Which is the "best" way to achieve this look?
I'm Not looking for a huge look, happy to be around 80kg of good mass.
The first thing I will get ou the way is that, please don't give me any leg regime or any sort of regime that involves anything I don't request as I don't want you guys wasting your own time.I don't wish to do legs at all at the moment as I get injuries far to often.
The main exercises I'm wanting the most advice from are as follows,
Arms & Chest
Can anyone give me the best routines just for exercises/building mass for these parts only.
My diet is fine as I eat what I wish but also have enough protein to cover my size so I do not need advise on this either.
Thanks in advance,.
ps: Please don't comment if your comment isn't an exercise regime for the parts asked. I don't care if some troll wishes to call me for being a curl jockey or looking "odd" for having a built upper body only. I don't wish to come across offensive or anything but I want constructive reples ONLY in the questions I asked.
I appreciate the feedback.

After looking over the project he had in mind, I decided it was going to be major, so I renegotiated our contract to be paid in 10 hour blocks.
After billing him for the first 10 hours, he became elusive and said he would deposit a check into my bank, he wanted all my info, SS, Bank Numbers, Copy of my Drivers License. This did not make sence to me and I begain to get suspisious. After a few hours of emails and Skype conversations, he finally came out and said in an email "So as you are being pushy on payment. I am feeling apprehensive. So I am going to go back to my original plan which is to pay when the entire project is done ."
After which I responded telling him we would not do anymore work on the site until the balance was paid, which by now is at 16 hours. The way he wanted to do it, would have left me 25 to 30 hours in the red.
So, he changed my password so I could not get back on the site to work on it or revert back to the code that was there before I began.
I get the feeling he was trying to get this site built ripping off small programmers like myself and not pay them for as many hours as he could get the to do before they caught on to his deceit as there was evidence that other had worked on it previously.

SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 09, 2012POSTED: Thursday, August 09, 2012
on 2012-07-13, 11:51AM EDT i posted a craigslist ad. and this is what my ad specifically said word for word:
"I am hiring local phpdeveloper. And need that person to work side by side with me in person. We can meet at a coffee shop or a beer bar. I will direct you on what needs to be done.
yes there is pay in this gig. Cash once job is done. "
Now did i say anywhere that i would pay before the job was done? Did I tell you anywhere in the ad that the product was almost finished? I said my website is almost finished, not the amount of work that you had to do is almost done. I just asked for a developer to work for me and do as i directed in person.
Where did you do the work? At home ? That's not what my ad asked? Didn't you have partner with you when i asked for the information about the social security or EIn number so i can file tax? That's nothing out of the ordinary to ask. In any job that you enter and working for a company they will ask for your company information. And I also told you in person that I was going to reciprocate it and provide you with my ID. I told you that if the work that was perform was over a specify amount of hours, and i had to pay you over a certain amount of money govern by the statue of the state of florida, i would have to file tax.
Now please understand that you and your partner is over 45 each, and I am only a young lad. How can I cheat two people that are older than me. I agree to give you the job and will pay you in cash when you finish. Not when you ask to be paid.
again, none of your code was used. this case is closed
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Home » Opinion » Columns
Pat Buchanan: This is not Ronald Reagan's conservatism
The blog tells us what the Post regards as conservatism.
Recently, Rubin declared that America's "greatest national security threat is Iran." Do conservatives really believe this?
How is America, with thousands of strategic and tactical nuclear weapons, scores of warships in the Med, Persian Gulf, Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean, bombers and nuclear subs and land-based missiles able to strike and incinerate Iran within half an hour, threatened by Iran?
Iran has no missile that can reach us, no air force or navy that would survive the first days of war, no nuclear weapons, no bomb-grade uranium from which to build one. All of her nuclear facilities are under constant United Nations surveillance and inspection.
And if this Iran is the "greatest national security threat" faced by the world's last superpower, why do Iran's nearest neighbors - Turkey, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, Pakistan - seem so unafraid of her?
Citing the Associated Press and Times of Israel, Rubin warns us that "Iran has picked 16 new locations for nuclear plants."
How many nuclear plants does Iran have now? One, Bushehr.
Begun by the Germans under the shah, Bushehr was taken over by the Russians in 1995, but not completed for 16 years, until 2011. In their dreams, the Iranians, their economy sinking under U.S. and U.N. sanctions, are going to throw up 16 nuclear plants.
Twice Rubin describes our situation today as "scary."
Remarkable. Our uncles and fathers turned the Empire of the Sun and Third Reich into cinders in four years, and this generation is all wee-weed up over Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
"For all intents and purposes, (Bibi) Netanyahu is now the West's protector," says Rubin. How so? Because Obama and Chuck Hagel seem to lack the testosterone "to execute a military strike on Iran."
Yet, according to the Christian Science Monitor, Bibi first warned in 1992 that Iran was on course to get the bomb - in three to five years! And still no bomb.
And Bibi has since been prime minister twice. Why has our Lord Protector not manned up and dealt with Iran himself?
Answer: He wants us to do it - and us to take the consequences.
"With regard to Afghanistan, the president is pulling up stakes prematurely," says Rubin.
As we are now in the 12th year of war in Afghanistan, and about to leave thousands of troops behind when we depart in 2014, what is she talking about?
"In Iraq, the absence of U.S. forces on the ground has ushered in a new round of sectarian violence and opened the door for Iran's growing violence."
Where to begin. Shia Iran has influence in Iraq because we invaded Iraq, dethroned Sunni Saddam, disbanded his Sunni-led army that had defeated Iran in an eight-year war and presided over the rise to power of the Iraqi Shia majority that now tilts to Iran.
Today's Iraq is a direct consequence of our war, our invasion, our occupation. That's our crowd in Baghdad, cozying up to Iran.
And the cost of that war to strip Iraq of weapons it did not have? Four thousand five hundred American dead, 35,000 wounded, $1 trillion and 100,000 Iraqi dead. Half a million widows and orphans. A centuries-old Christian community ravaged. And, yes, an Iraq tilting to Iran and descending into sectarian, civil and ethnic war. A disaster of epochal proportions.
But that disaster was not the doing of Barack Obama, but of people of the same semi-hysterical mindset as Ms. Rubin.
She writes that for the rest of Obama's term, we "are going to have to rely on France, Israel, our superb (albeit underfunded) military and plain old luck to prevent national security catastrophes."
Is she serious?
Is French Prime Minister Francois Hollande really one of the four pillars of U.S national security now? Is Israel our security blanket, or is it maybe the other way around? And if America spends as much on defense as all other nations combined, and is sheltered behind the world's largest oceans, why should we Americans be as frightened as Rubin appears to be?
Undeniably we face challenges. A debt-deficit crisis that could sink our economy. Al-Qaida in the Maghreb, Africa, Arabia, Iraq and Syria. North Korea's nukes. A clash between China and Japan that drags us in. An unstable Pakistan's nuclear arsenal.
But does Iran, a Shia island in a Sunni sea, a Persian-dominated land where half the population is non-Persian, a country whose major exports, once we get past fossil fuels, are pistachio nuts, carpets and caviar, really pose the greatest national security threat to the world's greatest nation?
We outlasted the evil empire of Lenin and Stalin that held captive a billion people for 45 years of Cold War, and we are frightened by a rickety theocracy ruled by an old ayatollah?
Rubin's blog may be the Post's idea of conservatism. Ronald Reagan wouldn't recognize it.

IBM Research has run done a side-by-side comparison of the KVM hypervisor and containerisation enfant terrible Docker and found the latter " equals or exceeds KVM performance in every case we tested." Big Blue tested the two using the linear-equation solving package Linpack, the STREAM benchmark of memory bandwidth, network …
Not surprising
An app inside a container is essentially native: Same CPU, same kernel for all containers. There is just a more isolation between the processes compared to the case without containers. So if most benchmarks did not run at native speed, there would be something seriously wrong with the container implementation.
I find the container approach way more sane than virtualization, unless you really need to run different operating systems on the same machine.
Re: Not surprising
People are flocking to "containers" as though they are some magical new feature that has only recently become available, but they are no different than BSD jails, Solaris Zones - which themselves are not much more different than a chroot.
With Docker, although you get native performance, you still miss things like memory overcommit and IO management that you get with a VM and so you can get less performance from a single box.
Docker allows you to split up and isolate applications, but if you couldn't run all those applications on a single host without Docker, then you still cannot with Docker. With a VM you have more control over how IO resources are allocated so that all applications can be run with their desired performance profile.
Re: Not surprising
Memory overcommit ?!?!
Oh please, because we really need our kernel to go around on a pseudo-random killing spree just because some application running in some container decided it needed that much memory and the OS simply couldn't say no.
Re: Not surprising
Try OpenVZ, it has a ton of tweaking features like this. I still can't figure out why Docker and LXC re-invented the wheel (poorly)
Re: Not surprising
"Try OpenVZ, it has a ton of tweaking features like this. I still can't figure out why Docker and LXC re-invented the wheel (poorly)"
Because the OpenVZ patches have never been accepted into the mainstream kernels. Now, that cgroups and namespaces are in the mainstream kernel, OpenVZ is dead. The OpenVZ devs have never been able to keep up moving their collection of patches to the newest kernel release. OpenVZ is still stuck on kernel 2.6.
And the OpenVZ devs know this, and are now adding cgroups/lxc support into vzctl, so you can provision LXC-like containers via their tools. Eventually OpenVZ will just be a wrapper around cgroups and namespaces.
Isn't this less about docker
And more about LXC? Or does docker not use LXC anymore. My impression was docker was simply a way to package things and had little to do with the container itself.
I deployed a few lxc containers earlier this year. They serve their purpose fine. I looked into docker at the time and found no reason to use it. Just used lxc as built into ubuntu 12.04. We built the containers months ago and haven't had to touch them since(from an OS/container standpoint at least). If you are frequently destroying and recreating containers perhaps docker is good. Life cycles for my systems typically measure in years.
So I adapted our existing provisioning system that I have been using for 7 years that works on physical as well as virtual hardware and added simple LXC hooks into it. So installation and system configuration is very similar to the other systems we have.
Performance is good but containers are quite limited in functionality which will limit my usage of them to specific use cases.
Re: Isn't this less about docker
It doesn't use LXC anymore, it uses it's own library called libcontainer instead, as of version 1.
Both base onto the kernel primitive containerisation stuff like cgroups that Google originally contributed in.
Ah, IBM..
Conventional wisdom (to the extent such a thing exists in the young cloud ecosystem)
If there's one thing I've always enjoyed about IBM it's that people I have dealt with are invariably rather seriously clued up.
Re: Ah, IBM..

"you might think that's goodnight for virtualisation"
In your wet dream!! ...
Containers and Virtulisation might be the same species, but they are different breeds.. Your comparing a race horse vs a shire horse. They exist for different purposes, the reason I run VMWare is because it turns the tin into a Mongrel, i.e. so it can have a bit of everything.. The reason I run containers, well actually I'm still trying to figure that out!
The chances of Containers replacing Virtualisation are ZERO, ZILCH, NIL, NULL, SWEET FA.... Its elementary my dear el-reg hack.
Hardly a surprise...
Having one kernel overhead for n instances is pretty much bound to be better than n+1 kernels (and that's before you consider the fight for memory, etc, - and licensing). LPARs, zones, etc, have been around long enough to prove it.
Linux and Windows VMs are popular because there hasn't been a ubiquitous shrinkwrapped option for containerisation that you can move between providers (or, in the case of Windows, much option at all). VMs aren't going away - there will always be cases in which it's convenient to have virtualisation (migration, testing) - but they were only ever the default for resource sharing because there was no practical alternative.
Old is new
For years many OSs have shown that OS level virtualisation is tonnes faster than pseudo type 1 / type 2 virtualisation. Why they needed to prove that to themselves I'm not sure.
Brendan Gregg (DTrace) did a great comparison - http://dtrace.org/blogs/brendan/2013/01/11/virtualization-performance-zones-kvm-xen/
How does this compare to Virtuozzo?
Containers have been the fastest VM technology for a decade thanks to Virtuozzo and OpenVZ. How do these two newer technologies compare?
Re: How does this compare to Virtuozzo?
" Containers have been the fastest VM technology for a decade thanks to Virtuozzo and OpenVZ."
I think you mean '.... for over 15 years thanks to FreeBSD jails'
The real question is, how does KVM do so poorly?
Linpack is totally CPU bound, there should be essentially zero virtualization overhead. If it was testing something I/O intensive or otherwise making a lot of system calls, then this would be an expected result.
Is it possible the Linpack test created a lot of FP exceptions like denorms? That's the only reason I can think of why it wouldn't perform the same as native.
Easy explanation
The 2x performance difference in LINPACK is very easy to explain -- KVM does not report that it supports AVX by default, so the LINPACK code runs using 128-bit SSE instructions instead of the 256-bit AVX instructions that are used in the native and containerized versions. We saw the same thing when we tested KVM at TACC and (if I recall correctly) it was very easy to fix.
STREAM is actually more difficult, but the two tests that IBM reported were constrained in ways that prevented the trouble from being visible. The single socket STREAM data (IBM's Figure 2) is reasonable for compilation with gcc. With streaming/nontemporal stores the results would be higher -- in the 36 GB/s to 38 GB/s range for native, container, or KVM. The two socket STREAM data (IBM's Figure 3) is only consistent across the three execution environments because they forced the memory allocation to be interleaved across the two sockets. Normally a native run of STREAM would use local memory allocation and get 75 GB/s to 78 GB/s (with streaming stores) or ~52 GB/s to 57 GB/s (without streaming stores). In this case the KVM version typically has serious trouble, since the virtual machine does not inherit the needed NUMA information from the host OS, and often loses close to a factor of two in performance. I don't know whether the containerized solution does better in providing visibility to the NUMA hardware characteristics.
Re: Easy explanation
Thank you for that great explanation, I hadn't considered the angle of what type of CPU features the VM would report for support for.
This is the kind of stuff that keeps me coming back to the Reg, and reading the comments!
Sun was saying this since 2004 with Solaris Containers/Zones... Only now the Linux zealots want to hear, because they discovered cold water...
Re: Well..
True. Since 2004 and charged heavy for it. It's interesting because it's open and free (almost) and as easy to deploy. You would understand if you are running a business that requires a tons of these and want to keep your licensing/support costs under control.
LXC will be faster than Docker
Docker will have performance overhead compared to normal LXC containers due to Docker's use of layers of read only filesystems. Using aufs or layers of filesystems via device mapper as Docker does will inevitably have a performance hit and increases complexity.
IBM should have tested normal LXC containers to get an accurate result of container vs VM performance.
There is a lot of confusion and misinformation in the media about LXC and Docker and a real danger of conflating Linux containers (LXC) to Docker, which is a single use case of containers to build stateless applications as services, which contrary to popular perception makes it more complex it use than LXC.
Docker containers can only run a single process or application. Docker containers unlike normal LXC containers have no init service to manage a normal modern multiprocess OS environment, so you have to run php, nginx and mysql for instance in 3 containers. You can't run things like SSH, cron or a management agent in Docker containers as that would be a second process.
While stateless containers is a legitimate use case, it's still a use case (and one perhaps more suited to PAAS type vendors pursuing statelessness than average users ) and the media and blogosphere do a great disservice to the LXC project on which Docker was/is based, to readers and informed discussion by not articulating these critical differences and simply pushing Docker as Linux containers.

I was thinking about the future of our society. (Not a good idea)
In 1950 the world population was about 2.5 billion. 60 years later it's 7 billion. That is 2.8 times as much as it was in 1950. Now let's pretend our new superior technology that makes it possible for us to genetically enhance food will make it possible for us to grow even more.
2.8 times 7 billion is about 20 billion. Which means we will be 20 billion people on earth in about 40 years from now. If we look on the current problems we are facing in our world today.
- War
- Ignorance
- Starvation
- Natural disasters
- Crime
Which of the above will double with the population growth of the world? I think it's safe to say that more people will mean more poverty which will result in more crime and probably war. The question is if we will have to redesign our society in any way, because let's face it the way we currently live our lives can't keep going forever.
What do you think our species will have to do in order to survive the next 100 years on this earth?

Cheapo me won't pay to upgrade my flickr account, so I apologize...I have to go back to uploading all my projects to Photobucket. Sorry Sadie!
Kayson 10-9-06 & Cohen 02-08-10
I opened a flickr just for my scrap pages since Sadie mentioned it! It has the added bonus of keep my scrap pages off my photobucket that my nosy inlaws are always checking. I haven't gone over my monthly upload limit yet, though.
mom to Caleigh Grace
I guess once you reach 200 pics it won't allow you to upload anymore, unless you upgrade too. I keep deleting old photos, so I can add more new ones, but it's getting to be a real pain.
Kayson 10-9-06 & Cohen 02-08-10
I love our upgrade. We have had it a year and just paid for another year. I have over 16,000 pics on ours. It is the best pic site I have used for that many photos as photo bucket hit a limit too and was not as user friendly.
Sorry I upgraded my photobucket a long time ago (hence why I use photobucket).

You are too sweet Charys. I have the same problem. I am over my limit too, and I don't plan on upgrading. I still haven't shut off our internet at home. It's just not something I want to do yet. We shop online often, so I still want it. Thanks for thinking of me though.

We've all heard of mission statements and vision statements, but what about brand statements? I think a brand statement is a critical element of strategic planning that should be written at every level of a business. In other words, a corporate brand statement should be created as well as brand statements for each business unit, branded product line, and so on.
A brand statement is a touchstone for both employees and consumers to communicate the intrinsic value of the brand as well as provide direction for where the brand is going in the market. A brand statement can motivate employees and define the company's brand promise and message quickly and succinctly. In other words, a brand statement cuts through the clutter and shouts out loud what the brand stands for in no uncertain terms.
A brand statement is more than a tagline. It's an expression of where the company is and a tool to guide the company in the future. The brand statement is also the touchstone that every business decision should circle back to in order to ensure efforts don't run counter to it. For example, if a new product is under consideration, run it up against the brand statement to ensure it's complementary. In short, your brand statement can act as a consistency test to ensure your business efforts promote your brand rather than confusing consumers and hurting it.
Do you have a brand statement? If not, create one, then communicate it to your employees, clients, business partners, consumers and anyone else who will listen. Don't just make a poster with the statement on it, hang it in the office and forget about it. Instead, live your brand statement in every part of your business.

Ghuman, Sharon , Vu Manh Loi, Vu Tuan Huy, and John E. Knodel. 2005. "Continuity and Change in Premarital Sexual Behavior in Vietnam." PSC Research Report No. 05-585. November 2005.
We examine trends in premarital sexual behavior in the Red River Delta and Ho Chi Minh city and surrounding environs in Vietnam using data collected in 2003-2004 from men and women married during three different periods in Vietnamese history. We also describe levels of premarital sex by type of sexual partner (spouse or non-spouse) and with whom individuals first have sex. The recent increases in premarital sex among men in the Red River Delta have led to convergence in the levels of premarital sex between northern and southern Vietnam, although there are important regional differences in whether men have sex before marriage with someone other than their future wife. Women are considerably less likely to report having had premarital sex than men. The findings are compared to those from other recent surveys conducted in Vietnam, and their implications for the spread of the HIV/AIDS epidemic and the measurement of related behaviors in surveys are considered.
Country of focus: Vietnam.

Karen Dietz's curator insight, November 25, 2:48 PM
Here's a great piece colleague Jim Signorelli put together about how story theory works better as an approach in branding than giving a list of essential story elements or simple story structures.
Right on Jim! It won't take readers long to go through this SlideShare piece and reap the benefits. Of course I love Doug Lipmans story dynamics chart on slide 18, the Identification Filter (oops Jim, there's a typo here!) on slide 20, and the motive chart on slide 27.
The definition of story beginning on slide 37 is OK and goes beyond what most people produce. I'm biased though. I like what Peggy Van Pelt from Disney and I came up with oh so many moons ago -- "a story is an act of communication providing packets of sensory material and an emotional narrative arc allowing listeners to quickly and easily internalize it, understand it, and create meaning from it."
I like this definition because it focuses not on what a story is, but on what it does. What's the lesson here? There is no 1 right definition. Be aware of the variety of existing story definitions and use the one that fits your objectives at that particular time.
OK -- enough said. Enjoy the insights in Jim's post and keep the light for storytelling well lit and tended!

Release Date: 05/14/2013 |
Album Rating: 3.5Digging the artwork but don't know anything about this band though
Album Rating: 3.5The album is good, but it gets boring towards the end. They rely too much on that traditional sound, which is cool, but it's too much at some point. Also, I found Capricorn slightly better.
Digging: Brant Bjork - Black Flower Power
Album Rating: 4.5I felt the solos made it less boring, loved that record
Not skramz
the fags on the last.fm page because of this band are intolerable
Pretty cool record, but it's more like a 3.5.
Digging: Lux Occulta - Ko?ysanki
I'll probably check this out. Review is short and sweet, pos.
Digging: Witchfynde - Give 'em Hell
Album Rating: 4.5Thanks for the input on the review Manosg. I felt it was a little too short, was I wrong?
Orchid dudes should sue for using their name
Digging: Bobby Barnett - Little Wounds
There is no way they give a shit
suing and lawyers are totally un-punk
Digging: Autechre - LP5
This band took over the most played for last week on last.fm though
If you can get the message through with a short review that's fine. On the other hand, a long review needs to be interesting in order not to bore the reader. Your review is a bit short but it's fine.
Good band.
Digging: Pink Turns Blue - If Two Worlds Kiss
faux orchid
Digging: Heaven In Her Arms - Duplex-Coated Obstruction
True music listener listen to Orchid (Alexander Tooth) and Orchid (indie pop). [3]
needs skramz agreed
Digging: Hail Mary Mallon - Bestiary
good dig, reichy ^.^
Digging: Chansey - Natural Cure
thanks idk why they aren't more popular
I was actually thinking about reviewing this since it has been awhile since I have done a review. I love Capricorn, that is where I feel in love with them, but this album had to grow on me. I feel like though, on this album, they expanded their sound from just Black Sabbath. Songs like "Nomad" and "Marching Dogs of War" show some of their own identity. Good review though.

College Newsletter
Message from the Dean
With this edition of our College Newsletter, we are proud to share new developments in the College of Education at the University of Illinois.
The preparation of educators is one of the most significant contributions we make to society. With that in mind, we have redesigned our teacher education program so that it is central to our College and draws on the best faculty across each department.
Therefore, we are pleased to announce the launch of I-Teach I-Lead, a program that emphasizes collaboration, innovation, and cultural understanding, and at its core recognizes that new technology is changing the way we engage with learning and create knowledge. Producing knowledgeable, compassionate, resilient educators is the goal of our professional teacher preparation program. Concurrently, we also have created a new undergraduate degree for educators who are not seeking licensure but want to transform others in alternative settings in the U.S. and internationally.
The College is also delighted to welcome a new cadre of outstanding, collaborative, and tech-savvy faculty colleagues who are prepared to lead and engage in classrooms and online. We have always been proud of the fact that our practicum work is enhanced by professors who are themselves researchers, and these new instructors certainly fit that mold. This distinctive edge has produced many future teacher-leaders who graduate from our College with vast expertise and classroom skills.
In all our endeavors, we have tried to reinvent ourselves while maintaining our relevance in a world that continues to expect much from educators. We are ready to address the grand challenges of our time and hope that the stories highlighted in our newsletter convey our continued sense of innovation, progress, accomplishment, and excitement.

This game has great graphics and amazing atmosphere, though I recommend if you do another series that you as the pentacle was in the wrong direction, and satanic cults are not a thing. Other than that I really loved this game.

Posted Wednesday February 20, 2013 --- 5:45 p.m.
Back in October of 2012 someone attached a credit card skimmer to an ATM outside of a grocery store in the Village of Prairie Du Sac. That skimmer along with other pieces of equipment helped crooks collect debit card and pin numbers of close to 200 people living in the area.
Police Chief Gerald Strunz says, " The common denominator in all of these accounts were that cards had been used at a single ATM located in the Village of Prairie Du Sac. "
In November the Bank of Prairie Du Sac notified police after customers complained about missing money. Total $114,000 was lost and police say things could've been worse.
"The only thing that's stopping them from emptying out bank accounts are that the banks have really good procedures in place to limit your daily withdrawls. "
The crook's trail of victims doesn't just end here in Prairie Du Sac. It extends down to Illinois and out towards the East Coast.
Chief Strunz says, " We've seen activity in Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania as well as New York and New Jersey. "
Earlier this week two men were federally indicted for their role in what's being called an international skimming scam. Total there were close 6,000 victims and more than $3-million dollars was stolen. But police still need help identifying and finding one of the men.
So you don't become a victim police recommend routinely changing your pin number and checking your account.
Police also say if you don't want to get scammed you should check your ATM before inserting your card. If the card reader moves police say it is probably a skimmer and you should alert authorities right away.

Bloomberg: Incubator Platforms: the Benefits of Infrastructure and Distribution
Start-up hedge fund managers face conflicting issues today. On the one hand, managers are acutely mindful of the need to control capital expenditure. Rising costs of regulation and compliance challenge the ability to build traction in funds. On the other hand, funds realize the importance of having an institutional-quality infrastructure from day one, an expensive proposition, in order to appeal to increasingly demanding institutional investors.
So how should managers counteract the opposing forces of reducing costs to stay lean and mean yet still present themselves as a serious business? One option gaining popularity is the incubator platform, which provides an entire infrastructure, a risk management framework and takes care of all service provider agreements. The incubator platform leaves the manager to focus on one core task: running the investment strategy.....

March Results Better Than Ross Expectations
Tuesday April 16th, 2013 - 12:14PM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
Ross Stores, Inc. posted a 6% sales increase to $1.04 billion for the five weeks ended April 6 versus the five weeks ended April 7, 2012. Comparable store sales for the month rose 2% year over year.
In a conference call, John Call, group senior vp and CFO, said accessories and juniors were the strongest performing merchandise categories in March, while the Southwest, Pacific Northwest and California were top-performing regions.
Michael Balmuth, vice chairman and CEO, said in comments on the results, "March same store sales outperformed our guidance for a 1% to 2% decline and were on top of exceptionally strong prior year comparisons. As a reminder, these results were impacted by the holiday calendar shift, with Easter Sunday store closures occurring in March this year versus April last year. Looking ahead, we continue to forecast a 5% to 6% increase in April comparable store sales. Based on our quarter-to-date results, and our outlook for April, we now project earnings per share to be slightly above the high-end of our previous range of $1 to $1.04 for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. This updated forecast compares to 93 cents for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012."

The Wong Ah Fook mansion before (above) it was demolished, leaving a pile of rubble (bottom) in Johor Baru.
JOHOR BARU: The owner of the land, where the 150-year-old Wong Ah Fook Mansion once stood, is believed to have demolished the building to make way for a commercial housing development.
Johor Baru City Council (MBJB) chief whip Datuk Yahya Jaafar said the state government had wanted to acquire the 0.44ha land and was in the planning stages to do so.
He claimed that the landowner, a Johorean living in Singapore, might have been worried that the state government would acquire the land at a price lower than the market value and thus hastily demolished the mansion in the middle of the night last Wednesday.
"The land in the Jalan Lumba Kuda area in the city centre where the mansion stood is worth a lot due to the surrounding development under Iskandar Malaysia.
"That could be why the landowner was in such a hurry to tear down the mansion to develop a commercial property in its place," he said yesterday.
Yahya said the acquisition process would usually take some time and the landowner might have been trying to take advantage of that.
Wong Ah Fook, after whom the city's main street is named, was the chief government contractor who built some of the most recognisable heritage buildings in Johor, including Istana Besar, Balai Zaharah, the residence of first Mentri Besar Datuk Jaafar Mohamed at Bukit Senyum and the Johor Baru prison in Jalan Ayer Molek.
Wong was born in 1837 and died in 1918 at the age of 81.
Yahya said MBJB was investigating how the contractors tore down the mansion in the middle of the night.
"We did not receive any application from the landowner to demolish the mansion. An application must be submitted to the local council for approval before doing so.
"This is a standard procedure for landowners who wish to expand, renovate or demolish a building or house," he said.
Yahya said the Johor Baru mayor would issue a summons to the owner of the land for demolishing the mansion under the Local Government, Planning and Development Act soon.

I have a pretty big MongoDB document that holds all kinds of data. I need to identify the fields that are of type array in a collection so I can remove them from the displayed fields in the grid that I will populate.
My method now consists of retrieving all the field names in the collection with
This was taken from the response posted here MongoDB Get names of all keys in collection
mr = db.runCommand({
"mapreduce" : "Product",
"map" : function() {
for (var key in this) { emit(key, null); }
"reduce" : function(key, stuff) { return null; },
"out": "things" + "_keys"
And running for each of the fields a query like this one
db.Product.find( { $where : "Array.isArray(this.Orders)" } ).count()
If there's anything retrieved the field is considered an array.
I don't like that I need to run n+2 queries ( n being the number of different fields in my collection ) and I wouldn't like to hardcode the fields in the model. It would defeat the whole purpose of using MongoDB.
Is there a better method of doing this ?

Big plays highlighted a big win for Waunakee Friday night as the Warriors advanced to the third round of the playoffs with a 34-7 win over DeForest.
The Norskies shutdown the Waunakee rushing attack in the first half, but they could not contain quarterback Will Decorah's arm. On the second play from scrimmage, Decorah launched an 80-yard touchdown pass to Will Helbing to put the Warriors up 7-0.
The Norskies tried to rally a response later in the first quarter, but cornerback Ryan Kruser picked off Kyler Jilot and returned the interception 48 yards for a touchdown. The Warriors took a 13-0 lead after a failed extra point.
Decorah kept the Warriors flying later in the first. The senior quarterback hit Willie Freimuth in stride for a 52 yard touchdown, giving Waunakee a 20-0 lead.
Waunakee extended their lead in the second as Decorah and Kruser connected on a 26-yard touchdown to put the Warriors up 27-0 at halftime.
Decorah completed only four of his passes in the first half, but three of those went for touchdowns.
Waunakee will face either Watertown or Waukesha West next week.
