Made in the U.S.A. by York Wallcoverings.
Traditional silverware dressed in the latest decor styling adds panache and designer sophistication to this fanciful pattern.

Use this wallpaper on an accent wall or with its Bistro 750 Collection coordinate, Damask Border.
Material(s): Paper, non-woven substrate, or fabric backed vinyl products made from 100% natural fibers, water based smoke-free ink, and eco-friendly materials dependent on the style selected.

the stated maltdextrin and natural flavor are hidden labels for MSG. This product is not as healthy as it seems. I used to buy them but stopped after I researched on it. It is clever packaging and labelling. Sad but true.

I live in Southern California and used to be able to purchase Better Than Boullion products at my local Ralph's (Kroger) store. They stopped carrying the product and the fact that I order it online rather than settle for what Ralph's now has to offer is all that needs to be said about my satisfaction with the product. I would, however, like to see Chile added to the product offering. It used to be available and it was great.

UPDATE: China Construction Bank Eyes Fund-Raising This Year
(Adds quotes from the bank's executives about fund-raising and rural banking venture with Spain's Banco Santander.)
By Terence Poon, Aries Poon and Rose Yu Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
BEIJING -(Dow Jones)- China Construction Bank Corp. (0939.HK), the country's second-largest lender by assets, said Monday it plans to raise funds on Shanghai and Hong Kong's securities markets this year, as part of efforts to keep its capital adequacy ratio above 11.5% in the coming five years.
Analysts said 2010 could be the biggest year for fund raising in China since the country's largest banks launched initial public offerings four years ago, as a massive lending binge--the key platform of China's stimulus spending last year--reduced their capital buffers.
"Through a period of preparation, we hope the bank can implement an overall refinancing plan in Shanghai and Hong Kong this year," China Construction Bank President Zhang Jianguo told reporters at a press conference after the lender's 2009 results.
"But we are still in the process of tweaking the proposal. That's why the recent board meeting didn't formally review and vote on it," he added.
On Friday, when the bank's board of directors met to discuss its 2009 results, a person familiar with the matter told Dow Jones Newswires that China Construction Bank was considering a plan to place more than CNY40 billion worth of yuan-denominated shares in Shanghai and may also consider a rights issue in Hong Kong.
The person said at that time there were still different views within the bank regarding how to shore up capital. Central Huijin Investment Ltd., the domestic investment arm of China's sovereign wealth fund, may inject more capital into the lender so that its holding isn't diluted, the person added.
Pang Xiusheng, a vice president of China Construction Bank, said at the same press conference Monday that the company is still drafting the details of the fund-raising proposal based on its business growth projection and a plan to keep the capital adequacy ratio at 11.5% or above in the coming five years.
He added that Central Huijin, the largest shareholder of China Construction Bank with a 57% stake, will back up any fund-raising plan by the lender.
China Construction Bank's capital adequacy ratio, which measures the amount of money banks hold against their assets, stood at 11.7% as of Dec. 31, down from 12.16% at the end of 2008 but above the required minimum of 11% for big lenders in China.
Beijing raised the ratio by one percentage point to the current level in the second half of 2009 to rein in exuberant credit growth amid concerns about the resurgence of bad assets. Analysts have said more hikes in the capital-adequacy ratio are likely in the coming months.
On Thursday, Industrial & Commercial Bank of China Ltd., the nation's largest lender by assets and the best-capitalized, disclosed a massive fund-raising plan. The bank, whose capital-adequacy ratio stood at 12.36% at the end of 2009, said it intends to raise as much as CNY25 billion via a convertible-bond issue in Shanghai, and also plans to seek shareholders' approval to sell additional shares in Hong Kong.
Prior to ICBC's fund-raising plan, Bank of China Ltd. said it will sell up to CNY40 billion worth of convertible bonds on the domestic market and aims to raise an additional $7.9 billion in a follow-on stock sale in Hong Kong. Bank of Communications Co., a smaller state-run lender, said it would raise as much as CNY42 billion via a rights issue.
Analysts said the fund-raising plans by ICBC and China Construction Bank, are more likely to be a pre-emptive move to build up ammunition for future business expansion, because their capital-adequacy ratios meet the regulator's requirement and are at relatively high levels.
"It has been a trend for banks in China to raise funds, regardless of their actual capital bases," said Wang Qian, an analyst at China Merchants Securities. "It seems these banks would feel regretful if they missed the boom this year," she said.
Also at Monday's press conference, China Construction Bank's president said the state-run lender is planning to set up a rural banking joint venture with Spain's Banco Santander SA (STD) in China with 100 outlets, capitalizing on Beijing's effort to raise living standards in the country's urban areas.
China Daily reported in January that China Construction Bank would control 60% of the planned venture, and Santander the rest. Spain bank confirmed in February it was in talks with the Chinese bank, but didn't give any details.

where to get the PRO/Wireless 2200BG support package?
I can not find the wireless connection interface on my portable personal computer.
1.It's OS is ubuntu. the kernel is what I compiled using linux-22.214.171.124.tar.bz package from kernel.org according to "How To Compile A Kernel - The Ubuntu Way" by falko .
2.I compiled the kernel with CONFIG_NET_RADIO set to y.
3.my wireless product is PRO/Wireless 2200BG by Inter Corp.
Why?Is the wireless support package available in the kernel but I didn't configure it correctly in the menuconfig? or there is not the support package in the kernel source at all? or something else?If the support package is not available in the kernel source,where to get it.I want the source package.
Any information is appreciated

I have to share a secret. This is my very favorite meal in the whole world. (And I'm excited because I only make it two or three times a year…after all it is butter chicken!) I'll admit this recipe may look intimidating at first glance because of the long ingredient list and drawn out instructions. But take a deeper look…a lot of the ingredients are probably things you already have in your fridge or pantry, and not including marinating the chicken overnight, this dish only takes about two hours to prepare. Think about it this way: you're only two hours away from heaven. And on a Sunday afternoon, what could be better than the smell of curry filling the house?
I invite you all to try my favorite dish and let me know how you like it. By the way, I'd love to hear what your favorite meal is!
Serving Suggestions: I served this with basmati rice and onion chutney. Later this week I'll be posting the onion chutney recipe.
A Note on the Spice Mix: If you can't find these spices or don't want to make your own mix, you could try substituting curry powder or paste.
Indian Butter Chicken (Murg Makhani)
(Yield: 6-8 servings)
Spice Mix (you'll use this whole mix between the chicken and the gravy):
4 tsp garam masala (see here for the spices in garam masala)
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp curry
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt
½ tsp coriander
½ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp turmeric
½ teaspoon fenugreek
½ c plain low fat yogurt
2 TB lemon juice
3 cloves garlic, grated
5 tsp Spice Mix
1 ½ pound boneless, skinless chicken breast or thighs, cut into bite-size pieces
2 TB olive oil
2 medium-large onions, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced (optional)
4 cloves garlic, grated
1 TB fresh grated ginger
5 tsp Spice Mix
2 tsp lemon juice
2 tsp hot sauce
2 large tomatoes, chopped
4 oz tomato paste
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1 bay leaf
½ c golden raisins
1 TB sugar
¾ cup heavy cream
4 TB butter
¼ c plus 1 TB minced fresh parsley (divided)
Combine all ingredients for the Spice Mix. Combine all ingredients for the chicken and allow it to marinade in the refrigerator overnight.
In a large pan with a lid, heat the olive oil over medium heat; add the onion and jalapeno and sauté for 5-10 minutes with the lid on, stirring occasionally (until slightly softened). Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for another 30 seconds to a minute, then add the Spice Mix and lemon juice and sauté for another 30 seconds. Add the hot sauce and tomatoes and sauté for another 5 minutes; add the tomato paste, 4 c of water, and bouillon cubes; cover the pan and let the gravy simmer gently for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Allow the gravy to cool slightly.
Transfer the gravy to a blender and blend until it's completely smooth (I do this in two or three batches); then return the gravy to the pan along with the bay leaf and raisins. Let the gravy simmer for an hour, then stir in the sugar and heavy cream. Add the butter and let it melt in, then shut off the heat.
While the gravy is simmering for an hour, you can cook the chicken. The chicken can be skewered and grilled, cooked in a broiler, or cooked in a very hot oven.
Add ¼ c of parsley and the cooked chicken to the gravy. Taste and season with salt, pepper, and sugar as desired. Serve the gravy garnished with the remaining 1 TB of parsley, alongside basmati rice and onion chutney.

Why did Department of Transport take such risks on the West Coast Rail procurement?
Categories: Procurement Commentary | Tags: Humour, politics and procurement, public procurement, Public Sector
(When we last wrote about the West Coast Rail fiasco and the interim report from Sam Laidlaw, we got an excellent and perceptive comment from "Clark Kent". Here's a taste of it.
"… whilst the risk of success of a legal challenge is frequently well understood, the risk of that challenge materialising is more difficult to assess and is frequently taken less seriously by accountable officers. .. Unfortunately in the public sector, where the glare of publicity is that much more intense, the impact of the reputational risk of saying "stop" is often perceived as greater than chancing it on a risk of challenge that might not materialize…the culture, and the public/political/press response, does not and has never supported a climate which allows the admission of errors during the lifecycle… stopping means "delay" and "delay" is as bad as failing to deliver, but more immediate. Publicly stated deadlines are everything.
That inspired our latest Sir Humphrey story…)
Risk versus ignominy…
– Minister , good morning. I am sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings but I must have a serious discussion with you. You know our current competition for awarding franchises under the PSTL scheme?
Of course I do Humphrey, it's right at the top of my priority list!
– Well, I'm afraid I have just had a somewhat disturbing conversation with my Procurement Director. She tells me that there is a problem with the tender evaluation model that we have previously used, and postulated in our OJEU advertisement, and, on investigation, it may contain certain hypothetical variations from a standardised and fully statistically legitimate analysis giving due consideration of contingent factors and equitable comparators in terms of the full financial metrics which we require our bidders to submit.
– Our procurement process doesn't work Minister. It is fundamentally broken.
Well sort it out at once, Humphrey!
– It is not as simple as that Minister. I am assured that it will take some time – probably 3 months, we estimate, to build, verify and communicate the new evaluation model to suppliers .And of course with the Cabinet Office restrictions on use of consultants we have to do all of that considerable work ourselves..
But we will have to announce that to everyone! We'll be delaying our key programme! We'll look incompetent !
– Again. Minister. We'll look incompetent again. But there is an alternative, Minister.
– We could put in place a – well, it is by no means a foolproof solution, more of a sticking plaster really, but it might be enough to convince our bidders that we know what we're doing, and allow us to proceed. However, I have to warn you Minister, that if a potential supplier were to challenge our process later on, perhaps when we award the contract, the probability is that we would lose the case.
And do you think they will challenge?
– I couldn't possibly say, Minister. Who are we to know the minds of our esteemed suppliers. Many of them are Americans!
Humphrey, this is most unsatisfactory. Between us, you know there is an imminent Cabinet re-shuffle? And you know I'm being tipped for promotion – maybe Transport, maybe even MOD!
– Minister, you have my sympathies. In fact, my name has also been mentioned recently in terms of preferment.
Cabinet Secretary, Humphrey?
– Oh no, Minister, not yet. But perhaps DWP or HMRC..
So let's get this straight. We can own up now, and look like idiots.
– Yes Minister.
Or we can carry on, take the risk, hope for the best, and we might be challenged – when?
– In around 6 months time, Minister. After the re-shuffle. And after my potential move…
In that case… I think we should carry on.
– A wise decision Minister.
You think so Humphrey?
– Oh yes Minister…!

Oh dear Peter! LOL

What about the Barnet Council mega outsource and Cornwall Council standing on the edge of a similar all-or-nothing cliff?
Once these big outsourcing "transformation" projects are kicked off (usually built around a pre-decided "preferred option") with great fanfare & aspiration, they have so much time, money and "face" invested in them, that they become unstoppable juggernauts.
Barnet are simply ploughing on even though all other joint ventures before them have failed or significantly under-performed.
So how will Barnet succeed where Bedfordshire, Suffolk, Liverpool, Somerset and Southampton have all failed before them? Statistically highly unlikely then.
How do we make a "No Go" contract let decision "cool" or even simply an acceptable part of "normal" when projects are well into their life cycle?

Drill, Spill, Repeat?
Four years ago, at approximately 9:56 PM on April 20, 2010, a massive fire and explosion onboard theDeepwater Horizon offshore drilling rig began an 87-day response nightmare that would become the worst environmental catastrophe in our nation's history. The explosion killed 11 crew members, injuring many others, and caused oil to gush freely into the Gulf of Mexico from a damaged wellhead near the ocean floor.
Continue reading...
What If an Oil Spill Happened Near You?
It's been one year since the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded, but the explosion and subsequent months-long spill has largely faded from public consciousness. And if people do think about the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, they think about it happening "somewhere else," to "someone else's" community, and not really affecting their daily lives.
To mark the one-year anniversary since the worst environmental disaster in our nation's history, Oceana is asking the question: "What If It Happened Here?" What if the Deepwater Horizon rig explosion and spill happened at a well-known and easily recognizable place in America? Would we still be chanting, "Drill, baby, drill?"
To try to personalize this message for people we created an ad campaign on display now in the Washington, D.C. Metro system that depicts the Deepwater Horizon rig explosion happening at the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C., the New York Harbor, and the San Francisco Bay.
We hope that by asking the question, "What If It Happened Here?" we will get people to think about how they would be affected, and how their communities would be affected, if the BP oil spill happened off their coasts. We hope these ads will help people realize that we need to stop the drill.
Actress Sarah Shahi Wants to 'Stop the Drill'
Actress Sarah Shahi is a rising star in Hollywood, and she also happens to be one of Oceana's newest and most fervent celebrity supporters.
You might recognize Shahi from the Showtime series "The L Word," where she played Carmen, a bilingual production assistant who moonlights as a DJ. She has also appeared in the films "Old School," "For Your Consideration," and on the TV shows "The Sopranos," "Dawson's Creek," "Frasier" and "Alias."
But when she's not acting, she also plays the part of activist. This summer, she learned about our Stop the Drill campaign surrounding the Gulf oil spill and it struck a chord with her. On her Facebook and Twitter pages, she encouraged her supporters to take action with Oceana to stop offshore drilling. She changed her profile photo to a picture of herself holding a sign that read "Stop the Drill," and she encouraged her supporters and friends to do the same.

New Poll: 88% of Americans Want Science Before Drilling
Just in time for Secretary Salazar's visit to the U.S. Arctic, today our colleagues in Alaska released the results of a new nationwide poll on offshore drilling. The poll, conducted by David Binder Research, shows that Americans overwhelmingly support a precautionary approach to offshore drilling.
According to the poll, 88 percent of the American public thinks it is important for there to be a science-based approach to decision-making and for response capabilities to be in place before any drilling occurs, even if it slows the timeframe for oil drilling.

The World Joins Hands Against Offshore Drilling
Across time zones and oceans, a single wave in solidarity against offshore drilling spread around the globe this past Saturday.

Campaigners On The Ground in the Gulf
Just received this dispatch from Dave Allison, one of our senior campaign directors, who is on the ground in the Gulf.
"Approaching the airport, small fleet of fishing boats is dropping booms to contain the slick of oil churning just outside the port. As we land, Airforce One sits waiting while the president begins a day of demands and negotiation to force BP to make good on their promise to make amends for the environmental and economic devastation that Oceana warned against years ago in the report Toxic Legacy."

These wheels are sick! But seriously, they came to us from dash on Monday and I shipped them out the same day. I managed to snap some pictures before they went out. They weighed in at 804g and when the stickers on the rear wheel are removed they will weigh sub 800 (probably). The rims are AX-Lightness SRT24. Sapim CX-Ray spokes (custom cut by dash to save weight) and the new Dash Maria/Veronica hubs.
Weston at Dash told me these were the first hubs they had done with a campy cassette. They campy hub weighs about 4 grams more than the Shimano because Dash didn't have a skyline version of the campy cassette body.

PKP Bugzilla – Bug 7688
Article submission system crashes when a blank line is included (using the enter key)
Last modified: 2013-05-29 15:18:41 PDT
When entering a new article submission into the OJS (under step 3 ('Enter Metadata')), the system crashes when a blank line is included (using the enter key).
If the enter key is used to insert a blank line between paragraphs or just to insert a blank line at the end of the abstract, when the author clicks 'save and continue' instead of moving on to step 4, the author is directed to the following (nonexistent) URL: http://environmentalhumanities.org/submissions/eh/author/saveSubmit/3
If the same abstract is entered without any blank lines the system works fine and the author moves on to the following URL: http://environmentalhumanities.org/submissions/index.php/eh/author/submit/4?articleId=4
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thom, I think the blank line is a red herring. In any case, I'm having trouble duplicating this locally; could you privately email me with a login I can use to test your system by submitting as an author?
Closing for lack of feedback/replication to date.

Private jets starting to take off again
Private jets, largely grounded by the recession, are taking off once again — a sign that businesses may be feeling more confident despite the still shaky economy.
JSSI, a company that arranges maintenance for hundreds of corporate aircraft, saw an 11.4% increase in flight hours in the first three months of this year vs. that period last year. In April there was a 7% jump in flying time among its roughly 1,300 customers, compared with April 2010.
The findings mirror those of other analysts who say that after a steep decline during the economic downturn, and after a public backlash against corporate excess, private jet travel is making a comeback. Still, it's way off from its peak.
"We are not back to late '07, early '08 levels, but we're really off the bottom of where we were," says Lou Seno, president and CEO of JSSI. "In the fall of 2008, following the decline of the financial markets … flying literally fell off the charts, and because of the economy and everything else, it has been slow to recover. But the recovery we're seeing has been encouraging."
Industry analyst Brian Foley noted that private flying has been increasing since March 2009, when the departures and landings of business jets had plummeted 35% from their peak in April 2008. It's now down about 10% from that high point, he says.

Evid. 702, Advisory Committee Notes to 2000 Amendments ......................................... 10 iii I. INTRODUCTION Apple's and Penguin's expert Dr. Michelle Burtis has concluded that the economic evidence in this case "is inconsistent with Plaintiffs' allegations of anticompetitive harm in the alleged relevant market." Burtis Decl. ¶ 3. Prices have dropped in that market. Output has exploded. Selection has improved. Product quality has never been better. Innovation has moved at breathtaking speed. Dr. Burtis' comparison of the pre-agency period with the postagency period makes these points decisively. Unable to rebut these facts, Plaintiffs now ask this Court to turn a blind eye to them and exclude Dr. Burtis' testimony along with the underlying economic evidence. This motion should be summarily denied. Plaintiffs do not contest Dr. Burtis' qualifications as an expert. They do not dispute the comprehensiveness of her database or the accuracy of her calculations. They accept that the relevant market is trade e-books (it is their definition, after all). Their allegations about anticompetitive harm in the alleged relevant market are a matter of record. The economic evidence in this case is inconsistent with those allegations and is highly relevant. Facts are facts. The "anticompetitive scheme" Plaintiffs have alleged must be "judged against the realities of the market." Brooke Grp. Ltd. v. Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corp., 509 U.S. 209, 230 (1993). II. A. OVERVIEW Plaintiffs' Allegations As Plaintiffs recognize, they bear the "initial burden to demonstrate that the defendants' challenged behavior 'had an actual adverse effect on competition as a whole in the relevant market.'" P. Br. 35 (quoting Geneva Pharms. Tech. Corp. v. Barr Labs., Inc., 386 F.3d 485, 506-07 (2d Cir. 2004)). Accordingly, in their complaints, Plaintiffs expressly and extensively alleged that retail prices were increased and competition was reduced across the entire relevant 1 market. According to Plaintiffs, "[e]ach Publisher Defendant desired higher retail e-book prices across the industry," DOJ Compl. ¶ 3, and Apple was "perhaps the only company that could facilitate their goal of raising retail e- book prices across the industry," id. ¶ 60. See also States' Second Amended Compl. ¶ 63 ("Apple was actively seeking to bring the Publishers into a collective agreement to use the Agency Model as a mechanism to raise e-book retail prices marketwide."). Plaintiffs contend that this was achieved through the Apple Agency Agreements "that all Defendants knew would raise consumer prices market-wide." P. Br. 31. Plaintiffs assert that the Agreements allowed defendants "to raise, fix, and stabilize retail e-book prices" by "export[ing] the agency model and higher retail prices to the rest of the industry." DOJ Compl. ¶ 91. "Defendants' conspiracy and agreement has resulted in obvious and demonstrable anticompetitive effects on consumers in the trade e-books market by depriving consumers of the benefits of competition among e-book retailers as to both retail prices and retail innovations . . . such that it constitutes an unreasonable restraint on trade." Id. ¶ 98. Among the alleged anticompetitive effects that "Defendants' agreement and conspiracy has had and will continue to have" are "[i]ncreasing the retail prices of trade e-books,"1 "[e]liminating competition on price among e-book retailers," and "[c]onstraining innovation among e-book retailers." Id. ¶ 102(a), (b) & (e) B. Dr. Burtis' Opinion Dr. Burtis opines that the "economic evidence is inconsistent with Plaintiffs' allegations of anticompetitive harm in the alleged relevant market." Burtis Decl. ¶ 3. In reaching this opinion, Dr. Burtis analyzed sales data produced in this litigation and other evidence related to 1 This is a distinct allegation from the claim that defendants restrained "competition on retail price among the Publisher Defendants." DOJ Compl. ¶ 102(c). 2 pricing, output, competitive conditions prior to Apple's entry, the pricing strategy and profitability of other e-book retailers prior to Apple's entry, and e-reader characteristics and prices post-agency in order to "present the Court with a clear and complete picture of the competitive conditions in the alleged relevant market before and after the implementation of the agency agreements." Id. ¶ 13. Given Plaintiffs' claim that the alleged conspiracy caused harm in the alleged relevant market, see supra 1-2, Dr. Burtis sought to "examine indicia of competition across Plaintiffs' entire alleged relevant market," based on the "full range of transactional data produced." Burtis Decl. ¶¶ 15-16. Accordingly, her analysis measures "longer-term effects" in the alleged relevant market post-agency, as well as presents a complete picture of prices and output in the overall trade e-books market on a monthly basis over the course of the year leading up to and following implementation of the Apple agency agreements. See Burtis Decl. ¶ 17; DX-435; DX-436. Dr. Burtis calculated the average retail price of e-books in the alleged relevant market and found that average prices were lower during the post-agency period than the pre-agency period overall, with the average price having fallen lower by January 2011 than it was prior to implementation of the first agency agreements on April 1, 2010. Burtis Decl. ¶¶ 19-20. These results were verified by Plaintiffs' experts Professors Gilbert and Ashenfelter. Id. ¶ 21. Dr. Burtis also opines that "[t]he economic evidence indicates that absent the agency agreements, average prices of eBooks may have been higher than average prices prior to the agreements." Id. ¶ 18. As Dr. Burtis explains, Plaintiffs' experts Professors Gilbert and Ashenfelter present no analysis of prices in the alleged relevant market. Id. ¶ 22. Professor Baker, the sole expert in this litigation who claims that the average retail price of e-books in the alleged relevant market 3 increased following the agency agreements, conducted no data analysis in support of his claim.2 Id. ¶ 23. Dr. Burtis also concluded that "[e]book output in the alleged relevant market continued to increase substantially following implementation of the agency agreements"—another uncontested fact. Id. ¶ 7. III. A. ARGUMENT Dr. Burtis' Testimony Is Relevant To Refute Plaintiffs' Express Allegations Dr. Burtis' testimony—that the economic evidence in this case "is inconsistent with Plaintiffs' allegations of anticompetitive harm in the alleged relevant market"—is not just relevant, it is demonstrably true. While Plaintiffs appear to regret it, they did indeed allege that defendants used "the Agency Model as a mechanism to raise e-book retail prices marketwide," "exported the agency model and higher retail prices to the rest of the industry," and imposed "demonstrable anticompetitive effects on consumers in the trade e-books market by depriving consumers of the benefits of competition." See IIA, supra. Now, faced with the incontrovertible proof that market prices dropped after agency, output expanded, innovation continued and concentration diminished, Plaintiffs' solution is to demand that the Court ignore those facts. But inconvenient facts cannot be dealt with like insubordinate soldiers by having them taken out and shot. Plaintiffs now pretend that they always knew market prices were falling after agency and argue that this fact is somehow irrelevant rather than damning. But, as noted above, Plaintiffs clearly alleged that defendants conspired "to raise, fix, and stabilize retail e-book prices." DOJ Compl. ¶ 91 (emphasis added). Indeed, in the course of Tunney Act proceedings in this case, 2 Plaintiffs do not seek to preclude Dr. Burtis from offering criticisms of Plaintiffs' experts. Mot. 9 n.6. 4 when Barnes & Noble observed "that 'average' retail … prices for e-books have declined under [agency]," the DOJ dismissed the comment derisively: "[U]nlike the United States, B&N does not have access to sales data from competing retailers, so its results only address one retailer's slice of the market." See Response of Plaintiff United States to Public Comments on the Proposed Final Judgment (July 23, 2012), at 29-30. Relying on this superior access to information, the DOJ endorsed the view that "even with these uncertainties, B&N's own data suggests that the collusive agreement played a role in stabilizing retail e-book prices" and that "just as the collusive agency agreements were taking effect in the spring of 2010, a trend of falling e-book pricing was arrested." Id. at 30 (emphasis added). As Dr. Burtis will testify, this is simply not a correct picture of the relevant market. B. Dr. Burtis' Testimony Is Relevant Under Governing Legal Standard Dr. Burtis' testimony is acutely relevant in this case even without regard to Plaintiffs' affirmative allegations of marketwide harm. Under the rule of reason, the fact-finder must consider "the facts peculiar to the business to which the [alleged] restraint is applied [and] its condition before and after the restraint was imposed." Chicago Bd. of Trade v. United States, 246 U.S. 231, 238 (1918). Dr. Burtis has undertaken this exact "before and after" analysis of the relevant market, calculating and evaluating the key indicators of market health. Plaintiffs' contention that this analysis must be excluded is flatly wrong. Plaintiffs' fundamental problem with Dr. Burtis' testimony is that it is not limited in focus to the portion of the market accounted for by the defendant publishers' new releases and bestsellers. But these titles account for only 10% of the paid e-books sold in the alleged relevant market. Burtis Decl. ¶ 6. Plaintiffs bear the burden under the rule of reason of "showing that the challenged action has had an actual adverse effect on competition as a whole in the relevant 5 market." Capital Imaging Assocs., P.C. v. Mohawk Valley Med. Assocs., Inc., 996 F.2d 537, 543 (2d Cir. 1993) (emphasis added); see also P. Br. 35. Dr. Burtis' testimony—showing the healthy state of competition as a whole over the post-agency period—demonstrates that Plaintiffs' partial evidence gives a wholly unrepresentative picture of reality at the market level. This testimony is highly probative of their failure to show that competition in the relevant market overall was restrained. See, e.g., Cont'l T.V., Inc. v. GTE Sylvania, Inc., 433 U.S. 36, 45 (1977) ("Applying the rule of reason to the restrictions that were not imposed in conjunction with the sale of bicycles, the Court had little difficulty finding them all reasonable in light of the competitive situation in 'the product market as a whole.'"); Jefferson Parish Hosp. Dist. No. 2 v. Hyde, 466 U.S. 2, 29-30 & n.48 (1984) (rule of reason claim unsubstantiated when empirical evidence lacking of effect of challenged arrangement on price or quality in the relevant market). The complaint that Dr. Burtis' testimony is "unhelpful, and at worst, misleading" because of a supposed failure to "isolate" the effect of the agency model on the relevant market is highly ironic given the extent to which Plaintiffs' own experts have insulated their own opinions from market realities. Further, Plaintiffs' experts by their own admission have not calculated "butfor" market prices or "but-for" market output. See Apple's Mot. in Limine to Exclude Testimony of Profs. Ashenfelter and Baker at 8-13; Apple's Mot. in Limine to Exclude Testimony of Prof. Gilbert at 7-10; AF ¶ 270. In any event, there is no legal merit to the suggestion that accurate market price and output data are irrelevant to the question of market effects unless pruned, pared, manipulated, abridged, or adjusted. Mot. 7 ("failing to control for outside variables (either via a regression or a short window) renders an opinion unreliable"). To the contrary, the Supreme Court (for example) has found unadjusted market price and output data (over long, not short, windows of time) to be highly relevant in evaluating claims of 6 anticompetitive pricing and output restriction. See Brooke Grp., 509 U.S. at 233-37. Consulting actual market outcomes is little more than common sense. It is routine in antitrust analysis. In another case, for example, the DOJ deemed unadjusted market price data showing an "overall [price] decrease" over an extended period to be a relevant and reliable basis for concluding that an MFN did not raise prices in a market, even while acknowledging that "many factors could have influenced this [market price] decrease." DX-001 (U.S. Dep't of Justice, Statement by Assistant Attorney General R. Hewitt Pate Regarding the Closing of the Orbitz Investigation, at 2-4 (July 31, 2003)). Plaintiffs opine that "Dr. Burtis could have chosen a short window for analyzing the effects of the Apple Agency Agreement," but ignore her explanation for why doing so would be erroneous. Mot. 8. As Dr. Burtis has explained: "[T]he shift from the wholesale model to the agency model represented a significant change in the business model for selling eBooks. Some of the effects of this change in business model, including any procompetitive benefits, would not be immediately apparent in the transactional data. Analysis by Plaintiffs' experts, who for the most part evaluate indicia of competition over shorter durations of time, is incapable of measuring any longer-term effects of the competition and innovation in the alleged relevant market post-agency." Burtis Decl. ¶ 17. Plaintiffs also criticize Dr. Burtis for supposedly failing to control "for the most obvious factors affecting e-book prices, such as the continuing growth of low-priced, self-published ebooks and the changing mix of titles that are offered in digital formats as traditional publishers continue converting their print backlists to digital." Mot. 3. Not so. Dr. Burtis' testimony will allow the Court to assess whether "other factors" independent of entry by Apple and the advent and success of the agency model caused prices to fall. For example, Dr. Burtis has calculated average prices of all relevant groupings of publishers for every point in time over the entire 2008-2012 time period for which market data were available. Burtis Decl. ¶¶ 11-13, 19; DX434; DX-435. The Court can examine this information and determine whether the DOJ was 7 correct to advance the view (in the Tunney Act proceedings) that "just as the collusive agency agreements were taking effect in the spring of 2010, a trend of falling e-book pricing was arrested." See Response of Plaintiff United States to Public Comments on the Proposed Final Judgment (July 23, 2012), at 30. (In fact, average market price was largely flat over the 20082009 period; in the 2010-2012 period, the trend was downward. See DX-434; DX-435.) Dr. Burtis' calculations show plainly how Apple's entry stimulated Amazon to compete. "For example, since the entry of Apple, the growth in Amazon's catalog has accelerated. . . . [I]n the five months prior to agency and Apple's entry, Amazon reported a 29% increase in the number of titles available, while over the five months after agency, the increase was 46%." Burtis Decl. ¶ 33; DX-463. Plaintiffs simply overlook the decisive fact that a durable effect of Apple's entry via the agency model was and is the stimulation of interbrand competition.3 As another example of this, just days after learning of Apple's looming entry into the e-book market on the agency model, see Grandinetti Decl. ¶¶ 36-38; Naggar Decl. ¶¶ 23-26, Amazon announced on January 20, 2010 that it would reduce its commission on self-publisher sales from 65% to 30%, exactly mimicking Apple's agency model (in this regard as in others). See DX-196 (Amazon Press Release, "Amazon Announces New 70 Percent Royalty Option for Kindle Digital Text Platform" (Jan. 20, 2010)); Burtis Decl. ¶ 43 (Amazon program involved terms much like those in the Apple agency model). Dr. Burtis has studied carefully how this 70-30 split in revenue (embraced by both Amazon and Apple) promoted entry and growth by 3 See, e.g., Leegin Creative Leather Prods., Inc. v. PSKS, Inc., 551 U.S. 877, 895 (2007) (the "antitrust laws are designed primarily to protect interbrand competition, from which lower prices can later result"); In re Sulfuric Acid Antitrust Litig., 703 F.3d 1004, 1012 (7th Cir. 2012) ("The plaintiffs' claim that the price would have been even lower without the [challenged price-raising] agreements is doubtful, as we have said, because without the agreements the [defendants] might not have entered the U.S. market"). 8 independent and self-publishers. Burtis Decl. ¶¶ 40-43; DX-441. Plaintiffs thus have no warrant to complain of the inclusion of these sales in Dr. Burtis' study of the relevant market. See Mot. 4 ("makes no sense" to include Amazon self-publisher sales in evaluating agency). On the contrary, to exclude them would be a distortion of market reality. C. Dr. Burtis' Work Meets The Reliability Standards Of Rule 702 In seeking to exclude her testimony, Plaintiffs cite a number of cases in which, they say, expert testimony has been excluded due to failure to account for alternative explanations of the alleged outcome. See Mot. 6-7. These cases are not on point, however, and certainly do not uphold the exclusion of an expert's opinion that real world, undisputed data on price, output, and innovation are inconsistent with alleged anticompetitive effects. This is not a case of Dr. Burtis basing her conclusions on a "regression[] so incomplete as to be inadmissible as irrelevant." Bickerstaff v. Vassar Coll., 196 F.3d 435, 449 (2d Cir. 1999); see also In re Wireless Tele. Serv. Antitrust Litig., 385 F. Supp. 2d 403, 427 (S.D.N.Y. 2005) ("Where an expert conducts a regression analysis and fails to incorporate major independent variables, such analysis may be excluded as irrelevant."); Malletier v. Dooney & Bourke, Inc., 525 F. Supp. 2d 558, 667-78 (S.D.N.Y. 2007) (holding that expert opinion based on a single factor regression analysis was not reliable). Dr. Burtis does not conduct a regression analysis and, despite Plaintiffs' suggestion otherwise, a "regression analysis is not a mandatory feature in all applications of economics or statistics." U.S. v. Valencia, 600 F.3d 389, 427 (5th Cir. 2010) (upholding admission of expert testimony based on calculation of weighted-average prices and observation of trends). As discussed above, Dr. Burtis' testimony presents a full picture of market data that will allow the Court to assess whether "other factors" independent of entry by Apple and the advent and success of the agency model caused prices to fall. See U.S. Info. Sys. v. Int'l Bhd. of Elec. 9 Workers Local Union No. 3, 313 F. Supp. 213, 238-239 (S.D.N.Y. 2004) ("In order for [expert's] testimony to be admissible, he need only demonstrate that he has 'adequately accounted' for alternative explanations") (quoting Fed. R. Evid. 702, Advisory Committee Notes to 2000 Amendments); cf. In re Wireless, 385 F. Supp. 2d at 427 (excluding testimony where expert "failed to consider or test for any alternative explanations"). The cases cited by Plaintiffs in which courts excluded expert testimony where such testimony failed to meet a plaintiff's burden of proof on damages or otherwise are inapposite.4 Dr. Burtis' testimony is reliable and highly relevant to the core issues in this case. It cannot be excluded. IV. CONCLUSION Apple respectfully requests that this Court deny Plaintiffs' motion to preclude Dr. Burtis from offering at trial any opinion on competitive effects. 4 See Raskin v. Wyatt Co., 125 F.3d 55, 67-68 (2d Cir. 1997) (discrimination claim required a "showing of causation between the challenged practice and alleged disparities" and statistical analysis that did not provide reliable evidence of causation failed "to make it more or less likely that [defendant] engaged in age discrimination"); Claar v. Burlington N. R.R., 29 F.3d 499, 502 (9th Cir. 1994) (upholding exclusion of expert's opinion where "[h]e offered no scientific basis for concluding that chemical exposure played any part at all in [plaintiff's] condition."); In re Executive Telecard, Ltd. Sec. Litig., 979 F. Supp. 1021, 1025 (S.D.N.Y. 1997) (excluding expert opinion where damages in securities fraud case "require[s] elimination of that portion of the price decline that is the result of forces unrelated to the wrong" and expert failed to do so). 10 Myers LLP

Charles Wallace dies after collapsing at Indian River County Jail
Updated On: Jul 26 2013 11:47:29 AM EDT
An inmate at the Indian River County Jail has died.
Charles Wallace, 54, was pronounced dead Thursday morning at Indian River Medical Center after collapsing in his jail cell.
Indian River County Sheriff's Office spokesman Thom Raulen said Wallace had gone to breakfast and returned to his cell shortly before collapsing. Another inmate told corrections deputies that Wallace was sitting on his bunk when he collapsed.
Wallace had been arrested on a parole violation and was scheduled to be transferred to a state prison Saturday. He had previously been admitted to the hospital July 18 and was discharged the next day.
An initial investigation revealed that the death appears to be related to Wallace's medical history, but an autopsy will be conducted to determine the cause.

December 18, 2014
.CHICAGO (AP) -- The Chicago Tobacco Prevention Project is greeting the new year with tips for smokers resolving to quit. Here are some of them:
--Make a list of reasons to quit and carry it with you. Review these reasons when the urge to smoke hits.
--Set a quit date in advance and make preparations for starting a new, smoke-free life.
--Remove evidence of cigarettes. Clean out your car, wash your clothes, put away ashtrays and toss out all your cigarettes.
--Change other habits. Sit in a different chair at the kitchen table, take a new route to work or drink tea instead of coffee.
--Reward yourself for not smoking. Set short- and long-term goals, and reward yourself for achieving each target.

It seems that art is always a good investment as long as you personally like what you buy, just in case you can't resell it! However, this list seems rather predictable and expected--which I suppose is what exists in this price range. For a lot less, I think there is a wealth of incredible art produced by emerging and younger artists!

"Hey, I'm pretty sure it was the other headlight that was broken when I left."Sprites are pixel art characters used in video games. Unlike a 3D model, you can't simply rotate a sprite to get a new view of it. Additional clothes, poses, and each frame of animation for actions have to be made almost entirely from scratch. For this reason, artists will usually make sprites perfectly bilaterally symmetrical. That way, any poses or actions made facing left could simply be flipped to make the same poses and actions facing right. There were also memory size concerns on earlier platforms. It was often more efficient to mirror the sprite than to store the opposite poses, especially with graphics hardware that made horizontal flipping as simple as changing one bit of sprite data. However, sometimes the concept for a character doesn't lend itself to symmetry. It might have an object in one hand or an eye patch or scar on one side. Whatever it is, simply flipping the sprite causes the feature to "change sides." In the most blatant examples, the sprite will have letters or numbers on it which flip with the sprite. Sometimes, developers will take the time to make a separate sprite for both the left and right facings. Usually, though, they won't bother. This isn't limited to 2D games, although it is most common there. Older 3D games store the views of the character positioned in 45-degree increments, but will stop at 180 degrees and make up the three remaining views through mirroring. In addition, some modern 3D fighting games mirror the character animations intentionally to resemble their 2D precursors. With the advent of Flash as an animation platform, this is starting to leak from video games into animation as well; compare Cheated Angle. Since this is a ubiquitous trope, please only note examples where it is either glaringly obvious or averted.

Complete May 2013
This contract includes four seperate projects that have been combined into one, significantly reducing costs.Two are P-1 Paving/Safety Restoration Roadway Preservation projects:
One is an I-2 Collision Prevention Safety Improvement Program Project:
A Chelan County project to build sidewalk on Easy St. from the US 2/97 intersection at Olds Station, north for a block to Melody Lane and the Park and Ride lot has been incorporated into the project to reduce costs and to maximize the federal grant the county received.
Why is WSDOT

This project:
The average traffic count through this intersection is almost 9,000 vehicles per day. These volumes have produced delays for cross-road traffic- the result of the lack of gaps to turn onto the highway. Faced with these conditions, drivers sometimes make decisions that end up resulting in a collision or a near miss. A roundabout will reduce these delays, conflicts and potential collisions between drivers on the highway and those on the side roads. One of the best safety features of roundabouts is that, by design, they eliminate high speed left turn and right angle conflicts which are the ones that result in the most serious collisions. According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, roundabouts have been shown to reduce fatal collisions by 90 percent, injury collisions by 80 percent and total collisions by almost 40 percent.Something you may not know about roundabouts involves how trucks get through them properly courtesy of what's called a truck apron. That's the raised, circular concrete part that sits around the center of a roundabout and acts like an extra lane for large vehicles. So when you're driving a roundabout, and see a trailer riding up on that raised concrete circle, don't worry. That's what it's there for. (See the pictures and video). To learn more, watch "how do I drive a roundabout video" on YouTube and visit WSDOT's roundabout website.
