Seat Our Delegates Now!
Howard Dean, and Members of the Media: The DNC argument for not seating the MI and FL delegates is incorrect, because it places the wrong emphasis on American democracy. As you know, the will of the American People trumps the self-serving interests of party politics every time. Registered Democrats voted overwhelmingly for Hillary Clinton in MI and FL during the legitimate primaries that took place in both states. It is disheartening to see the DNC take such a fraudulent position on this, because the DNC position presupposes an influence over the Democratic Party, and the free and fair elections process which it doesn\'t have. Harold Ickes, Governor Granholm (D-MI), Governor Crist (R-FL), Senator Ben Nelson (D-FL) and a majority of registered democrats in MI and FL have all spoken overwhelmingly that their delegates must be seated. We the undersigned urge the DNC do just that. There should be no do over. MI and FL must be seated!

IPO trends for the year ahead: prepare early, move fast, says EY
(Toronto, 9 July 2012) In spite of tepid growth and prevailing global economic turbulence, IPO markets showed remarkable resilience in 2011. And in Canada there's a robust pipeline of companies ready to list, says EY in a recent report.
In fact, Canadian companies and sectors continued to post impressive results in 2011, and the number of IPOs is expected to increase significantly in 2012.
"Overall, the number of issuers has gone up by 4% in the last year, which is quite encouraging," says Bill Demers, Partner and Canadian IPO Leader. "The windows for completing a deal successfully are likely to open and close quickly as the IPO market functions very much in cycles. And right now, there are a lot of companies ready to go public. They're just waiting for the right window to open."
As the markets evolve in the second half of 2012, companies considering an IPO this year should factor in the following current trends, which have been outlined in the ninth annual EY Global IPO trends report.
- Learning to live with volatility. Despite the steady outlook for the Canadian economy, the ongoing sovereign debt crisis, global political instability, sluggish growth prospects and the unpredictable nature of the market will all have a cautionary influence on Canadian IPO decisions for at least the next 12 months.
- Managing execution risk. Valuation and pricing conditions continue to change quickly, and a record number of companies have had to withdraw their listing plans. The increased execution risk changes the way companies need to plan for their IPO.
- Preparing early, moving fast. IPO companies need to ensure they have a clear, compelling story to tell investors about their financials, so the key is to prepare early, manage risk that might slow down a listing, and prepare to move quick once a viable market window opens.
- Executives are keeping an open mind. Many companies are taking their IPO to foreign markets, rather than listing on their national market by default. Also, companies are seeking new forms of equity financing, such as crowd-funding portals to broaden their funding options.
- Central bankers are the key holders. Sovereign debt weighed heavily on global IPO markets last year, but as 2012 moves forward, the outlook is bright. However, the key to sustained IPO recovery will largely remain in the hands of the world's central bankers and sovereign leaders.
- Companies are proving profitable. It's worth noting that many companies have had strong corporate earnings growth, with growth rates forecasted to rise in the second half of 2012. Profitable, capital-hungry companies and a positive equity market sentiment are two key ingredients for a vibrant IPO market.
- Learning from blockbuster IPOs. One deal does not make a trend, but IPO companies in all sectors can learn a lot from studying recent new-listing experiences — how they priced their company, how they funded the company and how they managed execution risk.
- IPOs are boosting from private equity. In the US, nine of the year's 10 biggest IPOs involved private-equity-backed companies. Private equity firms have become more nimble: when market windows opened, they were ready to move quickly. In Canada, there is an estimated $40 billion worth of capital raised. There has also been a rise in venture-capital- backed IPOs globally in 2011. We expect this to continue in 2012.
About the report
The ninth annual EY Global IPO trends report highlights the outlook for IPO markets and analyzes the key trends of 2011. It includes the perspectives of some of the world's top investment bankers, whom we'd like to thank for their time and support.

Conservation Program to Launch Bold Ideas, Accelerate Innovation
When USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) launched the Regional Conservation Partnership Program, (RCPP) we envisioned a program that would help local and diverse organizations to accelerate innovation, bring new partners to the table, and demonstrate the value and effectiveness of voluntary, private lands conservation to a national audience.
The response was tremendous! More than 5,000 partners submitted nearly 600 pre-proposals from all 50 states and each critical conservation area. The total amount of NRCS funding requested was more than six times what was available. About $2.7 billion in federal assistance was requested, but incredibly these partnerships offered about $2.9 billion in leveraged conservation funding and in-kind support to deliver their projects. In the end, NRCS has about $394 million in total funding to co-invest in projects during this first signup. Read more »

Doing nothing is one option but only if you make a conscious
decision to do nothing. You do have plenty of alternatives open
to you - dotNet, Linq, Access, SQL Server to mention but a few
- ignoring the problem is not an option.
We have clients who are still using MS-DOS versions of FoxPro
from the early 90's. These programs have been running for
fifteen years and their users see no reason to change them.
These DOS versions of FoxPro have been out of Microsoft support
for very nearly as long but that has not stopped the programs
working. The only problems that the users have is that they
are having to downgrade any new computers from Vista. Not
that they have to buy new computers very often. These programs
run very quickly indeed on a 486 computer under Windows 95.
Doing nothing is an attractive proposition if you are sure that
you will continue to have access to the skills that will
occassionally be needed. Once in a while one of our DOS customers
will suffer a problem with file corruption. It's easy enough for
us to recover the data but FoxPro skills are going to become more
and more rare over the next ten years so you do need to be sure
of your support. We have no plans to stop our
for FoxPro databases so call us if you're a UK Fox user.
Realistically then, doing nothing is only an option for a
small company, or for a small division within a larger
company who can keep a couple of computers dedicated to
their current FoxPro system. A VFP 9 system should run
reliably for at least the next ten years.
What will replace Visual FoxPro when support ceases in 2015?

Microsoft Access is a good replacement for a small FoxPro database.
SQL Server and dotNet make a good replacement for larger FoxPro databases.

Guitarist Adam Bosse's initial idea for a band included three guitarists, two drummers, a bass player and horns. He ended up with one drummer, Eric Kenseth, period. End of story. And he's okay with that.
In fact, both Bosse and Kenseth are fine with the arrangement: after jamming on some of Bosse's creations, they liked what they heard, and quickly decided that they didn't need anyone else gumming up the works. BEEK was created, and the two immediately began collaborating.
The musicians have both spent time in UMass-Amherst's jazz program, though not together. After graduating in 2009—Kenseth's year as an incoming freshman—Bosse decided to stay in the area, partially to keep attending UMass concerts. That's where he saw Kenseth play, and instantly fell for his approach to the drums.
So in 2010, after compiling a handful of tunes, Bosse reached out to Kenseth and invited him to play in one of the practice rooms at the school.
"I had given him one of the rough charts I had been working on, and just told him to read along and play whatever came to mind," Bosse says. "Right away it struck me how full we sounded playing as just the two of us. When he asked me what other instruments I had in mind for the songs, I gave him a list and his response was, 'We should just do this as a guitar and drum duo.'
"And it was settled. From that point on we started developing the song ideas into a language that fit how we sounded together, and in a matter of a couple rehearsals, we were writing music together."
The duo's atmospheric and, at times, explosive music is influenced by a wide array of artists, from Radiohead, Sonic Youth and Tortoise to Duke Ellington, John Coltrane and Sun Ra.
BEEK has taken a few different approaches to songwriting, citing a need to keep things fresh and find new and exciting ways to create.
"We like to play free often, so we'll just play and record, and see if there's an idea somewhere in the middle we can expand upon," Bosse explains. "But most often, we'll come into the practice with an idea, jam on it for a bit, record it, bring it back home and see if further ideas will develop."
He says they often generate up to a dozen different recordings of every song, each one a development from the previous take.
"We usually take time to let the ideas flesh themselves out," he says, "and it always works out for the best."
BEEK continually strives to strike a balance between structure and spontaneity.
"The tunes we have so far were all written with a lot of room for moments of free improvisation, so that type of freedom of spontaneity really helps shape how the song turns out," says Bosse. "The free sections of the songs have a sort of outline, where we guide ourselves on how to approach the sections. From that point on we just let our playing guide the outcome, and often we stick to the core idea when we play it again, but a song is never really played the same way twice."
BEEK plays Flywheel in Easthampton on Friday, June 24. For songs and more information, visit www.myspace.com/beekband.

Recipe by: Nick Malgieri, David Joachim | from Perfect Light Desserts: Fabulous Cakes, Cookies, Pies, and More Made with Real Butter, Sugar, Flour, and Eggs, All Under 300 Calories Per Generous ServingCookstr
Photo by: Joseph De Leo
I like to use this as an all-purpose tart and pie dough. It works equally well both when you want to bake the raw dough with a filling in it and also as a fully baked empty crust for a creamy or mousselike filling. Though the dough is very low in fat, a bit of sugar helps to tenderize it. Also the presence of the baking powder does several things: First, the leavening action makes the dough fairly light and prevents toughness. Second, baking powder helps the dough to bake through on the bottom, thus avoiding a soggy, underbaked bottom crust, the greatest nightmare of pie and tart baking. Best of all, this dough takes about 5 minutes to make, from when you begin to measure the flour to wrapping it in plastic. The food processor does all the work.
1. Combine all the dry ingredients in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Pulse 3 or 4 times to mix.
2. Add the butter and pulse about 10 or 12 times to mix the butter in finely.
3. Add the egg and water and pulse repeatedly until the dough forms a ball.
4. Invert the bowl to a lightly floured work surface and carefully remove the blade.
5. Form the dough into a disk and wrap it in plastic.
6. Refrigerate the dough for several hours or up to 3 days. You may also roll out the dough immediately; it will be a little soft but entirely capable of being rolled.
7. Before you use the refrigerated dough, unwrap it and place it on a floured work surface. Gently knead the dough to render it malleable, then form it into a disk again before rolling.

Tom Pollock, the studio head-turned-producer (his movie ''Old School'' helped make Will Ferrell the new Adam Sandler), offers an example. ''I'm looking at a copy of ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY with Christian Bale on the cover for a movie coming out [a year] from now,'' he says. ''Is Christian Bale a star? He's a good actor, and let's hope ''Batman'' is great and the kind of movie that makes people into stars. But no, he's not a star. Not yet.''
Um, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY could not be reached for comment.
Where's the next wave? They'll be here. Somebody will find them. It's all about the right things lining up -- the star, the project, the actor being ready to make the next move.''
These are Jerry Bruckheimer's words, but the legendary producer (who helped launch the careers of Cruise, Richard Gere, and Eddie Murphy, among others) is speaking for many in Hollywood, particularly industry vets, who insist the current star shortage is merely a cyclical, temporary dry spell. ''Superstars like Julia Roberts and Tom Cruise come along every 20 years, not every 5 years,'' calculates Rob Moore, a partner in Revolution Studios (sometime home to both Roberts and Garner). ''That's why they're so special and so loved.''
Maybe so. Maybe Keira Knightley or Clive Owen -- or any of the other nonstars who share top billing in Bruckheimer's $90 million-plus ''King Arthur'' -- will eventually grow up to become the next Roberts or Cruise.
But there's another theory circulating: that the long, genteel era of old-fashioned megastars is crumbling to an end and a new, modern age of mass-produced disposable stars is dawning. According to this hypothesis, these old-timers are cleaving to an obsolete star system. ''It's a cultural thing,'' explains Chamian. ''Everything comes and goes faster today. I don't know if we can even use the term 'movie star' in the traditional sense anymore.''
''The movies have become a medium directed at very young people,'' elaborates David Thomson, author of ''The Biographical Dictionary of Film.'' ''So the average age of stars has shifted younger. And that means they have to be [constantly] renewed, because every few years you've got a new sub-generation coming to the movies who want to discover their own stars.'' And each successive sub-generation seems less interested in the stars that came before. ''I was teaching a course and asked a bunch of 19-year-olds what Tom Cruise meant to them and not one person said anything,'' says entertainment attorney and author Peter Dekom (''Not on My Watch: Hollywood vs. the Future''). ''Stars like Cruise don't mean [as much] to people under 25. You can't sell movies with them to this generation. That's over.'' (Though Hollywood will continue to put Dekom's theory to the test: Cruise's ''Collateral'' opens Aug. 6.)
What you can sell young audiences are small-screen spectacles like ''American Idol'' and ''Survivor'' -- hugely successful reality TV series showcasing ''stars'' who come and go from week to week and whose ''careers'' are as short-lived as viewers' attention spans. Look at it this way: Last May, the biggest TV personality in the world was Fantasia Barrino, with 31 million fans tuning in to watch her walk away the winner of ''American Idol.'' By next May, someone else will have replaced her.

Topic Outline
Induction therapy in the acute leukemias aims to reduce the total body leukemic cell population from approximately 1012 to below the cytologically detectable level of about 109 cells. It is generally assumed, however, that a substantial burden of leukemia cells persists undetected (ie, "minimal residual disease"), leading to relapse within a few weeks or months if no further post-remission therapy (ie, additional consolidation chemotherapy) were administered. However, even when an adult patient is in complete remission (CR) following additional induction and/or consolidation therapy, the majority will ultimately relapse, indicating that attainment of CR, as defined below, is not sufficient to guarantee long-term remission and/or "cure". (See "Induction therapy for acute myeloid leukemia in younger adults".)
This review will discuss the subject of minimal residual disease in patients who have been treated for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are in complete remission. Standard morphologic and cytologic methods for diagnosing de novo or relapsed leukemia are discussed separately, although their limitations are briefly reviewed here. (See "Clinical manifestations, pathologic features, and diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia".)
Complete remission in AML has been defined using the following criteria developed by an International Working Group (table 1) [1-3]:
●Normal values for absolute neutrophil count (>1000/microL) and platelet count (>100,000/microL), and independence from red cell transfusion.
●A bone marrow biopsy that reveals no clusters or collections of blast cells. Extramedullary leukemia (eg, central nervous system or soft tissue involvement) must be absent.

BILLINGS - Bench Blvd. is closed to through traffic from Lincoln Lane to Hilltop Road with some side streets also closed due to this project. The intersection of Hilltop and Bench is open with traffic flow similar to the future roundabout. Remember, working activities and obstacles continue in the center of the future roundabout and require caution. Watch for changing conditions, dirt and gravel surfaces with flaggers and signage throughout the work zone.
On Rimrock Road, look for continued miscellaneous road work from Rehberg Lane to Zimmerman Trail with no through traffic from Zimmerman to 38th Street and single lane traffic only and a rough road from 38th to Shiloh. Use a different route when possible.
Avenue E is closed due to building construction from 17th Street West to 15th Street West also expect traffic control devices on 17th Street West from Avenue E to Avenue D. Slow down throughout this busy construction area.
Broadwater Avenue still has single lane traffic only from 19th Street West to 24th Street West with the intersection of Broadwater and 19th open.
Look for work to continue on Montana Avenue from 5th Street West to North 18th Street. Currently work consists of curb, gutter and sidewalk replacement and can create single lane traffic, a 25 mph speed limit and workers and equipment throughout the work zone.
Hesper Road remains closed to all through traffic from Gabel Road to Shiloh Road.
The far left lane remains blocked on Montana Avenue from North 29th Street to North 27th Street. Remember, no left turn is permitted onto 27th from Montana Avenue. Slow down throughout this construction zone.
In Laurel, Cottonwood Avenue from 5th Avenue to 2nd Street and 5th Avenue from Main to 2nd Street are closed to all through traffic for road repairs and sidewalk replacement. Business and residential access is being maintained.

Keen sense so I smell the hate
Middle finger we getting paid

Is there anyone in the world who wears Dolce & Gabbana better than the brand's longtime muse, Monica Bellucci? I think not. The 47-year-old mother of two (seriously) is flawless and all, but — that dress. I'm enamored of the obscenely gorgeous photorealistic florals the design duo behind the Italian fashion house conjured up for their Autumn/Winter collection, and this sexy sheath looks even better on voluptuous Monica than it did on the runway clotheshanger stand-in. Divine.

THE Stratford Mop of 1914 appeared little changed from previous years. Wartime austerity had not yet set in and few people foresaw that the conflict would be lengthy. One of the great traditions of the fair was its roasts. No less than five oxen and seven pigs were rotating on the spits outside the pubs on the big day. The excursion trains brought their usual hundreds of revellers from Birmingham and other centres of population. None of Stratford's conscripts had yet embarked overseas, although just five days before, a regular with the South Wales Borderers, Sgt RH Savage, had been the first Stratfordian to fall victim to the war. He had been struck by shrapnel at the Battle of the Aisne and died of his wounds in Bournbrook Military Hospital.
Four years ago Ellis Holtom, of Stratford-upon-Avon, was born with half a working heart. Later, the Herald featured his condition as a tribute to the work of Birmingham Children's Hospital where he was treated. Now, to mark Congenital Heart Defect Week his mum, Vicki, updates his story. . .
ALL 326 local planning authorities in England, councils like Stratford-on-Avon District, need a local plan. The core strategy is a component of that local plan. It contains all the local district wide policies that need to be considered when processing planning applications. New development needs to satisfy local needs, helping to realise the hopes and ambitions of its communities and protect them from situations they fear. New homes and places to work should provide then with a healthy lifestyle, a pleasant place to live, good recreational facilities and above all the infrastructure that enhances their quality of life. The buzzword to describe this is 'sustainable'.
THE poor are paying more than they should be for their energy, according to damning new evidence from Stratford-upon-Avon's Citizens Advice Bureau. Prepayment meters (PPMs) are costing users in fuel poverty a "disproportionate amount" for what little gas and electricity they can afford, the bureau has found. There are around 7.2 million people on prepayment meters in the UK and several thousand in the district of Stratford. Despite Stratford's reputation as an affluent area, the bureau is being forced to come to the aid of more and more people living in fuel poverty on an increasingly regular basis.
THE INDEPENDENT candidate for Warwickshire's police and crime commissioner, Ron Ball, was elected into the role today, suggesting the people of Warwickshire do not want party politics influencing local policing.
After the first round of votes, Mr Ball was second in the running, having received 21,410 votes. The Labour candidate James Plaskitt was winning with 22,308 votes, and the Conservative candidate, Fraser Pithie, was eliminated after receiving 20,571 votes.
However, because the Supplementary Vote (SV) system was used in the PCC elections, the second choices of those who voted for Pithie were then counted.
Mr Ball easily overtook Mr Plaskitt, as it became apparent those who voted Conservative first, were unlikely to cast their second vote for Labour.
In the Stratford district, Ball received 3,909 of Pithie's votes, whereas Plaskitt only garnered 683 more. The final total count was 33,231 for Ball, and 25,200 for Plaskitt.
Mr Ball, who has been elected for four years and will be paid £65,000 a year, said: "In terms of the result, I think I tapped into the feelings that this was bringing party politics too close to policing. I don't think the other candidates really recognised that."
The whole election was marred by a dismal turnout. Only 66,085 people turned out to vote in Warwickshire, just 15.65% of the electorate. The Electoral Commission have launched an inquiry into the "dismal" turnout figures throughout England and Wales.
Mr Ball said: "The low turnout is the fault of the government which did such a bad job of selling a flagship policy. I don't know if they're embarrassed, but they should be."
The new role is designed to ensure the policing needs of the communities in Warwickshire are met. The Home Office say police commissioners will give the public a say when it comes to cutting crime.
Warwickshire Police Chief Constable Andy Parker said: "Following the election of the first police and crime commissioner for Warwickshire the top priorities were a continuation of the strategic alliance with West Mercia offering the best possible service with the resources we have available, which to me means, catching more criminals and reducing crime. We need to make sure we are affordable and sustainable as we go forward."
