moar lux pls
cant get enough of her

Well considering that the summoner is the only one who can hear Sona, it could be she has a very close relationship to the one who is 'partnered' with her.
Ahri is a silly choice, as we already know EXACTLY what she does. In fact, I think she kills the people she screws. Oops.
How does riven feel about http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FVJNiaOL_d...x_Splash_0.jpg

Lux certainly looks like a happy camper.
Absolutely adore this.
When I saw it wasn't complete and that we would have to be waiting for a while, I just about cried.
I read everything you have so far in one night. Was totally captured by the end of the first chapter.
Also, as a fellow writer, I must say that this is a truly fantastic story! I sent a buddy request to your LoL account (That is, if your summoner name is the same as your forum name. Mine is) because I'd love to ask you a bit about your writing!

text: I purchsed a Mr Outdoor brand turkey fryer on sale from Cabelas online, when it was shipped I noticed it didn't have a spigot, and didn't list the quart capacity, it just says "up to 18lb turkey" Is it better to have one with spigot to more easily transfer wort to the fermenter? or do most fryer users just dump it in? I filled the pot with water and it appears to hold 6.5 gallons, is this the satandard size or too small? I am thinking after adding extract, and having enough H2O for a full boil I will be right around 6 gallons total, and 6.5 sounds like a boil-over waiting to happen. Any thoughts on needing a spigot, or pot size?

LaHood: Senate transportation bill shows what Congress capable of when working together
Posted By Tina Grady Barbaccia On March 15, 2012 @ 6:30 am In Economics,eRoadPro Newsletter,News & Analysis,Uncategorized | No Comments
U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood issued the following statement after the Senate passed a transportation bill on March 14.
"Today's [March 14] passage of the Senate transportation bill shows what Congress is capable of when they work together in a bipartisan manner. Thanks to the leadership of Senators Boxer and Inhofe, working with their colleagues from the Banking, Commerce and Finance Committees, states are one step closer to putting Americans to work rebuilding our roads, bridges, transit systems and railways. Like President Obama's transportation proposal, this bill would relieve congestion on our roads, expand our transit and rails systems, and provide Americans with safe, affordable ways to reach their destinations when gas prices are high. I hope that the House will follow their lead in passing a bipartisan transportation bill."

Can Cash Flow Expectations Explain Momentum and Reversal?
Can Cash Flow Expectations Explain Momentum and Reversal?
Coauthor(s): Lu, Zhongjin,
Download (PDF)
This paper uses the predicted patterns of cash flow expectations to differentiate among the three most prominent behavioral theories of stock return momentum and reversal. Using analyst earnings forecasts as a proxy for cash flow expectations, I trace the dynamics of the expectation errors for winner and loser stocks in a 24-month holding period, during which returns are characterized by a momentum phase followed by a reversal phase. The large positive cross-sectional difference in expectation errors between winner and loser stocks gradually shrinks to zero over the holding period. This pattern is most consistent with the underreaction hypothesis in Hong and Stein (1999), in which cash flow expectation errors can only explain momentum, and price extrapolation is needed to explain reversal.

Theater Review: '50s Jukebox Review'
Date: November 28, 2012
by: Paula Atwell | Theater Critic
With a little glitter, a T-Bird-load of talent, some shimmery purple curtains and an enormous wood-stained Wurlitzer, The Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe shakes, rattles and rolls the '50s into living color before the eyes of a wildly enthusiastic audience. Artistic Director Nate Jacobs wrote and directed the musical revue that sketches the story of a group of entertainers who travel on the "Chitlin' Circuit," performing at venues from Memphis to New York. Cristy Owen provides a panoply of costumes illustrating memorable fads from the '50s, including poodle skirts, crinolines, hair bows stuck mid-bouffant, detachable lace collars, a single strand of white pearls, T-strap shoes and sweater sets. Under the music direction of James E. Dodge II and implemented by a group of talented musicians, the swinging music is a soul-satisfying trip down memory lane.
Choreographer Dhakeria Cunningham has got the '50s moves down and the detail in their recreation is dead-on. She also plays Corinna and delivers several delightful dance solos. The large cast includes Ariel Blue as Mama Sass, who lives up to her name in comical bouts with her rival, Lulu McKay, played by Kristal Walker. Blue is thrilling with her rendition of "Hound Dog," in its original, pre-Elvis version. The pair rip it up with the song, "Gabbin' Blues."
"Hound Dog" is answered on the male side by Big Hal Hopper, played with gusto by Gordon R. Gregory, who later kicks it with "Great Balls of Fire." Emmanuel Avraham plays T.J. Brown, the self-proclaimed "Doc of Rock," and joins the cast for some great numbers such as "That'll be the Day." Michael Mendez brings his smooth moves and silky voice for "I'll be Satisfied" as lover boy Bobby Ray. Speaking of moves, Charles Manning as Benny Burrows kills in "Stagger Lee." Henry Washington plays Teddy Turner and knows how to "Splish Splash" and "Get a Job." Will Little joins the cast as Jimmy, whose philandering ways inflame some jealousy. He adds to the hilarity created by the male cast's performance of "Love Potion No. 9."
Tsadok Porter as Kiki Carter, Alyssa White as Sherry Love, and Davronette Henson, a little gal with a huge voice as Mayella Brown, comprise a trio of female singers who are simply divine in such numbers as "Dedicated to the One I Love" and a rollicking "Mashed Potato Time."

The Dreamer: Ryan McGinley
By William Van Meter
"I spent most of my time with him," he says. "His boyfriend was a Barbra Streisand impersonator. Their apartment was drag pandemonium. He was the funnest bro to hang out with. The others wanted to teach me baseball." Ryan devoted his teenage years to skateboarding and painting. When Ryan was 13, Michael returned home. He was wasting away from AIDS.
"We told people he had cancer," Ryan says. "People in the suburbs didn't know gay people and thought you could get AIDS if you got spit on. He passed away when I was 16. Losing my brother is the biggest thing that has happened to me."
McGinley moved to New York City to attend art school and soon befriended a gorgeous dominatrix/prostitute who lived upstairs from him. They hooked up a few times, but McGinley was hesitant to have sex with her. "She said, 'If you don't want to fuck me, you're fucking gay,' " he remembers. "I was like Maybe. I don't know.
"That night, we ended up at this after-hours," he says, "And there was this really cute guy, Harry. She talked to him and we ended up back at hers. She said 'I'm going to kiss Harry and you're going to kiss me and then you're going to kiss Harry.' I was so nervous my mouth was bone dry and I started making out with him and that was it. This made sense! I never hooked up with a girl again."
At the School of Visual Arts, McGinley shifted from studying painting to poetry and then graphic design. All are apparent in his meticulously composed fantasist photographs. He finally picked up a camera and started documenting his social circle during a design course. It was a fortuitous time for this type of work—photo blogs had yet to emerge, and the all-digital era was still on the horizon.
McGinley has carved out a successful career beyond the art world without compromising his work in the slightest. His recent Levi's advertisements could work in a gallery show. And he's rendered everyone from Olympians to Oscar nominees in sumptuous abstracted portfolios for The New York Times Magazine. This year, he shot Lady Gaga for the cover of Rolling Stone, an image that revealed pathos and emotion, instead of a pop star in a wacky get-up.
"When I was shooting her," McGinley says, "she was doing things like giving the claws and doing poses. Her mom was there and I said, 'Mama Gaga, come here.' At that moment, the guard went down and you just saw a daughter talking to her mother. That's the cover image." The Gaga shoot gave him even more credibility with his nieces and nephews than when the characters on Gossip Girl debated where to hang their Ryan McGinley, the ultimate symbol of cool.

This appears to be available only on QVC. It is $35 for a 1.76 oz. glass bottle (plus $4.47 shipping) with a shaker top. I purchased this hoping it would be similar in quality to AmorePacific's Treatment Enzyme Peel, which is $60 for 2.5 oz. Not even close. I've already ordered my third bottle of the enzyme peel from Sephora. First, glass bottles in the bathroom never thrill me. This one is also just like a salt shaker, so there's almost no control over how much product comes out. Once you mix with water, the result is a gritty paste. It's not as harsh as some other exfoliants, but I definitely wouldn't characterize it as gentle.

Great product for those with sensitive skin! Very hard to find though-- it was exclusive to QVC and for some reason they do not sell it... Hoping it will return for the Spring/summer..... this stuff is amazing!! Very gentle and the packaging is gorgeous just like all Josie's products!!! Love the rose gold :)

Physical Commodity Identification and Development is Time and Capital Intensive
Commodity investing requires the recognition that commodities take a long time to bring to market and that commodities often move in different cycles than the business market. A good example of this capital- and time-intensive aspect is the construction of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) oil pipeline.
The BTC pipeline links a large Azerbaijan offshore oil field located in the Caspian Sea (the Azeri-Chirag-Guneshi oil field) to the Turkish port city of Ceyhan in the Mediterranean Sea. Talks about building a pipeline to deliver Azerbaijan's 32 billion barrels of oil to consumer markets started in 1996.
Many Western countries and energy companies supported the project because the pipeline would tap into a vast new source of oil (thereby lowering dependence on the volatile Persian Gulf region) and would pass through Azerbaijan, recently independent Georgia, and democratic Turkey (thereby bypassing the Russians and the Iranians).
The project faced immediate opposition because of strategic geopolitical maneuvering; in other words, the Russians weren't happy that a pipeline would be built in what they considered their backyard. Environmentalists also quickly expressed their discontent, fearing the pipeline would disturb precious environmental and ecological zones.
Talks among the various interested parties stretched from 1996 until 1999, when a mutually agreeable solution was reached and the project got the green light. Planning for the construction of the pipeline then began, but actual construction didn't start until late 2002. The pipeline construction finished in 2006, and oil started flowing from the Caspian Sea to the Mediterranean Sea on May 28, 2006.
In all, it took about ten years to create, design, and execute this project, which has cost $4 billion and employed thousands of workers.
The BTC pipeline is a good example of how long it can take to bring new sources of energy and other precious commodities to consumer markets. And that's not even counting the decades it took to prospect and explore the Caspian Sea to discover the oil in the first place!
The point is that the world is in serious need of oil and other raw materials to fuel global economic growth. However, the projects that are now being developed will need many years before they're able to deliver products. Make sure you consider these factors before you invest in commodities.
So what does this all mean to you as an investor? When you're investing in commodities, you have to think long term! If you're used to investing in tech stocks or if you're an entrepreneur involved in e-commerce, you need to radically change the way you think about investing when you approach commodities.
If you're able to recognize the long-term nature of commodities, you'll be on your way to becoming a successful commodities investor.
An individual with net worth of more than $1 million (alone or jointly with a spouse) or with income of $200,000 in each of the past two years and with a reasonable expectation of the same level of income in the current year. Certain higher-risk investments are often restricted to accredited investors.
A risk-adjusted measure of performance. Alpha measures the portion of an investment's return attributable to the security's inherent values (for example, earnings growth) rather than to overall market movements.
A trading technique that takes advantage of price discrepancies when the same security, currency, or commodity is traded on different markets.
A condition that is met when an option's strike price is the same as the prevailing price for the underlying stock. For example, if stock ABC is trading at $125 and the option's strike price is also $125, then the option is at the money.
A financial statement that shows the value of a company's assets, liabilities, and owner's equity on a given date. Total assets minus total liabilities equals owner's equity.
A situation that occurs when you have sold something you do not own. In commodities, if you enter into a contract to sell a commodity which you don't own with a promise to deliver it at a set price on a future date, then you are short that commodity. In stocks, you are short a stock if you have sold it and borrowed the shares from a broker to deliver to the purchaser, with an obligation to replace the borrowed shares at a future date. Being short means that you're bearish, or negative on the market, and that your goal is to make money when the security or commodity that you choose to short falls in price.
A measure of a stock's relative volatility. A stock with a higher beta can be expected to rise or fall more than the overall market, whereas a stock with a lower beta is less volatile than the overall market.
A theoretical model used to calculate the fair market value of an option based on time to expiration, price of the underlying stock, historical volatility, strike price, and carrying costs.
A contract that gives the holder the right to buy a particular asset at a specified price at any time prior to the expiration of the option.
A bond that the issuer can redeem before its maturity date. The bondholder is often paid a premium when the bond is called.
A chart that shows the daily high, low, opening, and closing prices for a security over a specified time period.
The profit from the sale of an investment at a price that's higher than the purchase price.
An interest-bearing investment issued by a bank. CDs are typically available with maturities ranging from three months to five years.
Buying and selling securities by a broker for the sole purpose of generating commissions.
A call option written by an investor who already owns the underlying shares. If you write a covered call and the option is exercised by the holder, then you would just deliver the stock to the holder.
Delta represents the price change of an option for every one-point change in the price of the underlying security or futures contract.
A financial instrument whose value is based on the value of another asset or index. A stock option, for example, is a type of derivative that gives you the right, but not the obligation, to buy shares of the stock at a predetermined price. The option's value changes in relation to the price of the stock.
An electronic order-routing system used by NYSE member firms to send market and limit orders directly to the specialist at the exchange who trades that particular security.
Money paid out by a company to the owner of its stock. An income stock is a stock that has a regularly paid, higher-than-average dividend.
A market in which stock shares are issued and traded. Trading takes place through both exchanges and over-the-counter markets.
A mutual fund that is traded, like stocks, on an exchange.
Currency that a government declares to be legal tender, even though it is not backed by reserves of physical assets (such as gold). The value of fiat money derives solely from the public's confidence and faith in its ability to serve as a storage medium for purchasing power. Most of the world's money is fiat money.
The largest non-governmental regulatory organization responsible for overseeing all securities firms that do business in the United States. Responsibilities include professional training, testing and licensing of registered representatives, and arbitration and mediation.
Speculation on the value of one currency versus another, in which you buy one country's currency—just as you'd buy a stock or other security—in the hope that it will appreciate relative to the value of another currency.
Contracts where you agree to buy or sell a specific amount of a commodity, currency, or other asset at a specified price on a specified future date. Unlike an option, a futures contract creates an obligation, rather than just a right, to buy and sell the underlying security.
When you own a security or other asset, you are said to be long that security. When you go long (that is, buy) a security, you're bullish, or positive on the market, and you expect the price of that security to go up.
Privately held corporations created by Congress to work for the common good—generally to facilitate borrowing for homeowners, farmers, and other specific groups. Examples of GSEs include Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the Federal Farm Credit Bank.
A chart formation in a graph of an asset price that resembles three mountaintops in a row, with the middle mountaintop being taller than the other two. The pattern indicates a trend reversal, meaning that prices are expected to fall.
An investment strategy that allows you to reduce the risk of an unfavorable price change in a security or commodity. For example, a stockholder of ABC Company who is worried about declining stock prices can offset that risk by buying a put option on ABC, allowing him to sell his shares in the future at today's price.
Investments that don't trade very actively and are difficult to sell on short notice.
A theoretical value representing the volatility of the security underlying an option. Implied volatility is used by the Black-Scholes model, among others, to calculate the price of an option. Implied volatility usually rises when the markets are in downtrends, and falls when the markets are in uptrends.
A condition that is met when a call option's strike price is below the prevailing price for the underlying stock. For example, if stock ABC is trading at $125 and the option's strike price is $120, then the option is in the money. For a put option, the strike price must be above the current market price of the stock for the option to be in the money.
A mutual fund designed to mirror the performance of a specific market index such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average or the S&P 500. Expenses of index funds tend to be lower than other mutual funds because the manager is not actively researching, buying, and selling securities.
A type of individual retirement savings plan. There are several types of IRAs, including, among others, Traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs. Traditional IRAs are tax-deferred accounts that currently allow individuals to contribute up to $5,000 per year. Contributions to a Traditional IRA may be tax deductible, depending upon several factors. You don't pay taxes on the income and gains you generate in a Traditional IRA until you make withdrawals; all withdrawals will be taxed at the ordinary income tax rate. Roth IRAs are subject to different tax treatment.
The degree to which an investor or business is utilizing borrowed money. For investors, leverage is a means of multiplying the return on an investment by borrowing money to purchase additional securities or other assets. Buying securities on margin is an example. If you have $1,000 of cash and borrow another $1,000 from your brokerage, you could then purchase $2,000 of stock. If the value of the purchased stock increases by 10 percent ($200), then you have realized a 20 percent gain ($200/$1,000) on your actual cash investment.
The value of a company as measured by the total number of stock shares outstanding times the market price of each share. For example, if company ABC has 20 million shares outstanding, and each share is currently worth $100, then the market cap for ABC is $2 billion. In general, stocks are classified as large cap (over $5 billion), small cap (under $1 billion), or mid cap (anything in between).
A stock index where the effect of each stock on the index is in proportion to its market value.
A major ongoing development that is expected to have significant implications for most (if not all) facets of society over an extended period of time. The aging of the American population is an example.
The perceived strength behind a price or volume movement in a security based on the rate of acceleration of that movement.
In technical analysis, a chart line that shows the average of a security's price over a specified period of time, recalculated for each new data point. For example, a 30-day moving average will include yesterday's price and those for the previous 29 days. Tomorrow's moving average will include today's price but will drop the price for the earliest date in yesterday's average. The moving average is used to spot pricing trends by flattening out large fluctuations.
A bond issued by a local or state government or agency. Munis generally raise money for public projects such as hospitals, roads, bridges, and sewer systems as well as general governmental operations. When you buy a muni, the interest is usually exempt from federal income tax.
A fund operated by an investment company that raises money from shareholders and invests that money in a group of assets in accordance with one or more stated objectives, such as income, growth, aggressive growth, and so on. A mutual fund may generally invest in stocks, bonds, options, futures, currencies, and money market securities in accordance with its stated parameters. All shareholders share equally in the income, gains, and losses generated by the fund.
A call option written by an investor who does not already own the underlying shares. If you write a naked call and the option is exercised by the holder, then you would have to buy the stock at the market price to meet your obligation. Naked calls are very risky, though potentially very rewarding.
An electronic stock exchange established by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD). The Nasdaq lists over 3,200 companies and is the largest equity securities trading market in the U.S.
A system where traders on a trading floor or in a trading pit shout and use hand signals to make transactions or trades with each other.
A derivative security that gives the holder a contractual right to buy or sell a set amount of a stock, commodity, or other asset at a specified price on or before the option's expiration date. An option is purchased for a fee, called a premium.
A person who is buying options. Call option holders have the right to buy a stipulated quantity of the underlying asset specified in the contract at a specified strike price. Put option holders have the right to sell the specified amount at the strike price.
A condition that is met when a call option's strike price is above the prevailing price for the underlying stock. For example, if stock ABC is trading at $120 and the option's strike price is $125, then the option is out of the money. For a put option, if the strike price is below the current market price of the stock, then the option is out of the money.
A securities market where trades are conducted by phone or computer network directly between dealers rather than on a physical trading floor. All bonds trade over-the-counter, as do unlisted stocks (generally, stocks of smaller companies that do not qualify for listing on an exchange).
A contract that gives the holder the right to sell a particular asset at a specified price at any time prior to the expiration of the option.
A company, usually traded publicly, that raises money from shareholders and invests that money in a portfolio of real estate properties. REITs are modeled after mutual funds, although the tax treatment of REIT income is different.
A statistical technique used to find the mathematical relationship between a dependent variable (such as a company's stock price) and one or more independent variables (such as GDP, income growth, or inflation). Regression analysis is used to predict future values of the dependent variable based on changes in the independent variables.
A price movement in the opposite direction of the previous trend. When a price has gone too far and traders deem the security overbought or oversold, the price may stop rising or falling and move in the opposite direction for a period of time.
A type of IRA in which contributions to the account are not tax-deductible, but qualified withdrawals are completely exempt from federal income tax.
A federal agency whose mission is to protect investors from fraud or other unlawful market activities.
A nonprofit corporation created by Congress in 1970 to protect investors in the United States. SIPC insures the assets in investor accounts (up to certain maximum amounts) at registered brokerage firms in the event of bankruptcy of those firms.
An instruction to a broker to sell a stock at the market price after the security has touched the specified stop price. A sell stop is always placed below the present market price and is usually designed to protect a profit or limit a loss.
The general feeling among investors as to which direction the stock market is heading. If the sentiment is that prices are going up, it is said to be bullish; if the sentiment is toward a downward movement, it is bearish. Investors base sentiment on market activity and movements in the prices of securities.
A situation that occurs when you have sold something you do not own. In commodities, if you enter into a contract to sell a commodity which you don't own with a promise to deliver it at a set price on a future date, then you are short that commodity. In stocks, you are short a stock if you have sold it and borrowed the shares from a broker to deliver to the purchaser, with an obligation to replace the borrowed shares at a future date. Being short means that you're bearish, or negative on the market, and that your goal is to make money when the price of the security or commodity that you choose to short falls in price.
A retirement plan available to small employers and self-employed individuals in which both the employer and employee can contribute to an IRA.
An annuity contract that you purchase from an insurance company with a single upfront payment. An SPIA usually starts making regular monthly payments to you immediately.
You create a straddle when you simultaneously buy a put and a call on the same stock at the same strike price and with the same expiration date.
You build a strangle when you buy a put and a call on the same stock with the same expiration date but at strike prices that are equally out of the money. A strangle costs less than a straddle because both options are out of the money, but you only make a profit if the price of the underlying stock moves dramatically.
The price at which the stock or commodity underlying an option can be purchased (call option) or sold (put option) pursuant to the terms of the contract.
An exchange of streams of payments over time according to specified terms. The most common type is an interest rate swap, in which one party agrees to pay a fixed interest rate on a notional principal amount in return for receiving an adjustable rate from another party.
One-sixteenth of a point.
A price change in a security's trades. If the next trade takes a security up in price, it's an uptick; if it takes the security down, it's a downtick. In futures and options trading, a tick is the minimum change in price, up or down.
The spread between the high and low prices of a security or commodity within a particular period.
Debt obligations of the U.S. government that are secured by its full faith and credit. Treasuries include bills (maturities of less than one year), notes (maturities of 1 to 10 years), and bonds (maturities of more than 10 years).
A statistical measure of the movement of a financial asset's price over time, gauging how fast the price of the asset changes. The price of a highly volatile security can change dramatically over a short period of time. A measure of the volatility of a security relative to the overall market is its beta.
A person who is selling options. Call option writers have the obligation to sell a stipulated quantity of the underlying asset specified in the contract at the specified strike price if the option is exercised by the holder. Put option writers have the obligation to buy the specified amount at the strike price if the option is exercised.

The Arizona Public Records Law is a series of laws designed to guarantee that the public has access to public records of government bodies at all levels in Arizona. The law was first enacted in 1901.
Arizona Revised Statutes 39.101 - 39.221 define the law.
The Arizona Open Meetings Act legislates the methods by which public meetings are conducted. Statute 38 38.431.01 defines the law.
To learn more about how to make a public records request in this state, please see Arizona FOIA procedures
Relevant legal cases
Here is a list of lawsuits in Arizona (the cases are listed alphabetically; to order them by year, please click the icon to the right of the "year" heading).

Proposed transparency legislation
We do not currently have any legislation for Arizona in 2011.
We have no current bill pages for Arizona from 2010. This may be due to incomplete research.
Transparency report card
A 2008 study, BGA - Alper Integrity Index, conducted by the Better Government Association and sponsored by Alper Services, ranked Arizona #11 in the nation (along with Illinois and West Virginia), with an overall percentage of 58.00%.[1]
A 2007 study, Graded state responsiveness to FOI requests, conducted by BGA and the NFOIC, gave Arizona 22 points out of a possible 100, a letter grade of "F" and a ranking of 44 out of the 50 states.[2]
A 2002 study, Freedom of Information in the USA, conducted by IRE and BGA, ranked Arizona's law as the 46th worst in the country, giving it a letter grade of "F."[3]
Features of the law
- Compare States: Sunshine variations
- Click on the heading to compare your state's law to other state's transparency laws.
Declared legal intention
While the law does not explicitly state an intention, it does state, "Public records and other matters in the custody of any officer shall be open to inspection by any person at all times during office hours."[4]
What records are covered?
- See also: Defining public records
Public records are defined by statute 41-1350 as "all books, papers, maps, photographs or other documentary materials, regardless of physical form or characteristics, including prints or copies of such items produced or reproduced on film or electronic media pursuant to section 41-1348, made or received by any governmental agency in pursuance of law or in connection with the transaction of public business."[5]
Exemptions to the definition of record include the home addresses and telephone numbers of individuals, as well as information concerning archaeological discoveries or places of historic interest if the department feels that it will increase the potential for vandalism.[6][7] Records indicating risk assessment to infrastructure which could decrease security are also protected.[8]
Electronic records
Lake v. City of Phoenix recently established that digital meta-data attached to files stored in any electronic form are considered part of that document and are thus subject to open records requests.
Deliberative process
Arizona law does not current;y permit an exemption for materials which fall under the deliberative process.
What agencies are covered?
- See also: Defining public body
The Arizona statutes define "public bodies" subject to public records laws as "the state, any county, city, town, school district, political subdivision or tax-supported district in the state, any branch, department, board, bureau, commission, council or committee of the foregoing, and any public organization or agency, supported in whole or in part by monies from the state or any political subdivision of the state, or expending monies provided by the state or any political subdivision of the state."[9]
- See also: Legislatures and transparency
The Arizona Public Records Law is ambiguous as to whether the law applies to the legislature. However the broad definition of public body found at Arizona Statute 39-121.01-A-2 would presumably include state legislators.[10]
Privatized governmental agencies
In Arizona, private entities which receive public funding are subject to the state's open records and open meetings laws.
Public universities
- See also: Universities and open records
The definition of public body presumably includes public universities within the state. However, state laws on education provide explicit exemptions for Intellectual property as a trade secret if it is included in unfunded grant applications, proprietary data collected by third parties and proprietary data collected by university faculty and employees. The act also includes exemptions for historical information and materials donated to the university and monetary donor information if the donor requests anonymity.[11] There are also exemptions for unprofessional conduct investigations of teachers.[12]
Who may request records?
Arizona Statute 39-121 states that anyone may request records at any time during office hours.[13]
Must a purpose be stated?
- See also: States requiring a statement of purpose
Arizona law requires individuals who are making a FOIA request for commercial purposes to state those purposes. Further, if the department from which the records are requested feels that the purpose is a misuse of public records, they may submit a request to the governor to prevent the release of the records. Failure to claim a commercial purpose can result in litigation and heavy penalization.[14]
How can records be used?
- See also: Record use restrictions
Arizona has no restrictions on the use of records outside of statute 39-121, which implies the potential for misuse of public records for commercial purposes.
Time allowed for response
- See also: Request response times by state
Arizona state law does not specify the amount of time allotted for filling a public records request.
Fees for records
Copy costs
- See also: How much do public records cost?
Arizona statute allows for the charging of reasonable fees for publication, mailing and search expenses. Exceptions to fees include records that are meant to be used in a claim against the federal government concerning "pension, allotment, allowance, compensation, insurance or other benefits"[15]. Also, victims of criminal offenses or family members of incapacitated or deceased victims can request one copy of the police record for free.[16]
Search fees
- See also: Sunshine laws and search fees
The Arizona law allows agencies to charge reasonable fees to cover search expenses, but does not elaborate on what those fees may be.[15]
Role of the Attorney General
- See also: Role of the Attorney General
There is currently no provision within the state open records law that empowers the State Department of Law to enforce the right of the public to access governmental records.
Open meetings
The Open Meetings Act states, "All meetings of any public body shall be public meetings and all persons so desiring shall be permitted to attend and listen to the deliberations and proceedings. All legal action of public bodies shall occur during a public meeting."[17]

Score from 42 reviews Excellent
The staff was consistently helpful and courteous and went the extra mile for guests.
I walked to a nearby restaurant. Instead of a sidewalk there was only a narrow trail frighteningly close to the Highway 71 traffic.
Very convenient if you need to catch an early flight. It is just 5 min from the airport and the shuttle runs every 30 min.
Room size, comfort and cleanliness (I check)...great cable / dish line-up many places skimp.
Recommending that hotel expands the vending area / options.
There was a cup of old coffee in the microwave. The bathroom was not clean (tub/shower area). It makes one wonder what other areas of the room are let go for who know how long. I'm not staying there in the future. I travel out of Austin airport at least 3 times a year and always spend the night before my flight at one of the hotels nearby.
It was wonderful that I was allowed to leave my car there during my trip. Their transport to the airport was right on time.
My experience was pleasant. Hotel was quiet, clean, comfortable and reasonably priced. The desk clerk was very pleasant, professional and helpful. Breakfast was good and as a diabetic I found items I could have, which isn't always the case. The woman who drove me to the airport was very friendly and pleasant. She was very efficient considering she was doing breakfast as well.
Friendly, helpful staff
Surge pricing 2.5 times the normal rate during Formula One weekend
Free shuttle to airport
The shower is very old
free parking breakfast easy highway access easy drive into city across road from airport
no restaurants nearby
I found myself in Austin for the night and needed a convenient place to crash. This was located very close to downtown Austin. Clean hotel and very well priced for short notice.
No real gripes. I only stayed one night.
Good clean rooms and very close to the airport
No restaurant
Staff there was very friendly and helpful.
Hotel is beginning to show signs of age...(just like me!).
they charged me the wrong amount still havent seen the change
Friendly staff. Location to airport.
The hotel was not what the website describes. Price too high for the overall service.
Convenient for an early departure
A little noisy.
Not much.
Bugs and overall cleanliness and remodeling going on around the complex, tattered towels, stained furniture, just not good.
the shuttle to and from the airport and the breakfast.
black mold growing in the shower. the wall behind the tv looked like someone had thrown a soda at it and was never cleaned. blood spots on the bedding. and the shower didn't drain so our feet were in a bath while taking a shower. and the walls were thin we could hear our party animal neighbors every night until 3 a.m. the hotel was booked up so we couldn't change rooms.
Very comfortable beds.
Poor lighting into hotel. Very on on elevator and hallway to room. Continental breakfast was bad....
It was the only hotel I could find in short notice that allowed pets. It gave us a place to stay while there staff was nice enough.
The shower and sink were broken. I bathe my 3 month old daughter in the sink and the stopper to fill up the sink was coming completely out the sink, they came in to fix it, but it was never fixed. It was so hot, ac in room not cooling room and they must have not even turned it on in breakfast room. It was dated hotel, I would have stayed somewhere nicer but I couldn't find on short notice bc of ACL.
The person at the front desk was extremely helpful , friendly and nice. He made me felt right at home...
The air conditioner stopped too long at night... was getting stuffy , when it stopped.
Awesome customer service
The breakfast was actually pretty good. Our bed was comfortable and our room got nice and cool so we slept very well. The staff was nice and willing to help with anything we needed.
The location wasn't ideal. The area isn't the cleanest or most appealing area. There were no vanity mirrors.
Clean. Nice facility.
Convenience to the airport
Area the hotel is in can be a little surprising BUT it is the closest to the airport that we found.
Staff were friendly
Hot Breakfast consisted of tepid scrambled egg and cold boiled egg.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

I'm sorry for your loss. Welcome to the board. I've started charting, but not sure if I'll keep it up. It's not that much work, but it does make me a little obsessive, which I don't think is really a good thing.
I am so sorry for your loss!!!
I am almost a month out from my D&C, and am waiting on AF!
To prepare, DH and I have started a light-moderate work-out routine to just feel better and be in shape, I am trying to eat better (although this, unfortunately, is not easy for me... I'm such a snacker), we use pre-seed, I chart, take my pre-natals, as well as a fertility blend supplement for hormonal health.
GL!!! And welcome to the board. Hope you find what you need here!
Welcome to the board. I'm so sorry you have to be here.
Thanks everyone! I am trying to stick with the no caffiene thing and get back into exercising hoping to get into better shape for when we are ready to try again. I appreciate the support and kind words. The wounds are healing slowly and I am just praying that the next time turns into a healthy pregnancy. Good luck everyone too!!

Ectopic ACTH-secreting neuroendocrine tumor.
Summary of "Ectopic ACTH-secreting neuroendocrine tumor."
The authors report a case of an ectopic ACTH-syndrome that resulted in severe hypercortisolism, hypokalemia, diabetes mellitus and osteoporosis. The ACTH-secreting tumor tissue was localized in the lung. The tumor was removed by segmentectomy and histological evaluation revealed an ACTH-secreting neuroendocrine tumor. After surgery, however, plasma cortisol and ACTH levels failed to decrease significantly due to subtotal tumor removal. Long-acting somatostatin analogue therapy resulted in a normalization of both plasma cortisol and ACTH levels and the clinical symptoms improved significantly. Residual tumor was removed by repeat surgery and the patient was permanently cured. Orv. Hetil., 2011, 152, 403-406.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Neuroendocrine Tumors
Tumors whose cells possess secretory granules and originate from the neuroectoderm, i.e., the cells of the ectoblast or epiblast that program the neuroendocrine system. Common properties across most neuroendocrine tumors include ectopic hormone production (often via APUD CELLS), the presence of tumor-associated antigens, and isozyme composition.
A GASTRIN-secreting neuroendocrine tumor of the non-beta ISLET CELLS, the GASTRIN-SECRETING CELLS. This type of tumor is primarily located in the PANCREAS or the DUODENUM. Majority of gastrinomas are malignant. They metastasize to the LIVER; LYMPH NODES; and BONE but rarely elsewhere. The presence of gastrinoma is one of three requirements to be met for identification of ZOLLINGER-ELLISON SYNDROME, which sometimes occurs in families with MULTIPLE ENDOCRINE NEOPLASIA TYPE 1; (MEN 1).
Acth Syndrome, Ectopic
Symptom complex due to ACTH production by non-pituitary neoplasms.
Nelson Syndrome
A syndrome characterized by HYPERPIGMENTATION, enlarging pituitary mass, visual defects secondary to compression of the OPTIC CHIASM, and elevated serum ACTH. It is caused by the expansion of an underlying ACTH-SECRETING PITUITARY ADENOMA that grows in the absence of feedback inhibition by adrenal CORTICOSTEROIDS, usually after ADRENALECTOMY.
Carcinoma, Neuroendocrine
A group of carcinomas which share a characteristic morphology, often being composed of clusters and trabecular sheets of round "blue cells", granular chromatin, and an attenuated rim of poorly demarcated cytoplasm. Neuroendocrine tumors include carcinoids, small ("oat") cell carcinomas, medullary carcinoma of the thyroid, Merkel cell tumor, cutaneous neuroendocrine carcinoma, pancreatic islet cell tumors, and pheochromocytoma. Neurosecretory granules are found within the tumor cells. (Segen, Dictionary of Modern Medicine, 1992)

I imagine that natural theology is near the top of the list of theological issues that are most fervently argued about and simultaneously most misunderstood. At least since Barth and Brunner's head-on collision over the matter it has been the subject of voracious conflict with both sides claiming that the other doesn't really understand the issues.
So, here's the question: What, in a couple sentences do you understand natural theology to be? Sub-question: Is natural theology licit, that is, does it impart knowledge of God?

The LL.M. with a concentration in International Commercial Arbitration is a 28 unit program offered to those who possess a law degree. The program schedule for Fall 2014/Spring 2015 academic year is:
Negotiation Theory and Practice – taught by Jasper Kim
*Note: Introduction to US Law would be waived for any student who has completed or is completing more than ten units of US substantive law courses, which is often required to sit for a bar exam in the US. Thus international students sitting for the California Bar exam would complete 16 units of required courses listed above and 12 units of substantive law courses as required by the California Bar.
International Commercial Arbitration Theory and Doctrine
This course is a study of foundational principles, assumptions and debates associated with international commercial arbitration. On a comparative basis, the course examines sources of law and guidance including national legislation, treaties, institutional rules and soft law texts. The course will also explore common precepts of international importance such as party autonomy, the efficacy of international arbitral agreements and awards, the role of the arbitral seat, the severability of the arbitration clause, jurisdictional competence of the arbitral tribunal, and the independence and impartiality of arbitrators.
International Commercial Arbitration Practice and Procedure
This course studies prevailing procedural models common to international commercial arbitration in light of common law and civil law traditions, the role of institutions, party autonomy and emerging best practices. Students consider both pre-dispute planning and post-dispute strategies for ensuring effective proceedings that will lead to enforceable awards. The course stresses the critically important interplay among counsel, the arbitrators, arbitral institutions and the courts. Students also are introduced to the rudiments of successful advocacy. This class will feature a special capstone guest lecturer on November 2.
Ethical Considerations in International Commercial Arbitration
This course explores the ethical considerations affecting the work of arbitrators, counsel and experts in international arbitration. Issues will include the arbitrator obligations of independence and impartiality, conflicts of law problems facing counsel in transnational arbitration, practice restrictions governing the work of arbitrators and counsel in international arbitration and texts bearing on the unification of ethical standards. This class will feature a special capstone guest lecturer on November 16.
Introduction to US Law
A study of distinctive features of the United States legal system designed for graduates of non-U.S. law schools. The course examines U.S. constitutional structure, doctrines delineating the respective roles of the state and federal systems, prominent legal institutions, sources of law and the common law method. Distinctive elements of American legal practice will also be considered.
Capstone Mock Arbitration
In the context of one of the several organized international arbitration competitions, such as the VIS Arbitration Moot, students will be required to prepare both oral and written submissions and to perform as counsel, (and as arbitrators and experts in practice rounds) at a hearing on the merits or similar event occurring in a complex international arbitration. Case studies and briefing deadlines will be supplied by the competition organizers.
Negotiation Theory and Practice
This course examines the theory and practice of negotiation as a process used to put deals together or to resolve disputes and legal claims. Students learn about competitive positional bargaining and collaborative problem solving and acquire insight into the strategic management of the tension between the two approaches. Through simulated exercises, students develop skills and confidence as negotiators, including an awareness of the psychological encouragements and barriers to consensus. Special challenges of multiparty negotiations are addressed with an emphasis on the attorney-client relationship, including applicable ethical standards, codes, and law.
International Commercial Arbitration and the National Courts
This course studies the complementary and sometimes antagonistic role of national courts in the international arbitration process in light of treaty mandates, internationally recognized jurisdictional limits, arbitral legislation and case law doctrine. A principal focus is on comparing court decisions in the United States with decisions from various other jurisdictions. This class will feature a special capstone guest lecturer on January 18.
International Investment Disputes
This course addresses the treaty-based systems established to allow foreign direct investors and host states to arbitrate disputes arising from alleged breaches of international law. In addition to examining the major treaties affecting the field, the course will survey the many important doctrines bearing on tribunal jurisdictions, claim admissibility, and the enforcement of awards against a state. Matters of process design will also be considered. This class will feature a special capstone guest lecturer on March 1.
Mediation Theory and Practice
This course explores the various theories underlying and practices basic to mediation. The mediation process is organized into a series of stages, and basic mediation skills and techniques appropriate to each stage are identified and cultivated. Simulations and experiential exercises provide students with an opportunity to develop proficiency as mediators and to rigorously analyze appropriate roles and behavior as mediators and advocates taking into account the legal, ethical and public policy issues surrounding the practice of mediation.

Hi there,
I'm new in here but hopefully have hit the correct forum, please apologogize if not.
My simple question is: I once created a Sound with the wonderful KX SYNTH X-16 but stored it as a bank - not knowing it better perhaps...
Now I would love to reload th sound but the programm tells me something like "not compatible". Does anyone know what to do to re-get the sound? I would like to attach it but cannot, since the forum complains about extensions.
Thanks! Philipp

Have you updated the synth since making your patchbank? It might have been changed so much that you can't load old banks. You might get more info in the instruments forum here, search for a KX synth thread, ask, and he usually comes by.
