BGC Partners Updates Its Second Quarter 2012 Financial Outlook
Distributable earnings is not meant to be an exact measure of cash generated by operations and available for distribution, nor should it be considered in isolation or as an alternative to cash flow from operations or GAAP net income (loss). The Company views distributable earnings as a metric that is not necessarily indicative of liquidity or the cash available to fund its operations.
Pre- and post-tax distributable earnings are not intended to replace the Company's presentation of GAAP financial results. However, management believes that they help provide investors with a clearer understanding of BGC Partners' financial performance and offer useful information to both management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends related to the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that distributable earnings and the GAAP measures of financial performance should be considered together.
Management does not anticipate providing an outlook for GAAP "revenues", "income (loss) from operations before income taxes," "net income (loss) for fully diluted shares," and "fully diluted earnings (loss) per share," because the items previously identified as excluded from pre-tax distributable earnings and post-tax distributable earnings are difficult to forecast. Management will instead provide its outlook only as it relates to revenues for distributable earnings, pre-tax distributable earnings and post-tax distributable earnings.
For more information on this topic, please see the sections of BGC's most recent financial results press release entitled "Distributable Earnings," "Distributable Earnings Results Compared with GAAP Results," and "Reconciliation of GAAP Income to Distributable Earnings" for a complete definition of these non-GAAP terms and how, when and why management uses them, as well as for the differences between results under GAAP and distributable earnings for the periods discussed in that release.About BGC Partners, Inc.

text: I started the Ortho Micronor approximately 3 weeks ago right after getting off of my birth control pills that contained estrogen. My doctor switched me to a non estrogen pill because I told her that I had been smoking cigarettes regularly. The estrogen pills are not safe if you smoke. I had my regular period right before stopping the old pills. I then started taking the Ortho Micronor & have had a period every week since then. I am giving them a chance & I will stay on them to see if my periods even out, but if it doesn't get better after three months of use I will try something else. I have also had a couple of headaches since starting these new pills, but nothing excrutiating.

Woodward High School is a public high school located in the Bond Hill neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. It is part of the Cincinnati Public School District.
Old Woodward Building[edit]
Woodward was one of the first public schools in the country.[3] The land for the original school was donated by William Woodward and his wife Abigail Cutter in 1826 to provide free education for poor children who could not afford private schooling.[4] Their remains are buried on school grounds in the Over-the-Rhine area of Cincinnati (and it is a fixture of student lore that Abigail's ghost haunts the building).[5] The Woodward Free Grammar School opened on the site in 1831 and was the first free public school in the city. The original two-story school building was replaced in 1855. On the day after his election, President Elect William Howard Taft, who graduated from Woodward High School in 1874, laid the cornerstone of a third building, which opened to students in 1910 (39°6′38″N 84°30′36″W / 39.11056°N 84.51000°W).[3][6]
The site is also linked to the Underground Railroad.[7] William Woodward built a home on the site in 1832, where Levi Coffin and his wife, Catharine, lived from 1856 to 1863. Coffin (known as "The President of the Underground Railroad"), sheltered over one hundred fugitive slaves each year on their way to freedom in Canada. The home was first occupied by Henry Rucher, an early principal and math teacher at the Woodward school, and it was commonly known as the Rucher House. It later served as the Good Samaritan Hospital (still in operation at its later Clifton Heights location). In 1865 it became St. Luke's Hospital, where disabled Civil War soldiers were treated. It was replaced by residential homes in 1874, which were demolished to clear ground for the new Woodward school building in 1907.[8]
The brick, stone, and terra cotta building, designed by Gustav Brach, had some of the most modern facilities of its day, including flush toilets, central heating, and two swimming pools.[9] It is notable for its many Rookwood Pottery drinking fountains and tile fixtures, many of them gifts from student clubs and graduating classes in the early 1900s. Also notable are the stained glass windows of the same period in the main entryway, the largest of which is a memorial mural of "The Landing of William Woodward at Cincinnati in Fall of 1791", which was part of the 1855 construction and was preserved after that building was destroyed.[10] The current five-story building has 150 rooms and 225,000 sq ft (20,900 m2) of space, a third of which is unusable (including the swimming pools on the top floor).[11]
The building is listed in the Over-the-Rhine (South) Local Historic District and the Over-the-Rhine National Register Historic District.[12]
Bond Hill[edit]
In 1953 Woodward High School moved to a new location in Bond Hill, and the older building was designated Abigail Cutter Junior High School until the School for Creative and Performing Arts took over the entire facility in 1977.[10] Woodward High School has since moved four times, in addition to opening a secondary campus near its current location on Reading Road.
Woodward High School won the Ohio High School Athletic Association State Championships for baseball in 1931 and 1945[13] and for basketball in 1988.[14]
In August 2006, the City of Cincinnati opened Woodward Career Technical High School, which features a mixture of college-preparatory and vocational education. With the new addition, the original campus was now called Woodward Traditional High School.
In June 2011, demolition of the "Woodward Traditional High School" building was begun and the original 1953 Woodward High School building has now been completely demolished. A synthetic turf football field, baseball field, and fieldhouse will be built in place on the 1953 building.

Don't Tweak 'Nightline' To Appeal To Younger Demographics, Ted Koppel Warns
Ted Koppel said this to Michele Greppi, but was he really talking to David Westin and James Goldston?:
"I think you do news programs based purely on what is important out there and what you think, in your best judgment, is going to have the greatest impact. Anytime you start looking at a program and saying, 'Should we try to tweak what we do based on whom we're trying to appeal to?,' I think that's a step in the wrong direction.
Now, I don't know that's where 'Nightline' is going to go. I truly don't. But if they move in that direction, that would the wrong way to go."

The art of modelling using CFD. Part II – Grilles
Wiki quote: "A grille is an opening of several slits side by side in a wall or metal sheet or other barrier, usually to let air or water enter and/or leave but keep larger objects including people and animals in or out." For electronic products that need to be kept cool, getting cool air in through grille work is commonplace, thermal designers love them, EMC/EMI designers don't. For such products, keeping animals in isn't as important as keeping fingers out. From a modelling perspective, accurately representing the effects that the grilles have on the air flow is obviously critical. Representing them efficiently can save hours of thermal simulation time…
Take a model of a desk top unit comprising of an enclosure with some electronics inside. Grilles on the side and top allow for air flow through the system. No fans, the air moves due to buoyancy alone, so called 'natural convection'. When modelling the grille slots exactly the excessive computational mesh required to resolve the air flow as it bends around the uprights results in lengthy solution times.
It looks realistic and the simulation accuracy is as best as you could hope for. Unfortunately, in the real world, the project you are working on requires 5 design variants to be simulated in time for the project review meeting right after lunch. As a thermal designer how could I reduce or simplify my model to get results quickly without unduly affecting the simulation accuracy? Well fear not, those clever people at Mentor Graphics have included a neat object in FloTHERMthat can be used to efficiently represent the effects of grille work quite easily. Us FloTHERMians refer to it as a 'resistance' object. It doesn't require much mesh but will correctly resist the air flow in the same way as the actual grille work does. It does however require a parameter to be defined that captures the flow resistive effects; a pressure loss coefficient. FloTHERM can derive this from a specified % 'open area' of the grille, it can be obtained from the literature (Idelchick seems to have spent his entire life putting things in wind tunnels to note down their loss coefficient and the entire fluid dynamics community is therefore indebted to him for ever) or you could actually use FloTHERM itself to derive it.
Delete the exact geometry of the grilles and replace with the simple 2D resistance object:
Solution time is slashed, results of interest (e.g. Tj_max of the processor) change little (spot the difference below) and you get kudos for presenting the conclusions of running 12 grille configuration variants at the review meeting.
Modelling is the art of representation, the reward is a pay rise and a promotion (we wish).

I'm a CS grad and have been programming for past 5 years. I like it. As an experienced programmer I'd like to transition more towards the Space industry. What skills do you think a programmer would already have/ need to get to make that transition? Also why these particular skills and how do you see them relating to the Space industry?

You'll have to love old technologies: OOP is performed in C and everything is static.
You'll have to love testing: failure on a spacecraft is not an option (unless you have enough money to rent a shuttle for going there and repair) -- UPDATE: space shuttles are no longer available for rent.
You'll have to love very low level software: debugging may involve disassembling machine code while executed by CPU with a logic analyser.
You'll have to love testing.
You'll have to love realtime distributed software, and even more realtime distributed bugs: semaphores, priorities, dining philosophers, ...
You'll have to love testing.
All the basic solid software engineering philosophies (unit tests/ integration tests/ continuous builds/ strong processes /incremental development and what not) applied in a very detail oriented way. (This is hear say from my friends who worked in the Indian space research org's child companies).
Also note: depending on your country, the org could be using some seriously old code base, just because migrating off it is damn hard. So don't be surprised if you run into a mainframe or two.
Finally, Why the space industry? There are so many more rewarding (money wise/ job satisfaction wise/ result wise) industries out there, with equivalent work. The horror stories I have heard about trying to effect a small change in such an established org are ... horrifying.
Remember where ever you go, it all comes down to solid skills / quick learning / attention to details.
An interesting article about writing the software for the space shuttle is here. Basically, you check your ego at the door and follow an incredibly intricate process of specifying, simulating, testing and code reviewing. Any significant change means producing enough documentation to fill a five-foot bookshelf with binders. And the change itself may only be 4-500 lines of code.

Whenever a divorcing client comes in and tells me that their spouse has said, "We don't need lawyers," I become wary. When that other spouse is self-employed, I become downright suspicious. If their career is in high finance, my suspicion grows twofold.
My reaction is based on years of seeing this same pattern play out. I'm not a financial divorce specialist, but I am an experienced divorce therapist and one of the main reasons I began working with people (primarily women) in this realm is that I saw the less financially-savvy spouse or the "outspouse" (the term used by the court for the spouse who does not own the business from which income may be hidden) fall victim to the spouse in charge of the finances or business owner.
The reason the knowledgeable spouse doesn't want attorneys (or accountants) involved, is that they don't want their scheme(s) to be uncovered.
Divorce is hard enough, especially if an affair is involved, but add to it an additional layer of deception and betrayal, and it can make the trusting spouse wonder if the entire marriage had been a sham. It's nothing short of devastating.

About Henry Percy, 1st Earl of Northumberland
Henry Percy, 1st Earl of Northumberland
Henry Percy, 1st Earl of Northumberland, 4th Baron Percy, titular King of Mann, KG, Lord Marshal (10 November 1341 – 20 February 1408) was the son of Henry de Percy, 3rd Baron Percy, and a descendent of Henry III of England. His mother was Mary of Lancaster, daughter of Henry, 3rd Earl of Lancaster, son of Edmund, Earl of Leicester and Lancaster, who was the son of Henry III. Henry Percy married Margaret Neville, daughter of Ralph Neville, 2nd Baron Neville de Raby, and Alice de Audley. They were the parents of Henry Percy, nicknamed "Harry Hotspur".[2]
Henry Percy was originally a follower of Edward III of England, for whom he held high offices in the administration of northern England. At a young age he was made Warden of the Marches towards Scotland in 1362, with the authority to negotiate with the Scottish government. In February 1367 he was entrusted with the supervision of all castles and fortified places in the Scottish marches. He went on to support King Richard II and was created an Earl and briefly given the title of Marshal of England. After Richard elevated his rival Ralph Neville to the position of Earl of Westmorland in 1397, Percy supported the rebellion of Henry Bolingbroke, who became King as Henry IV.
On King Henry IV's coronation he was appointed Constable of England and granted the lordship of the Isle of Man. Percy and his son, Henry Percy, known as "Hotspur", were given the task of subduing the rebellion of Owain Glyndwr, but their attempts to make peace with the Welsh rebels did not meet with the king's approval. In 1403 the Percys turned against Henry IV in favour of Edmund Mortimer, 5th Earl of March, and then conspired with Owain Glyndwr against King Henry.
The Percy rebellion failed at the Battle of Shrewsbury, where Hotspur was killed. Since the earl did not directly participate in the rebellion, he was not convicted of treason. However, he lost his office as Constable. In 1405 Percy supported Richard le Scrope, Archbishop of York, in another rebellion, after which Percy fled to Scotland, and his estates were confiscated by the king.
In 1408 Percy invaded England in rebellion once more and was killed at the Battle of Bramham Moor. Percy's severed head was subsequently put on display at London Bridge.
Northumberland is a major character in Shakespeare's Richard II, Henry IV, part 1, and Henry IV, part 2.
His position as a character in the Shakespearean canon inspired the character of Lord Percy Percy, Duke of Northumberland in the historical sitcom The Black Adder, set during the very late Plantagenet era.
The novel Lion of Alnwick by Carol Wensby-Scott is the first volume of the Percy Saga trilogy which retells the story of "the wild and brilliant Percy family" and relates a fictionalised account of the 1st Earl of Northumberland and his son Henry "Hotspur" Percy's lives. The other novels in the trilogy, Lion Dormant and Lion Invincible tell the story of his other descendants and their role in the English War of the Roses.
Henry Percy and his son Hotspur are also essential characters in Edith Pargeter's novel, A Bloody Field by Shrewsbury which recounts the events leading up to the Battle of Shrewsbury in 1403.
He is a major character in My Lord John by Georgette Heyer.
Alnwick Castle, the traditional home of the Percy family, was featured in the Harry Potter movies as the location of Hogwarts.

- Philippa the second is a very difficult lady to make quite square, for in an inquisition p. m., 51 Edw. III., 1st Nos. 45, as to proof of her age, she is styled wife of Ralph de Percy and one of the daughters and co-heirs of David de Strabolgi, Earl of Athol. Ralph's father Henry, Lord de Percy, first Earl of Northumberland) had the custody of her lands, and his elder brother, Sir Thomas Percy, of Athol, Knt., married Elizabeth, the eldest daughter and co-heir of David de Strabolgi, Earl of Athol. As Sir Ralph de Percy did not died until Sept. 15, 1397 (Inq. p. m. 1 Hen. IV., No. 6, pt. 1), two years after the death of Philippa, there is at once a difficulty here; and that there was some doubt as to whether her children were legitimate is proved by a writ to the Bishop of Chichester to inquire "whether Hugh Halsham, Esq., was a bastard, as alleged by John Hemery in answer to his claim to lands in Combes in Sussex" (Feb. 8, 6 Hen. IV.); to which inquiry the bishop gives a certificate "that Hugh H. was
- Pg.408
- lawful heir to is mother Philippa through whom he claimed," .... etc. Richard may have been an illegitimate son of John Halsham and Philippa de Strabolgi; for it is certain that there was some screw loose as to her marriage with Ralph de Percy, who seems to have outlived her, although she was married to John Halsham. I should be very glad to learn whether there is in existence any proof of dissolution of her marriage with Ralph, whose eldest brother was Henry de Percy, commonly called Hotspur, and therefore not a very likely person, one would imagine, either to give up property that came to him by his wife, or to resign a great heiress, as she was, without some good cause.

- Sir Henry de Percy
- Birth: Nov. 10, 1341 Alnwick, Northumberland, England
- Death: Feb. 19, 1408 Bramham, West Yorkshire, England
- Oldest of two sons of Henry de Percy, 3rd Baron de Percy of Alnwick and his first wife, Lady Mary Plantagenet. His brother, Thomas, would become the first and last Earl of Worcester while Henry became the 4th Baron de Percy and the 1st Earl of Northumberland.
- Henry married Margaret de Neville on July 12, 1358, the daughter of Ralph de Neville, 2nd Baron Neville de Raby and Alice de Audley. *They were the parents of:
- Henry 1364-1403 Lord Percy m Elizabeth de Mortimer
- Ralph 1365-1397 m Phillipa Atholl, no issue
- Thomas 1366-1388 m Phillipa Atholl
- Possibly Margaret and Alan
- After Margaret died in 1372, Henry married again about 1383, to Maud Lucy, daughter of Thomas de Lucy, 2nd Lord Lucy and Margaret de Multon, but had no children.
- Henry was loyal to Edward III, and held high positions in northern England's administration offices. in 1362, he was made Warden of the Scotland Marches, and given the supervision of all Scottish marches castle and fortifications in February of 1367.
- When his father died in 1368, Henry succeeded him as the 4th Baron de Percy of Alnwick Castle, where he was born.
- Kind Edward died in 1377, replaced by Richard II, who Henry supported until Richard made Ralph de Neville the Earl of Westmorland in 1397, when Ralph and Henry, after Margaret's death, became rivals. Henry and his brother, Thomas, both turned their loyalties to Henry Bolingbroke, the son of John of Gaunt and Blanche of Lancaster, who would become King Henry IV. After Henry's coronation (and Richard's untimely and sudden death), Henry de Percy was appointed Constable of England and granted the Isle of Man, but given the task of quelling the Welsh rebellions led my Owain Glyndwir. By this time, Henry's son, Henry 'the hotspur' was old enough to join forces with his father.
- Then in 1403, Henry turned against Henry IV in favor of Edmund Mortimer who conspired with Owain, as he laid claim to the throne through his father as a direct descendant of Edward. Henry would lose his brother, Thomas, at the Battle of Shrewbury July 21, 1403 (his son Henry Hotspur would lead the battle against Henry IV), and Henry would meet his end only five years later at the Battle of Branham Moor in 1408, invading Northern England and well defeated.
- His son, Henry Hotspur, met a similar fate, killed at the Battle of Shrewsbury, buried on Henry IV's orders, but later exhumed as rumors proclaimed Hotspur still alive. He was impaled on a spear, then cut into quarters to be sent all over England. His head was placed on a pole at York's gates.
- The Percy line would continue into the twenty first century, still living at Alnwick Castle, Northumberland.

Rahul seeks 'legal accountability' for 2002, disputes Narendra Modi 'clean chit'
BY: M K Razdan
In his sharpest attack on Narendra Modi over the 2002 Gujarat riots, Rahul Gandhi on Sunday demanded "legal accountability" for the "clear and inexcusable failure" of governance during the violence, and dismissed talk of a clean chit to the BJP's prime ministerial nominee as "politically expedient" but "far too premature".
In an interview to PTI at his residence, the Congress vice-president said that Modi was answerable on moral grounds. "Beyond that there should be legal accountability for the clear and inexcusable failure of governance under him."
The BJP contends that Modi has been given a clean chit by the Supreme Court-appointed SIT and courts and, therefore, has nothing to answer or apologise for regarding the post-Godhra riots.
Asked about this, Rahul said: "As you know, the SIT report had been seriously questioned by a number of credible experts. Grave flaws have been pointed out in the functioning of the SIT. The acceptance of the flawed SIT report by the lowest court has not yet been subjected to judicial scrutiny by higher courts."
Referring to the Gujarat Chief Minister, he added: "The specific allegation and evidence pointing to Mr Modi's responsibility in the 2002 riots are yet to be adequately probed. Any talk of his having been given a clean chit may be politically expedient, but is far too premature. There are many unanswered questions. There is a lot more the country needs to know."
With the BJP bringing up the 1984 anti-Sikh riots whenever cornered on 2002, Rahul went a step further on the matter than he had done during a recent TV interview.
Asked why he, as the Congress vice-president, had hesitated during the TV interview to apologise for the riots which followed the assassination of his grandmother and PM Indira Gandhi in 1984, Rahul said, "The Prime Minister of the UPA has apologised and the president of the Congress party (has) expressed regrets. I share their sentiments completely."
Debunking opinion polls predicting heavy losses for the Congress, the party's chief campaigner acknowledged that there was a "certain amount of anti-incumbency against us", but maintained that the party would do better than 2009 when it had won 206 seats in the face of similar grim predictions.
Refusing to hazard a guess on the number of seats the Congress would win, Rahul said: "We will do well." He cited the UPA's various welfare scheme as its achievements.
Rahul added that he did not see the Aam Aadmi Party as a factor at the national level in the coming Lok Sabha elections. The new party had got an opportunity to run Delhi for which the Congress had given full support, he said. "They did not solve any of the problems they said they would. Frankly, they ran away… It is one thing to make large continued…

There are a lot of different pieces that come together with SEO today. In some ways it can get convoluted, and many people realize that too late. You could find yourself swimming in the middle of opportunity and the next minute, search engines can completely freeze you out. Some think of optimization as an art form and it truly can be that. In fact, it's better to think of it as an art rather than science. The reason why that is simple, science tests and proves theories right or wrong. In the world of internet marketing, you cannot afford to be wrong. When you're wrong, you lose financial gains fast. It's for that reason that you need to consider authority and relevance as the top tiers of your strategy. Without them at the helm, you're going to find yourself losing market share faster than fast.
Not Everyone is A Master of Authority
Authority modules are important when you're working with optimization. However, you should know that there's no real "mastery" of this element. Yes, there are ways that you can implement certain elements of the process, but to say that you've mastered it is a bit bolder than most dare say. It's for that reason that authority matters a great deal, but not in the traditional sense. You need to ensure that whenever you're hiring someone or working on this type of internet marketing protocol, that it comes alongside a great deal of conscious effort. If one is not putting in a certain nuanced approach to the methodologies needed to create traffic, then everything falls apart. Authority placement requires careful observation and implementation. Without that, everything is for not.
The Problem With Science
Search engine algorithms can be looked upon as science, but in the end, do not look at SEO without the point of relevance. The formulas that some marketers are coming up with don't work, because the algorithms that search engines use today are not set in stone like math. They are flexible, and allow for multiple answers. It's for that reason that someone can set up a blog and gain a huge following, while others can build an ecommerce site that should draw a lot of attention and receive nothing. The playing field is leveled based on popularity, authority, and relevance, not a scientific formula. The minute you start to subscribing to the notion that SEO is some sort of math problem that can be solved based solely on numbers, is the minute that you'll start losing huge.
The Relationship of Relevancy
Here is the one thing that many people get wrong. Relevancy is not a matter of just picking the correct keywords for your business's website. You need to pick the right words that will work within the context of search results and human interest. Too often people focus on what the robots are going to pull through with, and not what users are going to want to read. If you want popularity and authority on your sites, you'll need to know how to use keywords that relate to the market in a very "dictionary" way. Webmasters that don't think like the end user, usually come up with terrible ideas for implementing proper marketing strategies. Be careful when setting things up in regards to relevant keyword placement and suggestions.
SEO is not something that can be done and forgotten. It's a matter of working with a variety of different components and seeing it through in a much nuanced manner. Treating it like science, or some sort of math equation will only suffice in frustrating you when the results don't match the work you're putting into it.

(Adds development pipeline in 15th paragraph.)
July 5 (Bloomberg) -- The price of a luxury home in central London can jump as much as 3,000 pounds ($4,800) a square foot with the help of a pair of white gloves costing a few pounds.
Houses and apartments described as luxury or prime in the U.K. capital can fetch from 1,000 pounds a square foot to more than 4,000 pounds. The widening disparity prompted property broker Knight Frank LLP to define the touches like a white- gloved doorman that separate truly elite from merely prime.
"One man's luxury is another man's commonplace," said Stephan Miles-Brown, the London-based firm's head of residential development. "People say I've got a wine cooler and a screening room; developers are saying: 'what else can we offer to attract them?'"
Luxury-home values have rebounded faster than those for other London properties, reaching a record last month, as the pound's weakness attracted overseas purchasers. Knight Frank estimates that prices for prime residences start at 2 million pounds, though you may have to pay more for one with a wine cellar, home cinema, squash court or health spa -- not to mention accommodation for the staff.
At the bottom end of Knight Frank's five tiers of luxury, a buyer should expect no less than a 24-hour concierge team, secure underground parking and a terrace or balcony. Prices are seen increasing by 500 pounds a square foot with amenities such as a wine cooler, slab marble and a ceiling at least 2.7 meters (8.9 feet) high.
'Layers of Value'
"What drives value is location, but also product, views, architecture and amenity," said Ed Lewis, director of new development sales at Savills Plc. "All these things add to the layers of value." Savills is Knight Frank's biggest competitor.
Six apartments at One Hyde Park, the luxury-condominium complex in the affluent Knightsbridge neighborhood, sold for an average of 6,000 pounds a square foot last year. That includes a view of the west London park, service from the Mandarin Oriental hotel next door and hand-painted silk wallpaper. The building was designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour and Partners, the firm that worked with Renzo Piano on Paris's Pompidou Center.
A one-bedroom duplex in the development went for 9.85 million pounds, according to the Land Registry.
"Luxury isn't enough," Miles-Brown said by telephone. People using "words like prime, super-prime and uber-prime are looking for ways to redefine the word luxury."
Gaggenau Kitchen
Having a health club, resident's wine cellar and screening room with general-release movies helps push prices into the 3,000 pounds-a-square-foot bracket. Add 500 pounds for a limousine service, a Gaggenau kitchen and a squash court.
Top-end lavishness, starting at 4,000 pounds a square foot, will be in an iconic building designed by a famous architect, such as Piano's Shard skyscraper in London, according to Knight Frank. It will include a top international hotel brand and spa operator, stores and restaurants. A white-glove doorman will serve at the internationally recognized address.
"You don't know what you want until you're offered it," Miles-Brown said.
The 72-story Shard will have about 12 apartments on floors 53 to 65. The tower will also have restaurants and offices as well as hotel rooms operated by Shangri-La Asia Ltd., Asia's biggest luxury hotelier by market value. The building is under construction in south London's Southwark neighborhood and apartments aren't yet being offered for sale.
Improved Outlook
Luxury properties in the city costing an average of 3.7 million pounds rose 8.1 percent in June from a year earlier, Knight Frank said last week, pushing its Prime Central London Index to a record. That prompted the broker to predict a gain of 9 percent for the whole of the year, up from an earlier forecast of 3 percent.
London has luxury-home developments valued at about 21 billion pounds in the pipeline, EC Harris LLP said yesterday. Investors and developers plan to build 9,000 prime apartments and houses by the end of the decade, according to the consulting firm, which is based in the city.
Rising demand is extending the upper end of the housing market beyond the central districts. Three penthouse apartments at Barratt Development Plc's Putney Square development were the first to sell for more than 1,000 pounds a square foot outside of the city center, said Gary Patrick, regional sales director at the London-based company.
Barratt, the U.K.'s largest homebuilder by volume, sold the penthouse apartments overlooking communal gardens for about 1,100 pounds a square foot compared with an average of 730 pounds a square foot for the other 157 units on the site.
"The specification and design maximizes your revenue, it doesn't create the revenue," Patrick said by phone. "If you beef up the concierge service and install a better quality kitchen, those bits and pieces can nudge up your achievable price."

I just uploaded the first stab at a new wiki addressing a problem that has come up more than once on the WSG (Web Standards Group) mailing list, as well as among W3C team folks when we shifted to utf-8. It's an interesting type of FAQ, since most of the real content is in other articles we have written, and this serves just to tie things together. That's a sign of great progress, I think. I also think this is something that helps bridge between the Getting Started folks and the diverse articles we have on the site by drawing things together for beginners.

Defying and Confronting the Hurdles to Transform My People
- Comments (6)

I have just learnt that in a Secondary School in Rukungiri district, twenty girls were found pregnant at the beginning of this school term that opened in September. While in Mbale district, 60 percent of 300 deliveries (RHU health facilities) in August 2011 occurred to teenagers aged 12-17. http://www.newvision.co.ug/D/8/17/765703
Girls are paying the price of negligence and irresponsibility!! The rise of teenage pregnancies is attributed to poverty, unemployment, the search for material wealth and ignorance of sexual health. What perturbs me is the sexual violence happening against girls by people supposed to be their guardians. Sexual abuse takes many forms including sexual harassment, unwanted sexual contacts, coercion, harassment, rape, incest, prostitution and child trafficking. I want to reach these girls, but the people around them tend to be the risk these girls face. What a challenge!
I now appreciate the statistics in Uganda which reveals that 24 percent of adolescents aged between 15-24 years had their first sex forced. And yet 3 percent of these girls are already married by 15 years and 46.3 percent by 18 years. I ask myself, 'what are these 15-year-olds doing in marriage?' It is said that the younger a girl is when she experiences sexual intercourse, the higher the chances that the sex is coerced. All these are happening in the 'eyes' of parents and guardians most of whom are preoccupied with other responsibilities.
Challenging harmful culture and religion is also tough times I face. Its pride to marry young, child bearing is the reason for marriage, educating a girl benefits the future husband…. endless list, thus need to challenge attitudes and mindsets. It's a process that will be slow and gradual.
The dilemma is the little appreciation for girl education among communities. Interventions to reach young people tend to yield less when these girls meet obstacles along the way to achieving their aspirations. I mean the environment where young people live and interact; the home and community environment is not conducive for healthy lifestyles. There is need for the linkage between community, school and home to be free from these bottlenecks. It's my desire to work towards having interventions going beyond schools. My message always is 'A person without values has no inspirations'.
Like Freidman Thomas analyses, the rise of the Internet, the creation of a global fiber-optic network, and the rapid development of long distance communication technologies has made it very easy for people all over the world to work together. It has created a global platform that has allowed more people to plug and play, collaborate and compete, share knowledge and share work, than anything we have ever seen in the history of the world. This is just spot on.
Pulsewire community is an opportunity I and my team can harness by working together across the networks to achieve our goals.
Pulsewire will propel me to achieving my vision. I am confident that the optimism I have is the faith that will lead me to achievement, for nothing can be done without hope and confidence.
It is frightening when one stops to think of the number of girls in the world under these situations: where they not valued as a person, but only as incubators.
I truly wish you the best in your endeavors in educating the masses on the worth of a *human* life, regardless of whether or not that life is male or female.

Using trauma-informed approach to help poor students
Maya Sugarman/KPCC
Preschoolers take part in a drawing exercise at Camino Nuevo Charter Academy's Burlington Campus on Wednesday, Jan. 8.
In the second part of our series "Teaching Through Trauma," KPCC's Annie Gilbertson visits Camino Nuevo, a charter school whose mission is to improve the grades—and lives—of disadvantaged students.
Los Angeles public schools — where more than 80 percent of students live in poverty — illustrate the challenges for these students. Less than half of third graders in L.A. Unified read at grade level and 20 percent of students will have dropped out by senior year.
But researchers also offer hope. They said the right interventions can make a difference. And one school in MacArthur Park is battling biology by helping children with life as well as school — to growing success.

Not only was the query about food, with nothing sexual about it, it was intriguing. Good one, I thought. But then the husbands returned and Eubanks read the question again, with a slight difference: "Of the three traffic-light colors of bell peppers -- red, yellow, or green -- which one do you prefer the most?"
The assumption, naturally, was that while the women would automatically know the colors of bell peppers, the men wouldn't and needed to be told. The women's responses were even more telling. Three out of four guessed their husbands would reply green, because, I suspect, these women were unsure whether their mates knew peppers came in other colors. Astonishingly enough, at least to their wives, these same three hubbies responded that yellow was their favorite type of bell pepper. (For the record the fourth couple didn't match answers either, but since they were in the lead, they won a second honeymoon in Jamaica.)

What this scenario illustrated to me was not that (1) I should stop taking my lunch break at 1:00, or (2) I really need to get myself a hobby, but rather that no matter how enlightened a society we become, we still hold certain perceptions about gender and food. Women are more likely to know about fruits and vegetables. Men thrive on meat and potatoes. Frozen drinks with umbrellas and maraschino cherries are femme. Beer is for boys. Finally, lest we forget, real men don't eat quiche.
I can hear my Lorraine-loving male friends laughing from here, but that wouldn't seem to bother the producers of a new microbrewed beer bottled under the label Fly by Night. They're using that old saw as a marketing tool: "Real men don't eat quiche, and they fly by night." The Texarkana Gazette recently ran a story called "Real Men Don't Eat Quiche ... They Eat Jerky." And in the Augusta Chronicle, columnist Karin Calloway came up with "A Quiche for Real Men." How? By adding ground beef, of course.
Our perceptions about what constitutes female and male dining preferences extends far beyond the quiche question. Even those who don't believe there are things such as "chick food" or "guy food" managed to come up with an example or two after a few seconds of thought. For instance Jonathan Segal, a local lawyer who dines frequently and well, initially scoffed at the idea that women and men favor certain foods based on their gender. "I don't think of food in a male-female way," he says. "I would try most things." Except for pâté, he amends. "I guess I do think pâté is more feminine, perhaps because most women I know seem to enjoy it. Personally I think liver is disgusting."
Arthur Forgette, general manager of the Smith & Wollensky steak house in Miami Beach, dismisses the supposed femininity of food items such as foie gras. "I'll eat pâté, tartare, anything," he says. But when it comes to drinks, the frilly ones are out. "I'm basically a beer-and-wine kind of guy."
Still Forgette has noticed that perceptions -- and misconceptions -- are slowly changing. "While our menu is somewhat more skewed toward the male, traditionally speaking we've noticed that the ladies order the same steaks, the same large cuts, that the guys do. And the guys have no problem ordering seared tuna." And while he admits the restaurant clientele currently is two-thirds male, he claims Smith & Wollensky, firmly in its third year of business, is seeing more female customers, especially corporate types. (Perhaps the way to break the glass ceiling is not to pound on it with a high heel but to smash it with a steak knife.)
Indeed the all-American guy knows where his beef is and eats it often. "I have trouble with my male patients who eat this way," claims Hilit Mechaber, M.D., an internist with the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial system. "Men are much more resistant to changing their diets -- giving up red meat for fish -- than women. Of course it's a gross generalization, but women willingly eat nonmeat alternatives, read labels, and buy low-fat foods. If they're not vegetarians to begin with, many men won't even consider tofu and vegan-type foods. Then there's the real chauvinist, who tells me: 'I just eat whatever my wife cooks for me.'"
Things are different in Europe, notes psychotherapist Lisa Segal (no relation to Jonathan Segal). Abroad, men are more acclimated to gourmet cuisine. "They order duck, which American men generally don't do. It's environmental and cultural," Segal emphasizes. "[American men] do have the capability to be passionate about food, but they simply don't have the exposure." Thus Eubanks has to explain the colors of bell peppers to our menfolk.
But it's not only men who hold certain perceptions dear. A new millennium feminist Website called The Third WWWave (www.io.com/~wwwave) has put out a call for "real men [who] love exotic food and aren't afraid to try new dishes." The problem with this statement is that it assumes real men won't experiment with new foodstuffs, which often is (as with every stereotype) a fallacy. Segal herself notices that while she enjoys spending time with "men who order anything with lots of different flavors," she can't help but see them "as kind of feminine." Indeed, she says frankly: "I'm impressed how many men like sushi."

The only thing I did not have was a jelly roll pan. I used an 11" by 7" glass pan. It worked perfectly. My kids LOVE this recipe. I had a similar one and lost it. This is now stored in my Allrecipes box. Thanks for sharing. ??

This is a picture of Karin Sander's "Siegfried" from the German book, Kunst in Scholade (Chocolate Art). Today's mail brought a fine new copy for the store in addition to a few more treasures:
The hot chocolate cup is my favorite. It's Austrian, made by Higgins and Seiter, translucent china with delicate roses and gold trim, and a wonderfully eccentric spiraling handle.

Watercolor is alive, the part of me that is liquid resonates with it.
Working with it is call and response, a private kirtan.
Something within urges expression,
we offer it to the brush.
The paint makes a statement (often unexpected!)
Curious and enthralled we respond.
Movement gets going.
This immediacy and vulnerablity is what I want visible in my watercolors, so I look for ways to get rid of the mat and glass. I rarely work on paper anymore. Instead, I work on specially prepared canvas so that the work remains more accessible. I am concerned about catching a moment in time, about the fleeting, ephemeral nature of even archetypal images and icons. I am not painting for posterity but to celebrate this transitory life. My work often contains handmade paper, fabric and thread as well as this most fragile of all paints, watercolor.
For subject matter I follow my heart. Right now I'm moving between three ongoing themes - ranch life and the people who do it, my love affair with Italy, and stories of the nest. These works encompass a variety of techniques - they are predominantly watercolor on canvas but some include ink resist or collage as well. I use the technique that allows the voice of the piece to speak most clearly.
My studio is in Ojai. I am a member of the Santa Barbara Art Association, a founding member of The Ojai Group, and a member of Los Padres Watercolor Association. My work can regularly be seen at OVA arts in Ojai and in my studio by appointment - 805 657-3525.
