The wish to acquire more is admittedly a very natural and common thing; and when men succeed in this they are always praised rather than condemned. But when they lack the ability to do so and yet want to acquire more at all costs, they deserve condemnation for their mistakes. Niccolò Machiavelli

It is of the nobility of man's soul that he is insatiable: for he hath a benefactor so prone to give, that he delighteth in us for asking. Do not your inclinations tell you that the WORLD is yours? Do you not covet all? Do you not long to have it; to enjoy it; to overcome it? To what end do men gather riches, but to multiply more?

Ghanaian kente, its uses and role in African-American identity and culture, is showcased at the Bessie Smith Cultural Center through March 16.
" 'Wrapped in Pride' is a captivating and interactive exhibition that will be certainly enjoyed by visitors of all ages," said Carmen Davis, education director of the Bessie Smith Cultural Center. "The exhibit provides an excellent opportunity for the community to learn more about the African culture and its art forms."
Kente has its origins in the former Gold Coast of West Africa as festive dress for special occasions -- traditionally worn by men as a kind of toga and by women as upper and lower wrappers. During the past 40 years, as kente's popularity has blossomed, the cloth has been used in hats, ties, bags, shoes, jewelry and many other accessories worn on both sides of the Atlantic.
Developed by the National Endowment for Humanities, "Wrapped in Pride" is composed of 108 objects and more than 500 examples of the vibrantly colored kente cloth. The show explores the art of making kente, its symbolism in the cultures of Africa and the expression of identity in black culture.
Visitors to the exhibit will begin by exploring kente weaving traditions, seeing examples of historic and contemporary kente and numerous objects incorporating its patterns. Some objects are specifically designed for guests to touch.
The show also highlights how kente was used throughout African as garment and ceremonial cloth and how it is incorporated in today's American fashion designs.
Bessie Smith Cultural Center, 200 E. M.L. King Blvd., is open 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday and noon-4 p.m. Saturday. Admission is $7 for adults, $5 for seniors/students, $3 for children 6-12 and free for children under 5. Call 266-8658.

If it going to be the "cultural center", perhaps they should celebrate the culture of all races and not just the black man. Their sign still says "African-American" center. I wonder if the Jacksons and Sharptons of our nation and city would be upset if there was a "Caucasian-American" center that celebrated white history and culture? Is there a double standard in our society? Equality means not lifting one race above another...meaning one race doesn't get a special center and the others don't, one race doesn't get special scholarships and the others don't. Why is there not a Congressional White Caucus?
bluedagger, what are you blabbering about? There was a celebration of Indian(India) culture at the center only a few short months ago. There have been other cultural celebrations as well. Now, before you spew off at the mouth in the future try doing some research and make sure your brains are loaded before shooting off at the mouth.

The Anita Reefer costume is waaaaaay over priced for what it's made of. The material is see through first off which the photo provided does not indicate nor does the description. For the price you would think you would get a quality material but no this is like a tissue of polyester. regarding length, i am 5'1 and the dress length came just above my knees. I know I am short but a description of how tall the model is that is modeling the costume would be nice. Great idea for costume but I would make it instead of wasting your money on this one.
As for the Dr. Ben Dover lab coat. Same thing. Over priced for what's it made of. It should be an actual lab coat like you wear at e medical office for the price. This one is made of paper thin disposable type material like if you are in medical field compare to a disposable surgical gown.

Mark Zuckerberg may be having the best week ever. Despite Facebook's great financial gains in 2012--it made about $1 billion in profits--the company will pay no federal or state taxes. Instead, the tech giant is set to receive a return of $429 million. What's more, Facebook will receive $3 Billion in tax breaks over the course of the next few years.
According to Fox News, this is due to employees cashing in their stock options. In doing so, the government treats this as wages and Facebook gets a sizable deduction in return.
"The employees cash in stock options, and at that point there is tax deduction for the company. Usually it doesn't wipe out companies whole tax bill, although many companies get big breaks from it," said Robert McIntyre, a representative from Citizens for Tax Justice

Dec 10, 2012Who would have ever believed that Rocky VI would be good?! Oh how we laughed at Stallone's desperation! Then we saw the movie. Rocky Balboa is the best Rocky movie by FAR and is one of my favorite movies of all time. It makes me cry and feel unbelievably happy every time I see it. Absolutely perfect!
Nov 26, 2011This is a far better ending to the franchise then what Rock 5 was. The acting was solid but it still follows the same basic Rocky formula. I liked how the film was more serious this time around and focused on the problems Rocky faced outside of training for his opponent.
Oct 23, 2010He was right: it aint over till it's over. Rocky Balboa is a tender, poetic picture, and when you watch it, at least, when I watched it - and I've seen it twice - you will be struck by the honesty of the filmmaker. Stallone may not be a great director in the sense of traditional greatness, but his greatness is with the real truth by which he tells this story. He WANTS it told.
Oct 25, 2010Rocky Balboa is a great film, which brings back nostalgia. It completely stands on it's own but also is a great sequel to Rocky's franchise. It's a movie which brings back you to the roots, and has a charm of Rocky I and II. The story is really well made, the characters are great and interesting as always. The story brings you in Rocky's perspective right away. Nostalgia is a main engine of this movie and if you want remember good old days of Rocky you should definitely check it out. It's little bit disappointing that there is no Survivor song in the movie, but it's good that there is a main Rocky theme "Gonna Fly Now". In conclusion the movie is really worth watching. It's nostalgic, depressing at the moments, but at the end leaves you with warm emotions. I really enjoyed it and in my opinion its better than III and V. If you're a fan of Rocky, this movie won't disappoint you… Expand
Aug 17, 2011I got the feeling this movie was meant to be more like the first one. We have some action here, but it is almost fully in the background of the main story. This is about ending a great series of movies telling a story about a guy from the slums who fought his way to glory but still remained a human being with all his faults and tragic events. I have never thought Silvester Stallone for a bad actor, average maybe, but still making excellent movies. In this one he plays it really well. We see a broken down boxer struggling to live his life without his wife Adrien, trying to recreate the connection with his son lost somewhere along the way of him growing up. Throught the film he visits the old spots from the previous movies, recalling his biggest moments in life and how it could all have gone a whole different way. He tries to return to the ring one last time to show that the great Rocky Balboa is still here, living amongst us. The champion he challenges is also a likeable characterm not over the top. A guy who respects Rocky deep inside, but he also must maintain his own glory as the best in current times. Also Rocky does it kind of funny, as he is perfectly aware of his age and limitations. This film does not feature the typical villain - hero duel from previous Rocky movies. More like both boxers are level headed persons with their own problems. The music is top class, acting is good. Directing is spot on. The story is well thought and executed. When watching the intro I felt as if I was to be dissapointed. Couple of hours later I was both happy and sad for Rocky, as the story has really ended.… Expand
May 31, 2011"Yo Adrian! We did it!" Stallone nailed it! This is a beautiful film that truly measures the importance of an aging life and how one copes with losing a loved one and being the "has-been". This film wanders into sweet nostalgia and stays there the whole time, all the while lingering on heartbreak, redemption, and inner peace.
Feb 18, 2012Very epic film. Rocky 'The Italian Stallion' Balboa shows that if you want something, you can go get it if you work hard for it. The Rocky series is one of the most epic and awesome movie series there is, and i don't think that there will be movies like this in the close future... Old movies FTW!!!
Feb 29, 2012It doesn't match up to the first two, but it improves over Rocky III, IV, and V and Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) returns facing hardcore challenges you wouldn't expect.
Aug 28, 2014I swore for years I would never watch a single Rocky movie: they're not my type, and I could not dislike Stallone any more than I do.
But ever since I got interested in Milo Ventimiglia, I could no longer avoid this final part of the series. The others I won't bother to watch.
To my surprise, the movie was rather good. The growth of the plot was predictable, there was nothing surprising there - and then again, Stallone's performance was rather good. Like a man who has been hit in the head one too many times, but who still cares. The relationship between father and son (Stallone/Ventimiglia) grew from ragged to whole. The change was perhaps a little too swift, but then again, that was not the point in the movie the makers wanted to highlight, I suppose.
The big fight in the end, which was the goal of the whole movie, wasn't something spectacular. Realistic, yes, but that's about it. Once you've seen something like that, you've seen them all.
Great words about fighting and never giving up, though. Inspirational.… Expand
Mar 11, 2012Its a lot better ending to the franchise then Rocky 5 but still an un-needed one really. Its pretty much a combination of every other Rocky film. It was ok and worth the watch but I still feel it was un-needed.
Jul 12, 2012This Rocky went in the right direction and went back towards the style of the first two Rocky movies, just when the cheesy 80's style was starting to wear on us. Very touching and the fight scene is well-made.
Nov 28, 2012ONE OF THE WORST MOVIES ever all they did was talk the whole time and rocky was like 60 fighting a 25 yr old and the match wasnt even legit this movie sucked id rather be someones slave then watch it ever again.
Jan 1, 2014As someone who has sat through all of the Rocky movies, there was no better, more emotional way to bring the entire legend of Rocky to retirement. A roller coaster of emotion and a nostalgic nod to the seasoned Rocky fans this conclusion really couldn't have been more well done, plenty of heart and plenty of spirit, that's what Rocky is all about.
Sep 10, 2014Sylvester Still got the fight in him, truly inspirational,totally loved it,a good feel film, rocky balboa has heart ,excellent screenplay ,a lot of touching moments, good supporting cast, good acting and direction by sylverster, i loved that dialogue- "it ain't about how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward" i will do that ,if u not watch this film yet,go and watch it, another favourite quote " it ain't over till 'it is over "… Expand
Apr 17, 2014The wonder and awe of the Rocky movies is the fact that even 30 years after the first movie's release, the series still feels revitalized and rejuvenated. Watching Rocky Balboa, nostalgia of the first movie will hit you like a wave, but it's a wave you'll enjoy riding.
Nov 13, 2013Rocky Balboa boxes for one last time.
A tale of loss and of redemption. Rocky Balboa finds a way to win hearts in this underdog story of true ability by the drive of one man.
Nov 19, 2014Rocky Balboa was FINALLY the sequel that faithfully captured the spirit of the original. Rocky II was simply so that Rocky could win the championship, III and IV were Rocky in some kind of alternate cartoon action universe, and Rocky V was about Rocky not boxing which equals terrible. But this movie comes along and it's like I'm seeing the Rocky I met in the original for the first time in over thirty years. Like the first film, it's all about the characters and the whole theme of being true to yourself and trying your best. Not to mention, we get to see Spider Rico again! No overwrought dramatics about winning the un-winnable fight against some cartoon supervillain like a Clubber or a Drago. There is no villain in this one. Mason Dixon as the current champ isn't a cartoon, he's a fully fleshed-out character who is as troubled about this fight for his own reasons as Rocky is. Without giving away who wins, Rocky himself compliments Dixon as a great champion after the final bell. In the end, it doesn't matter if Rocky wins or loses the fight. Just like in the first movie, he's already won.… Expand
There is much to poke at in Rocky Balboa, yet the movie, with its amusingly updated ''Gonna Fly Now'' montage and its very niftily staged climactic bout, summons just enough incredulous wit about just how often Rocky has been around this particular block to let Sylvester Stallone earn his nostalgia.
Just when you're ready to puke, the old Bill Conti theme ("Gonna Fly Now") kicks in -- are you feeling it? -- Stallone steps in the ring and every day is Christmas. All together now: Rock-ee! Rock-ee!
Defies all expectations with a low-key, technically stripped-down production that really does come close to capturing the heart and soul of the original.

Highway billboard causing concern in local community

A Galveston County strip club is creating a stir with their controversial billboard featuring scantily dressed women.
The billboard is right off the Gulf Freeway near the Galveston Causeway as you're leaving Galveston.
The owner told Local 2 that he put the billboard up a few months ago and it's not even a real picture, it's actually a painting.
Local 2 also reached out to the club's owner, who said this is not the first.
Deputies say they've reached complaints regarding the billboard, but they say no laws or ordinances are being broken.

Judy Garland
Of the 10 seldom-heard tracks on this LP, seven came from Broadway musicals or were originally written for movies, most of them featuring Garland. All the tunes were recorded from 1939 to 1946, before that penetrating sense of tragedy and world-weariness began taking over Garland's voice, for better or worse. This is the upbeat Judy, especially in a sprightly, endearing duet with Johnny Mercer (a unique, gravelly voiced singer as well as a great pop composer) on Cole Porter's Friendship. There's also a poignant version of I'm Always Chasing Rainbows. (MCA)

So much public health concern, so much smoke. Earlier this month a horrified New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg reportedly dispatched the NYPD to Madison Square Garden to halt a Rolling Stones concert. It seems guitarists Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood were puffing onstage in violation of the city's strict no-smoking policy. Now, anyone can see that cigarettes are the least of Keith and Ronnie's problems. It's a fair guess that the nicotine surging through their veins is the only thing keeping them from joining the ranks of the undead. Yet it's this brand of very public "public health concern" that drove 50 state's attorneys general to craft a $246 billion settlement with the nation's tobacco companies in 1998--"a major victory for public health" as it was then billed.
But a Yale University study published in a recent issue of The New England Journal of Medicine reveals almost none of the tobacco settlement loot has been spent for health care or smoking prevention/cessation programs. Instead, most of it was flushed into pet state programs--thereby tying fiscal health to maintaining a steady cadre of smokers--and other fascinating causes. Alabama funneled $500,000 of its share of the settlement to the state's tobacco farmers.
So you'll have to excuse the skepticism when Mayor Laura Miller and the Dallas City Council say their decision to pass a smoking ban in the city's restaurants and bars was done in the name of public health. Set to take hold March 1, the ban prohibits smoking in restaurants, restaurant bars, hotels (excluding guest rooms), hotel bars, the Dallas Convention Center, bingo parlors and bowling alleys. Not only that, but the ordinance stipulates that bars (venues that generate 75 percent of their revenues from alcohol) must establish separate smoking and nonsmoking areas and provide nonsmoking areas around the cashier, essentially banning bar bellying with a smoke. These restrictions were passed despite the absence of a public outcry, restaurant industry cooperation with the city's Environmental Health Commission to implement recommended changes to the city's smoking ordinance, huge restaurant industry investments in ventilation systems over the past several years and the fact that patrons can easily drive short distances to escape the restrictions. City officials stated that the restaurant industry provided no credible studies showing that the ban would adversely impact their economic health. Which perhaps means the council should take its public health motives to their logical and laudable conclusion and ban the sale of cigarettes in Dallas. Then again Mayor Miller is talking about pursuing a cigarette tax to pay for police and fire department salaries. So maybe we should do our part for public health and city services and chain-smoke around the valet.

I think the Thunder analogue is flawed in at least one way — Durant is simply too one-of-a-kind. Bradley Beal could be the next Dwyane Wade and we would still be missing the totally transcendent SF.
It feels like our closer analogue is the Pacers or Grizzlies and — to a lesser extent — the Sixers: Teams without a super-elite star but a more than adequate collection of above-average talents, mixing a few "very goods" with a lot of "perfectly goods" and not many "not goods."
The reality is that the elite teams in the NBA have the super-elite players — that's why lucking into Anthony Davis was so critical if you wanted this team to be a championship contender.
Instead, we are on a path — like the Pacers and Grizzlies — to make the playoffs every year in that 4th-8th seed and battle in the first round, perhaps making it to the second round once in a while but never making it out of (or perhaps even into) the conference finals.
Colloquially, this is known as the "treadmill of mediocrity," but for the Wiz, this would be a phenomenal upgrade. We might get tired of it eventually, but all we have to do is look back on our last 30-plus years of being awful to appreciate the idea of perennial playoff appearances, if not playoff success.

We may have hit a 'data breach fatigue' saturation point across the market as of late, but there were a few other security vulnerability stories swirling this past week that seemed to deviate from the standard reports.
DHS is actually probing a number of medical device manufacturers to see if there are legitimate cybersecurity vulnerabilities in a number of pumps and implantable heart devices.
One thing that comes to mind with respect medical devices with internet connectivity, is that devices, like any other technology, have evolved. Medical devices are now programmable, configurable and are more advanced to accommodate so many patient conditions, complete with automation, data collection and storage requirements.

TLC Tears Jon Gosselin a New One in Courtby Free Britney at . Comments
As we could have predicted, the TLC brass is going off on Jon Gosselin in court, calling the reality TV dad's recent behavior a downright "embarrassment."
Edward Sabin, the network's chief executive, testified in TLC's breach of contract lawsuit against Jon, scoffing at Jon's conduct over the past few months.
Among the many examples of Jon's alleged misconduct?
Sabin ridiculed Jon's decision to host a pool party at the MGM Grand in Vegas a few months ago and says TLC even forbade him from doing so beforehand.
The reason? "Jon surrounded by scores of bikini-clad women is inconsistent with the image of our show." That and it was in violation of his contract. Details.
We know. What a douchebag.
Continuing his dressing down of Jon, the TLC exec ripped him for hanging out by the fence outside of his house and chatting with celebrity gossip photographers.
That was something he did on a fairly routine basis. As was parading around with girlfriend Hailey Glassman, who he took on a trip to France over the summer.
On that trip, TLC alleges (and we're pretty sure they're correct), he met with Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier and said his children would model a kids' line.
Lastly, and still significantly, Sabin called out Jon for breaking his contract with TLC by accepting money for interviews, which he did a lot. Like nightly for awhile.
Jon Gosselin was a no-show when the proceedings got underway, but he's expected to show up for the afternoon session a bit later. Updates to come if he does.
Once again this loser, d-bag, self absorbed geek shows his true colors. He hides out and let's someone take care of this problem, his lawyers, and then will not accept any blame when it doesn't go his way. Grow up and get a life. Maybe a job would help...oh I forgot hes too famous to get a job. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL LOSER!!!!!!
Wait a minute..Jonboy had an ephipany (lol) concerning his children being in front of a camera...BUT he was quite willing to have them model clothing? HA!..Jon's a living breathing oxymoron in more than one way. He doesn't even know when he's contradicting his position, regarding his children. The pic above says it all. What an idiot. I've no doubt the reason Jonboy didn't show, was because he was stoned..probably got loaded last nite because he was afraid of being exposed for what he is, in court. Someone neuter this guy, please. We don't need more replicas of him around.

On May 20th, 2014, the California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly) Academic Senate passed a conflict minerals resolution, making Cal Poly the 17th school to go conflict-free.
"The key to all social movements is [having] allies." This observation, made by student activist and Conflict-Free Campus Initiative leader Roxanne Rahnama, encapsulates the theme of a series of recent events and developments in the conflict-free movement.
Written by Michael Kinzer and Sarah Palazzolo, co-leaders of American University's Empower Congo which took on the Conflict Free Campus Initiative's (CFCI) campaign.
This post was written by guest blogger and UNC-Chapel Hill student Danielle Allyn.
In the Kiswahili language, spoken by many in eastern Congo, methali (proverbs) play an important role in society. One such proverb reads Penye nia pana njia or, "Where there is a will, there is a way."
On October 7, Green Bay Packers Super Bowl MVP Aaron Rodgers partnered with the Enough Project's Raise Hope for Congo for a rally attended by thousands of students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Green Bay Packers and Superbowl MVP Aaron Rodgers and Emmanuelle Chriqui will host a special event for the Enough Project's Conflict Free Campus Initiative at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
The conflict-free movement is gaining momentum worldwide, with the newest development happening in Canada. In March 2013, New Democrat Foreign Affairs Critic Paul Dewar introduced a comprehensive conflict-free mineral bill to the Canadian Parliament. Bill C-486 requires companies to regularly report how they obtain their supply of minerals such as gold, tin, tungsten, and tantalum from Central Africa, particularly Congo.
Not only do universities educate students on issues of social justice, but they also serve as venues for students to organize around these issues and generate substantive change in society. Today, student leaders at Brown, Dartmouth, and Yale are seizing their opportunity to stimulate change by releasing a joint statement calling for responsible investment policies in relation to conflict minerals sourced from eastern Congo.

Probably man found agriculture and also pest handle methods virtually simultaneously, and after that, the deal with is upon.

Oct. 28 (Bloomberg) -- The bond market has deemed Olympus Corp. to be the riskiest borrower among its Asian peers amid a scandal tied to fees paid in a corporate takeover.
Credit-default swaps tied to the debt of Tokyo-based Olympus for three years rose to 895 basis points yesterday from 750 basis points on Oct. 21, according to Barclays Plc. That's the most for a technology company in Asia and nine times the 98.5 average for an index of companies in the region including Canon Inc., data compiled by Bloomberg show.
The maker of cameras and medical-equipment, which has 463.2 billion yen ($6 billion) of bonds and loans outstanding, faces rising financing costs even as the Japan's manufacturers enjoy yields that are about the lowest in seven months relative to government debt. Olympus has lost more than $4 billion in market value after the Oct. 14 firing of its chief executive officer and the resulting scrutiny of payments made to advisers in the 2008 acquisition of Gyrus Group Plc.
"It's difficult for institutional investors to justify buying bonds of companies with corporate governance issues," Takayuki Atake, chief credit analyst at SMBC Nikko Securities Inc., said in a telephone interview from Tokyo on Oct. 21. "These kind of news end up trumping earnings" and other fundamentals, Atake said.
Rating Review
Japan's Rating and Investment Information Inc. placed Olympus' A rating on review Oct. 20, saying it has become "increasingly uncertain whether the company will be able to overcome challenges on the financial front."
Olympus has 110 billion yen of bonds, which were all offered privately between 2005 and 2009, including 25 billion yen of 2.15 percent notes due July 2018, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. It has 352.9 billion yen of loans, including a 33.1 billion yen term loan due in July 2018 with an interest rate of 2.2 percent, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"Olympus has huge debt, so there would be creditors who want to hedge the risks," Taketoshi Tsuchiya, director of credit trading at Barclays Capital Japan Ltd., said in a telephone interview yesterday from Tokyo. "Taking new risks of scandal-related companies is difficult, so there are hardly any offerings."
Olympus Lenders
Olympus's biggest lenders are Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp. with 90.3 billion yen of loans as of March 31, Bank of Tokyo- Mitsubishi UFJ Ltd., which loaned 77.9 billion yen, and Mizuho Bank Ltd. with 62 billion yen, according to a June 29 filing with the government. Nippon Life Insurance Co. has 24.5 billion yen of loans, it shows.
Shinya Matsumoto, a spokesman for Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, a spokesman for Sumitomo Mitsui who didn't want to be identified, and Nariyuki Murakami, a spokesman for Mizuho, all declined to comment.
Elsewhere in Japanese credit markets, Japan Student Services Organization, an agency providing scholarship loans, sold 50 billion yen of three-year 0.278 percent bonds priced to yield 6 basis points more than the similar-maturity government debt, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Welfare and Medical Service Agency, a loans provider for private social welfare institutions and private medical institutions, hired Nomura Holdings Inc., Mizuho Financial Group Inc. and Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities Co. for a sale of three- and 10-year bonds planned for December, Nomura said in an e-mailed statement.
Government Bonds
The yield on the Japanese government benchmark 10-year bond rose 2 basis points to 1.03 percent as of 11:06 a.m. in Tokyo. The extra yield that 10-year U.S. Treasuries pay over similar- maturity Japanese debt increased to 135.9 basis points, and has widened from 90 basis points at the start of the month.
The yen traded at 75.86 against the dollar as of 11:45 a.m. in Tokyo, after European leaders agreed to expand a rescue fund for indebted nations and reached an accord with lenders on writedowns for Greek debt. Japan's currency strengthened to an all-time high of 75.66 yesterday.
The cost of insuring Japanese corporate debt against non- payment declined today, according to credit-default swap traders. The Markit iTraxx Japan index fell 18 basis points to 157 as of 9:18 a.m. in Tokyo, Deutsche Bank AG prices show.
Olympus Chairman and President Tsuyoshi Kikukawa quit this week, 13 days after Michael C. Woodford was fired for challenging $687 million of fees paid in the 2008 takeover, while the company denied wrongdoing. Woodford made public a PricewaterhouseCoopers report he commissioned that details the allegation and said he will meet with the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation and submit documents related to the fees.
Shares Tumble
Shares of Olympus have declined 38 percent since Woodford, the 92-year-old company's first non-Japanese president, was ousted Oct. 14. The stock jumped as much as 26 percent in Tokyo trading yesterday, following Kikukawa's resignation.
Investors may become risk-averse as these scandals rock the borrowers, Fumihito Gotoh, head of Japan credit research at UBS Securities Japan Ltd., said in a phone interview from Tokyo yesterday. "Bond spreads of borrowers with weak credit quality are likely to widen," he said.
Daio Paper Corp., Japan's third-largest paper-maker, said last month its chairman stepped down after borrowing 5 billion yen from an affiliate. The Tokyo-based company at the time said it created a special commission to look into the matter and expects to release a report later this month.
Wider Spreads
Yields Daio's 15 billion yen of 1.14 percent five-year notes due December 2015 jumped 119.7 basis points to 183.4 more than government bonds yesterday, from 63.7 before the resignation announcement on Sept. 16, Bloomberg data show. The spread on debt issued by global paper producers narrowed 51 to 266 in the period, Bank of America Merrill Lynch data show.
A former president of a unit company of Kintetsu Corp., a transportation services provider in the region that includes Osaka and Kyoto, was arrested for inflating company earnings and for illegal dividends, Kyodo News reported Oct. 25.
Credit-default swaps tied to the debt of Kintetsu soared to 393.8 basis points Oct. 26 from 290.2 Oct. 21, according to data provider CMA, which is owned by CME Group Inc., and compiles prices quoted by dealers in the privately negotiated market.
The contracts, which pay the buyer face value if a borrower fails to meet its obligations, fall as perceptions of creditworthiness improve and rise as they deteriorate. A basis point, or 0.01 percentage point, equals $1,000 annually on a contract protecting $10 million of bonds and loans.
Recent allegations against listed companies, including compensation paid to advisers on takeovers and unauthorized lending to a director, are "questions of compliance and management ethics at their most basic level," the Tokyo Stock Exchange said in a statement this week without identifying any companies or investors. Domestic and overseas shareholders were concerned about "underlying problems in the quality of Japanese corporate governance," according to the statement.

In the 1990 film Cry-Baby, Johnny Depp played a rebellious rocker named Wade "Cry-Baby" Walker. Walker's singing voice, however, was provided by rockabilly revivalist James Intveld, who was trying to make a name for himself. Intveld's real break came in 1996, when he was invited to contribute a track on a disc that celebrated the 20th anniversary of a Los Angeles-based indie label. His tune, "Barely Hangin' On," caught the interest of the company's executives, who invited him to cut a full disc. Intveld is currently on the road promoting his latest release, Have Faith. Though also in demand as a studio multi-instrumentalist, he still finds time to dabble in acting and directing — he recently appeared in a George Strait music video and directed the 2005 film Miracle at Sage Creek.

"The myths have always condemned those who ''looked back.'' Condemned them, whatever the paradise may have been which they were leaving. Hence this shadow over each departure from your decision."
Related quotes
"I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge - myth is more potent than history - dreams are more powerful than facts - hope always triumphs over experience - laughter is the cure for grief - love is stronger than death"
"I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?"
"Man seeks to escape himself in myth, and does so by any means at his disposal. Drugs, alcohol, or lies. Unable to withdraw into himself, he disguises himself. Lies and inaccuracy give him a few moments of comfort."

Community Health Needs Assessment, for Healthy Adams County and the Healthy York County Coalition
The Center conducted this in-depth evaluation of community health in York and Adams counties in 2012. Sponsored by WellSpan Health on behalf of Healthy Adams County and the Healthy York County Coalition, our study measured the health status of both communities, focusing especially on preventive care, behavioral health services, and access to care. The research was designed to help implement a community dialogue and set an agenda for further research about community healthcare needs and priorities.
Because there are multiple influences on community health, the Center collected and analyzed data from both primary and secondary sources to identify health issues of consequence to York and Adams counties. A behavioral risk factor survey of 1800 residents focused on the health of individuals and the incidence and prevalence of specific diseases, conditions, attitudes, and behaviors present in the communities. The questionnaire for this survey was based on the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's annual Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) survey, but customized to provide information specific to York and Adams Counties.
The Center compared current indicators for the data collected in the survey with both state and national indicators, as well as data gathered in prior community health assessments. We cross-tabulated the data to present information by age, race, ethnicity, gender, income group, and geographic area. The data were also compared with the Healthy People 2020 goals, as well as with the estimated U.S. rates for the Prevention Quality Indicators as defined by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality.
Additionally, to identify and document the multiple barriers to health improvement and their relationships to individual health behaviors, the Center collected secondary data from numerous sources, including the Healthy Communities Institute, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Pennsylvania Department of Health Bureau of Health Statistics, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the U.S. Census. Hanover, Gettysburg, York, and Memorial Hospitals and Family First Health provided relevant inpatient and outpatient data.
Using the data from all these sources, the Center examined a number of demographic and health indicators, including access to health care, health-related behavioral risks, prevention behaviors, health conditions, and vital statistics related to cancer, communicable disease, maternal health, mental health, mortality, and hospitalizations. Selected economic, education, environment, infrastructure, public safety, and transportation data were also evaluated. The data were examined for the community as a whole, for York and Adams counties individually, and for the Hanover area of Adams County.
The Center's findings were presented at community planning events in both York and Adams Counties, and provided valuable information on key health trends and the most urgent health-related issues. The data indicated that both counties have notable strengths, including strong healthcare infrastructure, healthy economies, and increasingly diverse and well-educated populations. However, our assessment found that far too many residents struggle to maintain healthy lifestyles, and the rate of depressive disorders and poor mental health days is especially troubling. In addition, the population is aging, the poverty rate is rising, and significant numbers of individuals are overweight or obese. Also, poverty and age are significantly associated with differential outcomes related to access to healthcare, health conditions, and prevention behaviors. Armed with this important information, the Healthy York County Coalition, Healthy Adams County, and their community partners have been able to set new countywide health goals and create several task forces to examine how to reach these goals.
