This article is a contribution to the debate on whether to mainstream gender, and how to mainstream gender, from the UK Gender and Development Network (GADN) Gender Mainstreaming Working Group. It draws on nine case studies of gender mainstreaming in the UK-based offices of international non-government organisations, and finds a complex but generally positive picture of progress. It concludes that the case for gender mainstreaming remains valid. Women's projects on their own are limited in their ability to bring about fundamental change for women - complementary gender mainstreaming efforts are required to ensure that all development spending takes women's rights and gender equality into account. Success in gender mainstreaming depends on the skills, resources, and influence of internal gender advocates, in combination with the effect of external influences on the enabling environment of the organisation. Gender mainstreaming is a long-term process which requires time, resources, skill, and persistence - but there is clear evidence of positive change.

Housing inventory at an all time low!
Our NJ Midtown Direct housing inventory is down 300 homes in January compared to last year… an all time low! But here's what I find interesting…a survey done by KCM says that 71% of homeowners would sell in the next 12 months. While this may seem like an inflated number, even if a portion of that staggering percentage is true we are in for a huge increase in inventory this spring (April-June). I have personally received many more calls to list Read more

The "perfect storm" for New Jersey Midtown direct home buyers
Interest rates are the lowest they have ever been so if you haven't refinanced or if you've been putting off a home purchase, you might want to seriously consider acting sooner rather than later.

Lower Rates, Lower Competition, and Even Lower Prices… Why wait for Spring?

Millburn/ Short Hills Inventory comparison- Jan thru June 2009, 2010
It is hard to believe that half of 2010 has come and gone. Looking at our local statistics for Millburn/Short Hills we see some interesting activity in the first quarter.

Producer Notes
Jacques Seysses began his career as a winemaker in 1965 as an intern of Gerard Potel at Pousse d'Or. The experience paid off as he gleaned valuable information from the great Burgundian winemakers of the time. In 1967, he struck out on his own with the purchase of Domaine Graillet in Morey St Denis, which he renamed Domaine Dujac. The first vintage, in 1968, proved a complete disaster, but... More »

Sherman Oaks is a very affluent neighborhood with residents that include celebrities, executives, and ultra high net worth individuals in the San Fernando Valley region of the city of Los Angeles, California. It has two city parks and a senior center. The neighborhood includes eight public and seven private schools. Mulholland Estates in Sherman Oaks is a luxury subdivision under construction northeast of the intersection of Beverly Glen Boulevard and Mulholland Drive, an area that is just outside of Beverly Hills. Houses dubbed 'South of the Boulevard' range from $2 million to $50 million. The main commercial pedestrian-friendly shopping district was established in 1999 and is known as "The Village at Sherman Oaks." This shopping district is the heart of the commercial area. The Village at Sherman Oaks is located along Ventura Boulevard between Van Nuys Boulevard and Cedros Avenue. It continues along Van Nuys Boulevard between Ventura Boulevard and Hortense Avenue.

A partner of the Los Angeles Suburban Homes Company, Gen. Moses Hazeltine Sherman, developed Sherman Oaks. The company had subdivided 1,000 acres (400 ha) of land that would become Sherman Oaks. In 1927 each acre was sold for $780.[1] Sherman's other major venture was the Los Angeles Pacific Railroad.
In 1991, a group of homeowners living in the Chandler Estates area, successfully petitioned former Los Angeles City Councilmember Zev Yaroslavsky to re-draw the boundaries of Sherman Oaks from Magnolia to Burbank Blvd to the north, and from Coldwater Canyon to Van Nuys Blvd to the west, with the goal of including their neighborhood. This request wasn't anything new to the San Fernando Valley; other neighborhoods had either sought to change their names, or sought to attach themselves onto more affluent neighborhoods to escape from what they saw as growing urban blight and the collapse of their social status.[2] Residents in the area argued, however, that the area was originally part of Sherman Oaks, but was labeled Van Nuys instead though the creation of zip codes in 1962; some residents were able to produce a few property deeds to present their case.[3]
Just a few weeks after the Chandler Estates area successfully seceded from Van Nuys, Magnolia Woods, a 45 block area bordered by Van Nuys Boulevard on the east and the San Diego Freeway on the west, and between Burbank and Magnolia Boulevards, also successfully petitioned Los Angeles City council member Marvin Braude to secede from Van Nuys and join Sherman Oaks. Petitioners in the area argued that their neighborhood was also part of Sherman Oaks, though they were only able to produce 22 deeds showing so, however. As a result of this change, Van Nuys Middle School became separated from its namesake neighborhood.[4]
Finally, in 2009, the Los Angeles City council voted to redraw neighborhood boundaries again to allow an area of about 1,800 homes in Van Nuys, bordered by Hazeltine Avenue to the east, Sepulveda Boulevard to the west, Burbank Boulevard to the south and Califa and Tiara Streets to the north, to join Sherman Oaks. Homeowners in the area created a movement known as, "Part Of Sherman Oaks." They argued that they were separated geographically by the industrial zone located on Oxnard Street and by the Orange Line right-of-way. They also argued that they more closely identified with Sherman Oaks because its where they shopped and their children attended school. Like other neighborhood name changes that took place in the valley, there were critics who accused proponents of attempting to increase their property values and social status by disassociating themselves from what they saw as urban blight.[5]
The 1994 Northridge earthquake caused damages in the surrounding area. The Community Redevelopment Agency sought to manage the rebuilding efforts. The homeowners in the Sherman Oaks area filed a lawsuit to prevent the agency from managing efforts, and the lawsuit went in the favor of the homeowners.[1]
In contrast to much of the Valley, the area is relatively urbanized, with commercial skyscrapers along Ventura Boulevard as well as scattered throughout. In addition, residential densities are highly mixed, with apartment and condominium neighborhoods alongside single-story residential ones. The area is a local hub for regional transportation, business, and shopping.[citation needed]

As of the 2010 census, according to the San Fernando Valley Almanac, Sherman Oaks had a population of 52,677 people and 25,255 households. The racial makeup of the neighborhood was 82% non-Hispanic white, 5% Asian American and 3% African American; 11% were Hispanic or Latino of any race. Other races made up less than 1%.[citation needed]
The Los Angeles Times reported that the 2000 U.S. census counted 61,166 residents in the 9.15-square-mile Sherman Oaks neighborhood, including a wide swath of the Santa Monica Mountains—or 6,687 people per square mile, among the lowest population densities for the city. In 2008, the city estimated that the resident population had increased to 65,436.[9]
In 2000, the percentages of residents aged 19 to 49 and 65 and older were among the county's highest.[9]

The breakdown was whites, 73.8%; Latinos, 11.8%; Asians, 5.7%; blacks, 4.4%; and others, 4.4%. Iran (14,1%) and Mexico (8.8%) were the most common places of birth for the 26.2% of the residents who were born abroad—an average percentage for Los Angeles.[9]
The percentage of households that earned $125,000 and up was high for Los Angeles County. The average household size of two people was low when compared to the rest of the city and the county. Renters occupied 58.9% of the housing stock and house- or apartment-owners held 41.1%.[9]
The percentages of divorced residents and of widows were among the county's highest.[9]

Richard Close, the president of the Sherman Oaks Homeowners Association (SOHA), stated that, as paraphrased by Dinah Eng of the Los Angeles Times, in 1978 Sherman Oaks "played a key role in the drive for Proposition 13" and in 2002 "was the epicenter of the ill-fated San Fernando Valley secession movement".[1]
Forty-five percent of Sherman Oaks residents aged 25 and older had earned a four-year degree by 2000, a high percentage for both the city and the county. The percentage of those residents with a master's degree or higher was also high for the county.[9]

Women - the 'Indian' way
- Comments (8)

India has a reputation of respecting women, including treating her as a Goddess. The birth of a girl, so goes a popular Hindu saying,is akin to the arrival of Goddess Lakshmi - the harbinger of wealth. Also many would argue that in today's day and age of technology and global power, India, especially Indian women, have advanced leaps and bounds. Then why is it that the statistics and figures tell a different story? Some of the most advanced states of India, record the highest number of crimes against women. Also it is alarming to know that violence against women is on the rise, in the same country where politicians and bureaucrats claim a 'shining' India on one hand, while the women folk are still under extreme darkness. They say rapists should be severely punished but also blame the victims for wearing provocative clothes. In such hypocrisy and double standards, many a times the victim feels cheated and helpless. A recent survey done by a leading foundation, placed India among the worst place for women in the top 19 economies of the world. The survey which polled 370 gender specialists, found women in India at risk of life even before they were born, because of the nation's obsession for a male child. Dowry deaths and brutal honour killings are still common in some parts of India. The family ( mostly patriarchal) under extreme societal pressure decides to brutally murder their own daughters if she chooses to marry a boy outside her community/ caste, in the name of preserving and maintaining family's name. Yes we do have a female head of Government, and women holding challenging positions in various fields, but scratch a little deeper, and out comes the harsh truth. A recent incident which fits perfectly in this scenario, left us all shocked to say the least. In one of our states of India, where women were thought to be relatively safer compared to other states, a teenage girl, was publicly stripped, molested, and pulled by her hair by a mob of men,all this done in the full view of authorities who had the responsibility of protecting her. The incident did leave the country shocked and appropriate arrests were also made. But was it enough? Don't we need a radical shift in our psyche regarding freedom enjoyed by women. The liberty of leading one's life in their own way should not depend on the gender of the human. It is disheartening to know that such kind of 'indoctrination' of inequality starts very early on in our lives. At home, it is sometimes the mother, who submit themselves to patriarchy, just to survive in her own household. And the practice is followed on by her son, who expects the same from his wife. This cycle of patriarchy needs to break to give rise to equality.The government promises to do more but it is time, the womenfolk stood up for their beliefs and dignity. As rightly told by judge Katju " laws alone can only play 20 % of the role in empowering women in our country". 80% of the role will be played by education, by changing the mindset, the mentality of (some) men who are still to a large extent feudal-minded which means they regard women as inferior." Hope that day comes soon when equality is not only taught, but also practised by one and all.

Laws are there to protect the
Laws are there to protect the vulnerable and ensure justice; but there is need to change of mindset of not only the men but also the women who are the gatekeeper. Great piece!
Terrific Piece, Great Leadership Potential!!
I very much appreciate your piece and you will go far bringing women of India to a better standard of living! As you said, education is key, not just of women, but of men who continue the cycle of patriarchy with each new generation. There should be classes in each school in each country that empowers men and women, girls and boys to realize that half of the population is being held back. With equality, this half of the population can bring wealth to the whole family/country...isn't that logic enough to encourage everyone to change? I mean, some people can't change but instead of focusing on those that can't, we should focus on those who can, those who haven't become hardened in their ways...YOU are the future and I know you will do great things for your country...I wish you all the success in the world, the future is YOU!! And if you ever feel alone, know there are many of those just like you who work tirelessly and thanklessly for change...a special place in heaven is reserved for you my friend..
Your Friend,
Love your thoughts and ideas!
Thank you for your article Mukut! You really brought to life the real situation of women in India today. I completely agree with you as well, laws and policies go only so far in helping to alleviate the situation. However, as you mentioned with your example of the women stripped in front of authorities, corruption within the ruling political organizations and local police authorities inhibits enforcement of these laws as well. So it really is an entire systemic problem! Out of curiosity, it would be great to hear some of your ideas on how communities can become better educated, since I completely agree with you, education is a key piece of the puzzle. I'd also be curious to hear your thoughts on how women are treated between different social/economic classes - is there much of a difference depending on level of affluence? Once again, great job, your thoughts have really provided a new level of awareness :)

Wonderful thoughts and ideas!
Dear Mukut,
Wonderful piece of writing! Yes, women empowerment needs a lot of issues to be settled down and most importantly as you pointed out it is 'education' of both men and women, which not only teaches them how to read, write and earn a degree but enlightens their heart and mind, to teach them to distinguish between right and wrong and respect for everyone's right and dignity.
Rightly said, I wish and hope the day comes soon that we don't have to struggle for our basic fundamental rights to live, I too hope equality does not remain confined to books and moral stories but we see it in practice by everyone. We need to keep our hope alive and till that point we have to remain strong and keep inspiring each other. Within our limits, whatever best possible we should keep working for a better change.
Thank you for sharing so nice thoughts.
With best wishes and love
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. ..........Hellen Keller

@Jamo you shouldn't get that something must not be setup right. My previous place used VDI for web conferencing daily. Worked a great.
But then, many schools don't actually *need* fat clients everywhere. Our thin clients were decided upon because they are used for web browsing, powerpoint and word.
@Jamo you shouldn't get that something must not be setup right. My previous place used VDI for web conferencing daily. Worked a great.
They do work, don't get me wrong, but they don't feel like an upgrade.
The only time I have really had a problem is on a 300ms latency connetion in Oman to Servers in London.
With the price difference just spec up 120/128gb SSD's instead. I really couldn't suggest using mechanical drives any more. Just avoid an original Sandforce drives or OCZ.
As for VDI/thin clienting, it's not a one size fits all. Some schools work differently to others - as good as it may be, I'd hate to think how it would work here when the school culture has an (admirable) ability to use hefty programs anywhere they want including Solidworks and CS5. However we're yet to see something in place, hoping to see something in action soon before making too much of a judgement on it!
VMware KB: Recording sound through analog input devices fail in VMware View with PCoIP
But in terms of throughput you are just hammering your network! You could also use the RES VDI extender app, which looks brilliant, however its quite expensive. I have managed to get a bit of analogue recording through PCoIP with the unsupported driver that teradici make, but it wasn't as seemless as the thick clients.
I think what I am trying to say here is it works well, but it is not faster, nor vastly cheaper than thick clients, especially with Microsofts licencing scheme meaning that you have to buy an OEM licence for Windows to allow the EES VDA licence to apply. This means you cannot use the traditional thin client units without paying a premium.
cheers for all the input everyone...
Microsoft TS is something we are hoping to implement in the near future on some of our older existing hardware and something along the lines of this OS (:: Thinstation - a light, full-featured Linux thin client OS ::). We are yet to trial this and the main thing holding us back is our server infrastructure... We have recently purchased a server solely for remote access from home but without a second server capable of taking the load should this fail I am reluctant to role this out to any classrooms. Having said that we are having a new virtual infrastructure installed in the Summer and anticipate this being something we look to implement following this (maybe for admin/teacher workstations).
As for the current desktop purchase, as these computers will potentially run the CS suite of software, along with possible media creation in the future we have decided fat clients would be better suited. After speaking to quite a number of companies yesterday we now have a better idea of what we are looking for and have selected a product which I feel suits our needs. SSD will have to wait
@synaesthesia you would be surprised that CS5 can work flawlessly in VDI enviroments provided the performance tweaks for graphics are followed.
HP T5735 Custom Debian install - to allow NLA and Session Broker to work with RDS).
The reason to do this is that it allows me to keep the RDP client up to date to take advantage of things like RemoteFX and any new technologies that come out, in a matter of a few commands rather than having to build an entire new image.
That sounds somewhat worrying! Why will the SSD have to wait? That is the single most important component to ensure you have in my view! The hard disk is the slowest component in a PC, so realistically, having a faster CPU won't give you the boost you want compared to an SSD.As for the current desktop purchase, as these computers will potentially run the CS suite of software, along with possible media creation in the future we have decided fat clients would be better suited.

Getting back on topic I'd seriously look at getting an i5 and 120gb SSD as a minimum if you need 5 years worth of use out of them.
How do you know further down the line your not going to be asked to install an application that is CPU intensive or a large filesize.
Get some quotes for i5 systems if you already havn't.
Perhaps I should have made clearer that at present budget is a very big factor in this purchasing decision at present and as much as I would like i5's + SSD's etc. it is not going to happen at our budget level... something being say £50+ more at a minimum such as the jump to i5 & SSD is a total price increase of £3600. Also, the current age of our students (11-14 at present with a potential move to 11-16) means that we do not have the same hardware requirements as a school carrying out A-Levels upwards. I am also very keen on purchasing equipment that is a suitable fit for our needs and not going over the top just in case we need it in the future.
Having said that I am keen to ensure any purchase we make maximises the budget and we get the best system for the money. This includes ensuring a small amount of overhead for future-proofing (realistically have requirements moved forward THAT much in the previous 5 years, and what changes do people see in the not too distant future that could impact a computers requirement for processing power?) and making sure the system does not have a significant bottleneck, which is just what a mechanical drive could be.
With that in mind I have a question - if budget allowed for one of these two options which would you personally go for? An SSD drive instead of a mechanical drive OR an extended 3 year warranty? It may be that it comes down to that decision in our college as the prices are similar and just wanted to see which people viewed as more important.
***Ignore the above, I was miscalculating and the SSD upgrade is higher than the extended warranty addition.***
Last edited by CyBeRkId2002; 20th February 2013 at 02:33 PM.
I would definately go for an SSD (120GB) we have a fair few computers here that have SSD's and compared to the mechanical 7,200RPM the boot up times and application response times are amazing. As the computers age the SSD's should keep most of same level of performance for a long time whereas I find that the mechanical drives are fading. However others may say the opposite. If you go for an i3 get the fastest one which is currently the Ivybridge i3 3240 @ 3.4GHz Come June time Intel will bring their new chip's out but you are most likely upgrading before then anyway.
Who are you getting the quotes from?
I'd say that if you have a choice between SSD and an i5, go for the SSD and pair it with an i3. That would be the best bang for your buck.
Also, with warranties, whilst they are great for piece of mind, it can work out cheaper to replace components if they die instead (as all the components are off the shelf), it may be worth getting a few of the motherboards spare at the initial purchase, to save having different ones in future should one die but the rest could be bought as things die.

Thanks to the musical ear of a man simply known as Kyle, every week Cuzoogle will feature six songs/videos that you should check out. This week Kyle is featuring Albert Hammond Jr., Stereophonics, Death Cab for Cutie, Lukestar, Brendan Canning and of course his No. 1 pick.
Coincidence and Connection Edition
6. Albert Hammond Jr. – "GFC", You might recognize this guy from a little garage band he's in called The Strokes. This really reminds me of Matthew Sweet. I can't say it enough, in the summer I listen to a lot more happy pop music.
5. Stereophonics – "Pedal pusher", This feels like a raw jam session. These guys originally called themselves "Blind Faith", not knowing that the moniker was already taken. They are also big fans of the Tragically Hip, who knew?
4. Death Cab For Cutie – "Cath", I fell out of love with these guys for a while, but I heard them from across the water when I was playing disc golf last month. This track sounded pretty amazing that day and you've got to love a video with the Haas in it.
3. Lukestar – "Lake Toba", Norwegian power pop and a comic book style video, enough said.
2. Brendan Canning – "Hit The Wall", I was a huge fan of the band hHead when I was younger, and it's nice to see my tastes haven't changed much in fifteen years. I'm pretty sure I saw B.S.S. do a demo version of this track once. What's with this trend of people wearing animal heads in music videos? Do we have "Donnie Darko" to blame?
1. Wild Beasts – "Devil's Crayon", The first thing I ever read about this band was in a review of their last album, it described an "enormous falsetto voice, which soars over chiming guitars…" I agree this is accurate, but the drums caught my attention first. It's kind of like Rick Astley fronting a muted Jane's Addiction. Ugh, I've got nothing…

Love the new A Hammond Jr stuff, very SWEET indeed!
The bridge in that Stereophonics track has a certain Lennon 'Cold Turkey' feel, it'll end up being a polished rawker for sure!
huh, DeathCab– funny video/song that! I've got a friend name 'cath' who likely shouldn't have married the guy she married… does that apply to all 'Caths'?
the lone comment on the Brendan Canning video this morning was "I want this album to be so much better than "Spirit if…"" well good news—it is!

Think his SO is on the verge of stalking
|Thu, 03-27-2003 - 3:58pm
Hi! Hope someone can offer some insight/suggestions. Its one thing for his SO & me to drive by each other & she gives me a dirty look...I deserve that...BUT...this past week she has been driving everywhere I am..sometimes 2 or 3 times a day. Today, I was meeting a friend for lunch but had to make a quick stop at my house. As I was driving away, SHE drives by me...my house is definitely out of the way for her, so I believe she is beginning to follow me. I have been told I should start keeping track of when, where, & how often we keep "running" into each other. I also have been told that she is phoning ex MM at the place he is staying & then hanging up...she does this several time. I do not want him to think its me. I swear she is losing it. Any suggestions? Has anyone else here had this problem.
|Thu, 03-27-2003 - 5:53pm
I haven't had this problem. But, I think the advice to journal it is on the money! Is there someone you can tell? Who knows about your A? She may not be losing it but, she definitely is obsessed with you! It's not safe for you to go it alone! Find help some where from someone! I'm tired of the lies that got me where I was but, if she's following you then she obviously thinks you're still involved with him. So, I suggest a plan!
You have a good guy friend? A brother? Hire someone! It could save your life! Let her see the 2 of you together! Looking like you are so in love! She's following you daily! Give her reason to find another sick hobby! I think possibly she'll concentrate on him (XMM) and leave you alone! Sound workable?

Four New Members Elected
Raleigh, NC – The Board of Directors of Special Olympics North Carolina elected four new members with terms beginning in 2013, according to SONC Board Chairman Ron Henries.
Beginning new terms on the SONC Board of Directors are Zach Commander of Elizabeth City, Katie Nordeen of High Point, Leslie Packer of Raleigh, and Janet Presson of Waynesville. All members will serve a three-year term from Jan. 1, 2013 through Dec. 31, 2015.
Zach Commander, of Elizabeth City, has been participating in Special Olympics for 28 years. Zach became a Sargent Shriver Global Messenger (SONC public speaker) in 1993. He is a member of the Special Olympics North Carolina Athlete Council that meets to discuss athlete-related issues with the Special Olympics NC president. He is also the athlete representative on the NC Law Enforcement Torch Run Committee. He has represented his state and country at the 2010 Special Olympics Athlete Congress in Morocco. He also was selected as one of 10 athletes from across the world to participate in the 2011 International Torch Run Final Leg in Greece. Zach is also an advocate for people with developmental disabilities. He serves on both the local and state Department of Health & Human Resources Consumer Family Advisory committees.
Katie Nordeen, of High Point is a morning news anchor for the WGHP FOX 8 Morning News. She moved to High Point in 2010 after working in television in Deluth, Minnesota. Nordeen's niece has intellectual disabilities which inspired her service to Special Olympics. She has raised funds and awareness for several Special Olympics fundraisers and initiatives such as Over the Edge and Spread the Word to End the Word. In addition, she has supported Special Olympics athletes and presented awards at both local competitions and the state-level SONC Fall Tournament.

State debates easing housing rules for convicts
HARTFORD — Each month in Connecticut, more than 1,500 convicts are released from state prisons and face more hard time trying to get housing and jobs because of their criminal records. About 79 percent of them are expected to be rearrested within five years, according to a Correction Department study released earlier this year.
Some state officials believe that recidivism rate would be lower if Connecticut enacted a law making it easier for convicts to get homes and jobs, but others are adamantly opposed to giving criminals special rights.

When Must I Buy a Stock to Get the Dividend?
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The one question I hear most often about dividends is when do I have to buy a stock in order to receive the payment?
The answer is more complicated than you would think. The company doesn't tell you this date when the dividend is announced and it's not published on the quote pages of TheStreet.com, Yahoo Finance or even the expensive Bloomberg terminal on my desk.
That is, until I coined the term "must-own date" several years back. Terms like "record date" and "ex-date" are commonly thrown around in dividend parlance, but the must-own date is the simple answer that most folks want to drill down to.
Here's how to determine the must-own date for any dividend, so you'll never be confused by this important question again.First, when most dividends are announced, the company generally says it is "payable to shareholders of record" on a certain date. This is useful information, but investors often confuse the record date as the cutoff to receive the dividend. The difference is that stock trades actually settle three days after the fact, even if you're a frequent trader that buys and sells the same name several times a day. Similarly, the ex-date is two trading days before the record date, so another way to look at the must-own date is the day before a stock goes ex-dividend. So now that we know to subtract three days from the record date in order to determine the must-own date, how do the dynamics of the dividend actually work? Here's an example: Let's say ABC Corp., which is trading at $10 a share, declares a regular quarterly dividend today of 10 cents a share (4% yield), payable to shareholders of record on Thursday, Dec. 13. Looking at the calendar, we can determine that the ex-date will be Tuesday, the 11th and the must-own date will be Monday, the 10th. Let's also assume the company is concerned about the pending fiscal cliff and declared the payout for Dec. 27, before any potential tax changes in the new year. Here's how the dividend works: Only investors at the close of trading on Monday, the 10th will receive the dividend. This is the must-own date. You could have owned ABC Corp. for five years, but if you sell it on the must-own date, you will not receive the payment. On the other hand, it's possible to buy ABC shares in the final minutes of trading on Monday, the 10th and receive the full dividend. At the open of trading on the ex-date, Tuesday, the 11th, ABC shares will be adjusted 10 cents lower. This is to reflect the dividend being taken out of the stock, but there's no penalty because of the adjustment. With that in mind, an investor can technically buy ABC at 3:59 p.m. ET on the 10th and sell it at 9:31 a.m. ET on the 11th and still receive dividend in their account on the 27th. Dividends are an important part of investing for long-term growth, but the mechanics of how they're paid can be confusing for investors of any level. Check back here regularly to learn more about how dividends work and how they can be used to enhance overall returns.

A hotel in Rome's city centre isn't always the right choice
Hotel Pulitzer makes its off-centred location its point of strength Rome is big, immense to the eyes of those who don't experience day-to-day life in the city; for tourists and business people, the city centre is magnificent, but often chaotic and too fast-paced.
So why not stay in a design hotel away from the traffic, but well connected to the rest of the city and the city centre? Hotel Pulitzer is strategically positioned and ideal for experiencing the best of what Rome has to offer.
Situated in the heart of the ultra-modern EUR district, Hotel Pulitzer is only 200 meters from the Marconi LINE B underground railway station only a few minutes from the city centre (5 stops to the Colosseum).
Hotel Pulitzer is conveniently located and easy to reach:
• Termini train station is only 7 km from the hotel and 7 stops on the LINE B underground
• Fiumicino airport is 23 km from the hotel
• Ciampino airport is 20 km from the hotel
• Not to be underestimated is the vicinity of the entrance to the A91 motorway which in just a few minutes takes you to Rome's Fiumicino airport
The Roma Exhibition Centre is easy to reach from Tuscolana, Tiburtina and Ostiense stations connected via underground railway lines A and B and a subsequent connection train (FR 1) in the direction of Fiumicino.
For those looking to immerse themselves in the culture and art of ancient Rome, Hotel Pulitzer is within short distance of the papal basilica Saint Paul Outside the Walls (San Paolo Fuori Le Mura) erected in 324 AD on the remains of the tomb of Saint Paul the Apostle.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama counted on the support of younger voters four years ago. Now, a new Republican-leaning "super" political committee wants to bring them to the GOP's side.
Crossroads Generation, a new super PAC formed with the help of a handful of established GOP groups, is tapping into the economic frustrations of under-30 voters facing dim job prospects, crippling student loans or the prospect of having to move back home with their parents.
Starting Monday, the PAC is launching a $50,000 social media ad campaign targeting younger voters in eight swing states, including Ohio and Virginia. Their ultimate goal: woo younger Americans to the Republican side, including some who supported Obama in 2008.
"Younger voters aren't looking for a party label," said Kristen Soltis, who advises the new super PAC's communications. "They're looking for someone to present a solution for how things are going to get better."
Crossroads Generation is drawing upon $750,000 in seed money from GOP organizations like the College Republicans, the Young Republicans, the Republican State Leadership Committee and American Crossroads — itself a super PAC that has raised $100 million so far this election cycle to defeat Obama and will support the Republican nominee, very likely to be Mitt Romney.
"We want to give a voice to our generation," said Derek Flowers, 28, the group's executive director, adding that his generation has faced unprecedented levels of unemployment and debt.
The super PAC is also planning a ground game for this fall, leveraging the roughly 250,000 student-members of the College Republicans who span more than 1,800 campuses across the country.
Obama's campaign defended the president's efforts to reduce Generation Y's unemployment and debt. It said under Obama's leadership the economy added 4.2 million private-sector jobs and that unemployment among recent college graduates is lower than when Obama took office in January 2009.
Conservative and GOP efforts to target under-30 voters this election cycle have been growing, as groups like Generation Opportunity have tapped into Millennials' uneasiness about the economy and the ballooning costs of a college degree.
To be sure, they are issues Obama has realized are essential in maintaining the support of younger voters. Just last month, the president pushed for lowering college costs and freezing student loan interest rates — a message he took on the road to three states strategically important for his reelection effort.
Student loan debt has reached roughly $1 trillion in the United States, and the Federal Reserve Bank of Bank of New York has estimated that 37 million Americans — roughly 15 percent — have outstanding loan debt. About two-thirds of that debt is held by people under 30.

Smith, Theyre Townsend (DNB00)
|←Smith, Sydney
|Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900, Volume 53
Smith, Theyre Townsend
|Smith, Thomas (1513-1577)→
SMITH, THEYRE TOWNSEND (1798–1852), divine, son of Richard Smith of Middlesex, was born in 1798, and was brother of William Henry Smith [q. v.] He was originally a presbyterian, and studied at Glasgow University, but being convinced by reading Hooker that episcopacy was the scriptural form of church government, he resolved to enter the English church. He accordingly matriculated from Queens' College, Cambridge, on 4 Jan. 1823, graduating B.A. in 1827, and M.A. in 1830. After serving a curacy in Huntingdonshire and another in Essex, he was appointed assistant preacher at the Temple in 1835. In 1839 and 1840 he filled the post of Hulsean lecturer at Cambridge, and in 1845 he was presented to the living of Newhaven in Sussex. In March 1848, when Louis-Philippe took refuge in England after his deposition, Theyre Townsend received him on his landing at Newhaven. In the same year Thomas Turton [q. v.], bishop of Ely, who had expressed great admiration of his lectures, collated him to the vicarage of Wymondham in Norfolk. In 1850 he was appointed honorary canon of Norwich. He died on 4 May 1852 at Wymondham.
He married Rebecca, second daughter of Thomas Williams of Coate in Oxfordshire. Smith was the author of: 1. 'Sermons preached at the Temple Church and before the University of Cambridge,' London, 1838, 8vo. 2. 'Hulsean Lectures for the Year 1839,' London, 1840, 8vo. 3. 'Hulsean Lectures for the Year 1840,' London, 1841, 8vo. 4. 'Remarks on the Influence of Tractarianism in promoting Secessions to the Church of Rome,' London, 1851, 8vo. 5. 'The Sacrifice of the Death of Christ,' London, 1851, 12mo.
