Propellerhead Balance - incl. free update to Reason Essential Version 2 (download at Proellerhead), audio interface, 2-in by 2-out, USB 2.0 bus powered, Hi-end pre-amplifiers, Hi-end 24-bit ADC/DACs, 44.1 to 96kHz, Low latency design, Clip Safe Never again a lost take because of inadequate level settings. The "built-in recording engineer" watches over your session and automatically heals any clipped recordings (exclusive Reason feature), Mac OS class compliant (no driver on Mac OS). ASIO drivers for Windows installed with the software., Built-in Propellerhead Ignition Key, Direct monitoring (for stand-alone or DAW use), Two XLR microphone inputs w. 48V phantom power, Two 1/4" guitar inputs with padding, Four 1/4" line inputs (two stereo pairs), One 1/4" headphone output, Two 1/4" TRS balanced main outputs, Hardware input source selection, Input level control, Separate output and headphone level control, Output muting, System: Mac OS X 10.6.3 or higher, Windows: Windows XP SP3, Vista or Windows 7 (Vista or Windows 7 required for 64-bit), Included Software: Reason Essentials - registered Reason (full Version) users get a free Upgrade to Reason 7 (available directly from manufacturer as download)
So firstly as an avid user of Propellerhead Software, I had high expectations for 'Balance', Considering that the software is virtually unbreakable!.Firstly I should point out that I produce music for a living and I use much larger audio interfaces for the bulk of my work. I wanted to buy 'Balance' for when I am on the move, and since Reason is my main sequencer, it made sense. **The good points**The design and look of this interface is excellent and looks good anywhere it sits!The buttons and knobs are sturdy , durable and the unit feels very strong.The fact that you can plug in several instruments and mic's and simply switch between them on the interface is a great for home studio recording. It works well with all software not just reason, I have used it with ableton and several other d.a.w's and everything is great!**The Down side**There is no midi sockets for midi in or out, and seen as Reason 7 features midi out, I don't think it will be to long before the devise gets a makeover.The balance unit does not come with its own power supply and relies on USB power. This becomes an issue when the unit is not connected directly to a master usb socket. Sound will glitch as power and audio information are moving at high speed through a regular usb2 connection. Windows users have had glitching issues, but there is one sure way to fix that, 1 connect via master usb2 use the updated driver from the propellerhead website and not the one that comes with the devise3 Adjust the buffer size depending on how fast your windows machine is, you also might want to change your power saving setting to "use high power" in the control panel. If you already run "ASIO for all" as your driver, it will not work so well with balance so don't rely on this, you must get the propellerhead driver form the website.Overall for the home producer "Balance" is a cool looking and very user friendly audio interface, its very portable and carries a great sound when the glitching is ironed out.

Wiz Khalifa returned back to The Breakfast Club this morning to discuss his recent arrest, arrest record, and latest mixtape 28 Grams. He also talks about Lola Monroe, and Cardo leaving the Taylor Gang imprint, his relationship with Snoop Dogg and more. Wiz also says his album Blacc Hollywood is slated to be released with a tentative date during the summer.
Around the 11:40 mark, Khalifa reveals that he's finishing up a remix to his first single "We Dem Boyz", which features Nas, and one of artist he couldn't name. The remix will feature a brand new beat, so we're anxious to hear that.

TNT Express NV (TNTE) posted an 85 percent decline in third-quarter earnings as trading remained difficult in main European markets, prompting the Dutch package-delivery company to intensify efficiency measures.
Operating income fell to 9 million euros ($12.4 million) from 62 million euros in the quarter ended Sept. 30, TNT said in a statement today. Sales declined 6.6 percent to 1.62 billion euros, with unfavorable currency swings depressing revenue by 83 million euros. The Hoofddorp-based company said it will step up restructuring efforts, without providing further details. The shares rose 3.4 percent to 7.03 euros at 9:30 a.m. in Amsterdam.
"Overall trading conditions remain demanding and visibility limited," Chief Executive Officer Tex Gunning said in the statement. "Our ultimate goal is to make TNT Express robust for the long term. We are therefore developing further initiatives to reinforce our market and operational positions."
TNT is revamping after United Parcel Service Inc. (UPS), the biggest package-delivery company, terminated a 5.16 billion-euro bid in January amid opposition from European Union regulators. The overhaul includes the disposal of a unit in Brazil and the company's domestic road business in China, and may also result in disposal of its fashion-logistics unit.
TNT today reiterated a forecast to lift the company's operating profit margin to 8 percent by 2015, while adding the company's efficiency program, which aims to improve profit by 220 million euros by then, will generate 30 million euros in savings this year.
Cheaper Transportation
Sales in the company's Europe Main region fell an adjusted 3.4 percent in the quarter, with operating income declining by 25 percent, on weaker profitability in Italy and the loss of a major fashion contract in the U.K.
United Parcel Service, the world's largest package-delivery company, on Oct. 25 posted third-quarter earnings that beat analysts' estimates after carrying more U.S. shipments at higher rates. FedEx Corp. (FDX) beat profit estimates in its most recent quarter after moving lower-priority packages to cheaper transportation methods, such as ocean shipping.

Fraud from abroad
Pyramid schemes. Advance-fee swindles. Religious-affinity-loan scams. Look what the Web dragged in.
Vaughn Nelson had done well as an investor in the 1990s, regularly racking up annual returns of 23-to-25 percent in both his 401(k) and his outside investments.
Then a longtime business associate offered Mr. Nelson an even better deal: 23-to-25 percent monthly returns from loaning money to big, though unnamed, banks in Europe. The friend added that he had $120,000 of his own in these "offshore investments."
So the Salt Lake City businessman plowed $6,000 into the venture. It quintupled in a matter of months. With returns coming through as promised, he tapped his retirement plan for $50,000. That money was lost.
Nelson now says the associate lied to him and has since been convicted of securities fraud in connection with a "prime bank" scheme; a swindle that authorities estimate annually pulls $1.75 billion from the wallets of people nationwide.
From bank-loan scams to Nigerian advance-fee swindles to good old pyramid schemes, fraud is alive and well in America.
One top fraud-buster, Alabama Securities Commissioner Joseph Borg, believes the economic downturn from which the US appears to be emerging has boosted the flim-flam industry. With the stock market generating little income for investors, more and more people grab deals that they might have considered too risky in the past, he maintains.
"They're still looking for someplace to put money," says Mr. Borg. Because people became used to 20 percent yearly returns in the mid-1990s, propositions offering even greater riches haven't set off the alarm bells they once did.
Borg, who also is chairman of the North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA), says people who steered clear of the stock market are vulnerable, too. If they had money in certificates of deposit, they've felt cheated the past year as they rolled over accounts earning 8 percent into ones gaining 2 percent or less.
Embarrassed victims don't tend to step forward, so accurate records on the numbers of people swindled, and amounts taken, are impossible to come by.
However, Ashley Baker, a spokesman for NASAA, says that in recent meetings of group members "everyone was seeing more of this, not less."

The most expensive gaming setup known to mankind?
The latest in Conan O'Briens Clueless Gamer series aired last night, with the strawberry blonde talk show host playing a mixture of PS4 games on one of the largest high-definition screens in the world, the fifty million dollar Diamond Vision LED display at the AT&T Stadium. The segment was filmed last week, during his visit to Arlington, Texas, to film the show on tour.
At 180×72 feet, it's the ninth largest video capable screen on the planet, with 11,520 square feet of display rendering a resolution of 1088×2432. Thankfully, from their seating up in the club mezzanine, they can't see any jagged edges caused by those inch wide pixels.
As usual, Conan is joined by Aaron Bleyaert, the pair play a series of games for once, starting off Madden 25, before gliding around in Flower, cruising around in Need for Speed Rivals and finishing up with a Super Street Fighter II session, at which O'Brien proves to be surprisingly capable.
The episode is also available to watch via Conan 360, which allows viewers to pan the camera in 360 degrees and watch the action unfold around them.

P. Keshav lashes out against State
Electricity bills are giving a shock and sleepless nights to the people, Telugu Desam legislator P. Keshav said in Assembly on Monday.
Participating in a short discussion on the power situation in the State, he lashed out at the State government and said that lack of foresight, inefficiency and neglect of power sector had led to a power crisis and blamed successive Chief Ministers from the time of late Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy. He said the situation was so bad that surgeries in hospitals had to be conducted under candle and torch lights.
He said that Congress had come to power in 2004 by promising to rollback the tariff and nine-hour free supply to agriculture. But, at present, not even four hours of power was being supplied.
Stating that thousands of industries were facing closure due to power shortage, he said industrialists too had started committing suicide and cited an instance that occurred in Qutbullapur. Accusing the government of burdening the people to the extent of Rs.31,000 crore, he demanded a rollback in tariff.
He also took a dig at Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy by observing that he knew how to get the power and limit the power of his rivals.
TRS member P. Srinivas Reddy said Telangana region was meted out injustice in generation and transmission of electricity and said that formation of a separate State alone was the solution to the problems. He faulted TDP for criticising the government but not supporting the no-trust motion recently.

I like the idea of easier pot filling with a high arc faucet,and am attracted to the pull down spray feature, but most seem so high and large and I fear will overpower my standard sink and modest kitchen. Has anyone used one of the high arc prep faucets at their main sink, or is that a no-no? (I did read on one of the prep faucet spec sheets, to not use with a dishwasher.)
Here is my current sink and faucet. I am considering replacing the sink with a Blancodiamond single or 1 1/2 drop in, or may do stainless again. I really wanted a single hole, pull down with no deck plate. |

I have wondered the same thing-your kitchen sink, sprayer, and window placement look exactly like mine! I have decided to go forward and replace the sink, countertops and get a new Ladylux 3 pull down faucet. I want the one hole as well so hopefully it will look alright. I figure, it's what is convenient for me so as long as I'm happy our house will be happy! |

You'll have to replace your countertops to a solid surface like granite if you want a single hole faucet install. Or you can just cover the other 3 holes with cover plates if you keep a topmount sink. Undermounting a sink and using a single hole faucet greatly simplifies the "busyness" of the installation and looks much better than having the "soldier lineup" of a 4 hole faucet and topmount sink. |
Yes, I like the simple look without all the pop ups. It appears the blanco single topmount comes with one hole in the right corner, and an optional knock out in the left corner, and I've seen other sinks where you can specify how many holes. What are your feelings about the size of those high arc faucets? |
The Danze Fairmont is less than 11 inches tall, but has a side sprayer. How close does the sprayer need to be installed to the faucet? The single sink's holes would be about 23 inches apart (one at each corner). |

"Loved it! Served with leftover white rice for hubby and leftover quinoa for me. I see this as a regular in my house as we love taco salad with salsa and I always have some salsa left over. I also grow zucchini and have too much for most of the summer!"

CABOT, Vt. — Full sun, seasonal temperatures (which, in this season, means below-freezing); all systems are full-speed ahead.
We're currently charging our 24-volt at about 62 amps, so even on the next-to-shortest day of the year, we'll make nearly 8 kWh, nearly three times what we'll use. And our Thermo-Dynamics solar hot water collectors will produce 120-130-degree water—hot enough that we won't be drawing from our propane tanks.
Even better: Tomorrow, it's supposed to be sunny and windy. That means our Whisper 100 turbine will be whirring away, making even more power. After today, it'll be somewhat academic—after all, we can only store so many amp hours. But there's something smugly satisfying about having all systems "go."
The return of cold also means our cold box is functional again. Actually, we've been relying on it through the warm temperatures without any spoilage, but that's only because we've been vigilant. Now, we can relax and know that tonight's leftovers will still be palatable to put on the table for Christmas dinner. Not that we would, of course. —Ben Hewitt

today is probably the best first day of term I've ever had here!
Aside from the 4 million students who cant remember their passwords, there havent been too many problems at all. Even my new Mac network, that took up most of my summer, seems to be holding up well so far
This all shouldnt be a surprise, everything is just working as its supposed to, but we all know what normally happens on the first day: unbelievable bad luck, panicking staff making things worse and basically hell on earth.
But I've actually done some decent work today!

Rating Change #3
UGI Corporation (UGI - Get Report) has been upgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, reasonable valuation levels, good cash flow from operations and largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income.
Highlights from the ratings report include:
- UGI's revenue growth trails the industry average of 41.5%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 16.7%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- Net operating cash flow has slightly increased to $87.50 million or 6.57% when compared to the same quarter last year. Despite an increase in cash flow of 6.57%, UGI CORP is still growing at a significantly lower rate than the industry average of 57.07%.
- Even though the current debt-to-equity ratio is 1.16, it is still below the industry average, suggesting that this level of debt is acceptable within the Gas Utilities industry. Regardless of the somewhat mixed results with the debt-to-equity ratio, the company's quick ratio of 0.74 is weak.
- UGI CORP has exprienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. The company has suffered a declining pattern of earnings per share over the past two years. However, we anticipate this trend to reverse over the coming year. During the past fiscal year, UGI CORP reported lower earnings of $2.07 versus $2.38 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.41 versus $2.07).
UGI Corporation, through its subsidiaries, distributes and markets energy products and related services in the United States and internationally. The company has a P/E ratio of 14.2, equal to the average utilities industry P/E ratio and below the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 17.7. UGI has a market cap of $3.37 billion and is part of the utilities sector and utilities industry. Shares are down 6.1% year to date as of the close of trading on Friday.

A fire in Columbia County has left a family homeless. The fire broke out around 5am yesterday at the home on Mountain Road in North Centre Township. Firefighters had a tough time getting to the home due to icy roads, and when they arrived they found flames shooting through the roof. The family made it out without injury. It's believed the fire started in an attached garage in the rear of the more than 100 year old home and quickly spread. The home is a total loss. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
Up to a half a million people from across the United States and abroad gathered at National Mall in Washington DC yesterday for the annual March for Life.
The walk has become the largest ongoing civil rights march in American history. The March for Life began as a small demonstration and rapidly grew to be the largest pro-life event in the world. The peaceful demonstration that has followed on this somber anniversary every year since 1973 is a witness to the truth concerning the greatest human rights violation of our time, abortion.

The Big Question about the Dreamliner and Airbus A320 Neo is their Real World Fuel Efficiency.
As engineers know, estimates cannot hold a candle to real life results. And I have heard efficiency gains for the 787 bandied about from 15-40%. Boeing has been conducting prototype testing for almost a year. And the lack of any encouraging fuel efficiency data may prove disappointing.
Airlines need to increase fuel efficiency. Passengers benefit from these lower fuel costs. We can help the planet in these small ways.
If Boeing can prove the Dreamliner is the Toyota Prius Hybrid of the Skies, the Market will be forgiving. Otherwise, no one wants another V8 SUV Old Detroit Iron.

" Genre: Action & Adventure / Video Game for PlayStation 4 / Release Date: 2013-11-29 / Published by Warner Bros. Interactive "
* Prices may differ from that shown
Our house has a slight obsession with Lego. Thankfully we have children so it makes our obsession a little more acceptable! My husband and I grew up with comics and with the new Avengers and other such movies it's reignited our love of everything SUPER.
I was going for wife of the year award at Christmas and bought my husband the Playstation 4. A couple months go by and Lego Marvel Super Heroes for the PS4 comes out. My youngest begged for a couple days and I finally gave in. It was a bit expensive but currently you can get it from Amazon for just under £30. Also if you have a different console don't worry as it comes in various forms. Wife of the year present has now turned into a family present.
The game follows the numerous characters as they battle the baddies. There's over 100 characters to collect as you go along. At first you follow the story-line to finish levels but once you have completed a level you can later go back to it on free play. I think my favourite is free play because we now have a good number of characters so we've been going around making sure our collections are complete. From the streets of Manhattan to the S.H.I.E.L.D Hellicarrier there are fun activities, races and buildings to go into.
Each character has its own special powers and abilities that you learn along the way. They are very true the actual characters so easy to understand. When your character fights baddies you sometimes activate your super fight which is awesome. Hulk is by far the funniest ... he grabs hold of the baddies ankle and slams him to the ground from one side to another until broken. My son likes that Iron Man throws baddies head first into the ground and then shoots them in the backside.
As with other Lego games there are various studs and bricks to collect along your travels through the game. There are also hidden Stan Lee characters in each level to rescue. Finding him gives you a good collection of coins too. very much needed as my youngest keeps buying every new character as soon as we unlock them (drives me a bit crazy). I have found myself playing when the kids aren't around just collecting as many coins as I can to feed his addiction!
The visual quality of the game is really good, the flow of the game play is fast and the comic scenes are quite funny. The whole family enjoys the game. The controls are easy to figure out. I thought potentially my 5 year old would have problems but he's pretty good. There's only one thing he can't seem to figure out and that's when Iron Man does a puzzle as it's sometimes a bit tricky to solve. He likes running around New York City doing tasks and beating up garbage cans (as you do).
Think my husband like the game just as much as the kids. Sounds funny but I love how true to Lego the characters and setting are. Looking at all the pieces you can easily see how they would have been put together using real Lego pieces. My son has the Lego Spiderman set which includes the Daily Bugle building and when he saw it in the game started going mad with excitement. It was bit for bit exactly the same so he was really pleased.
Only one downside for me and that is that there currently isn't an online play option. On one occasion I managed to get my character stuck. No matter what I did nothing worked. I dropped out and let my son play on which dragged my character into the next scene and I got to come back in at that point so problem solved.
Good game for the whole family and definitely recommended by my family.

City, two groups to serve Temeculas needy as they tackle growing homeless problemFriday, April 18th, 2014 Issue 16, Volume 18.
The ambitious effort â to be based in a social services facility the city owns in Old Town â is being launched as Temecula sharpens its approach toward homelessness. "This is a full-court press," Councilman Mike Naggar said during a recent hearing on how the city can help those who want to get off the streets and deter those who dont. The new program will unfold while Temeculas homeless population appears to be rising. The increase in Temecula homelessness is occurring despite a reported 31 percent decline in homelessness throughout Riverside County. Naggar took a more aggressive stance on homelessness at an April 8 hearing than his council colleagues. He said the city should make Temecula "a very uncomfortable place" for transients or homeless residents who wont work to improve their living condition. Naggar added that Temecula must avoid becoming "a magnet" for transients from Riverside or other elsewhere who seek social services that arent available in their areas. Council members concurred that steps must be taken, possibly through a public awareness program, to discourage residents from giving money to panhandlers who seek donations at freeway ramps or other locations. They agreed that law enforcement sweeps, which could include the use of a helicopter, may be used to target homeless encampments and enforce trespassing, public intoxication and other laws and ordinances. The complexity of the tasks ahead was noted at the hearing by Mayor Maryann Edwards and Scott Treadway, pastor of Rancho Community Church. "Were dealing with a very difficult issue, and theres a reason homelessness has been around for thousands of years," Edwards noted during the 90-minute discussion and unanimous council action. Afterward, Treadway took stock of the outcome when questioned by reporters. "What comes out of that is a strategic plan with the city to solve homelessness, which is a bit of a tall order," said Treadway, who doubles as the president of Community Mission of Hope, an umbrella outreach group of Rancho Community. Nearly a year ago, the council voted to accept proposals from groups interested in serving the needy at a Pujol Street facility the city owns and has set aside for social services purposes. In doing so, the city put a small, grassroots nonprofit group on notice that it may no longer be the group tapped to serve the needy and homeless at that location. The pair of historic buildings was the fifth location for the faith-based Temecula-Murrieta Community Pantry during its 23 years of serving the area. Years ago, the city moved a historic house and a barn to the south end of Pujol Street to clear the way for the construction of its $73 million Civic Center complex in Old Town. The relocation of the historic Alec Escallier House and its nearby barn was part of a $2.1 million plan to cluster many social services groups along Pujol. The city spent about $600,000 â much of it from federal block grant funds â to move and renovate the two historic buildings. The Escallier House and barn total about 1,500 square feet. The council decision to seek service proposals marked the latest twist in a relationship between the city and the nonprofit pantry group that began to fray in the late 1990s. The unraveling between the city and the pantry occurred as Old Town evolved from a sleepy, quirky retail district into a booming hub of restaurants, offices and affordable apartments. The nonprofit survived the death of a popular founder, the uncertainty caused by the loss of its Old Town lease and also a move forced by the Civic Center construction. Pantry leaders turned to the city for help after they reported that their efforts to find other rental locations had failed. Council members approved the $1 a year lease as a way to continue serving the needy and to put the pair of historic buildings to use. In 2011, according to a city report, the pantry served food boxes to the needy that provided 37,000 meals as well as fresh bakery items to more than 14,000 people. The pantry also distributed clothing and blankets and made showers and other services available to clients. The facility was open from 8 a.m. until noon every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The city received one "responsive" reply to its May 2013 request for proposals. That response was submitted by Community Mission of Hope along with the involvement of pantry leaders. No pantry leaders spoke during the April 8 council hearing, which left Treadway to detail how the combined group expected to fulfill the "three-link plan" that Edwards envisioned to address homelessness in the city. Two audience members commented during the hearing. Rancho Community traces its roots to Temeculas country past in the 1960s. The church outgrew several locations before it planted permanent roots along Temecula Parkway. It is now in the third segment of its building plan there, a phase that is set to include a new youth center, gym and additional classrooms. The churchs sanctuary seats about 1,000 people, and it is the site of four weekly Sunday services. The Temecula Parkway facility is also home to a preschool, a kindergarten through 12th-grade campus and sports fields. The church also holds a weekly Sunday service at Murrietas Mesa High School, which seats about 700 people. The congregation joined with Orange County Rescue Mission to launch the Community Mission of Hope at Easter 2009. The service group is located in an office complex in Temeculas northeast corner, and it is open nine hours a week to "feed and provide help and loving counsel to those in need within our local region." The Community Mission of Hope is one of six "local impact" groups that the church sponsors with partners or on its own, according to its internet site. Those impact groups largely focus on serving the homeless or helping church members who need home repairs or meals or other services following surgery or financial or personal difficulties. Mayor Edwards is a member of Rancho Community. Peter Thorson, Temecula city attorney, announced at the hearing that Edwards membership would not pose a conflict of interest because she does not serve on the church governing board and has no decision making powers there. Edwards did not detail her level of church participation during the April 8 hearing. But she noted that Mission of Hope has left "a big footprint" in the areas social services landscape. Edwards said the location of her job as executive director of the Boys and Girls Club of Southwest County has given her a unique insight into Temeculas homeless problem. Edwards office is based at the clubs Pujol Street facility, which flanks the southern portion of Murrieta Creek. Historically, that segment of the creek, along with a freeway bridge at Highway 79 South, has provided cover for tents and other temporary enclaves used by the homeless. Edwards said she has noted a rapid uptick in homeless-related activity in that area in recent months. A 2009 spot check of homeless in the Temecula area netted about eight people who were living in vehicles, tents or other structures near the creek. That year, more than 200 volunteers fanned out from 23 coordination centers throughout the county for a one-day spot count of people who were living in cars, on the street or using government or social service vouchers to stay in motels. A separate one-day count was organized of homeless people who stay in overnight shelters. In 2005, the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development began requiring such homeless "census" reports from counties that seek funding. In 2009, Riverside County received $6.5 million from the federal governments housing support program. The scope of the homeless problem has steadily declined countywide in recent years, according to officials and reports. The 2007 census counted 4,708 homeless men, women and children, according to a Riverside County fact sheet. Of that amount, 1,733 people were counted in shelters and the rest were counted "on the street." Nearly 800 of those counted â about 18 percent â were under age 18. Another 150 people â 4 percent of those counted â were age 62 or older. By 2011, the countywide total had dropped to 4,321 homeless men, women and children, county officials reported. The count done Jan. 23, 2013, noted a further 31 percent drop from the previous year. The 2013 "point in time" count drew on the efforts of more than 400 volunteers. It identified 2,978 homeless adults and children, a press release stated. County officials attributed the steady decline to successful new projects that steer homeless residents into short- or long-term housing as well as homeless prevention, mental health, substance abuse and domestic abuse programs. County officials also credited federal funding that helped add more than 324 additional beds of "permanent supportive housing" throughout the county over a three-year period. "Riverside County has a good story to tell about how it is ending homelessness," Joe Colletti, Urban Initiatives founder and chief executive, said in a county press release issued in June 2013. Temecula saw its homeless figures climb during that period, city police and officials report, and panhandling around freeway exits has become more prevalent. The 2013 count identified 81 sheltered and unsheltered homeless people in Temecula. A breakdown of the 57 unsheltered adults showed that 52 percent were identified as "chronically homeless individuals." Twenty-two percent were deemed substance abusers, 17 percent were identified as mentally ill and 10 percent were older than age 62. The city of Riverside led the county with 571 homeless adults identified when the 2013 survey was conducted. Hemet had 126 and Lake Elsinore led the southwest quadrant with 91. Temecula was followed by Perris with 57. Wildomar had 18, followed by Menifee with 10 and Murrieta with five homeless adults identified. The one-year agreement between the city and Community Mission of Hope calls for Temecula to rent the Pujol Street facility to the group for $1 per year. The council has the discretion to extend the contract for two additional one-year terms. The city will also pay the annual cost, which totals about $9,000, to maintain the exterior of the historic properties and do landscaping work there. Temecula officials noted at the April 8 hearing that Temecula would bear those maintenance costs whether the buildings are used for social services programs or other purposes. In exchange, according to the city agreement, Mission of Hope will be tasked with collecting and distributing food, hygiene items and toiletries, clothing and cold weather wear, gift cards, bus passes, motel vouchers and other assistance. Furthermore, the group is tasked with operating the pantry and, possibly with partners, providing shelter, addiction prevention, financial management, pregnancy and childcare counseling or other related "wrap-around services." The group must give the city an annual report, provide data to state or federal agencies and train its staff and volunteers in client management and customer service etiquette. To accomplish that, Mission of Hope is expected to form or expand its partnerships with government agencies, businesses, faith-based organizations, civic and school groups, law enforcement agencies and healthcare and substance abuse providers. The creation of such a comprehensive approach, as well as Treadways assurances that the Mission of Hope would embrace the citys goals, struck a chord with Edwards and the rest of the council at the April 8 hearing. "Were going to tackle the problem," Mayor Edwards said after the council voted to launch the program, possibly as soon as May 1. "I have high hopes." 0 comments Be the first to share your opinion on this article!

Markman: Performant Collects
CEO Lisa Im took over in 2004 after serving as managing director of the predecessor firm for two years. She came to Performant from the food products industry. The company currently has 1,300 employees in five states around the country.
Performant's services are provided on an outsourced basis, in which it handles a portion or even all of a client's recovery processes. Most of its clients operate in regulated industries and look to third parties for these operations, rather than taking on additional personnel and expenses.
Another benefit to clients is Performant's success-based revenue model, which doesn't require any significant upfront investments. It earns revenue based on the success it has recovering payments from delinquent accounts.
The company went public on Aug. 10 at $9 per share and has largely traded above $10 since then. Private equity sponsor Parthenon Capital received more than 80% of the proceeds, in addition to a $1 million management termination fee. Parthenon led a $167 million recapitalization of the company in 2004, and has held its stake through the public offering.
Revenue has climbed 48% in the past three years while net income has risen 147% during that same span. As I said, it is a fast-growing field. The company is now trading at a market cap of $456 million with a relatively clean post-IPO balance sheet fortified with $154 million cash. Consider purchasing around $9.50 to $10, and prepare to collect. At the time of publication, Markman had no positions in the stocks mentioned.Select the service that is right for you!

Everyone Should Smoke Weed
weed opens your mind and allows you to think more deeply. if your going to smok nething at all make it weed:)Love to smoke weed but the effects at your age u don't think realize the long term effects start with short term memory loss but hey I mean older so I have short term memory loss but that's just one draw back Don the get me wrong I still smoke pot every ******* bat non stopjust letting u know that there
Wrongo, Danella. It simply makes you FEEL like you're thinking more deeply. Take a look at some of those 'deep thoughts' once you're not high and they probably won't seem quite as profound. <br />
I'm not trying to tell you to quit. I'd be a hypocrite if I did that! I just want to put you onto the right road here. Weed is for recreation, relaxing, having a good time with friends. Period.
its illegal because it's soooooo good.
i totally agree. for many people it only serves to enlighten

What will happen to life on Earth when the Sun becomes a red giant?
Hi I am a novelist from Norway and I have some questions concerning the death of the sun.
My questions:
If the Sun became a red giant will the Earth still be able to support life here?
Jagadheep: No, the Earth will not be able to support life if the Sun becomes a giant star. Giant stars have large radii as their name implies. When the Sun becomes a giant star, it may become so large as to engulf Earth, in which case the planet will be destroyed. Even if this does not happen, the sun will expand so far out that the temperatures on Earth will become extremely high so that all oceans will evaporate away, and there will be no water left on Earth. So, no life which depends on water will be able to survive.
When the sun starts expanding in about 5 billion years, what will be the first signs of this process?
Karen: The Sun is a relatively low mass star and as such its death will be relatively mundane (at least by Astronomical standards). The Sun's luminosity and radius have been increasing since it started life and will continue to gradually increase in this manner for another 4.5 billion years or so. When the hydrogen in the core is all used up energy generation will stop there, however it will continue in a thin shell around the core. It is this which makes the Sun expand since it heats up the outer layers more. Funnilly enough this makes the very outer layer cooler so that sun will actually redden as well as becoming brighter and expanding. I suspect that this reddening might be the first signs the the Sun has left the Main Sequence.
How long will it take from the process starts til the earth is engulfed, or at least uninhabitable?
Timescales are difficult in evolutionary models of stars. It's not clear quite what'll happen to the Earth either. It could be engulfed by the Sun, or it might get pushed out into a larger orbit and freeze as the Sun expands. The Sun will be a Red Giant for a few million years. By then I think it's safe to say that the Earth will be uninhabitable.
Will the earth catch fire while humans still live here or will the planet simply dry out?
I think that the temperature would kill life before anything caught on fire. It would only need to be 100F or so all the time for humans to be wiped out (we don't survive long in the desert, right).
Is it probable that life on earth will survive that long, or will asteroids wipe us out before then?
Probability wise, it's likely that the Human Race will have been killed off by the time the Sun leaves the Main Sequence. I don't think that any species in history has dominated the Earth for that long. Of course we could be the first....

Gogol Bordello's Gypsy Ways Unleash On Sin City
Las Vegas seems like a proper match for the wild cabaret stylings of Gogol Bordello. After all, Sin City caters to the eccentric and flamboyant, thus opening day got off to a riotous and fitting start courtesy of the gypsy punker's wild rock'n'roll ways. No stranger to 2007's festival circuit having already stormed stages at Coachella, Bonnaroo, and Bumbershoot, Gogol Bordello's now refined set highlighted tunes from their latest LP, Super Taranta!, as frontman Eugene Hutz and his crew of merry pranksters engaged in an excess of onstage antics. After the band's set, and donning full stage garb, the mustachioed Hutz took time out to speak with SPIN.com about his recent performance alongside Madonna at the London installment at this summer's Live Earth, as well as divulge details on the band's inexhaustible output and creative rigmarole.

'Temple Run' Looks to be the Latest in a Long Line of Video Game Movie Bad Ideas
In Development By Nathan Adams on November 13, 2013 | Comments (2)Video games have been a part of popular culture for decades now, and whenever anything is a part of popular culture, you can bet that Hollywood is going to try to piggyback off of its joojoo in some way. Because of this, the history of movies that were adapted from video game properties is a long and rich one, wherein just about every game you can think of that's reached a critical mass of popularity has been turned into a movie. That's what makes it so depressing that we still haven't really gotten a video game movie that's been received warmly enough to legitimize the genre and shut up everyone who keeps saying that video games are not art, or that they at least make for really crappy source material for movies. What's even more depressing though is the news THR recently broke that Temple Run, a game that's become popular on iOS and Android mobile devices, is the next property set up to inspire its own big screen feature over at Warner Bros. Making a movie out of a game like this just proves that Hollywood still has no clue which types of video games could inspire a film version that audiences would accept and which absolutely won't.
Duncan Jones' 'World of Warcraft' Casting Its First Humans
Casting Couch By Scott Beggs on September 23, 2013 | Be the First To CommentAccording to Deadline Hollywood, Legendary has offered lead roles for the Duncan Jones-directed World of Warcraft to Paula Patton and Colin Farrell, although there's still (by their calculations) an even chance that Farrell won't accept. Who will they play? Hunters? Mages? Night Elves? It's unclear — as is what the movie dipping its toes into the expansive universe will cover. The only sure thing is that it has to be more than humans and orcs to avoid feeling like a Lord of the Rings clone. After 5 years of stop-and-go development, this is the surest sign yet that their announcement to start production in January isn't just a pipe dream. Patton and Farrell are both interesting choices, but regardless of who they cast, this is still an In-Duncan-Jones-We-Trust situation. The studio may want names and faces to put on the poster, but this will always be the filmmaker behind Moon becoming the mayor of an insanely popular fantasy landscape. Look for an avalanche of developments in the coming months.
Duncan Jones Shooting 'World of Warcraft' In January
In Development By Scott Beggs on August 29, 2013 | Be the First To CommentIt's been a long, harrowing journey, but it's almost close to starting. Blizzard has been developing World of Warcraft for a very long time, initially earning excitement for hiring Sam Raimi in 2009, but after the director dropped out last year, the news of Duncan Jones replacing him was bittersweet. He's undoubtedly a great choice, yet after waiting so long for it to happen, it was natural to question whether the movie would actually happen. Well now it will. Or at least someone's paying rent. Production Weekly has posted that Legendary Pictures has set up its offices for the film at Canadian Motion Picture Park (apparently Azeroth is in Vancouver) with an eye to start production January 13, 2014. So far, the plan to release it in 2015 is still on target. No word yet on whether Aubrey Plaza and Mr. T will star. In fact, there haven't been any casting announcements yet, but they're almost guaranteed to land in the coming months.
This Will Be Legendary: Duncan Jones to Direct 'World of Warcraft' Movie
In Development By Kate Erbland on January 30, 2013 | Be the First To CommentBriefly: After years of stops and starts, Legendary Pictures' World of Warcraft movie has finally locked in a director who sounds determined to make the live-action project work. THR reports that Moon and Source Code director Duncan Jones will helm their feature. The script has been written by Charles Leavitt and the film is aiming to start filming this fall, with a 2015 release eyed.
Level 70 Directing Mage Sam Raimi Signs Off of 'World of Warcraft'
Movie News By Scott Beggs on July 18, 2012 | Be the First To CommentSam Raimi has been developing an expansive World of Warcraft movie for quite some time, but this year's Comic-Con brought sad news for anyone wishing to see that universe brought to life in movie form. According to Crave Online, the director announced that he would not be moving forward with the project. More specifically, his involvement and schedule for Oz the Great and Powerful meant he couldn't direct WOW. "…They don't have me directing World of Warcraft anymore because when I took the Oz job, they had to move on to another director. They had to start making it," said Raimi. However, it's unclear what director they've moved on to or at what stage of development the project is at. Of course, Blizzard Entertainment might have been too busy making sure Diablo III servers stopped crashing in order to make a few director phone calls. For now, let's consider this news the equivalent of a loading bar that's still half full. Or half empty, depending on how you look at it.
Watch: 'IRL – In Real Life' Rises Defiantly Against World of Warcraft Addiction
Features By Scott Beggs on April 24, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWhy Watch? In the opening seconds of IRL, a young man starts to list his World of Warcraft character's achievements. It's impressive at first, until the audio editing transforms the accolades into an overwhelming mess, descending into a confusing spiral that sets up the tone for this light, yet serious look at the very real inability to disconnect from a game online. The young man is writer/director Anthony Rosner who delivers a fantastic short documentary told primarily with imagery from the game and from pictures of his personal life. It's sweet and sad at the same time. All that money spent, all that time dedicated to something that failed to make him friends or advance him in the outside world. It also makes sense – accurately explaining how the allure of praise and adulation in the online world can keep someone in a basement even when there's a beautiful country out there to explore. What will it cost? Only 7 minutes. Skip Work. You've Got Time For More Short Films
Short Film of the Day: Avatar Days
Features By Scott Beggs on May 11, 2011 | Be the First To CommentWhy Watch? Because sometimes the real world needs a little fantasy, and a documentary is the only thing that can bring the two together. This short doc is incredible. It's concept is one of sheer cleverness and execution that's both thoughtful and playful at the same time. It follows a handful of World of Warcraft players as they go about their banal, daily work (walking through cubicles, driving forklifts), but instead of people grinding out a 9-to-5, it's their WoW characters. Through visual FX, the warlocks and warriors are brought into the bus stops and buildings with some insightful, personal interviews acting as voice over. What Will It Cost? Just 4 minutes of your time. Check out Avatar Days for yourself:
