Caterpillar boosts quarterly dividend to 60 centsThe Associated Press
Caterpillar says its board has voted to increase the company's quarterly cash dividend by 8 cents to 60 cents.
The dividend will be paid on Aug. 20 to shareholders of record as of July 22.
Caterpillar Inc. Chairman and CEO Doug Oberhelman says the 15 percent increase, along with the company's $1 billion accelerated stock buyback announced in April, support its commitment to boost value for shareholders.
The move marks the Peoria, Ill.-based company's fourth-straight year with a dividend increase.
Its shares fell 30 cents to $83.22 in midday trading as broader market indicators fell.

New Orleans' New Faces: The Latino Population Jumps 40%
This is the new New Orleans, and it's going through a bit of an identity crisis.
Hurricane Katrina was the costliest and one of the five deadliest hurricanes in the history of the United States. It was the sixth-strongest Atlantic hurricane ever recorded and the third-strongest hurricane on record that made landfall in the United States. Katrina formed on August 23 during the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season and caused devastation along much of the north-central Gulf Coast. The most severe loss of life and property damage occurred in New Orleans, Louisiana, which flooded as the levee system catastrophically failed, in many cases hours after the storm had moved inland. The hurricane caused severe destruction across the entire Mississippi coast and into Alabama, as far as 100 miles (160 km) from the storm's center. In the 2005 Atlantic season, Katrina was the eleventh tropical storm, fifth hurricane, third major hurricane, and second Category 5 hurricane.
This is the new New Orleans, and it's going through a bit of an identity crisis.
John Barry is either a hero or a huckster, a concerned citizen or a radical activist. It depends on who you ask. Barry, as part of a board appointed by the state to study flood protection after Hurricane Katrina, helped engineer a lawsuit against 97 oil and gas companies, seeking damages that would help pay for a plan to mitigate Louisiana's eroding coastline.
Large offshore wind turbine arrays may help protect vulnerable coastal areas from the worst impacts of landfalling hurricanes, according to a new study, in addition to producing renewable energy.
In the midst of New Orleans still reeling from Hurricane Katrina, Candy Chang channelled her frustration and pain into building a wall. Unlike most walls, this one wasn't meant to keep people apart, but to bring them closer than ever. Chang, an artist and designer known for thought-provoking, interactive installations, has been preoccupied with the idea of death since she lost a loved one who had been like a mother to her for 15 years.
Google Street View first came to New Orleans in 2008, just three years after Hurricane Katrina. The original images showed areas that were unaffected by the disaster and others that remained completely devastated. Fast forward to 2012, and Google has introduced updated images of the iconic city.
Kanye West is no stranger to bad press, even President Obama thinks he's a "jackass." Sure the most recent incident — the Kanye West/Taylor Swift VMA interruption — caused quite the dust up, but is it the worst we've seen from Kanye in recent memory? Back in 2005, the rapper felt entitled to the best album award at the Grammys, so he issued a very brazen warning during a pre-show interview. Then in 2006, Kanye had an onstage outburst when he didn't win at the MTV Europe Music Awards.
Steven Hodson is the cranky old fart as well as respected Web 2.0 and social media pundit behind WinExtra.com. He doesn't suffer from the illusion that his tweets are making a positive difference for the oppressed and impoverished, but still doesn't let that stop him. As human beings we love nothing better than to think that some effort of ours will make a difference somewhere in the world.

Access "What's to be done about data breach discovery?"
This article is part of the 2 July 2013 issue of Business value from the internet of things
The time from initial compromise by cyber attackers to when the victim first learns of the incident continues to be measured in months and even years, not hours and days, according to Verizon's recently released 2013 Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR). What does this mean for business? According to the Verizon report, 66% of breaches in the past year took months or more to discover breaches, which means most attackers are able to exfiltrate data and scout around in the IT systems of a targeted business for weeks before they are discovered. While intrusion prevention is crucial, the DIBR says businesses must accept the fact that no barrier is impenetrable. Detection and response represents a critical line of defence. According to Verizon, businesses need to stop treading detection and response like a backup plan if things go wrong. Instead, businesses should make detection and response capabilities a core part of their security plan. Logging and monitoring, for example, are critical to detecting activity that could lead to a breach and preventing or ... Access >>>

Ohio's Best Rx, a free, state-endorsed prescription drug discount program available to seniors and other qualifying low-income families and individuals since 2004, has expanded and is now available to all Ohio residents, regardless of age or income.
There are no waiting periods to receive the card and no membership fees. Ohioans age 60-plus, as well as adults age 18 to 59 with disabilities, have access to Ohio's Best Rx as a benefit with their Golden Buckeye Card. Others can now sign up for Ohio's Best Rx instantly online, by phone or via text message.
"Having access to the medications our health professionals prescribe is essential to maintaining the highest quality of life possible. But for some, getting the medicine they need at a price they can afford is a challenge, "said Bonnie Kantor-Burman, director of the Ohio Department of Aging. "Now, all Ohioans have access to savings on drug purchases not covered by insurance. For many, this can mean the difference between getting the care they need and not getting it."
Ohio's Best Rx is administered by Envision Pharmaceutical Services through a public-private partnership with the Ohio Department of Aging. Envision's pharmacy benefits manager secures discounts on prescription drugs and passes those savings on to customers.
"This partnership exemplifies innovation and transparency, and is the foundation of the relationship between the Ohio Department of Aging and Envision," said Barry Katz, President, Envision. "Envision is proud to be an Ohio-based company focused on delivering value to the residents of the state."
The Ohio's Best Rx discount is honored at more than 60,000 pharmacies in the nationwide network, including major chain pharmacies. Ohio's Best Rx is not prescription drug insurance, but can help individuals and families without coverage for some or all of the prescriptions significantly reducing their out-of-pocket costs. Members will always pay the lower of Ohio's Best Rx negotiated price and the pharmacy's usual and customary price. Members whose family income is less than 300 percent of the federal poverty level qualify for even deeper discounts.
Visit www.OhioBestRx.org to learn more about the program, download a printable card, find participating pharmacies and estimate savings on specific prescriptions.
Call 1-866-923-7879 (TTY users dial 711 for Relay Service) to sign up and have a card mailed to you or receive a card on your mobile phone by texting OHBEST to 657899.

Indian Festival of Lights celebrated
Happiness, prosperity and forgivenessHAMISH CARDWELL
Relevant offers
The green chillies don't have the same burn, and roses stand in for the traditional water lilies, but a Blenheim family still had a great time yesterday during Diwali, the Indian Festival of Lights.
The Hindu festival involves feasting and lighting candles and fireworks to symbolise the victory of light over darkness.
Healthcare assistant Sunida Chand said the day was similar to Christmas, in that families gathered together and ate food.
"On the first day we invite our god into the house. We light a candle and it burns for three days. It brings happiness and prosperity into your life.
"It is also about forgiveness. If anyone has annoyed you or offended you, you can get together and forgive each other."
The Chand family emigrated to New Zealand from Fiji in 2007 and have been in Blenheim for three years.
Mrs Chand said it could be hard in Blenheim finding the food they were used to getting in Fiji, especially green vegetables and hot green chillies.
Mrs Chand's son Shiv said the family would forgo meat leading up to and during Diwali, which could be difficult.
"But on the day, we eat a lot of Indian foods like curry, chutney and sweets."
A particular favourite of Mr Chand is ladoo, a ball of sugary, spicy joy.
"That's the best one, the one everyone has to prepare."
The climate made living in Blenheim pleasant but the winters were still very cold, Mr Chand said.
Winery worker Deepak Kumar said the best part of the festival was letting off fireworks.
"We do a lot of them - big ones. We spent $500 on them this year."
The word Diwali comes from the Sanskrit word deepavali meaning " an array of lights" and signifies the the victory of light over darkness.
Diwali also marks the end of the Vikram year, with a new year beginning today.

A bumbling professor accidentally invents flying rubber, or "Flubber," an incredible material that gains energy every time it strikes a hard surface. It allows for the invention of shoes that can allow jumps of amazing heights and enables a modified Model-T to fly. Unfortunately, no one is interested in the material except for Alonzo Hawk, a corrupt businessman who wants to steal the material for himself.
A professor invents an anti-gravity substance which a businessman wants for himself.
Hailed as one of Walt Disney's most hilarious comedies, THE ABSENT-MINDED PROFESSOR contains two essential elements for laughter - Fred MacMurray and Flubber, his gravity-defying formula for flying rubber! You'll visit Medfield College and delight in the fun when Professor Brainard (Fred MacMurray) uses Flubber to put more bounce in the basketball team, fly a Model "T" Jalopy over Washington, D.C., and save Medfield College from financial ruin! Join a brilliant cast full of your favorite Disney stars: Ed Wynn as Medfield's bumbling Fire Chief, Keenan Wynn as the evil-minded Alonzo Hawk, and Nancy Olson as the college secretary who the Professor has absent-mindedly left at the altar...three times!
A veteran Broadway producer has a fling with his young drama student-secretary who truly loves him. When he realizes that he can't use her to regain his lost youth he turns the romance into the subject of his play.
Arrested for fatally beating an elderly widow, Barbara Graham (Hayward) at first goads the police, refusing to answer their questions. But when an alleged accomplice turns state's evidence, Graham insists that she's innocent. Condemned by the press and the public, Graham is found guilty of murder and sentenced to die in the gas chamber. But as her execution date nears, Graham desperately attempts to expose the truth and save her life against all odds.
The central performances of Fred MacMurray as a U.S. Marshal and Robert Vaughn as a psychopathic killer make this an unusual and absorbing Western. MacMurray must prove his charismatic young captive guilty of murder against much opposition.
Three teen boys, 1950's juvenile delinquents, steal cars for joyrides. They hit and leave a woman, after having forced another car into a ditch. A surprisingly intelligent and effective police force finds and apprehends them.

I have been working at Altegrity full-time (more than an year)Pros
Fantastic paid time-off policy: you generally start at 3 weeks of vacation and work up to 5 weeks of vacation after 5 years PLUS 5 sick days.Cons
"Merit" pay increases have nothing to do with your actual performance, but rather a standard "accross the board" percentage for everyone (even the poor performers get rewarded).
Interested in advancement/promotion? Only those who have worked with the executives/VP's at previous companies get promotions and/or advancement opportunities. If you don't fit that criteria, but want to have any hope of advancement, become a senior VP's "yes" man/woman (preferably man).
The benefits are poor (at best). Each year the quality of medical coverage decreases while the cost to employee increases.
There is a lot of uncertainty about the company and its future among employees (mainly due to lack of communication of strategy/vision from senior management).
Poor employee morale.Doesn't RecommendNegative Outlook

After some investigation, it turns out that the oil riggers were retrieving the pipe in order to replace a drill bit. While replacing the bit, "mud" is usually applied to maintain pressure. In this case, the pressure became dangerously low and a natural gas blowout occurred. The pressure created expansion in the Earth, which expanded the mass and created five breaks in an east-west fault on the ocean floor. From this point, oil and gas came out from the Earth and bubbled up to the surface Conclusion: Tech is Important!! From the 1969 Santa Barbara Spill, the United States learned about the risks of oil drilling Based upon what immediately caused the oil spill, it was all technology More regulation needed More safety-guards on the oil rigs Less ease of being able to drill on sites, especially those offshore The only way offshore drilling would be later approved is if it could be proved from a technical standpoint that oil spilling disasters can be prevented Oil Drilling and its Bad Rep Technology has not changed much over half a century A few improvements for preventing accidents on oil rigs - Different Drilling Methods (e.g. Horizontal) - Satellite imaging - Seismic indicators Main concerns: - Time and cost put into the technology - Accuracy and maintenance - Overall Risks: Especially Environmental - Improvements that can be made?

"The Help" is the phenomenal international bestseller (that inspired the Oscar nominated film) by Kathryn Stockett. Enter a vanished and unjust world: Jackson, Mississippi, 1962. Where black maids raise white children, but aren't trusted not to steal the silver...There's Aibileen, raising her seventeenth white child and nursing the hurt caused by her own son's tragic death; Minny, whose cooking is nearly as sassy as her tongue; and white Miss Skeeter, home from College, who wants to know why her beloved maid has disappeared. Skeeter, Aibileen and Minny. No one would believe they'd be friends; fewer still would tolerate it. But as each woman finds the courage to cross boundaries, they come to depend and rely upon one another. Each is in a search of a truth. And together they have an extraordinary story to tell..."The other side of "Gone with the Wind" - and just as unputdownable". ("The Sunday Times"). "A big, warm girlfriend of a book". ("The Times"). "Harper Lee's classic novel "To Kill a Mockingbird" has changed lives. Its direct descendent "The Help" has the same potential ...an astonishing feat of accomplishment". ("Daily Express").Kathryn Stockett was born and raised in Jackson, Mississippi. After graduating from the University of Alabama, she moved to New York City, where she worked in magazine publishing and marketing for nine years. She currently lives in Atlanta with her husband and daughter. "The Help" is her first novel.

Today I'm drowning my electoral dismay in the tits of famous people. I can't use my vote to raise Braveheart from the ashes and take on Ebola, so I'm going to stare at women without bras on until I no longer care. I could go with whiskey, but I did that last election cycle and I just ended up six weeks later at the local Planned Parenthood with a girl I barely knew putting down my Discover card on an Early Bird Special. I thought we got balloons. We got no balloons.
Joanna Krupa has fought off some nasty professional escort background rumors by prostituting herself on Bravo! reality shows and walking around town without undergarments. I might have chosen a different image rehab plan of attack. Maybe write a book on being a working mother. Nobody really even bothers to check if you have a kid. Just pen a few chapters about the craziness of nursing at work and trying to look your best when you're exhausted and you'll be a modern day Elizabeth Cady Stanton. I guess showing off your tits is easier. At least you'll know people weren't just pretending to look like they would be with your book.

Five Favorite Films with Footloose Director Craig Brewer
The Hustle & Flow writer/director explains why he took on the 1980s remake.
Brewer filming on location for Hustle & Flow
RT: Let's talk about Footloose.
Craig Brewer: You know, I kept Footloose out. I kept it out, but I would put Footloose up in there. Really, Footloose is one of the most important movies of my life.
No kidding. Alright, well, let's get the basics out of the way: how did you come to work on the Footloose remake?
I got a call. I got a call from Adam Goodman, head of the studio. [laughs] He was like, "You gotta do Footloose." I had passed on it already, because -- I'm sure, like a lot of fans of Footloose -- how can you possibly dare to think that Footloose could be redone, and why would you want to do that? He said something to me that really clicked. He was like, "Well, listen, I think that you're the person to do it. I think that the kinds of stories that you've been wanting to tell and the movies that you've already made actually are in the spirit of the original." And they were very protective of the original; they weren't in it just to make a money grab off of the title, because this is actually one of Paramount's smaller movies. So they really wanted to do it for the heart, and they put that in my court to run with.
I knew that if I figured out one thing, that it would all click into place, and that is the big MacGuffin, which is the whole, "How can you do a movie about a town banning dancing?" When I figured it out, I called up Adam, and I said, "Okay, here's how the movie begins," and I started telling him the movie, and within 10 minutes he's like, "You did it. That's how we're going to do Footloose."
In the original movie, they don't talk about why the town banned dancing until about an hour in. Up until that hour, we as an audience believe that it's about Hell, like, they don't want their kids dancing because they don't want them to burn in the fiery pits of Hell, right? That's kind of what you're feeling. And then later you go, "Oh my god, there was this bad accident that killed the preacher's son, the older brother of this girl that's kind of suicidal, screwing around with guys she shouldn't be screwing around on." To me, that is more relevant than Heaven and Hell. To me, I feel we're in a country right now that overreacts for the right reasons. We overreact in the wrong way for the right reason. We love and we care for our kids, we want the best for our fellow man, we don't want harm to come to us. Therefore, the following laws need to be passed, so we don't even have the risk of this happening, ever.
I felt that if I could, at the beginning of the movie, give some context to this town, then the religious part of it would be taken out of it, and therefore I could focus on the religious elements in the movie that I think are better applicable to a modern South. I don't like demonizing religion. I grew up with faith in my life, I grew up in church, and I've criticized it. I mean, you've seen my movies; it's not necessarily like I'm a Christian poster child, but there's Christian themes in all of my movies. I mean, Black Snake Moan, I got the idea for that from the book of Genesis, you know? And so, I wanted to make a movie where, to some degree, you understood where Reverend Moore was coming from. You know, I'm a father now, so I saw where he was coming from, and I knew that if I just, at the beginning of the movie, established that, where the one thing where people were like, "This just makes no sense. Why would you have a law banning dancing?" Well, let me tell you, when people watch the first five minutes of the movie, I think they get it, and they move past it, and they're able to enjoy the movie and actually find that it's relevant to this day.
You know, before I saw your film, I actually did rewatch the original Footloose, and this was, in fact, one of the problems I had with the original. Watching yours, I was surprised by how much this change altered the tone of the movie as a whole, for me.
Right, right. I'm glad you got to see them back-to-back, and I wish more people would treat this remake that way. I'm not here to replace that movie. I really want it to be a companion piece. That was the 1984 version of these things. You know, Dean Pitchford, who wrote the original, he's co-screenwriter on this, because I really wanted a lot of the story to remain intact. I had great respect for the original Footloose; I'm not going to rethink it. I don't want Ren going to bars, or Afghanistan to teach people how to dance; I want the same story. But it felt like in the South, now we get to deal with things that everybody at least thinks about with the South, this polarization, that they don't want people coming in and telling them how to live their lives, you know, or changing what faith put in place, the whole red state/blue state thing. And now, I feel like our times are more polarizing than ever, because of those things. So I felt like, if I could just get on board with that element of it, then it was going to be a movie that doesn't seem out of place next to Hustle & Flow and Black Snake Moan.
Yes, at first glance, people might look at you directing this film and think, "Wow, this is a huge departure for him after Hustle & Flow and Black Snake Moan...?
And what do you think, after having seen it?
After having seen it, I don't think that's necessarily the case, because it's got that musical element, it's got the Southern setting, it's got those themes of morality and redemption, which seem to exist in all of your films.
I totally give that to the original, though. That's what people don't realize. If you want to understand where Hustle & Flow and Black Snake Moan came from, I grew up with Footloose. I grew up with Flashdance. I grew up with Urban Cowboy. An Office and a Gentleman. These movies of the 1980s that were kind of "pop" movies, they had a hard edge to them. You know, Prince hauls off and smacks Apollonia after she gives him a white guitar. You know, Ariel takes a pipe to her boyfriend's truck. These are some tough movies; they don't make teenager movies like those any more. People are afraid. If Footloose, the original, came out today, I think it'd be rated R. It's got kids smoking pot, it's got underage sex, you got kids in bars drinking beer, and luckily, Paramount allowed me to keep all that. I was like, "Can I at least have it be as taboo as the original that plays on VH1? I mean, I'm not even going to do anything extra, but can I at least do what Footloose did?" Because that alone, people forget, was kind of hard. I think that they remember Footloose through watching music videos on VH1 "Remember the '80s" or something like that, but I saw a movie that was kind of hard. Let me tell you, I remember the gasp in the theater when Lori Singer said, "I'm not even a virgin." I remember it. People were like, "Ohh!" And now, they do the same thing this year. When I watch this version with a big crowd, an audience, "Ohh!" And it's like, "Haven't you guys seen Footloose? [laughs] Haven't you seen Footloose? Don't you know this moment happens?" They forget, like, "Oh my god, I can't believe she said that."
Speaking of which, it struck me how similar your film is to the original in some respects, and yet how it manages to avoid feeling outdated. Was it you who was responsible for bringing on Dean Pitchford?
Yes, yes. I had lunch with two people after I decided to do it, the first being Craig Zadan; he's one of the producers on it, and he produced the original film. I said, "Listen, I know everybody's wanting me to update and change it up and all this kind of bullsh**, but you need to know from me that's not going to happen completely with me, because I love Footloose, and I think that there's a way to show Footloose to a new audience -- and to its old audience -- to say, 'There are certain things that you loved about it, and it's not just Kenny Loggins singing that song. You loved Willard. You loved the friendship that was happening between these guys. We all want to feel like we could be chubby, or skinny dorks, and at the end of that movie, we're dancing, and people are cheering and applauding and cracking up, because that's what the spirit of Footloose was.'"
And then I met with Dean. Dean read the script that I wrote -- and I was very nervous about Dean reading it -- and I said, "Dean, look, they tried to remake Footloose a couple of times, and the scripts that they made... No disrespect to them, but it was just a different direction than I wanted to go in." You know, they were changing things about it, and I told him. I was like, "Listen, I took your original script, and I made my version of it, but it's you and me, buddy, and if you don't like this script, then we're not going to make it." But he was very emotional about it, in a very good way, and he said, "I see that you loved its heart." And we just recently screened it for him, and it was probably one of the greatest nights of my life because -- it's weird -- I met a man who was instrumental in my growth; he just didn't know it. [laughs] So I had to tell him that; I was like, "Look, you need to know. I know you're looking at Hustle & Flow and Black Snake Moan, but Footloose made me who I am. This is my way of saying 'thank you,' and I hope that you approve," and he loved the film. I think I made the right decision, just like I think J.J. Abrams, when he did Star Trek, he made the right decisions. We need to give places in this movie where people can feel like they've seen things from the past, of the movies that they love, but it's in a new version that feels relevant and cool.
Footloose (2011) opens on October 14.

When I was unzipping Aria's files for the new Strength themed Follow Your Art Kits I was inspired to write a poem, and then using her images I made it into an art journal page.
Who do you see when you look at me?
Do you see the real me?
Or do you project me on top of your views,
your preconceptions, judgements and rules?
Who do you see when you look at me?
Do you see the real me?
Do you allow me to show you myself
on a blank canvas, on an empty shelf?
Who do you see?
Please, oh please, see me.
As usual, clicking on the image should take you to a larger version in the gallery.
