A lament on the axing of Jill Abramson
Yesterday, the three-year tenure of the New York TimesтАЩ first female executive editor, Jill Abramson, abruptly came to an end. No one is quite sure why it happened, but it seems pretty clear that being a woman had something to do with it.
It was either her pay (she found out it was less than her male predecessor, like most female editors, and asked for a raise), her management style (pushy, brusque, a lot of other words that only seem to be attributed to women in leadership roles), her (failed) attempt to appoint Janine Gibson as co-managing editor (which didnтАЩt sit well with the now executive editor Dean Baquet), her proclivity toward giving interviews (as a young female journalist very interested in the TimesтАЩ first female editor, IтАЩm offended), or some combination of the four.
What is clear is that the TimesтАЩ publisher, Arthur Sulzberger Jr., didnтАЩt just fire Abramson, he humiliated her (and not for the first time, Gabriel Sherman notes). This comes at a time when, whatever her faults navigating the paperтАЩs internal politics, the paper is doing well. While at the helm, Abramson didnтАЩt start any wars or harbor any plagiarists, Rolling Stone reporter Tim Dickinson points out. Yet she was kicked to the curb with less dignity than any of her predecessors, seemingly because of… her personality? Her personality! YouтАЩd think the top brass knew something about her personality before she was given the job. (ThereтАЩs also the TimesтАЩ poor digital performance, though Sulzberger has not said the two were related.)
Being well-liked isnтАЩt traditionally a necessary condition for being an effective manager. But for whatever reason, conflicts with female managers have a tendency to become personal in a way that conflicts with male managers do not. People are annoyed, even enraged, by the actions of men who make decisions they donтАЩt like. But they take personal offense, even show visceral hatred toward, female managers they do not agree with.
ItтАЩs hard to see a way in which this wasnтАЩt the case with Abramson, based on the less-than-convincing evidence given that she deserved to be unceremoniously shoved out the door. Her predecessor, Bill Keller, is still a columnist at the Times. Howell Raines, who was fired after Jayson Blair was caught fabricating stories, left тАЬwith an address to the staff; his wife was presentтАЭ, notes Rebecca Traister.
The New York Times appears to have wanted a woman at the top, without actually letting her be in charge. The message here is that women тАФ even the most powerful woman in media тАФ are meant to fall in line. When they donтАЩt, they are dumped. End of story. Please donтАЩt ask questions. LetтАЩs move on.

Halo 4
I miss Halo 4

Went over to my cousin's last weekend and took H4 with me, played a bit of it with them. They couldnt find their Black Ops 2 Case (he almost exclusively plays it, so, figure that) so we just put it in my H4 case.
So in my morning daze I forget we played H4 long into the night and herp derp, left it in his 360. I get home and after all of my work this week go to play H4, and black ops is sitting in my case.
I miss not seeing people warp around like nightcrawler on meth. I also miss the fact that if I walk around the corner, they dont get a kill for shooting where I was 1 second ago.
People might rip this game but it certainly has one thing going for it and that is, in my opinion, negligable lag.
TLDR: I miss you guys and the chief D=

My cousin stole 10 games from me last week.
My cousin stole a cop car then went on a high speed chase where he racked up 11 counts of attempted murder on police officers (and shot the helicopter that was following from above). Now he's doing 34-L in Calipatria state prison.
I like throwing that out there whenever I get the chance ^_^

Republicans out front of Obama on regulations
WASHINGTON When President Barack Obama asked businesses for advice on creating jobs, he might have anticipated that more than 200 responses would quickly be headed his way courtesy of Rep. Darrell Issa, a Republican who once called him corrupt.
A month before Obama reached out to businesses, the new chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee sent 171 letters to various businesses and their trade associations. He asked for help in "identifying existing and proposed regulations that have negatively impacted job growth."
This Thursday, Issa is giving business representatives an opportunity at a hearing by his committee to vent their frustration with government requirements issued by unelected bureaucrats. He wants Obama to include their responses in a review of government regulations the president ordered last month in the administration's effort to find rules that cost Americans jobs.
Issa and Obama don't have to look far. Last month, The Associated Press reported that the Interior Department's Office of Surface Mining and Reclamation estimates the administration's proposal for protecting streams from coal mining would strip away about 7,000 of the industry's nearly 81,000 jobs.
Large and small businesses and trade associations told Issa, R-Calif., that they want to change or eliminate more than of 100 regulations - more than half related to the environment and others governing financial rules, the workplace and transportation.
The president's initiative opened the door for Issa to walk through, as Obama looks to improve a frayed relationship with business before the 2012 election. In addition to the regulatory review, the president enlisted the help of two powerhouse executives to advise him on job creation and competitiveness: AOL co-founder Steve Case and General Electric chief executive Jeff Immelt.
Obama on Monday defended government regulations in a speech to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, even as he promised to eliminate those that are too burdensome.
Politically, it would appear that Issa and Obama are on the same page for the moment, even though the congressman once called him "one of the most corrupt presidents in modern times." Issa later clarified the comment, saying he was referring to wasteful spending, not criminal corruption.
Issa said Monday, "The president has recognized the value in examining the regulatory barriers impeding private sector job creation." In addition to his letters, Issa has launched a new website, www.americanjobcreators.com that allows businesses to describe their problems with government regulations.
But with both parties looking toward the 2012 election, the traditional political divisions could emerge when it's time to act on the responses. Republicans want Obama to throw his EPA administrator, Lisa Jackson, under the bus as she moves to set stricter air pollution standards under the Clean Air Act, including for the gases blamed for global warming. Democrats passed a bill to limit the amount of greenhouse gases two years ago when they controlled the House, but the measure never got a vote in the Senate.
House Republicans have scheduled a vote this week on broadening a congressional review of regulations. A resolution would direct 10 committees to identify federal requirements that impede job creation, discourage innovation, hurt economic growth and investment, harm global competitiveness and limit access to credit and capital.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.


text: They refused to admit - Read "Save the Wall Street" In the long-term capital management company has 4.3 billion huge losses, reached the brink of bankruptcy and thus cause the whole to come to rescue Wall Street after the LTCM partners is how to deal with this event for? They really know their failure caused it? On the surface, these long-term capital management company partners on many public occasions to show the attitude of a kind and responsible, apologize to their investors. In fact, they never say clearly what is wrong with them! In their view, the company's crisis is not occurring from the inside, but entirely by external factors. The head of John Meriwether who had been denied, resulting in the crisis is mainly because the excessive use of financial leverage, which leads to Zichanzuge Guimokuozhang over. Therefore, they will be directed Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, traders and other companies, accusing them unconscionable and it is very bad deal, that makes the company fell to such an extent. It seems that they are unwilling to admit. They said that emerged in August 1998 a significant reduction in market liquidity, and the resulting rush of cash in September, which makes the Long Term Capital Management became the scapegoat for the market. The company's central figure, Nobel Laureate in Economics marlung Scholes Fed rescue LTCM occasion of the anniversary meeting, a very "pertinent" to justify long-term Capital Management, when low interest credit rating of bonds poor level has expanded to just simply can not be solved with the risk of default reached a point where. He therefore concluded that there must be some sort of spread them "liquidity spread" exists, that is, investors hold bonds with good mobility are willing to pay the premium. In fact the market did take place at a certain event, leading to investors for fear of further aggravating the situation and away from the market. So, Scholes criticism, both academic and practical work department did not this "fear the loss of market liquidity under pressure factor" into the model, nor on the factors that may impact on the market price of depth. Which he was "very sorry." However, Scholes and the company of other highly intelligent people why is not the "fear of loss of market liquidity under pressure factor" into the model, and may impact on the market price of depth it? Clearly, liquidity is only an outward manifestation of the problem, not the fundamental reason causing this problem. This Scholes avoided a crucial question, that is why the academic and practical work departments that have long been ignored and that was quite clearly the existence of liquidity risk. Scholes to strive to justify themselves in, people can not see any long-term Capital Management Why do you want to put themselves at great risk because of this analysis. Please note that a speed of 30 miles per hour, people in cars, but also on the way to leave a Xue whine, but if a 100 miles per hour and drag racing, people simply do not have the right to find fault! Based on this understanding, in the Long Term Capital Management suffered a major loss of historic, they still insisted that he had not committed any error of principle. They have argued that long-term capital management company has a deep crisis, mainly because they had a rare encounter financial storm - so the financial crisis of 2008, we again heard, is too similar to what's familiar. "I am convinced." Rumsfeld is such corporate heavyweights 艾 里 克 罗 森 explained, "I think we had some situations never before encountered." Rosenfeld said such a thing as time, it seems that only his company encountered such a "situation." In fact, this situation has occurred many times, it is not "rare." Mexico happened, happened on Wall Street, occurred in Thailand, Russia occurred, the stock market occurred, occurred in the bond market, silver market has occurred. In a financial history, prices have fallen too far in the "fat tail" phenomenon after another. Only those who wish to historical price data, based on research carried out transactions, their results can only be total crop failure. Of course, they do not feel that Rosenfeld, who has always insisted that recognition, and now the market is too big spreads, it is a great opportunity for investment, can not be a better investment opportunity than now, because the model is so say! However, the market has already proven with irrefutable facts, they are completely wrong. If the Wall Street rescue operations a year later, the market still can not prove their view is correct, but Wall Street has been gradually recovering, the long-term Capital Management hedge arbitrage is still no improvement. Therefore, LTCM the problems, not just the liquidity issue, but its overall investment strategy there is a clear error. There is evidence that at least two factors on the rout a huge role: first, the company view of the market and deviation, and second, to protect themselves from LTCM's drag, a significant reduction of other companies market trading activities, resulting in the liquidity of the market disappeared. December 1999, LTCM lost a total of 45 billion U.S. dollars, and almost the entire Wall Street dragged down. In early 2000, LTCM has finally started winding up of cash, and generation of well-known hedge funds such as the camel has fallen meteor, really is like food do birds cast forest, down a piece vast expanse of land really clean! But the strange thing is that just 15 months later, after a thousand head of 约翰麦利 威瑟 grinding all kinds of hardships and some partners are easily, and from there to raise investors 1.5 million reconstruction of a fund, to prepare again "sea voyage." ?

Mike Skinner, for whom The Streets are almost a solo project on record, has, over two exhilarating albums, overturned the canard that the British cannot make innovative dance music.
The hastily arranged Brixton show was a warm-up for tonight's Alexandra Palace spectacular. The biggest headline show of Skinner's life promised to be career-defining, but instead, he announced that there would be no more Streets albums. If so, it's a premature shame, but last night didn't feel like the end.

Soulja Boy – Handsome | New Music
Atlanta's own, Soulja Boy, returns today with something new for our listening enjoyment called "Handsome". The track finds Soulja getting busy over top of a highly contagious Young Chop beat that Soulja hits running and he speaks about his lavish lifestyle.
"Handsome" is driven by a haunting synth that gets backed up by Chop's normal rattling snare and hard hitting bass drums that makes a nice home for Soulja's braggadocious bars. Do yourself a favor and check out the track after the jump and speak your mind below.
Signed, Jesse James

Boeing airliner crashes in Russia, 50 killed
The Tatarstan airlines flight from Moscow was trying to abort its landing in order to make a second approach, but it exploded on hitting the runway, killing all 44 passengers and six crew on board, emergency officials said.
The only picture shown from the scene on Russian television reports was a blurred still shot of the plane's fuselage with firefighters in the foreground, apparently after they had extinguished a fire at the scene.
Flight U363 took off from Moscow's Domodedovo airport at 6:25 pm (1425 GMT) and crashed just over an hour later, emergency officials said.
The plane was 23 years old.

Traditional staking methods can be detrimental to the growth and development of your newly planted trees. Problems identified by researchers and tree professionals through the years include less stability in winds once the staking is removed; diminished trunk taper as a result of rigid staking; and girdling of the trunk from ropes or wires used in the staking apparatus. In addition, guy wires can be a tripping hazard, especially in public areas.

I wrote about a Japanese-planned space elevator last week and among the indisputable facts I listed was that it was to be operated by anime-style spacemen with eyes that take up 40 percent of their faces, that the project is to be overseen by Hello Kitty, and that it will reach 9,652 miles into space, or one-fourth of the way to the moon.
On Sept. 26 I had the opportunity to attend one of the N.C.

The board of directors has recommended a cash dividend of 15 per cent of the share face value, or 15 fils (5.1 cents) per share.
"2003 proved to be a banner year for KIPCO, and one in which careful strategies put in place in recent years began to bear fruit," said KIPCO managing director and chief executive officer Faisal Al Ayyar.
"These strategies, with twin goals of building sustainable profits and growing the real value of the Group, have resulted in substantial increases in profits and underlying value. It is gratifying that this performance has been recognised by investors with a sharp increase in the price of KIPCO shares, and we are extremely optimistic that KIPCO is poised to continue from strength to strength," he said.
Total revenues for 2003 increased by 70 per cent to KD 68.1 million (US$ 231.1 million) from KD 40.1 million (US$ 136.2 million) in 2002. Total assets were KD 685 million (US$ 2.3 billion) compared to KD 579.1 million (US$ 1.96 billion), a rise of 18.3 per cent, and shareholders' equity grew by 14.6 per cent to KD 160.5 million US$ 544.6 million) from KD 140 million (US$ 475.1 million) in 2002.
During the year, the market value of KIPCO's investments in core listed subsidiaries and associated companies rose by KD 141.5 million (US$ 480.2 million), an increase of 53 per cent from KD 266.9 million (US$ 905.8 million) in 2002, to KD 408.5 million (US$ 1.4 billion). This increase in market value translates into KD 209.7 million (US$ 711.6 million) of unrecognised appreciation in KIPCO's book value.
KIPCO Group companies previously announcing 2003 results have also demonstrated strong performances, with highlights including United Real Estate's (URC) record net profit of KD 13.1 million (US$ 44.4 million), a rise of 334 per cent; United Gulf Bank (UGB) also posting record earnings of KD 10.7 million (US$ 36.2 million); Gulf Insurance Company (GIC) announcing a 9.5 per cent growth in profit to KD 5.5 million (US$ 18.6 million); and Burgan Bank's net profit of KD 20.3 million (US$ 68.8 million), an increase of 59 per cent.
Other KIPCO Group listed companies due to announce 2003 results are Wataniya Telecom, KIPCO Asset Management Company (KAMCO), United Industries, and United Fisheries of Kuwait (UFK). The complete KIPCO portfolio of more than 60 subsidiary and affiliate companies includes high-profile industry-leading organisations such as Showtime, the hugely-popular satellite pay-TV service, a joint venture with Viacom International
KIPCO, with assets of US$ 10 billion under management or control, is one of the leading diversified holding companies in the Middle East and North Africa, and a major regional force in financial services and media & technology with further interests in real estate and industry. KIPCO is the largest private company in Kuwait and employs more than 10,000 people internationally. Its shares are the most actively traded on the Kuwait Stock Exchange.

El reporte es variado pero en su mayoría son reportes de bugs así que decidí ponerlo aquí. En general son 2 bugs críticos, uno menor, una petición y finalmente una pregunta.

Tupi (beta) installer for Windows XP
Today I have released a very minimalistic version of Tupi for Windows XP. The fact that Microsoft is not supporting that OS anymore makes harder to provide all the features for this Tupi version. Any way, I wanted to give a little taste of the project to the people who is still working with Windows XP:
Tupi installer for Windows: AT LAST! :D
Finally, one of the hardest goals of this project has been achieved this week. And of course, I must say: it wasn't easy at all but (god dammit) we did it! :D
So here is the first result of this huge effort, a 32-bit installer for Win7:
Right now I keep working on the installers for Windows XP and Win8.x, expecting to release them as soon as they are ready.
The crowdfunding campaign is over: Thank you!
Dear backer,
First at all, I want to say THANK YOU for your contribution to this crazy adventure. 31 days struggling to achieve the proposed goal and finally WE did it: the first version of the Tupi's installer for Windows will be released in a couple of days! :D
In fact, I must confess that few moments of my life have been so intense as this crowdfunding campaign.
Tupi's Crowdfunding Campaign 2014
The countdown for my next crowdfunding campaign [1] is getting close, so I decided to write a little article [2] describing some details of this campaign and several tips for the people wanting to help me on this crusade. Everyone's invited!

Finally! The latest minor version of Tupi is out! I just want to invite to all our community to download and try this new release.
As usual questions, comments and suggestions are very welcome :)

While the Qt5 port of Tupi keeps advancing, a new minor release of the Qt4 branch is coming ready.

In-House Corporate Compliance Investigation and Privilege
By now, most companies are aware of the benefits of having a compliance program and policies in place to effectively investigate non-compliance issues and to discover and disclose improper conduct in a timely manner. Clearly, robust compliance programs and policies promote compliance with the law and protect the company's legal interest. The recently issued federal court opinion in United States ex rel. Barko v. Halliburton Co., No. 1:05-CV-1276 (D.D.C. slip op. issued March 6, 2014), will likely urge litigants to assert that such compliance programs and policies are merely "routine business practices," and that information obtained and documents created in the course of such compliance programs are not subject to the protections of either the attorney-client privilege or the work-product doctrine, and thus subject to discovery.
Workers' Compensation Commission's Authority to Review Court of Existing Claims Decisions
On April 17, the Oklahoma Supreme Court held that the Workers' Compensation Commission cannot review an order of award made by the Court of Existing Claims for an injury occurring prior to February 1, 2014, despite provisions which provides for the Commission's authority to review such matters.
Cold Comfort: Recent Federal Guidance on Handling the Proceeds of Marijuana Related Businesses Offers Little Real Assurance to Financial Institutions
When states like Colorado and Washington announced the legal sale of marijuana for recreational use, it raised a number of concerns—legal, moral, political and practical. Given that sale and use of marijuana was still illegal under federal law, there were substantial questions about how the Department of Justice (DOJ) would approach enforcement of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) which conflicted with state law. The DOJ offered a partial answer to that question in an August 2013 memo. However, the August guidance left open the question of how the financial services industry could handle the proceeds of legal marijuana sales.
Impact of the Affordable Care Act on Native Americans
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is a vast, complex law that has been the subject of considerable ambiguity and confusion, including the impacts and application the ACA has had on Native American governments and tribal citizens. Some guidance has recently been given regarding the impact of the ACA on individual Native Americans regarding health insurance coverage.

Shutdown City - What the Federal Shutdown Means for Employers
With Congress failing to pass a continuing resolution necessary to fund the federal government's operations, the government formally shutdown at midnight on Tuesday, October 1, 2013. Of course, those government functions that are deemed "essential" will continue to operate, but what about the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) or United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)?
Telephone Act Changes May Impact Debt Collection Process for Hospitals

Croton lechleri
|Croton lechleri
|Scientific classification
|C. lechleri
|Binomial name
|Croton lechleri
Croton lechleri is a species of flowering plant in the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae, that is native to northwestern South America. It is commonly known as Sangre de Grado (Peruvian Spanish) or Sangre de Drago (Ecuadorian Spanish), both of which translate to "dragon's blood". They refer to the tree's thick red latex.[2]
The latex has medicinal properties, and is used by local peoples as a liquid bandage, applied to seal wounds, as it dries quickly to form a protective skin-like barrier. The latex also contains a number of chemicals, including taspine, that have wound-healing properties.[3] Its use by native people has led to scientific study and observation of its in vitro antioxidant activity as well as its mutagenicity.[4]
Oligomeric proanthocyanidins, another kind of chemical contained in the latex, are being developed for the treatment of HIV-associated diarrhea under the name crofelemer.[5] In January 2013, crofelemer, under the trade name Fulyzaq, was approved by the FDA for the treatment of HIV-associated diarrhea.

Travel reviews by
acqua restaurant
Based on 40 traveler reviews
Dec 18, 2014 by: Embers233 from Boston, Massachusetts
On a Sunday night in early December we were the only diners which allowed us to work before and after our meal without a lot of distraction. Menu is limited. Food is above average.
Great beer better food
Nov 05, 2014 by: ggreenggiant from
Acqua is a nice place to have a beer or just have a couple friends out to mingle. Big bar and a great beer and wine selection. The beer boiled mussels is a must with a local micro brew. Recommend the crab cake sandwich who've are the same crab cakes they use for the dinner plate.
Crab bites
Oct 27, 2014 by: Joeygirl007 from Orlando, Florida
I order crab cakes. I was told I'll get three crab cakes. Instead, I got 3 crab bites. They were good but super tiny. Kid menu size food. Place was empty but a few people at the bar.
Was in MD and wanted crab cakes. Very pleased.
Oct 25, 2014 by: BLDTraveler from Albuquerque, NM
I stayed at a nearby hotel and had not had crab cakes in a while. This popped up on my GPS, so I figured why not. It is in the Hilton hotel. Parking was easy. Nice lounge area. My server appeared right away, but then seemed to get engrossed in conversation at every other table so I waited quite a while for my wine. Food was brought out by others, so no real wait. My caesar salad had sliced greek olives which was an interesting touch. The crab cakes were perfect. There were two that were tennis ball sized. Seemed as though they were nothing but crab. Vegetable substitution was no problem. The crab cakes were served on an very interesting carrot/bacon hash which at first I thought would be weird, but was quite tasty. Salad, entree and inexpensive bottle of wine ($25, which I took leftovers with me) was $75.00 before tip. I would return.
Past Good, Present Horrible
Sep 29, 2014 by: Rick H from Blacksburg, Virginia
I have stayed at the Hilton BWI several times and eaten at the acqua bar most times I stayed at the Hilton BWI. Generally the food, drinks & service have been good. However, tonight was the exception. Bartender "Jess" was much more concerned with: 1) her phone, 2) the fact that she was not getting enough quality hours, 3) what others were doing, etc. What was off her, and the manager's, radar was customers and cleaning up the bar. I have tolerated a lot of poor service, but the WW II vets that also occupied the bar deserve better! Next time I am here I will check the bar to see if I will stay or go; all depends on who is tending bar. Fix it or don't be surprised by an empty bar.

Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa, at more than US$500 billion, and ranks 23rd in the world. A recent re-evaluation of Nigeria's true economic size doubled the previous estimate, and brought it well ahead of South Africa, which is a member (unlike Nigeria) of the G20 club for political as well as economic reasons. Nigeria's economy can be said to be quite diverse from one point of view, but heavily dependent on oil and gas at the same time. Oil and natural gas account for about 15% of Nigera's overall economy, but traditionally represent more than 90% of the country's exports and as...
