Sadly my little girls are no longer babies and as such it was time to make the transition from baby sleeping bags to big girl pillow and duvets. To make the change a bit easier for them I involved them in the buying of their new duvet covers and pillow cases. Upon seeing this Peppa Pig cupcake set I was told "Peppa Pig ones", decision made 2 sets were purchased. The duvet set This set comprises of a single duvet cover and standard pillow case. It is a rotary design which is handy when on a toddler's bed as they can always see the Peppa design. It means making the bed is that bit quicker as it can go on either side up. The first thing ...

When we changed our youngest daughter to a big bed she was mad on Peppa Pig and knowing that she wouldn't be happy that she could no longer use her Peppa Pig toddler bedding I decided to buy her a different Peppa Pig set to fit her big girls quilt. I ordered the quilt cover from Amazon and it costs £15.99 with free delivery which seems to be about the average price for character sets. The quilt come packaged all folded in a rectangle and in a plastic wrapper which was easy to get into. The cover is very pastels colours which I think is lovely and it goes perfectly in Emilys room as it is pink and white. There are loads of little pictures to make ... Read the complete review

Pours a clear, amber color. 1/2 inch head of an off-white color. Great retention and great lacing. Smells of strong hops and slight earthy malt. Fits the style of an American IPA. Mouth feel is smooth and crisp with a high carbonation level. Tastes of strong hops, some sweet malt, and some earthy malt. Overall, a very tasty IPA and by far the best beer I've ever had from a can. This was practically mind blowing for me to really enjoy a canned beer. Definitely worth a try!

A: Poured from a can to a pint glass. Had an orangey color and a cloudy texture. There was a half inch of foamy, long-lasting head and very good lacing.
S: A nice aroma of citrus, hops, and a slight maltiness.
T: Tasted of hops, pine, citrus, and some caramel malt. A very Western-type flavor for an IPA.
M: A well-carbonated beer with a dry, crisp finish. Medium-bodied.
D: A very drinkable beer that helps to dispell the myth that only bad beers come in cans.

look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: Orange-amber with a slight haze to it. The eggshell colored head retains remarkably well, leaving a ton of sticky lace behind.
Smell: Floral with a bit of resiny pine and grapefruit. Great hop aroma with no noticeable malt presence.
Taste & mouthfeel: Malty but very dry. Floral and resiny hop flavors follow, leading way to a bitter finish with a hint of grapefruit. The medium-light body and restrained ABV make this one seriously drinkable IPA.

4.38/5 rDev +10.3%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
Appearance - This is a shiny bronze in color with a modest head that showed good retention and left some nice lattice work on the inside of my glass.
Smell - The hops are deep, rich, and complex here and quickly surpass the good malty base of this ale. There's a beautiful orange citrus here that isn't too sweet but more like the aroma of a fine orange liqueur. The stiff pine gives a contrasting compliment to the citrus and a bit of lemongrass to complete the puzzle.
Taste - The big malt base, almost like a DIPA, comes on much stronger at the taste and is amazingly able to hold its own against these huge, complex hops. The pine from the nose steps back a bit on the tongue but otherwise this ale tastes like it smells.
Mouthfeel - This is a solid medium-bodied with some large bitterness that is tempered by the light toffee sweetness of the malts. The carbonation is rightly light and overall this IPA has a terrific mouthfeel.
Drinkability - This is a big, complex IPA that seems like a double until you notice that the ABV is just slightly over 6%.

12oz can I picked up at State Line this past weekend.
A: In my Duvel glass, this IPA sits a rather dark amber with an off-white head with good retention and gorgeous lacework.
S: On the nose, there's some heady and bitter pine with some grapefruit pungency. The balance leans towards the bittering hops on this one. Malt presence is light and is easily countered by some citrus and spicy aroma hops
T: Opens up with plenty of bitterness - pine, grapefruit and white pepper. Hop flavor is moderate with a little bit of citrus. Thin malt backbone with a hint of caramel sweetness. Finishes dry and bitter
M: Fairly light in body with good hop bitterness, soft carbonation and a dry, bitter finish. The finish could be improved if there was some resiny character from the hops.
D: This is fairly enjoyable, the bitterness just might be a bit high for my palate

12 ounce can. Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a hazy amber color with about an inch off-white head. Head retention is pretty good, and there is a lot of lacing left behind on the glass. Aroma is herbal and citrusy hops, along with a bit of sweet malt. Taste is similar to the aroma, it's mostly hops with some sweet malt noticable too. There's also a nice lingering bitter hoppy finish. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's slick with moderate carbonation. It's easy enough to drink. I think it's a good solid IPA. I'd buy this one again in the future.

12oz can courtesy of Reino poured into a pint glass.
Pours a crystal clear golden amber with a small creamy white head that dissipates slowly to a sizable ring and leaves sporadic lacing.
The aroma is well balanced with the citrus showing out up front with some grapefruit, orange peel and some grassy hops. There is a also a fairly big caramel sweetness balancing it out.
The taste has the same citrus hops up front with grapefruit in the forefront, but it seems to be a bit earthier than the aroma suggests with a sturdy malt backbone that gives way to a finishing bitterness from the hops.
The mouthfeel is medium bodied and fairly prickly with strong carbonation.
This is a very drinkable IPA and one of the better beers in a can I've had in a while. Very tasty.

Mixed and matched this can yet like others I am not sure how old it is.
A - Well I got little to no yeast particles so I assume it can't be more than 3 months old. Color is a hazy amber brown with a 1/4 inch of sticky white head that stays around for a while.
S - Smell is mostly subdued but has a nice edge of grapefruit hops. Really nothing beyond that and not really strong either.
T - Well it's not bad the grapefruit taste is juicy enough without being bitter or cloying and balancing sweet cracker malts seem to give it a great finish. Quite tasty,
M - Despite the sessionable ABV it seems a tad medium in body yet still tasty.
Overall this beer seems pretty good probably great fresh. Not terrible old though.

Poured from 12oz can into a pint glass.
Appearance: nice orange hue with a moderate effervescence and a tiny touch of haze. Head is a thick finger of pillowy ivory foam with a touch of orange. Nice.
Smell: big piney, citrusy, grapefruity hops. Just what I expect from a West Coast IPA.
Taste: citrusy hops on top of a pretty substantially malty base with a hint of biscuit. Bitterness is big but quite smooth. I like it.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a nice carbonation and a good creaminess for the style. Works for me!
Overall: a tasty and accessible West Coast-type IPA. I would definitely have this again.

My main man woodychandler comes through with yet another canned beer for me to try. Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a orange/brownish color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is very hoppy, not much else. Taste is also all hops, dry and bitter, not much else coming through. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a decent beer.

a: nice off-white head over a light amber colored beer, good retention and light lacing
s: nice nose of tropical fruit juice hops, grassy, not as vivid as some but certainly pleasant with aromas of pineapple and passionfruit, pale base malt supports lightly sweet caramelized sugars
m: carbonation on the lighter side of medium, medium body, smooth
t: pale and caramel malts provide a base for a leafy tropical hop flavor, malts are a pretty weak, my only knock on this one...could use a touch more grainy caramel for balance and to increase flavor complexity, moderate to high grapefruit bitterness
d: no problem, a solid ipa
single from Grape & Gourmet, Virginia Beach, VA
6//24/2013: The hops I get now are more woody, musty, bruised citrus, and allium. Still, a nice beer and the profile is interesting. Gonna leave the scores be.

Thanks to ibrew2or3 AKA McLargeHuge
A: Pours a nice light bright golden yellow/orange hue with a small fizzy head. There is little retenion and spotty lace.
S: Nice big hop aroma. There is a huge blast of grapefruit and a bit of grass. A touch of sweet malt lurks beneath.
T: This one starts nice and bold. A big blast of grapefruit right from the start. Some malt cuts thru do tone things down in the middle, but the finish is nice and bitter.
M: Medium body with great carbonation.
D: Perfect summer brew for Florida as it comes in a can. One of the best canned IPA's out there.

No dating on can
App- Dark amber orange with a gentle 1 1/2 finger pancake head. Big cling in the glass.
Smell- Little bit of crystal malt with some caramel sweet, maybe a pinch of graprefruity IPA'ness.
Taste- A very well done IPA. Malty backbone with a spicy, fruity, candy like chew to it.
Mouth- Medium bodied with a medium carb level. Fruits with a little pepper. Good stuff.
Drink- I will have this again. A good IPA from a can.

Caldera IPA is my new best friend. And I'm wondering if the can has something to do with it.
For decades canned beer deserved the stigma attached to it. The aluminum adversely impacted the taste, lending a tawdry metallic quality that was the hallmark of industrial beer production. This problem has been solved in recent years by coating the inside of the can with a food-grade polymer that effectively keeps the beer off the aluminum. No more unsavory beer can taste.
Today it's not merely a matter of acknowledging that canned beer "works." It's now prudent to ask whether it's an altogether better idea than beer in a bottle. And Caldera's IPA is a fine candidate for the notion that canned beer is an idea whose time has come.
Caldera IPA's aroma is floral and leafy. The leaf is so fresh it's almost sticky. It imparts a tall airy head of majestic suds amid lively carbonation in a sunny topaz color. The body is vivid and clear though marred by a few wayward flocs.
The taste reminds me of Fire Station 5 with perfectly posited bittering that takes your hand and walks you through a lush garden of herbal hop flavor. Piney, peachy elements interweave from an ideal balance of hop flavor and malty sustenance. And the mouthfeel is flawless - plush, meandering, and exquisitely quaffable. Even the head delights in its own fluffiness.
An ideal go-to beer for any occasion.

12oz can from the Total Wine Palm Desert CA for $2.25
Appearance - Clear amber/gold colour with an average size white coloured head. There is an average amount of carbonation showing and there is some great lacing. The head lasted for around 4-5 minutes before it was gone.
Smell - Hops, apricots, grapefruits, malts
Taste & Mouth - There is an average amount of carbonation and I can taste oranges, grapefruits, and hops. There is also some apricot and a honey/malty sweetness.
Overall - My can is from November, so a little out of date. But still a solid IPA with a good amount of fruity sweetness and hop bite.

Pour was a surprisingly murky yet bright caramel color with an aggressive, sticky head. Big hops flavor up front - broadly bitter with floral and herbal notes, finishing up with a bit of pine resin. Substantial malt flavor, leaning toward caramel malt and a bit of toffee. Mouthfeel was almost chewy - no one will accuse this beer of being overly filtered.

12 oz. canned poured into a pint glass.
Appearance - Dark gold to light amber body with a substantial white head. The foam sticks to the glass and the lacing is decent.
Smell - I get hops, some grapefruit and some pine. It's more of a biscuit malt aroma, though. Kinda smells like an ESB.
Taste - Hops at first, more pine in the flavor than in the smell. Malty behind it. Biscuit malts and a touch of caramel. Not sweet at all, but malty nonetheless. Tastes like an ESB, too.
Mouthfeel - Just a tad heavier than medium bodied. Feels heavier because of low carbonation. Has the feel of an ESB, too!
Overall - Not as hoppy as I would like from an IPA. Better than the other Caldera beer I've had, though. Not something I'd look for.

Pours a hazy orangish amber with 1/4" of dense, foamy, white head that has great retention. The nose has notes of bready malt, pineapple, and grapefruit with a faint flora aroma. The taste is bready and malty up front with a nice blend of hop characters ranging from pineapple, grapefruit-citrus, and faint pine. The flavors are very well blended. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, well carbonated, and very refreshing.
This is delicious and very easily drinkable. I could put away a lot of these especially since the bitterness from the hops isn't overpowering like in some IPAs so no diminishing returns here.

So...not only does ThirstyHopHead agree to send me two bottles of the 2008 Abyss in a recent trade, but he drops three beers I've never heard of in as extras. Including Caldera IPA. Not only never heard of the brew, no clue the brewery even existed.
The pour is the initial use of a Flying Fish glass that marcpal sent me recently. Clearly he read my mind about the need for smaller glasses in the house. Thanks Marc!
The 12 oz. goes into the tulip with about an ounce or so to spare. The smell knocks me for a loop, a bitter, disgusted, angry, fucked-up hophead's dream searing my nostrils. I was kind of looking at this as a nice, gentle way to start off the night. What did I get myself into?
Ah, I see. I got myself into a kick-ass IPA I've never heard of before. The taste is aggressively hopped, pleasantly oily, bitter, sharp, clean, & all the things a good IPA claims to be. Wow. First-class IPA. Really, really good.
I could drink these all night.
Thanks Mr. Hophead, I am going to put this on my wants list hoping people will drop a can or two in as extras. The only thing preventing me from trading for it is the existence of a local brew, Surly Furious, maybe you've heard of it. This is...almost...no. I can't even type it. It's close. Great beer.

Can pours a chill hazed medium amber body with a creamy two finger beige head. Good retention and some sticky patch lace.
Bold aroma of pine and tropical citrus. Tangerine and mango come to mind. Undertones of melting caramel.
Creamy medium body is nicely carbonated. Hop resins are felt on the tongue.
Taste has a dominant pine and grapefruit rind bitterness. Solid caramel malt backbone supports the aggressive hops. Some of the tropical citrusy notes of the aroma emerge as it warms. Finishes dry and bitter.
Topnotch! Nicely balanced and very tasty.

A deep rusty amber color with a muscular off-white pillow of foam on top and plentiful lacing. The aroma is a somewhat light but tasteful blend of allspice and leafy pine hops. The flavor brings a nice blend of pine hops and nutty bright malt sweetness. There's a hint of orange citrus bite but overall this is a fairly mellow, highly drinkable IPA with solid hop action and generally enjoyable flavor. Medium bodied with a luscious feel.

Effexor XR (venlafaxine) for Depression: People either love Effexor or hate it. I am on the side of adoration. I am 18 years old and have been taking Effexor for 4 years and the change I experienced was amazing. I have a long family history of depression and a generalized anxiety disorder, and it doesn't help when you're trying to go through puberty and are constantly being told that everybody your age is going through the same thing. The side effects are not pleasant, I used to get headaches, my blood pressure increased (but with exercise it can be managed), and get lightheaded and faint more often. Even with these, I still am happy and am grateful for Effexor.

venlafaxine for Panic Disorder: My first dose of 37.5 mg I experienced a surge of adrenaline, dizziness, nausea, sweating, jittery, shakiness. Symptoms started 2 hours after dose lasting about 2-4 hours. Each day the symptoms lessened and disappeared quicker. I have only been on this for 2 weeks but I do feel more optimistic and upbeat so far despite side effects.

Effexor (venlafaxine) for Depression: I am a 49 year old female who was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. I am taking Risperidone 2 mg a day with 75 mg of Effexor. I was severely depressed and suicidal everyday. Lexapro made me extremely anxious and nervous. I think 75 mg of Effexor is helping a lot. I am now not as depressed or suicidal. I am now regaining my energy and interest back. For everyone who struggle with depression/bipolar out there: don't give up HOPE. Things will get better and you will recover. I believe that. Hang in there, seek help and know that I am rooting for your quick recovery. Best wishes to all of you.

Effexor XR (venlafaxine) for Depression: I have an unspecified mood disorder. It helps me not have so many highs and lows. I can actually think before I rage out of control so I have much more self control but I still have panic attacks and in one week I've lost 4 pounds, (I'm an emotional eater).

Effexor (venlafaxine) for Depression: I had a panic attack and my doctor diagnosed me with GAD ( General Anxiety Disorder), and depression, so he put me on buspirone 10mg twice a day with Xanax twice a day too and worked well, then stopped buspirone and put me on Effexor 75 mg and Wellbutrin 300. Effexor was ok for 2 months then didn't work, then placed me on Ecitalopram 10mg/ day, worked for 3 days then made me very angry, so he stopped that too, and don't know what is next!

Effexor (venlafaxine) for Depression: I'm a 27 yr old female with ADD, generalized anxiety (including morbid thoughts, OCD behaviors, hypochondria and depression). Effexor has basically fixed me. I used to be irritable, negative, overwhelmed and chronically fatigued to a disabling capacity and now I'm evened out and confident, positive, patient and kinder. My head feels clearer than it ever has. The only issue is that this medication causes some sweating and raises my blood pressure so I've had to have that stabilized with blood pressure medication.

Effexor XR (venlafaxine) for Depression: Effexor was a mixed bag for me - it was very numbing, and the side effects (which lingered for years after I stopped taking it) were awful. I attempted suicide a few weeks after starting it, because I was still depressed but was more numbed to the guilt I would usually feel. Be careful of this, make sure someone is aware if you feel at risk. It took a few months, but I began to feel positive things again, but eventually I was stuck in a zombie state where the side effects outweighed the good. I tried it on a few occasions with the same result: taking myself off them because I wanted to feel again. The best advice I can give is to see a psychiatrist, not a GP. There is a range of medicines, make sure you get the one that is tailored to YOU.

Effexor XR (venlafaxine) for Depression: Effexor XR with (Abilify) for Bi-Polar, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder for over 6 years. From Lamictal to Seroquel (and all meds mentioned in reviews), by far this is the best medicine I have used with minimal side effects for me. 225mg. With 20mg of Abilify, for me, a 57 year old woman, it allows a full, rich life from a suicidal, black hole. Added benefit (as a woman) is it staves off menopause effects of hot flashes, etc. Warning: heed advice from me please, and others, that state about effects of missed dosage or sudden suspension. This is dangerous; withdrawal is significant. Lastly, generic does not work the same as name brand for me. This is a very expensive medicine.

Effexor XR (venlafaxine) for Depression: Been taking venlafaxine XR for 15 years and all in all found it did what it was intended for, which was to suppress my depression and assist me in coping with life. My dosage amount fluctuated through the years, from 75mg up to 225mg(I think) and I had very little trouble with it, except when I forgot to refill it. I will say that the side effects of stopping Effexor are horrific and a contributor to why I stayed on it for so long. I'm off it now and I don't know if I'll ever get back on it again because I CANNOT go through the withdrawal feeling again, at least not with my sanity intact.

Effexor XR (venlafaxine) for Generalized Anxiety Disorder: My body responded very negatively to this medicine and I had to be pulled off of it. I had a lot of side effects with no relief for my generalized anxiety disorder it was prescribed for. Side effects: tremors, blurred vision, ringing in ears, constipation, irregular period, insomnia, nightmares, light headedness, coldness in extremities, suicidal feelings, murderous feelings, cloudy head, weight gain, nausea, metallic tasting dry mouth.

My medication was changed to 75mg of Venlafaxine, combined with Lyrica and Arthrotec. I have been almost completely pain free for 1st time in 3 years. Was thinking of asking doc to reduce/remove Venlafaxine and Arthrotec, as I thought I was taking too many things and the Lyrica alone was enough. Then I ran out of Venlafaxine for 36 hours and wondered why I was in pain and couldn't sleep. Hence this long entry at 04.33am - Venlafaxine.

venlafaxine for Anxiety: I suffered with severe anxiety, especially in social situations. I think mine was linked to coming off my pill and my hormones going crazy. I tried sertraline for two days and felt horrid - flu like symptoms, depression, nausea, fatigue! I then tried venlafaxine and after two weeks my anxiety had gone. It came back around the time of the month but this medicine has truly fixed me. I understand that different medicines work for different people but this saved my life.

CHICAGO (AP) — There wasn't much else the Kansas City Royals could do afterward except give credit where it was due. The way Chris Sale dominated them, it wasn't hard to see why they sent it his way.
Sale pitched eight solid innings, Paul Konerko and Gordon Beckham homered late, and the Chicago White Sox beat the Royals 4-2 on Monday night.
"If he stays healthy he has a chance to win a bunch of ballgames in his career," Jeff Francoeur said.
He'll get no argument from Alex Gordon.
"He has great stuff. We knew we were in for a battle," he said.
Konerko tied it leading off the seventh and Beckham gave the White Sox a 3-2 lead with a solo shot in the eighth off Luis Mendoza. Kevin Youkilis added an RBI double in the inning, and the White Sox won for the 10th time in 13 games.
A.J. Pierzynski added two hits, and although he didn't go deep after tying a club record with homers in five straight games, he did drive in the first run with a double in the second.
Sale (13-3), meanwhile, looked sharp on nine days' rest, allowing two runs and eight hits while striking out seven without a walk. He gave up solo homers to Francoeur and Billy Butler, but otherwise kept the Royals off balance, with his fastball consistently in the mid-90s mph.
Sale was passed over during the last time through the rotation. The White Sox wanted to give him more rest in his first year as a starter.
"It gives you a little bit more time to recover and catch your breath, I guess you could say, but you've still got a couple of months left," Sale said. "You've just got to keep going with it."
Addison Reed worked the ninth for his 20th save in 23 chances, retiring Eric Hosmer on a double-play grounder with runners on first and second to end the game.
Mendoza (5-8) gave up seven hits and four runs in 7 1-3 innings.
Butler made it 2-1 in the seventh with his 21st homer. Konerko tied it in the bottom half with a line drive to left that just cleared the wall and landed in the bullpen.
The Royals had runners on first and third in the eighth, but Sale got out of it. Shortstop Alexei Ramirez made a diving stop on Gordon's soft liner. Sale tagged out Tony Abreu trying to score on Alcides Escobar's safety squeeze and struck out Lorenzo Cain on three pitches, pumping his left fist on the way to the dugout.

Coyote prime suspect in sheriff's missing Siamese cat
One of the pets that has recently disappeared was Sheriff Greg Champagnes 14-year-old Siamese cat.
I have recently learned of at least three cats disappearing in the Willowdale area along Beaupre Drive, including our own cat who we usually let out only for short periods, Champagne said. The animal weighed 13 pounds.
There have been a wide range of reports that coyotes are invading what was once considered to be quasi-urban areas in Jefferson, Plaquemines and St. Charles parishes. Champagne said that deputies in the Sheriffs Office Marine Division have been tasked with catching coyotes in St. Charles, and have trapped at more than 20 in the last year.
Coyotes have threatened small pets for the last year and a half, Champagne said. The first reports of small dogs and cats disappearing came out of St. Rose in the wooded area behind Bar None subdivision. Soon thereafter, reports began to come in from virtually all areas of the parish, including Montz, Ama, Willowdale, Killona and Bayou Gauche.
From that point on, deputies in the marine unit began an effort to trap the coyotes and we focused on St. Rose and Willowdale because that is where the thickest concentrations seemed to be, Champagne said. We were successful in trapping over 20 in the last year and a half.
The marine division was so successful that Champagne offered to trap coyotes for other agencies.
I knew that the coyotes were not all gone, but I thought we had done a good job in thinning their numbers, he said. I have not heard coyotes myself recently nor had any recent reports of any pets being taken.
Apparently, not everyone was reporting this activity to us.
Champagne found out that coyotes were still a threat during the Louisiana Catfish Festival, when he accidentally left his cat outside before heading to the festival with his wife.
We left for the festival around 6 p.m. and returned around 11 p.m. and we realized that the cat was nowhere to be found, Champagne said.
After searching for the cat, Ceasar, Sunday morning, Champagne began to fear the worst because he said the cat would never leave his yard.
My wife began to talk to neighbors and we quickly learned of two other cats that have disappeared in the same mysterious way in the last couple of months, Champagne said.
After sending out an e-mail alert about the missing pets, Champagne said he heard from a handful of people who had seen coyotes or have had pets disappear.
One reason for the abundance of coyotes is that they have no natural predators and reproduce frequently. And while they have taken and killed pets from yards, Champagne is worried that they might attack young children.
Sheriffs from all over the U.S.A. have told me of coyote problems in their counties and the Internet is full of stories now about coyotes approaching and even attacking children, Champagne said. This is my big fear now.
Everyone needs to be aware that these animals are very smart and sly. They will roam through neighborhoods after dark looking for small pets, which make an easy meal for them.
If anyone has a pet turn up missing or sees a coyote, contact the Sheriffs Office.

Abstract: There have been continuous advances in the field of glucose monitoring during the last four decades, which have led to the development of highly evolved blood glucose meters, non-invasive glucose monitoring (NGM) devices and continuous glucose monitoring systems (CGMS). Glucose monitoring is an integral part of diabetes management, and the maintenance of physiological blood glucose concentration is the only way for a diabetic to avoid life-threatening diabetic complications. CGMS have led to tremendous improvements in diabetic management, as shown by the significant lowering of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in adults with type I diabetes. Most of the CGMS have been minimally-invasive, although the more recent ones are based on NGM techniques. This manuscript reviews the advances in CGMS for diabetes management along with the future prospects and the challenges involved.

Market Watch | Financial views of a competitive environment
Merger and acquisition activity involving both domestic and international transactions is likely to increase substantially in the near term with companies being acquired that perform international services related to nation-building.
Just as the major defense platform companies acquired government information technology companies to follow budgetary dollars, a similar acquisition spree will involve government contractors operating internationally. A comparison between the 2001 and 2006 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) reports and the subsequent budget trends within the Defense Department and broader international affairs community reflects this budgetary shift.
The 2001 QDR report focused largely on transforming warfighting capabilities and emphasized our nation's ability, and right, to flex its military muscle if necessary to protect U.S. security interests. The 2006 report, however, recognized that pure military power is only one component of a broad strategy to achieve U.S. and global security.
A quick review of the language that was emphasized highlights the significant difference in tone and focus between the two reports. For example, the 2006 report collectively referenced the words humanitarian and reconstruction in the context of relief and assistance 45 times whereas the 2001 report did not make a single reference to those words. In addition, the 2006 report used the word interagency 47 times, while the 2001 report used it only once. The 2006 report clearly portrayed a different paradigm for the military.
The authors of the two reports viewed DOD's mission through two entirely different lenses. With the 2001 report being issued less than 20 days after the tragic attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the committee had no real ability to contemplate or even comprehend DOD's new global and expanded mission.
Indeed, the 2001 report was issued at a time when DOD believed we could win the war on terrorism quickly and decisively. In contrast, the first chapter of the 2006 report is titled "Fighting the Long War." Moreover, the 2006 QDR recognized stability, security, transition and reconstruction (SSTR) as a governmentwide mission of increasing importance and identified military support to SSTR as a core mission for the first time in U.S. military history.
SSTR by definition is global in nature and requires a new set of disciplines that have long been the domain of the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development. In the 2006 QDR, DOD recognized the strategic importance of working with these and other organizations to achieve our global objectives. DOD funding for SSTR and civil affairs has increased significantly.
In addition, the 2008 budget request for State and USAID is $36.2 billion. This represents a growth rate of 21 percent compared to the 2007 estimated expenditure of $29.9 billion. Within the 2008 budget request is a request for $4.4 billion in aid to Africa, representing a 54 percent increase compared to the 2007 expenditures.
A recent large M&A transaction to capitalize on this budgetary growth is the acquisition of Pacific Architects and Engineers Inc. in late 2006 by Lockheed Martin Corp. for what analysts estimated was $700 million. PAE is a global U.S. government contractor providing a wide range of humanitarian, peacekeeping missions and nation-building in countries that are or could become threats through an economic, political or humanitarian crisis.
Lockheed Martin has established PAE as a separate business unit focused on international services.
Another transaction earlier this month further illustrates increased merger and acquisition activity involving international services related to "nation building." On Oct. 2, Tetra Tech Inc. acquired ARD Inc., a provider of consulting and technical services for international aid agencies, which has annual revenues of $110 million.
We anticipate a number of other acquisitions in this market during the next year as acquirers seek to follow the budgetary dollars. Companies looking to make such acquisitions should not underestimate the challenges they face. The serious barriers to entry in this space include language skills, global footprint, technical skills and recruitment of in-country employees.

And now it's here and making its way through the blogosphere with reviews and excerpts courtesy of Tours by Elana. Thank you Elana and everyone who's participating!
There are a few strong themes in Blood Crown that I wanted to talk about over the next couple weeks. Each week is represented by a book and a movie that I love and reflects the theme. Each week I'll give away a signed copy of the book, and the movie will be added to a Grand Prize to be awarded at the end of the month. So be sure to check back often and enter to win both giveaways.
This week's theme is
finding yourself
I chose CassaStar because even though the main character, Byron has pretty much always known who he is--but everyone who could help him reach his potential has decided he's something else. But when it comes down to it, Bryon shows everyone--including himself, what he's really made of.
And really, Star Trek (2009), is a lot the same. People have written James T. Kirk off as a hothead, a ne'er do-well. And they weren't exactly wrong. But when everything is on the line, he ponies up, digs deep and discovers truths about himself even he didn't know.
I have been a political science student, a human resources manager, an opera singer, a photographer, a writer. There were pieces of me in all those career choices.
I have been a collector of religions from Baptist, to Ba'Hai . . . to Mormon.
I have been an athlete, a musician, a motherless daughter, a childless wife.
I got on an airplane with my wedding dress in hand and few 5, 000 miles away to marry a man I'd never dated but who I knew was right for me.
I have been travelling from Lost to Found my whole life and I'm still discovering new things about myself.
How far have you gone to find yourself--or are you still looking?

Rome : Michelin's recommendations
Whatever you may seek there, Rome makes you feel good. The Vatican for the pilgrim. Forums where Cicero, Caesar and Augustus are brought back to life. Baroque churches, where Bernini and Borromnini confront each other in a ruthless struggle, for art lovers. Pictures from Fellini movies, figures of Gassmann and Mastroianni, for cinema enthusiasts. This is the Eternal City, where our language and civilisation come from. In Rome, you feel so quickly at home, that you soon make it your own.

Linux 3.11 Benchmarks For Nouveau Graphics
Published on 07 August 2013 08:22 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
2 Comments
We now know that the
Linux 3.11 kernel
a heck of a lot of AMD Radeon performance potential
through the new dynamic power management (DPM) support in its DRM kernel driver, but how's the Nouveau performance? Here's some new benchmarks.
Long story short though, the Linux 3.11 performance for the Nouveau kernel driver isn't too exciting. This reverse-engineered open-source NVIDIA Linux graphics driver is excited in Linux 3.11 for the
VP2 H.264/MPEG-2 video acceleration support
, but when it comes to OpenGL performance, there doesn't appear to be any fundamental breakthroughs.
The Nouveau DRM in Linux 3.11 doesn't have any notable improvements when it comes to re-clocking for maximizing the performance of NVIDIA graphics cards. There also isn't anything else crazy aside from the
Nouveau video acceleration
, which is great for HTPC users.
On the user-space side,
Nouveau Mesa 9.2 benchmarks
showed the Nouveau Gallium3D drivers having no major performance breakthroughs in the upcoming Mesa 9.2 release either. For these re-clocked NVIDIA GeForce 9800GTX and GeForce GT 220 graphics cards, the Linux 3.10 and Linux 3.11 Git kernels (as of 6 August) were compared on the same Intel Core i7 4770K Linux system.
The benchmark results in full can be found via OpenBenchmarking.org within
, but long story short there's no major changes to find with the upcoming Linux 3.11 kernel release.

Russian Fairy Talesby Alexander Nikolayevi Afanasyev
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Translated by Norbert Guterman
Illustrated with black-and-white line drawings by Alexander Alexeieff Part of the Pantheon Fairy Tale and Folklore Library In this most comprehensive collection of classic Russian tales available in English we meet both universal fairy-tale figures—thieves and heroes, kings and peasants, beautiful damsels and terrifying witches, enchanted children and crafty animals—and such uniquely Russian characters as Koshchey the Deathless, Baba Yaga, the Swan Maiden, and the glorious Firebird. The more than 175 tales culled from a centuries-old Russian storytelling tradition by the outstanding Russian ethnographer Aleksandr Afanas'ev reveal a rich, robust world of the imagination that will fascinate readers both young and old. Synopsis:US
Synopsis:Nearly 200 characteristic and colorful traditional folk and fairy tales are brought together in the only comprehensive edition available in English. Of the original 1945 edition, Eudora Welty wrote, "These Russian tales are rambunctious, full-blooded and temperamental. They are tense with action, magical and human, and move in a kind of cyclone of speed....These tales are gorgeous."
About the AuthorAleksandr Afanas'ev (1826-1871) was the Russian counterpart to the Brothers Grimm. He published his first collection of Russian folklore in 1866.

Facebook spokesman David Swain said to Macworld that the bug has been fixed and that no information was shared with those applications, but it remains to be seen if Facebook will notify every user - since the only way to remove these unauthorized applications is to do it manually.
Also, the question is: do you trust Facebook when it tells you that no information was shared? How would you know if it was?
To remove the unauthorized applications, go to your Facebook Account details (top right corner), select the Application Settings option from the drop-down menu and delete unwanted applications by clicking on the "X" mark. I would also recommend editing the settings for those applications you want to keep using - browse through them and see what you want to share with whom and what do you permit the application to do.
These latest privacy changes have wreaked havoc on Facebook, so this is the right time to consider which information could be too sensitive to be provided in your account.

Belk to invest $12.6M in Nashville flagship store
- Jennifer Thomas
- Staff Writer- Charlotte Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Belk Inc. is investing $12.6 million to transform its Nashville, Tenn., store into a flagship location.
The Charlotte retailer says it will expand its presence at the CoolSprings Galleria to 185,000 square feet through a series of renovations and expansion projects.
"We're creating the ultimate Belk shopping experience for our customers at CoolSprings Galleria with this expansion and remodel," says Jan Clevenger, chair of Belk's western division, based in Birmingham, Ala.
Belk's flagship concept aims to enhance the shopping experience for customers, while offering expanded merchandise options and an increased number of premium brands.
This project will expand Belk's existing two-level store at the Galleria, including the women's apparel, shoes, cosmetics and accessories such as handbags and fashion jewelry departments.
The ladies shoe department will more than double in size. Open display fixtures will enhance merchandise presentation and make it easier for customers to locate items such as accessories, jewelry and cosmetics, the company says.
Belk's home merchandise departments also will be expanded and relocated to an 18,000-square-foot space within the main store.
Those operations are currently located in two shops in the mall.
That work starts this month, with a grand opening in October 2015.
Belk also will open a 50,000-square-foot men's and kids' store on the first level of the mall. That construction will start in October and be completed by March 2015.
The shopping mall is owned by CBL & Associates Properties Inc. (NYSE:CBL) and TIAA-CREF.
Belk is the nation's largest privately owned department store chain. It operates 300 stores across 16 Southern states and has a growing digital presence.
Jennifer Thomas covers retail, health care and education for the Charlotte Business Journal.

JAEN, Spain -- A soccer coach in Spain was arrested this week after a burglar who broke into his home provided authorities with evidence that the man had sexually abused several children.
NBC News reported today that the alleged thief called police anonymously, from a pay phone, to report what he had found. He also left three videotapes from the man's home in an envelope underneath a car parked on the street.
On the videotapes was footage of the suspect abusing children, NBC News said.
A note inside the envelope contained the coach's address and a message: "I've had the misfortune of having the tapes fall into my hands, and feel obligated to present them to you so you can do your job and put him ... in jail for life."
Police searched the coach's home and arrested him on suspicion of child abuse, NBC News said. They have identified at least four alleged victims of the man, whose name has not been released.
When the coach reported the burglary nine days before his arrest, he reported electrical items as stolen, but left out the camera and videotapes that contained the footage which led to his arrest, NBC News said.

Discrimination Charge Leveled Against Company Lauded by HRC
BY Parker Marie Molloy
January 08 2014 10:38 AM ET
The city of San Antonio has received its first complaint under the city's recently implemented nondiscrimination ordinance. The complaint, filed yesterday, comes from a transgender man who believes he was fired by AT&T on the basis of his gender identity. The telecommunications company recently received a score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index.
San Antonio's City Council adopted the nondiscrimination ordinance September 5, following months of debate. The ordinance protects city employees and contractors against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity, and also prohibits discrimination in housing and public accommodations citywide.
Yesterday, attorney Justin P. Nichols filed a complaint on behalf of Matthew Hileman, charging that AT&T discriminated against Hileman after he came forward about harassment he had faced from coworkers.
Hileman began working at AT&T, a contractor for the city of San Antonio, in May on behalf of an IT consulting firm called Resource Global Professionals. At the time of his hiring, Hileman didn't disclose his transgender status to his employers.
On or about September 4, Hileman overheard a conversation between two of his coworkers, Ropel Anderson and Gerry Bush. According to the complaint's account, the two men were discussing the nondiscrimination ordinance, just one day before it ultimately came to a vote.
"Anderson and Bush were specifically and personally overheard by Hileman stating their desire and willingness to commit acts of violence against transgender persons, particularly if such a person was discovered in a restroom," reads the complaint. "Anderson and Bush's comments included such violence and discriminatory content that Hileman feared for his safety and security."
After overhearing this conversation, Hileman says, he brought the incident up with his supervisor, Hortencia Morales, who in turn reported it to Ralph Elke, her supervisor. Shortly thereafter, Elke informed Bush that Hileman was transgender and that he had filed an incident report.
On September 7, Hileman officially filed a complaint with AT&T's human resources department, which, he claims, insisted that he sign a document saying he felt safe to continue working. He did this, and returned to work.
On September 18, Hileman says. found a piece of paper in his chair. The complaint alleges the paper contained the word "fag" with a line drawn through it, similar to a "no smoking" sign. Citing safety concerns, Hileman left work and reported the incident to his supervisor.
Hileman, no longer feeling safe in his work environment, asked to be reassigned and was reportedly given the opportunity to pack his personal belongings. Days later, Hileman received an email informing him that the remainder of his belongings would be shipped to him.
Hileman contends that was the last he heard from either AT&T or Resource Global Professionals. Hileman says he was only able to confirm that he was no longer employed with either company when his claim for unemployment benefits went through uncontested.
The complaint points to AT&T as a corporate LGBT ally and calls on the city to work with the company in an effort to comply with the city's nondiscrimination ordinance.
"Hileman is primarily concerned with finding solutions. As you're aware, the NDO does not provide an individual remedy for Hileman," the complaint states. "The City's investigation and ultimate action relating to this complaint will be only those options allowed by the NDO and other ordinances. But, Hileman requests the city assist the parties in reconciling their differences and remain focused on ensuring others don't encounter similar treatment in the future."
While the nondiscrimination ordinance may not provide Hileman with a path to personal remuneration, he has not waived his right to file a lawsuit against AT&T.
