TomDavid Architecten recently unveiled plans for a soaring leaf-shaped canopy that would transform a market square in Casablanca, Morocco. Developed for the [AC-CA] Competition, the design consists of structures made from concrete that would provide much-needed shade from the scorching sun. The enormous petal-shaped structures would also collect rainwater and channel it into underground tanks for future use.
TomDavid Architecten's Casablanca pavilion would store and recycle rainwater for use in public toilets, while trash disposal chutes would be hidden between the towering columns to direct litter underground into bins. The award-winning project also incorporates an elevated plaza and an underground level which the Dutch studio says will provide infrastructure for the existing legal and illegal markets that operate in the neighboring streets.

This Belgian gothic rock band saw the light of day somewhere in 1996. The year after that they entered the studio to come out of it with the first CD "Iron Dust Crush". Immediately they gained a lot of positive response in the press all over Europe. This resulted in their first festivalgigs in Germany, Belgium and the UK. The song Nineties topped the alternative charts in Israel and is even now still a dancefloorfiller in alternative clubs. During the summer of 1999 the "New Millennium e.p." was released on that years Eurorock festival in Belgium. Followed in 2001 by the full CD "Velvet". This was the period where Star Industry played a lot of big festivals . On the 20th of April 2007 Star Industry released an even darker and more powerfull album, "Last Crusades". Massive drumwork and strong cold guitars are again succesfully combined with strings and electronica.

I do Pilates nearly every day.
I did not get any housework done yet today.
I decided to catch up online before tackling the housework.

Hey ruben, Thanks for playing along this week :-) though I'll admit, some of your answers sound fishy to me... sorry, couldnt' resist a little fishing humor ;-)
Happy Birthday to your son! Enjoy your visit with him.

Hey Chris,
I tried posting back to your response here on Saturday when I was over at my parents but the page wouldn't load and this is the first chance I've had since then to come back and retry.
So what's the latest on the account hacker. That's just awful. I hope they catch the person and you're able to get all your money back.
When will you get the bunny? What type of bunny? Has she decided on a name?
Hope your week is going well.

Hey Marty!
Thanks for taking a few moments to play with us this week in our friday five ;-)

Hope you're having a great week.

Nothing new on the hacker, just that it is female and from New York and they have tracked email addresses and phone numbers!

I hope that hacker doesn't get away with it! How frustrating. (((HUGS)))
and I can't wait to see pictures of her new little bunny. What a smart girl to figure out what no one else is getting!
The pastor of our church recently got married and they just bought two drawf rabbits for his step daughter. This is the same pastor who plays electric guitar and added the first ever contemporary christian music service to our nearly 200 yr old church, lol. I joked with him that people are talking about how the rock-n-roll preacher is turning the parsonage in to a bunny house ;-)

I may end up taking the mulch kit off the Toro GS and use it as a SD and maybe add a bagger for scalping and heavy leaves. I just can't see paying $14k for the GHS. Thanks for all the help. Will post an update when I get it.
Posted via Mobile Device
Posted via Mobile Device
I was going through the same thought process as you are right now a few months ago. I have a GHS machine as well and sold my Exmark to find something that could fit in all of my gates.
I ended up going with the MBK 23 EFI 48 inch mulch deck. Let me tell you I love this machine. It does an awesome job and I can't tell a difference between the cut this leaves compared to my GHS. The machine does great on hills, much faster than the GHS and quality of cut is just the same. In tall wet grass you might have to double cut, but the second cut goes very fast and I'd much rather cut it twice than bag it. No clippings to deal with at the end of the day. The deck will actually load up with wet grass before it leaves a bunch of clumps on the yard. Just be sure to keep the deck clean in wet conditions. I paid $8,000 before taxes for the machine and deck.
I'm now wondering what to do with the GHS. I need it for scalping some yards in the Spring and for some leaf collection in the Fall, but other than that it's a backup. I'm thinking about next season just getting another 48 inch mulch deck for my GHS unit. If you have any other questions I'll try and answer them, but this has been the best mower I've had so far.
That is a good price.... I have called several dealers and all are $7350 for tractor and $2230 for 42" deck before taxes. I am thinking of going in and offering a little lower to see if they will do it.
Do you know if the arm rests and light kit would be worth the money? And also how can I tell I I'm buying a 2013 model and not an older stocked model they couldn't sell? Serial number tell me that?
Posted via Mobile Device
Sent you a PM.
Hey there CurbAppealKS, didn't mean to call you out there bud.... Just trying to make a point and give my opinion... The fact is, Walker lovers were having this problem before the MB's were just a sparkle in Dean's eye..... Of course, throughout different parts of the country (and now the world) folks have different needs for dispersal or collection. Sure, Walker has always offered the strictly SD machine but the point is that the whole MB lineup is at a better price point right?
And BCR840...... I'm confused...... I thought you were having trouble deciding which machine to go with right? Not sure how long you have in the industry or how much Walker experience you have but I was simply trying to shed light on the fact that taking care of the clippings from the Walker hopper is not a day long process akin to climbing Mt. Everest as some on this site would have you believe. And to be perfectly honest, the guy that came to give you the demo is exactly correct by saying that you should have an MB and a GHS on your trailer at all times. But what he failed to tell you and what I am saying now is that this can be accomplished by running a GHS and keeping an SD deck on the trailer.... Sure, the MB's are awesome... I personally wish that I could have one of every Walker model there is (including the walk behind, that thing is so cute) However, putting a SD deck on the GHS takes all of 5 minutes and there is your MB right there for a fraction of the cost. But either way good luck and have fun, it's super exciting getting a new machine.....

Video compilaton of bad calls in Bronco-Raven game
View Single Post
Ring of Famer
Join Date: Jan 2006
Posts: 1,559
[QUOTE=BigPlayShay;3782943]List the plays and I can do it.
1. PI call on Tony Carter when we would have had great field position
to go up 10-0 or 14-0. It was a very ticky tack call especially in a
playoff game. I've seen that not be called hundreds of times.
2. No PI in Decker on pick 6. Instead of being up maybe 10 we are down
7.....17 or 21 point swing. And the thing is if you call the one on
Carter right before that you have to call this. This was clear PI,
Carter's was questionable.
3. Play before missed field goal Suggs hits Hester way before ball
gets there. Next play is a missed FG and Baltimore ends up scoring to
tie it
4. Again no PI when the guy clearly hits Decker in the back before the
ball gets there. We were driving but end up punting and they tie it
5. Holding on Kuper on third and 1 on a play that was half a second
long. We were driving but end up punting and they tie it. Not sure I
have ever seen a holding call on a third and 1 quick handoff up the
middle. And the replay showed it was not holding.
6. Fumble by Manning. Arm was moving forward when ball started to come
loose and he never re-gained possession. Should have been incomplete.
This is debateable but why does Brady get the tuck rule and nobody
else does?
7. PI on Bailey in OT on third down. What? I don't even know what to say here
8. Catch by Boldin in OT on 3rd down. Ball hit the ground and even if
they say it didn't he was bobbling it and by the time he got
possession he was out of bounds. We would have had it at midfield
needing a FG to win
Would be awesome if you did this!!
A couple of them (Boldin's catch) make sure to get the replays in there too. Not just the live play

County Executive John R. Leopold Unveils Security Street Light Program to Increase Public Safety
October 17, 2007 (Annapolis) - In an effort to improve safety and security in Anne Arundel County communities County Executive John R. Leopold will kick off the Security Street Light Program with a ceremonial dig on Monday, October 29 at the intersection of 11th Avenue and 1st Street at 9:30 a.m. where there first light will be installed.
The ceremony will include brief remarks from the County Executive, BGE officials, and citizens who were instrumental in the execution of the security project and will also feature a special presentation by Park Elementary School students.
County Executive Leopold initiated the Security Street Light Program by putting $300,000 in the Fiscal Year 2008 Budget to target communities where better street lighting could deter crime. Mr. Leopold has asked Anne Arundel County Police Department officials to identify areas within neighborhoods that would benefit from increased security lighting and then coordinate with the Department of Public Works for installations, upgrades, or relocations where utility or fixtures already exist or need be installed for lighting.
Information and notices about the installation or upgrades will be sent to residents approximately 2 to 4 weeks prior to work. Nearly 220 new street lights are expected to be installed in FY 2008 and about 30 more existing streetlights will be upgraded.

Competencies in Animal Assisted Therapy in Counseling: A Qua
litative Investigation of the Knowledge\, Skills and Attitudes Required of
Competent Animal Assisted Therapy Practitioners
\nby Leslie A Stewar t
Existing authors (Reichert\, 1998\; Watson 2009) have described the unique positive impact of Animal Assisted Therapy in Counseling (MT-C) on the client's perception of the therapeutic alliance as well as the pro fessional counselor's ability to build positive alliances quickly. When im plemented with appropriate education and training\, AA T-C can positively impact the therapeutic experience of a diverse range of clients across a w ide variety of settings (Chandler\, 2012\; Fine\, 2004). AAT-C requires a specialized set of skills and competencies that allows professional counse lors to incorporate specially trained animals into the counseling process to influence the therapeutic process in ways that are beyond the scope of traditional counselor-client helping relationships (Stewart & Chang\, 2013 ). However\, there is currently no definition of counseling-specific compe tencies to guide practitioners in this specialty area. To address this gap \, the presenters conducted an investigation using the Grounded Theory Met hod (Charmaz\, 2006\; Guba & Lincoln\, 1989) to address the following rese arch question: What knowledge\, skills\, and attitudes are required of com petent practitioners of AAT-C? Based on the themes and subthemes that emer ged from the data\, the authors constructed a theoretical framework which represents competencies in AA T-C. Using this theoretical framework\, the authors uncovered a total of nine essential competency areas for professio nal counselors utilizing AAT-C. They are divided into three domains in acc ordance with the competency framework that includes Knowledge\, Skills\, a nd Attitudes (Myers & Sweeny\, 1990).DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20140310T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20140310T150000 GEO:+33.753452;-84.389033 LOCATION:College of Education\, room 1025 @ 30 Pryor Street Southwest\, Geo rgia State University\, Atlanta\, GA 30303\, USA SUMMARY:Dissertation Defense – Leslie Stewart URL:http://education.gsu.edu/ai1ec_event/dissertation-defense-leslie-stewar t/?instance_id= X-TAGS;LANGUAGE=en-US:Department of Counseling and Psychological Services\, dissertation defense END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR

cant for the next series, very enjoyable.
Murder on the Homefront
Thu May 9, 9-10pm, ITV
Thu May 2 2013
CommentsAdd +
Time Out Ratings :<strong>Rating: </strong>3/5
Series one, episode one
This new thriller is loosely based on the memoirs of Molly Lefebure, who was secretary to Home Office pathologist and pioneer of modern forensics Keith Simpson during World War II. From a ratings point of view, it's a shrewd commission – there will always be a certain level of audience take-up for gloomy atmospherics, air raid sirens and spivs in fedoras. As a drama, though, this will need time to bed in.
Doctor Lennox Collins (Patrick Kennedy) may be a forensics man but he's a TV detective in spirit – maverick, unpredictable and not entirely risk averse. In fact, the blurring of the lines between his emerging profession and the more stolid police work that surrounds him is one of the main sources of intrigue. One suspects that Lefebure would be delighted with her fictional counterpart, the flighty and vivacious Molly Cooper (Tamzin Merchant) who emerges as Collins's partner in crime during this opener. Three women are dead. But can the pair dodge the Luftwaffe for long enough to nail the killer? Very much of its type, but perfectly watchable.
Users say
Loved it bring on the next series .
Loosely based on Molly Lefebure's memoirs? Only the title and the leading lady's first name have anything in common with the book ' Murder on the home front'! The depiction of the "Keith Simpson" character is so far from his own memoirs in his own book 'Forty years of murder' as to be a travesty. No wonder they waited for both Molly and Keith SImpson to die before writing this rubbish as they would be in danger of being sued for defamation of character. If screen writers want to change so much they should think up an original idea not use and abuse original material.

The Time When Your Life Changes Forever, And You Wish That You Still Believed In Santa Claus
You know, on the List of Things Predictable Moms Say To Their Daughters That Shock The Hell Outta Them, Honey, I'm and assassin, blows way, way, way out of proportion. It totally beats Darling, I'm sleeping with your boyfriend, or, Sweetie, you have a sister I haven't told you about. She's your grandfather's, which in my opinion is pretty tough to beat.
But instead of my mother banging my boyfriend, or having a sister who's also my aunt, I'm stuck with Killer Mom.
You know what tipped me off?
I found her weapon stash.
Oh, and don't worry. This story gets a whole lot worse.
Okay, let me shed some light here.
It was the night of the Annual School Charity Dance.
I know, it sounds lame, but it can be fun. I mean, last year, I mostly spent the whole time making out with my boyfriend, Nick, behind the gym. And boy, he can kiss.
But enough on Nick's tonguing techniques. The point is, I knew that I had to look really good, cause I know that Jade Mallory had her eye on Nick, and even though sometimes he was a possessive jerk, and he can be a little rough, I wasn't ready to let him go. I mean, I was gonna break up with him soon, but I did not want to lose him to Jade before I did. So I had to look stunning. I had the perfect dress, the perfect hairstyle, make-up, accessories, everything. Except the shoes.
I was freaking out, until I remembered that Mom had a hot pair of pumps somewhere that'd be perfect. She was out at the shops, getting some more strawberries, cause she made the best protein strawberry milkshakes, which I was sorta addicted to, so I knew that I could ransack her closet before she got back. I knew that it was totally against the rules to go through her stuff, but I really needed those shoes!
The bottom of her closet was a mess. Shoes were strewn everywhere, and I groaned. I had like an hour!
I picked up a random shoe. Wrong one. I chucked it behind me, and began desperately searching, making a complete mess.
Then my nail got caught on something, and I yelped.
Brilliant. Just great. I'd chipped my perfect nail polish.
I groaned and sought out the offending object, to probably shout at it for trying to ruin my relationship with Nick. It was a small square of floor which stuck up slightly.
What can I say? I'm a curious girl.
I prised it up with my fingernails and revealed a huge red button, which was practically screaming "Push Me!"
I didn't need telling twice. I pushed the button.
A section of the floor sunk and pulled aside to reveal…
I sat back on my heels and stared.
I gingerly reached out and hesitantly picked up a gun. I was labelled AK-47.
It was too much. I slammed the gun down and shot to my feet.
I spun around. Mom was standing there, a slightly dazed expression on her face.
'You went though my closet?'
'Don't worry,' I automatically snarked back. 'I didn't scratch your AK-47.'
Way too much. My already shattered nerves blew up.
'Oh?! Is that all you've got to say?! I find a gun stash in your closet, and you say oh?!'
Anne Aurum had the grace to look ashamed.
'Look, Laya honey, I can explain.'
I glared at her. 'Then explain.'
She hesitated. 'Honey, I'm an assassin.'
Dead silence.
I actually thought about laughing, but her dead serious expression convinced my that she was not joking.
I finally found my voice.
'An you were gonna tell me this, when? When I graduate? When I get married? The day before I die?! What would you say? "Uh, honey, I know you're ninety-three, and you look like a wrinkled old bag, but I thought that I may as well tell you, I'm an assassin. Oh, and your husband? Yeah, he didn't die of cancer, I shot him. He annoyed me." Are you out of your frickin' mind?!
'Look, I didn't want you to follow in my footsteps, okay? It's dangerous!'
'No shit, Sherlock,' I sniped. 'Killing people is just a piece of cake.' I snorted. 'And you call yourself a Christian.'
'I'm not a Christian. I sort of… well, lied.'
Oh my God. Why would anyone lie about their religion? Who was she?
'You know, I'm not surprised. Anything else you want to tell me? Hmm, let's see. Are you actually part Argentinean?'
'Yes. That I can safely say.'
'Is your name Anne Aurum?'
She didn't answer. I stared at her, my entire world wobbling and collapsing.
'I cannot believe you! Are you even my mother?'
Tears started to fill her eyes. 'Laya, honey, don't say that. Of course I am.'
'We look nothing alike, and I don't even know your name,' I continued ruthlessly. 'How can you be my mother?'
'Laya, I am your mother. You just look like your father. And I want you to know that I only lied to keep you safe.'
'Oh, yes. My dad. And don't even think about lying to me. Is he really dead?'
She didn't answer.
'Oh my God,' I gasped. 'Oh my God. How could you?!'
'We agreed that it would be safer for you if you thought he was dead.'
'Oh, so he just doesn't want to know me. Who is he?'
'I can't tell you,' wailed Mom, tears streaming down her cheeks. 'It's better if you don't know.'
I stared at her, dumbstruck. My mouth refused to communicate with my brain. I knew that I should scream at her, make her pay for lying to me, make her feel the pain that was racing through me, but I just couldn't move my mouth.
So I just turned and walked out.
Screw the dance. My life would never be the same.

Police: 4 thieves arrested after crashing getaway car on I-95
Updated On: Jul 03 2013 05:28:16 PM EDT
Four people were arrested in connection with an armed robbery and kidnapping in Boynton Beach.
Four officers made the quick work after the alleged victim called 911 to tell them he was robbed in the parking lot of a Publix grocery store in the 4700 block of North Congress Avenue at about 7 p.m. Tuesday.

The man told police he was forced at gunpoint to get into the passenger seat of a car in the parking lot, adding that he felt the gun pressed against the back of his head.
He also told them the thieves took money from his pockets, as well as his driver's license, then told him they'd come to his home and kill him if he called police. An arrest report also indicated the men then drove the alleged victim out of the plaza, ordered him out of the car, then sped off.
The alleged victim hustled back to his own car and called 911. His description of the suspects' vehicle was good enough to allow officers to catch up to them a short time later on Interstate 95 near the 6th Avenue exit, the report said.
That's where they crashed the car and tried to flee on foot.
Eventually, all four of the thieves were caught. They are 21-year-old Joel Guerrier, 20-year-old Kenson Norzifort, 20-year-old Timothy Paige and a fourth person who was not identified because "releasing his name could compromise other investigations," the report said.

You'd think, after his recent Internet sex scandal, that the last place Fred Durst would want to be is in front of a video camera. Nonetheless, Variety reports, the Limp Bizkit frontman is shopping to TV outlets a reality series where he'd interview and hang out with celebrities. Called My Life with Fred Durst, the one-hour show would mix star chatter with slice-of-life scenes of Durst as a father, businessman, and musician, according to producers Bischoff-Hervey Entertainment. (That's the firm behind the upcoming how-to-be-a-socialite reality show starring Paris Hilton's mom, Kathy.)
''I just want to have a spontaneous platform to have good conversations with people, who aren't necessarily on the show to sell a movie or product,'' Durst told Variety. ''I'm not interested in being controversial and pushing envelopes.''
Fans who can't wait to catch Durst on TV should watch upcoming episodes of NBC's miniseries Revelations. On the April 20 show, Durst makes his acting debut as a Satanist who kidnaps the son of hero Bill Pullman. Meanwhile, he's also working on his day job, putting the finishing touches on The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1), the first Limp Bizkit album since guitarist Wes Borland return to the fold.

He also upped his hip factor by sporting a bright blue suit complete with rolled up pants and white kicks. The upbeat performance was a breath of fresh air from the artist.

Happy New Year!!
I realized
yesterday that I have hit the age where I don't really care to be any older. 23 was nice…. why not stay 23? Forever! 24 just sounds so old! (all of you past 30 are rolling your eyes, I know). I remember being 18 and thinking, "oh my gosh!" I'm not going to be a "teenager" in two years! This is CRAZY!!! Now I'm married and only one year away from being 25?!! That's halfway to 50!!!!! Time is flying! And I'm loving life. Really, I'm so thankful for my life and for all that God has given me. He has blessed me in so many ways and I just hope that when people see me, they see Him because nothing else in life matters.

Rho signaling, ROCK and mDia1, in transformation, metastasis and invasion
- Shuh Narumiya,
- Masahiro Tanji,
- Toshimasa Ishizaki
- … show all 3 hide
The Rho subgroup of the Rho GTPases consisting of RhoA, RhoB and RhoC induces a specific type of actin cytoskeleton and carry out a variety of functions in the cell. mDia and ROCK are downstream effectors of Rho mediating Rho action on the actin cytoskeleton; mDia produces actin filaments by nucleation and polymerization and ROCK activate myosin to cross-link them for induction of actomyosin bundles and contractility. mDia is potentially linked to Rac activation and membrane ruffle formation through c-Src-induced phosphorylation of focal adhesion proteins, and ROCK antagonizes this mDia action. Thus, cell morphogenesis, adhesion, and motility can be determined by the balance between mDia and ROCK activities. Though they are not oncogenes by themselves, overexpression of RhoA and RhoC are often found in clinical cancers, and RhoC has been repeatedly identified as a gene associated with metastasis. The Rho-ROCK pathway is implicated in Ras-mediated transformation, the amoeboid movement of tumor cells in the three-dimensional matrix, and transmigration of tumor cells through the mesothelial monolayer. On the other hand, the Rho-mDia1 pathway is implicated in Src-mediated remodeling of focal adhesions and migration of tumor cells. There is also an indication that the Rho pathway other than ROCK is involved in Src-mediated induction of podosome and regulation of matrix metalloproteases. Thus, Rho mediates various phenotypes of malignant transformation by Ras and Src through its effectors, ROCK and mDia.

It's a sunny day and you want to get outside. Why not take Fido? BestBullySticks.com knows a walk with your dog not only clears your head but is great exercise for both of you! However, if your dog isn't leash trained, walking your dog can be a pain more than a pleasure. Best Bully Sticks can help! January is not only National Train Your Dog Month, but also National Walk Your Pet Month!
Before You Walk
Before venturing out in your neighborhood, to the dog park or on an outdoors adventure, make sure your dog is:
Comfortable with the Equipment
Your dog's collar and leash are obviously very important, but you must make sure your dog isn't nervous or scared around them. If your dog seems skittish around these objects begin by simply placing them in the same room and letting your dog become comfortable with the objects themselves. Once your dog seems relaxed and can approach the collar, lead or harness without fear, move on to putting them on your dog. Let your dog wear the collar, harness and leash around the house with a loose leash. As your dog becomes more comfortable, start picking up the lead while your dog is eating or playing. Then take short walks around your house, but never pull or restrain. The point is to get your dog to understand the feel of the equipment.
When you're ready to walk, your dog might be really excited! That's great! However, make sure your dog is relaxed and still when you "suit up" for your adventure. When Fido realizes a walk is coming, train him to have all four paws on the ground before you attach his harness and lead. This sets a precedence of you being in charge before the walk even begins. read more…

WASHINGTON, August 21, 2013 – Minnesota farmer Alvin Schlangen, was convicted by a jury of 6 on five charges related to feeding his community.
The conviction came on August 15 after a 3-day trial.
SEE RELATED: New studies debunk raw milk health risks
Schlangen offered members of the private buying club, Freedom Farms Co-op, the benefit of his volunteer delivery service as he picked up members' food items, including raw milk, from other farms and delivered it along with products from his Freeport farm.
The criminal charges brought against Schlangen in Stearns County included operating without a food handler's license, storing eggs at temperatures above the mandated 45 degrees, distributing adulterated or misbranded food, violating a food embargo, and selling custom processed meat.
Alvin was facing up to $5,000 in fines and up to 15 months in jail.
SEE RELATED: As trial looms, activists unite around raw milk farmer
During the trial, the prosecution spent the first day calling witnesses, including the state veterinarian, who testified about different foodborne illnesses to associate Schlangen with a foodborne illness, yet the state did not present a shred of evidence that food delivered by Schlangen has ever made anyone sick.
Attorney Nathan Hansen represented Schlangen with the support of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund. Sentenced only on the charge of handling food without a license, Schlangen was fined $1,000 ($700 of the fine was suspended) and given a 90-day jail term which was also suspended with one year on probation; if he violates probation, he will be sent to jail and be required to pay the balance of $700 in fines.
"It's a sad day when a hardworking farmer who has dedicated his life to feeding his community quality food and benefited the health of hundreds of families is judged to be a criminal," says attorney and president of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund (FTCLDF), Pete Kennedy. "The Minnesota Department of Agriculture did not have this case brought against Alvin to protect the public health; the department's purpose was to get control over the private distribution of food, denying Minnesota residents their right to obtain the food of their choice from the source of their choice."
In September 2012, Schlangen was acquitted in Hennepin County on three charges alleging violations of the state food and dairy code, including a charge of operating without a food handlers license.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Swiss banking ain't what it used to be, but consenus-beating results from Credit Suisse (CS) on Thursday prove it ain't half bad either.
Credit Suisse earned 1.76 billion Swiss francs ($1.88 billion), 217 million Swiss francs ($232 million) ahead of consensus estimates. While most of the beat came from Credit Suisse's investment banking division, JPMorgan analyst Kian Abouhossein argued strong margins and net new money flows in wealth management were an important contributor to the strong results.
Wealth Management profits before taxes were 5% above consensus at 523 million Swiss francs ($558 million), with pretax margins of 25%. Net new money inflows of 7.5 billion Swiss francs ($8 billion) showed annualized growth of 3.6%, in line with management targets.
The results are welcome news for Swiss bankers, who have been giving up ground to Singapore as a preferred destination for rich people to park their money. The industry is still recovering from a major crackdown by the U.S. tax authorities, who charged Swiss banks with helping U.S. citizens avoid taxes.Despite the strength in wealth management and investment banking, JPMorgan's Abouhossein expressed disappointment at Credit Suisse's fixed income currencies and commodities trading results, which he called "second worst in the industry so far and worst in terms of QoQ decline." Still, Credit Suisse remains one of his top stock picks among global investment banks, behind only UBS (UBS). His third, fourth and fifth picks, respectively, are Morgan Stanley (MS), Deutsche Bank (DB)and Goldman Sachs (GS). -- Written by Dan Freed in New York. Follow @dan_freed

hell them sleepers ain't nothing to play wih
Damn that was the 1st time I have ever seen a chick fight end with a sleeper choke hold, the girl in the white and purple must have been playing UFC Undisputed on PS3 and decided to try some moves out to see if they work in real life.
Ted DiBiase has a daughter… LOL $5.00 dollar dream.
Oh myy!
I can't help but "chuckle" because that is NOT the way I pictured it going.
I thought the girl in the pink was going to get knocked out.
You could tell the girl in the blue wanted the fight – and usually the ones who want to fight end up beat up/knocked out/put to sleep.
She shouldn't have strangled/choked her though.
What if she passed out and didn't get up?
Homegirl just quickly walked away – she was probably scared
ooo shit!!! lmao!!!
Now dat's a BAD BYTCH.
Damn i have a plm sleeping and wish she could put me asleep that easy ! Lol
Again the underdog wins……….
Wonder if her forehead got skinned up.
The rear naked choke…
its always the shit talker that gets laid out….
oh damn
that mess up
while she was putting that bytch to sleep, she was raising my di*K to f**% up!…Damn! that was sexy!
I with you #14. I need a chick like that.
lmao…Lil bytch thought she was bad and got put to bed. Shame
ROTFL!! N i thought da big buff one wuz gon get b da one 2 get er, c, itz alwayz da onez who keep cool who win cuz day kno day got dat lmao…. n she jus walkd away like "K, i'm done here…."
I guess she told her, "Go to sleep, ho" and she went to sleep. That is gangster, I wish would did that when I got in a fight in middle school.
ummmmm ONE- didnt expect the girl in the pink to come with that…..TWO did anybody notice how the big girl SLID on her face to a full lay out position im SOOO WEAK!!! thats gonna leave a mark LOL. sad thing is the girl and pink was probably warning the big girl like…u dont want none, trust me! LOL
Like i always say and the famous words of Diddy…."take that…..take that….take that"….lol
LMAO!!! @Verse1, ya'll made me spill my drink all over the keyboard with this one. Ole girl dropped like a sack of potatoes. LOL!!!!
well damn!!!!…lol
I thought dude was bout to blide side that bytch.
thats what her ass get…its always the person starting a fight that get they asses handed to them

For centuries, the diverse cultures of Asia have been borrowing culinary traditions from their neighbors, transcending borders to swap cooking techniques and seasonings. At China Spice, chefs that hail from locales such as China, Nepal, and Tibet illustrate these time-honored pastimes on plates, harmoniously uniting the spices and styles of Indian, Sichuan, Thai, and Nepalese cuisines. Flecks of coriander and turmeric—hallmarks of Indian and Thai kitchens—might pepper dishes doused in classic Chinese soy sauce. Provincial Hakka specialties, such as chili chicken, neighbor dishes from cosmopolitan Shanghai. Ample rice and noodle dishes, vegetarian fare, and seafood populate tables next to long banquettes, which unfurl amid low lighting and deep earth tones.
Founded in 1976, the Coffee Beanery has wafted the enticing aroma of its beans not only throughout the United States but also over foreign soil. At each location, baristas brew the company's specially roasted beans and decaf coffee, which expels caffeine via the Swiss water process rather than with harsh chemicals. In addition to steaming espresso drinks and blending icy frappalattes, the staff stocks their shelves with bags of flavored coffees such as french toast, chocolate mint kiss, and Michigan cherry. Although guests are welcome to cozy up at a table or grab a cup to go, the beanery also lures shoppers inside to peruse a selection of coffee gifts, perfect for birthdays or Monday mornings.
It's been nearly two decades since Hard Grove Cafe opened, and in that time, the Cuban-themed restaurant has evolved into a place where locals gather to see art exhibits and dance to live music. Of course, the biggest draw is still the authentic Cuban cuisine. Diners can dig into seafood mofongo?roasted chicken glazed with guava-infused barbecue sauce?and tangy ropa vieja, amid other exotic dishes. Vegetarian-friendly alternatives are available, along with sandwiches and burgers for diners who are afraid to use forks. Bartenders whip up refreshing mojitos and cosmos for accompaniment. Sundays bring an extensive brunch with optional bottomless bloody marys and mimosas.
A plush, scarlet-accented interior welcomes diners to Nanking, whose namesake city—plotted equally between Canton and Peking—boasts a strong history of mingling Chinese, Thai, and Indian flavors. The fusion fare descends on appetites as natural light from a wall of broad windows washes over gleaming wooden floors, punctuated by a long bar stocked with wines, cocktails, mocktails, and ice sculptures chiseled by a famous cubist. Velvety, modern red chairs support diners as they feast on everything from spicy seafood to rich goat-meat curries and numerous vegetarian options that offer protein in the form of chickpeas, paneer, and tofu.
The chefs at Kulcha Corner fire up a traditional clay oven, in which specialty Kulcha, or Indian-style flatbreads—concocted from flour, salt, yogurt, and milk—bake until golden brown. Servers ferry trays of tandoori kebabs and hot vegetarian curries to tables, where diners can revel in the entrees' spiciness. The oblong eatery invites patrons to relax at tables for four and gaze toward an HDTV positioned near the back of the venue. Glossily stained wainscoting underscores sconces that emit vectors of romantic yellow light, and a deep-red back wall reminds guests of what would happen if a lipstick truck crashed into a wall.
Named for the Spanish word for nostalgia, Añoranzas Colombianas helps diners to understand Columbia's culinary history with traditional recipes. As the restaurant's televisions play salsa and cumbia dance videos, affable waiters ferry plates of shrimp in lemon sauce and chicken fajitas. The Bandeja Paisa, or country platter, mingles chorizo and fried pork belly with marinated steak, sunny-side-up eggs, avocado, and rice and beans served atop a 4-H manual. Not to be outdone by the main courses, cups of strong Colombian coffee and plates of flan add their own complex flavors each meal.

This past February, Copywrite released God Save The King, which wound up being not only some of his most personal work to date but also some of his most critically acclaimed. Now, on August 7th, Copy will team back up with his label Man Bites Dog Records for the worldwide release of God Save The King: Proper English Version. The album will include a handful of new exclusives, in addition to a number of remixes of God Save The King standouts, featuring a collection of the UK's biggest rappers, a list that includes Context, Dru Blu, Mystro, SAS, Akala, Iron Braydz, and more.
Today, Copywrite is excited to release a video for the album's latest single, "More Sorrow" which features Copywrite's childhood friend Illogic. For fans of God Save The King, the song's title will sound familiar – "Sorrow" was one of the album's standout tracks, as Copywrite used the song to deal with recent loss. "More Sorrow" is in dedication to Copywrite's grandmother, and the song was written and recorded the same night that she passed away, minutes before Copywrite was able to get to the hospital. "Walked in the hospital room, you were already gone," raps Copywrite, reliving the events of the evening. "I kissed you on your forehead and held your sweaty palm."
The song is produced by Stu Bangas, who, together with Vanderslice, will release Diggaz With Attitude on August 28th, and it was Stu's beat that brought the pain and emotion out. The song is not all gloomy thoughts, though, as Copywrite turns towards his faith for resolution. "The song still has a triumphant vibe to it," explains Copywrite, "which is why I decided to talk about Jesus. This life is a Rubix Cube, but there is a way out of it and to be victorious."
The video, directed by R.M.L., initially incorporated a narrative structure, but Copywrite and the director later decided to stray from that narrative in favor of a more raw and interpersonal display of emotion. The result is a video that allows Copywrite to command the viewer's attention, while putting the emphasis on Copy's lyrics.
This is definitely Copy at his best, in a coonskin cap… er, I mean speaking on his life and, unfortunately too often, his loss. Having recently lost my dad, I can relate, however I must say that the statement, "Everyone's an atheist until tragedy happens" is completely false. This emotional blackmail argument is so poor, though I do understand it. Sad
On a happier note, I'm hopeful for this remix of the GSTK album. The original could've been much better if not for a few horrible errors like the awful hook on G$K that rendered my favorite beat on the album unlistenable. Also, looking forward to the new MHZ album
Copwrite is definitely dope, I'm not feeling the Christian messages he's been peppering into his lyrics lately. I mean he's definitely not taking it to a Lecrae level, he's still pretty raw, I just hope it doesn't ever become too prevalent in his music.
