It was the 12th anniversary of FirstRain India and all the Rainmakers contributed to make it an unforgettable event.The celebration started with a cake cutting ceremony inside the office premises and then we all headed to the party venue "The Woods." The sunny winter day, pool side view and non-stop great food added to the mood. The fun started with games among the six event teams followed by a treasure hunt. Funny props were very popular throughout the event. We were amazed to see how each team performed in the individual performance round. I must say we do have great talent at FirstRain. Singing, mimicry of FR superstars along with enacting live moments from the office added color to the celebration.
After the well-spent hours in the sun with games and performances, it was the time to get recharged again so we all headed to the party hall. The evening was a BLAST! Awesome variety of drinks and snacks aside, there was great music which very quickly moved everyone to the dance floor. The energy was amazing and no one seemed in any hurry to head out for dinner. Finally, FirstRain India MD, Aparna Gupta had to announce a final 15-minute dance session with everyone on the floor before dinner. The dinner and dessert did not disappoint at all either. It was a perfect end to a rocking party.The full day event brought us a great opportunity to interact with each other in an altogether different setting and also highlighted the hidden talent within each of us apart from performing best at our workstations. Each of us was handed a memento—a soft photo frame with a group photograph from the event.
We had a very exciting day at the office in December. FirstRain India celebrated a group of employees who have been with FirsRain for over seven years! Each employee was honored for their commitment and hard work with a bouquet of flowers and a special lunch.
The event was a complete surprise to most of the team. On December 19th, around lunchtime, Chitra, our HR Manager announced a list of people who each were given a bouquet of flowers from Aparna Gupta, our India MD. The rest of the team really had no idea why they were receiving flowers until we suddenly looked around and realized who was being recognized. All of the people called out, had been at FirstRain the longest.
The lunch was very special, full of memories and nostalgia. We went through the hard times and the good times, but most importantly—the fun we have had through the journey of building FirstRain to what it is today. Interestingly enough, the majority of the recognized joined FirstRain as single people and now most are married with kids! They have been through many different roles, working with different managers throughout the company and truly have grown over the years.In the midst of our tight work schedules, releasing deliverables, promising product outlook and anticipation of FirstRain becoming REALLY successful, this came up as a great surprise. Congratulations to all of you for being a part of the core team of FirstRain and thanks a ton FirstRain for making us feel special!

Current and future Rainmakers work in perfect harmony
Who is the better programmer- father or son?
Going home a winner!At FirstRain India we like to host numerous events that every Rainmaker can particiate in. We divide everyone into event teams (a lottery system) comprising folks from different departments, getting together to participate in fun, as well as competitive events, throughout the year. This allows people from different departments to come together and team up to excel in an entirely different setting. The events range from quiz competitions to ramp walks to decorate your bay and the events culminate with a prize trophy to the winning team at the annual offsite event. The new teams were created this summer and the first task assigned to them was to create a name, logo and punch line for their team. Finally, June ended with a small party in our cafeteria for all the employees who had June birthdays. All the June birthdays gathered around the cake (including myself) and so a case for me of have your cake and eat it too!

The Ghost (original 2007; edition 2007)

Work details
The Ghost by Robert Harris (2007)
Compact | Rate recommendations
A pageturner who got away with it, but nothing more
(Note: I'm using the true ranking system here--I gave it 2 stars because it was OK. Not great, not terrible--OK.)
This is the story of a man who's recruited to "finish" the memoirs of the former British Prime Minister after the previous ghostwriter has died under mysterious circumstances. Needless to say, he gets way more than he bargained for...
There are only a few cases in which the movie is at least as good as the book. In this case, the movie was better. I understand why the author never specifies the name or gives any description of the writer (ghost, get it?), but it gives the narrative a detached quality despite being written in first person. In addition, the political intrigue is not well rendered--it's cliched cloak-and-dagger, and it would have benefited from some fleshing out of the simplistic plot. For example, it would have been nice to see a couple examples of the villain in action or communicating with coconspirators. (Being vague so as to avoid spoilers.)
If you're looking for a complex, far-flung Ludlumesque caper, this isn't it. But it's a perfectly fine airplane book.
I love the page turning quality of this book. Some of the plot unfolds as expected and just as you are getting comfortable with the ride, you take an unexpected turn.(I love the use of the SatNav to take the character on his journey).
Although the film does come close to the book, I felt the ending of the book was better. I didn't see the ending, although I was quite certain where we were going - in the end I was wrong.
Robert Harris was asked if he had had any difficult with getting the legal team at the publishers to agree to the text, at the Oxford Literary Festival - he said that know he could and would be successfully sued if any politician took it to court, however he didn't think that would happen - it didn't.
Lovely flowing prose.
Retired Prime Minister of Britain's writing assistant to his memoire/autobiography washes up dead on the shores of Martha's Vineyard - he is replaced by a non political ghost writer. Secrets unfold and the accidental drowning now appears more like foul play. The Race is on to discover who had something big enough to hide that murder was the answer? Amidst a front page political scandal, the ghost tries to unravel the truth.
I enjoyed Harris's first novel, Fatherland, and adored his second, Enigma; I can't quite work out why it's taken me so long to read another. Whatever, the wait was worth it.
Our nameless protagonist/narrator is called in as ghostwriter for the memoirs of a recently retired British Prime Minister who is Not Tony Bliar: you know he's Not Tony Bliar because his name is Adam Lang. However, this PM is widely loathed in the UK, not least because he was craven poodle to a war-criminal US Administration that invaded a Middle Eastern country for corrupt reasons; bells might be ringing, no? Because the Brits have come to hate his guts, Adam Lang and his wife Ruth (who is Not Cherie), plus entourage, are holed up in Martha's Vineyard. Our hero flies across to join them and prepares to do his stuff; but then he stumbles across the notes and documentation used by his predecessor in the job, who was mysteriously drowned. There are conniptions galore and lots of wonderfully catty observations from our narrator until it becomes evident to all that Adam Lang was a CIA plant, the most successful of all such moles placed into the UK political structure by the shady organization. It's a great conspiracy theory, but, evident or not, is it in fact the final truth? Our narrator discovers that, no, it isn't . . .
Gotta confess I found the conspiracy theory pretty convincing.
This is a spiffy book at every level: it functions well as a page-turning thriller, you bet; and it's a wonderfully biting, often laugh-out-loud funny piece of social/political satire.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0099527499, Paperback)Britain's former prime minister is holed up in a remote, ocean-front house in America, struggling to finish his memoirs, when his long-term assistant drowns. A professional ghostwriter is sent out to rescue the project - a man more used to working with fading rock stars and minor celebrities than ex-world leaders. The ghost soon discovers that his distinguished new client has secrets in his past that are returning to haunt him - secrets with the power to kill. Robert Harris is once again at his gripping best with the most controversial new thriller of the decade.
(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:38:30 -0400)
"Dashing, captivating Adam Lang was Britain's longest serving - and most controversial - prime minister of the last half century, whose career ended in tatters after he sided with America in an unpopular war on terror. Now, after stepping down in disgrace, Lang is hiding out in wintry Martha's Vineyard to finish his much sought-after, potentially explosive memoir, for which he accepted one of history's largest cash advances. But the project runs aground when his ghostwriter suddenly and mysteriously disappears and later washes up, dead, on the island's deserted shore.""Enter our hero - Lang's new ghostwriter - cynical, mercenary, and quick with a line of deadpan humor. Accustomed to working with fading rock stars and minor celebrities, he jumps at the chance to be the new ghost of Adam Lang's memoirs, especially as it means a big payday. At once he flies to Lang's remote location in America to finish the book in the seclusion of a luxurious estate, but it doesn't take him long to realize he has made a fatal error in judgment. The state of affairs is grim enough when the ghost begins to unearth the bone-chilling circumstances of his predecessor's death. And before long, he discovers that the ex-prime minister is not just a charismatic politician who made a few mistakes. He's a dark, tortured man with haunting secrets in his past - secrets with the power to alter world politics. Secrets with the power to kill."--BOOK JACKET.General Adult. Having served as Great Britains longest-enduring prime minister, Adam Lang accepts a large cash advance to write a tell-all memoir of his life and controversial political career, an effort for which he hires a ghostwriter who uncovers dangerous secrets about the former leaders term. 250,000 first printing.… (more)

The word "Taizé" may be unfamiliar to some. For many people, the name "Taizé" evokes a certain style of singing that has become popular in more and more churches, retreat centers, campus religious groups, and even seminaries. For some the word also suggests retreats and gatherings which attract large numbers of young adults. Still others are aware that Taizé is in fact an ecumenical community located in a small village in eastern France. This community has produced some of the most beautiful and moving music that has ever been composed for participation by the whole community of faith (congregation, choir, and clergy).
The liturgy for these services originated with the Taizé community founded in France in 1940. This community is an ecumenical, intentional community with a twofold purpose: to seek communion with God through personal prayer and the beauty of community prayer; and also be a leaven of peace and trust in the midst of humanity. A traditional Taizé service includes listening to God though simple, meditative songs, scripture, prayer and silence, in the beauty of the Westminster Sanctuary.
6:00 p.m. - Service (Sanctuary)
6:40 p.m. - Light Supper ($6.00 in Fellowship Hall;
no reservations required)
Wednesdays during October
5:00 - 5:50 p.m.
The Four Loves
Led by Dr. Richard Baker
(West Parlor)
Order me in my loves, O Lord, order me in my loves—so the famous prayer of St. Augustine. As Augustine saw it, we cannot help but love; it is part of what makes us human. But it is all too easy for our love to go wrong: for us to love the wrong things, in the wrong way, and worst of all, to the exclusion of loving God. Using C.S. Lewis' The Four Loves, this series of classes will consider the four kinds of love--storge (affection), philia (friendship), eros (romantic love), and agape (charity)—and how God orders them rightly.
The class will start at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday
nights in October before the Taizé service.
12:10 - Service (Sanctuary)
12:40 - Lunch ($6.00 in Fellowship Hall;
no reservations required)
6:00 p.m. - Service (Sanctuary)

There's a new prescription card that county health departments are giving out that could save you money on your medicine.
County officials say the discount drug card saves you about 20 percent off prescriptions that your insurance won't cover and it's something everyone can use.
"There's no age limit, qualifications, enrollment, sign-up. We can give one to anyone that requests one," said Mark Hensley with the Laurel County Health Department.
The prescription drug card is just now being made available in counties throughout Eastern Kentucky and many local pharmacies are participating. The prescription drug card is available in the following counties: Adair, Allen, Anderson, Ballard, Barren, Bath, Boone, Bourbon, Boyd, Boyle, Bracken, Breathitt, Breckinridge, Bullitt, Butler, Caldwell, Calloway, Carlisle, Carroll, Carter, Christian, Clark, Clay, Crittenden, Cumberland, Edmonson, Estill, Fleming, Floyd, Franklin, Gallatin, Garrard, Grant, Graves, Green, Greenup, Hancock, Harlan, Harrison, Hart, Henderson, Henry, Hickman, Hopkins, Jackson, Jefferson, Jessamine, Johnson, Knott, Knox, Larue, Laurel, Lee, Lewis, Lincoln, Livingston, Logan, Lyon, Madison, Magoffin, Marion, Marshall, Martin, Mason, McCracken, McLean, Meade, Menifee, Mercer, Metcalfe, Monroe, Montgomery, Morgan, Muhlenberg, Ohio, Owen, Pendleton, Powell, Pulaski, Robertson, Rockcastle, Rowan, Russell, Scott, Shelby, Simpson, Spencer, Taylor, Todd, Trigg, Trimble, Warren, Washington, Wayne, Webster, Whitley, Wolfe, Woodford

American Queen Steamboat Company purchased American Empress (formerly Majestic America Line's Empress of the North) in 2013 and completely refurbished the vessel, officially launching it in spring 2014. The paddlewheel boat is the largest sailing the rivers of the Pacific Northwest.
The refurbishment was a dramatic overhaul; public spaces and cabins got new carpet, paint, wallpaper, lighting and general updating. décor, decidedly Victorian with ornate furniture, floral carpeting, brass, frosted glass lampshades, lace curtains and elegant wallpaper, feels rich and elegant. Step onboard, and you'll be transported to a time when steamboats were a regular sight on America's rivers.
Yet the ship's surroundings feature contemporary influences. The Astoria Dining Room is sleek and light-filled with plenty of two-tops and the newly added River Grill offers a bistro-like experience. Still while American Empress is more accurately described as a steamboat without steam, there's no missing the iconic red paddlewheel.
Because the boat visits ports in Washington and Oregon, food and beverages onboard are locally sourced, a real highlight for fans of fresh seafood, up-and-coming wineries and craft beer. The food is generally excellent, both simple and familiar but mostly prepared to perfection. Service is friendly and knowledgeable.
Itineraries are designed for passengers who love history and wine, and many of the excursions are included in the price of the fare. Port towns generally are small, meaning passengers can explore as part of the included hop-on, hop-off bus tours or on their own by bike or on foot. Premium options are available for a fee, but we thought they were worth the price (some in the range of about $59 per person) because they were more immersive. With the premium options, you'll get closer to the history and wild beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Either way, you'll follow in the footsteps of explorers Lewis and Clark and perhaps sample some of the wines Oregon and Washington offer.
American Queen Steamboat Company had great success with its alfresco Front Porch on fleetmate American Queen, so much so, it brought the concept to American Empress, dubbing the venue the River Grill. There, eating and drinking is combined with the great outdoors in an open-air concept that makes this the spot for socializing and sightseeing. Likewise, the Paddle Wheel Lounge, with its sophisticated lodge vibe, is a quiet retreat during the day that picks up speed at night when live vocals and piano set the mood.
Passengers onboard American Empress are mostly Americans in the 60-plus age range. They're well traveled history buffs who are fond of wine. English-speaking international travelers from the U.K. and Australia also comprise a small percentage of passengers. While parents and their adult children show up occasionally, young families and their children are rare.
Dress onboard American Empress falls squarely into the country club casual category. During the day, passengers wear what's comfortable for exploring: jeans, T-shirts, sweaters, sweatshirts, sneakers and rain jackets (it is, after all, the Pacific Northwest). The ship will provide umbrellas on rainy days.
At night, men tend to wear dress slacks or khakis with button-down or polo-style shirts and sweaters. While some men wear jackets, ties are rare. For women, dresses, skirts, dress pants or capris along with casual blouses or sweaters are the norm. Formal wear isn't required as there are no elegant nights onboard.
Gratuities are not included in the cruise fare; $16.50 per person per day will be automatically charged to passenger onboard accounts. A 15 percent surcharge is automatically added to all drink purchase. There is no charge for room service, but a tip of $1 or $2 for the delivery is appreciated. Gratuities for tour and excursion operators are not included in the cruise fare and therefore are at the discretion of each passenger.
My husband and I recently enjoyed a hassle-free, drama-free truly enjoyable Columbia River cruise aboard the American Empress. I'll concede that some of the 'fabulousness' I attribute to this trip was to due to luck. The weather was lovely, the ...continue
Let's begin at the beginning. We stayed the first night at the Davenport Hotel in Spokane. This beautiful hotel, a gem in downtown Spokane, has been restored to its former glory. It was opulent in every respect, a fun way to begin the cruise. Not ...continue
The difficult aspect of this review is to be accurate and objective, without sounding like a company shill. My wife and I were on the Sept. 20, 2014 cruise from Portland (Vancouver) to Clarkston.
Of course, no voyage is perfect, so ...continue

Peace Out 2013
2013 was a spectacular year, I am a little sad to see it go. But I appreciate the time to reflect on the past, plan the future, and use the new year as a reset button. Besides, there are a lot of great things ahead in 2014. No specific resolutions for me, though I really love these combined approaches to New Year's resolutions. First, assign a theme to your year. Next, define measurable goals to manage it. A good plan for making and keeping those resolutions. A few specific things I hope to tackle, breaking most of these bad tech habits, keeping up on my reading, and getting back to my regular postings here.
Happy New Year!

I would strongly suggest you bring a handheld unit pre-loaded with the correct charts, that you are familiar with it's operation before you go.
That said, the only time we actually turned on our handheld was the passage from Virgin Gorda to Anegada, and back. That was just to keep track of our course over ground to ensure got to the entrance to the harbor without finding the edge of the reef. The rest of the time we simple did visual navigation, with a touch of dead reckoning thrown in. We never used the GPS built in to the boat.
bringing a GPS unit you are comfortable with and familiar with it's operation is important as a piece of safety equipment, but should not be your sole navigation tool.

CheckConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf.
The crystal structure of the conserved core of HIV-1 Nef has been determined in complex with the SH3 domain of a mutant Fyn tyrosine kinase (a single amino acid substitution, Arg-96 to isoleucine), to which Nef binds tightly. The conserved PxxP sequence motif of Nef, known to be important for optimal viral replication, is part of a polyproline type II helix that engages the SH3 domain in a manner resembling closely the interaction of isolated peptides with SH3 domains. The Nef-SH3 structure also reveals how high affinity and specificity in the SH3 interaction is achieved by the presentation of the PxxP motif within the context of the folded structure of Nef.

The Payza platform allows for online payments to be processed and funds to be transferred via the internet between users who have registered for the service (Payza members). For personal users, it is a method for transferring money internationally and a platform for the purchase of goods and services online. For merchants, Payza is an online business management tool which they can use to process payments, issue invoices and make payouts.
Payza is a money transmitter agent with offices in London, New York City, Montreal, Mumbai, Dhaka, Moscow, and Stockholm.[2]
Payza's suite of ecommerce payment solutions are available in the form of Saas, or Software as a Service.[3] This enables corporations or entities already licensed in their operational jurisdictions the rights to use Payza.com as their online payment transaction provider, customizable to both customer needs and local requirements.
MH Pillars Ltd, a UK-based advanced payments consultancy, acquired the strategic assets of AlertPay (Alert Services Inc., CANADA)[4] and launched the Payza.com platform in May 2012. In July 2012, the company announced that Alastair Graham would become the new Chief Executive Officer for Payza, a new position for the company.[5]
Payza targets markets in developing countries and other local areas in which access to online payments services is limited.[6]
The company's mission statement states Payza's intent to provide "affordable and convenient payment methods to under-serviced markets, and [connects] the global marketplace with emerging economies.".[7] Payza, unlike many large payment processors, supports remittances – the transfer of money by a foreign worker to his or her home country. Remittances play a large part in the economies of developing and transition countries – they constitute the second largest financial inflow in much of the developing world.[8]
Payza offers its services in more that 190 countries, in both developed and developing marketplaces, though not all of its services are available in all marketplaces in which they operate.[9]
In early 2012, Payza began operating in Bangladesh, in collaboration with Bangladesh-based Casada Technology, a provider of consumer electronics and digital signage. Payza's target customer base in Bangladesh is the growing IT sector, particularly Bangladeshi freelance IT workers who can use the Payza platform to receive payments from outside of the country and transfer them into their local banks.[10]
By September 2012, Payza's services in Bangladesh had been widely adopted.[11]
In November 2012, Payza received the first license issued from the country's central bank, Bangladesh Bank, for inbound foreign remittances entering Bangladesh via an online payment gateway.[12] The company subsequently announced the launch of the remittance platform SimplySendBD, developed in collaboration with Casada Technology Bangladesh Ltd.[13]
Payza supports sending and receiving payments in 190+ countries in 20+ currencies.[6] Individual customers can open an account with Payza through registering their email address and personal data on the company's website. Completing an optional identity verification process allows the sending/receiving of higher-value payments, though it is obligatory for all transactions in some parts of the world. Accounts are identified by email address(es) associated with them; payments made from a Payza account are like "sending" money to an email address.
For businesses, Payza provides several business management tools such as checkout buttons, shopping carts, support for invoicing and payouts, and tools for developers to integrate Payza with their websites.
There are no fees when sending money. Fees are applied when money is received or payments processed, and will vary based on the account type.[14]
All Payza data is encoded with 128-bit SSL encryption. Payza reviews all websites of merchant accounts to ensure that they conform to Payza's terms and conditions before they are allowed to accept payments.
Payza employs a proprietary monitoring system called the Fraud Matrix, which scans every transaction through Payza and flags any suspicious activity.[15]
In August 2012, Payza partnered with Intelligent ID to enhance their identity verification for users in the United Kingdom.[16]
In October 2012, Payza upgraded their SSL encryption using Trustwave, a Certification Authority and distributor of SSL certificates.[17]
In October 2012, Payza announced the incorporation of the TRUSTe Privacy Seal Program, which confirms the security of their website, with the goal of strengthening customer confidence in their platform.[18]
In December 2013, Payza rolled out a new account design, which included the addition of Advanced Security Setup. This feature reduces the threat of phishing by displaying a customizable avatar and welcome message to the customer during the login process, as well as several question-and-answer pairings designed to ensure that only authorized account holders have access.
Paybefore Awards, Outstanding Newcomer in Prepaid/Emerging Payments (2013).[19]
Executive Vice-President Firoz Patel was nominated for the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award in 2010 and 2011 for AlertPay. In 2012, he was nominated and advanced to the Finals because of the instrumental role he played in the successful acquisition of AlertPay assets by MH Pillars, which subsequently launched Payza.com.[20]

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Oakland General Manager Billy Beane was looking to shore up his infield, both offensively and defensively.
He got what he was looking for in Alberto Callaspo.
The Athletics acquired Callaspo from AL West rival Los Angeles Angels for infield prospect Grant Green on Tuesday night.
"We needed some infield help, particularly somebody who could help swing it from the right side," Beane said. "Just a little bit of a hedge at every position and help from the right side against left-handed pitching."
Callaspo was removed from the Angels game against the Texas Rangers after the fourth inning on Tuesday night. Green was a late scratch from Triple-A Sacramento's lineup.
"We're pretty thin infield-wise when you start thinking about the fact that we've played Josh (Donaldson), it seems like, almost every inning of every game," Beane said. "We were in a situation where we needed another infielder."
Callaspo was hitting .253 with five home runs and 36 RBIs entering Tuesday. He will back up Donaldson and also play second base for the A's. Callaspo, who has been solely a third baseman for three seasons, last played second in 2010.
"I spoke to Alberto tonight and mentioned the fact that he's going to be over there," Beane said. "The good thing is he's played a lot of it in the past but there's no question there's been a little bit of a void the last couple of years."
The 30-year-old Callaspo is hitting .253 with 42 homers and 293 RBIs in an eight-year career with Arizona, Kansas City and the Angels.
The A's first round draft pick in 2009, Green was hitless in 15 at-bats, with an RBI, during his first stint in the major leagues this season. The 25-year-old infielder was hitting .325 at Sacramento.
The New York Yankees were also reportedly interested in Callapso.

It is (should be) a given that we all try and avoid situations and trouble, and most BG's raise alarms probably.
However ...... I am always aware of that animal - ''the ultimate con man'' ....... the guy (or woman in fact) who is SO convincing that they appear normal, and some.
I'd be interested to hear LE views on this, as - while we should not be stereotyping to excess - we all do to some degree and have to. I am interested as to how many cops spot the BG's better than the rest of us might. There is always ''spidey sense'' and of course body language clues etc but .... I have come across at least one person (not a pure BG per se but scam artist) who I am sure would defy recognition by about anyone at all.
I visualize a scene where a guy in smart suit and well groomed enters an establishment - only to be there to rob, and maybe armed. The sorta guy most would ignore. I guess vigilance has to be total of course but - always hoping to learn more clues!

Getty Realty Corp. Announces Financial Results For The Quarter Ended March 31, 2012
Per share amount comparisons for AFFO, FFO and net earnings were adversely affected by a 2.7% increase in the number of shares outstanding in the current quarter resulting from the Company's equity issuance in the first quarter of 2011.
Operating Income:
Revenues from rental properties included in continuing operations include approximately $12.6 million and $9.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, of rent contractually due or received from tenants other than Marketing. The increase in rent contractually due or received from these tenants for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily due to rental income from properties the Company acquired in January and March 2011.
Revenues contractually due from Marketing included in continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were approximately $18.0 million as compared to $15.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. However, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company provided $10.0 million of additional reserves for bad debts, which are included in general and administrative expenses, against the $18.0 million in revenues contractually due from Marketing, which the Company does not expect to collect. The reported increase in the rent contractually due from Marketing was primarily due to a $2.8 million increase in the real estate taxes the Company pays and bills to Marketing.Rental property expenses included in continuing operations, which are primarily comprised of rent expense and real estate and other state and local taxes, were $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in rental property expenses is principally due to additional real estate tax and rent expense paid by the Company and reimbursable by the Company's tenants related to properties and leasehold interests acquired in 2011 and accrued past due real estate taxes historically paid by Marketing.

Just to add a real data point to the discussion: In handling Digest, my server decides whether to send qop="auth" or qop="auth,auth-int" in a challenge based on whether it knows that the client can handle chunked+trailers, since I send Authentication-Info as a chunked trailer always. If you think it through, you see the message sequence is 1) C->S Get resource R 2) S->C 401 Authentication Required send qop="auth" or qop="auth,auth-int" based on client's ability to handle chunked+trailers 3) C->S Get resource R WWW-Authenticate ... qop=auth or qop=auth-int 4) S->C 200 OK send R, possibly chunked and with trailers for qop=auth-int Therefore, if the server can decide at step (2) whether it's safe to send trailers, there shouldn't be a problem. I can live with Roy's Via proposal or the TE: trailers proposal. Both should let me tell whether it's safe to send trailers. Dave KristolReceived on Wednesday, 26 August 1998 21:20:03 EDT

In 2010, six of the eight largest categories of expenditures available in both the Interview and Diary surveys show greater underreporting in the Diary survey (two other large categories of expenditures are not collected in the Diary survey). The weighted average of Diary totals to national income account totals for categories that line up with the national accounts is 17 percentage points lower than the ratio for the Interview survey, though this partly reflects the different coverage of the two surveys.
For the 37 categories that can be compared in the Interview and Diary, the weighted average of the coefficient of variation is 58 percent higher in the Diary, with 33 of the 37 categories subject to greater variation even after accounting for differences in sample size (Bee, Meyer, and Sullivan, 2012). The higher variability of responses from the Diary survey mean that 2.5 diary responses are needed to equal the precision of one interview response, an issue that is not reflected in any of the cost accounting in the report.
Response rate differences between the surveys and the frequency of reports of no expenditures are also consistent with higher Interview survey data quality. The recent experience of Canada is instructive: a switch from interview to diary led to 9–14 percent more under-reporting on average (Dubreuil et al., 2011). This evidence is mentioned in the report, but is not deemed to have important implications for a redesign. Additional evidence of problems with diary surveys can be found in Crossley and Winter (2012). While these findings refer to existing surveys, they raise important concerns about the collection of expenditure data that relies heavily on diary methods.
The suggested redesigns, of course, aim to improve upon existing methods, although there is not a great deal of evidence to support that the effects will be dramatic. For example, monetary incentives for respondents are emphasized, but the evidence on such incentives from randomized trials suggests small effects that are even smaller for high-income households (e.g., Clark and Mack, 2009). The differential effects by income are particularly important since one of the most significant problems with the CE is lower response and under-reporting among high-income households (Sabelhaus et al., 2012).

If you like the itinerary below please quote REF CHINA 1309 when enquiring for further details.
Alternatively you may like modify this trip with your own Holiday Wish List
Huan ying, welcome to China and the start of your holiday! Today you will be collected from your hotel in Beijing and taken to the train station for the train to Lhasa, Tibet.
Enjoy life on board the train and watch the ever changing scenery go by.
Today we arrive into Lhasa in the afternoon. Upon arrival you will be met by our representative and transferred to your hotel for check in. Enjoy the evening at your leisure.
Today enjoy a guided tour of the autonomous region's capital. Sightseeing includes a visit to the beautiful Potala Palace - the dominant landmark of Lhasa, towering 117 meters above the city below. Construction started on the red hill in 1645 under the 5th Dalai Lama. The highlight of today is a visit to Jokhang Temple, the most sacred and important temple in Tibet and also the most captivating. There is an electric atmosphere as crowds of pilgrims travel around the chapels praying. We also visit bustling Barkhor Street.
Another full day of sightseeing in the fabled city of Lhasa, visiting the 15th century Drepung Monastery, formerly one of the largest monasteries in Tibet, once housing 10,000 monks. Sightseeing also includes the Sera Monastery and Norbulinka monastery - the Dalai Lama's summer palace which was completed in 1783 under the Eighth Dalai Lama. Set in beautiful grounds with fountains, chapels and pools, Norbulinka is located on the outskirts of Lhasa and it is from here that the present Dalai Lama fled in the 1950's. Sera Monastery is still a working retreat, 600 years after its foundation as a main teaching monastery and one of the three great Gelukpa 'universities' once housing more than 5500 monks.
Enjoy some free time in Lhasa this morning before we transfer to the airport for your flight to Xian. Upon arrival you will be met and transferred to your hotel for check in.
Xi'an in Shaanxi Province is perhaps most famous for the discovery of Emperor Qin's Terracotta Warriors. The 2,200 year old warriors comprise more than 7,000 life-sized soldiers which stand battle-ready in excavated pits. We tour the site and a workshop where replicas are crafted.
Today we visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and take a bike ride along the great old City Wall that offers unique views of the city and residence below. We also visit the Muslim Quarter before taking a late afternoon flight to Chengdu.
Enjoy a guided visit to the Shaanxi Rare Wildlife Rescue and Breeding Centre. The centre offers care to a small number of injured Giant Pandas in the region. We also visit the Giant Buddha.
We take a morning train to Chongqing today where we take a tour of the city. Later, we board your cruise for your journey down the mightly Yangtze River.
Good morning from the River Yangtze! At 6340km in length, the Yangtze is the 3rd longest river in the world, neatly dividing China into north and south and wending its way through eight very different provinces. The Gorges are a breathtaking sight! The first gorge we pass, Qutangxia Gorge is the shortest and narrowest yet the most impressive.
During our cruise, we'll also sail through the new ship locks of the impressive Three Gorges Dam construction. Shore excursions to mythical Fengdu - 'Ghost City' and Shennong stream, with its unique scenery and four natural gorges. Drift serenely along the stream in open 'pea pod boats', looking out upon lush greenery and ancient villages of the Tujia people.
Disembarking from our cruise today, you will be met by your guide and transferred to the airport for your flight to Shanghai. Upon arrival you will be transferred to your hotel for check in.
Good morning Shanghai! Just the mere mention of 'Shanghai' conjures up mystery, romance and general decadence. Pre – 1949, cosmopolitan Shanghai was a magnet for seekers of wealth, idle colonialists, explorers and the dispossessed. Everything went belly up in 1949, when Mao and the communists took to power and swept the good times and rock and roll away. Today we tour many of the city's top spots - Yu Gardens and Bazaar- Shanghai's finest traditional garden, the Bund, Pudong and the Oriental Pearl TV Tower and the Old City.
Today, we journey to an oriental Venice via high speed train - ancient Suzhou interwoven by a series of canals and pretty waterways. We cruise on the Grand Canal at 1800km in length it's the longest canal on earth and ranks alongside the Great Wall as China's greatest engineering achievement, and visit a silk workshop. We also visit the Humble Administrators Garden before returning to Shanghai later today.
Today we bid you farewell and will transfer you to the airport in time for your departure flight.
About 100km northwest of Lijiang in Yunnan province is where the Yangtze River's upper reaches, the Jingsha Jiang, channel with ...

'Chuck' Star Yvonne Strahovski Bares (Almost) All for Sobe! (PHOTOS)
Wowza! It's Yvonne Strahovski like you've never seen her before! The Chuck star is showing off what her momma gave her in a new ad campaign, and Celebuzz is giving you an eye full at the sexy results!
Yvonne traded her role as a secret agent for a turn as the latest SoBe skinsuit model. Covered in cleverly placed body paint, Yvonne launches the new SoBe Lifewater with Coconut Water line.
How does she feel about the, uh, exposure? We asked, she answered!
For the record, Yvonne is completely covered in body paint -- and nothing else. "It was an interesting process, it took six hours to paint on," she reveals.
"The pics are very artistic," she says of the campaign. "When I saw the other ads I thought they were very beautiful."
As for her own shots, she was impressed at how well the body art blended with the various sets in Miami. She says the artist who painted her actually brought his mother along to help out with the work! The mother-son duo actually helped put her at east, she says.
Natch, we had to ask about her other impressive body of work -- her TV show! With the final season of Chuck airing this year, "I've had time to say my goodbyes," she says. She does promise some surprise twists coming up, but of course those are top secret!

Hitler Doesn't Like the iPhone 4S Either
Quick someone metion Hitler and prove Godwins Law before this thread is made any more ridiculous.
Stop thinking about these things in such a belligerent and stubborn way. We have gone from having a device the size of a house that can do sums to having a computer more powerful than that which put us on the moon in 30ish years.
Just because a lot of the older achievements were massively changing and far between (eg. fire, the wheel, electricity, mass production etc...), doesn't mean new achievements aren't as far reaching. Look at the mobile phone. Go to many third world countries and now each village, which used to be completely cut off from the world, will have some form of phone in it.
Look at the web. 30 years ago, the only way you could buy something was to go to your local shop. Now, you can order anything from anywhere from the comfort of your living room. Is that not as huge as the industrial revolution? I think it is.
[*1] I'm not actually a big fan of Steve Jobs, I don't like the way Apple has treated a lot of app developers for instance, but Jobs did make a huge contribution to an industry I'm passionate about. I find it impossible not to have a huge respect for that.
Anyway, despite not being a fanboi my post was more about me expressing respect for Steve Jobs and trying to give a sense of why I feel that respect is deserved (perhaps because I'm not a fanboi), rather than wanting to make substantive points and have a debate on the exact meaning of them. I'm a child of the personal computer revolution - in 1977 I was gawk eyed infront of AIM 65's, EMMA's, KIM's and Commodore PET's trying to bend those machines to my will. Jobs, Gates, Sinclair, Zaks, Tramiel - these names and more (certainly Moore!) all stand like giants in my mind and what they bought to the world has had an impact so huge that it really is difficult to quantify it without that sounding like hype.

Steve Jobs Stanford Commencement Speech 2005 - YouTube
^ Some background Information about Steve, Said by Steve!
Here we see Steve Jobs delivering his commencement speech to the graduates of Stanford University in 2005. In it he talks about getting fired from Apple in 1985, life & death.
Last edited by EduTech; 6th October 2011 at 06:06 PM.
It's all a bit much. Regardless of the opinions of many, and Apple do split so many, I will remind this isn't about Apple but about Mr Jobs himself. Yes he did questionable things. So have most of us in our lifetimes - but our decisions have never been quite so public, or with millions of fans/haters watching every move you make. I've already said I really dislike Apple as a company and I rarely bother commenting on their products because it often produces too much bother. Just like religions, it is disrespectful to mock someone for their beliefs and the same applies here.
I gave neg rep to Disease (and said it was me) because I think what was said was a little out of line and perhaps said with too much bias. That's my opinion but let's PLEASE not start another "wtf reputation" argument again. I think no less of Disease for that, nor for his stated opinions.
I'd ideally liked to have just seen this as a tribute thread, but with someone in Jobs' position it was never going to be that clear cut and opinions will be divided. Let's respect each-other's opinions, not take offence at one another and just get on with our lives in the manner we see fit.
RIP Steve; your input to the world in which we work has shaped a lot. Chaos theory has a lot to answer for but could anyone say we'd be typing this here in this manner on this type of forum on this sort of computer without him?

"… And the three men I admire most: The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost, they caught the last train for the coast, the day the music died." Don McLean, "American Pie".
Take a look at these wonderful photos of Buddy Holly and Waylon Jennings shortly before Holly was killed in a plane crash along with the Big Bopper and Richie Valens in on February 3rd, 1959. If these were taken in New York City's Grand Central Station, one could only assume they were embarking on that fateful tour that would be Holly's last. That makes these all the more special. The most tragic thing about the death's of Holly, Valens, and The Big Bopper? Their ages. The Big Bopper was 28. Holly was 22(!). Valens was 17 (!!).
Enjoy these photos below.
