Nov. 29 (Bloomberg) -- Stocks and commodities rose for a second day as U.S. consumer confidence increased by the most since 2003 and European finance ministers discussed efforts to tame the region's debt crisis. Treasuries pared losses.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index added 0.2 percent to 1,195.19 at 4 p.m. in New York, trimming its rally from 0.9 percent. The Stoxx Europe 600 Index rose 0.8 percent. The euro climbed 0.1 percent $1.3329 after earlier erasing a gain of as much as 0.9 percent. The S&P GSCI gauge of 24 commodities advanced 1.3 percent as oil approached $100 a barrel. Ten-year U.S. Treasury yields rose two basis points to 2 percent after dropping 1 point.
U.S. equities added to yesterday's rally after the Conference Board's sentiment gauge climbed to 56 from a revised 40.9 in October as consumers grew more optimistic about jobs and income prospects. Europe's effort to expand its bailout fund to 1 trillion euros ($1.3 trillion) is falling short and finance ministers tonight will discuss channeling European Central Bank loans to struggling nations through the International Monetary Fund.
"The economic reports have shown that the U.S. has been insulated from all the noise coming out of Europe," Paul Zemsky, the New York-based head of asset allocation for ING Investment Management, said in a telephone interview. His firm oversees $550 billion. "Consumers are not really bothered by that, at least not yet."
Rally Extended
The S&P 500 snapped a seven-day slump yesterday, rallying 2.9 percent for its largest gain in a month, after Thanksgiving- weekend retail sales rose to a record and speculation grew that European leaders would increase efforts to fight the region's debt crisis.
Today's gains were led by energy, utility and consumer staples companies. Hewlett-Packard Co., Home Depot Inc. and Exxon Mobil Corp. climbed at least 1.3 percent to pace gains in the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
AMR Corp., the parent of American Airlines, tumbled 79 percent after filing for bankruptcy as it failed to secure cost- cutting labor agreements. Corning Inc., the world's largest maker of glass for flat-panel televisions, plunged 11 percent to lead a drop in technology shares after cutting its fourth- quarter earnings forecast because of the loss of a contract and lower glass prices.
Confidence Beats
The reading of 56 in the Conference Board's confidence gauge topped the most optimistic economist forecast in a Bloomberg survey and compared with the median estimate of 44. The report was the third-strongest relative to expectations since at least 1999, Bespoke Investment Group LLC said in a note to clients today, and the S&P 500 has rallied on average 1.3 percent on days when the number beat the consensus forecast by 10 or more.
"What it may indicate is that the U.S. equity market has made its low for 2011 since major lows in the equity market do often coincide with lows in consumer confidence," Michael Shaoul, chairman of Marketfield Asset Management in New York, said in a note to clients.
The Dollar Index, which tracks the U.S. currency against those of six trading partners, declined 0.3 percent. The S&P GSCI index extended yesterday's 1.4 percent rally as wheat and natural gas climbed more than 2.9 percent to lead gains in 18 of 24 commodities.
Yellen, Lockhart
Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Janet Yellen said the central bank has leeway to spur the U.S. recovery and reduce unemployment by purchasing more assets and clarifying its plan to sustain record-low borrowing costs. Fed Bank of Atlanta President Dennis Lockhart said expanding securities purchases is unlikely to give a sufficient boost to U.S. growth, without ruling out the strategy or other easing options.
Oil climbed 1.6 percent to $99.79 a barrel and earlier topped $100 a barrel in New York as Iranian protesters broke into and vandalized the British Embassy's compound in Tehran.
Among European stocks, Remy Cointreau jumped 2.9 percent after France's second-biggest distiller predicted "a substantial increase" in full-year earnings. BASF SE and K+S AG pulled a gauge of chemical makers higher, rising more than 2 percent. IG Group Holdings Plc rallied 9.3 percent, the most since 2010.
Italy was again forced to sell bonds at rates exceeding 7 percent today, a level that led Greece, Portugal and Ireland to seek bailouts.
Italian Yields
Italy sold 3.5 billion euros in three-year debt, 2.5 billion euros of 2022 bonds and 1.5 billion euros in 2020 bonds. The 2014 note yielded 7.89 percent, the highest since 1996 for a three-year bond and up from 4.93 percent when similar-maturity debt was sold last month. Demand for the 2014 bond was 1.5 times the amount sold and the bid-to-cover for the 2022 bond was 1.34 times, both higher than Oct. 28 auctions.
"High yields are not a real surprise, given the recent developments in Italian yields," Annalisa Piazza, a strategist at Newedge Group in London, wrote in a report. "Bid-cover was higher than at the previous auction at the end of October as very cheap valuations might have attracted some interest."
The yield on Italian 10-year bonds increased less than one basis point to 7.24 percent after rising as high as 7.38 percent, while two-year yields slipped one basis point to 7.10 percent after increasing to as high as 7.37 percent earlier.
German 10-year bund yields increased three basis points to 2.33 percent, while yields on U.K. and French 10-year debt decreased. U.S. 30-year bond yields rose three points to 2.96 percent after earlier dropping below German counterparts for the first time since 2009.
IMF Role
Finance ministers tonight are holding an initial discussion on channeling ECB loans to cash-strapped euro nations through the International Monetary Fund, aiming to bring the central bank onto the front lines without violating its ban on direct lending to governments, said people familiar with the situation, who declined to be identified because the talks are at an early stage.
Luxembourg Finance Minister Luc Frieden said the European Financial Stability Facility alone won't be able to solve the euro region's debt crisis. The EFSF will need help from the IMF and the European Central bank, Frieden told reporters in Brussels today before a meeting of euro area finance chiefs.
The cost for European banks to fund in dollars rose to the highest level since October 2008 for a fifth day. The three- month cross-currency basis swap, the rate banks pay to convert euro payments into dollars, was 158 basis points below the euro interbank offered rate, from minus 149 basis points yesterday. The gap has widened from as little as minus 8 basis points on May 4.
The MSCI Emerging Markets Index climbed 1 percent. Benchmark gauges for China, South Korea, Taiwan and Indonesia gained more than 1 percent, while indexes in Russia and India dropped. Egypt's EGX-30 Index jumped 5.5 percent, the most since 2009 on a closing basis, after a peaceful first day of parliamentary elections.

PSV winger set for Napoli
– Dries Mertens' father Herman speaking to nieuwsblad.be
Dries sent me a text message saying he expects to go to Naples next week.
There doesn't seem to be anything standing in the way of the move. Dries really wants it.
His girlfriend let slip that they would have preferred to go to London but when a club like Napoli comes knocking, you should not have any doubts. It is a unique opportunity.

Canadians In A Gift-giving Mood But Tightening Their Belts On Holiday Spending: RBC
RBC offers the following tips and secure payment options for holiday spending to help ensure that you stick to your holiday budget while enjoying the spirit of the season:
- Take control by preparing a budget - A budget will help you live within your means, during the holidays and throughout the rest of the year, and avoid unnecessary debt. A Financial Planner can help you put a plan with a budget in place or online budgeting and savings resources available on websites such as www.rbc.com/savingsspot can be of great assistance to help keep holiday spending plans under control. myFinanceTracker is another online customizable financial management tool that will help keep tabs on your monthly spending so you know exactly where your money is going and how to budget properly.
- Use cash and credit wisely - If you plan on using savings for your holiday costs, make your credit card work for you by using it for purchases and then immediately pay off the balance. Many rely on their credit cards for larger purchases but may not use it for everyday shopping instead of using cash. Holiday spending on groceries, gas, restaurants and clothing can add up quickly, but using your card can help you keep track of your expenses and also earn rewards more quickly while taking advantage of a temporary interest-free loan on purchases.
- Shop online with confidence - E-commerce sites are a great way to avoid crowds at the mall. Use the RBC Virtual Visa Debit for shopping online with funds coming directly from your bank account. This is a simple and secure way to make purchases that will be processed over Visa's network, providing the protection of Visa's multiple layers of security including: Visa's Zero Liability Policy, Verified by Visa, E-Promise, AVS (Address Verification Service) and CVV2 (the three-digit code).
- Have someone that's "hard to buy for"? - More secure than cash, RBC Visa Gift Cards can be used anywhere around the world where Visa cards are accepted, including online, giving friends and family more options than traditional store gift cards. RBC Visa Gift Cards are available at all RBC branches.
- Get peace of mind with purchase protection and extended warranty - Take advantage of these insurance features on gifts (e.g. electronics) that RBC credit cards offer. Need help finding the right card? Visit the RBC Advice Centre.

About The RBC Canadian Consumer Outlook IndexThe survey is conducted online via Ipsos Reid's national I-Say Consumer Panel to 3,375 Canadians (540 British Columbia, 540 Alberta, 469 Saskatchewan/ Manitoba, 735 Ontario, 609 Quebec, 482 Atlantic Canada). Weighting was then employed to balance demographics and ensure that the sample's composition reflects that of the adult population according to Census data and to provide results intended to approximate the sample universe. Data collection was October 1 to 10, 2012. The precision of Ipsos Reid polls are calculated using a credibility interval. In this case, the poll is accurate to within ±1.9 percentage points of the entire Canadian population. SOURCE RBC

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Lithium batteries are disposable (primary) batteries that have lithium metal or lithium compounds as an anode. They stand apart from other batteries in their high charge density (long life) and high cost per unit. Depending on the design and chemical compounds used, lithium cells can produce voltages from 1.5 V (same as zinc–carbon battery or alkaline battery) to about 3.7 V.[1] Lithium batteries are widely used in products such as portable consumer electronic devices.
Lithium primary batteries account for 28% of all primary battery sales in Japan but only 1% of all battery sales in Switzerland. In the UK and EU only 0.5% of all battery sales including secondary types are lithium primaries. [2] [3] [4] [5]
The term "lithium battery" refers to a family of different chemistries, comprising many types of cathodes and electrolytes.
The most common type of lithium cell used in consumer applications uses metallic lithium as anode and manganese dioxide as cathode, with a salt of lithium dissolved in an organic solvent.
Another type of lithium cell having a large energy density is the lithium-thionyl chloride cell. Lithium-thionyl chloride batteries are generally not sold to the consumer market, and find more use in commercial/industrial applications, or are installed into devices where the consumer does not replace them. The cell contains a liquid mixture of thionyl chloride (SOCl2) and lithium tetrachloroaluminate (LiAlCl4), which act as the cathode and electrolyte, respectively. A porous carbon material serves as a cathode current collector which receives electrons from the external circuit. Lithium-thionyl chloride batteries are well suited to extremely low-current applications where long life is necessary, such as wireless alarm systems.
|Nominal voltage
|Open-circuit voltage
|Li-MnO2 (Li-Mn, "CR")
|Heat-treated manganese dioxide
|Lithium perchlorate in propylene carbonate and dimethoxyethane
|The most common consumer grade battery, about 80% of the lithium battery market. Uses inexpensive materials. Suitable for low-drain, long-life, low-cost applications. High energy density per both mass and volume. Can deliver high pulse currents. Wide temperature range. With discharge the internal impedance rises and the terminal voltage decreases. Maximum temperature limited to about 60 °C. High self-discharge at high temperatures.
|Thionyl chloride
|Lithium tetrachloroaluminate in thionyl chloride
|Liquid cathode. For low temperature applications. Can operate down to −55 °C, where it retains over 50% of its rated capacity. Negligible amount of gas generated in nominal use, limited amount under abuse. Has relatively high internal impedance and limited short-circuit current. High energy density, about 500 Wh/kg. Toxic. Electrolyte reacts with water. Low-current cells used for portable electronics and memory backup. High-current cells used in military applications. In long storage forms passivation layer on anode, which may lead to temporary voltage delay when put into service. High cost and safety concerns limit use in civilian applications. Can explode when shorted. Underwriters Laboratories require trained technician for replacement of these batteries. Hazardous waste, Class 9 Hazmat shipment.[6]

|Liquid cathode. A variant of the thionyl chloride battery, with 300 mV higher voltage. The higher voltage drops back to 3.5 V soon as the bromine chloride gets consumed during the first 10-20% of discharge. The cells with added bromine chloride are thought to be safer when abused.
|Sulfuryl chloride
|Liquid cathode. Similar to thionyl chloride. Discharge does not result in buildup of elemental sulfur, which is thought to be involved in some hazardous reactions, therefore sulfuryl chloride batteries may be safer. Commercial deployment hindered by tendency of the electrolyte to corrode the lithium anodes, reducing the shelf life. Chlorine is added to some cells to make them more resistant to abuse. Sulfuryl chloride cells give less maximum current than thionyl chloride ones, due to polarization of the carbon cathode. Sulfuryl chloride reacts violently with water, releasing hydrogen chloride and sulfuric acid.[7]
|Sulfur dioxide on teflon-bonded carbon
|Lithium bromide in sulfur dioxide with small amount of acetonitrile
|Liquid cathode. Can operate down to −55 °C and up to +70 °C. Contains liquid SO2 at high pressure. Requires safety vent, can explode in some conditions. High energy density. High cost. At low temperatures and high currents performs better than Li-MnO2. Toxic. Acetonitrile forms lithium cyanide, and can form hydrogen cyanide in high temperatures.[8] Used in military applications.
Addition of bromine monochloride can boost the voltage to 3.9 V and increase energy density.[9]
|Li-(CF)x ("BR")
|Carbon monofluoride
|Lithium tetrafluoroborate in propylene carbonate, dimethoxyethane, and/or gamma-butyrolactone
|Cathode material formed by high-temperature intercalation of fluorine gas into graphite powder. High energy density (250 Wh/kg), 7 year shelf life. Used for low to moderate current applications in memory and clock backup batteries. Very good safety record. Used in aerospace applications, qualified for space since 1976. Used in military applications both terrestrial and marine, and in missiles. Also used in cardiac pacemakers.[10] Maximum temperature 85 °C. Very low self-discharge (<0.5%/year at 60 °C, <1%/yr at 85 °C). Developed in 1970s by Matsushita.[11]
|Iodine that has been mixed and heated with poly-2-vinylpyridine (P2VP)to form a solid organic charge transfer complex.
|a solid monomolecular layer of crystalline Lithium iodide that conducts lithium ions from the anode to the cathode but does not conduct Iodine.[12]
|Solid electrolyte. Very high reliability and low self discharge rate. Used in medical applications that need a long life. Does not generate gas even under short circuit. Solid-state chemistry, limited short-circuit current, suitable only for low-current applications. Terminal voltage decreases with degree of discharge due to precipitation of lithium iodide.
|Silver chromate
|Lithium perchlorate solution
|Very high reliability. Has a 2.6 V plateau after reaching certain percentage of discharge, provides early warning of impending discharge. Developed specifically for medical applications, for example, implanted pacemakers.
|Li-Ag2V4O11, Li-SVO, Li-CSVO
|Silver oxide+vanadium pentoxide (SVO)
|lithium hexafluorophosphate or lithium hexafluoroarsenate in propylene carbonate with dimethoxyethane
|Used in medical applications, like implantable defibrillators, neurostimulators, and drug infusion systems. Also projected for use in other electronics, such as emergency locator transmitters. High energy density. Long shelf life. Capable of continuous operation at nominal temperature of 37 °C.[13] Two-stage discharge with a plateau. Output voltage decreasing proportionally to the degree of discharge. Resistant to abuse.
Addition of copper(II) oxide to the cathode material results in the Li-CSVO variant.
|Copper(II) oxide
|Lithium Perchlorate dissolved in Dioxolane
|Can operate up to 150 °C. Developed as a replacement of zinc-carbon and alkaline batteries. "Voltage up" problem, high difference between open-circuit and nominal voltage. Produced until mid-1990s, replaced by lithium-iron sulfide. Current use limited.
|Copper oxyphosphate
|See Li-CuO
|Copper sulfide
|Lead sulfide and copper sulfide
|Iron sulfide
|Propylene carbonate, dioxolane, dimethoxyethane
|"Lithium-iron", "Li/Fe". used as a replacement for alkaline batteries. See lithium — iron disulfide.
|Iron disulfide
|Propylene carbonate, dioxolane, dimethoxyethane
|"Lithium-iron", "Li/Fe". Used in Energizer lithium cells as a replacement for alkaline zinc-manganese chemistry. Called "voltage-compatible" lithiums. 2.5 times higher lifetime for high current discharge regime than alkaline batteries, better storage life due to lower self-discharge, 10 years storage time. FeS2 is cheap. Cathode often designed as a paste of iron sulfide powder mixed with powdered graphite. Variant is Li-CuFeS2.
|Lead bismuthate
|Replacement of silver-oxide batteries, with higher energy density, lower tendency to leak, and better performance at higher temperatures.
|Bismuth trioxide
|Vanadium pentoxide
|Two discharge plateaus. Low-pressure. Rechargeable. Used in reserve batteries.
|Lithium cobalt oxide
|Lithium nickel cobalt oxide
|Copper chloride
|LiAlCl4 or LiGaCl4 in SO2, a liquid, inorganic, non-aqueous electrolyte.
|Rechargeable. This cell has three voltage plateaus as it discharges (3.3V, 2.9V and 2.5V).[14] Discharging below the first plateau reduces the life of the cell.[14] The complex salt dissolved in SO2 has a lower vapor pressure at room temperature than pure sulfur dioxide[15] making the construction simpler and safer than Li-SO2 batteries.
|Manganese dioxide
|Vanadium pentoxide
|Li–air (Lithium–air battery)
|porous carbon
|organic, aqueous, glass-ceramic (polymer-ceramic composites)
The liquid organic electrolyte is a solution of an ion-forming inorganic lithium compound in a mixture of a high-permittivity solvent (propylene carbonate) and a low-viscosity solvent (dimethoxyethane).
Lithium batteries find application in many long-life, critical devices, such as artificial pacemakers and other implantable electronic medical devices. These devices use specialized lithium-iodide batteries designed to last 15 or more years. But for other, less critical applications such as in toys, the lithium battery may actually outlast the device. In such cases, an expensive lithium battery may not be cost-effective.
Lithium batteries can be used in place of ordinary alkaline cells in many devices, such as clocks and cameras. Although they are more costly, lithium cells will provide much longer life, thereby minimizing battery replacement. However, attention must be given to the higher voltage developed by the lithium cells before using them as a drop-in replacement in devices that normally use ordinary zinc cells.
Lithium batteries also prove valuable in oceanographic applications. While lithium battery packs are considerably more expensive than standard oceanographic packs, they hold up to three times the capacity of alkaline packs. The high cost of servicing remote oceanographic instrumentation (usually by ships) often justifies this higher cost.
Small lithium batteries are very commonly used in small, portable electronic devices, such as PDAs, watches, camcorders, digital cameras, thermometers, calculators, laptop BIOS, communication equipment and remote car locks. They are available in many shapes and sizes, with a common variety being the 3 volt "coin" type manganese variety, typically 20 mm in diameter and 1.6–4 mm thick. The heavy electrical demands of many of these devices make lithium batteries a particularly attractive option. In particular, lithium batteries can easily support the brief, heavy current demands of devices such as digital cameras, and they maintain a higher voltage for a longer period than alkaline cells.
The computer industry's drive to increase battery capacity can test the limits of sensitive components such as the membrane separator, a polyethylene or polypropylene film that is only 20-25 µm thick. The energy density of lithium batteries has more than doubled since they were introduced in 1991. When the battery is made to contain more material, the separator can undergo stress.
Button cell batteries are attractive to small children and often ingested. In the past 20 years, although there has not been an increase in the total number of button cell batteries ingested in a year, researchers have noted a 6.7-fold increase in the risk that an ingestion would result in a moderate or major complication.[16] The primary mechanism of injury with button battery ingestions is the generation of hydroxide ions at the anode. The hydroxide ions result in a chemical burn. Complications include oesophageal strictures, tracheo-oesophageal fistulas, vocal cord paralysis, aorto-oesophageal fistulas, and death. The reasons for the increasing frequency of devastating complications is complex. Public and physician awareness is poor, and many products using button batteries are not child-proofed. In fact, 61.8% of batteries that were ingested by young children were obtained from products. The majority of ingestions are not witnessed; presentations are non-specific; battery voltage has increased; the 20 to 25 mm button battery size are more likely to become lodged at the cricopharyngeal junction; and severe tissue damage can occur in 2 hours. The 3 V, 20 mm lithium battery has been implicated in many of the complications from button battery ingestions by children less than 4 years of age.[17] Button batteries can also cause significant necrotic injury when stuck in the nose or ears.[18]
Regulations for disposal and recycling of batteries vary widely; local governments may have additional requirements over those of national regulations. In the United States, one manufacturer of lithium iron disulfide primary batteries advises that consumer quantities of used cells may be discarded in municipal waste, as the battery does not contain any substances controlled by US Federal regulations. [19] Another manufacturer states that "button" size lithium batteries contain perchlorate, which is regulated as a hazardous waste in California; regulated quantities would not be found in typical consumer use of these cells. [20]
Lithium batteries can provide extremely high currents and can discharge very rapidly when short-circuited. Although this is useful in applications where high currents are required, a too-rapid discharge of a lithium battery can result in overheating of the battery, rupture, and even explosion. Lithium-thionyl chloride batteries are particularly susceptible to this type of discharge. Consumer batteries usually incorporate over current or thermal protection or vents in order to prevent explosion.
Because of the above risks, shipping and carriage of lithium batteries is restricted in some situations, particularly transport of lithium batteries by air.
The United States Transportation Security Administration announced restrictions effective January 1, 2008 on lithium batteries in checked and carry-on luggage. The rules forbid lithium batteries not installed in a device from checked luggage and restrict them in carry-on luggage by total lithium content.[21]
Australia Post prohibited transport of lithium batteries in air mail during 2010.[22]
UK regulations for the transport of lithium batteries were amended[23] by the National Chemical Emergency Centre in 2009.
In late 2009, at least some postal administrations restricted airmail shipping (including EMS) of lithium batteries, lithium-ion batteries and products containing these ( such as laptops and cell phones). Among these countries are Hong Kong,[24] USA[25] and Japan.[26]
Unused lithium batteries provide a convenient source of lithium metal for use as a reducing agent in methamphetamine labs. Some jurisdictions have passed laws to restrict lithium battery sales or asked businesses to make voluntary restrictions in an attempt to help curb the creation of illegal meth labs. In 2004 Wal-Mart stores were reported to limit the sale of disposable lithium batteries to three packages in Missouri and four packages in other states.[27] High demand for lithium batteries for use in power-hungry devices such as digital cameras has conflicted with such restrictions in stores.

CSC UK's Smart Business blog
Welcome to CSC UK's Smart Business blog. Hear our experts' views on topical stories and share with us your thoughts on how technology can help organisations achieve their objectives3.
- There's a great quote which was shared on Linkedin recently: "A User Interface is like a joke: if you have to explain it, it's not that good". And with most devices, the ones with well designed user-interfaces, tend to be the ones we like using.
- The Smart Home market is a big business and it's growing globally, projected to reach $71.8bn by 2017. The Internet of Things appears to have reached our homes with a vast array of devices to control appliances, unlock doors, detect intruders, dim our lights and control our heating. But how much of this actually relates to Smart Metering?
- In biological psychology, "Awareness", is defined as a perception and cognitive reaction to a condition or event. Realising that something is bad for you, or costing you money, for example, can cause action to be taken to prevent it from happening. How can you stop putting on weight? Becoming more aware of how much saturated fat and calories certain foods contain will make you think twice about putting them into your shopping basket.
- Star Trek (The Original Series) my favourite TV show of all time. Wednesday night at 7.10pm on BBC2 was the highlight of my week when my parent's new colour TV blasted out Alexander Courage's memorable theme tune.
- I've been keenly interested in the BMW i3 since its announcement as a concept at the 2011 Frankfurt car show. Hailed as an 'urban electric vehicle' (meaning it can't travel far) having finally had a chance to see one at my local dealer, as far as specifications and coolness factor goes, it's very impressive .
- For most people that question entails locking the doors, switching all the downstairs lights out, turning the TV off and turning the heating down. For others it also includes feeding the cat, filling the dishwasher up and emptying the bin. What a chore!
- What's the ideal source of energy? One that is clean, perpetual, reliable, safe, abundant and cheap of course. Can you think of one? Fossil fuels are dirty. And they are becoming harder to find and harder to extract. And more expensive. While statistically, nuclear is safe, Chernobyl and Fukushima said otherwise.
- The IoT finally gains momentum…. though one could argue that it's been around since 1991 when RFID was seen as a prerequisite to enable the identification and integration of everyday objects.
- How are you planning for the digital revolution? For some it's a rapid evolution, for others a true revolution while some might still say it's passing them by. So what are the challenges, threats and opportunities that the digital revolution offers?
- Ever since the idea of Smart Metering was conceived, there's been a lot of discussion, dissent and fear of energy retailers having access to personal information. Taken to extremes, some customers have been arrested because they have objected to the installation of what they have perceived as a 'surveillance device'.

Special Committee Cautions Dell Stockholders Regarding Carl Icahn's Misleading Statements About Appraisal Rights
"Mr. Icahn is asking Dell stockholders to vote against the certainty of $13.65 per share in cash to pursue a highly speculative appraisal remedy. He is also asking them, if the merger does not occur, to cede full control of Dell's board to nominees of the Icahn group and then to hope for a highly leveraged recapitalization transaction that he himself admits may never come to fruition.
"The Special Committee urges stockholders not to be misled by Mr. Icahn's characterization of the appraisal option and to consider their options with great care, and continues to recommend that shareholders vote FOR the $13.65 all cash merger promptly by telephone or internet to be sure their votes are received in time to be counted at Dell's Special Meeting to be held on Thursday, July 18 at 8:00 a.m. CDT."

Spring 2012 UH Manoa BSN Applicants - page 5
So who else is anxious to hear back from the nursing dept!... Read More
- 0Oct 29, '11 by servealohaHey guys. I just my rejection letter .
I hope you guys the best. Only 55 applicants were accepted .
- 0Oct 29, '11 by jujubees1Don't give up servealoha! Keep trying. I know you will get in!
To my great surprise, I received my provisional acceptance letter today. They just need to receive my grades for Chem 151 that I am taking this semester. I nearly fell down on my knees and cried right by the mailbox. Keep an eye out everyone! Your letter should be coming soon. I wish everyone the best of luck!
- 0Oct 29, '11 by jujubees1Keep trying hcs808. The new program for KCC sounds really good. It would be a great way to save money and you would have your RN before you get to UH. I kinda wish I could go that route but it would take me even longer as I would have to redo my science classes as they are expired for KCC. Luckily, they were not expired for UH.
I received my letter in a regular envelope. It was a little thicker though as it had other paperwork that I need to turn in. I have to let them know by Nov. 18 if I accept or not and also send in $200 as a deposit if I do accept. I am going to do it on Mon. so I don't forget!
Good luck to everyone!
- 0Oct 30, '11 by jujubees1Thank you aukei04.
My stats are:
pGPA: 4.0
cGPA: 3.5
Science: 93
Math: 97
Verbal: 97
I did apply to MEPN, though, for Fall 2011 and I didn't get it. I think my bachelor's GPA was too low. They didn't count my post-BA classes/grades. I was crazy with my BA and took 6 classes each semester, full load during summers and worked while doing a double major. I wish I would have paid attention to my GPA back then. I think I rushed just to finish college. Sigh...
Keep trying. You will get there. Don't give up. I was so discouraged but figured I would try for UH's BSN program.
- 0Oct 30, '11 by SNSWTRCongratulations to those who got in. Be prepared to work hard. There's down time and time for work or fun, but exams and paper due dates have a tendency to bunch up. Just as you're breathing a sigh of relief after turning in a paper or finishing up an exam, another due date is breathing down your back. And eventually, you'll have to forget about reading. After a while, it becomes very focused--as in for exam prep--because you have so much other stuff to do. Have fun with APA =). Be ready for lots of group projects, too. Nursing school is very time consuming. If you thought prereqs were tough, I have to say that nursing school is tougher.
If you didn't get in, don't give up. Use the time to improve your grades, improve your NLN score, or finish up other classes required for graduation. Use it as an opportunity to beef up on your writing, A&P, and pharm. Take a CNA class, if possible. It'll only cover a few basic skills, but they go kind of fast when it comes to skills. At least you won't have to worry about learning some skills during the first few weeks of school. Also, get some APA templates going as writing in APA style is very tedious. They ask for all your papers to be written using APA format.
- 0Oct 30, '11 by NeekoDangoI got a rejection letter, i guess my C-GPA brought me down. I did apply with 2 classes currently enrolled so maybe that was an issue as well. I'm still planning on applying for Fall 2012.
Does anyone know if their is a wait list/alternate list for UH manoa and if anyone was put on it already?
Congrats to everyone who got in!

2 rounds of Clomid,

1 miracle BFP while waiting to start IVF!
~High five to my eBFF Chloe!~
DD loves art supplies in general, but the Color Wonder markers and paper are luckily one of her favorites. I love them because I can let her use them unsupervised on the floor. She still has trouble getting the caps back on (and off sometimes) so she often comes to get help, but she'll let me be doing something else and just pause to click a cap before she goes off again.
She is also currently obsessed with both her Princess and ds's Cars Block of Books. We read those all.day.long.
Anything outside! She's been cooped up so long that she loves to be outside. Playing with the water table, going in her baby pool, going for a walk, going to the playground...anything. I'm looking for a climber for our backyard.
It is tough when the weather is bad, she doesn't seem to understand that it won't be fun when it is raining and cold.

Glucomannan questions
What kind does everyone use? Is one brand better than another? Also, I read that some people have constipation with it...anyone have difficulties with that?
I just bought the NOW brand on Netrition. It is the first that I have purchased, but it is good so far. I will tell you tomorrow if I have any problems with it... I am eating my first full batch of it as I type!
I use the Konjac brand. It doesn't cause constipation for me, but if I use too much (same with the shiritake noodles) it makes me a little gassy. I guess it's from the fiber?
Thanks guys...I will look at both...and Ms. Woods, I know I have told you before, but again, you are doing so awesome! Love your avi...looking good, girl! Huge hooray for you, you should be really proud!
I haven't noticed it causing a bathroom issue, but I only use maybe a teaspoon of the powder every 3-4 days.
I have the absolute opposite problem. Glu runs right thru me--oy.
I use Konjac as well. Though I have laid off of it for a while...felt very heavy there for a week or so and suspected my gluc was the culprit. Once I get myself firmly into the next decade I will bring it back again in small amounts, just to see what happens. I really want to be able to use it, as it's so helpful in keeping calories low for lots of volume.
I've used the Konjac brand, and a much less expensive brand I found online - I would NEVER order the cheap one again! It has the same unpleasant odor as the liquid in the shirataki noodles, and it doesn't thicken as well. I ordered two pounds and it came "packaged" in a plastic bag tied off with a twisty. My "bargain" ended up in the trash, so no savings!

Facebook: If I'm So Smart, Why Do I Feel So Stupid?
For every investor who arrived too early to the Facebook party, there were investors like me that arrived right on time. Only now I'm getting the sense that I might have left too early before the real fun began.
Bottom LineIn recent emails that there were quite a few readers that not only simulated my recent trade but possibly (as I am) are feeling a great deal of regret. To those readers let me offer my sincerest apologies, as I feel that I have let you down. I hope to make up to you somewhere down the road.

PETALING JAYA: She was the person he knew he could always turn to for undivided support.
She was also always there to provide a friendly ear and the wisdom as well as guidance from her years of experience as an activist.
For Federation of Malaysian Consumers Associations (Fomca) president Datuk Dr Marimuthu Nadason, that is the Irene Fernandez he will always remember.
"If I could look to anyone for guaranteed support, that person would be Irene Fernandez," Marimuthu told theantdaily.
Calling her his mentor, Marimuthu said he first met Fernandez when he started out in the consumer movement in the 1970s.
"She was the executive secretary for the Selangor and Federal Territory Consumers Association then and I was just starting out. I received a lot of support and guidance from her," he said.
Asked what made Fernandez so special, Marimuthu said: "She was consistent. She believed in a struggle and just kept on moving until she saw results. For her, it's about people, justice and fairness.
"She always told me to keep on believing in what I do until I achieve results, especially if it involved bringing about justice."
Fernandez passed away on March 31 at the age of 67. She would have turned 68 on April 18.
She had been hospitalised at the Serdang Hospital for heart problems since March 25.
"Her organs were all fine but her heart stopped. The doctors tried their best to resuscitate her.
"Irene was very brave and courageous and as I speak to you now, I can see that her face is so serene, so calm," Fernandez's sister Josie was reported to have said.
Fernandez's husband Joseph Paul and their three children were reportedly at her bedside when she passed away.
The veteran activist was on her way to hear the findings of the coalition for clean and fair elections' (Bersih) tribunal when she faced breathing difficulties.
Fernandez was a lady who wore many hats.
Besides being a wife and mother, she was the founder of migrant rights NGO Tenaganita, the chairperson of the Pesticide Action Network Asia and the Pacific, a member of the Steering Committee of the Asian Rural Women's Coalition, the Coalition of Agricultural Workers International, Asian Peasant Coalition, and the People's Coalition on Food Sovereignty as well as the director of Caram-Asia and vice-chairperson of the International Migrant Alliance.
Fernandez was also reportedly among the founders of the Asia Pacific Forum on Women, Law and Development and a former executive member of the Committee on Asian Women.
In 2005, she was awarded the Right to Livelihood Award which is considered to be an alternate Nobel prize.
This is in addition to other international awards to her name which included the Human Rights Watch Award in 1996, the Amnesty International Award in 1998, the International PEN Award in 2000 and the Jonathan Mann Award in 2004.
Not one to be cowed by pressure, Fernandez also gained international attention when she became the subject of reportedly the country's longest criminal trial after being charged with publishing falsehoods in a report on migrant detention centres in 1996.
In 2003, she was convicted and sentenced to a year's jail but this was overturned on appeal in 2008.
In 2012, it was reported that Fernandez was once again investigated for her activism when a sedition probe was launched over an interview about migrant rights with an Indonesian newspaper.
Towards the end of her life, Fernandez was often wheelchair bound because of osteoarthritis but still never failed to attend meetings or events that were close to her heart.
The funeral service for Fernandez will be held at 3pm at the Church of Divine Mercy in Shah Alam on April 3.
As Marimuthu so aptly put it: "She is beyond words. It's not going to be easy for another Irene Fernandez to be found. She will be sorely missed."

I have a Shield 9mm. I have probably put 1000 rounds through it. I have been extremely satisfied....until yesterday.
I'm still fairly new to firearms.
I went to my local indoor range to practice. I took 300 rounds with me. Some white box and a bulk pack of UMC (250 rounds). I call it bulk but it was actually 5 trays of 50 in a yellow box. All 115gr fmj.
I have 3 magazines and an ulplula (for reference to about how fast i could move)
I burned through the first 250 rounds in about 35-40 minutes. Then when I got into the last tray of UMC I had 4 FTE in like 35 shots.
Part of me thinks that the ammo was a "special cause" since I can sort of stratify exactly when the issue cropped up. I also hate blaming FTE on ammo BUT...the shields track record for FTE has been superb.
The nature of the FTE was odd (to me). I would classify the FTE into 2 categories.
1. They werent exactly stove piping. I suppose it would be similar to a stove pipe. I have attached an image.
I had 2 of these style.
2. I didnt get a picture of the second style unfortunately. The casing was still resting inside the barrel but it looked like it had been extracted maybe 4/5 of the way. So it was basically sitting on top of the next round to be taken to battery (hope im using term correctly) when the slide returned. This caused the slide to lock in position, i'm assuming because the follower couldnt advance the next round from the magazine. This condition was VERY hard to clear. I couldnt pull the slide back by hand until i removed the magazine and the magazine was very difficult to get out. Basically worst possible condition if i was in combat.
I have considered the following:
a. the firearm looks like it is in good shape (to my amateur eyes) when i inspect it. The extractor shows no unusual signs of wear or damage.
b. it's possible that I was limp wristing since I had been shooting more than normal for me at one time and I was actually drawing and holstering some in between shots trying to learn the technique. I've never had a limp wrist shot and feel like i have it pretty firm. But i also never had trained like i was, i.e. draw, safety off while acquiring, 2 shots, holster, repeat. I could see where I may have gotten sloppy/tired near the end.
c. could the ammo have a "light" load that could have caused the weapon not to cycle correctly?
d. my reaction to a FTE was awful.
I'm very new and hate to postulate with so little personal knowledge.
I will hit the range again soon but I was just out of time and ammo that day to try more tests.
Now I am questioning my primary when 2 days ago i was 100% confident.
Thanks in advance

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.

Tennesseans would be allowed to openly carry guns without a permit under a bill passed Tuesday in the state Senate.
If the House also approves the bill, carry permits would only be needed for concealed weapons, thereby making it legal for most anyone to walk around with a gun proudly displayed in a holster.
In years past, lawmakers fought long and hard over details that seem small by comparison, like whether gun owners can be fired for having one in their car outside their workplace. This spring though, the open carry proposal flew largely under the radar, getting less than 20 minutes of discussion in Senate committees, before passing a floor vote 25 to 2 on Tuesday.
Senator Mae Beavers says more than two dozen states let people carry guns openly, without a permit, including in cars:
"People without handgun carry permits within these states regularly and frequently carry handguns openly and within a vehicle. Such activity has not caused increased danger to public safety or resulted in increased crime."
Before reaching a floor vote in the state House, the bill still needs approval from a committee that postponed it without discussion yesterday. Open-carry backers worry it's a tactic by what they called "weak-kneed" Republicans to stall and kill the proposal.

Samuel Merritt University ELMSN Program!?
- 0Sep 15, '12 by driven2012Hi Everyone,
I was hoping to connect with future students that are applying to the ELMSN program at Samuel Merritt University this Fall 2012? I am applying to the ELMSN-Case Management and thought it would be nice to meet everyone and keep each other updated and offer advice! I know it is crunch time right now as applications are due by Nov. 1 (for Oakland campus) but if anyone is interested in chatting feel free to respond! I saw a previous thread where applicants talked throughout the admission process and it seems like a great way to get to know fellow potential students! Good luck everyone
- 0Sep 15, '12 by JustBeachyNurse, LPNmoved to CA State Nursing Program forum to elicit further response
- 0Oct 31, '12 by driven2012Hi nice to meet you as well. I'm surprised more people have not responded to the thread but maybe that's due to the application deadline coming up. Maybe there will be a larger following after Nov. 1st? Good luck to you all I just turned my app in today! Whew a little pressure is off.

4 Stocks Rising on Unusual Volume
Titan Machinery
Titan Machinery (TITN) owns and operates a network of agricultural and construction equipment stores in the U.S. and Europe. This stock is trading up 3.2% at $20.96 in recent trading.
Today's Volume: 1 millionAverage Volume: 643,470 Volume % Change: 181% Shares of TITN are moving notably higher today after Standpoint Research initiated coverage on the stock with a buy rating and $28 price target. >>5 Rocket Stocks Ready for Blastoff From a technical perspective, TITN is moving higher here with above-average volume. This stock has been hammered by the sellers during the last two months, with shares falling from $32.65 to its recent low of $19.07. During that move, shares of TITN have consistently made lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. That said, TITN has now pushed into oversold territory, since its current relative strength index rating is around 30. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in TITN as long as it's trending above its recent gap down day high of $21.71 with strong upside volume flows. I would consider any upside volume day that registers near or above 643,470 shares. On the flip side, I would avoid TITN or look for short-biased trades if it fails to get into that gap, and then drops back below its recent low of $19.07 with heavy volume.
