Barney's chief executive to resign: paper
- Tweet
- Share this
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The chief executive of luxury clothing retailer Barneys New York has said he plans to resign, The New York Times reported on Saturday.
Citing colleagues of Howard Socol, who presided over the company's steadying after it fell into bankruptcy in the mid-1990s, the newspaper reported that people with knowledge of the situation had said Socol had sharp differences with the company's new owners over strategy including plans for overseas expansion.
Barneys was bought from Jones Apparel by Istithmar, the investment arm of the Dubai government, for $942 million last summer.
Socol's colleagues spoke on condition of anonymity, and said he might announce his resignation as early as next week, the Times said.
Socol's "frustration level (with Istithmar's plans) was pretty high," the newspaper quoted one person familiar with the executive's thoughts as saying. He joined the company in 2001.
A spokeswoman for Barneys, vice president Dawn Brown, said the company had no comment, and representatives of Istithmar did not return phone calls or e-mail messages, the Times said.
Barneys also maintains stores in Beverly Hills, Chicago and five other markets as well as more than a dozen Co-Op stores around the country. (Reporting by Chris Michaud, editing by Jackie Frank)

OXON HILL, Md. (AP) — Rescue officials say three harness race drivers have been hurt in an incident during a race at Rosecroft Raceway in Oxon Hill.
Prince George's County fire and EMS spokesman Mark Brady said it happened about 8 p.m. Tuesday night during a race. He said three were injured; none of the injuries was considered to be life-threatening.
Brady said two of the drivers were being flown by a state police medevac helicopter, which landed in the infield, to a trauma center; the third was being transported by ground.
It was not known if any horses were injured.

Is Arbuckle Lake the best bass fishing lake in the state? Two winning stringers of 40 plus pounds and a big bass of more than 10 pounds on consecutive January weekends in bass tournaments at Arbuckle certainly would make it seem so.
Is Arbuckle or Grand the best bass fishing lake in Oklahoma?
Arbuckle Lake frequently has been producing trophy bass in recent years, leading to more tournaments and fishing pressure. Anglers who had never before heard of Arbuckle Lake several years ago are now making it a fishing destination. But is it now the undisputed king of Oklahoma bass fishing?
"It's debatable," said Gene Gilliland, assistant chief of fisheries for the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation. "It depends on what you are looking for. If I am fishing for a 10-pounder, I am going to Arbuckle. If I am looking for a boatload of 2, 3, 4 or 5-pounders, I am going to Grand."
Arbuckle has been on an incredible run of late, but it hasn't always been a good bass fishing destination. Historically, Arbuckle was dominated by small, slow-growing bass, Gilliland said.
About 10 years ago, the Wildlife Department reintroduced the Florida-strain of largemouth bass in the 2,300-acre lake and those fish have matured.
"The fish that we stocked, or the offspring of those stocked fish, are now turning into these trophy bass that are being caught on a pretty regular basis for the past three years," Gilliland said. "You have good genetics from the stocking program, good habitat and good forage.

Five Minutes With
Gary Hunt, incoming president of the Allegheny County Bar Association
- Patty Tascarella
Gary Hunt, a veteran litigator and shareholder of Tucker Arensberg PC, officially becomes president of the Allegheny County Bar Association on July 1. The term is one year.
Hunt has been a member of ACBA since he began practicing law in 1976. ACBA has approximately 6,000 members, which Hunt said represents approximately 80 percent of the lawyers in the community.
What challenges does the legal profession face?
One of the biggest is the trend to view legal services as a commodity, driven by the same market forces that drive delivery of other commodities. In my view, that trend is driving both clients and law firms to make decisions regarding the delivery of legal advice and services that are not necessarily in the best interests of the clients.
What about the ACBA?
The ACBA is a vibrant organization that had been the glue for the local legal community for many years. However, we face the same issues that any other membership organization faces, including maintaining relevance to our members and delivering high quality services while controlling costs.
However, the nature of our organization and our mission present us with the additional pressures of trying to deliver services to the public at large, and trying to ensure gender equality, and racial and ethnic diversity in our local legal community. Our challenge is to find ways to accomplish each of these goals while sticking to our budget.
What are your priorities with the organization?
I do not plan to launch any new initiatives, because I believe that I can better spend my time focusing on the important activities in which the ACBA is already involved. It is my plan to focus primarily on three ongoing initiatives of the ACBA. In no particular order, those are: advancing and energizing the ACBA's Diversity Initiative; coordinating and supporting the ACBA's gender equality initiative, including the Gender Equality Institute; and encouraging our members to engage in more pro bono activities through education of the many pro bono opportunities that exist, and by pointing out how our members can make a positive difference in our community.

Experienced growers know that a beautiful garden starts with living, healthy soil. Most plants thrive in well-drained, slightly acidic, soils that are rich in organic matter. The challenge, however, is that most of the world's soils do not exist this way and they must be balanced, or amended, to provide the conditions necessary for robust plant growth. Click on the information and news below to learn about soil health and what can be done to improve it.
Soil Health
Making sure your garden soil has the proper pH and amounts of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium now helps guarantee growing success.
We often talk about the fact that successful gardening, especially successful organic gardening, requires healthy soil. But how do you know if your soil is healthy? Adding lots of organic material helps assure that your soil is alive with microbes, maintains a balance of nutrients, and has good drainage. But what about its acid-alkaline balance (the measurement known as pH)? What about the nutrients that plants need to be healthy and resist pests and diseases? (more…)
Getting the most from your vegetable garden while saving space, water and work.
I give my grandfather a lot of credit when it comes to teaching me the craft of gardening. But he wasn't right about everything. Or, at least, not all of his techniques were the most productive. Like grandfather demonstrated year in and year out, I started off planting vegetables in neat-lined rows, one plant following the other. I did this for everything: carrots, beets, lettuce, corn, even squash and pumpkins. It was just the way he did it and always had.
Circumstance eventually changed my thinking. Given a tiny front yard, I began spacing plants together in enclosed, raised beds. As long as I could reach the center of the beds, everything was fine. (more…)
What should gardeners do in the face of water shortages?
We don't have to tell you. The news from many parts of the west is all about drought. You can find accounts of what's being faced, including the potential for cutbacks and rationing, here, here, and here. And the forecast for the coming months doesn't look good.
No matter if you believe that drought is just a part of the natural cycle (it is) or is a product of global warming (we don't see this as an easy either-or question but think both factors could be in play), dealing with a lack of or more expensive water is something that gardeners frequently face. Even as a back-to-the-land, ex-hippie in the 19(garbled) living on the edge of the rain forest in Washington State we had summer months without rain some years that meant the buried reservoir that collected water from our spring filled more slowly and even ran dry when we watered our rather large garden. That's the problem with water: you run out just when you need it most. (more…)
Keeping lawns exposed to wet springs and slowly melting snow from falling to disease.
The vagaries of climate variation across the country this winter suggests that we might be seeing the dreaded gray snow mold surface in lawns where it hasn't been seen before. Those of us familiar with late snow covers, cold, damp springs, and other conditions favorable to lawn diseases are well familiar with this problem.
Gray snow mold is a common problem in areas where snow cover persists into the spring as temperatures warm. It shows itself in circular or irregularly shaped gray or brown spots in the lawn that can range from an inch or two across to over a foot or more. Fuzzy gray strings, known as mycelia, may stretch across and out from the area, especially as the snow melts away. (more…)
Planting green manures to out-compete weeds eliminates the need for risky herbicides.
Organic gardeners know the value of sowing cover crops. Often referred to as "green manure," cover crops are thought most valuable for what they return to the soil. Protecting the soil from hard rains, wind erosion, and other effects is seen as a side benefit. And, too, a cover crop discourages weeds, by crowding them out or inhibiting their growth.
Sometimes, cover crops are planted primarily to control weeds. Planted with this purpose in mind, cover crops become smother crops. They work best when dealing with perennial weeds but can also help starve out annuals when used over consecutive seasons. And they can be as effective (or more) on some of the worst perennial weeds. Let me tell you a story. (more…)
Plan your spring planting to control disease, weeds, and pests while boosting soil quality.
We've all heard of the benefits of crop rotation in large scale agriculture. And we all know that those benefits can transfer to our home gardens. Even the smallest of gardens can benefit from crop rotation, even if crops are only moved a few feet each year. Crop rotation is especially important to the organic grower because it precludes many of the problems that lead to the use of chemical pesticides and herbicides.
Exactly what are the benefits? Rotating crops is especially critical to preventing disease from getting a foot hold on certain vegetables you might plant. The bacteria and spores that attack specific plants can survive winters and infect those plants again the following year. The good news is, once in the soil they can't travel far. You'll do more to move them around with your spring cultivation than anything they might do on their own. If you plant the same hosts that those diseases are looking for, you'll provide them with the ability to re-establish and become even more severe. Plant something from another group of vegetables that don't normally host the problems, and they'll eventually disappear. (more…)
Protecting garden soil and starting seed outdoors in the dead of winter.
The harsh weather much of the country is experiencing means something to our gardens. Ground will freeze where it seldom freezes. Snow will visit places it seldom sees. Those familiar with snow and cold are seeing more of it.
What does this mean for our gardens? Bare soil frozen at extremely cold temperatures is subject to frost heave. Microorganisms, worms, and other living components of our earth are lost as they retreat as deeply as they can.
Mulching before the the cold weather sets in will moderate ground temperatures and protect soil. A good snow cover also helps. When the forecast is set for extreme cold, it might be a good idea to add more mulch – you're mulching your garden, right? Those places already with snow cover, forget it. I was going to recommend that you go out and shovel fall leaves, if you can find them, and snow on top of what's already blanketing your garden. But I'd forgotten how cold your toes and your cheeks get when you're outside and it's 15 degrees, let alone 1.5 degrees above zero or colder. And I forgot how fast the wind will scatter any leaves you turn over. No doubt you mulched well ahead of winter weather. That will have to do. (more…)
Gardening practice, like the garden itself, can always be improved. We resolve to do more, do better.
I've always liked the idea of New Year's resolutions even if I wasn't completely successful in keeping them. I can get behind the idea of taking stock of where you are, what you need to change; all with an eye to improvement or the realization of a goal or two. It's good medicine.
Gardeners have more opportunity at this than most. Sure, everyone at least considers turning over a new leaf at the beginning of the year. But gardeners consider these resolve-to-make-it-better ideas when they plant in the spring, put the garden to bed in the fall, and all winter long as they peruse seed catalogs, read old gardening journals, and draw schematics that show exactly where the tomatoes will go. They're always resolving to do something. (more…)
We love mulch, but why not fill empty space with something green and living?
Don't get us wrong. We love mulches of all sorts. But one kind of mulch we've seen too much of is beauty bark. You know what we're talking about. That chipped or shredded bark often bought in bags, sometimes sold in bulk, that's used to cover bare ground around trees, in various landscape beds, and other open space. It's become a suburban American cliche.
The stuff can often be attractive, sure; and give off a delicate scent, especially if it contains cedar. It does what mulch is supposed to do: keep down weeds, slow moisture evaporation, prevent run-off from heavy rain. And it does break down and add organic matter to your soil. But it doesn't necessarily do these things as effectively as other mulches. Weeds can often find a way through chunks of bark and the acidic nature of most barks means you'll have to monitor and adjust soil pH for the plants around it. And beauty bark is expensive, unless you live near a sawmill and can get it for free. And it needs replacing from time to time. The biggest argument we have against beauty bark? It doesn't flower. (more…)
Gardening isn't over until the ground freezes.
For a lot of us, November marks the end of our outdoor gardening season. There's still puttering to do: cleaning and oiling tools to be put away for the winter, bringing indoors any potted plants we may still have outside, trimming back and protecting roses; that kind of thing. Often we'll wait for a sunny (relatively) warm day to do these things. But as all of us have heard said — thank-you, Coach Kruger! — it ain't over 'til it's over. And in gardening, that means it ain't over until the ground freezes, no matter what the calendar says.
How so? As long as you can get a spade in the ground, the ground can still be worked. That means you can still plant bulbs for spring blooming. Lots of experts will tell you that bulbs need to be planted around the time of the first frost and several weeks ahead of the ground freezing. We've found that this isn't necessarily true. Bulbs planted well after the first frost will do quite well as long as the freeze is gradual and not the result of a sudden and prolonged cold snap. The main thing here is to avoid over watering. Everyone knows bulbs don't like wet feet. When the solid freeze comes you don't want your bulbs to be too damp which may cause them to be damaged. (more…)

Cause unknown in Lombard Avenue fire in Oak Park
By Devin Rose
The Oak Park Fire Department is still investigating what caused a fire last week that destroyed a house in the 800 block of North Lombard Avenue and kept firefighters at the scene until the next morning.
Battalion Chief Kevin Wiley said Monday that, due to the home's deterioration in the Jan. 23 blaze, firefighters still can't get in safely to investigate. He did not know how long it would be until they could get back in.
"It's mainly up to the insurance company now," he said.
Visible flames were seen on both floors of the home after the fire started around 4 p.m. It took about five hours to subdue, and firefighters stayed at the home through the night to make sure the blaze did not rekindle.
No one was injured, but three other people were evacuated from neighboring homes because of the threat of building collapse. Crews were seen forcing entry into one home by smashing in the front door and evacuating an elderly woman from the home on the other side. Those two homes sustained minor damage. Wiley said the residents were allowed back in on Thursday.
Wiley did not know where the home's female owner was currently staying. She was not home when the fire started. It is still undetermined whether the fire is suspicious in nature.
Eight other municipalities assisted the Oak Park Fire Department.

Traffic hackers hit red light
If you've ever been stuck in traffic longing for a magic box that could turn all your red lights to green, beware: Acting on that fantasy became a federal crime this week.
The Safe Intersections Act, part of the transit bill signed Wednesday by President Bush, makes it a misdemeanor for unauthorized users to wield a "traffic signal pre-emption transmitter," a special remote control used by police, firefighters and ambulance drivers to change traffic lights to green as they approach an intersection.

Leno hits a high note with Kim K., Oprah and moreThursday night may have been Jay Leno's second time leaving "The Tonight Show," but it was more heartwarming than the first. It was also more impressive in ratings. According to NBC, Leno's final "Tonight Show" episode had its highest overnight ratings since March 2009, when President Obama became the first sitting president to appear on a late-night talk show. When we start talking overall viewers, Leno pulled in the highest number he's had since 1998 with 14.6 million watching. Sandra Bullock's tearful goodbye to Jay LenoLike a lot of us, Sandra Bullock doesn't have the easiest time saying goodbye. The "Gravity" Oscar nominee was part of the guest roster for Jay Leno's final week as host of "The Tonight Show," and when she made her appearance on Wednesday night she struggled to keep from crying. Watch: New promos for 'Tonight' and 'Late Night'Next month, Jimmy Fallon will be stepping into a late-night tradition while Seth Meyers tries to just keep his act together. At least, that's what we got from NBC's two promos for their new late-night lineup, which will see Fallon move from "Late Night" to "Tonight" and Meyers move from his weekend "Saturday Night Live" gig to a desk job on "Late Night." Up all night to get turkey? So was Jimmy FallonWhile you were in a food coma Thursday, Jimmy Fallon still had to go to work. But on the plus side, he had Rashida Jones and Carrie Underwood there to keep him company - and the trio got a little silly. (Maybe it was all the tryptophan?) Overheard: Letterman's 'Late Night' advice to Seth MeyersDavid Letterman has been in the late-night game for years - he just celebrated an anniversary, as a matter of fact - so newcomer Seth Meyers would be wise to listen. On Tuesday night's "Late Show," the future host of "Late Night" sat down with Letterman, who offered Meyers some advice. Miley Cyrus has talents outside of twerking, licking thingsContrary to popular belief, Miley Cyrus doesn't get around town by twerking her way there. That seems like part of the reason Cyrus avoided twerking - or licking things - on "Saturday Night Live" over the weekend. The 20-year-old singer/actress told Jimmy Fallon on "Late Night" Tuesday that she wanted to send the message that she does, in fact, have other talents outside of what she's shown in her latest music videos. |

US Drone Strike Kills Three Near Yemeni Capital
Third Drone Strike in As Many Days as US Continues Escalation
The escalation of US drone strikes against Yemen continues today, with yet another US drone strike destroying a car just outside of the capital city of Sanaa and killing three "suspects."
The attacks come after a pair of strikes over the weekend targeted cars in the city of Ma'arib, killing at least nine people. Those slain in the weekend strikes included at least one "local leader" for al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula but no names were produced for today's attack.
The US has been steadily escalating the number of drone strikes in Yemen, killing large numbers of people in the nation's tribal-dominated interior with the endorsement of ruler Major General Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
The escalation has prompted concerns that the US is going to spark a major backlash among Yemen's tribal factions, many of which are heavily armed and can mobilize major numbers of fighters in short order.

Sperm donor rules need to be clarified in Canada: Queen's University expert
Queen's University law professor Nick Bala can comment about the Kansas legal case involving the government demanding child support payments from a sperm donor – despite the fact the lesbian couple and man involved signed legal documents saying he will not be held financially responsible. Professor Bala says rules have to be updated in Canada to prevent a similar situation in this country.
Professor Bala is an expert in family law and children's law and has recently written about the sperm donoation rules. He says sperm donation rules vary significantly province-by-province. Some provinces have laws that deal with this, but most do not. There is currently a legal dispute involving a couple and a sperm donor in Ontario – which Professor Bala says highlights the need for provincial legislation, in particular for Ontario.

Gujarat Plains
Article Free PassGujarat Plains, vast plains area of central Gujarat state, western India. The plains extend over about 12,800 square miles (33,000 square km) and are bounded by the desert fringe of Rajasthan state to the north, the hills of eastern Gujarat to the east, the Arabian Sea to the south, and the Kathiawar Peninsula to the west. The region is a projection of the alluvial Sindhu-Ganges Plains sloping from north to south and has an average elevation of about 80 feet (25 metres).
First settled by Dravidians and later by Aryans, the region was ruled successively in ancient times by Hindu dynasties and Shakas from Bactria. It passed to Muslim rule at the close of the 13th century ce, was later part of the Maratha kingdom, and then came under British control in the 19th century.
The plains are the outcome of extensive Pleistocene (from about 2,600,000 to 11,700 years ago) sedimentation and are drained by the Sabarmati, Mahi, Narmada, Tapi (Tapti), and Ambika rivers. Heavy flooding is common. Black soils occur in the west; elsewhere there are alluvial deposits and sandy loams. Forests consist mostly of acacia and teak. Agriculture is the economic mainstay; about one-sixth of India's cotton and about two-fifths of its tobacco are grown in the plains. Other crops include cereal grains, peanuts (groundnuts), and oilseeds. Dairy farming is also important.
The Gujarat Plains are one of the most industrially developed areas in the country (after West Bengal and Maharashtra states) and produces textiles, diesel and gasoline engines, pumps, electrical equipment, iron and steel, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, cement, and clay building products. Ahmadabad is a centre of the cotton textile industry. Vadodara has a petroleum refinery and produces petrochemicals.

ORC World Championship - Record entries roll in
Thu, 30 Jan 2014
For the fourth year in a row, the ORC World Championship, the official ISAF World Championship for offshore sailing, has attracted over 100 entries, with the count now being at 129 boats. This year's event officials from Kiel Yacht Club said the milestone 100th entry was made during last week's Dusselboot show by Andi Lochbrunner, President of the German Sailing Association, who has entered his Farr-designed modified Bavaria 42 Match 'Resolute' in the event.
'I'm happy to take part at the Worlds in Kiel and together with my crew I'm looking forward to a spectacular sailing event on the Kiel fjord. The Kiel Yacht-Club and Kiel Sailing City have gained an excellent reputation. Over 100 entries from 15 nations at this point is an evidence of the trust that the sailors place in an excellent organization team and a first-class sailing area in Kiel. I wish the event every success!'
Just in these last few days since Lochbrunner's entry, and in the last week before the rise in the entry fees, the number of teams from 15 nations multiplied rapidly, according to Ecky von der Mosel, event chairman from Kiel YC. If all make it to Kiel to compete, this will be a new record number of entries, currently held by the 2012 Helsinki Worlds with 124 boats.
'While we were confident we could attract this many entries, we are extremely pleased to have reached this milestone so early,' said von der Mosel. 'This reflects the high reputation of Kiel as a location for international offshore sailing. Moreover, the quality of the entries is outstanding. So far 60% of the first, second, or third-placed podium finishers from the European or World Championships of the past two years have already signed up for Kiel. Amongst them are three TP52's who are guaranteed to produce exciting high-speed racing.'
Other news is that after the end of this week on Friday, 31 January, the early entry discount will expire on entry fees to this event, being held at Kiel YC over 2-9 August. Those interested in attending are urged to sign up this week and take advantage of the discount offered until 1 February.
All events for the 2014 ORC World Championship will be based from the shoreside facilities at Kiel-Schilksee, and on the water there will be three classes, each racing for their own World Championship title on two separate course areas.
The Notice of Race is available for download at
ORC Worlds

The UK economy is stalling, but not in recession
- 25 January 2012
The official first guess that GDP declined by 0.2% in the fourth quarter is within the margin of error of a flat economy. There may have been a small depressing effect on the number from a combination of mild weather, the public sector strike and one fewer working day in the quarter compared with the prior four years. (Mean temperatures in October, November and December were above long-term averages, contributing to lower electricity and gas consumption.)
GDP is estimated to have risen by only 0.9% in 2011 but there was a big drag effect from the North Sea – the onshore economy grew by 1.4%.
Business surveys and labour market indicators suggest marginally firmer activity as the quarter ended. The hope is that the economy will benefit from global lift and an abatement of the inflation squeeze on consumers and businesses as 2012 progresses. Inflation, however, may fall by less than the Bank and consensus expect – see my post last week – while monetary trends have yet to show significant improvement (December numbers are released next week).

Jim Carrey Drops Out of "The Three Stooges" Due to Health Concerns
Posted: November 11th, 2010 by
WorstPreviews.com Staff
The Farrelly brothers (Dumb and Dumber) have been planning to bring "The Three Stooges" to the big screen for over a decade, but then two years ago, production actually began moving forward. Sean Penn signed on to play Larry, Jim Carrey was looking to play Curly and Benicio del Toro was attached to play Moe.
Then things began to fall apart. Penn dropped out and Carrey now tells MTV that he's out as well. "
I think it's dead,
" he revealed. "
It's dead at least with me.
He went on to explain that he's worried that the weight he'll have to gain may actually jeopardize his health. "
I don't really want to do anything halfway, and I don't feel like a fat suit does it,
" said Carrey. "
I started experimenting with it a little bit, and I gained 35, 40 pounds. I wanted to gain another 30, 40. When you're [Robert] De Niro in your 20s or early 30s, you can kind of come back from that. It's a tough thing to come back from when you're upwards of 30 (joking about his age, he's actually 48 years old). Your body can't carry it or you can have a cardiac arrest.
And the health risks don't end there. He added: "
Put that with Sean Penn and Benicio Del Toro slapping me in the head all day long, and someone will lose an eye. It won't be good.

Isn't this old news? I thought he dropped out of the movie a year ago.

Sure it's nothing to do with your depression issues Carrey, maybe battling a bit 'o AIDS contracted from that ex-bitch, gold-digger of yours... Jenny Wats-er-name? Or the talent you would be going up against in this movie?
I hope this guy gets happy in life. I think he's a nice guy. I think Hollywood has sucked the life outta him (and Jenny drained his balls).

it will eventually. it's an inevitability.
on November 11th, 2010 at 5:08:47 PM
Good, he would of ruined it. And I'm sure this will get made, and f*ck yeah, bring Gibson in on this. It would be a great way for him to make some positive PR. He would do brilliantly in it, especially with Penn and Del Toro, I think you have a good setup. But yeah Carey, do the world a favor make more drama's in the vein of The Man on the Moon, or just go home and live off the fat of the land, and enjoy your money hungry no talented BITCH WITH A d*ck. and call it a day...

on November 12th, 2010 at 5:46:57 AM
Damn I don't mean ANY offense but what's wrong with you people? Mel Gibsons okay, but honestly? Bring him on and this movie will bomb like f*cking hell.
But don't worry, I'll keep my response less "little bitchy" and say, I think it could be interesting if that ever happened. :) Sure it would goofy though

UK retailer Asda will no longer stock the Wii U, its games or accessories across its 555 locations. CVG received a follow-up statement from Asda that the retailer will continue to sell Wii U games through its online portal on a case-by-case basis.
Asda had been at the forefront of price cuts to move the console out (of its stores, apparently). The company had committed two price cuts to the console during the first half of the year.
Nintendo could really use some good Wii U news soon. The Asda departure comes after publishers have begun publicly addressing the lack of Wii U sales, which have forced them to delay one-time exclusives (Ubisoft), to get them on multiple consoles (Square Enix) or make rational business decisions (EA) – but there are always bizarre exceptions.

Financial statement analysis is sometimes incorrectly viewed as only the computation of a set of financial ratios, i.e. divide financial statement numbers by other numbers within the financial statement. This approach often fails to lead to concrete conclusions. Two computational methods are best employed: Ratio analysis coupled with common size financial statements should be the first steps in any comprehensive financial statement analysis. They are relatively easy to prepare, as long as you have the data, and they are easy to use.

MERCED, California (KFSN) -- A distribution center is Merced is ending its operations, and laying off dozens of people.
Directory Distributing Associates is a Missouri-based company that delivers telephone directories, catalogs, and other products across the country. But now the company is ending its operations in Merced and laying off more than 40 employees.
Workers ABC30 spoke with say a new company is taking over, but many of them are still losing their jobs.
Alvin Bibbs has traveled the state delivering phone books for Directory Distributing Associates for the past eight years. Now he's preparing to transfer halfway across the country.
"I'm opting to go to Texas if they'll have me in Texas," Bibbs said. "If not, then I'll stay in California and unfortunately join unemployment, which I don't want to do. I can't live off of it, I can't pay my bills off of it, but we have to do what we have to do."
Bibbs says news of the layoffs has devastated many of the employees at the Merced facility.
"Let's just say morale is at an all-time low because some of these people have been here over 25 years," Bibbs said. "That's a lot of time and dedication to the company, and it's not that the company let us down, it's just the nature of the business."
The company notified city officials that it plans to end operations later this month, leaving 42 people jobless.
Frank Quintero said, "Obviously it affects the lives of the employees who are there, but also it will have an impact on the community, and it's just going to be one more item we're going to have to work harder on to bring in new industry to the community."
Worknet of Merced County has already sent a rapid response team to the facility, which happens to be right next door.
Jacqueline Walther-Parnell said, "We give them a packet of information, workshops they can attend here, the fact they can come in here and use our computers, fax machines, etc to do job search."
Walther-Parnell says Worknet also offers a skills assessment and help with job training for those now facing an uncertain future. She said, "When you look at the state that we're in, no one can afford to be out of work."
ABC30 reached out to Directory Distributing Associates, but they did not return our calls. We did speak with a representative from Product Development Corporation. He confirmed his company is taking over the contract for services Directory Distributing Associates has been providing throughout California. But he could not say how many of the laid off employees will be hired when that happens next month.

Since I can't start my own thread with less than 20 posts, I think I should post my questions here. What I am about to say is true. Is about my experience with the Chi energy. I felt the Chi energy traveling through my body from spinal cord to my crown (burning sensation as if I was on fire). I have developed the third eyes the so called (a very intense bluish light developed in between my eyes, even when my eyes were open). I felt the pressure. Intense ringing sound I could hear from within me. Naturally, I could hear my own breath. A very strong and intense sense of inner awareness. What did I do? Nothing. I didn't do anything at least on the conscious level. I was asleep. I experienced the Chi only after I was awakened from a dream. I dream I was one of the 4 brothers back in the Han dynasty. I was at the bottom of a hill. I did some acrobatic moves (twisting and flipping through the air) and landed. When I landed, my eye sight was at my navel area. My theory is that I have been meditating unconsciously. This happened when I was 18. I am now in my 30s. I got laid off recently and have a lot of times on my hands. And so I want to explore more of this aspect of myself.
After that night, I did some research and realize that I had experience the Chi energy. And so I decided to mediate every night. Just sat there and thought of nothing. I could reproduce the same experience, for about a month. I wasn't able to reproduce it as soon as I started classes in college.
When I was 17 I have self analyzed myself within the framework of Carl Jung's analytical psychology. I didn't have a good childhood and the life I was living wasn't worth a dime and that was why I was in so much in trouble psychologically when I was 17. So, at 17, I have some unusual consciousness power.
I have read through some of the messages here and found them very interesting. Hearing popping sounds only during meditation.
What do I want to do now? I want to ultimately control my Chi, at least to reproduce what I experienced when I was 18. I have a book written by the Chi master Mantak Chia, "Fusion of the Five Elements." I find his technique a bit too elaborate with some very complicated visualization techniques . I tried his method anyway and I could able to produce a very mild sensation. I was say a very weak Chi. I felt the warm, not hot. I saw the bluish light, sometimes it is white, but very soft. I could hear the ringing sound but it wasn't overpowering.
Anyway, I will continue to mediate and hopefully my initial experience would give me a clue as to how to reproduce this Chi energy in a more significant manner.

Welcome to ATS. Based on your description, you've done a fairly effective job manipulating your energy/prana by raising your kundalini (Jung referred to this as a libidinal force). There are natural side effects associated with this, some of which are uncomfortable and almost always they are unique to the individual and difficult to predict ahead of time.
There is no secret to developing these abilities. All you need to do is shut out external stimuli and remove all fear. You can buy and read every single book on the topic, submit yourself to years of analysis, and you would get no closer to your goal than someone who does not know how to read and is too poor to engage in analysis. These abilities lie dormant in all of us, right? The "I need to acquire more knowledge" trap actually stands in our way. Practice over & over until you are in a state of mindfulness of each moment, until each moment becomes a single moment. It is easier said than done! Best of luck in your work.

The clubs are accused of failing "to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion" during their 1-1 draw at Swansea's Liberty Stadium on December 9.
The charge relates to a confrontation late in the game between Hull pair Tom Huddlestone and Yannick Sagbo and Swansea centre-backs Ashley Williams and Chico Flores.
Sagbo and Williams were both booked, while Swansea midfielder Jonjo Shelvey was also cautioned in the aftermath of the incident.
"Both Swansea City and Hull City have been charged by the FA in that they failed to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion in or around the 80th minute of their fixture on December 9, 2013," read a statement on the FA website.
The clubs have until 6 pm local time (1800 GMT) on Tuesday to respond to the charge.
