GT1 World Championship: Preview the season finale in San Luis
Two teams and two driver combinations can still become champions on the scenic railway at Potrero de los Funes - but just as exciting is the question of the future of the GT (1) -World Cup ...
Full optimally planning the calendar of the GT1 organizers is not: there are two of months between the penultimate race weekend in China, and the season finale in Argentina - so long pauses are not good to keep the series in memory of the audience. Slightly more organizational skills Stephane Ratel has to prove if it in 2012 should be a GT World Championship - his improvised change of course in recent months to keep up with those of the great policy in the euro crisis all, and the goal is the same: to do everything to meet the needs of the market, so it next year yet somehow continues.
Given later, after all, it is in the heart of Argentina also to elect a master. At first glance it is a duel between Young Driver Aston Martin and JR Motorsports Nissan. The initial situation is, however, so that in the end all could at least go halfway home happy: in the drivers' standings are Lucas Luhr and Michael Krumm (JR Motorsport) eleven points ahead of Darren Turner and Stephen mosquito (Young Driver), in the team standings, each team earning points for both vehicles, the German Young Driver AMR-team the nose to eight counter forward.
The requirement for two exciting races would be given purely mathematically - but the GT1 World Championship is just one of a series in which success ballast is used and that will make two championship contenders life difficult. 55 extra kilos must Mücke and Turner after the victory in Beijing drag around the course, 30kg, there are Krumm and Luhr for. The Team colleagues are also well loaded: Enge / Muller (Young Driver) with 30kg, Westbrook / Dumbreck (JR Motorsports) with 15kg.
The championship decision is therefore not likely to fall at the top of the field, but on the points behind: which of the two teams, in spite of the additional weight more points to go home? Except Maxime Martin / Yann Clairay whose MarcVDS Ford GT is also loaded with 35kg, all the other competitors are free of such restrictions.
A small computational championship chance also have Basseng and Markus Winkelhock All-Inkl.com-Lamborghini, which have eased somewhat unfortunately in the second half of the season, as well as high nobility / Piccini for Hexis AMR: win one of the two duos both race and score Luhr / Krumm maximum of two points, the title could go surprisingly to Germany or France. One also rather small chance of Hexis Aston Martin still on the team standings: since each team here are two cars in the game, and all four competition cars as states are laden with success ballast, could here still quite a turn in favor of the French be possible who have always been impressed in the season with quick pit stops.
Enough medium and fast corners, the 2008 revived all the way around the crater, so that the weight could play a decisive role. As a reference, to be called the race of the year: then the Young Driver duo Turner / Enge at Interlagos had cleared. The resulting ballast they managed at the season finale not even into the second qualifying segment, which resulted in 10 and 15 races in places, while Hexis AMR won both races. For the French Aston Martin team's chances are not bad ...
The route character described results from the fact that the course is composed predominantly of roads that lead around the lake, a real old-school track so: the scenery is beautiful, the height differences in size and the walls close, created even if well calculated run-out zones were to allow a FIA-run there. In two places, unfortunately, had to be installed harassment, but can ruin your day at the track just a little. Overtaking on such routes but unfortunately not the easiest exercise, but it is possible for GT cars all.
So the DBR9 goes well on said faster route, the dashing curves are the in the tooths British sports car, for it will be the last race. Thus, an era ends: 2005 won the DBR9 developed by Prodrive / Aston Martin Racing in his debut race, the 12 Hours of Sebring. This was followed by Le Mans victories in 2007 and 2008 as well as various team and drivers' title in LM (e) S and FIA GT. In 2010 could reach third place in the GT1 class at the Young Driver guest appearance at Le Mans.
The competition (or at least one of the two) would in any case a nice ending for the service of this model. But Nissan would have deserved all this, because the GT-R has also proven to be a good GT car, and also the GT3 version will be featured in the next few years at the helm of various series. A true comparison of the car is due balance of performance, of course, nonsense.
The BoP was largely stable over the course of 2011, no changes have been made since May it: after a half season officials were satisfied with the level of performance. This has greatly enhanced when it is remembered in comparison to the quarrels to the beginning of the 2010 season, as Nissan still threatened with getting the 2011 season.
Next year could again be problematic in terms of the BoP. For then will be at the start as this season definitely not the same six vehicles. Who will however be exactly at the start, is still unclear. It was announced in the summer should be even and old GT2 cars as well as the numerous GT3 models start footing with the current GT1 cars from Nissan, Ford and Lamborghini with an upgrade kit. It is reported a number of teams in time for Ratels deadline, with another one is in talks: 20 vehicles by ten producers, that was the goal.
But as this number does not seem to let muster, Ratel changed the concept: now the successful GT3 regulations should be the basis for the World Cup, with some minor modifications and transitional arrangements for the GT1 cars from Nissan, Ford and Lamborghini, with MarcVDS and their satellite team Belgian Racing off anyway, to focus on the Blancpain Endurance Series.
But the abrupt exit MarcVDS-falsified and finally his thesis, private teams are more reliable than factory teams, so he always excluded the latter for his series. But at the end of the privateers economic constraints are of course also subject as large groups: is not worth a series of cost-benefit factor ago, the exit is the result. There were nonsensical restrictions like the one that forced four vehicles of any sort would be at the start, or in 2012, two per model.
The "final" ultimatum for enrollments ran until the end of October - the fan base should therefore must expect that Ratel announced as part of the season finale, as it is now 2012 in terms of "World Cup" continues.
Either way, the last two races this short GT1 era, should the weekend sports car fans and those who want to be there, definitely look: the cars are great, the route well and the championship fight is probably due to the weight for exciting fights provide in midfield, while arguing in front of other teams to victory. And, who knows, maybe Hexis AMR succeed wonder still turn in the title fight actually ...
The two races are too europe-ready times on Saturday and Sunday at 17:45 clock instead and can be seen in the live stream on gt1world.com. Sport 1 is only partially live performances, the times are given in the TV schedule.

By any chance is Mary Susan Gately, b 1/12/1849 in Madison TN and d 1/20/1917, the daughter of John and Nancy Gately? I have census information that John and Nancy had a daughter named Mary, but not any more proof. Mary married Isaac Shelby Skelton, b 4/3/1844 d 4/17/1920, and they lived in Springfield, Greene County MO. Isaac and Mary are my wife's gggrandparents. I have very little information on Mary. If it is their daughter, I have additional information I'd be willing to share on their family. If so, I'd also love to see some of the other information you have on John and Nancy's families. I had tried for 5+ years to find more information on Mary, and have come up empty handed. Any information would be greatly appreciated......thanks. Notify Administrator about this message?

One Blood: Death and Resurrection of Charles R. Drew (Paperback)
by John Hope Franklin, Spencie Love
Format: | Paperback 400 pages |
Not in stock
Usually despatched in 2-3 weeks
Delivered FREE
in the UK
"One Blood" traces both the life of the famous black surgeon and blood plasma pioneer Dr. Charles Drew and the well-known legend about his death. On April 1, 1950, Drew died after an auto accident in rural North Carolina. Within hours, rumors spread: the man who helped create the first American Red Cross blood bank had bled to death because a whites-only hospital refused to treat him. Drew was in fact treated in the emergency room of the small, segregated Alamance General Hospital. Two white surgeons worked hard to save him, but he died after about an hour. In her compelling chronicle of Drew's life and death, Spencie Love shows that in a generic sense, the Drew legend is true: throughout the segregated era, African Americans were turned away at hospital doors, either because the hospitals were whites-only or because the 'black beds' were full. Love describes the fate of a young black World War II veteran who died after being turned away from Duke Hospital following an auto accident that occurred in the same year and the same county as Drew's. African Americans are shown to have figuratively 'bled to death' at white hands from the time they were first brought to this country as slaves. By preserving their own stories, Love says, they have proven the enduring value of oral history. General Interest/Race Relations

Never ever before have siggys ever bothered me, ever. I have never cared what people have. Now I find myself avoiding certain people because I don't want to look at their pregnancy tickers.
I feel like such a jerk for that. I guess it will go away as the rawness of the pain goes away.
I hear ya. It took a while before I could even read some people's posts. I still don't respond sometimes because it's so hard to congratulate someone for getting something I just lost.
I also really hate preggo complaint posts right now. Especially when people don't think and put preggo complaints in their response to one of my posts. I just can't take it.
Sorry to hijack. I just know how you feel.
This is a safe place to be because there are no pregnancy tickers here. We just have our angel dates.
I am here if you need me. Sorry you are hurting so much.
Last edited by Michelle; 01-06-2008 at 08:06 AM.
Completely understand. It's still hard for me to see tickers and such and it's been almost 13 yrs. Maybe just turn on the not seeing siggy option when you know your having a bad day? I know i avoid some boards all together when i know i would react badly to seeing them.
I've recently suffered my loss (yesterday) and I find it harder and harder to see signatures and even "I can't believe it!!!" type posts where I know the outcome is going to be a pic of a pos HPT. I can't even congratulate my friends.
I don't think it's wrong of you hun. I still get that sometimes and it's been 4 months since our last loss. As for the pregnancy complaints, they are usually made by people who have no idea what it's like to suffer a loss. It's painful for us to see, but in a way it's good i suppose because those people still have the wonderful, naive, happy go lucky view of pregnancy untainted by this pain of loss.
The whole thing about siggies and pregnancy talk is why this board is wonderful at a time of loss. It's a safe haven, which doesn't allow any signatures at all. If people leave their signatures on their posts, regardless of what is in them, they will be removed. If a person consistantly leaves on their signature they will be contacted by PM. Even if it doesn't have a pregnancy ticker in it or a picture of a baby. People's circumstances change, and when they do, their signature will change and update on all the posts they have ever made all over the site, including here. It's just safer to not allow them at all. It's also the reason why we have to pre-warn people to sensitive issues when we post, such as PREG MENT or TTC MENT or LC MENT. It's a courtesy that allows the member the option to open the post, or not, depending on when they are ready. We also ask that regular posters think carefully about what is in their avatar. People in their grief don't want to see babies and children etc. in avatars either.

Hello ladies, I also wanted to drop in and let you know that there is an option in your User Control Panel to turn off siggies, images, and avatars for the entire board. (You can pick which, it's not all or nothing).
The option allows you to click to be able to see what is hidden so it would be your choice.
That may make your time outside this safe haven just a tiny bit easier.

"Scrumptious! My family and I devoured this, topping each of our portions with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I will definitely make this again. I made this exactly according to the recipe, but I did not use all of the blackberry sauce. I put the blackberries in the tart shell, and then added the juice until it was just below the rim of the shell. ..."

Islands in the Slipstream
While Vapours is the most focused record of his career, it required some upheaval; Thorburn dismantled the six-man force behind the prog-rock grandeur of 2008's Arm's Way and brought in Guelph, Ontario-bred musicians Evan and Geordie Gordon of the Magic and, most surprisingly, former collaborator Jamie Thompson who abruptly quit Islands in 2006 during their first tour. "This idea of it being fluid wasn't an intentional M.O. from the outset of Islands," Thorburn explains. "It just happens that way and I embrace it. It's hard to manoeuvre without consistency but it's nice to be afforded the opportunity to make dramatically different records. That's important to me ― to be able to constantly try new things. That's why this record's largely informed by electronic stuff like drum machines, sequencing, and programming, which really scales it back from the last record."
If Vapours marks a departure for Thorburn, it's a greater leap for the Gordon brothers. For one, an eight-week Islands tour this fall means that finishing touches on their eagerly anticipated Magic album have been stalled. Ditto Evan's pursuits in obscure, powerful outfits like his reunited Sad Clowns and the fresher Skeletones Four. "My band was disrupted by the Magic and I've completely failed to make any new songs because now my mental energy is expended on these other people," Evan chuckles.
Being full-fledged Islands and contributing to Vapours stirred the Gordons from their home studio to working with producer/engineer Chris Coady (TV on the Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs) in New York. "He purposely tried to get in the way of normal processes, making us work on songs backwards or in different ways," Geordie says. "Like songs might start with Jamie doing a loop of some kind or drum machine, and everyone else might trade off on keyboards. There's a lot of parts that are exciting and it's happy; it's not a downer record."
Indeed, the cheeriest member of Islands seems to be Thompson, whose unexpected return to public performance is joyful news for Unicorns fans longing for the chemistry between him, Thorburn, and Alden Penner, who now leads Montreal's Clues. "When the Unicorns broke up, it was really hard for Nick and I because it came out of nowhere," Thompson recalls. "I think I went a little bit crazy with wanting Islands to work after that. I wasn't approaching it right; I stopped having fun and got into a bad headspace about it. Nick had come up with the idea for the four of us to make a record. I love these people and it just seemed like an amazing opportunity."
After years of varied experiences, Thorburn too appreciates how precious band dynamics can be. "With the beginning of Islands, Jamie and I were just trying to continue the momentum of performing, recording, and making a go of it. It can be really pleasurable, y'know? Not to say that it wasn't but, it wasn't for a time; we kinda ran ourselves into the ground."
"Sometimes things change," Thompson adds. "But right now, I'm in the best frame of mind for being in a band and going on tour. I'm excited and I think it's gonna be more fun than any other time."
Coming back soon! If our developer were more machine than man they'd already be here. Useless meatsack.

perfect place for extended family
this place was perfect for us! we have 2 married sons with babies, and a single son. the 2ndmaster, another bedroom and bathand large area with kitchen and ping pong downstairs allowed everyone plenty of space. the large kitchen upstairs made it easy to fix meals and everyone to eat together. we love this area of the lake the best so it was a perfect fit for our family! the owner was wonderful to deal with and came right up the first night we were there and had a tremendous thunder storm and water came in on the bottom floor. he brought towels and fans, and called the next day to see how everything was going. we definitely will use this place again and highly recommend it!
We had a blast!
The property has plenty of room and plenty of fun activities for the kids. Close to everything that you need for your stay. My family loved every moment. We will return to this property again.

Archaeologists plan more digs at Richard III site
tags: archaeology, Richard III, monarchy. BritainArchaeologists who unearthed the skeleton of England's King Richard III under a municipal parking lot say they want to dig up a 600-year-old stone coffin found nearby.
University of Leicester scientists say they hope to learn more about the medieval Church of the Grey Friars, where Richard was unceremoniously buried after he was killed at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485.
In February scientists from the university announced that remains found on the site were "beyond reasonable doubt" those of the king....

Monroe police on Saturday continued to investigate a fatal shooting that left one man dead Friday and a suspect who was captured with his baby in his vehicle after a multicar collision
Christopher Jermareus Thomas, 22, of Marshville was charged with first-degree murder, misdemeanor child abuse and possession of a stolen firearm, among other offenses, according to the Union County Sheriff's Office. Thomas is scheduled to appear in Union County court on Monday.
Police gave this account of the incident:
Thomas was at the Singh's Mart at 715 E. Franklin St. around 3:30 p.m. Friday and "got into some kind of altercation in the parking lot (with the victim)," said Monroe interim police Chief Bryan Gilliard.
Thomas allegedly shot the victim, Necole DeMont Horn, 26, also of Marshville, and fled the scene in a white Isuzu Rodeo.
A short time later, a lieutenant with the Union County Sheriff's Office and a lieutenant with the Monroe Police Department located a vehicle matching that description on U.S. 74 heading toward Wingate. The vehicle Thomas was driving was involved in a collision with three other vehicles at U.S. 74 and Bivens Road.
He was arrested at the scene without incident.
His 3-month-old daughter was in the Isuzu but was not injured, according to police. Thomas also was not injured, and the other drivers and passenger had only minor injuries, according to the interim chief.
Police were still investigating Saturday what the altercation was about, and whether Thomas and the victim knew one another.
When police responded at the scene, they found Horn unresponsive with several gunshot wounds. Horn was taken to Carolinas Medical Center-Union in Monroe, where he died, Gilliard said.

The philanthropist behind the new Jewish Community Centre for London has pledged £8.2 million towards a range of British cultural and education programmes.
Dame Vivien Duffield said she wanted her donation, which comes amid 40 per cent funding cuts to the Arts Council England, to help ensure culture would be "at the heart of our children's learning."
A £6,000 painting stolen from a St John's Wood art gallery two years ago has been recovered after a fan of the artist discovered it hanging in a Moroccan shop.

Leading Israeli choreographers Ido Tadmor has devised a dance in tribute to the lowest place on earth, as part of Israel's camapign for the Dead Sea to be named a new wonder of the world in a global contest.
A valuable sculpture from the 1890s by French artist Auguste Rodin has been stolen from the Israel Museum.
The work, given to the Jerusalem museum by Broadway impresario Billy Rose, went missing at the end of last year. The museum was being renovated at the time and has since reopened.
A celebration of Israeli design talent has been launched by Sotheby's, with exhibitions planned in London, Tel Aviv and New York.
Leeds Jewry celebrated its culture and heritage in truly hands-on style on Sunday with a sculpture and crafts fair at the MAZ community centre, attended by 400 people.
Sculptor of celebrities Frances Segelman took centre stage at the event, organised Jewish education charity Makor as part of the local community's 150th anniversary celebrations.
The stormy weather that hit Israel this week had an unexpected consequence when an ancient Roman statue was unearthed on an Ashkelon beach.
A passer-by noticed the headless marble statue, thought to be at least 1700 years old, after the storm left it exposed in the sand. The white marble figure, which is 1.2 metres tall and weighs 200 kilograms, is wearing a toga but no longer has arms.
A spokesman for the Israel Antiquities Authority said that what was thought to be part of a Roman bathhouse was also unearthed.
The unusual possessions of a Dutch Resistance fighter who saved the lives of dozens of Jews during the Holocaust are to be auctioned in Britain next week.
Henk Huffener, whose wartime heroism was honoured by Yad Vashem in 1998 when the Holocaust museum made him a Righteous Among the Nations, died in 2006 at the age of 83.
During his life Mr Huffener gathered a vast collection of artwork and antiques ranging from Roman jewellery to Chinese pottery and from prehistoric tools to African tribal art.
Visitors enjoyed a look at the work of Muslim, Christian and Jewish artists at the Interfaith Arts Festival in London last week.
Held at the Candid Arts Gallery in Islington, the festival was organised by the Three Faiths Forum to mark National Interfaith Week
Stephen Shashoua, director of the Three Faiths Forum, said: "London is an incredibly diverse city, but there are very few opportunities for people to really engage at this level with anyone outside their own religious or cultural group.
Born in 1886, the Mexican painter and muralist is perhaps now remembered most for his tempestuous marriage to Frida Kahlo and his passionate support of communism.
A precocious artistic talent, he was sent to a specialist academy in Mexico City at just ten-years-old, and later studied in Madrid and France, where he mixed with an elite circle that included Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque and Amedeo Modigliani.

Detroit broadcaster Herrington recorded storied career
Date: January 4, 2013
by: Robin Hartill | City Editor
Longtime Detroit broadcaster and Longboat Key resident Jim Herrington died yesterday. He was 84.
Herrington spent more than 30 years at Detroit's ABC affiliate WXYZ as a reporter, writer and moderator. He won four Michigan Emmys and a National Headliner Award during his career.
"Jim was one of the greats — the unquestioned dean of political reporters in Detroit, really all of Michigan, for many years," wrote friend Molly Schechter, a former Detroit resident, in an email.
Herrington attended Northwestern University and began his journalism career in the U.S. Navy's Armed Forces radio.
The Detroit News reported this morning on its website, detroitnews.com, that Herrington interviewed every president from Harry Truman to Bill Clinton.
Locally, he was active in Sarasota's Media Roundtable, according to president and moderator Irwin Starr, who said that Herrington attended a forum as recently as October.
Herrington is survived by his longtime partner, Carol Camiener; daughter, Lauren Guzzardo; sons, Doug and Jim; and 10 grandchildren.
A memorial service will take place at 11 a.m. Sunday, Jan. 6, at Temple Beth Israel, 567 Bay Isles Road.
For more information, pick up the Jan. 10 issue of the Longboat Observer.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Province ready for legal challenge to anti-bullying bill: Allan
Education Minister Nancy Allan refused to comment today on a federal cabinet minister's criticism of Manitoba's anti-bullying bill while announcing supports to parents to combat school bullying at a Winnipeg school.
However, Allan did say that the province would be ready for any legal challenge to Bill 18.
Asked what she thought of Public Safety Minister Vic Toews' remarks earlier this week that Bill 18 violates religious freedom under the Canadian Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, Allan said: "I don't have any comment on that today."
Asked about a potential legal challenge to the bill, she said: "Obviously we have legal drafts people looking at our legislation and we will be prepared for whatever comes our way."
Allan held a news conference at Pinkham Community School on Pacific Avenue to announce that the province would provide new "parent friendly" brochures and fact sheets on school bullying, plug a government anti-bullying website, and renew $116,000 in funding to Safe Schools Manitoba.
"We need to provide a voice for parents. Parents want to know that their students are in a safe and caring environment. And if they have a problem they need to have a place to go," Allan said. "They need to know what bullying looks like. We need to ensure that they have the resources. We need to ensure that they have a place to go to resolve these issues."

'Congratulations! You're in Debt'
I wrote about student debt and the college industry today:
There's no doubt that graduating from college brings a significant economic advantage, but that doesn't excuse the waste and self-satisfied lassitude of American higher education. Colleges appropriate tuition dollars from America's students with an ever-accelerating voracity, yet don't deliver any additional educational benefits — indeed, they do the opposite. Higher education is one of the sectors of American life that most desperately needs a thorough re-conception.

Shia LaBeouf is being accused of plagiarism by Daniel Clowes.
Buzzfeed is reporting that the actor is under fire, with artist Daniel Clowes raising the dead fuming over the allegedly blatant lifting of his original material.
He tells Buzzfeed: "His apology is a non-apology, absolving himself of the fact that he actively misled, at best, and lied, at worst, about the genesis of the film."The website reports that Eric Reynolds, the artist's long-time editor and the associate publisher at Fantagraphics, claims that Clowes is pursuing his legal options.
The flap is reportedly over LaBeouf's short film, HowardCantour.com, which premiered at Cannes in 2012 and is apparently a "nearly word-for-word adaptation of Clowes' 2007 short comic Justin M. Damiano" according to Buzzfeed.
It gets worse. Allegedly LaBeouf's apology on Twitter is also being called a plagiarized version of something posted on Yahoo Answers, according to the website.

At 2:45 p.m. yesterday afternoon, Reno firefighters responded to a structure fire at an upstairs apartment at the Bristle Point Apartments located at 2050 Longley Lane.
The two senior occupants suffered smoke inhalation and were transported to Renown Health. The female patient received burns covering approximately 50 to 60 percent of her body. She is being transported to UC Davis. The male patient is currently in the intensive care unit at Renown Health.
The Reno Fire Department chaplain and the American Red Cross will be providing assistance for both of the individuals.
The fire started in the bedroom of the apartment. The cause of the fire is under investigation. At the time of this release it has not been determined if the other three nearby apartment units could be reoccupied due to the fire, structural and smoke damage.
Responding to the structure fire were three structure engines, one ladder truck, one rescue unit, one air support unit, one safety officer, one fire investigator, the fire department chaplain and one battalion chief. The Reno Police Department and REMSA responded to the incident to provide support services. NV Energy was also on scene helping fire crews by shutting off gas and electric services.

ArQule, Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company, researches and develops cancer therapeutics. Its lead product candidate tivantinib is an inhibitor of the c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase and its biological pathway, which is in Phase 3 clinical trial for the treatment of non-small cell lung and liver cancer; and Phase 2 clinical trial for the treatment of colorectal cancer. The company's early clinical-stage products include ARQ 092, an inhibitor of the Akt protein kinase; ARQ 087, a multi-kinase inhibitor with pan-fibroblast growth factor receptor activity; ARQ 761, a NQ01 inhibitor; ARQ 621, an inhibitor of the Eg5 kinesin motor protein; and ARQ 736, an inhibitor of the RAF kinases. It has partnership agreement with Daiichi Sankyo Co., Ltd. and Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd. for implementing a clinical development program designed to realize the potential of tivantinib as a single agent; and in combination with other anti-cancer therapies in various disease indications. In addition, the company has research collaboration with Daiichi Sankyo Co., Ltd. to discover therapeutic compounds that selectively inhibit certain kinases in the field of oncology based on its ArQule Kinase Inhibitor Platform (AKIP) technology. ArQule, Inc. was founded in 1993 and is headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts.

arqule inc (AQL) Key Developments
ArQule Inc. announced an agreement with the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) providing for the clinical development of ARQ 092, an orally available, selective small molecule inhibitor of AKT, in Proteus syndrome, a rare disease characterized by overgrowth of the skeleton, skin, adipose tissue and central nervous system. The NIH Proteus syndrome team is led by researchers who originally discovered the somatic single (point) mutation in the AKT 1 oncogene that causes Proteus syndrome. On that basis, the NIH entered into a collaboration with ArQule focused on pre-clinical testing of ARQ 092. Results from that pre-clinical research recently presented by the NIH team at the 2014 meeting of the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG, Abstract # 2180M) demonstrate that treatment with ARQ 092 caused a rapid shutdown of AKT signaling and a reduction in the viability of Proteus syndrome cells taken from patients compared to untreated diseased cells. These findings represent pre-clinical proof-of-concept for advancement of ARQ 092 into clinical testing in this indication.
ArQule Inc. announced positive top-line results from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical trial of tivantinib as a single agent in metastatic prostate cancer. This trial (identifier NCT01519414) was conducted under a cooperative research and development agreement with the National Cancer Institute's Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (a randomized, double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase 2 study of ARQ 197 (tivantinib) in Men with Asymptomatic or Minimally Symptomatic Metastatic Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer, NCI Protocol # 8986). The principal investigator was J. Paul Monk, M.D. of The Ohio State University, Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute. In this trial, 78 patients were randomized 2 to 1 to receive either tivantinib as a single agent or placebo. During a pre-planned analysis, it was found that the trial met its primary endpoint of improving median progression-free survival (PFS) with tivantinib alone as compared to placebo. The results were highly statistically significant. Safety data were consistent with those observed in other trials of tivantinib. The results of the trial are the subject of ongoing analyses and will be submitted by the investigators for presentation at a future medical conference. As final data emerge from this trial, ArQule and its partner, Daiichi Sankyo Company, Limited, will discuss with the National Institutes of Health the potential for additional trials in this indication. Uncontrolled, signal generation data from additional NIH-sponsored trials with tivantinib in breast cancer and multiple myeloma did not meet their primary endpoint of response rate. As a result, the company does not plan to prioritize development in these indications at this time. This study is a randomized Phase 2 trial in which men with asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic metastatic castrate resistant, chemotherapy-naïve prostate cancer were randomized 2 to 1 to receive tivantinib 360 milligrams BID or placebo. The primary objective of the trial is PFS. Secondary objectives include PSA response rate at 12 weeks, radiographic response rate at 12 weeks, proportion of patients who are progression-free at 12 weeks, and safety and tolerability. The study is designed to detect an improvement in the median PFS from 3 months to 6 months with tivantinib treatment. The proposed sample of 78 patients (26 in the placebo arm, 52 in the tivantinib arm) provides 90% power to detect an improvement from 3 months median PFS with placebo to a median PFS of at least 6 months with tivantinib. This design is based on the assumption of having 58 cumulative events (progressions or deaths).
ArQule Inc. announced unaudited financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014. For the quarter, the company reported research and development revenue of $2,662,000 against $3,542,000 a year ago, due to lower revenue from its Daiichi Sankyo tivantinib program due to a change in the estimated development period. Loss from operations was $6,448,000 against $6,193,000 a year ago. Net loss was $6,399,000 against $6,083,000 a year ago. Basic and diluted net loss share was $0.10 against $0.10 a year ago. For the nine months, the company reported research and development revenue of $8,239,000 against $13,639,000 a year ago, due to revenue decreases of $1.3 million from Daichii Sankyo ARQ 092 agreement that ended in June 2013, $2.3 million from Daiichi Sankyo tivantinib program due to a change in the estimated development period and $1.8 million of other revenue related to a one-time research project that was completed in the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Loss from operations was $20,159,000 against $18,957,000 a year ago. Net loss was $19,879,000 against $18,644,000 a year ago. Basic and diluted net loss share was $0.32 against $0.30 a year ago. For 2014, the company expects net use of cash to range between $35 million and $38 million. Revenues are expected to range between $8 million and $10 million. Net loss is expected to range between $30 million and $33 million, and net loss per share is expected to range between $0.48 and $0.52.

Aug 28th, 2002, 04:43 PM
Consistency, they prefer to show early round Men's matches because they have more depth.
Aug 28th, 2002, 04:48 PM
Hey, Elena won the first set 6-3 and they showed the last two games on tv. :bounce:

As we head into the 2009 holiday shopping season, the popularity of gift card programs for retailers, restaurants and other hospitality businesses and their customers becomes apparent. "Breakage," that portion of gift card balances that are not redeemed for food, beverage or merchandise, also can be an important short-term cash flow benefit for the card issuer. Yet, a number of States will treat unredeemed gift card balances as unclaimed property. As a result, some issuers of gift cards have used separate entities to manage their gift card programs to achieve intended unclaimed property compliance benefits. In turn, how these gift card management entities recognize income from gift card sales has caught the attention of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
Internal Revenue Service's LMSB Audit Initiative
In 2007, the IRS's Large and Mid-size Business Division (LMSB) issued a directive to its revenue agents in the field announcing an audit initiative targeting what the IRS viewed as improper treatment in recognition of income from sales of gift cards and gift certificates by restaurants and retailers.1 The directive clarifies that, although a sale of a gift card is income for financial statement accounting purposes when the card is redeemed, income is generally recognized for tax purposes when the card is sold. However, if a taxpayer can properly use the "advance payment" deferral rules of Treas. Reg. § 1.451-5 and Rev. Proc. 2004-342, then unredeemed gift card income can be deferred up to the last day of the second tax year following the year of sale. Among other requirements, IRS rules require the seller of the gift card to also be the seller of the merchandise for which a card balance is redeemed.
State Unclaimed Property Laws
Roughly half of the States treat balances on gift cards or certificates that have not been redeemed for a period of years, usually three to five years after issuance, as unclaimed property. These States require the "holder," the card issuer, to report and pay to the State the unredeemed balance upon expiration of the "dormancy period" when the unredeemed gift card balance is deemed abandoned by the owner. Thus, while unredeemed gift card balances may be taken into income for tax purposes, that balance may also be unclaimed property payable to a State.
Another group of States will not treat unredeemed gift card balances as unclaimed property, depending on requirements that may vary by State.
A holder may determine whether unredeemed gift card balances are escheatable as unclaimed property, and to which State, based on statutory unclaimed property reporting priority rules of the States where the holder is legally domiciled and/or engages in commercial activities. These priority rules are patterned after the priority rule for escheat of intangible property established by the U.S. Supreme Court in Texas v. New Jersey, 379 U.S. 674, 681-682 (1965), and affirmed in Delaware v. New York, 507 U.S. 490 (1993).
As a result, a popular unclaimed property compliance management technique has been for holders to establish separate gift card management companies or other entities. These companies/other entities manage a gift card program from the purchase and design of cards to the sale of cards, tracking, redemptions and other aspects of marketing gift cards. Depending on where it is domiciled and other factors, the management company/other entity also may be intended to enhance unclaimed property compliance with respect to unredeemed gift card balances.
IRS Field and Legal Advice
In field advice3, the IRS has held that separate gift card management subsidiaries of their parent company retailers could not defer income recognition of gift card sales as "advance payments" under Treas. Reg. § 1.451-5 and Rev. Proc. 2004-34. Because the gift card management subsidiaries were issuers of gift cards but did not own the merchandise for which the gift card balances were redeemed, income from those sales could not be deferred.
More recently, the IRS ruled that a full-service restaurant management company could not defer the recognition of income from its gift card sales that were redeemed in restaurants that the management company did not own.4 The restaurants were owned by separate entities that were corporations wholly, partially, or not owned by the management company. The management company also held interests in entities treated as partnerships for federal tax purposes. The IRS reasoned that under state law property titled in the name of a corporation is an asset of the corporation, not its shareholders. Since the food and beverages of the restaurant corporations were owned by those corporations not the management company, gift cards were not redeemed for goods owned by the management company. Thus, the income deferral rule could not apply. Likewise, the same reasoning and conclusion was applied by the IRS to the restaurant entities that were treated as partnerships for federal tax purposes.
Whether the same result would be applied by the IRS to a gift card management entity that is disregarded as a separate entity for federal tax purposes, such as a single member limited liability company (SMLLC), is not addressed in the field advice. Because of certain administrative and commercial practicalities, SMLLCs have become more popular as gift card management entities for unclaimed property compliance management purposes.
While the IRS field advice is not binding on taxpayers and cannot be cited or relied on as precedent, the advice does reflect the current IRS audit and litigation position that implements the LMSB directive described above.
Restaurants, retailers, and other gift card issuers should review their gift card programs and the associated income tax and unclaimed property consequences, especially if they have implemented, or are contemplating, gift card management entities.
