works are celebrations of 21st-century painterly innovation and of the resilience of art during times of change.
Angel Otero: Elegies is made possible by Lead Sponsors Dedalus Foundation, Lehmann Maupin, Kavi Gupta, and Jody and Gerald Lippes; Major Supporters Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects, Sam and Shanit Schwartz, and Carole Server and Oliver Frankel; and, the Director's Circle, the Museum's premier support group.
About Angel Otero

Big brands back 'Climate Declaration' in US2013
Over 30 major American companies including eBay and Nike have signed a "Climate Declaration," urging federal policymakers to take action on climate change, asserting that a bold response to the climate challenge is one of the greatest American economic opportunities of the 21st century.
Signatories of the Climate Declaration are among the country's best-known consumer brands, including EMC Corporation, IKEA, Jones Lang LaSalle, L'Oréal, the North Face, the Portland Trail Blazers, Timberland and Unilever, among others. Over the course of an ongoing campaign organized by Ceres and its BICEP (Business for Innovative Climate & Energy Policy) coalition, other leading businesses, as well as individuals, will be encouraged to sign the Declaration and join the call to action.
"The signers of the Climate Declaration have a clear message for Washington: act on climate change. We are, and it's good for our businesses," said Anne Kelly, Director of BICEP. "The cost of inaction is too high. Policymakers should see climate change policy for what it is: an economic opportunity."
"From droughts that affect cotton crops to Hurricane Sandy, which caused extensive damage to our operations, climate affects all aspects of our business," said Eileen Fisher, ceo of New York-based apparel firm Eileen Fisher, which suffered severe damage and business interruption during the 2012 storm. "As a socially and environmentally responsible company, we are trying to affect positive change, but business can't do it alone. We need the support of strong climate legislation."
The Climate Declaration comes on the heels of President Obama's renewed commitment to combat the threat of climate change and a recent study from Ceres, Calvert Investments and WWF indicating that a strong majority of Fortune 100 companies have set renewable energy or greenhouse gas reduction goals. Recent polls conducted by Gallup and Yale University, respectively, indicate that a majority of Americans believe climate change is happening and that corporations, as well as government officials, should be doing more to address the issue.

Nicole & Chad - Grand Del Mar Hotel, San Diego
Another awesome wedding this past weekend. I photographed Nicole getting ready at The Grand Del Mar Hotel in Del Mar just north of San Diego. The Grand is fairly new and this was the first wedding that I photographed there (although I did my bridal fashion shoot for Exquisite Weddings Magazine there a few months back)
Chad is as much a screwball as Nicole is beautiful. He's always laughing and joking around. Today was no different.
The ceremony took place at St Therese Catholic Church in Del Mar. It's a new church with lots of natural light. The folks there were very friendly and made it easy to get great shots during the ceremony. The design of St. Therese reminds me of St. Gregory's in Scripps Ranch.
I have lots of hair-brained ideas for shots, however I can't take credit for this one. Chad volunteered to jump in the fountain. Who am I to say no?
The reception took place in one of the ballrooms at the Grand Del Mar. The florals and decor were handled by Botanica in San Diego. Mary Noble handled the coordination and production. It's always great working with her and her assistant Jammie. Everything is always perfectly planned and they make it easy for me to do my job.
You know what you did Chad. Don't try and give us that innocent look!
Lots of dancing and partying. When the band is the Wayne Foster Orchestra, be prepared to do some dancing. There's no one who puts together the mix of music, singing, dancers and production that they do.

Filtering by file type is possible in the ToDo navigator and probably this is а lapse in our documentation.
You can do this by selecting "File" in the comboBox which is right after "Filter by:" label.
Click on the link to watch a brief demo.
Also, we would like to ask you to check if "Current file" and "Current project" filters are working on your current version of JustCode.
If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, it seems that you can not achieve that with filter set to File, but I found another way. Here is a short demo how to search in the .cs files separate from the .css.
I hope it helps.

Truly liberating. College of Charleston alumnus David Lee Nelson grew up Republican, but he started feeling out of place when he joined a left-leaning Shakespeare troupe in Alabama after college. Now he's an out-of-the-closet New York liberal, and he's having a hard time explaining it to his dad, a lifelong conservative who lives in Greenville. The one-man show blends comedy with some real introspection about political identity.
Fear, but no loathing. In 2010, the last time he came to town, Nelson got solid reviews for Status Update, a gripping and darkly comic piece about getting divorced and sobering up in the Facebook age. The subject matter isn't as heavy this time around, but a central plot point is Nelson's fear of how his father will take the news of his liberal coming-out during the '08 presidential election season.
Carry on, leftward son. The show probably isn't what you think. There's no angsty confrontation with a cold and distant father figure, although Nelson says his dad has given him a few good ribbings about his newfound liberal views. "This man is my hero," he says. "I love him so much, and he's done everything for me always, and I didn't think it was right to not be honest with him anymore."

Increasing plant species richness decreases soil NO3 − concentrations in experimental plant mixtures, but the role of particular plant functional groups has remained unclear. Most analyses have focused on particular times of the year or were restricted to NO3 − We tested whether plant species richness or particular plant functional groups affect the size of plant-available N pools in soil (KCl-extractable NO3 −, dissolved inorganic N and organic N [DON] and total dissolved N [TDN] in soil solution) and N concentrations and pools in aboveground biomass. Furthermore, we assessed seasonal variations in the effects of plant species richness and plant functional groups. The experimental grassland site had 86 plots with different combinations of numbers of species (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 60) and numbers of functional groups (1, 2, 3, and 4, being grasses, small nonlegume herbs, tall nonlegume herbs, and legumes). In the second year after establishment, increasing species richness reduced soil NO3 − concentrations (ANOVA, 11% of sum of squares [SS]). The presence of legumes correlated positively with soil NO3 − concentrations (17% of SS). The presence of grasses significantly decreased soil NO3 − concentrations (11% of SS). Seasonality had no influence on the relationships between NO3 − concentrations and species richness. Volume-weighted mean DON and TDN concentrations in soil solution correlated negatively with species richness. Nitrogen pools in plant mixture biomass correlated positively with species diversity (14% of SS), indicating that total N uptake increased with increasing diversity. We conclude that both diversity (either in species or functional groups) and functional composition of grassland mixtures are significant controls of soil and plant N pools. Plant communities with more diverse mixtures are liable to use limiting resources such as N more effectively.Please view the pdf by using the Full Text (PDF) link under 'View' to the left.

After years and years of waiting, Apple eventually succumbs to the revolution that is phablet. I still remember how Steve Jobs' conviction of an ideal form factor in the iPhone models that are older have return to the business that he had resurrected from the point of departure. Anything less will not be large. A cellphone with screen size bigger compared to the iPhone was said to be unuseable.
For many years now, Apple's close competitors have been releasing larger display smartphones and the approach appears to be going very well with smartphone users. I thought it was the closing opportunity that I'm giving to Apple, this year. When they don't release a bigger display iPhone, I was going to jump ship. I 'd always wanted the super enormous Galaxy Note 3 but have been willing to wait because I actually don't enjoy the Samsung brand.
The unveiling of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus leaves me in a predicament. I'm confident I am not the only one who's having difficulty deciding which of the two colossal iPhone I should be getting. On one hand, I'm really attracted to the huge screen size the iPhone 6 Plus is offering. But on the flip side, I've been hearing a great deal of the negative stories around iPhone 6 Plus. Referred to some as the 'bendgate' scandal, when you put it in your rear pocket iPHone 6 Plus had been reported to be bendable.
It's been several years now since I've been needing to update from my iPhone 4. Problems and all the hypes leave me in uncertainty if it's the greatest time to get the iPhone 6 Plus now or is it better to go with the smaller iPhone 6 instead. Is the display size of the iPhone 6 huge enough. I am thinking if I'll regret my decision for getting the smaller display. Is screen size all there is to picking the winner between iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. I am actually not convinced. I hope someone can enlighten me on this.

Australian motorists are being warned not to expect any relief at the petrol pump in the near future, with prices tipped to rise further.
The Service Station Association has warned that higher oil prices, spiked by a production outage at a major Alaskan field as well as political tension in the Middle East, will be felt by Australian car owners over the next two weeks.
"It is a significant loss of capacity and we've already seen a sharp reaction in world crude oil prices, which is predictable, and that will flow on to Australian pumps in the next 10 to 14 days," Association chief executive Ron Bowden told AAP.
"The demand is so strong and supply is stretched that any disruption or threat to supply anywhere in the world will impact on the market and with the situation being very tense in the Middle East, that is already giving us elevated prices, so to have a production disruption of this magnitude is only going to send the price higher."
US crude futures closed $US2.22 higher in New York at $US76.98 a barrel for September delivery, after oil giant BP announced it would be closing its Prudhoe Bay oil field in Alaska - which produces 400,000 barrels a day - due to pipeline corrosion.
CommSec commodities strategist Tobin Gorey said the outage, which represents about 2.6 per cent of US crude oil consumption or half a per cent of global consumption, is significant.
"It doesn't sound like a lot, but in a market that's struggling to keep up, it is a lot," he said.
"They say they've got some pretty major maintenance problems...it's not like changing a light bulb, it is replacing a section of an oil pipeline and people are talking in terms of weeks, if not a month or more."
Mr Gorey said he doesn't expect the oil price to come back down to the $US60 or $US70 mark any time in the near future, predicting prices are much likely to get closer to $US80 a barrel.
"The ongoing problem of the oil market, is that it cannot deal with the outages," Mr Gorey said.
He also pointed to the Middle East and the ongoing unfinished hurricane season in the Gulf Of Mexico as additional antagonists to prices.
Last year's hurricane season was the most active on record, with 15 in total, including Rita and Katrina.
"The potential threat of tropical cyclone Chris underscored the sensitivity of the US refining market to capacity outages, although the specific threat quickly dissipated," Credit Suisse research analyst Andrew Williams said.
"In addition to the Middle East conflict, Iran's nuclear program and Nigeria also added fuel to the fire."
Political tensions persist in Iran, over its role in fighting between Israel and Hizbollah and its nuclear program, while fears have also surfaced over Nigeria, after Shell confirmed on August 5 that five of its joint venture contract workers had been shot by gunmen.

Cricket: The challenges of three different formats
Cricket's three formats - Test, ODI and T20 - create unique challenges for the players in every facet of the game.
A batsman takes guard. The first ball of the match is blocked, the second guided to the fielder at backward point. No run.
The bowler runs in and the next delivery is short-pitched. The batsman moves out of the way and it bounces through to the wicketkeeper. The next two balls are also aimed at the batsman's chest. Left alone once more.
At this moment - after five balls have been played and no runs scored - can you hazard a guess about the mood amongst the spectators? Are the ones supporting the batting team getting impatient? Or are they happy their player is getting his eye in?
You don't know, do you? You can't. For you haven't been told anything about the match format. You have no idea whether it is an Indian Premier League (IPL) game or a part of the Border-Gavaskar series.
The differing demands of every format
One of the most captivating things about cricket these days is the juxtaposition of skills across different formats. While even the spectators must adjust their viewing habits, it is the players who face the real challenge.
Against the formidable Australian team only last month, Virat Kohli and his troupe of batsmen were meant to occupy the crease for hours. Bowlers were to be overcome with grit, their firepower patiently endured and not urgently countered.
And then just a few days later, the approach had to change as the players joined their IPL teams. If Tests are cricket in slow-motion, T20 is the game on steroids. There is no time to get settled on the crease, no time to understand the pace of the pitch. There is a target to reach and ten runs to get in every over.
Every dot ball is a knife wound in your gut. Thrusts can't be parried; salvos must not be defended. Swing your bat or die trying.
Bowlers, of course, face a similar challenge on their side of the game. Even a single ball can't be off-target when you have only four overs to bowl.
In a Test match, bowlers are like a party of skilled artisans. Every thread and every yarn is patiently sewn into the pattern to create a magnificent trap. With alternating aggression and temptation, the batsmen are drawn into the web tantalisingly.
That indecisive corridor outside the off-stump is peppered with swinging deliveries. The straightening ball is pushed through after four flights of leg spin. When the wicket falls, it is the fruit of many overs of careful gardening.
In a T20, there is no time to plant any seeds or nurture them. Bhuvneshwar Kumar can't put a drawn out plan into action in the IPL as he knows he will only get a dozen deliveries in a spell to change the game for his team. A different approach, a different temperament is needed.
The greatest shall forever shine
The bridge between different cricket formats is one scaled with much difficulty. Many skilled soldiers fall into the chasms below. It is a divide that separates the good from the great. It is a goldsmith's sieve that lets only the brightest diamonds through.
Don Bradman was the greatest batsman the game has ever seen but this was a challenge he never had to face. Dennis Lillee was a much-feared bowler but you have to wonder if his aggression would have been as threatening when the T20 format forced batsmen to become carefree.
The players in the history books of the 21st century, the ones who will be long remembered, would be those who make every format their own. They play gritty Test knocks, whack the ball out of the park in the IPL and then score centuries for their country in the Champions Trophy.
They are shape-shifting magicians, capable of weathering every storm. They will leave a bouncer alone in one format and hook it for a six in another. They are simultaneously polar bears in Antarctica and camels in the deserts of Arabia.
It is impossible for a team to find eleven of these maestros. Cheteshwar Pujara may have the mental strength for a 525-ball vigil against Australia but none of the IPL teams picked him for their squads. Yuvraj Singh can hit mighty sixes in the shorter forms of the game but has only played 40 Test matches in his 17-year career.
Just like those who act brilliantly in Shakespearean plays aren't necessarily suitable for slapstick comedies, cricket players are often specialists for specific formats as well.
A very crowded calendar
This, of course, does not make their contributions any less worthwhile. But teams will always be built around players who can make every situation their own. Unfortunately, that also means that the best batsmen and bowlers also have the greatest workloads.
Top Indian players defended the team's Test ranking over the winter and immediately headed to the IPL. With barely a few days of rest, they will again be called upon to play in the ICC Champions Trophy.
Indian players are some of the most overworked in the cricketing fraternity and their journey over the past few months has been taxing. The advent of T20 in the past decade has only crowded the cricket calendar further.
Kohli has already carried a shoulder injury this year. Ravichandran Ashwin is missing the IPL due to a sports hernia. Tournaments won't stop tumbling one after another; there will rarely be a natural break.
The heroes of Indian cricket may be able to make the mental transition between different formats but every joint and every muscle must be complaining. A sportsman's ability is a product of the mind as well as the body and a tired team rarely wins matches.
It is a bit anti-climactic but in this hectic era of Tests, T20s and ODIs, the key skill that decides the outcome of tournaments might not be batting, bowling or fielding. It might be scheduling instead. And if that happens, irrespective of which team wins, it is the game of cricket that would be the real loser.

On Wednesday, lawyers for the traders are understood to have negotiated terms for collateral payments with a judge in return for having assets, including homes and cars, released from the court's control. Two of the seven arrested are thought to have agreed payments of around £4m each and the rest are thought to have offered property assets of up to £1m each as security.
The agreements are thought to have taken place after a series of frantic negotiations during the past three weeks between the lawyers of the seven arrested and the Financial Services Authority and Serious Organised Crime Agency (Soca) carrying out the investigation.
The FSA confirmed that seven individuals at City institutions including banks, a hedge fund and a broker, had been arrested "on suspicion of being involved in a sophisticated and long-running insider dealing ring", and were questioned on or around March 23.
Their assets are understood to have been frozen following the arrests, leaving the traders with around £300-a-week to live on. According to City sources their lawyers sought individual petitions to unfreeze their assets.
The judge is thought to have rejected proposals from the lawyers twice before accepting security in the form of cash or property in a deal that was also acceptable to the FSA and Soca.
Both agencies declined to comment on the develop-ments or on a report last week that said the traders could be entitled to legal aid.
Of the seven, six have been named so far. They are: Clive Roberts, head of sales trading at Exane, in which BNP Paribas owns a 50pc stake but has minority voting rights; Martyn Dodgson, a managing director at Deutsche Bank, who worked as part of the team advising the Treasury on the bail-out of UK banks; Julian Rifat, an execution trader at Moore Capital; Graeme Shelley, a trader at Novum Securities; Ben Anderson, a former stockbroker; and Iraj Parvizi, a Mayfair-based Iranian. The seventh individual has not been identified but is believed to be a man and not Mr Parvizi's wife as some reports have suggested.
All deny any wrongdoing. All the firms are co-operating with the inquiry.
Although it is not known when they will appear in court City sources said the men had been told that they would learn within six months if they are to face charges. Two other traders thought to be on a list of nine being pursued by the FSA and Soca are believed to work outside the City.
The investigation is thought to have been centred on a number of trades beginning in 2007 in fund-raisings for Barclays, Segro, Taylor Wimpey and the takeover of Scottish & Newcastle.
It is one of five major investigations brought by the FSA in the past 18 months, led by head of enforcement Margaret Cole. Last month she said the FSA's strong pipeline of future cases showed its "visible commitment to tougher enforcement action as a long-term approach".
Last week another seven men charged by the FSA as part of its "Project Saturn" inquiry into claims of insider dealing by staff in the print rooms of JPMorgan Cazenove and UBS appeared at a preliminary hearing.

Leverage | Tides
by John Kindred

Classic Albums Revisited —
Following in the tradition of classic Hard Rock bands such as Rainbow and MSG, the Finnish band Leverage weighs in with their debut CD, Tides. The band is comprised of six talented musicians that have combined their love of classic hard rock and fused that with influences from today's progressive metal genre to create a modern take on old school melodic hard rock.
The band, which was the brainchild of guitarist Tuomas Heikkinen, quickly took on a life of its own when Heikkinen and guitarist Torsti Spoof banded together and began working on songs that Heikkinen had written. After hearing Pekka Heino's (Brother Firetribe) voice on a cell phone recording, Heikkinen new that the elements for making a great rock band had fallen in place. Thus Leverage was born.
The band, which is rounded out by keyboardist Marko Niskala, bassist Pekka Lampinen, and drummer Valtteri Revonkorpi, recorded a promotional single that featured the songs "Fifteen Years" and "Marching to War" and was then included in an issue of Inferno Magazine in the spring of '06. Leverage's management team then headed to Japan and secured a licensing deal with the Japanese label Avalon for the CD release of Tides.
Tides is a 10-song affair that shies away from the metallic, double bass attack of Power Metal that has become prominent across Europe in recent years. The band openly embraces what Heikkinen describes as the "great heritage of melodic heavy rock with a modern touch." And truly Leverage's music represents this idea.
Comparisons can be drawn to Masterplan's lavish compositional arrangements as well to Gary Hughes band Ten and his solo work on Once and Future King Part 1 and 2. Leverage though stays away from overly distorted-frantic-rhythms, power drumming and orchestral melodrama and instead strives to achieve a guitar tonality similar to their heroes that are listenable too, without crushing your skull. The arrangements are thematic in nature but you get the feeling that all the songs can be performed live without the need for computer enhanced backing tracks.
Leverage isn't vocalist Pekka Heino's first band having performed with the Finnish band Brother Firetribe performing AOR-style Rock. The main difference between Brother Firetribe and Leverage is the style of Rock played by both bands. Heino's voice is strong and fits the musical sound bed of Leverage without any hang ups. His voice assails you at a mid-range timbre but Heino can also reach and hit the high notes and take it low all while actually singing without barking or growling out and losing your attention.
As for the music, Heikkinen's and Spoof's guitar interplay is superb. They provide plenty of riffs, crunchy rhythms and solo interludes that showcase their skills but both tend not to overplay the songs whether rhythmically or from a solo standpoint. They both strive to achieve a guitar tone unique to their playing style. They shy away from distortion to the point of losing the signal to buzzing overtones which retains the strength of the power generated from their stringed instruments.
The music rocks! It is as simple as that. From the opening "Fifteen Years" which teases you with a subtle piano intro before opening into a driving progression you are instantly catapulted into the band's dynamic audio landscape that features brilliant musicianship, intelligent lyrics, and superior vocals. "Stranger," "Follow Down That River," "Twilight Symphony," "Gone" are some of the best on songs on Tides yet the entire CD stands out and features absolutely no filler tracks. Leverage proves to be a step ahead of its peers recognizing the strengths of the Melodic Hard Rock genre and delivering a balanced album of memorable music.

Higgs sector in Effective U(1) Models
from Branes
Claudio Corianò
Dipartimento di Fisica
Univ. di Lecce, INFN Lecce
We are currently selecting the kinds of processes on which we hope to be able to say
something and contribute to this workshop by combining (whenever possible)
NNLO QCD studies with studies of new physics.
(Cafarella, Guzzi, Morelli, C.C.)
High Precision QCD (NNLO) pursued by various people,
is useful, at least for some basic processes, DY for instance,
we need new ideas to test.
impact of scaling violations on the pdf's
(study is quite involved: errors on the pdf's, issues related to the choice of a suitable
scale in the evolution, tests of benchmarks - Marco Guzzi's talk-)
Objective: having Drell-Yan under control at NNLO, fine tuning XSIEVE, etc., comparisons
with PEGASUS, interface with VRAP, and so on (will be done soon).
How to organize the search for EXTRA Z' in such a way that it covers also other possibilities,
is sufficiently general, etc.
We will try a general analysis (here an experimental input is welcomed)
But also: how to find some signatures for specific models. Then we can't just stop at DY,
but we need to look closely at other sectors as well, the Higgs sector, for instance.
In brane models the type of gauge interactions
that appears aro those of U(N) type.
U(N)=SU(N)x U(1).
The pattern is very different compared to stuandard GUT's
String theories live in D=10= 9(space) +1(time) spacetime dimensions.
ED models assume a spacetime structure in which
p coordinates describe the brane and (9- p) are the remaining "extra" space coordinates.
These extra coordinates are characterized by a compactification radius R which can be of a millimeter (the extra dimensional space is called: the bulk).
Gravity can go into the bulk (ED)
Matter stays on the brane.
The Planck scale we are used to (MPlanck)
is not the true scale for gravity.
D=10 = 9 +1 = (3 +1) + (Nkk) + n
Nkk= Kaluza-Klein dimensions
D= 4 + n
n= number of extra dimensions.
We can have up to n=6 extra dimensions (Nkk=0)
The scale of gravity is lowered (M *) << MPlanck
Gravity becomes strong as soon as we reach M*, which
is the true scale for gravity. It can be of the order of the
electroweak scale (say M* = 1 TeV) .
Gravitational effects which ordinarily occur for very large
masses, say 1.5 times the solar mass, are now possible
at an equivalent energy E > M*
rGravity Becomes Stronger
1) Introducing a direct (gauge variant) direct interaction between the gauge bosons
whose variation cancels the anomaly
2) Or we can introduce an additional field (compensator field), one or more, say b,c
(axions) and let them shift linearly under the gauge transformations to remove the
FF unwanted terms
3) Both (?)
You can cure anomalies by (a FF) interactions using a suitable set of axions.
Then: if string theory predicts several U(1)'s and we are not necessarily
bound to introduce a breaking at some large (super heavy scale, say a GUT scale)
Via a Higgs system, then we should look for alternative ways to render the U(1)'s massive
This comes fore free: The Stuckelberg trick.
(gauge field)-axion mixing
We can generate a mass for U(1)_B
through a combined Higgs-Stuckelberg mechanism
2) matter term (b) for U(1)_B
Question: are the axions just Nambu-Goldstone modes
In the presence of an anomalous fermionic spectrum ?
No. One axion becomes physical and mixes with the Higgs sector: the axi-Higgs (Irges, Kiritsis, CC)
In other words: in the presence of chiral couplings the
Feynman rules are not sufficient to fix the theory.
2 Higgses, AAF Chern Simons interactions
Stuckelberg terms for the anomalous U(1)'s
To this lagrangean we add dimension-5
aFF operators for an anomaly free theory at
The fermion spectrum is, therefore: anomalous
How do we extract an anomaly free hypercharge?
CS interactions in the exact phase
Axions aI
2 Higgses, AAF Chern Simons interactions
Stuckelberg terms for the anomalous U(1)'s
To this lagrangean we add dimension-5
aFF operators for an anomaly free theory at
The fermion spectrum is, therefore: anomalous
How do we extract an anomaly free hypercharge?
(G0,A0) come from the CP-odd part (Im Hu,Im Hd)
The counting is 14 (gauge) + 8 (Higgs) + 3 axions------> 20 (gauge) + 5 (Higgs) + 3 axions
Broken generators: 4 + 3 -1(em)=6 ---------> 6 NG modes = G+, G0, a1,a2,a3
Therefore when there is no mixing in the potential the axions are NG modes.
Rotation from the hypercharge basis
to the physical basis (mass eigenstates)
We need to determine MI, the masses of the U(1) GAUGE BOSONS
In terms of the charges of
SU(3) xSU(2)x U(1)_y xU(1)'
Guzzi, Irges, C.C.
Associated production g g--> H Z, now with the additional
Models with anomalous U(1)'s from the Brane construction
Antoniadis, Kiritsis, Rizos, Tomaras
Antoniadis, Leontaris, Rizos
Ibanez, Marchesano, Rabadan,
Ghilencea, Ibanez, Irges, Quevedo
See. E. Kiritsis' review on Phys. Rep.
Nikos Irges + E. Kiritsis talks at this meeting
We can study an entire class of models based on the brane construction
These model are peculiar (and general, with universal features)
because of a specific mechanism of anomaly cancelations (Green.Schwarz)
1) The Higgs sector has an Axi-Higgs ( Irges, Kiritsis, C.)
The phenomenology is different from usual GUT-based models
2) Stuckelberg mechanism
3) Direct Chern Simons Interactions absent in the Standard Model

Gutierrez-KabayaoArtPipe Events Filed Under:
Munich-trained volin whiz Chino Gutierrez and his collaborating artist, distinguished pianist Corazon Pineda Kabayao, to play at concert in Bacolod City March 6.
Good news for lovers of classical violin and students of the violin in Bacolod City and neighboring towns and cities: after two acclaimed concerts in Makati and Alabang in recent weeks, and a successful performance before students of SouthRidge School in Alabang, virtuoso Chino Gutierrez "invades" Bacolod City on Thursday, March 6, 2014, to stage a concert at 7 pm. at the Santuario de La Salle, University of St. La Salle.
His Bacolod concert will be held prior to the 23-year old virtuoso's return to Munich, Germany, where he is enrolled at the Munich State Academy of Music and Theater.
Chino, who began his violin career at age 7 under the tutelage of Alfonso "Coke" Bolipata, won second prize in NAMCYA and eventually first prize before he even reached his teens, will have as collaborating artist the distinguished pianist and UST magna cum laude graduate Corazon Pineda Kabayao, wife and musical partner of Visayan virtuoso Gilopez Kabayao.
Equally interesting will be their mini-concert-cum workshop with 90 violin scholars of Silay Mayor Jose "Oti" L. Montelibano at the Balay Negrense in Silay City on Wednesday, March 5, at 3pm.
The classical works to be played at the Gutierrez-Kabayao La Salle concert will include immortal pieces by Ceasar Franck, Stravinsky, Dvorak, Wieniawski and Ravel. A special number will be his rendition of the composition of our National Hero, Dr. Jose Rizal, titled "La Deportacion," as transcribed and first played in public by maestro Gilopez Kabayao. This beautiful piece evokes the pathos of Rizal's exile in Dapitan.
Also sure to be applauded will be Chino's rendition of the stirring "Bayan Ko," as arranged by the late maestro Redentor Romero, and well-loved Visayan love songs.
These two musical events in Silay/Bacolod were organized by civic leader Lyn Gamboa. Tickets to the March 6 La Salle Bacolod concert are priced at P500 for general public, with 20% senior discount, and P100 for students with ID. For ticket inquiries pls. call Negros Museum #433-4864 and ask for Cleo.

There is talk in the market that not all traders may perform under IPL India's 21 July purchase tender given the sharp rise in prices of prilled urea in China over the last few days.
One or two traders are believed to have not submitted performance bonds although this is not confirmed.
There is also now talk that a new import tender might come earlier than had been expected, with some indicating as early as late August.

Join Now! It's FREE. Get full access and benefit from this site
Before beginning, you may want to use the MD5 sum provided at the VM download page to verify your download. On Mac OS X and *nix systems, you can use the command
md5 learning_puppet_vm.zip and compare the output to the text contents of the
learning_puppet_vm.zip.md5 file provided on the download page. On Windows systems, you will need to download and use a tool such as the Microsoft File Checksum Integrity Verifier.
Get an up-to-date version of your virtualization software. We suggest using either VirtualBox or a VMware application appropriate for your platform. VirtualBox is free and available for Linux, OS X, and Windows. VMware has several desktop virtualization applications, including VMWare Fusion for Mac and VMware Workstation for Windows.
The Learning VM's Open Virtualization Archive format must be imported rather than opened directly. Launch your virtualization software and find an option for Import or Import Appliance. (This will usually be in a File menu. If you cannot locate an Import option, please refer to your virtualization software's documentation.)
Before starting the VM for the first time, you will need to adjust its settings. We recommend allocating 4GB of memory for the best performance. If you don't have enough memory on your host machine, you may leave the allocation at 3GB or lower it to 2GB, though you may encounter stability and performance issues. Set the Network Adapter to Bridged. Use an Autodetect setting if available, or accept the default Network Adapter name. (If you started the VM before making these changes, you may need to restart the VM before the settings will be applied correctly.) If you are unable to use a bridged network, we suggest using the port-forwarding instructions provided in the troubleshooting guide.
Start the VM. When it is started, make a note of the IP address and password displayed on the splash page. Rather than logging in directly, we highly recommend using SSH. On OS X, you can use the default Terminal application or a third-party application like iTerm. For Windows, we suggest the free SSH client PuTTY. Connect to the Learning VM with the login
root and password you noted from the splash page. (e.g.
ssh root@<IPADDRESS>) Be aware that it might take several minutes for the services in the PE stack to fully start after the VM boots. Once you're connected to the VM, we suggest updating the clock with
ntpdate pool.ntp.org.
You can access this Quest Guide via a webserver running on the Learning VM itself. Open a web broswer on your host and enter the Learning VM's IP address in the address bar. (Be sure to use
http://<ADDRESS> for the Quest Guide, as
https://<ADDRESS> will take you to the PE console.
For issues with Puppet Enterprise that are not specific to the Learning VM, see the Puppet Enterprise Known Issues page.
The Learning VM version 2.29 has an error in the instructions for this quest. The cowsay package declaration should include
provider => 'gem', rather than
ensure => 'gem'.
If you continue to get puppet run failures related to the gem, you can install the cached version manually:
gem install /var/cache/rubygems/gems/cowsay-0.2.0.gem
The quest tool uses a series of Serverspec tests for each quest to track task progress. Certain tasks simply check your bash history for an entered command. In some cases, the
/root/.bash_history won't be properly initialized, causing these tests to fail. Exiting the VM and logging in again will fix this issue.
It is also possible that we have written the test for a task in a way that is too restrictive and doesn't correctly capture a valid syntactical variation in your Puppet code or another relevant file. You can check the specific matchers by looking at a quest's spec file in the
The Learning VM's Quest Guide is accessible at
http://<VM's IP Address>. Note that this is
http and not
https which is reserved for the PE console. The PE console will prompt you for a password, while no password is required for the Quest Guide. (The Quest Guide includes a password for the PE console in the Power of Puppet quest: admin/puppetlabs)
The password to log in to the VM is generated randomly and will be displayed on the splash page displayed on the terminal of your virtualization software when you start the VM.
If you are already logged in via your virtualization software's terminal, you can use the following command to view the password:
cat /var/local/password.
Possibly, but we don't currently have the resources to test or support the Learning VM on these platforms.
It may take some time after the VM is started before all the Puppet services are fully started. If you recently started or restarted the VM, please wait a few minutes and try to access the console or trigger your puppet run again.
Also, because the Learning VM's puppet services are configured to run in an environment with restricted resources, they are more prone to crashes than a default installation with dedicated resources.
You can check the status of puppet services with the following command:
systemctl --all | grep pe-
If you notice any stopped puppet-related services (e.g. pe-puppetdb), double check that you have sufficient memory allocated to the VM and available on your host before you try starting them (e.g.
service pe-puppetdb start).
If you get an error along the lines of
Error 400 on SERVER: Unknown function union... it is likely because the
puppetlabs-stdlib module has not been installed. This module is a dependency for many modules, and provides a set of common functions. If you are running the Learning VM offline, you cannot rely on the Puppet Forge's dependency resolution. We have this module and all other modules required for the Learning VM cached, with instructions to install them in the Power of Puppet quest. If that installation fails, you may try adding the
--force flag after the
--ignore-dependencies flag.
First, ensure that you have an up-to-date version of your virtualization software installed. Note that the "check for updates" feature of VirtualBox may not always work as expected, so check the website for the most recent version.
If your network connection has changed since you loaded the VM, it's possible that your IP address is different from that displayed on the Learning VM splash screen. Log in to the VM via the virtualization directly (rather than SSH) and use the
facter ipaddress command the check the current address.
Some network configurations may still prevent you from accessing the Learning VM. If this is the case, you can still access the Learning VM by configuring port forwarding.
Change your VM's network adapter to NAT, and configure port forwarding as follows:
Name - Protocol - HostIP - HostPort - GuestIP - GuestPort
Once you have set up port forwarding, you can use those ports to access the VM via ssh (
ssh -p 2222 root@localhost) and access the Quest Guide and PE console by entering
http://localhost:8080 and
https://localhost:8443 in your browser address bar.
The Learning VM uses a tool called tmux to allow us to display the quest status. You can scroll in tmux by first hitting control-b, then [ (left bracket). You will then be able to use the arrow keys to scroll. Press q to exit scrolling.
Reduce the VM's processors to 1 and disable the "I/O APIC" option in the system section of the settings menu.

Last week the weather was calm and warm, ad today the wind is picking up and the temperature will drop over the next few days. Gale-force winds and rain look to be in our future; but not yet any snow. So far this winter we've had it quite mild…but maybe, just maybe there will be snow yet in February, or maybe March. Perhaps we may even have to drive up into the hills to see some. We did that a few years back, and it was great fun! So until we have some snow in person, the best we can do is live vicariously and read some books about snow, make paper snowflakes, and dream about snowmen.
