Catherine Ngai/MEDILL
The extraordinary growth of the Shanghai Futures Exchange has grabbed the attention of CME Group Inc., the London Metals Exchange and other exchanges that have traditionally dominated metals futures, despite Shanghai's trading only in China.
Shanghai Futures Exchange was ranked No. 1 in metals futures and options trading volume in 2009 by the Futures Industry Association, the U.S. trade association. By supplanting the London exchange, Shanghai signals that the continuing robust growth this year could make it a powerful leader in the world futures exchanges despite its brief 12-year existence.
Last month, Shanghai reported almost twice the tonnage in zinc futures – approximately 77 million – on the London exchange, which traded 41.2 million. Considering that London ranks zinc as its third largest contract, Shanghai's rapid rise could mean a persage in an epic battle for power and market share.
The Shanghai exchange was formed in 1998 after a resurrection of the Chinese futures industry. Before that, China's communist government suspended futures trading for 60 years and shut down more than 40 exchanges, that analysts cite as price manipulation.
To some, Shanghai's rise is not surprising.
"The vast majority of growth in metals demand is coming by China," said Gayle Berry, a commodity research analyst at Barclays Capital PLC in London, in an interview. In past research notes, Barclays includes a section on metals prices in Shanghai and Tokyo. "It has been far the most dominant force in the market in the last decade, and its share of global consumption is now the largest by any factor and for any individual country."
The exchange currently offers futures and options on copper, aluminum, zinc, gold, steel rebar, natural rubber, steel wire rod and fuel oil.
Despite its lack of history, the Shanghai Futures Exchange has grown rapidly. Its newest contract, rebar, a steel reinforcement used in concrete, began trading in March 2009 and was ranked first by the FIA metals futures and options trading volume contracts, even higher than London exchange's most active contract, primary aluminum futures.
"I think it's really servicing the demand that's already there," said Josef Schroeter, president of CQG Inc., a multiplatform analytics company in Colorado that offers data services and electronic trading. "They have done the right things to invest in technology, they've done their homework in preparing their market and they've been fairly methodical in introducing new contracts."
Although monthly volumes have skyrocketed at Shanghai, and in some cases, increased by 7400 times from last year, volumes alone do not indicate market share.
"No measure of exchange size or even contract size is completely adequate," said Nick Ronalds, executive director of Futures Industry Association Asia. "Volume tells you one thing, but it doesn't tell you the size of the contract."
Taking a closer look, contract sizes at the Shanghai Futures Exchange are somewhat smaller than those traded in London, New York or Chicago. While Shanghai reported approximately 9.1 million copper contracts traded last month, the lot size is one-fifth smaller that of London, which reported approximately 3 million contracts traded in the same month. Thus, the tonnage is higher in London, even if the contract volumes are lower.
"This has always been an issue. They don't adjust for size," Ronalds said.
London Metals Exchange was ranked No. 1 in metals trade volume in 2008 by the Futures Industry Association. Its largest futures contract, high-grade primary aluminum, traded 4.1 million contracts last month. Its second largest contract, grade A copper, is also traded at the Shanghai exchange, though volumes are much smaller.
Although Shanghai exchange, also called SHFE, has overtaken London in tonnage for zinc, there's another side of the story.
"It is worth noting that SHFE is purely a regional exchange whereas the LME produces global reference prices involving trade from Chile to China," said Stephen White, business manager of corporate affairs at the London Metals Exchange, in an e-mail.
Some argue that the Chinese infrastructure is unstable and prices are in a bubble. Another argument against Shanghai is that traders are more speculators than hedgers who are trying to manage risk, White said. This allows them to increase volume because of the immense numbers of contracts bought and sold.
Schroeter doesn't buy the argument.
"That might have been an argument at one point in time. I don't think that's the case any more," said Schroeter, who recently visited China and met with representatives from the exchanges. "I think that the Chinese . . . have an overwhelming amount of money they're able to devout to technology and education. Now, it's a matter of how we in the West can participate in the East and add value to it."
Shanghai Futures Exchange declined to comment for this story.
China is one of the fastest growing nations and is the world's top consumer of copper. At the moment, only companies based in China or with a subsidiary there are allowed to trade at the Shanghai Futures Exchange.
However, analysts believe that this regulation will be eliminated and ultimately allow global players to trade at the online platform exchange.
The greatest debate, at this point, is when.
"I think that the Chinese are extremely methodical. They're not in a hurry when foreign exchange has tried to push them or foreign traders have tried to push them," Schroeter said. "The other thing is that they're spending a lot of time in educating people on how to trade effectively. They're creating an environment there that's really conducive there to trade."
Keming Liang, a research associate at the American Institute of Economic Research and a native of Shandong province in China, explained that the government creates the China-only barrier as a defense mechanism.
"I think the purpose of that could be protecting the local economy," Liang said. "I think also, in a sense, that they could bring the foreign companies and have them work with Chinese companies and use foreign technology and more than management experience to promote Chinese companies."
Shanghai is not a threat to Chicago's dominance in the futures game – yet.
CME Group has a relatively small market share of metals futures, but a dominant control over 100-ounce gold sold at the COMEX, a division of the CME subsidiar, New York Mercantile Exchange. In March, it traded 4.4 million gold contracts, a total of 13.6 million kilograms. In contrast, Shanghai traded approximately 49,000 kilograms.
NYSE LIFFE has an even smaller U.S. market share of gold futures. It posted a 1.28 percent market share in the same contract last month.
CME Group has tried to keep in touch with the Shanghai exchange. There is a memorandum of understanding with Shanghai, designed to allow better understanding of each other's markets.
Berry thinks that the growth in China might slow down in the next 10 years as has been in the past decade.
"I think we've come through a very rapid growth phase in terms of industrial growth and metals consumption growth. It's unlikely that very fast pace of growth is going to be sustained and indefinitely," she said. "But the scale of the growth size of the country will continue to expand and become an even bigger player."
Even though the Shanghai Futures Exchange is thriving in a closed environment, many agree that once the barriers are diminished, the growth of this exchange will be even greater.
Will Acworth, editor of the Futures Industry Association's magazine, reasons that this will create a "true level playing field."
Although the future remains unclear, Acworth said that traders in Chicago, New York, London and worldwide should pay attention to what's happening in the East.
"Even if the futures exchange is closed, the commodity itself moves across borders," Acworth said.

CORTLAND, N.Y. (AP) -- New York Jets cornerback Aaron Berry will miss the season after injuring a knee on the first day of practice at training camp.
Berry, expected to compete for the No. 4 cornerback spot, went down midway through practice Friday when he got tangled up with wide receiver Joseph Collins. Berry writhed in pain as trainers and coach Rex Ryan checked on him. He remained down for several minutes before walking gingerly off the field under his own power.
The Jets signed Berry last October after he was arrested twice last summer and cut by the Detroit Lions. He played in seven games for New York before being placed on injured reserve with a hamstring issue.
Berry was signed by Detroit in 2010 as an undrafted free agent out of Pittsburgh.

Wordpress 2.8.3.: New Security Release
The 2.8.3 release of the free blog software Wordpress fixes some privilege escalation problems left over from a previous version.
It seems a hijacked URL was enough to allow registered users access to option pages like those for plugins and themes. These issues have now been fixed, say Wordpress developers.
The privilege escalation problem was supposed to have been fixed in version 2.8.1 but obviously some areas were overlooked, regrets developer Ryan Boren. The version 2.8.3 download can be found at Wordpress.org.

Hammond police say they have identified a vehicle possibly used in a burglary at the state Office of Motor Vehicles branch in which the vehicle backed into the building and left with an automated teller machine.
Police believe someone drove a white 2012 Nissan Altima into the building.
Police say the Altima was seen around 2 a.m. Tuesday leaving the parking lot of Times Square, where the office is located.
Albany police received a complaint at 6:20 a.m. Tuesday of a white 2012 Nissan Altima being stolen.
Investigators believe the vehicle reported stolen was the same one used in the burglary.
Police still do not have a description of the car's occupants.

She bites a lot and can be very rough, especially with our hands and clothing. I KNOW she needs a lot of exercise, but she is so afraid of noises, that she won't walk with me, or even play out in the yard for long. I take her to obedience class and to the pet stores to be socialized, but I am at a loss how to deal with the biting w/o the benefit of exercise. Or how to encourage her to go for walks.

If all goes according to plan, Liberty County voters will know this week who will succeed commission chairman John McIver, whether board of education District 2 incumbent Charlie Frasier will keep his post and whether to plan for a January tax increase.
The Liberty and Long boards of education both are compliant with a new state law that requires governments to share their budgets electronically, but some other local entities are not.
For Long County residents who wish to avoid the election-day crowds Tuesday, today is the final day to cast ballots in the early and advanced voting.
Five candidates offered many opinions but few concrete ideas and even side-stepped some questions Tuesday at the Shuman Recreation Center during a forum leading up to the July 31 primary.
The chain-link fence that has surrounded the Historic Liberty County Courthouse for more than a year is slated to come down this week.
Hinesville leaders prioritized, discussed and made plans last week to deal with 38 economic, administrative, ordinance-related or construction project issues during their annual planning workshop at Jekyll Island.
The Midway City Council denied a zoning request for a new shopping center at its July meeting.
Hinesville leaders stayed issue-focused during their annual planning workshop last week at the Jekyll Island Club Hotel. Participants first arrived at the hotel Wednesday afternoon and began prioritizing the 38 issues to be discussed. Their workday ended around 7 p.m.
The Liberty County Board of Commissioners on Thursday weighed projects that will continue downtown Hinesville's visual transformation.
Undecided voters for local elections will have the chance to hear directly from the candidates in three contested Liberty County races in a political forum exactly one week before the primary election.
OMI workers Wednesday installed the first of 15 new bus shelters at the Live Oak Public Library Hinesville Branch bus stop on Memorial Drive.
The Long County board of commissioners made two decisions at its July 10 meeting that will affect future elections in the county.
Liberty County Elections Supervisor Ella Golden said Wednesday that more than 415 voters cast ballots at the Memorial Drive early voting location, and there were no complications.
The final T-SPLOST town hall meeting Wednesday drew more opponents, though the crowd was more amicable than at last week's meeting.
The long journey for two dogs that rose to local celebrity status ended Saturday in Liberty County where one was reunited with her family and the other revisited the place where she made history.
Hinesville's Homeless Prevention Program celebrated 16 years last month. Program Coordinator Daisy Jones said her department of three had modest beginnings, but it now networks with dozens of churches, civic organizations and service agencies dedicated to helping the homeless and hungry in Hinesville and Liberty County.
The first action item on Thursday's Hinesville City Council meeting agenda was to approve a revised budget for fiscal year 2015.
Fewer than a dozen Midway residents joined Liberty Consolidated Planning Commission officials Thursday at the Liberty County Community Complex to discuss and assist updating the Midway subarea land-use map.
The Liberty County Board of Commissioners heard a financial report from county Chief Financial Officer Kim McGlothlin at its mid-month meeting Thursday.
An otherwise-routine employment process with the Long County roads department has received the attention of the county commissioner responsible for that department.
The National Weather Service has issued a tornado watch for Liberty, Long, Bryan, Wayne, Chatham and most of eastern Georgia until 6 p.m. today.
About 175 students at Fort Stewart's Kessler Elementary School attempted a world record in cup stacking Thursday.
After more than an hour and a half debate Thursday over possible cuts to make up a $1.3 million budget deficit, city leaders conceded they have to increase the property taxes by .94 of a mill, though maybe less.
In 1943, Sgt. Frank Moore was a soldier with the Army's 4th Infantry Division, XII Corps. As he and his unit prepared for the Allied invasion at Normandy, he spent a summer in Coastal Georgia, sleeping in the fields of Camp Stewart.
The Local Joint Management Board of the MidCoast Regional Airport met Thursday to discuss plans for the runway-extension project, among other business.
Failure of the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax referendum to pass in last week's election was hardly mentioned until the end of Thursday's city council meeting.
As part of his administrative report to Liberty County Board of Commissioners during Tuesday night's meeting, County Administrator Joey Brown advised commissioners they'd have to talk about the county's budget at the next meeting if the referendum for the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax did not pass.
Liberty County voters on Tuesday decided that they did not want to see another round of the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax. The referendum to approve another six-year SPLOST period failed in a race that came down to a difference of 90 votes.
The Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax referendum proved to be the race to watch Tuesday night, as Liberty County voters nearly were split down the middle on whether or not the 1 percent sales tax would see another six-year term in the county.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/29/13 -- The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating the growth of Linux, today announced that Axis Communications, D-Link, O.S. Systems and Perforce are joining the organization.
Each of today's new members has a desire to maximize their investment in Linux and the collaborative development model. By joining The Linux Foundation they can accelerate software development and build more innovative products faster. Through collaboration in Linux Foundation workgroups, networking at events and contributing to the Linux development community, these companies will broaden opportunities to expand their businesses with Linux.
More information about today's newest Linux Foundation members:
Axis Communications is a market leader in network video and a driving force behind the shift from analog to digital video surveillance, paving the way for a smarter, safer and more secure world. Offering network video solutions for professional installations, Axis is a Sweden-based IT company whose products and solutions are based on an innovative, open technology platform.

Lately, I have come across a lot of people suffering from It-Could-Be-Worse (ICBW) Syndrome. Symptoms include:
- Dismissing socio-political concerns due to the fact that worse problems exist somewhere in the world
- Putting issues on a hierarchy based on what "deserves" attention and what doesn't
- Belonging to single-issue causes only
- Denying the larger socio-political and historical contexts of issues
For example, according to some (mostly white) pro-Palestinians, the regular murder of Black people in the USA should not even be considered a problem, due to the fact that people in Gaza are being killed at a faster rate. They actually argued against Palestinians showing solidarity towards Ferguson because of this. I don't think they went far enough. Wait! No, forget Gaza, because millions of people worldwide starve to death every year. But forget starving people! Because climate change will soon wipe us all off the earth, killing billions! It's exhausting, and always comes to one inevitable conclusion: Only the worst of the worst problem in the world deserves any attention by anybody, and there is of course a clear hierarchy based on number of dead bodies/value of the lives taken/etc.
The argument can be used against people with mental illness too, and it is especially personal then. "Get off your ass and stop being depressed; there are starving kids in Africa" is one that I've heard and read so many permutations of, it's hard to count. Note the reference to the entire, diverse, second-largest continent in the world as a homogeneous "country." Africa is a favourite scapegoat of people with ICBW Syndrome. Mental illness is perhaps the most poorly understood category of illness, and even the most aware of individuals can succumb to ICBW Syndrome when mental health is being addressed.
I was recently talking to a guy about the elections in New Zealand, discussing the recently exposed corruption of our current government, which has now made world-wide press. He said it didn't matter, because things in Iraq were much worse. People killed to be in political power there! He then went on to say how spoiled New Zealanders were because we have a benefit system and public healthcare (which has, ironically, been cut significantly by the current government).
This is, of course, ignoring the larger problem: In this case, that corruption exists at all, and infiltrates even the most "stable" democracies. But another problem with socio-economic and historical context was revealed by that conversation: That even in the countries in the world with stronger social protections in place, poverty is still a problem. By claiming that Kiwis are spoiled, this guy was blaming the poor for their poverty in New Zealand, because they couldn't cope even in a system that wasn't as horrific as what some have experienced in Iraq.
This argument is one I see more from well-off people who are from wealthier countries, especially those who have visited poorer countries. They insist that the poor here need to suck it up because at least it's nothing like [insert poorer country here]. Instead of acknowledging that things are bad here too, it's an either/or kind of logic. People with this syndrome cannot connect issues across borders, and therefore it is impossible to understand how a global system like capitalism or imperialism could be a causal factor. They cannot see how liberal reforms act as Band-Aids that mask some, but not all, problems with capitalism in wealthier countries.
ICBW Syndrome is a very dangerous disease. It causes not only apathy, but actual victim-blaming and brings sometimes otherwise liberal people to adopt surprisingly conservative ideologies. Initial acknowledgement of the insidiousness of capital is an effective treatment and can stave off the worst symptomes, but it is not a cure, as even socialists aren't immune. Only a constant, critical analysis of the interconnected effects of capitalism, racism, and imperialism can protect an individual from the antisocial verbal vomit associated with ICBW Syndrome.

Instead of campaigning for Congress on Election Day, Justin Kuhnle went to his job as a social services case worker. He said he had meetings with four clients in two cities.
"The individuals I serve, they come first, because I'm a case manager, and that's where my passion's at," Kuhnle said Tuesday afternoon. The congressional campaign "is taking it to the next level, as far as to care for everybody," he said.
It looked iffy throughout the evening as to whether his campaign would even continue. In the end, the Kendallville resident emerged as the winner of a tight three-way Democratic primary.
Kuhnle topped perennial candidate Tommy Schrader of Fort Wayne by 93 votes out of 8,203 cast in the 12-county 3rd District. Kuhnle received 35 percent of the ballots and Schrader 34 percent. Jim Redmond of Auburn had 31 percent, 308 ballots behind the leader.
Asked whether the margin felt too close for comfort, Kuhnle, 33, said "a little bit. Like I tell people, every vote counts."
Kuhnle beat the unemployed Schrader in Allen County by 202 votes, but Schrader won seven counties to Kuhnle's three and Redmond's two.
Schrader had finished second and Kuhnle fourth in the 2012 Democratic primary won by Kevin Boyd.
Stutzman gets 82 % of the the GOP vote
The winner's prize Tuesday is the chance to face two-term Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-3rd, in the Nov. 4 general election.
Republican voters nominated the LaGrange County farmer by a huge margin, giving him 82 percent of about 58,900 votes cast. Mark Baringer of Fort Wayne received 9.4 percent and Jim Mahoney of Huntington got 8.5 percent.
"I think it's a reflection of the job I've been trying to do in Washington, and people have appreciated that, and I don't take that lightly at all," Stutzman, 37, said in a telephone interview. "We're going to continue to do the same things, continue to work hard just doing the job.
"The policy, if you do that right, the political side will take care of itself," he said.
- For more election coverage, click here.
Stutzman was in Washington on Tuesday as Congress is in session this week.
Stutzman has raised more than $860,000 in campaign contributions during the current election cycle. Kuhnle had collected $714 through the end of March. None of the other primary-election candidates has filed campaign finance reports.
In other Indiana congressional districts:
•Democratic Rep. Peter Visclosky, D-1st, and Republican Mark Leyva were nominated in the northwest 1st District.
•Republican Jackie Walorski and Democrat Joe Bock were nominated in the north-central 2nd District.
•Republican Rep. Todd Rokita and Democrat John Dale were nominated in the west-central 4th District.
•Republican Rep. Susan Brooks, who grew up in Fort Wayne, and Democrat Shawn Denney were nominated in the central 5th District.
•Republican Rep. Luke Messer and Democrat Susan Heitzman were nominated in the eastern 6th District.
•Democratic Rep. André Carson and Republican Catherine Ping were nominated in the 7th District in Indianapolis.
•Republican Rep. Larry Bucshon and Democrat Tom Spangler were nominated in the southwest 8th District.
•Republican Rep. Todd Young and Democrat Bill Bailey were nominated in the southern 9th District.

Photos and Description of this 1 bedroom holiday home in Roatan
Amazing View - 1 Bedrooms, 1.0 Baths, (Sleeps 2)
This unique house is in the jungle canopy and sulks above the exquisite West Bay Beach. Sipping a morning coffee on the deck you can usually spot an iguana or two, occasionally macaws fly overhead, and a variety of exotic birds and lizards of all descriptions cavort in the trees all day long. The house, artist-built and designed, is small, private, secure, perfect for two people and cute as can be.
Small, i.e., a conservative yet good functioning and well-designed simple 16 x 16 feet each floor with an 8' x16' deck on each level. Up eleven steps leads to the air-conditioned bedroom/bathroom/shower and on the top level is the kitchen great room living room, complete with a bar and chandelier. Ceiling fans are at each level if you prefer the luxury of ocean breeze.
Random power outage rolls on Roatan and there may be several occasions when you have none for a few hours. It comes back. Keep a flashlight handy.
Be informed: the stairway to this house takes you from sea level to +190' in short order. Don't pick this property if you are fat or have a heart condition because the steps are a built-in mandatory Stair-master. Seriously. As Yoga practitioners, Zumba dancing, ski guides and swim/bike enthusiasts, we love this detail, but it's not for everyone.

This month's Free First Saturday will focus on cinema, though not the actors and actresses who stand in front of the camera. Instead the emphasis will be on those who labor behind it. The museum will host activities including an art project where children can make their own phenakistoscope (a spinning disk that creates the illusion of movement), storytelling, and an activity sheet exploring one of the Walker's current exhibitions, "Event Horizon." The most exciting event will be the Girls in the Director's Chair Showcase, featuring 22 films created by female filmmakers age 12 to 18. Presented as part of the Women with Vision International Film Festival, this project was entirely youth-driven, and was curated by six teen filmmakers. Screenings are at 11 a.m., 1:30 p.m., and 3 p.m. (OCD by Leah Gossman)

The EchoSoft™ MSK ultrasound software, our breakthrough, tablet-based product, will allow treating clinicians to provide low-cost, real-time initial diagnoses of musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries. Additionally, EchoSoft™ software can accurately and objectively measure patient progress during rehabilitation. These advancements can potentially:
Echometrix products enable real-time diagnosis to differentiate between tissue strains and tears. The ability of treating clinicians to provide rapid diagnoses allows patients to begin appropriate treatments sooner than by conventional diagnoses (e.g., MRI). This is important given the frequency and volume of musculoskeletal injuries:
The use of MRI for the diagnosis of sprain and strain injuries are expensive, and will create a $2.5 billion cost problem by 2020. The advanced technology found in the EchoSoft™ MSK ultrasound software allows for immediate and precise diagnosis using ultrasound, and will significantly reduce medical imaging costs, while providing the benefits of immediate and precise diagnosis musculoskeletal injuries and monitoring of treatment.

My Navy Blue Dance Studio Pants were made in Canada! I was shocked when I looked at the tag and i even left it on which I never do. I noticed there is an extra line of stitching on the waist. Also they have not pilled at all! :)

Posted December 26, 2013 --- 6:55 p.m.
Hitting the sledding hills and cross country skiing paths is finally a reality thanks to the recent snow, but there are a few things you should remember before heading outdoors.
It can be so exciting to run up the hill hop on the sled and go, but sledding can be pretty dangerous if you're not careful, watching where you're going is really important.
St. Mary's hospital put out a press release saying 20,000 kids are hurt in sledding accidents alone each year. And they have some advice to get that number down.
They say children should be wearing helmets and goggles or wrap around sun glasses while sledding, skiing, and skating.
They say you shouldn't sled anywhere that slopes towards a road or parking lot, and lastly, they say keep an eye on the kids. If parents aren't going to be out at the hill, make sure that an older sibling or friend is staying with the younger ones.
Quincy Miller was out sledding, he says he always watches for broken sleds, or pieces of broken sleds that can be left on the hill, and he makes sure to bundle up.
Doctors say if your kids go out sledding, make sure to have they dress warmly, if the temperatures are in the teens, any exposed skin can get frost nip in a matter of minutes.

WASHINGTON--Drones don't just end human life, they also save it, a panel of industry executives and government officials told journalists Wednesday at the National Press Club.
From forest fires in California to the radioactive destruction at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Japan, unmanned vehicle systems have given first responders the technological edge they need to expand their reach without putting themselves in danger, allowing them to make critical decisions to maximize the productivity of scarce resources.
"First responders around the world are using robots to increase the distance between their operators and the dangerous environments" they encounter regularly, said retired Lt. Col. Charlie Dean of the U.S. Army, director of business development for the unmanned systems group at QinetiQ North America.
Retired Maj. Gen. David Heinz of the U.S. Marine Corps, now vice president of the iRobot Corporation's maritime division, also spoke of his company's deployment of 4 robots--two 30 lbs robots and two 300 lb robots--to the Fukushima devastation site a week after the disaster. The company's robots were the first into the reactor cell, opening the inner door and providing the first access to the Unit 1 reactor. The high radiation levels in the reactor, Heinz said, would have killed a human being within 90 minutes.
QinetiQ also deployed unmanned systems to the Fukushima disaster site, including its robotic application kit that turns Bobcat frontloaders into an unmanned vehicle in approximately 15 minutes. After conversion, Japanese first responders were able to control the unmanned Bobcat with an X-Box controller, moving debris and giving other smaller and more agile unmanned systems access to the disaster site, said Dean.
iRobot also deployed an underwater system used during the Gulf Oil spill to track the oil plumes satellites couldn't see. The system can operate for 9 months and dive to depths of 3,300 feet and provide data on the water column its maneuvering through, Heinz said.

Cameron Diaz in Esquire: Holy Hotness!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
This just in Cameron Diaz: is incredibly attractive.
No, really.
Often overlooked on lists of the Most Desirable Women in the World, Diaz is featured in the latest issue of Esquire, scoffing at the critics and even giving Kate Upon a run for her sexy money.
By flashing her breasts and her body. Keep the drool off your keyboard and click around now:
"For the first time in my life I'm content," Diaz tells the magazine. "I'm so excited. Getting older is the best part of life. Like, I know more than I've ever known. I have gratitude. I know myself better. I feel more capable than ever. And as far as the physicality of it – I feel better at 40 than I did at 25."
This issue of Esquire goes on sale November 4. We will be buying six dozen copies.
So... Cameron Diaz: Would you hit it?
Okay... EVERYONE...type in Camron with out make up, and Camron on the beach with A Rod into google search, and you will see how beautiful she really is. Me and my wife thought it was a man in a bikini. Camron walks around like her stuff is the best, but sorry she's no Megan Fox, more like Michael j Fox. No Michael is much better looking. Sorry mike

July 9, 2010
A substitute driver and a monitor face felony child neglect charges after a 5-year-old boy was left on a Richmond school bus for about an hour.
Deputy Commonwealth's Attorney Mary E. Langer says the driver, 43-year-old Alvin Matthews of Hopewell, and the monitor, 60-year-old Irene Jenkins of Chesterfield County, were each charged Thursday with one neglect count.
Richmond schools spokeswoman Felicia Cosby says a monitor was assigned to the bus because it was for children with special needs.
The boy has autism and asthma. He was riding a school bus Tuesday morning to Summer Hill Elementary School for a summer educational program. He was still on the bus when it returned to the school bus depot.

Hey everyone. I got nuttin' today. I'm in Atlanta getting ready for my Lightroom seminar and, well, you know the story. I did have a post just about finished on some cool web portfolio/gallery stuff that I think you'll like but it accidentally got deleted half-way through writing it. After that, I kinda lost steam for finishing it on time so I'm holding it for Monday. But if you're looking for a cool way to show off your photography in a web portfolio, then make sure you stop by Monday and check it out.
Have a great weekend and if you're in Atlanta today come by and say hi at the seminar

In need of a quick fix
As agency officials look for products to speed up the task of applying security patches to system software, they can choose between stand-alone products that focus solely on automated patching or systems management suites that perform other functions besides patching.
The choices they make may be based on the software infrastructure for their particular agency, industry experts say.
"Patch management is a software distribution problem," said Mark Nicolett, a vice president at Gartner Inc.'s research division. So, the question to ask, he said, is: "Does the organization have software distribution employed and, if so, does it have the capability for patch management?" Also, they should consider how effective the software distribution system is, because there are a fair number of ineffective distribution solutions.
If an organization doesn't have a good software distribution infrastructure, then a stand-alone automated patch management product may be the way to go, he noted. Such tools can be deployed quickly and are not complex to configure, Nicolett said.
Several of the leading players that offer products that focus solely on patching include Big Fix Inc., PatchLink Corp., Shavlik Technologies LLC and St. Bernard Software Inc.
Some of the companies that provide either configuration or systems management suites that also include automated patching capabilities include Altiris Inc., ConfigureSoft Inc., Computer Associates International Inc., Ecora, LANDesk Software Ltd., and Opsware Inc.

Topic: Technical Support / 2 games got deleted & can't restore from my backup
Okay, good news, I finally got it fixed.
I deleted the files, then copy/pasted the backup files in their place, and was able to load my saves.
Apparently deleting the new files makes all the difference; pasting in copies of the original files & overwriting the new files (like I originally did) doesn't cut it. Gotta delete THEN replace.

Great Lobelia (Lobelia siphilitica)
Sometimes called "Blue Cardinal Flower" because of its strong resemblance to its close relative the Cardinal Flower, L. cardinalis, with which this species apparently hybridizes. The unattractive species name comes from an old belief that it was a treatment for syphilis. The Plant Fact Sheet (PDF) from the Natural Resources Conservation Service adds that "The Meskwaki ground up the roots of this plant and used it as an anti-divorce remedy." What America needs today is more ground-up Lobelia siphilitica roots.
The flowers are variable in color: some are solid pale blue, some darker blue, and some—as here—strongly bicolored. A white form is found occasionally.
Like the Cardinal Flower, this Lobelia likes damp situations; these were blooming at the end of August in a roadside ditch near Cranberry.
Gray describes the genus and the species:
LOBELIA [Plumier] L. Calyx 5-cleft, with a short tube. Corolla with a straight tube split down on the (apparently) upper side, somewhat 2-lipped; the upper lip of 2 rather erect lobes, the lower lip spreading and 3-cleft. Two of the anthers in our species bearded at the top. Pod 2-celled, many-seeded, opening at the top. — Flowers axillary or chiefly in bracted racemes ; in summer and early autumn. (Dedicated to Matthias de l'Obel, an early Flemish herbalist.)
Flowers blue, or blue variegated with white.
Flowers rather large (corolla-tube 1-1.3 cm. long), spicate-racemose; stem leafy, 0.3-1 m. high; perennial.
Leaves ovate to lanceolate, numerous; lip of corolla glabrous.
L. siphilitica L. (GREAT LOBELIA.) Somewhat hairy; leaves thin, acute at both ends, 0.5-1.5 dm. long, irregularly serrate; flowers nearly 2.6 cm. long, pediceled, longer than the leafy bracts; corolla light blue, rarely white; calyx hirsute, the sinuses with conspicuous deflexed auricles, the short tube hemispherical. — Low grounds, Me. to Ont. westw. and southw.; rare eastw.
The pictures in this article have been donated to Wikimedia Commons under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication, so no permission is required to use them for any purpose whatsoever.
Heal-All (Prunella vulgaris), White Form
Heal-All, or Self-Heal, is everywhere; it tolerates a good deal of mowing, and seems to be indifferent to sun or shade, so it can establish itself in urban lawns as easily as at the edge of the woods. The color of the flowers is variable; this white form, however, is quite unusual. This patch grew in St. Michael's Cemetery on the South Side Slopes, where it was blooming in the middle of August.
Gray describes the genus and the species:
PRUNÉLLA L. SELF-HEAL. Calyx tubular-bell-ehaped, somewhat lO-nerved, naked in the throat, closed in fruit ; upper lip broad, truncate. Corolla ascending, slightly contracted at the throat and dilated at the lower side just beneath it, 2-lipped; upper lip erect, arched, entire; the lower reflexed-spreading, 3-cleft, its lateral lobes oblong, the middle one rounded, concave, denticulate. Filaments 2-toothed at the apex, the lower tooth bearing the anther; anthers approximate in pairs, their cells diverging. — Low perennials, with nearly simple stems, and 3-flowered clusters of flowers sessile in the axils of round and bract-like membranaceous floral leaves, imbricated in a close spike or head. (Name said to be from the German Bräune, a disease of the throat, for which this plant was a reputed remedy. Often written Brunella, which was a pre-Linnean form. )
P. vulgàris L. (HEAL-ALL, CARPENTER-WEED.) Leaves ovate-oblong, entire or toothed, petioled, hairy or smoothish; corolla violet or flesh-color, rarely white, not twice the length of the purplish calyx. — Woods and fields, Nfd. to Fla., westw. across the continent. June-Sept. (Eu.)
Var. laciniata L Some upper leaves tending to be pinnatifld. (P. laciniata L.) — Said to be introd. near Washington, D. C. (Adv. from Eu.)

Soft Agrimony (Agrimonia pubescens)
Agrimonies are notoriously difficult to sort out, so we would welcome a correction if this identification is wrong.
These delicate racemes of yellow flowers appear in the open woods, and you are likely to miss them if you are not looking for them. The plants in these pictures were blooming in North Park in early August.
Older references usually list this as Agrimonia mollis, a synonym. Gray describes the genus and the species:
AGRIMONIA [Tourn.] L. AGRIMONY. Calyx-tube top-shaped or hemispherical, the throat beset with hooked bristles, indurated in fruit and inclosing 2 achenes; the limb 5-cleft, closed after flowering. Petals 5, yellow. Stamens 5-15. Styles terminal. — Perennial herbs, with interruptedly pinnate leaves, crenate-serrate leaflets, and small spicate-racemose flowers. Bracts 3-cleft. (Name a corruption of Argemone.)
Fruiting calyx more or less top-shaped, deeply furrowed.
Leaflets (exclusive of the little intermediate ones) chiefly 5-0, ovate to obovate or elllptic-oblong.
Rhachis appressed-vlllous or glandular-puberulent, without long widely spreading hairs.
Boots fusiform-thickened toward the end; lower surface of leaflets velvety-tomentose, scarcely or not at all resinous-dotted.
Larger leaflets 5-9, oblong or elliptical; fruiting calyx 4-5 mm. wide (exclusive of spreading hooks).
A. mollis (T. & G.) Britton. Grayish-pubescent, 6-15 dm. high; leaflets oblong, mostly obtuse, soft to the touch on both surfaces; fruit broadly top-shaped, the hooks borne on a broad disk, the outer widely spreading. (A. pubescens Wallr.?) — Open woods, dry ground, etc., Mass. to N. C, and westw.

Lolipop Teenies Sophie - All natural teenie fucked hard on couch
Hot teen Sophie was a frisky little teen cutie with a nice nubile bod she didn't mind showing off. Quickly stripping down to her white cotton panties I decided to give her a lollipop since she has quite a sweet tooth. Watching her suck that pop made me wonder if she's equally adequate at sucking bigger, harder, and meatier things! Sexy Sophie got so fired up that horny Lolita batman she ditches her panties and rubbed on her sweet moist pussy! I decided to sample that sweet young pussy and boy I wasn't disappointed munching on that neatly shaved fish taco! She quickly ditched her lollipop exchanging it for my big fat boner sucking it hard till it was ready to pounce on her tight teen pudenda!

For the Budding MMOG Designer
Gamasutra has a very interesting rant on Why Virtual Worlds are Designed By Newbies.
Lots of grist for the mill here. Basically, a game succeeds or dies based on its ability to keep attracting new players. So, it has to cater to those new players and must acceed to their preconceptions.
An interesting read….
