Strong demand from Gulf banks for senior talent
London, April 25, 2013
Since the turn of the year the number of Gulf based banks that are hiring senior talent has increased considerably compared to the same period last year, a report said.
A number of the banks in the region have plans to continue hiring throughout the year, added the study by Stormbridge International, a leading human capital advisory firm based in London.
Andre Nasr, CEO of Stormbridge said: "2013 was always going to be an important year for banks in the Gulf following on from the global recession and the Arab spring. Banks that are competing in the domestic or international markets need to maintain their competitive edge now more than ever and bringing in new talent is one of the key ways they can achieve this."
The region has been affected for a number of years from an overbanked market, during the economic downturn many banks made a significant number of redundancies; however many of these banks were reluctant to let go of their best performers, recognising the need to retain top talent.
"Whilst the market continues to correct itself there will still be strong demand for experienced talent in the region but with a more diversified and international skill-set," Nasr said.
A number of banks in the GCC are also continuing to expand internationally, most notably from Abu Dhabi and Qatar. This has led to an increased demand on attracting senior international bankers from outside of the region.
"Banks from Abu Dhabi and Qatar are still driving the demand for the strongest talent who have international experience," Nasr added.
"A number of these banks have recently been looking to secure talent in their key strategic international locations, such as Geneva, London, Malaysia and Singapore."
This is also evident in the recent expansion plans announced by The National Bank of Abu Dhabi into Asia, he said.
The study noted that banks are still looking to expand into the local region, a number of recent acquisitions by Gulf based banks into other parts of the Mena region such as Turkey and Egypt highlight this.
With the recent announcements by several banks of the appointment of new CEO's, it is a clear indicator that many boards and chairmen now recognise the need to become more global in their outlook.
Many regional banks are now gearing themselves up to make the next step forward, many for international expansion and others to continue to compete in the domestic market. Bringing in new CEO's with an international profile is one of the key ways this can be achieved," Nasr concluded. – TradeArabia News Service

Coroner Says Dorner Died From Single Gunshot To Head
At a news conference Friday, San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon revealed new details about the final showdown with ex-cop Christopher Dorner that left one deputy dead and another seriously wounded.
Dorner's charred body was positively identified using dental records, but the Riverside County coroner's office, which conducted the autopsy, says Dorner died from a single gunshot wound to the head.
The Los Angeles Times has more:
"The coroner has not positively determined that Dorner shot himself, but the evidence 'seems to indicate that the wound ... was self inflicted,' said Capt. Kevin Lacy of the San Bernardino County coroner's division."
McMahon defended his agency's tactics that led to the fire that burnt the cabin Dorner was barricaded in to the ground, and dismissed assertions that deputies may have botched the hunt for Dorner or deliberately set the cabin on fire.

1965 Falcon Futura Wht A great "compact" car! Falcon started out in 1960 as fairly bland, but quickly developed some style. You can see this one has lots of style, a great, colorful interior and dealer installed air conditioning! Under the hood is that 200 c.i engine attached to automatic transmission! Nice, economical, stylish transport.
1964 Ford Falcon Dragcar This was a car built by Barret auto care (Barret, Greg, Danny, Leslie and others). This was the first time the car had been run, and was foiled by a loose distributor cap shortly after launch. It coasted to the finish line from about the 1/8th mile mark. The reason for the sissy burnout is that the car was also missing reverse gear at the time. Unfortunately, they were not able to run the car again, as it was auctioned later that night as part of The discovery channel's "Texas Car Wars" Series.

1965 Ford Falcon Futura This is my 1965 Ford Falcon. I first saw this car in 1988. I was a policeman and I stopped the owner for speeding. Turns out he was adjusting the secondaries on the carburetor. Since he had a good excuse of course he didn't get a ticket. I fell in love with the car and I never sought again until 10 years later. It was a bit faded but I knew it was probably the same car. Now eight years later in 2006 I saw the car on eBay. I wrote and then called the owners and ask them if they remember contact with the police about this car. Of course they did and I wanted to see the car as they had moved away. I ended up high bidder on eBay and won the car. I bought the car during the height of the collector car days and spent a lot of money. I then spent another $18,000 getting the condition it is now. To say that this car is fun and enjoyable is an understatement. Being a huge fan of the Ford falcon I look at every one that I see. I have never seen one that is as solid as this car. There has never been any body work dents rust or anything except for a stripped-down paint job. The paint job was in $8600 expense. The discounted $8600 price tag came with the understanding that I would deliver a shell of the car so they could paint it.

Oliver Stone: Natural born renegade
The director's film about 9/11 is set to hurl him from scrapheap to spotlight, and win him unlikely friends
Left/right/left/right/left. While the military marching order may be appropriate for Oliver Stone's history as a former soldier in the US Army, it also conveys the confusion with which many regard his political stance. Reviled as a Leftie by conservative Americans for years, following such radical anti-war movies as Platoon and Born on the Fourth of July, plus his recent documentaries on his "friend", Fidel Castro - Comandante and Looking for Fidel - Stone has finally won the approbation of the US Right with his film, World Trade Center.
In the conservative National Review magazine website, ultra-Right commentator Clifford May wrote: "World Trade Center may be the most powerful work I have ever seen on the screen. It should be required viewing for every American."
Similar sentiments have been expressed by the neo-Cons and by the ancien régime, about the film, which opens in the US next month.
For Stone, who only recently was ready to be consigned to the scrapheap of Hollywood after the critical drubbing of Alexander - which provoked middle America to stay away in droves over its depiction of historical homosexuality - this is like getting a second chance. But it also presents him with a problem.
In spite of the provocative nature of many of his movies - the labyrinthine conspiracy theories of JFK, the anti-war sentiments of his Vietnam trilogy and the apparent romanticisation of sociopathic criminals in Natural Born Killers, Stone has always claimed to be above, or perhaps, beneath politics. Like the old school maverick filmmakers Robert Aldrich and Samuel Fuller, Stone is more of a frontier non-conformist, a vociferous renegade whose films and pronouncements are apt to enrage Right and Left in equal measure. To have greatness thrust upon him by the hardcore Right might prove unsettling.
Political hues notwithstanding, World Trade Center will achieve what Alexander failed to do - to make Stone hot once more in Hollywood. His handling of the delicate subject matter ensures that the film will be a massive box office success.
Starring Nicolas Cage and Michael Pena, the film tells the true story of two Port Authority officers trapped under the World Trade Center rubble in the aftermath of the 11 September 2001 attacks. Comparisons will be drawn with United 93, Paul Greengrass's extraordinary, faithful rendition of events that day, and it seems that Stone has been similarly assiduous in his research, retaining the real survivors, John McLoughlin and Will Jimeno, and their families, as consultants.
Greengrass himself will not comment on the film or on Stone himself. As he has never encountered Stone nor seen World Trade Center, this is probably wise. But he does admit to having a correspondence with Stone over their relative 9/11 projects in which they wished each other luck, understanding "how fucking hard it is to make a 9/11 film".
The son of a Jew and a Roman Catholic, William Oliver Stone was born on 15 September 1946 in New York City. His father, Louis Stone, was a successful Wall Street stockbroker. While acting as aide to Dwight D Eisenhower in France during the Second World War, Stone Senior met Oliver's mother, Jacqueline. A combination of his father's failing finances and extramarital affairs led to their divorce while Stone was at high school. Much of his upbringing in the 1950s was in France,where his mother returned after the divorce.
Stone was a restless student. He attended The Hill School, Yale University and New York University. He dropped out of Yale after a year and went to teach English in South Vietnam for six months. Returning to Yale after a short time as a merchant seaman, he dropped out again.
A Vietnam veteran, Stone served with the US Army from April 1967 to November 1968. He requested combat duty and was assigned to the 25th Infantry Division, where he changed his name to "Bill" on the grounds that "Oliver" wasn't macho enough - and then the 1st Cavalry Division. Twice wounded in action, he was awarded the Bronze Star with "V" device for valour and the Purple Heart with Oak Leaf Cluster.
He has three children, two sons from his 12-year marriage to Elizabeth Stone and a daughter by his girlfriend, Chong Son Chong.
Stone began his career writing scripts for horror movies and made his debut as feature director with Seizure in 1974. He won his first Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay for Midnight Express. In 1981 he made The Hand with Michael Caine but it wasn't until 1986 that he found his distinctively abrasive voice in Salvador. The 1980s were to prove his most successful decade, with Platoon (for which he won the Best Director Oscar), Wall Street and Born on the Fourth of July (for which he bagged a second Best Director Oscar).
In 1991, his rock biopic of Jim Morrison, The Doors, ushered in a new era of psychedelia for Stone, who was allegedly experimenting with magic mushrooms and other hallucinogens. This reached its apotheosis in Natural Born Killers, where his experiments in multi-formats (using VHS, 8mm and 70mm film, B&W, manipulated colour and animation) seemed almost out of control.
Fellow director Quentin Tarantino, who had written the script of Natural Born Killers, disliked Stone's treatment of his work so much he requested his name be removed from the credits.
As the 1990s wore on, Stone became more disenchanted with Hollywood and with the Bush government - "An ex-alcoholic who believes in Jesus. What could be more dangerous?" he once said. In 1999 he was arrested and pleaded guilty to drug possession and no contest to driving under the influence. He was ordered into a rehabilitation programme. He was arrested again in May 2005 in Los Angeles for possession of a small quantity of marijuana, by which time waggish commentators had taken to calling him Oliver Stoned.
As a filmmaker, Stone's rehabilitation has proved more dramatic. Widely read in American history, especially in the murkier areas he says have been sanitised or reconstructed for political and social expediency, Stone is a formidable exponent of the right of free speech and a champion against injustice. He is also a proud American. In his keynote address at The Institute of International Studies, UC Berkeley, he ranged across subjects like the genocide of the Native Americans, Thailand and the US Civil War, suggesting movies should resemble "the great Hindu and Buddhist ideographs I saw in the temple walls of Southeast Asia. Massive paintings and murals telling the common tales, well-known tales of danger, fear, death, heroes, elephants, love, the birth of children and new kings, new dreams."
Meanwhile, World Trade Center, described by Fox News commentator Cal Smith as: "One of the greatest pro-American, pro-family, pro-faith, pro-male, flag-waving, God Bless America films you will ever see," has once again shoved America's greatest renegade filmmaker back on to centre stage. But in the likelihood that the Right now feel they can embrace Stone as one of their own, they should not lose sight of the fact that they have a guerrilla in their midst.

The man who admitted to illegally transferring money to fund the attempted Times Square bombing was sentenced to three years' probation in federal court today.
Mohammad Younis pleaded guilty in August to giving Faisal Shahzad $7,000 from Pakistan through an illegal money transfer business.
Weeks after Younis gave him the money, Shahzad tried to explode a car bomb in the middle of Times Square last year.
Shahzad was caught fleeing the country, later pleaded guilty and is now serving life in prison.
Younis was also fined $2,000 and must forfeit $12,000.

John Gay (30 June 1685 – 4 December 1732 / Barnstaple, England)
The Man and the Flea
Whether on earth, in air, or main,
Sure ev'ry thing alive is vain!
Does not the hawk all fowls survey,
As destin'd only for his prey?
And do not tyrants, prouder things,
Think men were born for slaves to kings?
When the crab views the pearly strands,
Or Tagus bright with golden sands,
Or crawls beside the coral grove,
And hears the ocean roll above,
'Nature is too profuse,' says he,
'Who gave all these to pleasure me!'
When bord'ring pinks and roses bloom,
And ev'ry garden breathes perfume,
When peaches glow with sunny dyes
Like Laura's cheek when blushes rise,
When with huge figs the branches bend,
When clusters from the vine depend,
The snail looks round on flow'r and tree,
And cries, 'All these were made for me!'
'What dignity's in human nature,'
Says Man, the most conceited creature,
As from a cliff he cast his eye,
And view'd the sea and arched sky!
The sun was sunk beneath the main,
The moon and all the starry train
Hung the vast vault of heav'n. The Man
His contemplation thus began:
'When I behold this glorious show,
And the side watry world below,
The scaly people of the main,
The beasts that range the wood or plain,
The wing'd inhabitants of air,
The day, the night, the various year,
And know all these by heav'n design'd
As gifts to pleasure human kind,
I cannot raise my worth too high;
Of what vast consequence am I!'
'Not of th'importance you suppose,'
Replies a Flea upon his nose;
'Be humble; learn thyself to scan;
Know, pride was never made for Man.
'Tis vanity that swells thy mind.
What, heav'n and earth for thee design'd!
For thee! made only for our need,
That more important Fleas might feed.'

Immediately north of Nusa Dua enclave is the peninsula of Tanjung Benoa that includes less exclusive hotels and Benoa village. A multi-denominational area, it includes a mosque, and Chinese and Hindu temples in close proximity. Much of the beach's sand was eroded away following the mining of the nearby barrier reef for construction materials. Benoa Harbour is also located here for yachts and small ships.

It's bad enough to have to be tested for dementia. It's even worse if the test isn't fair.

Help, I forgot my username and/or password
Egypt's central bank has said that a $2bn loan from Qatar arrived in December, suggesting that the money had already been eaten up defending the currency before the foreign reserves crisis became public late last year.
News of the Qatari loan broke this week, and markets assumed that Egypt therefore had a cushion that would allow it to keep the pound's depreciation orderly, supporting Egyptian assets.
Political strife in late November and early December set off a rush to convert Egyptian pounds to dollars, sending the currency to record lows on concerns the government might devalue or bring in capital controls.
The central bank, which has spent more than $20bn defending the pound in the two years since Egypt's popular uprising, said on December 29 that its foreign reserves had reached a "minimum and critical limit" and announced a new currency regime as it struggled to stabilise the pound.
But on Sunday the bank said Egypt's foreign reserves had fallen in December by only $21m, to $15.015bn.
Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim al-Thani announced on Tuesday that Qatar had lent the country $2bn and given it an extra $500m outright.
Asked by email on Thursday if the deposit arrived in January or December, Nidal Assar, the bank's sub-governor for investment and foreign relations, replied: "December".
Analysts said that the Qatari deposit's arrival in December indicated that switching out of pounds and into dollars had been much greater than thought over the last few weeks.
"That shows the scale of dollarisation in December and explains the shift to auctions on the part of the central bank," said Said Hirsh, an economist with Maplecroft.
Egypt has been negotiating a $4.8bn loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to deal with the crisis and expects an IMF team to visit Cairo in two to three weeks.
The loan agreement was approved in principle in November, but political turmoil in December forced the government to delay a series of austerity measures deemed necessary to win the IMF board's final approval.
"Without Qatari aid, Egypt was on course for a full-blown financial crisis and, perhaps, a forced deal with the IMF by February," Hirsh said.
Egypt's ambassador to Turkey said Ankara had transferred $500m into Egyptian coffers on Thursday, the Egyptian state news agency said.

June 27, 2013 - Love this bracelet. I wear it everyday as my son is currently deployed. Only complaint is that the yellow coloring on the ribbon wears off easily and the ring holding the ribbon charm on is weak. My ribbon fell off once but luckily I found it. Replaced it with something stronger and I can once again wear it everyday. Bless our Troops!

THE MOEPIOLOGT AND EVOLUTION OF THE APES AND MAN, INTRODUCTION. Anthropology (Gr. HvOpairos, man, and 716709, a science) is the science which studies the relations of Man to the lower animals. It differs from Ethnology and Ethnography, which deal respectively with the characters and distribution of the races of mankind. When Anthropology is used in its widest sense, as a study of the natural history of Man, it includes all these branches of knowledge.* The aims of Anthropology in its strictest sense were summarized by Huxley (87) as follows: " The question of questions for mankind — the problem which underlies all others, and is more deeply interesting than any other — is the ascertainment of the place which Man occupies in nature and of his relations to the universe of things. Whence our race has come ; what are the limits of our power over nature, and of nature's power over us ; to what goal are we tending — are the problems which * The term Physical Anthropology, which is now in common use, includes the study of the relations of Man to the lower animals, and all aspects of the structure of the human races, particularly the measurements of the skulls.

Look at the detail on that bench!
I want a rustic table with a bench.
Storage under window seat
Painted side chairs
Grasscloth in back of shelves
Same size frames, different mattes
Blue built-in
I like the pairing of an upholstered bench with pedestal tables and pair of chairs.
I like the upholstered bench with a round table. Think it would be more versatile with seating additional guests as a pedestal table, though.
I love the banquette along the wall, but am intrigued at the idea of using multiple small tables in a row vs. one huge table. Something to think about...
Love the wall collage of different photos!
Love the bench and rustic table!

Stacked lineup, reminded me of Swagger like us. Drake-solid verse,lyrical like always Kanye-His rhymes are whack, I could've gone without his high pitched voice. Drizzy could've gotten someone more talented to fill this spot. Wayne-Original verse was much better. Most of this doesn't even make sense. He's good but he needs to put more effort into his raps. He pushes a lot of garbage. When he's on, he's on. Wasn't feeling this one. Eminem-Killed this shit. This is the Shady we've all been waiting for. He set aside the Relapse voice and went hard.

US 5354522 A Abstract Bending a laminate having a thermo-plastic core layer and metal sheets adjoining the core layer on both sides, is performed by heating the laminate and then bending it. To allow bends of small radius to be made, heating causes softening of at least one of the boundary regions of the core layer adjoining the metal sheets, while a central region of the core layer remains unsoftened. The heat may be by inductive heating of one or both metal sheets.
Claims(8) 1. Method of bending a metal-thermoplastic-metal-laminate having a thermoplastic core layer and outside metal sheets adjoining the core layer on both sides to a bending radius of the same order as the thickness of the laminate, comprising the steps of heating the laminate so as to effect softening of not more than 25% of the thermoplastic core layer of at least one boundary region of the thermoplastic core layer adjoining the metal sheets while a central region of the core layer remains unsoftened, and then bending the heated laminate.
2. Method according to claim 1 wherein in said heating step at least said boundary region adjoining the metal sheet which is to be at the outside of the bend is softened.
3. Method according to claim 1 wherein said core layer defines two boundary layers and in said heating step both said boundary layers are softened.
4. Method according to claim 1 wherein said heating step is effected by heating at least one of said metal sheets.
5. Method according to claim 1 wherein said heating step is effected by inductive heating of at least one of said metal sheets.
6. Method according to claim 1 wherein said metal sheets are of aluminium.
7. Method according to claim 1 wherein said laminate is flat before the bending and the radius of said metal sheet at the outside of the bend, after the bending, is not more than twice the thickness of said laminate.
8. Method of bending a laminate having a thermoplastic core layer and metal sheets adjoining the core layer on both sides, comprising the steps of:
heating a least one of said metal sheets so as to cause softening of a boundary region of said core layer adjacent thereto, while a central region of said core layer in the thickness direction thereof remains unsoftened, and bending said laminate while said boundary region is softened as a result of the heating step, so that displacement can occur between at least one of said metal sheets and said core layer during bending. Description A method of producing a bend in a metal-thermoplastic-metal laminate embodying the invention will now be described. Metal-thermoplastic-metal laminates having metal skin sheets of aluminium 0.2 mm thick on each side of a thermoplastic core 0.8 mm thick, made as described in the co-pending application mentioned above, were subjected to bending to form a 90 different kinds of laminate having respectively three different core materials, ABS, PETPE (polyethyleneterephthalate-polyethylene) and PP, were used. Inductive heating of the whole area of both metal sheets was perfomed simultaneously by holding the laminate in the large magnetic coil of an Elva-Minimac induction heater for the selected period in each case. Immediately after this heating, the laminate was transferred into a TUWI press of known type, whose operation is schematically illustrated in the attached FIG. 1. FIG. 1 shows the heated laminate 1 clamped between a spring-pressed holder 2 and a lower die 3 with its edge projecting. A stamp 4 is then moved downwardly to bend the projecting edge of the laminate around a curved corner of the die 3. After a suitable period, the bent laminate is released. Both the die 3 and the stamp 4 are electrically heatable, as indicated. The duration of the transfer period from the end of the heating in the induction heater to the bending operation in the press was 5 seconds, but this period may be varied, as mentioned below. This bending operation was performed for the various laminates under varying conditions. The conditions were selected so that the state of the laminate, when bent, was in some cases accordance with the method of the present invention and in other cases outside the present invention. The best results were found for the case where there is slippage during bending between the aluminium and the thermoplastics core at at least one of the interfaces between them, while at the same time the core is not completely softened. This is the method according to the invention. After bending, at the laminate edge, one metal sheet edge may be slightly displaced from the other. For a bending process involving forming a bend as described above at a location 1 to 2 cm from the edge of the laminate having an ABS core, acceptable limits found for the inductive heating step are given in FIG. 2, which plots the inductive heating power (watts) against heating time (seconds). Line 1 in this graph indicates the upper limit and line 2 the lower limit of the range found acceptable for this particular case. FIG. 1 shows that the optimal region, for ensuring a satisfactory process and product was a heating time of 2 to 10 seconds. These limits for the inductive heating process were found to depend on various factors, e.g. the spacing of the bend region from the laminate edge, the time elapsing between the end of heating and the bending (this time is preferably less than 60 seconds, more preferably less than 20 seconds), and the nature of the thermoplastics of the core. Measurements of peel strength of the resulting products showed that particularly high peel strengths were obtained with the laminates having polypropylene cores. In an alternative process, the laminate was not heated by induction, but by electrical heating of the die 3 and the stamp 4 shown in FIG. 1 followed by contact of the laminate with these parts. While adequate products can be made in this way, the results are less beneficial than those obtained by the inductive heating process described above, particularly in respect of spring back occurring after bending, which could be as low as 2 on average for inductive heating but was 11 heating process. Embodiments to the present invention will now be described in more detail, by way of non-limitative example, with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which: FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a known apparatus, as employed in a method embodying the invention; and FIG. 2 is a graph showing some acceptable limits for the performance of the invention in this embodiment. 1. Background of the Invention The invention relates to a method of bending a laminate having a thermo-plastic core layer and metal sheets adjoining the core layer on both sides, wherein the laminate is heated and then bent while hot. 2. Description of the Prior Art EP-A-0013146 describes numerous laminates which have a plastic core layer and metal skin layers on both sides. A problem with these known laminates is that their deformability is moderate and that even a simple bending operation for making an angle of 90 two times the thickness of the laminate is often not possible without causing damage to the laminate. EP-A-0013146 mentions, as a possible solution, the heating of the laminate, but is has been found that in many cases this only leads to a slight improvement in deformability. Especially when the laminate is given a bend with a bending radius of the same order as thickness of the laminate, it is generally not possible to do so without cracking the outer metal skin. Such small bending radii are used, for example, in laminates for car body parts, wherein an edge suitable for seaming has to be made. In such a case the laminate may comprise, for example, a core layer of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or polypropylene (PP), and for the skin layers steel or aluminium may be used. Examples of such laminates are described in co-pending application Ser. No. 07/759,915, filed Sep. 13, 1991, now abandoned, and divisional application Ser. No. 07/958,596, filed Oct. 8, 1992, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,306,566 issued Apr. 26, 1994 claiming priority from Dutch application Ser. No. 9002022 of Sep. 14, 1990, the contents of which are here incorporated by reference. Particularly described is a laminate composed of a core layer of 0.8 mm thick ABS which is provided on each side with a 0.2 mm thick aluminium skin layer. When bending this laminate the problem occurs that the laminate behaves more or less as an integral aluminium sheet with a thickness of 1.2 mm. This means that, when making a bend with a very small external radius of curvature, for instance, about 1.5 mm, the metal skin layer at the outside of the bend must be stretched beyond its elastic limit. The result of this is that this outside metal skin layer tends to crack. Heating the laminate, as described in the prior art, does not always prevent this and in some cases it can lead to permanent and undesired change in the physical properties of the laminate. Other prior art does not provide a method which solves this problem, JP-A-53144975 (abstract) refers to a processing method in which a laminate with thermoplastic core, metal sheets on both faces of the core and a thermosetting resin layer on one metal sheet, is locally heated to above a temperature at which the core layer softens. In U.S. Pat. No. 4,583,935 a similar method of bending a thermoplastic laminate (without metal skin) is discussed in which localized heating to cause softening of the thermoplastic material is applied only to part of the laminate to be bent. The rest of the laminate remains in a hardened state throughout the bending process. The laminate is heated to a temperature at which ply slippage can occur. The object of the invention is to solve this problem and to provide a method by which laminates of the kind described in the first paragraph above may be deformed better and in a simple manner to give them a bend with a small external bending radius. The method in accordance with the invention is characterized in that at least one of the boundary regions in the thermo-plastic core layer which adjoin the two metal sheets is heated so as to be softened, while a central region of the whole core layer remains unsoftened at the region of the bend. Surprisingly it has been found that, in accordance with the invention, the laminate may be worked, in the bending process, virtually as an integral metal sheet, the thickness of which corresponds with that of just one of the metal skin layers of the laminate. Consequently the bending radius which can be made may be much smaller than with the known processes described, and in a simple manner and without significant deterioration of the laminate. It is believed that the invention produces this surprising result because heating at least one of the boundary regions enables displacement of the corresponding metal sheet over the core layer without permanent damage to it remaining after the bending operation. Following cooling, the laminate is found to possess essentially the same physical properties as before the bending operation. It is preferable to heat at least the boundary region adjoining the metal sheet which will be at the outer side of the bend (i.e. the sheet which will have the larger radius of curvature). More preferably both boundary regions of the plastic core layer adjoining the two metal skin layers are heated. In this case the laminate bends under lower forces. The boundary layer in each case which is softened has a thickness which is preferably not more than 25% of the core layer thickness. In an advantageous embodiment, at least a first of the metal skin layers is heated in such a way that at the same time the adjoining boundary region of the plastic core layer is heated. This may take place, for example, by heating the bending die in the apparatus for carrying out the method, for example a bending tool, up to a desired temperature and bringing the laminate into contact with it so that it is heated by the die. However, if both boundary layers of the laminate are to be softened, it is preferable for both the metal skin layers to be heated prior to bending the laminate. This has the added advantage that the shape of the laminate bend achieved following the operation is also better retained. In an alternative embodiment, the boundary region or boundary regions of the plastic core layer is heated by inductive heating of one or both metal skin layers. From an energy use standpoint this is a preferable solution, and the product is better. When the method is applied to a laminate, the plastic core of which is amorphous, the laminate is suitably heated to achieve a temperature in the boundary region or regions approximately equal to the softening temperature of the plastics material of the core. When acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) is used as core layer material, it is desirable to heat to achieve a temperature in the boundary layer in the range 150 When the method is applied to a laminate with a core layer of crystalline material, heating suitably takes place to achieve a temperature in the boundary layer which is approximately equal to the melting temperature of the plastics material of the core. By the method in accordance with the invention therefore, in a simple and reproducible manner a laminate is obtained that retains its inner cohesion despite the drastic bending process performed on it. This application is a continuation application of application Ser. No. 07/766,272, filed Sep. 27, 1991, now abandoned. Patent Citations

Friday, Oct 192012, 2:18 PMA nice chart from Goldman makes clear the risk in holding long-term Treasury paper at these yields. While a 100 basis points increase in rates hurts anyone holding Treasurys, low yields effectively lengthen a bond's duration, making a rise in rates especially painful. Rates were high enough in the 80s that even a 100 basis point spike in yields still left Treasury owners with a positive return - now that's good risk/reward. |Friday, Oct 192012, 2:18 PM| 1 Comment

Wednesday, Sep 192012, 9:11 AMThe Fed owns about half or even a majority of Treasurys across several different maturities along the yield curve.

Friday, Sep 142012, 7:21 AMTreasurys continue to get punished by the Fed, the 10-year note yield up 11 basis points to 1.83%. So much for Operation Twist - of which the stated goal is to lower long-term rates. Those who believe in the omniscience of the Fed will point to rising long-term rates as proving the QE announcement is already working. The FOMC should have done this months ago! |Friday, Sep 142012, 7:21 AM| 7 Comments
Thursday, Sep 132012, 10:45 AMIf the Fed announces a new QE program this afternoon, one could do worse than selling Treasurys. Bond yields have rallied sharply (very cool graphic here) after the past two QE efforts were launched. It was only after the Fed closed shop on its purchases that yields resumed sliding. It's simple, says Jeff Gundlach: QE is stimulative, therefore one should expect yields to rise while it is ongoing. |Thursday, Sep 132012, 10:45 AM| 4 Comments
Tuesday, Sep 112012, 5:04 PMMore Gundlach: Another remarkable slide shows the 30-year bond yield in 1984 and in 2012. The long bond hit 14% in 1984 with inflation at 4% and falling - a real yield of 1000 basis points. Today, with inflation at 2.5%, the long bond yields just 2.85%.

New food labels help fight obesity
Related Articles
Published: 19 June 2013
The label combines traffic light colour-coding and nutritional information in the new form of "Reference Intakes" in place of GDAs (Guideline Daily Amounts) to show how much of the maximum daily intake of fat, saturated fat, salt, sugar and calories is in a 100g portion.
All the major supermarkets - Sainsbury's, Asda, Morrisons, the Co-operative, Waitrose and Tesco - have announced that they will use the label on their products, alongside Mars UK, Nestle UK, PepsiCo UK, Premier Foods and McCain Foods.
It follows research that found consumers are confused when more than one scheme is used, which in turn reduces their ability and inclination to use the information.
Health problems associated with being overweight or obese cost the NHS more than £5 billion pounds a year.
A 2011 report found that 61% of the adult population in England is overweight or obese - higher than almost all other developed countries.
It also found one third of 10 to 11 year olds and almost a quarter of four to five year olds are overweight or obese.
Public Health Minister Anna Soubry said: "The UK already has the largest number of products using a front of pack label in Europe but we know that people get confused by the variety of labels that are used.
"Research shows that, of all the current schemes, people like this label the most and they can use the information to make healthier choices.
"We all have a responsibility to tackle the challenge of obesity, including the food industry. By having all major retailers and manufacturers signed up to the consistent label, we will all be able to see at a glance what is in our food. This is why I want to see more manufacturers signing up and using the label."

The clerk of West Virginia's biggest county says she needs more time to answer a lawsuit over the state's ban on same-sex marriages.
Kanawha County Clerk Vera McCormick filed a motion in U.S. District Court in Charleston, asking the deadline for her response be extended past Wednesday.
The New York-based gay rights group Lambda Legal sued earlier this month, declaring West Virginia's Defense of Marriage Act a violation of the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
It filed a similar lawsuit challenging Virginia's gay marriage ban in September.
McCormick says the case involves constitutional questions of widespread importance, and 21 days is not long enough for her to prepare.
She also says it's unfair to require a response before she knows whether the state Attorney General is going to intervene.

Cancer was a big part of our last year. This story is remarkable.
Originally posted on TED Blog:
"This was my cancer," TED Fellow Salvatore Iaconesi begins his TEDGlobal talk, showing a slide of brain scans taken last summer, when he was diagnosed with brain cancer at age 39.
Since the moment Iaconesi heard the word "cancer" come out of his doctors' mouth, he noticed something — that the way people related to him turned on a dime.

Rose, I would love to have a copy of the Deer Ridge Cemetery listings. Can I get a copy or can it be copied in its entirety? How many pages does it contain? I would be willing to pay to have it all copied, please let me know. Probably about 2/3 of that cemetery are my family. It would be very helpful! Thank you! Sorry it took me so long to respond back to you, my computer was down for a while.
