- Primary attention is given at all times to the detection of substantially undervalued securities.
- Our performance, relatively, is likely to be better in a bear market than in a bull market.
- In a year when the general market had a substantial advance I would be well satisfied to match the advance of the Averages.
- Obviously during any acquisition period, our primary interest is to have the stock do nothing or decline rather than advance. Therefore, at any given time, a fair proportion of our portfolio may be in the sterile stage. This policy, while requiring patience, should maximize long term profits.
- I make no attempt to forecast the general market - my efforts are devoted to finding undervalued securities.
- ...substantial earnings power selling at a large discount from intrinsic value...and risk of any ultimate loss seemed minimal.
- Very strong defensive characteristics...Good solid value building up at a satisfactory pace...Evidence to the effect that eventually this value would be unlocked.
- Obviously it was definitely to our advantage to have the stock remain dormant in price.
- Our block of stock increased in value as its size grew, particularly after we became the second largest stockholder with sufficient voting power to warrant consultation on any merger proposal.
- Very small buying orders can create price changes of this magnitude in an inactive stock, which explains the importance of not having any "Leakage" regarding our portfolio holdings.
- Our performance for any single year has serious limitations as a basis for estimating long term results. However, I believe that a program of investing in such undervalued well protected securities offers the surest means of long term profits in securities.
- While the degree of undervaluation is no greater than in many other securities we own (or even than some) we are the largest stockholder and this has substantial advantages many times in determining the length of time required to correct the undervaluation.
- The higher the level of the market, the fewer the undervalued securities and I am finding some difficulty in securing an adequate number of attractive investments.
- Such a policy should lead to the fulfillment of my earlier forecast – an above average performance in a bear market. It is on this basis that I hope to be judged.
- ...the present level of "blue chip" security prices contains a substantial speculative component with a corresponding risk of loss.
- I would rather sustain the penalties resulting from over-conservatism than face the consequences of error, perhaps with permanent capital loss.
- To the extent possible, I continue to attempt to invest in situations at least partially insulated from the behavior of the general market. This policy should lead to superior results in bear markets and average performance in bull markets.
- I would consider a year in which we declined 15% and the Average 30% to be much superior to a year when both we and the Average advanced 20%. Over a period of time there are going to be good and bad years; there is nothing to be gained by getting enthused or depressed about the sequence in which they occur. The important thing is to be beating par.
- Our results should be relatively better in moderately declining or static markets. To the extent that this is true, it indicates that our portfolio may be more conservatively, although decidedly less conventionally, invested than if we owned "blue-chip" securities. During a strongly rising market for the latter, we might have real difficulty in matching their performance.
- Our bread-and-butter business is buying undervalued securities and selling when the undervaluation is corrected along with investment in special situations where the profit is dependent on corporate rather than market action.
- My own thinking is much more geared to five year performance, preferably with tests of relative results in both strong and weak markets.
- We have also begun open market acquisition of a potentially major commitment which I, of course, hope does nothing marketwise for at least a year. Such a commitment may be a deterrent to short range performance, but it gives strong promise of superior results over a several year period combined with substantial defensive characteristics.
- I believe in establishing yardsticks prior to the act; retrospectively, almost anything can be made to look good in relation to something or other.
- The Dow as an investment competitor is no pushover, and the great bulk of investment funds in the country are going to have difficulty in bettering, or perhaps even matching, its performance.
- The first section consists of generally undervalued securities where we have nothing to say about corporate policies and no timetable as to when the undervaluation may correct itself. Over the years, this has been our largest category of investment, and more money has been made here than in either of the other categories. We usually have fairly large positions (5% to 10% of our total assets) in each of five or six generals, with smaller positions in another ten or fifteen.
- Sometimes these work out very fast; many times they take years. It is difficult at the time of purchase to know any specific reason why they should appreciate in price. However, because of this lack of glamour or anything pending which might create immediate favorable market action, they are available at very cheap prices. A lot of value can be obtained for the price paid. This substantial excess of value creates a comfortable margin of safety in each transaction. This individual margin of safety, coupled with a diversity of commitments creates a most attractive package of safety and appreciation potential. Over the years our timing of purchases has been considerably better than our timing of sales. We do not go into these generals with the idea of getting the last nickel, but are usually quite content selling out at some intermediate level between our purchase price and what we regard as fair value to a private owner.
- The generals tend to behave market-wise very much in sympathy with the Dow. Just because something is cheap does not mean it is not going to go down. During abrupt downward movements in the market, this segment may very well go down percentage-wise just as much as the Dow. Over a period of years, I believe the generals will outperform the Dow, and during sharply advancing years like 1961, this is the section of our portfolio that turns in the best results. It is, of course, also the most vulnerable in a declining market.
- There is nothing at all conservative, in my opinion, about speculating as to just how high a multiplier a greedy and capricious public will put on earnings.
- You will not be right simply because a large number of people momentarily agree with you. You will not be right simply because important people agree with you. You will be right, over the course of many transactions, if your hypotheses are correct, your facts are correct, and your reasoning is correct. True conservatism is only possible through knowledge and reason.
- There are bound to be years when we are surpassed by the Dow, but if over a long period we can average ten percentage points per year better than it, I will feel the results have been satisfactory.
- Whether we do a good job or a poor job is not to be measured by whether we are plus or minus for the year. It is instead to be measured against the general experience in securities as measured by the Dow- Jones Industrial Average, leading investment companies, etc. If our record is better than that of these yardsticks, we consider it a good year whether we are plus or minus.
- Our investments will be chosen on the basis of value, not popularity.
- That we will attempt to bring risk of permanent capital loss (not short-term quotational loss) to an absolute minimum by obtaining a wide margin of safety in each commitment and a diversity of commitments.
- Sometimes these work out very fast; many times they take years. It is difficult at the time of purchase to know any compelling reason why they should appreciate in price. However, because of this lack of glamour or anything pending which might create immediate favorable market action, they are available at very cheap prices. A lot of value can be obtained for the price paid. This substantial excess of value creates a comfortable margin of safety in each transaction. Combining this individual margin of safety with a diversity of commitments creates a most attractive package of safety and appreciation potential. We do not go into these generals with the idea of getting the last nickel, but are usually quite content selling out at some intermediate level between our purchase price and what we regard as fair value to a private owner.
- When control of a company is obtained, obviously what then becomes all-important is the value of assets, not the market quotation for a piece of paper (stock certificate).
- This is the cornerstone of our investment philosophy: "Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good results. The better sales will be the frosting on the cake."
- Our advantage over the Dow was all achieved when the market was going down; we lost a bit of this edge on the way up.
- Our job is to pile up yearly advantages over the performance of the Dow without worrying too much about whether the absolute results in a given year are a plus or a minus.
- We consider attempting to gauge stock market fluctuations to be a very poor business on a long-term basis and are not going to be in it.
- I am an outspoken advocate of paying large amounts of income taxes -- at low rates. A tremendous number of fuzzy, confused investment decisions are rationalized through so-called "tax considerations."
- My net worth is the market value of holdings less the tax payable upon sale.
- Investment decisions should be made on the basis of the most probable compounding of after-tax net worth with minimum risk.

I have an excellent working knowledge of 3ds Max, Photoshop and other artist tools, howeve r I have limited knowledge of Unity itself. I have been thinking about a career change for a while and would really like to be developing apps or games for android development. I have some age old limited knowledge of pascal and Qbasic (back in the day) and am currently 28 years old. I would really like to run my own company and have been wondering if Unity is a viable option for me?
To this end I would really appreciate some advice, I understand that this is not a specific post relating to a yes or no answer, however I value any guidance that can help point me in the right direction. I received all distinctions in my final year of my 3D/CGI course and fully understand the workflow of 3d asset based models. My problem comes in that I realise it will take many years to learn to code correctly. could posters please advise if you think I would be better off learning to develop simple android apps, or if I would be better off maybe using my 3D skills and trying to find some users online to start building android games using Unity? developing 3d assets myself?
Again, appreciate the vagueness of this post, however I feel a little lost at the moment and really value any advice I can get on this... I would love to be developing apps in some fashion, especially developing the visual aspect of these, however I am also a very methodical thinker.
Fully appreciate guidance from the professionals on this forum. Really advising on if I would be better off using a unity workflow or developing quicker apps with eclipse?

Brandon Vogt, the man with the plan and the editor of the book, writes about it all here. A small snip:
All of these swirling thoughts eventually crashed into each other and I finally realized what God was trying to tell me:Read more about the project and see more pics here.
He wanted me to write a book on new media, and he wanted it to be a good story. And giving away the royalties would do just that....In the following months, I worked with some friends at Catholic Relief Services (CRS) to set up a project for the royalties--a computer lab in the Diocese of Mombasa, Kenya. We decided that all of the book royalties would go toward buying computers for the lab and to pay for a computer literacy instructor, as well.
Even though The Church and New Media hasn't been officially released yet, CRS has already fronted a large sum of money to the Diocese of Mombasa so they could begin their work.
And today, CRS sent me some of the first pictures of the lab in action. The lab is in the Good Shepherd Catholic Training Center in Ukunda, Mombasa, and is outfitted with ten new computers and flat-screen monitors, and the training has already begun:
Brandon truly has a great vision for this project. I hope others will help it to do even more good by buying the book.

Maintaining a high stroke rate is an important part of any open water swim. During my Catalina crossing in August 2010 I raised my stroke rate from 68-72 strokes per minute to 75-77 as the swim progressed. Since then I have received a Tempo Trainer and started to use it for the purpose of further increasing my average stroke rate.
This summer I worked to increase my tempo the old fashioned way: by moving my arms as fast as I could and hoping that it was faster than before. It was nearly impossible to get a real idea of my stroke rate in a pool, since the longest count I can get in a 50 meter pool was 30 seconds and that is still a bit inaccurate. It was easier to get counts in open water, but that was dependent on whether my swim group had a kayak escort or not, and ultimately it is tough to continue to push the pace for long periods of time without mentally spacing out a bit (and thus slowing down).
Enter the Tempo Trainer. Using this chart as a reference, I have begun to use the tempo trainer during my daily pool workout so that I can ease into increasing my average. (Tip: to figure stroke rates that are not converted on the chart, use the formula 60/Setting=Stroke Rate). I have even set aside one practice a week to devote to tempo training; I call it Tempo Tuesday! There are a few ways that I have been using the tempo trainer.
1) Pull Sets – Since pull repeats tend to be longer than swim repeats, they present a good opportunity to work on holding a high tempo. However, you will need to back off a bit from your goal stroke rate to accommodate the effect that pull equipment has on tempo and to prevent injury.
2) Descending Stroke Rates - For example, in a set of 10x100s with a current average tempo of 70/spm (setting of .86) and a goal of 74/spm (Setting of .81) you could do 1 @ .88, 1@ .87, 1@.86, 1@.85, 1@.84, 1@.83, 1@.82, and 3 @ .81.
3) Swim Tether Repeats – Grab yourself a Stationary Cords Hip Belt, attach it to the block, and get working on your tempo without having to be interrupted by turns. Try swimming 5-10 Minute repeats at descending stroke rates.
Ultimately it takes a lot of practice to increase your stroke rate without losing your efficiency, so repetition is key. When you consider that the open water swimming elites are holding stroke rates in the upper 80s, it's definitely something worth trying!

We've all got hair issues, I think. Some people lose hair, some people's hair is too brittle. Some people wish their hair was straight, some wish for curly, some wish for different colors. Thats a lot of insecurities, and sometimes keeping up with making yourself feel better about them can be really time consuming. Who has the time and the money to dedicate towards "fixing" all of these issues? It can be a real challenge! So many of us are on campus every day, we have homework, tests, and projects, not to mention work. Alongside that, books are not cheap! And neither is the gas it takes to get to school. The drive alone is thirty-five minutes for me, and I know that personally, my days are chock full as it is.
Well, sometimes it doesn't have to be as hard as you think it might be! If you just change up your routine a little bit, you could save a lot of the dollars and hours
spent in hair salons. First off, its important to make sure you pick out shampoo/conditioner that suits your needs. Sound expensive? Have no fears! You don't have to buy salon brands like TreSemme to get products that treat you well. It may cost three or four dollars instead of one, but lots of stores have shampoos, conditioners, and styling agents that are specified to different types of hair (long hair, curly hair, dry hair, flat hair, etc.). Meanwhile, there are home remedies that also work well. You might have heard of women putting mayonnaise in their hair and wondered to yourself, "Why would they do that?" The answer is actually quite simple! Two of mayonnaise's main ingredients are eggs and oil, both of which are very good for hair. For those who don't relish the idea of putting a condiment in your hair, consider this: Heat 1/4 a cup of olive oil in the micro then mix it with a beaten, raw egg. Gently rub it into your scalp and roots, lightly through the length of your hair, and into your tips as well. Let it sit for 30-60 minutes. Go do some homework or cook dinner while you let it soak! It may sound a little gross, and it may not feel too great when its all over your fingers, but after you wash it out with shampoo and conditioner, you hair will feel healthier already.
For those losing hair or have hair that breaks too easily, go to your doctor and ask if it's a reasonable worry that you might be iron deficient. My hair is naturally very thin, so I'm of the opinion that that is why it breaks. But sometimes not having enough iron in your diet can also cause this, and as long as it is doctor approved, you can go out and purchase iron supplements. Another option is a vitamin called Biotin! These vitamin helps strengthen the keratin your body produces, making it good for hair and nails!
When you're a student, its always a great idea to look into the less-expensive options. High quality boxed hair dye, vitamins, and home hair treatments are all just a few things that could help you out! Why dedicate an hour or two alongside $70 at a salon when you can accomplish the same results at home, while getting school work done at the same time. Have you tried any of these home ideas? Or have any other suggestions? Drop them into an email to firstname.lastname@example.com, we'd love to hear about them.

Travaris Cadet is making a nice impression in Saints camp and in their preseason games. As Chris Ivory starts to fade, Cadet is a multi-talented RB that could make Ivory expendable. Cadet has carried the ball 18 for 51 yards in the first three preseason games, adding 19 catches for 171 yards and 2 TDs. He also has been impressive returning kicks. The way the Saints RBs healthy has been over the years, there is no doubt that Cadet could have some value this season if someone goes down with the skill set he has. A guy to keep in your back pocket.

I'm a 2008 graduate of Chatfield High School in Chatfield, Minn. In March 2011, I started part time at Mayo Clinic as a research assistant, and I became a full-time associate clinical research coordinator in August 2011.
Every day brings new challenges and different scenarios that require good communication and problem-solving skills. I'm also very fortunate to be in a department with a great group of co-workers, which has made the transition to a full-time position easier than I could have imagined.
After high school, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do. I learned about Mayo School of Health Sciences and some of their programs, and I decided that the two-year Associate in Applied Science Degree Track in the CRC Program was an appealing way to continue my education. The idea of being a part of research that could possibly transform the future of medicine seemed like it could be a very rewarding job.
For those who are starting the program directly out of high school, the first semester may be somewhat overwhelming because of all the new medical terms and acronyms you learn — most of them were likely not discussed in your high school classes. By the end of the first semester, though, all the terms and duties related to being a clinical research coordinator start to fall into place.
In the morning, I'll:
After a break for lunch, I'll:
I plan to work toward my Bachelor of Science degree over the next few years and continue to gain knowledge, which will help me advance as a clinical research coordinator at Mayo Clinic.

You might be thinking about trying drugs because you've seen others do them, because you think you will have fun or because you want to find out what they might do for you. Taking drugs might seem exciting at first, but drugs cause unpredictable changes in your mood and behaviour and can be dangerous. Also you can never be sure of what you are taking. Drugs can also be highly addictive.
The most commonly used mood altering drug in Australia is alcohol and alcohol does lead to major health problems, but this topic also looks at the effects of other mood altering drugs.
The safest option is not to take drugs, but if you choose to use a drug, reduce the risks:
Never share injecting equipment, and always call for medical help when needed. If your drug use starts to get out of hand, seek help from friends, family or a health professional.
It can be a difficult to see your friends or family members using drugs.
Check the laws where you live. Some legal consequences of drug use are: fines, court appearances, jail, community service, treatment orders, a criminal record (which can make it difficult to get a job and you may not be allowed to travel to some countries). If you sell, supply, manufacture or grow any illegal drug, you can expect very harsh penalties.

Building community takes art. Music. Food. Laughter. A willingness to work together. Most of all, it takes vision.
Since 1984, Hope House Foundation has been the vision behind the Stockley Gardens Arts Festival. And now, the free event is a community tradition proudly presented by Towne Bank, and drawing more than 50,000 visitors annually.
Twice a year, on the third full weekend in May and October, people flock to Stockley Gardens in Norfolk's historic Ghent neighborhood to browse through jewelry, pottery, paintings, and other works of art by over 130 artists. The park is full of strollers and dogs and tantalizing smells. Music drifts from the stage. Friends stop to chat. And throughout the weekend, there is a feeling of hope.
The money raised during these events helps pay for housing, transportation, medical care, and more for people with developmental disabilities. But the events themselves benefit the entire community.
Each year, a nationally recognized artist or curator judges the artists, who compete for cash prizes. There is also an Emerging Artist Competition, also with cash prizes, for college and high school students, as well as recent graduates. Award winners are announced during the Artists' Reception, which is held Saturday evening on the Main Stage.
We're proud to give the community what Virginia Living Magazine readers voted one of the top three arts festival in Virginia. So don't miss the upcoming Stockley Gardens Arts Festival. It's a good time, for a good cause.
31st Annual Spring Stockley Gardens Arts Festival
|Dates & Hours:
|Saturday, May 16, 2015, 10 am to 5 pm
Sunday, May 17, 2015, noon to 5 pm

Midway through the reception, the Festival judge announces the award winners and distributes prizes.

I think the general consensus is to EBF until 4 to 6 months before introducing solids, then to keep BFing along with giving solids until 12 months, then you can introduce whole cow's milk. That doesn't mean you HAVE to wean at 12 months, but I think that's when a lot of moms start the weaning process. The WHO recommends to keep BFing up until 2 years, but I don't know many people who actually have done it.
Now, that's what the books say, but please don't put too much pressure on yourself. the important thing is that your baby is fed and that both you and baby are happy
Personally, I BFed DD1 until 15-16 months. DD2 abruptly self-weaned 2 weeks after her first birthday.
I think it's totally what works for you, your baby and what you're comfortable with. If you plan to go back to work, it can certainly be a hassle, but is definitely doable if you have a good support (hubby, boss) and a system (for cleaning bottles, parts, refrigeration, etc.). I am completely pro-breast feeding, but I'm also pro-do whatever works best for you and no one should judge you for it (nor should you feel guilty).
Back to your actual question, I'm not sure what the average is. I think 6 months. I BF'ed until my son was just about 18 months, but not exclusively. He had cow's milk starting at around 12 months and then he nursed about 2-3 times a day from 12 months until 18 months. GL!
I'm still BF'ing DD and she's almost 18 months.
The AAP recommends BF'ing for at least a year. The WHO recommends two years.
It's completely up to you what you decide to do. My first goal was a year, then 18 months. Now that we're here I haven't quite decided what's next. I'd like to let DD self-wean, but quite honestly the thought of nursing a toddler and a newborn at the same time scares the heck out of me. DD will be just under 2 when this one arrives. I'll probably wait and see how the next few months go before I make any decisions.
I BFed until 18 months. Which is when she was done. I skipped the bedtime once and she never fussed or asked again.
I pumped weaned at 15ish months when it appeared she would tolerate goat's milk. She was MSPI, so I was intending to go until she couldn't tolerate an alternative. I was lucky enough to have a large freezer stash. So we mixed that in with her goat's milk until she was 21 months.
I wanted to still be BF at this point but we had so many latch issues that he would only hook on in the middle of the night at 5 and 6 months. I gave up the rental pump at 7 months after blowing 2 up. I am the odd one out because all my friends nursed until the kids weaned.
With #2 I am hoping to go as long as possible.
I BF DS for 22 months. I had to go on domperidone at 11 months (long story) and by 18 months I had weaned off the dom and had lost most of my supply. I weaned using "don't offer don't refuse" and a little coaxing and DS self weaned around 22 months. I was home with him for 14 months and when I went back to work we were down to just his bedtime feeding, so it was a slow process and we were both ready.
I did for 3 months. I wanted to for at least 6, but by month 2, she wasn't gaining enough weight as she almost always immediately fell asleep on the boob so my supply tanked. It was a terrible time for me, I was constantly stressed out about feeding her, pumping, or trying to feed myself. Plus she had reflux, so my dr said I would have to cut out pretty much every vegetable & dairy from my diet to help her...and considering we are (mostly) grain-free in our house, that didn't leave a whole lot to eat, and I lost a lot of weight which didn't help with supply. After lots of guilt, stress and research, I supplemented with formula and EP so I could measure my production. By 3 months, I was barely able to pump 2oz total, and she was doing great with formula. I was going back to work then too and I couldn't justify the hassle of pumping at work for such a tiny amount, so I stopped completely at 12 weeks. DD has thrived ever since, and been a happy, healthy baby.
This time around, I am planning to meet with a LC early on if there are any latch or fall-asleep problems, and MH to make extras at dinner so I have food already made for lunch the next day. Also, to find peace with whatever feeding decision works best for ME, whenever needed.
Seriously, happy mom=happy baby.
I made it until about 9 months. My goal was a year, but I couldn't keep up my milk. It was really hard to keep pumping at work. It just took so long and I didn't have a great place to do it every day so I spent half of my break walking around trying to find a vacant room to use which got super frustrating after a while. This time my goal is to get a good freezer stash going while I'm at home and I'm in a different work environment which should be much more condusive to pumping privacy. I'm really going to do whatever it takes to keep up my milk until 12 months when we can transition to milk.
I don't feel like I failed or that my daughter was any less nourished by formula, but I'd like the cut the expense with #2 and the cost of formula vs. free mommy milk really adds up!
I nursed DS for 14 months. He literally woke up one morning and refused to nurse. I tried for the next couple of days but he refused.
I am still pumping for DD at 14 months. Around 9 months she started biting and I could not get her to stop ( a problem I never had with DS) My supply is dropping so I am combining breast milk and cow's milk...it was a tough adjustment at first.
My goal has always been to nurse/pump for 12 months (assuming no obstacles) and after that I leave it to my LOs.

Apple has accused Samsung of trying to include "prior art" evidence in the upcoming damages trial in the ongoing patent infringement case, reports "TUAW" (http://tinyurl.com/puuahua).
Last August a jury awarded Apple US$1.05 billion in damages after deciding that Samsung smartphones infringed some Apple patents. However, in July, Judge Lucy Koh lowered the damages award by $450 million. What's more, a trial is scheduled for November in order to determine how much of the remaining $600 million balance should be awarded to Apple.
With the upcoming trial on damages about two months away, Apple late last week filed a motion seeking to preclude Samsung from making any references to "prior art" (or otherwise attacking the validity of Apple's patents) during the upcoming trial, notes "TUAW."
This is all part of the ongoing, global legal battle. Apple and Samsung have filed more than 30 lawsuits against each other across four continents. For example, Apple alleges that Samsung copied the slide-to-unlock technology of its iPhone and iPad devices.

Jammu Kashmir
All parties meeting to constitute committee to hear Talaq cases
Divorce judgment controversy
SRINAGAR, Nov 4: The all parties meeting today resolved to constitute a committee for hearing cases related to divorce in Muslim couples and "other sensitive issues" concerning Islam.
The committee would also examine closely the judgment by the Jammu and Kashmir High Court on divorce-in-Islam, and, based on the committee's report, the legal course against the High Court judgment would be decided.
"The meeting unanimously resolved to constitute a committee that will hear divorce cases (in Muslim couples)…Not just divorce cases, but several 'other sensitive issues' related to Islam," the president Jamiat Ahl-e-Hadith (JAH), Ghulam Rasool Malik, told Kashmir Times.
"The committee will examine the judgment (by HC) and consult the legal experts to prepare a report for legal course against it (judgment)," he informed.
The committee, the president explained, would comprise of the Ulemas from various religious groups and the legal experts. And the JAH, he said, has been tasked to consult the religious parties for constitution of the group.
"We will ask the religious parties for their representative Ulemas. Besides, many legal experts will also be made members of the committee so that every case can be handled properly," he said.
The meeting did not set any deadline for constituting the committee.
"It will be done as early as possible," Malik said.
Kashmir already has in place a Shariah court that hears and decides the cases related to Islam, including the divorce cases. Therefore, the decision of constituting a committee for a similar purpose may need more clarification.
The JAH president, however, said the party would consult Shariah court too before constituting the committee.
"Our aim is to put an end to controversies and confusions. Having more bodies for the same purpose will create confusion. Therefore, we will contact the Shariah board too so that the committee is formed with proper understanding," he said.
The JAH, a prominent religio-political group, had called the all parties meeting to draft future course of action against the HC judgment that challenged a Muslim man's right to divorce his wife. The HC had last week ruled that a husband's right to 'talaq', or divorce under the Islamic laws, is not "absolute and unqualified".
In his 23-page judgment, Justice Hasnain Masoodi went into the details of the Muslim Shariah law to hold that a "husband cannot have unrestricted or unqualified power to pronounce the Talaaq."
"Though Islam visualizes a situation where a marriage may run into rough weather for reasons beyond control of the parties to the marriage contract, and provides for a mechanism to end or dissolve the relationship in such case, yet the device of divorce is to be used as the last option when the marital relations have irretrievably broken down," the court was quoted as having said.
The meeting was presided over by Malik, and it saw participation from Ulemas, political leaders, lawyers and scholars. Those included president of the High Court Bar Association, Kashmir, Advocate Zafar Ahamd Qureshi, Advocate Mian Abdul Qayoom, Advocate Zafar Ahad Bhat, Maulana Abbas Ansari, Agha Sayed Abid Hussain Rizvi, Ghulam Qadir Lone of Jamiat-e-Islami and Prof Abdul Gani Bhat,
Pertinently, the HC judgment has evoked response from various religious and political quarters. While the religious organizations have reacted sharply, the veteran separatist, Syed Ali Shah Geelani, has asked the Muftis to examine the court judgment to prevent any confusion in the public quarters.

Tumors occurring in the retrorectal (presacral) space are rare. The true incidence of these tumors is unknown, but several retrospective series suggest that between one and six patients will be diagnosed annually in major referral centers.[1-5] One study found that retrorectal tumors represented about one in 40,000 hospital admissions.[6] The retrorectal space contains multiple embryologic remnants derived from a variety of tissues, and tumors that develop in this space are both grossly and histologically heterogeneous. Most lesions are benign, but malignant neoplasms are not uncommon. Malignancy is more common in the pediatric population than in adults, and solid lesions are more likely to be malignant than are cystic lesions. Almost all retrorectal tumors require surgical management.[7]
The retrorectal or presacral space lies between the upper two-thirds of the rectum and the sacrum above the rectosacral fascia. It is bound by the rectum anteriorly, the presacral fascia posteriorly, and the endopelvic fascia laterally (lateral ligaments). The superior border of the space is the posterior peritoneal reflection of the rectum and the inferior border is Waldeyer's fascia. This region contains structures derived from embryonic neuroectoderm, notochord, and hindgut, and many tumors arise from embryonic remnants. As a result, retrorectal tumors are clinically diverse.[1, 7]
Congenital lesions:
Congenital lesions are most common, comprising approximately two-thirds of retrorectal tumors. These lesions are thought to arise from the remnants of embryonic tissues and include both cystic (developmental cysts, duplication cysts, anterior meningoceles) and solid lesions (chordomas, teratomas, adrenal rest tumors). [2, 6, 8]
Developmental cysts:
Developmental cysts constitute the majority of congenital lesions and may arise from all three germ cell layers. These lesions are considerably more common in women than in men.[6]
Dermoid and epidermoid cysts:
Dermoid and epidermoid cysts are benign lesions that arise from the ectoderm. These cysts are lined with squamous epithelium (epidermoid) or a combination of squamous epithelium and a variety of cutaneous appendages. These cysts may communicate with the skin creating a postanal dimple and have a high rate of infection (up to 30%).[9] Infected cysts (especially those that communicate with the skin) can be easily mistaken for pilonidal disease or fistulae-in-ano. Recurrence after surgical therapy may suggest the presence of an underlying congenital cyst.[10]
Duplication cysts:
Enterogenous cysts arise from the primitive gut. Sequestration of the hindgut during embryogenesis results in thin walled, multilocular cysts lined by columnar epithelium. Tailgut cysts (retrorectal cyst-hamartomas) are similar in origin, arising from a portion of the embryonic tail that fails to regress.[11] Rectal duplication cysts also occur and possess all components of the intestinal wall. The majority of these lesions are benign, although rare malignant degeneration has been reported.[12-15]
Anterior meningocele:
Anterior meningocele and myelomeningocele arise from herniation of the dural sac through a defect in the anterior sacrum. This unilateral sacral defect results in the pathognomonic "scimitar sign" (sacrum with a rounded, concave border without any bony destruction) on plain radiographs. In addition to nonspecific symptoms, patients with anterior meningocele may present with headache; these headaches are often positional and/or related to changes in intraabdominal pressure or defecation.[1, 6, 16] Aspiration of an anterior meningocele should be strictly avoided because of the risk of causing meningitis.[1, 7, 10]
Chordomas arise from the notochord and are the most common malignant tumor of the retrorectal space.[4] Chordomas frequently present with pain, and are thought to be more common in men. Chordomas can occur anywhere in the spine, but the most common single site is the sacrococcygeal region (30% to 50%).[17] These tumors are slow-growing, invasive cancers that show characteristic bony destruction. Radical resection offers the best hope for cure, but local recurrence rates are high, and 10 year survival is only 9% to 35%.[6, 18-20]
Teratomas are true neoplasms and contain tissue from each germ cell layer. They can be either cystic or solid, and often contain both components. Like developmental cysts, teratomas are more common in female patients than in male patients. Many teratomas possess germ-cell elements that are capable of malignant degeneration, and up to ten percent of retrorectal teratomas will progress to cancer if left untreated.[1] Teratomas are more common in children than in adults, but when found in adults, are more likely to be malignant.[7, 19] Teratomas classically possess a variety of tissue types, including respiratory, nervous system, and gastrointestinal structures. These lesions are usually tightly attached to the coccyx and resection requires en bloc coccygectomy.[1]
Adrenal rest tumor:
Adrenal rest tumors are extremely rare, and, although congenital in nature, are often classified as "miscellaneous". They are treated as ectopic adrenal tumors (including pheochromocytoma) .[1]
Inflammatory lesions:
Inflammatory lesions may be solid or cystic (abscess) and usually represent extensions of infection either in the perirectal space or in the abdomen (infected congenital cysts are not considered primarily inflammatory). Foreign body granulomas may result from barium or suture material. Pelvic and/or perineal sepsis can track into this space. Crohn's disease and diverticulitis may also manifest with retrorectal inflammation. Finally, more uncommon inflammatory conditions (tuberculosis, granulomatous disease) have been reported in this area.[1, 5]
Neurogenic lesions:
Neurogenic lesions typically arise from peripheral nerves and represent about 10% of retrorectal tumors. These tumors include neurofibromas and sarcomas, neurilemomas, ependymomas, and ganglioneuromas. Ependymomas are most common. Pain and neurologic dysfunction are often presenting symptoms and are related to the route of the involved nerve. Radical resection (often resulting in significant disability) is usually required, but overall survival appears to be good.[1, 6, 8]
Osseous lesions:
Osseous lesions also make up about 10% of retrorectal lesions and include osteomas and bone cysts, as well as neoplasms such as osteogenic sarcoma, Ewing's tumor, chondromyxosarcoma, and giant cell tumors. Although benign lesions in this region are often amenable to radical resection, local recurrence can be problematic. Malignant lesions in this location are typically advanced and have poor prognosis.[1, 5, 6, 21]
Miscellaneous lesions in the retrorectal space include a wide variety of both benign and malignant masses (Table 1). Treatment and prognosis are usually related to the natural history of the underlying disease.[21]
Clinical presentation and evaluation:
Symptoms of retrorectal tumors are often nonspecific and are related the location and size of the lesion. The majority of benign cystic lesions are asymptomatic and are discovered on routine rectal examination.[6] Infection and/or bony invasion may produce pain (lower back, rectal/pelvic, or lower extremity). Postural headache or headache associated with changes in intraabdominal pressure are suggestive of anterior meningocele. Large masses (either cystic or solid) may cause obstruction, leading to constipation, straining, or overflow incontinence. Rarely, large neoplasms can cause obstructed labor and lead to life-threatening dystocia.[22]
Evaluation begins with a careful rectal examination. Almost all retrorectal masses can be palpated and the location, size, and proximal extent of the tumor are critical for surgical planning. Plain x-rays are often obtained and occasionally useful; for example, the "scimitar sign" is pathognomonic for anterior meningocele. CT scans have been used extensively, but with recent advances in technology, pelvic MRI is emerging as the most sensitive and specific imaging study. Myelogram is occasionally necessary if there is central nervous system involvement.[7]
One critical, and often misunderstood, component of evaluating retrorectal lesions involves the role of biopsy. In general, biopsy is almost never indicated. For resectable lesions, surgical resection is both the best diagnostic and therapeutic option. For cystic lesions, needle biopsy or aspiration may result in infection; in meningocele this may cause meningitis. Biopsy of malignant lesions (especially chordoma) can result in tumor spread and seeding of the needle track. If a patient has undergone needle biopsy of a chordoma, it is important to excise the biopsy track at the time of resection. The main indication for biopsy is in patients with unresectable tumors in order to direct nonoperative therapy.
For patients who are medically fit for an operation, treatment of retrorectal lesions is almost always surgical resection. The approach depends upon the nature of the lesion and upon its location. Lesions that do not extend below S4 (high lesions) can be resected transabdominally (anterior approach). Lower lesions can be resected transsacrally (posterior approach). If the upper extent of the lesion can be palpated on rectal examination, it is likely to be resectable transsacrally. Larger lesions or those in an intermediate position may require a combined abdominal and sacral operation. Invasion of the rectum requires rectal resection. Sacrococcygeal invasion requires coccygectomy and/or sacrectomy. In these complicated cases, a multidisciplinary team, including a colon and rectal surgeon, neurosurgeon or orthopedic surgeon, and plastic surgeon is critical. [1, 9, 23] The reader is directed to a surgical textbook and/or atlas for a more detailed description of these operations.
Medical and/or radiation therapy are relatively ineffective in treating retrorectal lesions. Malignancies in this location are frequently resistant to chemotherapy and radiation. Radiation is occasionally useful for palliation.
Longterm outcome after resection of a retrorectal lesion depends upon the type of tumor and on adequate resection at the initial operation. For benign lesions, survival is excellent, but local recurrence is common. Recurrent lesions can often be resected for cure. Prognosis after resection of malignant lesions is variable and reflects the biology of the underlying tumor. For chordoma, local recurrence is common, and reports of longterm survival are highly variable, ranging from 43% to 75% five year survival and 9% to 35% ten year survival [6, 18-20] [17] Other malignancies tend to have poorer prognosis.

Porsche is one of only a few car manufacturers to carry out intensive tyre development and testing and regularly issues lists of manufacturer-approved summer and winter tyres for all new vehicles.
However, tyre design as well as tread patterns and rubber compounds change over time, and certain types of tyres are discontinued, while new tyres come on the market.
In order to recommend tyres for both drivers of Classic Porsche cars and for After Sales, Porsche also issues lists of approved tyres at regular intervals for Classic vehicles and youngtimers. For this purpose, more than 150 different sets of tyres are tested in the most varied disciplines on the relevant original vehicles.

In a photo provided by WGME/TV, a sign at a road construction site was changed by a hacker to read "Warning Zombies Ahead!" in Portland, Maine, Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2012. (AP Photo/Jeff Peterson, WGME/TV)
MARQUETTE, Mich. (AP) — No, zombies aren't attacking northern Michigan.
Two local television stations say hackers broke into their Emergency Alert System with messages Monday warning of zombies. Along with a crawl strip, an audio message said "dead bodies are rising from their graves" and "attacking the living."
The messages ran on public station WNMU and WBUP. Two Montana stations also were hit.
WNMU General Manger Eric Smith says police determined the source isn't local and may be from another country. He wasn't aware of any arrests and says equipment changes have been made to prevent future incidents.
The Michigan Association of Broadcasters told its members about programming changes to prevent hacking. Association President Karole White says it's the first breach of the emergency system she's aware of since its inception in the 1940s.
