Big Data search engine for full-text strings and photos with radius search
Elastic Hits
The Elasticsearch full-text search engine quickly finds expressions even in huge text collections. With a few tricks, you can even locate photos that have been shot in the vicinity of a reference image.
While I was looking for a search engine the other day that would crawl logs quickly, I came across Elasticsearch [1], an Apache Lucene-based full-text search engine that includes all sorts of extra goodies.
On the download page, the open source project offers the usual tarball and a Debian package. The 1.0.0.RC2 pre-release version, which was the latest when this issue went to press, can be installed without any problems on Ubuntu by typing
sudo dpkg --install *.deb. The Debian package includes a convenient boot script. When called by root at the command line as follows,

From concept to creation, this dress took a little under a week to complete. Inspired by both Pierre Cardin and an old Beatles 45 album cover, this dress uses a stretch knit and colorblock seaming.
Dress also has zipper with a decorative ribbon stitched around it.
All patterns hand-drafted by me. See the blog for more photos!
Stretch knits only.

The restriction seems to have been removed. While I vaguely remember doing so to be one of the schema 1.1 improvements, I simply want to confirm its removal was intentional since my bug did not assert that need.

It can't be beyond the wit of the Riot team to create something like this.
With the advent of the honor system, it got me thinking that, yes, its nice to be rewarded for good sportsmanship, win or lose, but honestly, all i really want is ELO.
Why can't something like this be devised? is it simply because how would you determine who "doesn't deserve to lose elo"? Because i have a feeling that Riot would have no trouble figuring out and regulating a good method for determining that.
This is coming from a person that time and time again loses games he didn't deserve to.
Also, for the record, it IS an elitist position to simply say "you belong where you are" and " if you lost you contributed to the loss"
Senior Member
While I think it might be in theory possible it would cause a lot of issues as well. How would you determine who doesn't deserve to lose Elo? Those with the highest KDA? Then you get people compeating for kills etc in games just so they don't lose Elo if they lose, rather than giving the carries kill to get them fed etc. Those with the highest gold? You then end up with people randomly farming to get their gold count up rather than pushing objectives when they should be.
Basically it would cause people to stop playing the game with their team and focus purely on not losing Elo on the off chance they lose.
I think that if someone on a losing team gets reported for AFKing, leaving or trolling and the tribunal rules against that person, everyone else on the team should get back the ELO they lost. If you're losing a game not because your team was bad but because one person put you at a disadvantage, you shouldn't be punished.
I also think they should replace the ELO system on solo/duo queue, which was designed specifically for single player games where everything was about your personal skill and luck and not that of a randomly created team. But then that's just me.
Billy. Its not a matter of wit, it's a game theory issue.
The simple fact is that you cannot create a mechanical system to award "skill" or the representation of skill through anything other than a straight win. This is why professional sports organizations have networks of farm teams and scouts globally searching for talent
If you could incorporate moderators to watch every match unbiased. Maybe you could add that idea but its just unnecessary.
The thing here is we gotta look at perspective. At any elo bracket. You will have players who can compete at a slightly higher level. And some who are a little over their head. However until you are about 2k maybe 2.1k elo (season 2 numbers) there are too many things you could be working on that it's just unnecessary. The ranges are just too small. There are no gold players stuck in bronze. Even at high elo the ones stuck at 2100 are still probably less creative than the 2500s. The only difference is they start becoming much more team synergy qualities that become valuable over diverse skills needed to reach nosebleed elo

Montefiore- Interview Process - page 8
Hi all. Was hoping someone could help describe the interview process to me at Montefiore. I am a new graduate, and have an interview with HR this week. Do they hire right on the spot after the interview with HR? Also, if I am... Read More
- 0Mar 25, '13 by HighlyBlessedRNI would definitely not leave but I would definitely consider part time at Montefiore even though I'm beginning to question their level of professionalism. Im so happy for you and wish u all the best at your new job. =)
- 0Mar 25, '13 by SherluckyRNQuote from estrellaCRCongrats estrellacr. I m happy for you. Which unit will you work in? I don't know the NYC hospitals take forever to get back to people. I don't live too far from Kings County and its a great learning hospital. Best of luckHi HIghlyBlessed, haven't heard back from MOntefiore yet. My background check is cleared and I'm starting at Kings County next week, I'm happy. Also now its would be too late for me to reconsider Montefiore if I do hear back from them as they took really long in the whole process. If you get offer from them would you leave Yale? Since You just started there.
- 0Mar 26, '13 by estrellaCRThank you, SherluckyRN! I will be in Maternal Infant Health inpatient. HHC takes about 3 weeks to 2 months to call you in for interview, depends on the hospital. Kings County was faster than other HHCs. Montefiore though not an HHC is quite slow as well in terms of hearing back with result of interview. I think all hospitals are overwhelmed with the amount of applicants as there are a lot of new grads seeking jobs as well as soon, there will be a lot of experienced nurses from hospitals that are closing (i.e. LICH and Westchester Square) or downsizing (Downstate).
I would advise continuing education such as ACLS and NRP certifications and other classes. These along with health-care related work and/or volunteer experience help you stand out in the application process.
- 0Apr 26, '13 by CanuckRN2Hey all! I was offered a job at Montefiore last week and accepted yesterday. I appreciated reading all of your comments, so I'll shed some light on how I went about the process.
I specifically applied for a job on the "Highlighted Job Opportunities" page, under "Careers." I sent my resume and a brief cover letter of sorts directly to the respective nurse recruiter. Two weeks later, I received a call directly from the nurse manager asking me to come in for an interview. In those two weeks, I heard nothing from the nurse recruiter, despite sending an email and leaving a message on her phone. I imagine, as someone previously stated, that the recruiters are incredibly overwhelmed.
Anyway, the interview was very casual and at the end, I was offered a job on the spot. It seems like a very supportive environment and I'm excited to start.
I hope that this helps someone, or sheds some light on the process. Good luck to everyone applying. Trust me - I understand how frustrating the NYC job market is.
- 0Apr 26, '13 by estrellaCRCongrats CanuckRN2. Are you an experienced RN? Or do you have significant related experience such ad EMT or CNA? Most if not all of people on this thread are new grads with no hospital experience. This makes a big difference in the hiring process. Experienced nurses (or with connections or with EMT/CNA exp) have it a lot easier and faster. As per what I see on this thread all the new grads or people with no hospital exp had to go thru HR interview first and 2 to 3 months later, finally get interview with nurse manager.
- 0Jul 22, '13 by Ava M.Hi! I have an interview at Monte this coming week. Did they give you the medication exam the day of your interview? Or did you have a few days to prepare before your exam? I have terrible test anxiety and the possibilty of having an exam the day of my interview makes me very nervous!!!
- 0Jan 28 by IamsophialeeHi. I was following up with your thread and was wondering what kind of questions you had for the basic nursing questions with montefiore. I got interview with them this coming Thursday and I am excited, at the same time nervous. I don't want to risk my chances. If I can get any informations, it would be very helpful. Any tips, interview questions and whatnot. Thanks

******* love my cats, but about 3 months ago one of my cats disappeared. We looked everywhere for him. After a couple of weeks we decided that he must have been run over/attacked by a fox etc. I was devastated and I mourned him, he was the most amazing cat, properly strange and twisted (he was rescued as a kitten from a pig pen where he had to fight pigs for food), he was the most ******* hilarious cat. I was truly crushed. Over time however I recovered, and after 2 months it didn't burn so badly. So you can imagine my surprise when he walked through my front door 2 weeks ago and acted like nothing happened. I've never been so happy. I got my cat back! I just wanted to give people a smile rather than a feel.

My birthday was on a Wednesday, when I was still in Myrtle Beach, and I would go back home the following Friday. I hadn't seen my two cats, Princess and Charming, all week. When I finally returned home on Friday, the first thing I did was look for my cats. I could only find Charming. Princess was an expert at hiding around the house, so I knew what was up. Every time I would mention her name, my Mom would just sort of give me this odd look. She told me Princess had died two days prior to my return. She was acting odd and my Mom knew something was wrong, so she took her to the vet, but Princess had to be put down. I felt like I never really got to say goodbye. Our pets are more than just pets, they're our family. I love you, Princess.
TL;DR My cat died on my birthday.

... day we decided to explore the town with our friends Ed and Diane who showed up early in the morning. We walked through the sleepy town. Our first stop was at the grocery store. The grocery store was very small and all the vegetables in the single fridge was empty. The nice owner told us that the mail boat had not come yet and was not expected to come for another 2-3 days. I guess we will be eating canned vegetables until we can get to another store.

Refunds May Cost Airlines $600K a Month
To put these numbers into perspective, however, keep in mind that airlines reaped more than $3 billion per year from baggage fees last year. Delta alone earned some $952 million from baggage fees, yet by our calculations would have lost just $600,000 in May. If we assumed Delta lost this much each month, that would still only be $7.2 million in lost revenue for the year, or less than one-hundredth of what it takes in from baggage fees.

Mats Daehli had the chance to return to Manchester United, but is convinced that Cardiff City are the right club for him.
The Norwegian midfielder was brought back to British football in January by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, as he looked to his homeland for new recruits shortly after inheriting the Bluebirds reins.
Cardiff were able to convince the 19-year-old that Wales was the perfect destination for him, despite United holding an option on his services.
With Daehli having previously spent time in the youth ranks at Old Trafford, the Red Devils had first refusal once it became clear that he would be moving on.
The youngster worked with Solskjaer at former employers Molde, though, and believes another spell under the ex-United striker will be of greater benefit to his ongoing development.
He said: "I went to Manchester United as a 15-year-old and it was my dream to play for them.
"But I know the Cardiff manager so well and wanted to play for him again.
"It felt safe to choose Ole. He knows me and what I stand for as a player. I was sure that he would give me the chance, and he did. So I believe that I did the right choice."
Solskjaer is delighted to have Daehli at his disposal again, with it his opinion that the Norway international has the potential to become one of the Premier League's top creative influences.
He said of a player who has already been likened to David Silva and Samir Nasri: "I don't wish to compare him to others and he doesn't need any extra pressure, but he is the type of player who likes to get between defensive lines, take people on and create openings.
"When you look at the Nasris, Silvas and that type of player, you look at Mats and think he could end up as similar in his style.
"Signing for Manchester United was an option for him, but he chose Cardiff and that shows how much he wants to succeed for this club."
With the backing of his boss, Daehli is now looking to kick on and prove that he can be a key performer in the English top flight.
He added on his time at Cardiff so far: "It's gone okay. It's a level up from the Norwegian League and I have to adapt, but I've loved it.
"To be honest, I did not know what to expect of English football.
"But I'll always have belief in myself and that I can do well for Cardiff City.
"Every time I go onto the pitch my aim is to show that I should start the next game. That is what's important for me."

the best poker bonus codes in 2014- free poker money - free no-deposit bonus codes at USA poker sites 2014
Updated In December, 2014 - Most of the time when you find a poker bonus code in 2014 and you try to use it you will find out that the code is not valid. The bonus code may be expired or it may not provide the bonuses that you were led to believe or perhaps it was never even a active bonus code at the poker room to begin with. I've found that most poker room bonus codes advertised at poker and gambling affiliate portals fall into one of these categories. Most of them are simply expired and that is what prompted to me launch this web site. Why create a web site with "2014" in the domain? On January 1st, 2015, the website will be junk and no one will visit it because they will think that the poker site bonus codes only worked in 2014.The reason I opted to use such a limited, disposable domain name is that my visitors will know that my 2014 poker bonus codes are active and valid. They will know that the information found on this site is up to date, that my list of US poker sites is current. Most online poker site affiliate programs have phased out the use of bonus codes, sign up codes, promo codes, marketing codes, coupon codes, referral codes and promotional codes, whatever you happen to call them. The reason for this is an advance made in link-based tracking. In 2014 most poker rooms have started giving affiliates bonus codes that are embedded in the affiliate link so new users will not even see a spot to enter a bonus code if they clicked an affiliate link because the bonus code and welcome package is automatically attributed to the player's account. This has drastically cut down on the number of poker players who were not credited with the bonus they were expecting due to tracking issues and mistakes made while entering the poker bonus code in 2014. I will be adding guides on each of our poker room bonus codes but as of right now I only have this Pokerstars bonus code 2014 guide which explains how to use our three codes at Poker Stars.
Our exclusive 2014 poker bonus codes are embedded in our tracking links at almost every poker room listed below. New players at Pokerstars will need to enter two codes to claim our free poker money, MTT tickets and deposit bonus in 2014. Bonus codes are needed at 1-2 other poker sites but for the most part you will only need to use our link to visit the poker room and create an account in order to claim our exclusive sign up bonuses in 2014. This site will focus on U.S. poker bonus codes in 2014 but we also have some no-deposit casino bonus codes and no deposit bingo bonus codes to share as well. There is a lot of free poker money up for grabs right now. Most of the rooms listed below are U.S. poker sites in 2014. Almost all of the big USA poker rooms in 2014 are represented below. Our poker bonus codes and links provide new players with special welcome bonuses, free incentives and no-deposit poker bonuses in 2014. If you visited the online poker site directly you would not see our exclusive bonus deals listed anyway because they are specially negotiated deals that are much better than the standard welcome bonus. Our poker site bonus codes offer everything from 27% rakeback to free monthly poker training membership ($30 value) to free poker money without a deposit to tickets to private poker tournaments with big prize pools.

Featured U.S. poker site bonus codes in 2014 - best USA poker room bonus deals
Our of the eight online poker sites listed above six of them are poker sites that accept USA players. Our 2014 USA poker room bonus codes and bonus links give new players all kinds of incentives but one stands out above the rest. Bovada Poker bonus code is embedded into our tracking link so you will not have to do anything beyond using our link to visit Bovada Poker and signing up. Bovada Poker is by far the biggest US poker site in 2014. They are basically twice the size of the next 3 largest USA friendly poker rooms combined. Our Bovada Poker bonus code brand new players with three separate incentives including a 100%bonus up to $1,000, tickets to the $100,000 GTD tournaments and 50 Poker Points. The 50 poker points are available to new players even if they do not make a deposit and can be used to buy into real money tourneys. We have two other US poker room bonus codes that I want to outline here. Our Bet Online Poker bonus code POKERNEW gives you a 200% bonus up to $2,000, a risk-free $25 live dealer casino bet, $50 risk-free mobile bet, risk-free $25 horse race bet and a risk-free $25 live in-play sports bet.

Top 2 International poker room bonus codes in 2014 - best EU poker site bonus code deals
We have special bonus codes setup at the top two international poker rooms in 2014. Out of every online poker site in 2014 that is not open to Americans, Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker are the largest, by far. Our Pokerstars bonus code 2014 and Full Tilt Poker bonus code in 2014 offer free poker money, freeroll tickets and huge deposit bonuses. Using our bonus code or link at Fulltilt Poker in 2014 will give you a $20 nodeposit poker bonus and a $600 bonus. We also have several 2014 Pokerstars bonus codes for you to choose from. The first Poker Stars bonus code in 2014 that you should enter is for a $20 instant cash credit. Simply deposit $20 and you will receive $40. This is not bonus money, you can use it immediately. Then when you make your second deposit and third deposit you can enter our other Poker Stars bonus code for 100% bonuses up to $600. Our Pokerstars.com bonus code for 2014 is a good example of why most online poker sites have started embedding bonus codes into tracking links. You will need to enter three Pokerstars codes in 2014 to claim out exclusive bonuses. This process can be pretty confusing and mistakes are often made. Here are the directions for claiming our bonuses and using our bonus codes and marketing code at Pokerstars in 2014.
- Step 1 - Visit Pokerstars.com with this link and download the software.
- Step 2 - Create a new account. One the first registration page you will see a pull down menu on the bottom in the "How did you hear about us?" section. Choose the marketing code option and enter our 2014 Pokerstars marketing code PSP11820. Then proceed to create your account.
- Step 3 - On the deposit page enter the Pokerstars bonus code FREE20. This gives you an instant $20 cash credit and you only need to deposit $20. You can use this free poker cash right away.
- Step 4 - When you are ready to make your second deposit enter the 2014 Poker Stars bonus code STARS600. This provides a 100% match bonus up to $600. You can also use it on you next deposits until you have claimed three bonuses. They combine so that three $200 deposits will give you the full $600 in free Pokerstars money.
Our Full Tilt Poker bonus code is embedded into our link so it is much easier to claim. Our exclusive 2014 Fulltilt Poker bonus includes $20 free, no deposit needed. Instead of cash Full Tilt will give you ring table, sitngo and tournament vouchers. You can use these at regular real money tables. To claim this just use our link to visit Full Tilt Poker in 2014 and sign up. When you are ready to deposit you will receive a 100% bonus up to $600.
2014 Casino Bonus Codes
If you want some free no deposit bonuses in 2014 we have a couple of them to share. Our online 2014 casino bonus code for the Win Palace Casino gives users a $25 no deposit bonus which is instantly available. We also have a $25 no deposit bonus at Downtown Bingo, a popular US bingo site. Our best no-deposit bonus code is for the Golden Cherry Casino and it is included in our link. You can choose between $20 free (no deposit needed) or $333 free for 33 minutes, you keep any winnings. Both casinos are open to players from the USA in 2014. Between these bingo and casino bonus codes in 2014 and our poker bonus codes in 2014 you can claim thousands of dollars in free money, bonus money and other incentives at the best online poker rooms, casinos and bingo sites. If you win money using these nodeposit bonus codes and links you can actually cash out the winnings without having to meet unfair wagering requirements.

tip for claiming free poker bonus using our bonus codes and links in 2014
Since many of our poker bonus codes, casino bonus codes, no-deposit poker bonus codes and such are embedded into our tracking links you may want to clear your web history and/or cookies before clicking on our bonus link. This is because if you have visited any of the online poker rooms, casinos or bingo sites in the last 6 months there may be another affiliate's tracking cookie saved on your computer. If this is the case you will probably just receive the standard bonus deal, which usually doesn't include free money. You will want to bookmark this web site before you clear your history so you can come back and click on our poker bonus link. Even at the online poker sites where we have a bonus code it is still very important that you also use our link to visit the poker site initially.

FRENCHTOWN TOWNSHIP – Fire this morning ignited in an unoccupied house that apparently is being remodeled on N. Telegraph Rd. just north of the junction.
Frenchtown Township Fire Chief Mark Nicholai reported about 25 percent of the house sustained fire damage while much of the rest was damaged by smoke and heat. No one was living at the house at the time.
Cause of the fire is being investigated by the Monroe County Fire Investigation Team. The call came in around 7:50 a.m. and firefighters were on the scene more than two hours. No one was injured, the chief said.
The fire appeared to have started inside the house in a northeast corner room.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Trending that caught Doug's eye... ill-starred couples
Call us old-fashioned, but some things were just meant to go together.
Take fish and chips, for example. On their own, they're fine, but put them together and, well, it's a marriage made in heaven. It's the same story with peanut butter and jelly, spaghetti and meatballs, bacon and eggs, gin and tonic, Bert and Ernie, and, well, you get the idea.
But of all the things that go together, it's hard to think of two that were a better match than legendary 1970s husband-and-wife pop duo the Captain and Tennille.
We hate to pull the rug out from under your ordered universe, but on Jan. 6, Toni Tennille, 73, filed papers to end her marriage to "Captain" Daryl Dragon, 71.
The split is especially painful because the couple became the icons for everlasting love in 1975 with their worldwide hit Love Will Keep Us Together, wherein they passionately sing: "Love, love will keep us together/Think of me babe whenever/Some sweet-talking girl comes along singing her song/Don't mess around/You gotta be strong."
That brings a tear to our eyes, as opposed to their 1976 hit Muskrat Love -- "Muskrat Susie, Muskrat Sam do the jitterbug out in muskrat land" -- which just burrows into our ear canal and plays on a continuous loop in our brain.
Sadly, love couldn't keep them together, and it didn't do much for the following five ill-starred couples:
5) The combatants --Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren
Their time together -- Oct. 5, 2004-Aug. 23, 2010
The road to Splitsville -- When it came to playing around, the world's best golfer didn't always keep it on the course. The marriage crashed and burned in the early hours of Dec. 3, 2009, when Tiger slammed his Cadillac Escalade into a tree outside his Florida home. Swedish model Nordegren famously used a golf club to bash in one of the SUV's back windows, telling police she was trying to help her husband escape. The crash came after a tabloid published a story about Tiger's affair with a nightclub promoter. In short order, multiple mistresses came forward. "I was unfaithful, I had affairs and I cheated," Tiger finally confessed.
The settlement -- Nordegren reportedly walked away with something in the range of $100-$110 million after the divorce. Tiger lost his family and tons of sponsorship cash.
4) The combatants -- Sir Paul McCartney and Heather Mills
Their time together -- June 11, 2002-March 17, 2008
The road to Splitsville -- Forget the Beatles song, love wasn't all this troubled couple needed. Things started smoothly when Paul and Heather got hitched, with two rainbows reportedly topping the horizon at their lavish $3.2-million wedding in Ireland. Six years later, it was cold and dreary when a London judge ended their marriage. It was a nasty divorce, with both sides flinging accusations ranging from infidelity to gold-digging to phone-tapping to drug abuse. At one point, the model-turned-activist poured a jug of water over the head of one of McCartney's lawyers and reportedly shouted: "You're a b -! You're a traitor to your sex!" "There'll be no more nagging, no more chaos, no more Heather -- bliss. I have peace at last," McCartney was quoted as saying after the divorce was finalized.
The settlement -- Mills was awarded about $48.6 million by a family court judge, far less than the $250 million she sought.
3) The combatants -- Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton
Their time together -- 1964-74 and 1975-76
The road(s) to Splitsville -- Liz and Dick had it all: beauty, glamour, yachts, jewels and some spectacular fights during a turbulent, scandal-filled love story that saw them marry and divorce twice. It all began when they were filming Cleopatra in 1963 while Taylor was still married to singer Eddie Fisher and Burton was married to actress Sybil Williams. Burton boasted he would bed his co-star "within the first two days," but it reportedly took five. Their first on-screen kiss lasted so long the director had to ask whether he could say "cut." Their first marriage ended when Burton was unfaithful with a young co-star. Sixteen months later, they were back together, but so were the fights. "You can't keep clapping a couple of sticks of dynamite together without expecting them to blow up," Burton said at the time. They divorced again in 1976, but never stopped being friends.
The settlement -- Their 10-year marriage ended "without tears and with a friendly agreement about sharing the family fortunes," the L.A. Times reported in 1974.
2) The combatants -- Rupert Murdoch and Anna Maria Torv and Wendi Deng
Their time together -- 1967-99 with Torv; 1999-2013 with Deng
The road(s) to Splitsville -- Australian media mogul Murdoch gets bonus points for appearing twice on most lists of famous, expensive divorces. In what was considered the most expensive split at the time, Rupert and Anna ended their marriage of 32 years in 1999. Just 17 days after his divorce, Rupert tied the knot with Wendi Deng, 38 years his junior. Here's a surprise: The aging mogul ended his 14-year marriage to the Chinese-born businesswoman last year.
The settlement -- Murdoch gave $1.7 billion (yes, billion) of his fortune, including $110 million in cash) to Anna, while his settlement with Wendi was not disclosed.
1) The combatants -- Alec and Jocelyn Wildenstein
Their time together -- 1978-1999
The road to Splitsville -- You've probably never heard of this pair, but their wacky divorce is rated by Wikipedia as the most expensive in history. Things apparently started going wrong when the New York socialite walked in on her French billionaire art-dealer husband and a 19-year-old Russian model in the bedroom of their home, and he threatened her with a gun because, as Alec said in court, he thought he'd caught a burglar. Dubbed "the Bride of Wildenstein," Jocelyn rose to fame when it was revealed she'd spent about $4 million on cosmetic surgery. Now known as "Catwoman," her face was made to resemble an exotic wild cat, because -- try to follow the logic here -- she knew her husband liked big cats and she feared he was going to leave her.
The settlement -- Hold your breath because, the socialite ended up with a $2.5-billion settlement, along with $100 million each year for 13 years after that.
The last word -- We really have nothing to say, because we know divorce is painful for everyone, especially the kids. We personally are not going to break the bad news to Muskrat Susie and Muskrat Sam.

6 Drug Stocks Unworthy of Biotech Bull Market
Cytori Therapeutics (CYTX)
Stock return since Jan. 1: 96%
Cytori's base business of selling machines and related consumables that turn belly blubber into stem cell- enriched fat grafts for breast reconstruction and other soft tissue repair is hurting. While fourth-quarter results haven't been released yet, lower-than-expected sales in the third quarter and mounting losses offer little hope of a turnaround from what was a bad 2011.Simply put, Cytori is having trouble convincing doctors in Europe and Japan to buy their expensive stem-cell fat graft machines. And even when doctors do buy the device, they're not using it very much, or at all, because procedures aren't being reimbursed. (Most likely because Cytori has yet to provide convincing clinical data to prove that stem cell-enriched belly fat is superior in any way to "regular" fat.") The U.S. remains a closed market for Cytori because regulators here won't allow the company's machine to be sold without first demonstrating a real clinical benefit for patients. Meantime, Cytori continues to burn cash and raise money though dilutive stock sales in order to keep its unprofitable business afloat. Simultaneously, the company is funding large, expensive clinical trials in indications like heart repair following heart attack that will take years to fully enroll. Cytori shares closed Tuesday down 6% to $4.05.

Sony's next film will star Reverend Al Sharpton
By now most of America has at least heard of the racially charged email exchange between Sony executive Amy Pascal and Scott Rudin. The embarrassing exchange made public by hackers shows Pascal and Rudin mocking President Barack Obama's possible taste in films. Pascal, when jokingly asked by Rudin if he thinks Obama would like to invest in some movies responded: "I doubt it. Should I ask him if he liked 'DJANGO?'" After which, a sarcastic Rudin responded: "12 Years." The two didn't end there as Pascal continued: "Or 'The Butler.' Or 'Think like a man?'" Rudin fired back:

Mayor unveils jobs program
Construction training and placement part of Employ Miami-Dade program
Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez noted a phenomenon from the office where he sits: the construction cranes peppering the skies over the county. "Do you see that?" Gimenez said, pointing at the construction activity in downtown Miami outside the window of his hi-rise office. "That's jobs, and there is no reason why these developers need to import workers when we have workers right here." Enter Employ Miami-Dade, the mayor's first job's initiative, which is supposed to be the go-between for locals to get workplace readiness training and ultimately jobs. Right now, Employ Miami-Dade is targeting the construction industry. But Gimenez understands cronyism.
Robert 'Bob' Simms, 87, dies in Alabama
Miami-Dade County just learned it lost a front-runner for Miami's Blacks who worked to bridge the gaps in understanding between integrating communities. Robert "Bob" Simms died in Tuscaloosa, Ala. Dec. 16. He was 87. Born in Alabama in 1927, Simms moved to Miami in 1953 for a job at George Washington Carver schools. It was there that he met Clyde Stephens Sr. The two instantly hit it off, becoming fishing buddies who planned trips for decades, even after being separated by the integration of schools in the early '60s.

"Parent Choice" in education can help many families today
When I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in the mid 90's, I moved to New York City. And I did what most young folks did them: found the cheapest apartment I could afford in the nicest neighborhood possible. That place was a first-floor front studio near Central Park. The block was lovely, but I lived in the worst building on it. Sanitation workers used to wake me up when they threw the cans against my outside windows. In the winter, I heated the place with my open stove. And if anything broke, it took forever to get it fixed.

On opening night, Dec. 11, Sinclair's older sister Ayanna, and her cousin who is like her brother, looked on. "I was so happy that family got to see me perform; that was an awesome feeling," Sinclair said.
II've Been Thinking What About You?
Death, racism on my mind
Lately my thoughts have been all over the place; here are a few examples. To start with, many people as well as President Barack Obama have suggested that police officers wear body cameras to record their interactions with citizens and I totally agree. What I don't get is why do some people have a problem with this, especially law enforcement officers. You would think that if you are a good, honest cop you would be in favor of the use of body cams, which could be one of the greatest witnesses ever when dealing with situations, including the madness that took place in Ferguson, Missouri and in other parts of the country.
Natural Bridge teacher becomes author of book
Times-Dudley penned 'Jasper, the Fetching Cat' under Candace Lynn
Robbin Times-Dudley recently fulfilled her long-time goal of becoming a children's book author. "Jasper, the Fetching Cat," her first book written under the pen name Candace Lynn, was featured during the recent 2014 Miami Book Fair. Jasper has the "purrfect" home and family. Mr. Ford, while relaxing in his favorite chair, pats Jasper on the head. Mrs. Ford gives him cat treats whenever he begs for them. Best of all, 8-year-old Timmy is the "purrfect" owner. Then, a new puppy, Toby, arrives and spoils the "purrfection." He cries at night, chews things, drools too much, and keeps drinking from Jasper's water dish. Yuck! What's a feline to do?

The YAC applications, which were due Dec. 8, represent one of several changes to the agency spawning from recently updated bylaws.

After early evening rain showers postponed the start of Saturday night's race at Richmond International Raceway, Ambrose lined up for the 400-mile event in the 22nd position with one thing on his mind, a trip to Victory Lane. A win in Saturday night's race would have secured Ambrose a wild-card spot in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, but ultimately Lady Luck would not smile on Ambrose as he finished the Federated Auto Parts 400 in the 15th position, just 42 points shy of making the Chase.
With the track still damp from the earlier rain, Ambrose and the rest of the 42-car field started the race under yellow flag conditions. After running the initial laps of the race under caution, the Mac Tools Ford finally took the green flag for the first time at Lap 6. Picking up two positions by Lap 25, Ambrose relayed to his crew that the car needed better forward drive off. A competition caution at Lap 47 allowed teams to come down pit road to access their car's handling, and Crew Chief Todd Parrott called for four tires, fuel and trackbar and air pressure adjustments for the No.9 machine.
Shortly after the green flag restart on Lap 50, Ambrose relayed to his crew that the changes made on the previous stop seemed to improve the car's handling slightly. Ambrose moved up as far as 18th before his tires began to wear and he communicated to his crew that he had no rear grip and was having trouble turning in the middle of the corners. A long green flag run coupled with handling issues caused Ambrose to fall a lap down to the leaders in the early stages of the race.
Having slipped back to the 25th position, Parrott called Ambrose into the pits on Lap 131 under green for four tires, fuel and wedge, air pressure and trackbar adjustments. Pitting before the leader under green, Ambrose lost another lap and was scored in 30th, two laps down, when the yellow flag flew for light rain showers on Lap 139. The leaders all came down pit road under caution and Ambrose elected not to pit and took the 'wave around' to get one of his laps back.
The light rain shower became heavier and the caution turned into a red flag period. The field was stopped on pit road for just under an hour before restarting on Lap 155. Ambrose was still scored in 30th, one lap down when he took the green flag.
With rain likely to fall again, Ambrose knew he had to make his way toward the front of the field quickly and attempt to put himself in the 'Lucky Dog' position if the caution were to come out again. The handling of Ambrose's car seemed to improve greatly after the red flag delay and he had driven his way to the 19th position at Lap 277 when the yellow flag again flew for light rain on the track.
Parrott elected to bring Ambrose into the pits under caution and the Richard Petty Motorsports crew added four tires, fuel and some tape to the nose of the Mac Tools Ford. The lightning quick stop by the crew allowed Ambrose to gain one position in the pits and he restarted in 18th, the first car a lap down.
Ambrose remained in the 'Lucky Dog' position for the next 45 laps, but the caution flag never flew. The longer the green flag run went, the more cars the leader began to put a lap down, and Ambrose fell out of the free pass position. Though he was one lap down, Ambrose ran as high as 10th before having to come to the pits one final time under green for four tires and fuel on Lap 356.
Restarting in 18th as the rest of the field cycled though green flag stops, Ambrose refused to give up and continued to pass lap down cars for position. The caution flag would never wave again, and Ambrose took the checkered flag in the 15th position one lap down. Only 11 cars finished the race on the lead lap as Clint Bowyer claimed the victory. Kasey Kahne clenched the first wild-card spot by virtue of having two wins this season. Jeff Gordon secured the second spot with a second place finish Saturday night, knocking Busch, Edwards, Ambrose and Newman out of contention. Ultimately, Ambrose fell 42 points shy of making the Chase, but his 15th-place finish moves him to 15th in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver point standings with 10 races remaining in the season.
Comments from Ambrose after Richmond: "I just tried my hardest tonight and it wasn't our night. We had a bad car early on and went two laps down and had to fight our way back to the top-15. I will take that. Obviously we wanted the win, but it wasn't meant to be tonight. I'm proud of my Mac Tools team, even though we didn't have the car to win tonight, nobody gave up, and we were able to make adjustments on the car to make it better throughout the night. We've achieved a lot this year, and there are still other opportunities for us to win throughout the remaining races."

Yahoo! Inc. (YHOO:US), owner of the largest U.S. Web portal, said it doesn't support the board nominees put forward by shareholder Third Point LLC.
The company has received notice that Third Point and its affiliates intend to nominate four directors, Sunnyvale, California-based Yahoo said today in a filing (YHOO:US) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Shareholders should approve its own 10 board nominees instead, Yahoo said.
"The Third Point nominees are not endorsed by our board of directors," Yahoo said. "We urge shareholders not to vote any proxy card or voting instruction form that you may receive from or on behalf of the Third Point Entities."
Yahoo, which has come under investor scrutiny as it has lost ground to rivals Google Inc. (GOOG:US) and Facebook Inc. (FB:US), is facing a proxy fight with Third Point, which owns about 5.8 percent of the company and wants to get the four nominees, including its Chief Executive Officer Daniel Loeb, onto the board. New CEO Scott Thompson, who joined in January, is trying to drive a turnaround by focusing on growth and shrinking costs.
Former CEO Carol Bartz, who was ousted in September, received a compensation package of $16.4 million in 2011, an increase from $11.9 million in 2010, according to the filing. Bartz received a $3 million severance payment as part of the package.
Yahoo rose less than 1 percent to $15.57 at the close in New York. The shares have fallen 3.5 percent this year.
