Power firm bids to be first to connect to Hayle's undersea Wave Hub
The first energy-generating device is set to plug into the pioneering Cornish Wave Hub after an Irish firm applied for a marine licence.
The giant hub – an undersea socket on the seabed, 10 miles off the coast of Hayle – allows up to four devices to harness the power of the sea and feed electricity directly into the national grid.
It has a capacity of 20MW, equivalent to the electricity needs of more than 7,000 homes, and was created by the government as a test bed for new technology.
Cork-based Ocean Energy has asked the Marine Management Organisation (MMO) for permission to deploy its 9 million euro OE Buoy wave energy converter.

John McCarthy, chief executive, said: "Having completed successful trials of a scale device for over three years in Galway Bay we are keen to progress to a full-size prototype at a grid connected site."
The device weighs 650 tonnes, is 37.5 metres long, 18 metres wide with a draft of 8.75 metres, and is capable of producing one mega- watt (MW) of electric power.
The company, which is in discussions with local companies about support with fabrication and deployment, hopes to operate from the newly refurbished North Quay in Hayle Harbour.
Claire Gibson, general manager at Wave Hub – the world's largest grid-connected offshore marine energy test site – said: "Ocean Energy's application for a marine licence marks a significant milestone for us and is a further important step towards a full scale device deployment."
If successful, Ocean Energy will test whether its anchoring system is suitable at the site.
A decision on the consent is expected to be made by the end of the year.

In Seattle, 6 weeks (one hour per week) cost $150 - $165. It doesn't get much cheaper or more expensive than that. Classes outside of the city are a bit cheaper. I know Petco is cheaper but I've been in the store shopping during a puppy class and from what I have seen and overheard, I am so glad I did not take classes there. But that is just one location. Most classes here only require the first set of vaccinations but parvo is not a big concern here. Sent from my iPhone using Petguide.com Free App

Max and I have taken obedience classes from a local trainer and also at Petco. The local charges $100 for 8 weeks. The advanced class is also $100, but the class may be repeated as many times as you like. We took an advanced class at Petco. It was around $115 for 6 weeks, and we can repeat it if we like. Overall, I think the local trainers were a little better. Petco was okay. They appear to follow a pre-determined curriculum manual. One thing that was nice about the Petco class was that it was limited to 6 dogs. |

I agree with Millions of Peaches, obedience classes in this area start at $150 and go up to $400. I tried a popular but less expensive obedience class and I was very disappointed. There were 5-6 class running at the same time in the same dome building. Chloe was too distracted and excited about the other dogs to listen to me and I left every class frustrated and upset. I took my parent lab to training for them and decided to go to McCanns (the $400 one) which is vet recommended and has a great reputation and it was such a HUGE difference. I wish I would have done the same thing.

Do they get to pop a top after a great victory, or do they simply have a quiet dinner at home with their wife(s)?
Wow, this thread probably won't turn extremely offensive extremely quickly.
Not sure, but I do remember reading somewhere that Whittingham is a BYU alum.
Not everyone in Utah is Mormon, and not all Mormons are as crazy as you may have heard - wearing the long underwear all the time, no matter the weather, not allowed to drink caffeine, all the beer in Utah is 3.5 ABV or less, and so on.
maybe I went to the wrong school in Iowa. Why is it that I can only engage Hawk fans in conversation?
I'm not saying that I don't like Paul Rhoads as a coach. I just don't get why we didn't at least try for him. I just I still think that we should of at least tried to get Whittingham as a head football coach.
Hey, I was right, he is a BYU alum. Considering that their rivalry is much more intense than Iowa/ISU, I can imagine he doesn't have many friends in Provo.
Kyle Whittingham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Why would he leave Utah for Iowa State? He's from Utah. He knows the area and the culture, and knows how to recruit that region. He's just proven that it's easier to get to the BCS from Utah than it is from Iowa State. Utah has more success, recently and historically, than Iowa State. And I don't think Iowa State could necessarily offer him a monetary package that's all that much better than what he's making at Utah.
For all we know, Pollard placed that courtesy call to Wittingham, who quickly replied with a "thanks, not interested." But even if Pollard didn't make that call, I wouldn't blame him. It's not like we had any shot with him to begin with.
I'm not saying that I think that Whittingham would come to ISU. What I'm saying is I'm just dissapointed that Whittingham didn't have an interview with Pollard or anything. Even though Whittingham probably wouldn't have come anyway, I would of liked to hear about a call place to Whittingham or something.
IS Urban Meyer Mormon?
On a semi related note, I believe Mike Leach is mormon.
:wideeyed:Sorry to bring this up, but we remember where LE came from before ISU, right? So yeah some do/did. :no:
I always thought it was funny that Larry's can of caffeine free Diet Coke under his chair on the bench was a habit that followed him from Utah State. :smile:

Article by Andrew Wakefield
Step 1 – You Need To Better Understand "E" Errors So You Can Repair Your Xbox 360You are relaxing with a nice game of Halo or Fable on your Xbox 360 and suddenly your video screen begins to appear discolored or blurry. Although you are hoping it is nothing more than the TV going blury for a second, the game then freezes. This is a common problem that every Xbox 360 gamer dreads – the "E" error. An "E" error signifies when your Xbox 360 receives one red light in the bottom left hand corner. Generally this is going to happen after your system has been re-booted. After rebooting the system you can receive one red flashing light and an onscreen error of some kind. If you are receiving an E64, E65 or E66 error, these are all at once related to your DVD drive. If you are receiving an E67, E68 or an E69 error, these are drive issues. A general hardware error is going to be signified by an E73 message.The most probable problem you can have to deal with is an E74. There are countless errors you and your system can experience while enjoying a picture or a thrilling Xbox game – the most dreaded of these being the "3 Red Lights" ( RLOD ) mistake.Before you can repair your Xbox 360, you need to work out what precisely the problem's. When you have identified the errors, the very next step is to find Options For Fixing Your XBox 360. Log on and check for online for solutions – be aware though that some of the solutions espoused online might not be the right one for you and meay even injure your Xbox 360 console. If your Xbox 360 is under guaranty, take it back to the store / support center for repair. The fastest and most cost effective way to get your Xbox 360 back to work is checking online for solutions.The solution is to read online reviews of Xbox 360 Correct Guides and then decide on the one that fits your needs. To make things simpler for you, here is one candid review of the top 3 Xbox 360 Repair Guides available on the Internet.Step-2 – The second option ( if your Xbox 360 isn't under guaranty ) is to find a trustworthy Xbox 360 repair / service center. Here too you have to be careful to pick an established and reputed service center who will not damage your Xbox unit. Following are some factors to apply while researching true Xbox 360 repair service centers -. Another tip is to get into online forums and / or circular boards to see what other Xbox users propose. Newer firms may be a bit dodgy ( though not really ) as you do not know whether or not they are safe or how much information they have with repairing systems. If you were to take your Xbox into Microsoft, you should expect to pay the upwards of $ 150 even for the most simple of issues. There's no sense in bringing your Xbox 360 into a repair shop and waiting for 3 weeks before you even get it back. You might as well try to repair it yourself if this is the case.Don't be frightened to ask different services how long it'll take to mend your system.Check out this brief video review of the top 3 Xbox 360 Repair Guides that could solve your problem in a timely and cost effective way.

A group of us took some children here and we all enjoyed every second of it! The train ride was a big hit with the children as well as the peacocks that roam freely in the zoo.
A group of us took some children here and we all enjoyed every second of it! The train ride was a big hit with the children as well as the peacocks that roam freely in the zoo.
Enjoyable, interesting and fun! There is always something different to see. They have activities all year round for children of all ages as well as adults
If you do go to the zoo do not expect a large experience. It is tiny and the price is a little high in my opinion to see what few animals there are. It also appears that the animals have very small enclosures as well. With that out of the way, the new penguin exhibit does add a lot to... More
For a city the size of Decatur, this zoo is a very good zoo. Lay out is good, and the cost is also good.
A very nice little zoo, family friendly for all ages. They continue to add new attractions, most recently a penguin exhibit.
I love this zoo! I live close and go all the time ! Right now they have free admission on Thursdays! It may be small but there so many nice animals and now there adding a spot for penguins, outers, and alligators. It's a must to go do!
This is zoo is small it is interesting and have some nice displays. I was disappointed that they did not have any maps at the entryway when we came here. They had to red pandas which were really nice to see they were active when we got here.
They are putting in a penguin house so the place is sort of tore up. You can't get to the back where the zebras camels and cheetahs are. It's supposed to be done by summer of 2014. On a side note from may to October go on a Thursday if you can. It's free admission
Scovill Zoo is a great time for young and old alike. Along with the adjacent Children's Museum, playground and carousel, this complex is a "must do" for Decatur visitors with kids. Don't miss a ride on the train!
Great clean family fun. The zoo has made several new improvements. My son just loves the monkeys and turtles.

Forecasting in the Presence of Structural Breaks and Policy Regime Shifts
The value of selecting the best forecasting model as the basis for empirical economic policy analysis is questioned. When no model coincides with the data generation process, non-causal statistical devices may provide the best available forecasts: examples from recent work include intercept corrections and differenced-data VARs. However, the resulting models need have no policy implications. A paradox may result if their forecasts induce policy changes which can be used to improve the statistical forecast. This suggests correcting statistical forecasts by using the econometric models estimate of the scenario change, and doing so yields reduced biases.Download Info

Upmanyu Chatterjee's - English August
Upmanyu Chatterjee is a well known Indian author and an administrator who has done notable work in the setting of Indian Administrative Service. His novel English August is also a commendable work in the same milieu.
His other noteworthy works include "The assassination of Indira Gandhi" and "Watching Them "which are in the form of short stories.
English August- An Indian Story is a very well written book by Upmanyu which was published in 1988 and since then has been reprinted several times. This novel is an ideal choice for the ones who have curiosity about modern India. It's a beautifully written interesting work which will take you in its grip.
The main plot of the book revolves around a character called Agastya Sen who is young and westernized. It is interesting to know that the major imagination of Agastya is dominated by literature, soft drugs and women. The vibrant real India is shown through the experience of this young officer who is posted in a small town called Madna. His observations during one year of his training are expressed in funny and wryly way which makes the story even more interesting. One can see the realistic trends of the administration which are also known as grass root levels of welfare state through this book. All these are presented along with the paradox involved in them. The brown sahibs who have a ruling power in India are depicted very well.
The posting of Agastya gives him a tremendous cultural shock and then gradually his life becomes a long philosophical journey of self discovery. As the book is written by Upmanyu who is a civil servant himself he is able to capture the core of entire Indian generation , whose urban reality has a sharp contrast to that of the actual India in villages.
The sense of dislocation in Agastya is compounded by his lack of interest that he has in the weird ways of administration and government. His mind is always occupied by the thoughts of masturbation, marijuana, images of his urban life and meditations of Marcus Aurelius. And now in Madna his work will demand him to be a devoted servant of the people.
Though this wonderful work by Upmanyu is funny but it has the humane touch as well. It shows the modern world which is rarely depicted by anyone in their writings. The entire work is authentic, entertaining, convincing, natural and charming. Its classic touch cannot be compared to any other. For the ones who wish to view the other interesting side of the modern India English August is an excellent choice. You will observe immense filth and poverty which are faced by the people who live their entire life in these conditions and all this is shown through the eyes of an arrogant brat. In order to have the real feeling of this writing you must go through it and then you will know that what makes English August so different and unique from others.

Artist plans exhibition at the summit of Everest
Lurie has announced plans to place three acrylic-on-canvas works of art on the 29,029-foot peak. These small pieces are a part of a much larger project consisting of dozens of individual works that has been on display at the United Nations for some time. That project, entitled "Uniting Painting" stretches over 600 feet in length and has been a focus of Lurie's artistic talents for more than 40 years.
While the details of just exactly how those paintings will get to the summit have not been elaborated on, we can assume that Lurie has commissioned a team of climbers to carry his works to the highest point on the planet when the Everest climbing season gets underway next spring. If all goes according to plan, the world's highest art exhibition will probably take place sometime around mid-May, 2011.
Lurie hopes that by displaying his art in the High Himalaya, he can send a message to the world about the scope of his works and the uniting message he hopes to convey, which is that no matter what our race, creed, or culture, art is a common denominator.

Mmmm interesting idea, although... I'm wondering if Everest should be used as a very high advertising tool. There are some topics, like climate change, that are worth it to have Everest put some attention to it... Art? Anyway, I hope it's strong, as the weather can be wild up there. Cheers,

Back to Graphic Version | SAMHSA News Home
A new study of marijuana users seeking treatment determined that long-term users performed worse on most of the memory, attention, time judgment, and information processing tests. The study, "Cognitive Functioning of Long Term Cannabis Use," is published in the March 6, 2002, issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).
The data arose as part of a substudy of the adult Marijuana Treatment Project, a cooperative agreement between SAMHSA's Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), the University of Connecticut Medical School, the University of Washington, the University of Connecticut Health Center, and The Village South, Inc., in Miami. Consulting organizations included the National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre of the University of New South Wales, Australia; the University of Wollongong, Australia; the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University; and Evergreen Treatment Services of Seattle.
"The findings show that there are significant long-term negative effects of marijuana use," said SAMHSA Administrator Charles G. Curie, M.A., A.C.S.W. "Young people need to know that marijuana is not the harmless substance some have made it out to be. We are committed to continue educating our youth on the damaging effects of marijuana use on both their health and their future."
"This study shows that long-term use of marijuana may have consequences for both individuals and their productivity and performance in the workplace," said CSAT Director H. Westley Clark, M.D., J.D., M.P.H. "There is good treatment available for those who are habitual marijuana users, and we urge them to seek appropriate services through the treatment networks in their communities."
Authors of the study include Nadia Solowij, Robert Stephens, Roger Roffman, Thomas Babor, Ronald Kadden, Michael Miller, Kenneth Christiansen, Bonnie McRee, Janice Vendetti, and Jean Donaldson, project officer for CSAT's Marijuana Treatment Project.

Stewarts and Nancy Wright Grave Photos
Nicki, thank you so much for the grave photos for all the Taylors and Nancy Wright in the Lexington Cemetery. I really do appreciate your doing this!
I hope you can help clear up some confusion for me...
On Find A Grave there is a Lexington Cemetery which has 1,329 interments. On the Find A Grave page it has a picture of the brick entrance. Then there is a Lexington _City_ Cemetery which has just 412 interments - it does not have a picture of the brick entrance. They both have the same address description - Lexington, Henderson County TN, but neither specifies the "East-Central Section". Which is which?! Some memorials are in both cemeteries. I think the two cemeteries confuse people, they do me.
I have 4 family member memorials for Lexington Cemetery but don't know which of the two cemeteries to post their memorials. They are listed in the Lexington Cemetery - East-Central Section by David Donahue which has this description "The East-Central Section is of Lexington Cemetery the area north of the wall of the old city cemetery extending from the Madison Street access road to the eastern extension of the access road from Natchez Trace Drive." http://www.tngenweb.org/records/henderson/cemeteries/lex-ec.htm
I do not have "Office" so I cannot open the Lexington Cemetery document which I assume includes all sections of the huge Lexington Cemetery, including the East-Central Section.
My question is 'Do the interments of the East-Central Section belong in the Lexington City Cemetery or the Lexington Cemetery?' ... OR are they the same cemetery and someone unknowingly just made another cemetery on Find A Grave? If so, shouldn't the two cemeteries be merged??
Can you help me understand these two cemeteries?

Background: Treatment with antipsychotic drugs has been associated with increased risk for developing diabetes mellitus. Recent consensus statements suggest that clozapine may pose an especially high risk. The purpose of this study is to examine the prevalence and clinical-demographic correlates of diabetes among outpatients with DSM-IV-diagnosed schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder receiving clozapine.
Method: One hundred one outpatients receiving clozapine at the University of Rochester Department of Psychiatry, Rochester, N.Y., were evaluated between September 2002 and September 2003. Demographic data were collected from medical records, and body mass index (BMI) and body fat measurements were conducted. Diagnosis of diabetes was established through review of medical records and fasting blood glucose testing. Associations between clinical and demographic variables and diabetes were examined using t tests, Fisher exact tests, and logistic regression.
Results: Mean (SD) age of patients was 40.4 (9.5) years, and 79% were white. Mean (SD) dose and duration of clozapine treatment were 426 (164) mg/day and 5.7 (3.6) years, respectively. Point prevalence of diabetes was 25.7%. Mean (SD) BMI was 32.6 (8.0) kg/m2, and mean (SD) body fat was 34.0% (11.0%). Logistic regression revealed significant associations between diabetes and nonwhite race/ethnicity and family history of diabetes (p = .02 and .002, respectively). No significant associations were found between diabetes prevalence and BMI or body fat.
Conclusion: Patients receiving clozapine are at substantial risk for developing diabetes, although the level of risk relative to other antipsychotic medications has not been fully determined. Clinicians should monitor all severely mentally ill patients receiving antipsychotic drugs for diabetes, with closer monitoring of patients with established demographic risk factors.

Short-sighted passing zone in Lower Macungie
Q: I'm curious as to why Minesite Road immediately west of Cedar Crest Boulevard has a passing zone. This seems ridiculous to me; it's an unusual and dangerous place to allow passing. The road was repaved just last year and the same center-lane passing zone was retained. Check it out and I'm sure you will agree.

Feeding People in a Bar
I was just asked to serve my pulled pork to a local Knights of Columbus bar room. They have a workable commercial kitchen that is inspected and approved by the local health department. I have been there many times and on Friday nights they have a good size crowd. I've never done something like this and would love any input good or bad.
Thanks Mike |
It sounds like a golden opportunity to me, Mike. Congrats!
Obviously you've already impressed someone with your pulled pork. Just do what you do and do it well.
You need help with quantities or something? How many people do you guesstimate?
BTW: Congrats! |
Golden opp! That's a great angle for a caterer. Next you will be hunting down VFW, American Legions, most that have a building will have a kitchen an Bar. Even Churches that have school usually have Kitchens. You could do Parish picnics and such. Good luck were all counting on you!
I was thinking on making enough for 50 sammies and maybe serving them with one side. The management said it was entirely up to me; they are just doing this as a service to their members.
Price per plate? |
Make sure you run out! In this type of situation I think it's a good marketing ploy to sell out. Will make people that didn't buy one this time to want one next time.
People, BBQ, bar, and booze..............that's a winning combo in my book. This is just me, but want to make plenty and feed as many people as possible as they may become future clients for their private parties, etc.
Are they buying the food for you to cook or are you buying it and then selling it? I would think that would make a difference as well. If I was buying and then selling, I wouldn't want to have a lot left over and eat into my profits. If they are buying just to feed the customers, I'd make more and then they can have the leftovers. I'd go for 100 sammies if they buying. Then maybe the 50 if I was buying and selling. Course I don't cater so what I said may not even be worth 2 cents. Good luck. Sounds like a really good time. You may want to ask them for an average head count on the day you will be doing this to give you a better idea. |
Be sure to take photos and post on here, bro! |
Congrats take alot of business cards.....Keri's Hog Apple beans go well with booze and have fun.............cant go wrong.
Thanks for all the positive feedback!
Mike |
Smoke on-site, you won't need any kind of permits. Start with 50 sandwiches and serve slaw for the pork and beans as the side, you should be able to go $6 or 7 easy! That will make it worth your while. If you sell out, adjust accordingly....once word spreads, look out! Good luck and pics!! :cool: |
Congrats!! Golden opportunity...
I started doing Q at my local pub when the weather is nice and that turned into sponsorship for our contest, private party's for local people that visit the pub and I even managed to lock in a BBQ at a pub about a mile from here for a Halloween cook. I have been granted full use of the kitchen whenever I want it with no strings attached. Of course the landlord and his staff eat for free on the night and are left with a clean kitchen, a full bottle of homemade sauce and not a clue there was any food in the place at closing time.
I also get to use part of the deep freezer to store my bulk items year round. This can be a huge open door for you so get after it and hang on tight. EDIT- I like to make things that are easy for people to eat standing so I go with chicken wrapped in bacon on wooden skewers, burgers, sausages on skewers and ABT's with a skewre in place if the toothpick holding three on each. |

Pattern: Kitschy Coo Lady Skater Dress
Fabric: Organic cotton jersey
This is my winter version of a just-released dress pattern, the 'Lady Skater', a simple knit dress with fitted bodice and flared skirt. Being more in the pencil skirt camp I wasn't sure how'd I like this style but since finishing it a week or two ago it's been on high rotation. So much better than tight fitting jeans (damn you winter insulation!) and now I can't imagine my winter wardrobe without it. It's just a great basic for any season, fun to style and like trackies you can chuck it on, forget it's there and get on with your day… looking considerably more respectable.

Handy Mixer
Sainsbury's A1962 Hand Mixer

Sainsbury's A1962 Hand Mixer
Date: 07/02/12, updated on 07/02/12 (40 review reads)
Advantages: Great value and does the job
Disadvantages: None
Everyone says 'you get what you pay for' - and that's not always true. You usually either get more or less than you pay for - and if I'm honest in my experience paying a little less, especially for kitchen items, you get a little less.
I'm in the kitchen a lot at home and work, and I know the importance of reliability as well as how itis important something does the job its designed for. I'm usually more than happy, after a little research, to pay a little more for something if I know it will last and can withstand the impending abuse I'm going to hopefully spend the next few years inflicting. I was delighted when they build a Poundland round the corner from my house - tons of bits and bobs at a great price. I was gutted after everything from there I have ever bought has let me down. Tongues snapped. Timers that don't time. Blunt knives.
So, I don't like to spend and I see the merit in spending a little more. Thats why last when shopping I saw this great little hand mixer at a pretty decent £12.99. I read they did a value mixer at £4.99, but nothing in sight. They had a few branded ones ranging upto £25, but this was the cheapest and looked fine. It had the attachments we wanted and was within our price range. If they had the value one I would have still opted for this, its almost twice the price but had the look and feel of a much more premium product. Its matt black and silver, 300w has 5 speeds and comes with interchangeable whisks and dough hooks.
We wanted a hand mixed because we make lots of bread and cakes. Its something we both insist on as we both love cooking and its great fun. When we have time off together we often cook and bake and over the past year or so been slowly building up the gadgets and gizmos for the kitchen. A hand mixer is a little bit of a late addition mainly due to the fact we both love kneading bread by hand mixing up cakes ourselves. We agreed to pick up a cheap mixer when we saw one and had the money as it mixing by machine save a little time and effort - and as with ever busying lifestyles we thought it time. When we saw this it was a no brainer. We love Sainsburys - feel genuine value for money when we shop their and as a result have built up a real affiliation and brand loyalty. We wen't to our local Morrisons tonight (its closer and were in a rush) and the are having a refurb. The signs out side say 'please accept our apologies while we improve your store', as soon as we read that my girlfriend said 'are they building a Sainsburys?'
This mixer has not broken tradition with the great value for money we have grown to expect from Sainsbury - it simply does is job and it does it well. Something like this, a future staple of the kitchen - I don't want anything more. The first time we cracked it out last week was to make a lemon drizzle cake and mixing by hand squeezed down the preparing time by about 10 minutes - and also resulted in a better cake. Cakes need air, and mixing by machine fills you mixture with more air than by hand. So you not only get a quicker cake but a better one too. For me, mixing by machine leaves you with a more premium product when cook - it just tastes more professional. You also eliminate lumps in the mix giving a much nicer cake - and with a mixer you get more consistently good results.
The first thing you notice is it has a nice weight. Not too heavy but heavy enough. A hand mixer should have a little weight to unsure its sits more firmly in your hand and the mixing bowl - to help maintain a stead mix. No one want batter all over the kitchen wall. It has five setting and the thing you will notice is even the first setting is quiet violent - you almost worry that setting 5 will start to drill through the work top - its ok though as once its running if feels easy to control.
For me though its the dough hook I love, if not for the fact its cleaner and quicker to mix like this than by hand. Mixing dough by hand is messy, and doing this saves time mixing and cleaning the kitchen. I'll be making much more bread simply due to the fact I own this and don't have to take into the mess. Its mixed quickly in the bowl with me touching it at all.
Next to the speed control is a little trigger to release the attachment. Its really easy and quick and makes cleaning a breeze. Once your done mixing, click off rinse and your done. 20 seconds max. You might have a little mix on the blender itself but has a nice smooth finish underside so just wipe clean. Its not cordless which some may find a pain - but not me. Plugging something like this in is not a hassle and the difference between £12.99 and £30. It just makes sense to go for the cheaper option.
It feels like a product that will last. Its sturdy and robust. The controls are not fiddly or small and its super simple to use. There is nothing to dislike about this, and just add to the belief I have Sainsbury is a great value supermarket. I assume other supermarkets have similar products, but this feels like a premium product at a really good price.
Summary: If you bake this is a great addition to the kitchen

You may already have made a mental note as to where you were when you heard the Supreme Court had upheld the health care law known as Obamacare. It's one of those moments that become touchstones of our memory, personal connections to the history we have witnessed in our lifetimes.
The Supreme Court may not be the source of such moments very often, but when its rulings reach this level of our awareness, they alter the course of our lives.
"Syrian opposition groups that track casualties reported on Friday that the previous day was the deadliest so far this year, and possibly in the entire Syrian uprising, with as many as 190 civilians killed in a 24-hour period," The New York Times is reporting.

"European stocks rallied after policy makers eased repayment rules for Spanish banks, relaxed conditions for possible aid to Italy and unveiled a $149 billion growth plan for the region's economy," Bloomberg News reports this morning. "U.S. index futures and Asian shares also rose."

Pessimism swept over advocates of the Affordable Care Act after oral arguments this spring seemed to go decidedly against the Obama administration. But the Supreme Court's ruling on Thursday — and its decision in another high-profile case this week — suggest oral arguments aren't as predictive of final outcome as some believe.

Return of the $78 Blu-ray player
Proof positive that camping out all night to score Black Friday deals is a waste of time, Wal-Mart is offering the same $78 Magnavox MB500MG1F Blu-ray player on its Web site that was previously an in-store-only, fight-the-crowds-to-get-it deal.
Its shipping will run you a measly 97 cents, though you'll probably have to add sales tax as well.
As you might expect, the MB500MG1F is about as no-frills as Blu-ray players come. There's no front-panel LED display, and it definitely won't do BD-Live, Netflix, or anything like that.

Our 42-page report explaining our long thesis for JGWPT Holdings (JGW) is available here.
We are long shares of JGWPT Holdings (NYSE:JGW), which, via its J.G. Wentworth and Peachtree brands, is the number-one player in an attractive consumer-finance market niche. JGW provides liquidity to personal-injury plaintiffs, lottery winners, and others who are entitled to long-term payment streams but have near-term financial needs. Despite its 60-70% market share, attractive organic growth rate, and ability to compound capital through acquisitions and platform expansion, JGW trades at a consensus P/E ratio of 7x, an EV/EBITDA multiple of 8x, and at nearly half of our estimate of intrinsic value.
Unlike other consumer-finance firms, JGW takes minimal credit risk and, under a well-established legal framework, obtains official court approval for every transaction it does. Regulatory uncertainty cannot justify its low valuation. But a slew of negative non-fundamental factors has dogged the stock since its November 2013 IPO: weak post-IPO trading, expiring share lock-ups, and, because of the ongoing involvement of its controlling private-equity shareholders, a small float relative to its market cap. As these non-fundamental issues fade away, the stock should re-rate dramatically on the strength of its underlying operations.
Although the sell side acknowledges the strength of JGW's business model, analysts have come up with a variety of unconvincing reasons for setting low price targets. These include unnecessarily punitive P/E multiples and unjustifiable discounts to inappropriate "peer group" valuations. Yet their targets still, on average, imply 21% upside. Notwithstanding its entrenched number-one position, JGW has compelling opportunities to further consolidate its core and adjacent markets with bolt-on acquisitions. At the time of its IPO, JGW cited six possible deals, the largest of which on its own could increase earnings by 30% and generate a more than 25% return on capital. Even without these deals, there remains great untapped potential in JGW's 120,000-strong customer database and 800,000 annual inbound phone calls. With such a discounted base-case valuation, investors are getting this growth option for free. If legacy shareholders want to sell without regard for value, we are happy to follow JGW's lead and give them "CASH NOW" in exchange for their highly attractive shares.
Below are key investment highlights for why we are long JGW.
- Ubiquitous Brand Name and Entrenched Customer Base Make JGW the Undisputed Industry Leader. JGW has 60-70% share in its core structured-settlement market; no competitor comes close to its scale. Settlement sellers typically sell only a fraction of their future payment streams in any one transaction, and then conduct follow-on sales as needed. Because JGW has the most recognizable brand and largest database of leads, it enjoys a steady flow of repeat customers, accounting for half of its transactions. These repeat customers are cheaper to acquire than new clients and add stability to revenue trends.
- Superior Cost of Capital and Robust Cash Flows via Regular Securitization. JGW is the only structured-settlement firm with access to cheap, consistent institutional funding via the securitization market. Having the lowest cost of funds in its sector allows JGW to offer settlement sellers the best price. In recent transactions JGW has been able to purchase assets at an 11% discount rate while Imperial Holdings, a smaller competitor, has been charging 17% – 18%. This is likely because Imperial funded its purchases through one-off transactions at high yields while JGW can reliably access 4% – 5% financing in the asset-backed securities market.
Furthermore, the gap between the value that the bond market ascribes to JGW's securitizations and the price that JGW pays to acquire assets is so large that JGW can crystallize almost all of its gain upfront. In effect, JGW's working capital is negative. The robust cash flow provided by the arrangement differentiates JGW from other securitization-funded finance companies, like mortgage originators, that often receive cash in a slow trickle over a period of many years.
- Exciting Growth Prospects and Ability to Compound Capital Through Bolt-on Deals. JGW has historically grown its key business drivers at mid-to-high single-digit rates, and higher interest rates in the future could lead more plaintiffs to opt for structured settlements. Moreover, as the top player in a fragmented industry, JGW has many opportunities to acquire smaller competitors and achieve synergies, yielding returns on capital of more than 25%.
Over time, JGW can do more to capitalize on its highly effective marketing, which elicits 67,000 inbound inquiries a month, only a small fraction of which it can address with its existing products. By monetizing more of these leads, JGW can boost revenue without adding meaningful expenses. And by expanding prudently in the adjacent domain of pre-settlement funding, it can begin to capture more of the litigation value chain.
- Attractive Unit Economics. On average, JGW buys payment streams at 34% of face value and sells them at 60% of face value, for a tremendous gross return on investment of almost 80%. Viewed from a different angle, we estimate that JGW spends $6,700 to acquire a new account, which in turn generates $15,400 of pre-tax earnings net of imputed costs.
- A Court-Sanctioned, Consumer-Friendly Business Model. Each of JGW's structured-settlement purchases must be individually approved by a judge. This court-approval process is not just a formality: the parties often appear before the judge in person, and the judge must rule that the transfer is in the best interest of the seller and his or her dependents – or else reject it. JGW's success rate in navigating this process is 95%.
Courts endorse JGW's transactions so frequently because JGW gives its clients a fair deal. The discount rates paid by JGW are attractive compared to the costs of alternative sources of liquidity like credit cards (19-24% for subprime borrowers), payday loans (>100%), and non-bank installment loans (18-36%). Relative to these alternatives, selling a payment stream at an 11% discount rate to repay higher-cost credit-card debt is a sensible financial move.
- Conservative DCF Valuation Implies 75% Upside to Current Share Price. JGW was expected to IPO at $19 to $22 a share, but the deal went badly and priced at $14. Since then, shares have struggled to gain traction, in part because JGW is the only major public company in its niche. But we estimate that its intrinsic value is almost $30, incorporating the benefit of the long-term tax deferral generated by JGW's business model but not factoring in the upside from its growth initiatives. The performance of other recent consumer-finance IPOs also suggests a fair value in the mid-$20-to-$30 per share range. If the sector once again sparks M&A interest, we note that in 2005 Peachtree, then JGW's largest competitor, sold to private equity for almost 16x pretax income. That multiple would imply a price for JGW of $36, 115% higher than where it trades today.

While on the Dunbar Bridge, the woman says the trooper again exposed himself to her and asked her to touch him.
"The only thing that saved me is that it's on audio. I keep saying, 'Please take me to work,'" the woman said. She claims that the incident was recorded by the State Police's in-car audio recording system. She said the trooper's camera was turned off.
According to the woman, the trooper told her he was going to take her the back way to the strip club where she worked.
"I said, 'There is no back way. It's straight on MacCorkle Avenue,'" she said. "He takes me up on the mountain - there were big gates we have to get through. We were overlooking the whole Kanawha Valley.
"So here he is, he comes up and tells me to get out [of the car]," she said. "And he rapes me."
The woman said she believes there is an audio recording of the entire incident.
She said once the State Police began their internal investigation, an officer told her not to tell anyone about what happened.
"They said if I wouldn't say anything, that the police barracks could punish him more if I kept my mouth shut," she said.
The woman said police told her they would force him to leave the state and go somewhere else where he could be a police officer.
She said she's now scared to leave her home.
"I don't know if he's going to do something to me," she said.
Lively said he couldn't comment on the woman's allegations about the internal investigator. All allegations are taken seriously, and troopers are punished accordingly when those allegations prove true, he said.
"We receive allegations all the time against our members," he said. "Some are substantiated, some are not. It's a part of doing business for any agency."
In December 2008, former State Trooper Derek S. Snavely resigned after a Charleston woman accused him of rape.
Kanawha County prosecutors declined to bring charges against Snavely after reviewing the evidence, Dan Holstein, assistant prosecutor for Kanawha County, said previously. The case was independently reviewed by two assistant prosecutors and they agreed that there was no prosecutable offense, he said.
A civil case against Snavely is scheduled to go to trial Oct. 25 in front of Kanawha Circuit Judge James Stucky, said Mike Clifford, the alleged victim's attorney.
Snavely is now chief of police in Hinton.

I know this movie is older but I didn't have a chance to see it until a little while ago, and it was definitely worth the wait. I am a big Tom Hanks fan and I've seen him do some great performances and he did a great job once again. The movie contains some great performances by every actor in the movie. The movie is about a depression era hitman (Hanks) who keeps his job a secret from his children but is unsuccessful when his eldest child waits in the car and sees his father perform his job duties. This brings attention from his boss and the bosses son played by Daniel Craig who kills Hanks' other son and wife. Hanks then goes and attempts to get revenge. I am not going to spoil the movie but its a different performance from Hanks and he hits a homerun. The movie grabs you from the performance but also has a strong story that will hold you to your seats. Excellent movie.

so can you actually define broken? I hear blah blah but I see no real meat or ways to fix. Every class has their issues. My rogue has been chased by your pets forever despite vanish and stealth. I am sure the folks on here can define an issue for every class. And the fact is that despite being broken you continue to play. You can quit (which many non pet controlling hunters should do) or reroll a class you think is not broken. Try a shaman. 3 destinct specs that all are played different and non have been great and will actually improve play because of it.
