DrawingGet Started Sketching with Libby Fife of Valley Springs
Fridays, March 21, 28 and April 4 • 9:30 am to 11:30 am
This four-session class is for anyone who is interested in the benefits of casual sketching both outdoors and indoors. Recording the natural environment through words and pictures can be rewarding and satisfying. This class will focus on developing basic observational skills, learning how to describe the environment simply, and creating sketches from these observations. The concepts and exercises presented are appropriate for absolute beginners and those with some casual doodling time under their belts. Even advanced sketchers can have some fun here. You do NOT need to be able to draw a straight line to enjoy this class!
Supplies needed include a sketchbook such as the 8x8 spiral bound Super Bee Sketchbook for wet and dry media, an assortment of graphite pencils, pencil sharpener, eraser, and pens—try a variety. You may also want to use colored pencils, crayons, pan set of watercolors--such as Koi, watercolor pencils, and a larger wash brush. Cost is $60 for the four-week session.
Fridays, March 21, 28 and April 4 • 12:30 pm to 2:30 pm
Sketching in Nature with Libby Fife of Valley Springs
This class is designed to be a continuation of the beginning course. The emphasis will once again be on developing observational skills, using the tools of simple descriptions and simple sketching, to record our experiences in nature so that we may connect more fully with the world around us. Core concepts from the first class will be reviewed. One to two select concepts will be emphasized. Greater time outdoors writing and sketching (or indoors if raining) with guided feedback from instructor will help to support continued basic development for sketchers just getting started. This class is appropriate for beginning sketchers who have taken the first class or casual sketchers/nature journalists with some experience who want a kick start to help them sketch more frequently. If you haven't sketched in awhile, this class can be used as a refresher course for getting back in touch with some basic ideas and skills.
Suggested supplies, besides the drawing supplies listed in the "Get Started" class, include a pan set of watercolors, such as Koi, where there are two of each primary color.
If you choose to buy tubes, you would look for these colors:
Blue-- cool and warm version, such as ultramarine blue and Phthalo blue/ceruleanRed--cool and warm version such as quin. rose and perm. red/pyrol redYellow--cool and warm version such as azo/Hansa yellow and perm yellow deep/new gamboge
OR watercolor pencils in a cool and warm version of each primary.
You will also need 2-3 pieces of watercolor paper or matboard.

PORTLAND, Ore. —
A Portland man has been charged with attempted invasion of privacy and encouraging child sex abuse after police say he followed a 13-year-old girl into a store and took two upskirt photographs.
Sgt. Bob Ray of the Washington County Sheriff's Office says 60-year-old Patrick Buono was arrested Wednesday after detectives served a search warrant at his home.
Investigators say the incident occurred at a Target store last month. A witness noticed what happened, but the photographer fled before a deputy arrived.
Store surveillance footage led investigators to Buono, who is being held on $20,000 bail.
Ray says evidence seized at the home leads investigators to believe there might be more victims.

JOLIET, Ill. -- Sam Hornish Jr. is the fastest qualifier for Sunday's STP 300 at Chicagoland Speedway.
Hornish reached 178.341 mph in his No. 12 Ford. It was Hornish's first Nationwide pole since Watkins Glen last August.
Hornish was followed by defending race winner Elliott Sadler, whose fastest lap was 178.265 mph. Sadler won this race last year despite an illness.
Austin Dillon, Matt Crafton and Travis Pastrana round out the top five. Crafton is making his second career Nationwide start after finishing third at Kentucky Speedway this year.
Regan Smith, who leads the series standings by five points over Hornish, qualified 13th. Joey Logano, the only Sprint Cup regular in the field, will start in the seventh position.

Is there a solution for the limited time of videorecording?
Studio X Been there............. Gave away the t-shirt.
Two paths -
One - use an alternative recording app (eg FILMiC Pro) that allows you to record at a lower frame rate and/or smaller image size. (Don't know if it supports iPad 2 on iOS4)
Two - get an iPad with a larger storage capacity. If you need more space than what a 64GB model gives you, combine it with option 1. (FILMiC Pro is supported on an iPad3 running iOS 6)

Hello Studio X
I have an iPad2 with 64 GB. After I start the videorecording it stops automaticly by 49 minutes en 51 seconds.
I looked in my settings and there was still enough space left. Although I do not think that the 64Gb is not the problem.
I bought myself an alternative recording app now. I hope it works properly but if the quality is OK. I do not know. I combine the recordings with my video (digitaltape) camera of Sony.
Thanks for your reply

NEW YORK -- Stocks have closed sharply lower after investors sold stocks with abandon, convinced that the U.S. and the world are headed for a new recession.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell as much as 527 points, the second consecutive rout since the Federal Reserve announced a change in strategy for fighting the economic slowdown.
At the close of trading, the Dow was down 391.01 points, or 3.5 percent, at 10,733.83. The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 37.18, or 3.2 percent, to 1,129.58. The Nasdaq composite fell 82.52, or 3.3 percent, to 2,455.67.
Nineteen stocks fell for every one that rose. Trading volume was high on the New York Stock Exchange, at 6.9 billion.
Oil and metals prices, which rely on economic demand, sank. Traders sought the safety of Treasury bonds.

Rats Abandon Yahoo
All Things D et al
In one fell swoop, three top execs are abandoning Yahoo, including U.S. head Hilary Schneider, U.S. Audience head David Ko, and VP of Media Jimmy Pitaro.
This entire mess
-- and that's precisely what it is -- calls into question the tenure of [CEO Carol] Bartz ... who was brought in to clean up Yahoo after the maelstrom around the failed takeover attempt by Microsoft several years ago." Sources tell BoomTown that Yahoo board members convened an emergency meeting this week to figure out how to deal with the mess.
Suggesting that Bartz's days are numbered, "Some speculate that they will hire a second-in-command to Bartz, who might be able to take over for her when her contract is up in 18 months."
The Wall Street Journal made sure to
point out that the exodus
"adds to a long list of recent departures under Chief Executive Carol Bartz."
Barclays internet analyst Doug Anmuth predicts that "the huge management tumult"
at Yahoo
isn't likely to hurt the company's stock, notes paidContent's David Kaplan.
"But he, and several Yahoo Newspaper Consortium partners I spoke to, say that while things may remain stable in the short term, there are increasing worries about what happens over time, as it's becoming increasingly difficult for Yahoo to attract top talent," Kaplan added.
Noting that Yahoo's shares have barely moved since Bartz's arrival, MediaBeat asks: "Is Bartz Yahoo's ultimate under-performer?"
"The Yahoo CEO has another 18 months on her contract," adds MediaBeat. "But if she's not able to swiftly replace Schneider and other defectors with executives who give Wall Street confidence, the board could well move to cut things short."
Schneider is expected to stay on until Yahoo can find a suitable replacement.

Google Phone Store Open For Business
Google: Supreme search engine; First-rate direction giver; aspiring phone seller. Yep, Google has relaunched its phone store, dubbed "Phone Gallery," and is now hocking an array of phones compatible with its Android mobile operating system. The former URL was used to sell the Nexus One, but was closed when Google decided to stop shipping the device, notes
's Seth Weintraub.
Regarding the new store, Weintraub says, "I personally like the compare feature at the right which allows you to to [sic] pick any three phones and get a specification breakdown." Google is presently advertising phones from five separate manufacturers. The phones in the gallery include Android Market, Google Search, and other Google Mobile services such as Gmail, Maps, and YouTube," says Google.

Analyst: Facebook '11 Ad Sales To Top $3 Bil
Overshadowing previous estimates, Facebook's ad sales will exceed $1.6 billion this year, according to a new report from Cowen & Co. analyst Jim Friedland. That number, combined with "non-ad revenue," will bring Facebook's overall sales to nearly $1.75 billion for the year, notes
"It was only last month that eMarketer said Facebook's ad sales for the year would likely total $1.2 billion," paidContent writes. In his report, Friedland said he expects Facebook's U.S. ad sales to total $1.05 billion and international ad sales of about $500 million. eMarketer suggested that Facebook's U.S. ad revenue would reach $835 million, while worldwide sales would come to $450 million. Next year, meanwhile, Friedland predicts Facebook's ad sales will total $3.2 billion -- "nearly double what eMarketer is expecting," paidContent notes.

Google's Mayer Prays For Friendlier Facebook
What does Marissa Mayer, Google's VP of search and user experience, think about Facebook. For one, the top social net is "really different than what Google is really focused on," she said at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference this week, according to
There are, however, "elements that are interesting," she added. Like her boss Eric Schmidt, where Mayer takes issue with Facebook is its insistence on hiding content from Google and other search engines. "There is a lot of content that is being locked in," she said. Despite privacy concerns, "You should still be able to find the information that's relevant to you, that you would otherwise have access to." As VentureBeat notes, Google launched a real-time search engine last year, which pulls information from various social networking services -- "but its integration with Facebook was pretty limited."

Ah, The Memories: IMDb Turning 20
Associated Press
Marking a maturing Web landscape, popular film and television search engine IMDb.com turns 20 next month. As the
Associated Press
notes, the site was also overhauled this week to emphasize video clips and "help fans find what they'd like to see next."
The goal was to "help people make viewing decisions" and "emphasize the visual nature of film and TV," Col Needham, the site's British founder and chief executive, tells AP. Also, trailers and ticket information are now much more prominent. The site actually began as a database program that people had to install on their computers. Users could sift through the published credits of a handful of movies. Needham sold the site to Amazon in 1998. Today, the site attacts over 25 million unique visitors a month, according to comScore -- beating both Yahoo and Fandango.

The Facebook That Wasn't
Adam Goldberg could have been a contender. So says
of the Columbia grad "who came within arm's reach of a multibillion-dollar idea that ultimately slipped his grasp." The idea? A social network for college kids named Campus Network -- then called CU Community for Columbia University. At one time, according to Slate, CU represented "perhaps the greatest threat to Facebook's dominance."
Says Goldberg, now 26 years old: "If you talk to [Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg], he'll be the first to tell you he thought CU Community was the biggest competition that Facebook ever had." What happened? For one, Facebook had first-mover advantage when it opened its doors to other Ivy Leagues. Also, perhaps a bit overconfidence, Goldberg says: "I really believed that Campus Network was a better product." Also, as Facebook continued to gain steam, Goldberg also says he turned down advertisers, including MTV, and didn't seek out venture capital. Ultimately, however, Slate suggests that Facebook real edge was its simplicity. "Facebook respected the Web's learning curve. Campus Network did too much too soon."

Who is your company's Number One competitor? Actually, it's not who you think it is. In fact, it's probably not "who" at all, but rather "what" that is taking away the most sales from your sales team(s).
We recently asked 180 IT salespeople with greater than three years of experience this question: "Thinking about the opportunities you've lost in the last 12 months, what is the most common reason for the loss?" They replied that in 43% of losses the reason was "Lost funding or lost to no decision: customer stopped the procurement process."
Your Real #1 Competitor
Your company's "competition," more often than not, is actually buyers deciding not to make a decision at all. You lose to a "no decision." Your perceived competitors didn't win either. No transaction happened, no value was created; only cost was incurred by all parties involved. OK, so is this really a "new competitor." No. However, due to changes that I'll discuss below, it is a competitor that has gained far more of a foothold on business that you would like to have. So what happened?
Posted by Mark Lindwall on the Sales Enablement Professionals Blog on June 10, 2013
Like many other sales leaders, the sense that tectonic shifts in the dynamics between buyers and salespeople are happening has been palpable to me for a number of years. Researching these changes is why I joined Forrester just weeks before this year's Forrester Research Sales Enablement Forum. At the Forum, I had a number of surprise learnings or "aha moments" gained from colleagues and members of our Sales Enablement Council who are learning in real time as sales enablement practitioners.
A Cross-Organizational System Issue
The seemingly endless search for the right "solution" to improve sales performance feels like a continuous plodding pilgrimage for many sales leaders. What I learned at the Forrester Sales Enablement Forum, and have experienced with new illumination since, is why the silver bullet solutions (i.e., tools, programs, training, materials, promotions, technology) that leaders in sales, sales operations, HR, and sales training invest in really ever meet our expectations for delivering better overall top-line performance.
There is true chaos that exists in the selling systems of most companies. Various business functions scurry to support the effort of increasing sales. My core learning from the Forum was that we have to ask whether we even have a selling system. My realization in working with clients over the past five months is that most companies "enable" their sales forces through dis-integrated, costly, inefficient, and ineffective multifunction (as opposed to cross-functional) silos of investments that have a poor performance improvement yield.

Regardless of a salesperson's conversational skills, buyers have to care about what those salespeople have to say.
So how likely is it that an executive is going to agree to meet with someone who is geared up to talk about his or her product or service?

On December 7, 1941, the Japanese launched an attack against U.S. naval forces stationed in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. But what if the Japanese followed up their air assault with an invasion and occupation of Hawaii?

I'm 34 years old and as long as I can remember, I've never had the flu. Or a flu shot. We're about to have our first child, and our pediatrician highly suggested that I get a flu shot for the sake of our child. This is bullshit. (self.conspiracy)

It won't make you sick, but you may become symptomatic as your body produces antibodies to combat the (inert) virus. Most people attribute this to the shot giving them the flu.
[–]Trainasauruswrecks -10 points-9 points-8 points 1 year ago
Wait. You won't be sick... but you'll aquire all of the general elements associated with said sickness.
So... why not just get sick and save the money. let your body develop its own antibodies.
[–]Panoply_of_Thrones 16 points17 points18 points 1 year ago
You've obviously never had the flu before. The minor sick feeling you get for an afternoon is nothing compared to the week-long nightmare of your entire body fighting off a full-blown live infection.
You should really enroll in your nearest community college and take at least introduction to biology for non-majors, I learned a hell of a lot from lab work assigned. Infectious diseases are no joke, and vaccines are one of the ways we've developed to fight them.
[–]Kweelee 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
There is a whooping cough epidemic in the area I live right now..with newborns and under-three's being the most at risk. The bacteria has likely mutated due to the lack of herd-immunity, making those children who are vaccinated, more vulnerable. I have personally seen 3 friends children suffer with WC..one of them was sick for nearly 4 months. He still has a cough (and he got sick in May) Some of the kids who are getting sick, are vaccinated.
It's still not worth taking the risk and not vaccinating yourself or your babies...
Ask anyone who works in the Pediatric ward.
[–]downward_dogma 11 points12 points13 points 1 year ago
You have obviously never really had the flu. It is absolutely 2 weeks of feeling horrible. I last got the flu in 2002 when I moved from Florida to Washington state and that was the sickest I have ever been. It can also spread very easily so you are putting others around you at risk. I would take the shot over the illness any day.
[–]420trashacct 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
That would be stupid because the only way to acquire immunity "naturally" would be to get the virus itself. In the attenuated version your body sees the genetic material and can then protect itself from that same strain.
[–]skater95 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
I'd rather have a runny nose and headache than the full blown flu, but to each his own.

Barca angry with prosecutor over Neymar probe demand
Barcelona's Brazilian forward Neymar pictured at the Camp Nou stadium in Barcelona on December 17, 2013
A member of the fan-owned club, Jordi Cases, lodged a complaint last month against its president Sandro Rosell alleging misappropriation of 40 million euros out of the total fee paid for Neymar.
The complaint accuses Rosell of misappropriation of funds because members do not know the "real destination" of 40 million euros supposedly paid to Neymar family business N&N, according to court documents.
Barcelona were subsequently asked to deliver to the court the contracts which brought about Neymar's signing, as well as the club's accounts for the past three years.
However, prosecutor Jose Perals said in a court filing on Friday that the contracts shown to the court contained conflicting details about what exactly the 40 million euros were paid for.
And he also asked the judge in the case to request the contracts lodged with football's governing body FIFA, as well as those signed off by Neymar's previous club Santos.
"FC Barcelona wants to express the severity of its anger towards the report released on Friday by the prosecutor for the National Audience regarding the signing of Neymar Da Silva Santos Junior," the club said in a statement on Saturday.
"The decision of the prosecutor creates doubts over an impeccable operation that allowed FC Barcelona, for 57 million euros, to get a player wanted by our competitors.
"Moreover, it is lamentable that new paperwork has now been requested that will unnecessarily delay a process that we have always considered unfounded and reckless.
"Faced with the severity of these events, and despite believing in the good faith of the law, we will continue to act strongly in the defence of the honour of FC Barcelona and its president."

Final Score: Troy 42, Middle Tennessee 13
Murfreesboro, TN (Sports Network) - Corey Robinson threw three touchdown passes, as the Troy Trojans dominated the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders, 42-13, in a Sun Belt Conference bout at Floyd Stadium.
Robinson completed 26-of-37 passes for 259 yards for the four-time defending Sun Belt Conference champion Trojans (3-2, 2-0 Sun Belt), who have won the last five meetings with Middle Tennessee. Jamie Hampton threw a touchdown pass before being carted off the field with a left leg injury.
DuJuan Harris carried the ball 11 times for 80 yards and a score for Troy, which also got a rushing touchdown from D.J. Taylor.
Tebiarus Gill caught five passes for 31 yards and two touchdowns, while Jerrel Jernigan and Jamel Johnson each had a receiving TD.
Dwight Dasher, who missed the first four contests of the season while he served an NCAA suspension for improperly accepting a loan, connected on 22- of-37 passes for 172 yards and a pick for the Blue Raiders (2-3, 1-1). Dasher also carried the ball 14 times for 27 yards and two touchdowns.
Middle Tennessee was limited to 207 yards of total offense in a battle for the Palladium Trophy. The Trojans had 519 total yards.
Troy wasted little time in taking control of the game. The Trojans put together an eight-play, 55-yard drive on their second possession. Hampton finished the march with a three-yard touchdown pass to Jernigan.
Middle Tennessee received a scare on its second series of the contest. Dasher landed on his left hand and suffered a dislocated left pinkie. Jeff Murphy took over at quarterback for the time being.
Murphy fumbled on the next Blue Raiders possession, which led to Robinson's five-yard TD pass to Gill. The 14-0 score held up for the remainder of the first quarter.
Dasher returned to the field in the second period, but Middle Tennessee continued to struggle on offense. Taylor's three-yard rushing touchdown made it 21-0 with over six minutes remaining.
The Blue Raiders initial first down of the second stanza didn't come until their last drive of the half. Dasher capped a nine-play, 63-yard march with a one-yard rushing TD. That score made it a 21-7 contest at the break.
Gill's nine-yard touchdown catch with under two minutes to play in the third quarter gave the Trojans a 28-7 margin.
Johnson, Dasher, and Harris scored in the fourth frame to account for the final margin.
The Trojans have now won 12 straight league games. The last time Troy lost in league play was at ULM on November 1, 2008.

Jingdong Mall Raises $40Mln in New Funding From Canada's OTPE,Tiger Fund
11-13 16:09 CaijingJing Dong Mall or 360buy, a major e-commerce giant in China, announced Tuesday that it has secured 400 million U.S. dollars in new funding in its latest fundraising round at a valuation of roughly 7.25 billion U.S. dollars.
The new round was headed by Canada's Ontario Teacher Pension Fund, who invested 250 million U.S. dollars in the online retailer, and followed by Tiger Fund, one of the previous investors of Jingdong.
The e-commerce giant, which competes with Alibaba's Taobao and Dangdang, refused to give more details about the new fund-raising when queried by Caijing reporters.
The last time Jingdong was financed was in April 2011, with investors including Tiger Fund, DST, Sequoia Capital and Wal-Mart. The company was enabled to access 1.5 billion U.S. dollars worth of financing and priced at 10 billion U.S. dollars in valuation, it said.
Jingdong expected itself to be priced in the 10-12 billion range at May's sales meeting in Hong Kong. That compared with a valuation of 6 billion U.S. dollars given by brokers at last.
Jingdong founder and CEO Liu Qiangdong had indicated to tap the private market for funding and possibilities to delay a proposed initial public offering during an intervewi with Caijing earlier in August when Chinese leading electronic online retailers including Gome, Suninga and Jingdong waged a cut-throat price war against each other.
Jingdong has been facing capital strains even before the melee this year. It is not easy for Jingdong to have scored 400 million of financing amid unfavorable capital market conditions, said analyst Lu Zhenwang. He added though Jingdong was still facing big challenges as it has to continue paying heavily on logistics constructions, and dealing with losses.

I don't understand guys like Icahn. How much money does anyone need?
I realize that very large investors do have some sway with the companies they invest in, but if you can convince a company to do what you want and you know they're going to do it and you buy or sell on that knowledge, isn't that insider trading? If not, it should be.

TEAMS: Arizona Cardinals, Chicago Bears, New England Patriots, New York Jets
Nobody is more aware or in support of the New York Jets upgrading their safety position than this website. However, signing free agent safety Brandon Meriweather is far from the right approach when it comes to fixing arguably the team's weakest spot. If you are looking to sign a player who has seen their play has radically decline the past two years, is a penalty/fine drawing machine on the field and a major liability off it, then go ahead and sign Meriweather.
In 2009, Meriweather put together a strong year for the New England Patriots finishing with 83 tackles, 5 interceptions, and 2 forced fumbles. In 2010, those numbers declined to 68 tackles, 3 interceptions, and 0 forced fumbles. He also picked up a $50,000 dollar fine for a hit on Todd Heap. The Patriots cut Merriweather right before the 2011 season and say what you want about them, they know a thing or two about making roster decisions. He was picked up by the Bears where he played in only 11 games, starting 4. He finished with 32 tackles, 0 interceptions, and 0 forced fumbles.
Last season in Chicago, Meriweather was fined $20,000 and $25,000 in consecutive weeks for illegal hits before being benched by the Bears coaching staff for routinely missing tackles and giving up big plays. Former Chicago Bears receiver, Tom Waddle, had this to say about Meriweather's style of play
"What Brandon does is he leads with his helmet all the time. There's no place in the game, brother, at this particular time for that. It's vicious enough. And when your intent, in my humble opinion, is to hurt or maim, I've got no time for you, and I don't think the game's got any place for you. I did not realize how undisciplined a player Brandon Meriweather was. He comes with two Pro Bowls. And he came with a lot of interceptions. But … red flag goes up when a guy like Bill Belichick decides to let you go."
Also, in case you forgot Meriweather was involved in a gun fight at the University of Miami in 2006 and accused of shooting two men in early 2011. And of course there was Meriweather swinging his helmet at other players during this infamous brawl
Signing Meriweather shows the Jets continuing to ignore character, which backfired on them last year but beyond that, they are signing an ineffective player. Look at Meriweather thriving as the line of defense prior to his benching last season -
The New York Jets would be better on and off the field by staying put with Eric Smith and Jim Leonhard than signing Meriweather and this is coming from somebody who thinks Smith and Leonhard were terrible last season. The team needs to focus on getting Reggie Nelson or even LaRon Landry and his injury history before signing Meriweather. If they come up empty in free agency on those two, look to the trade market or the draft…just don't go with Meriweather.

Mississippi Governor: Church Should Let Blacks Marry But Not Gays
BY Lucas Grindley
August 02 2012 7:05 PM ET
Mississippi's governor says it's disappointing that a black couple was told by a Baptist church they can't marry there. But he also wants to make clear it would be fine if the church had wanted to turn away a same-sex couple.
"Look, when people want to get married, we ought to let them get married," said Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant, according to The Mississippi Press. "We have enough people that won't go and get married. I want to make every opportunity I can for any couple that wants to, to go get married."
Then a reporter apparently asked if that same welcoming message applied to same-sex couples and the governor changed his tune.
"I wouldn't say gay couples, no," Bryant said. "I'd say a man and a woman. Let me make sure, let's get that right. When I say couples, I automatically assume it's a man and a woman."
Charles and Te'Andrea Wilson attend the First Baptist Church in Crystal Springs, Mississippi but at the last moment weren't allowed to use the sanctuary in July for their ceremony after some parishioners objected to blacks being married there.

Top white-collar crime prosecutor getting SEC job
Published: January 24, 2013
Tags: Mary Jo White, President Barack Obama, SEC, Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. Attorney
President Barack Obama will nominate former U.S. attorney Mary Jo White, who built a reputation prosecuting white-collar crimes, to lead the Securities and Exchange Commission, an agency that has a central role in implementing Wall Street reform.
White House press secretary Jay Carney said Obama would announce White's nomination during a ceremony in the State Dining Room Thursday afternoon.
"She's got an incredibly impressive resume," Carney said. "The president is very pleased to be able to nominate her."
At the same event, Obama will renominate Richard Cordray to serve as head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a White House official said. The president used a recess appointment last year to circumvent Congress and install Cordray as head of the bureau. That appointment expires at the end of this year.
The official spoke on the condition of anonymity in order to discuss the nomination before the president announces it.
White spent nearly a decade as the U.S. attorney in Manhattan, handling a wide array of white-collar crimes and complex securities and financial fraud cases. White House officials say that experience makes her well-positioned to implement Obama's Wall Street reform legislation.
While serving as U.S. attorney, White also won convictions related to the 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa and the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
If confirmed by the Senate, White would take over the helm at the SEC from Elisse Walter, who is serving out the rest of former SEC chairwoman Mary Schapiro's term. Schapiro resigned in December.
In 2000, White led the criminal prosecution of more than 100 people — including members of all five New York crime families — accused of strong-arming brokers and manipulating prices of penny stocks. The action was called one of the biggest crackdowns on securities fraud in U.S. history at the time.
White's office also won a record $606 million in restitution from the securities arm of the Republic New York Corp. bank in 2001. That year, the bank pleaded guilty to conspiring with an investment adviser to hide hundreds of millions of dollars in losses from Japanese investors.
Cordray has run the consumer bureau since last year, when Obama used a recess appointment to install him in the job. Senate Republicans had opposed Cordray, as well as the concept of the consumer bureau.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., first conceived of the idea of a consumer protection bureau. Obama considered naming her to lead the bureau, but her nomination would likely have run into deep opposition on Capitol Hill.
White, 65, currently heads the litigation department at law firm Debevoise & Plimpton.
She was the first woman to hold the position of U.S. attorney in Manhattan, one of the most prestigious positions in federal law enforcement. During her tenure from 1993 to 2002, White won convictions of white-collar criminals, drug traffickers and international terrorists. The most notable was Ramzi Yousef, the mastermind of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
She also led the prosecution of mob boss John Gotti when she was acting U.S. attorney in Brooklyn in 1992. Gotti died in prison in 2002.
If confirmed by the Senate, White would be the first prosecutor to head the 79-year-old SEC. Most SEC chairmen traditionally have come from Wall Street or the ranks of private securities lawyers. The choice of White is likely intended to bolster the agency's enforcement profile in the aftermath of the financial crisis.
White's background differs sharply from that of Schapiro, who stepped down last month after guiding the agency in the four years after the crisis. Schapiro worked at the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the securities industry's self-policing organization. Some consumer advocates have said that Schapiro's experience as CEO of FINRA made her more likely to seek compromise and less likely to aggressively pursue misconduct.
During Shapiro's tenure, the SEC reached major settlements with the biggest banks on Wall Street, including Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Citibank. But critics said the penalties were small compared with the banks' revenues. And they complained that no senior executives were held accountable.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United Negro College Fund has recruited a crop of celebrities to drive home the message that getting into college is one thing, but getting through it is another.
The 5th annual UNCF Empower Me Tour kicks off Saturday at George Washington University in the nation's capital. It is co-hosted by Grammy-nominated singer Ledisi, and actors Boris Kodjoe, Kim Coles and Lamman Rucker, among others.
The celebrities will participate in sessions on various topics such as seeking scholarships, financial aid, internships, networking and branding. There also will be professional resume critiques, healthy cooking demonstrations, interactive games, prizes and music by celebrity DJs.
"We're there to give, we're there to impart something to them, but the truth is I always leave inspired by them and by their view of the world," said Coles, who has participated in past UNCF tours.
The 10-city tour will travel through next spring to Los Angeles, Atlanta, Miami, Chicago, Detroit, Dallas, Minneapolis, Charlotte, N.C. and Hampton, Va. Stars who will join the tour in other cities include actress Tatyana Ali, singer Kenny Lattimore, reality star Toya Wright, model-actress Kenya Moore, former Essence Magazine editor Susan L. Taylor and radio host Warren Ballentine.

A significant step has been taken by medical scientists in figuring out and can a liver that is diseased can repair itself and this will ease of the burden on demand associated to organ transplants and this will eventually lead to the development of new treatments for chronic liver illnesses.
Hepatocytes, these are vital liver cells, and when potentially fatal conditions such as cirrhosis or chronic hepatitis attack the liver, these cells are lost, but researchers have now worked out how to stimulate the production of these cells.
The fifth biggest killer in Britain is liver disease and if past record is seen then over the past 40 years there has been a continuous rise in deaths due to this. If 20 years old record is seen, then on will find that liver disease kill more people now than before.
The regeneration of cells in the body is triggered by the network of complex biochemical signals and body's toxins are filtered out because of liver, it is important to have a healthy liver and scientists have now worked on this.
An expert Dr Boulter said, "This research helps us to know how to increase numbers of cells that are needed for healthy liver function and could pave the way to finding drugs that help liver repair."

WASHINGTON — Social Security's disability program is overwhelmed by so many claims that judges sometimes award benefits they might otherwise deny just to keep up with the flow of cases, according to a lawsuit filed by the judges themselves.
The Social Security Administration says the agency's administrative law judges should decide 500 to 700 disability cases a year. The agency calls the standard a productivity goal, but the lawsuit claims it is an illegal quota that requires judges to decide an average of more than two cases per workday.
"When the goals are too high, the easy way out is to pay the case," said Randall Frye, president of the Association of Administrative Law Judges and a judge in Charlotte, N.C. "Paying the case is a decision that might be three pages long. When you deny benefits, it's usually a 15- or 20-page denial that takes a lot more time and effort."
The lawsuit raises serious questions about the integrity of the disability hearing process by the very people in charge of running it. It comes as the disability program faces serious financial problems.
The disability program's trust fund will run out of money in 2016, according to projections by Social Security's trustees. At that point, the system will collect only enough money in payroll taxes to pay 79 percent of benefits. That would trigger an automatic 21 percent cut in benefits.
Congress could redirect money from Social Security's much bigger retirement program to shore up the disability program, as it did in 1994. But that would worsen the finances of the retirement program, which is facing its own long-term financial problems.
The lawsuit was filed by the judges' union and three judges on Thursday in federal court in Chicago. It names the agency and Acting Social Security Commissioner Carolyn Colvin as defendants. Colvin took over in February after Commissioner Michael Astrue's six-year term expired.
The union announced the lawsuit at a press conference Friday in Washington. A Social Security spokesman declined to comment. In an interview, Astrue disputed the union's claims.
"What's really happening here is that the judges' union doesn't want accountability of its members and it's been trying to sell this story to the media and to the Congress and to the agency for a very long time," Astrue said. "And no one's buying it because it's not true, and no federal judge is going to buy this story, either."
"There are a very small number of malcontents who want to litigate or put political pressure on the agency rather than do their work," Astrue said.
The union represents 1,400 administrative law judges. The judges are hired by the agency but are supposed to act independently when they decide cases. More than 30 federal agencies employ administrative law judges, mainly to settle disputes between the agencies and people who are affected by agency decisions.
The Social Security Administration employs the most judges, about 1,500. The lawsuit filed by their union describes the disability program as "a system in crisis."
About 3.2 million people applied for disability benefits last year, a 25 percent increase from a decade before. Claims have increased in part because of aging baby boomers. As people get older, they become more prone to disabilities.
Disability claims also typically increase when the economy sours. Some people who manage to work despite their disabilities get laid off and apply for benefits, while others apply out of economic desperation.
When people apply for Social Security disability benefits, their cases are initially reviewed by state offices, which reject most claims. If your claim is rejected, you can appeal to an administrative law judge. But the hearing process takes an average of 373 days — a little more than a year — according to agency statistics.

Rock the Zoo fundraiser to be a roaring good time

Rock the Zoo fundraiser to be a roaring good time
Flagstaff is one of Arizona's best winter wonderlands. With the holidays approaching, you may be tempted to get away for a few days to where the weather is frosty and there are lots of places to play in the snow. Here are suggestions for your next trip to Flagstaff.
Fortunately all things synonymous with summer live on in Arizona indefinitely. So as the sun sets on your summer-summer time, and fresh visions of casually cool backyard BBQs, patio furniture, and poolside brews, sadly fade, the Grand Canyon State is still shining. And because brews and barbeque bring back sun-filled memories brighter than sunshine, you'll find no shortage of ways to sip and savor a few of your favorite things during perpetual summer season in Arizona.
Route 66 has earned its place in American history, and the fabled Mother Road lives on in music, films, books and folklore. There may be no better way to celebrate that legacy than with a classic-car show and three-day bash.
Dehydration is always a danger when exploring Arizona trails, so it's important to stop often to drink. Once you've had enough water, you will be ready to tackle the Flagstaff Ale Trail.
As these prove, a motel can be a tourist attraction in itself, with themed rooms or vintage charm.

Well, as I understand it, the main supporters are beer companies and the pharmaceutical companies. I'd like them to show me the dead bodies from marijuana. But they can't because there aren't any.

Critics file suit against new Sutter hospital
A lawsuit has been filed by opponents of Sutter Health's planned new hospital next to the Wells Fargo Center for the Arts – less than a week after the Sacramento-based health organization celebrated a ground breaking ceremony for the $284 million project meant to replace the seismically unsafe Chanate facility.
According to Sonoma County Superior Court docket, the suit was filed by the North Sonoma County Healthcare District, which includes Healdsburg District Hospital, the California Nurses Association, Palm Drive Hospital and a group called the Transportation Solutions Defense and Education Fund.
The actual complaint, filed Sept. 22, was not immediately made available by the court.
