Income not keeping pace with your student loan payments? Consider income-based repayment for a major win.
We've talked about the standard repayment options for federal student loans. Though they offer flexibility, none can offer the same "bang for your buck" as the income-based repayment plan (IBR).
If you qualify, this could be exactly what you've been looking for.
Basics Of Income-Based Repayment Plans
IBR is available for Direct Loan and FFEL borrowers only, and has been on the books since July 1, 2009. As the newer and more favorable brother to the the Direct Loan income-contingent repayment plan, IBR isn't as well-known.
The IBR plan offers a simpler formula for borrowers than did income-contingent repayments, and is available to both the FFEL and Direct Loan programs as opposed to solely Direct Loans.
How IBR Payments Are Calculated
In order to qualify for IBR, you must must have a "partial financial hardship." You've got a partial financial hardship id your annual federal student loan payments calculated under a ten-year standard repayment plan are greater than 15% of the difference between your adjusted gross income (and that of a spouse, if you're married and file taxes jointly) and 150% of the poverty guideline for your family size and state.
Once it's determined that you have a partial financial hardship, your monthly student loan payment under IBR is capped at 15% of adjusted gross income above 150% of the Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) poverty guideline.
Why IBR Is Awesome (Even If You're Unemployed)
If you qualify for IBR, your payments will be lower than would otherwise be the case. And if you're unemployed, you still qualify for IBR – in fact, your payment would be $0 per month. Why burn through a forbearance period when you can remain in active repayment for $0 per month?
There's also this thing called "IBR forgiveness." Under this program, the government will forgive any remaining loan balances after borrowers repay through an IBR plan for a period not to exceed twenty-five years. Stick with IBR for 25 years and the balance of your loans are forgiven.
The Downside Of Using IBR
Because IBR payments may be lower from time to time than the amount needed to pay off the loan, you may end a particular year owing more than you did at the start. Even in a best-case scenario, using IBR payments will generally mean it takes longer to pay off your federal student loans.
Though you can select IBR if you've got FFELs ro Direct Loans, Federal parent PLUS and Perkins loans are not eligible. If you're a Perkins loans borrowers you may still access the program if you have other loans and can consolidate with Direct loans. I've heard of people going back to school for a single semester solely for the purpose of taking out a Direct Loan they could later use to consolidate with their Perkins Loan.
Applying For IBR
Applying for an income-based repayment plan for your Direct loans or FFELs can be cumbersome and confusing because every student loan servicer handles it a bit differently. The paperwork requirements vary from servicer-to-servicer, and dealing with the proper people on the phone can be frustrating. This says nothing of the annual recertification process, which requires that you justify and prove up your income for the previous year to determine the proper payment amount.
Thankfully, for those who qualify, income-based repayment can be a wonderful way to tame the federal student loan beast.

How To End Your Student Loan Troubles And Get On With Your Life
If you can't pay your student loans, life get a lot tougher. Phone calls and letters rapidly turn into wage garnishment, tax refund intercepts, and collection fees that add up fast.
But the student loan companies are hiding a secret.
We May Be Able To Solve Your Student Loan Problems

Covered are the implications of this theory for our biological and social properties including the evolution of our large brains, language, unique sexual behavior, our history, economics, politics and all empirical evidence supporting this theory. The scientific implications are profound and unite the social and natural sciences into a coherent whole.
2. Engage students of all disciplines in the process of science – learn and participate in how we define theories, collect evidence and use that evidence to test these theories by subjecting them to skeptical public questioning. In this portion of the course, via discussions, you will be asked to critically think and debate varying interpretations of the empirical evidence in relation to the science being brought to your attention.

I was left confused after attending as a witness in an Employment Tribunal held over seven years ago.
The Plaintiff claimed that the MD of a company had demoted the Plaintiff by removing him from his position as Health and Safety Officer, following an argument in which the Plaintiff had wanted answers to some serious H&S issues. The MD claimed under oath that he never removed him.
However, as I was a company director, I had been copied in on an email sent by the MD to an outsourced Human Resources Consultancy, in which, he stated, that now 'X' (the Plaintiff) was no longer the H&S Officer.
The email, confirmed to me, that the Plaintiff was telling the truth and that the MD had lied under oath.
When under questioning, I acknowledged there was an email that spoke in the past tense, the company's barrister claimed it was privileged information, the panel chairman ruled the evidence inadmissible. The Plaintiff lost his case.
To this day, I cannot fathom out how justice was seen to be done. How is it right under such circumstances that evidence to prove without doubt is not allowed to be used because it's privileged information.
Was this in your opinion, wrong?

Comments by Blu
Also Toby extending an invitation as a teenager knowing how his parents are and their feelings about Angelo was too much. I just don't think its the business of this extremely judgmental group of people to be so involved in Angelo's life without his consent. He's entitled to his own privacy. He shouldn't be required to have all his personal business out on displsy when no one else does. What goes on between him and this woman should not be decided by the entire kennish and Vasquez family. This continues to floor me.
I'm not fully understanding regina and her hand thing. I think it could have been explained better. So no signing, hair, or painting but driving, writing, typing etc is ok? Why exactly can't she continue signing and is that somehow more rigorous than everyday activities with her hands?
Oh these people. That Natalie girl, I understand her position but bullying is still bullying. No one gets a free pass. The irony of her being so snotty is that she's treating hearing people the way she hates them treating her. Why take it out on the people who are making a conscious effort to communicate with you the same way you get pissed at the people who don't and expect you to adapt? Not even knowing these kids and why they are doing this, like wonderful Noah who was most compelling. I adored his character and his story, reminded me of a relative. Melody has always been a grown up mean girl. Her reaction didn't surprise me. How is it Angelo wasn't even IN the episode and they still found time to berate him? Still not getting the Angelo hate fest, imo it reflects poorly on the other characters and is overdone. I don't trust or get the pregnant girl.Still makes little sense that she's around just because.
I actually like Tamsin. The girl got spunk. I don't hate it. I've caught all the previous episodes but for some reason I don't recall when and how vex became part of the group,hanging out with kenzi (which I like oddly enough) and living with her and Bo. Can anyone help me out with that?
@R Right? Like I don't typically read too much into stuff like that but it felt like they went out of their way to imply this new sense of awkwardness. Especially given Aidens terrible luck with women human and vampire. I don't know if they'll actually go there or if I want them to but I noticed that too.I think now may be the best time for him not to get distracted by a woman as he's known to do.
Oh Sally, I knew that was going to happen the moment she seen the guy but I guess she wouldn't be Sally or help the story any if she didn't go against the warning. I was happy to finally see the reunion I needed to see between the friends.Agree with this completely. Especially about the werewolves. Ugh I was so over them (and mother and suren) last season so their father coming made me sigh. Its been a year.
I mean if we are so willing to differentiate between "normal "people then why get so up and arms about fictional ones?
Doesn't mean I condone sociopathic behavior or serial killing. Its great that philosophy is brought up. As a social scientist I find these discussions interesting and find that snap judgments made from tiny facets of a character or the people who like that character more specifically kind of sad. Especially when some of the people guilty of such didn't like it or got equally defensive when it was thrown back at them. I never demand to know why people hate a character and ask in such a tone that implies that that person is somehow wrong for hating them. My overall point being extend the same courtesy.
I never said that anyone who doesn't like Olivia is sexist. But I did point out sociologically if you will that in general I find the response to Olivia's actions over anyone else's to be interesting. She's often times held to a different standard than most of the other characters. IN GENERAL. Scandal conversations have brought up all sorts of interesting points about politics, marriage, race, gender roles...I thought it was a valid part of this discussion which I've had plenty times before. Apologies if it got people hot and bothered. also find it disheartening that just because fans choose to like Olivia Pope as a fictional character their morals as human beings are coming under attack. Honestly, I'm more than willing to admit that I get defensive about that. I understand why people may not like Olivia when they make fair points so why call into question why people do? My generalizations can just as well be in response to sweeping accusations.My favorite character is Huck. Doesn't mean I condone sociopathic behavior or serial killing in reality.
I loved that Jackson stood up to Arizona. She's one of the most irritating characters. Too condescending for words. I like Owen and Yang together. It works. Derek can be such a self righteous jackass. Out of nowhere he decides to blame Owen for everything which it was too many factors to put it all on him. Plus he was Chief before. He knows what type of decisions are made. Hell, the hospital got shot up and people died under his watch. No suits came from that, no responsibility for crappy security features. No blame. Bailey's story was hilarious. I don't mind Alex and princess as friends but unfortunately I doubt it'll Stay that way. The naivete of the settlement is shocking. Did they honestly think they'd still be working there after that? And that was before Owen found out the hospital could close. Insurance companies and their loopholes.
@CleoArizona is NOT Jackson's superior. He's an attendee now. And as per usual she interfered with stuff when it wasn't necessary. I'm sorry but she can be rude, condescending, and a royal pain in the ass. Why not respect the fact that he was Mark's progeny. The chosen one who kicked ass in plastics. Mark is gone now, and it was clear Arizona wasn't coming to grips with that and overstepping her bounds. She still treats them like residents or interns rather than peers. You can't instill in them all these teachings and then not trust your own work and their abilities. Also has always been inconsistently written, sure at one point he was klutzy and botching surgeries(as were most of them honestly) but when he first came he was the rockstar giving Yang a run for her money. Avery only lacked skill after that shooting in the hospital. I chalked it up as PTSD which he clearly had.
@Marcus. She's flawed. She's human. I can write an essay on why I like Olivia Pope. I can go dissect the sexist response some viewers have in response to her character because I guarantee you a great deal of the naysayers wouldn't detest her or many of her actions so much if she were a man. Case in point being the disdain you exhibit over Olivia's infidelity but no mention of the same disdain for the married man cheating on his wife (who has also cheated on him because the irony of the sanctity of marriage being crapped on is that the Grant marriage is a orchestrated business deal more then anything) . I could discuss the realistic portrayal of a strong woman who is also vulnerable and successfully manages to break free of some of the stereotypes women and African Americans are pigeon holed into. But it'll all come down to her being flawed and human. And no matter what anyone says your mind won't be changed so why bother asking? :)


text: Severe weather affected the northern two-thirds of central Illinois during the afternoon and evening hours of Thursday, June 10th. Numerous reports of funnel clouds and damaging winds were received as thunderstorms rapidly developed across the area. In addition, torrential rain fell across east-central Illinois, where flash flooding became a problem during the overnight hours. Early in the day on June 10th, a nearly stationary frontal boundary stretched from southern Wisconsin into Iowa. To the south of the front, a southwesterly wind flow was transporting deep atmospheric moisture into central Illinois. As a result of an upper level disturbance, a large area of light to moderate rain had developed during the overnight hours across northern parts of the area. The morning rain was mainly confined to locations along and north of I-72...with areas to the south remaining dry. After sunrise, temperatures quickly climbed well into the 80s across southern Illinois, where skies were mostly clear. Meanwhile, the cloud cover and rain kept temperatures in the lower 70s further north across much of central Illinois. The rain area diminished and lifted northward by midday, leaving behind a rather pronounced temperature gradient that would later serve as the focusing mechanism for scattered severe storms later in the afternoon. After a few hours of sunshine, scattered thunderstorms began to develop in the rapidly destabilizing environment. Storms that developed or moved close to the differential heating boundary left behind by the morning rain began to show signs of rotation on radar. Funnel clouds were reported as several mini supercells tracked northeastward across the area...with the strongest storms affecting Tazewell...Logan...and McLean counties. Eventually, the boundary across the region began to weaken and lift northward, diminishing the threat for rotating storms. After that, some of the storms began to take on a more linear structure, resulting in damaging winds in a few locations, including a 75 mph gust at the NWS in Lincoln. As the evening went on, the threat shifted from severe weather to heavy rain and flooding. Numerous thunderstorms tracked across parts of east-central Illinois, dumping tremendous amounts of rain. The SWOP observer near Bismarck in Vermilion County picked up 5.10, while the Philo SWOP reported 4.44. As a result of the heavy rainfall, many fields and roadways became covered with water, prompting the issuance of flash flood warnings for these locations. |

Man accused of shooting 2 sheriff's deputies to stand trial: Deputy testifies Jesus spoke to him
Dan Witczak also faces child molestation charges
EL CAJON, Calif. - A man accused of wounding two sheriff's deputies, who went to his Lakeside apartment to investigate allegations that he abused his girlfriend's daughters, was ordered Thursday to stand trial on attempted murder and child molestation charges.
Daniel Robert Witczak, 30, who was also wounded during a 15-minute gun battle with officers, is accused of molesting the girls, ages 6 and 8, two days before the Sept. 25 shootout that left sheriff's Detective Ali Perez and Sgt. Craig Johnson seriously wounded. Both are recovering.
Witczak faces 190 years to life in prison if convicted of three counts of attempted murder and eight child molest charges, Deputy District Attorney Damon Mosler said.
Thursday's preliminary hearing was delayed for nearly 20 minutes after the defendant refused to enter the courtroom.
The judge called in extra deputies to help bring Witczak inside. Once in the courtroom, the defendant was shackled to his seat because deputies said he was found with weapons twice while in jail.
Perez testified that he, Johnson and other deputies went to an apartment in the 12700 block of Mapleview Street and he kicked in the door when the defendant didn't answer.
"I heard a pop, my ears were ringing, my vision went out a little bit -- like static on the TV -- and when I gathered my senses, I was on the ground," Perez said.
He said he was just inside the apartment, lying on his back, and bleeding from a significant wound to his upper arm.
He saw that Johnson had suffered a wound to his arm and heard him give the radio call for "officer down," Perez said.
The deputy said he unloaded half of his 15-round magazine as a crouching Witczak peered out from his position in a hallway. The defendant came out again and shot him in the chest with a round that penetrated his body armor, he said.
After emptying his magazine, Perez said he lost his weapon and Witczak closed the door, trapping him inside.
"I'm in a fight for my life and right now I'm losing," Perez said.
He said he was coming to terms with his own death as he lay on the floor when a "miracle" happened.
"My Lord and savior was sitting there right between me and the defendant. He was sitting in a chair and writing notes," Perez said.
Jesus handed him a note that told him to bless Witczak, according to Perez. He said that while he regretted leaving his wife and children behind, he was comfortable with dying since Jesus was with him, so he complied.
"So I said, 'God bless you, brother,'" Perez said. He said he repeated the blessing at some point.
Witczak asked him if he wanted to go outside and join his friends and tried to open the door for him, but retreated from a hail of bullets, Perez testified. The defendant then laid down beside him and said, "Let's go together," according to the deputy.
Perez said he feared he was about to be executed, but the defendant said he couldn't do it and returned to the hallway. The deputy said he took that as a cue to leave, so he slid outside and was rescued by responding law enforcement officers.
Perez estimated that he has undergone between 20 and 40 surgeries since the shootings and barely has use of his left arm. A shattered rib had to be removed, and he also suffered damage to his lung and other organs.
Johnson said he was struck in the arm just as he saw Perez on the ground. When he realized the bullet had also traveled into the side of his chest, he and another deputy retreated to a nearby apartment to wait until reinforcements arrived, he said.
According to the suspect's girlfriend, the events that led to the gunfire began about 7:30 a.m., when she found cell-phone photos and videos of Witczak, an out-of-work auto mechanic, allegedly engaging in sex acts with her daughters.
She left their apartment to call the sheriff's department. Later in the morning, during a call being monitored by investigators, the suspect allegedly admitted to the crimes, claiming he had received an offer of $50,000 to post the pornographic images online.
The woman said she was still on the phone with Witczak when the detective and sergeant arrived at the couple's apartment and, a short time later, shots rang out.
The attempted murder counts involved Perez, Johnson and a third law enforcement officer, who was fired upon but not hit. The charges include allegations of discharging a firearm and causing great bodily injury.
Witczak also faces six counts of lewd acts upon a child under the age of 10, and one count each of intercourse with a child under 10 and oral copulation with a child under 10. The charges include allegations of multiple victims.
Judge William McGrath scheduled a hearing for April 4, when the defendant will receive a trial date.

Michael Bailey, Formula One correspondent
Thursday, November 22, 2012
It may well have been a wonderful season full of twists, turns and stellar performances – and there may well be more to come in Brazil – but there should be little doubt Austin raised the bar again.
• GW – Lewis Hamilton: Judging by Mercedes' current form, it's worth taking the time to enjoy Lewis at the top of his game with McLaren – it was a fitting farewell to his boyhood team.
• BW – Caterham: Out-qualified by both Marussias in Austin, and while they recovered in the race, it's fair to say the second half of 2012 has been one to forget.
In reality, the usual discussion points attached to Formula One trying to make it stateside are old hat. There is a true, organic underground appreciation of F1 in the US – one farmed on the fertile plains of the internet. Proof came this weekend.
Days of full grandstands and passionate crowds – even with Nascar competing for people's attention.
The purpose-built track lovingly crafted and delivered on time, relatively to budget and despite a few internal squabbles and writs.
And most importantly, an enthralling race on arguably the best designed Formula One track for many a year.
"It's not very easy to find a driver like me…"
F1 has a US home. The sport is there to stay. More is set to come.
In all honesty, even if the USA hasn't lapped up Sunday's events, the rest of us would have – led by Ferrari's audacious manipulation of the rules.
Their deliberate breaking of the seal on Felipe Massa's gearbox – all with the aim of earning the Brazilian a five-place grid penalty and therefore sending championship challenger Fernando Alonso to the better gripped outside of the grid – was bold, fiercely competitive and ultimately a masterstroke.
And what's more, their honesty in stating what they were doing and why, as they did it, should earn them respect. It's deceit, treating the watching public like fools, that deserves denouncing.
Ferrari merely took a gamble and saw it pay off. It may yet earn an even bigger result after Sunday.
In 2010, with Alonso leading the championship heading into the final race in Abu Dhabi, Maranello botched their title pursuit as dodgy strategy calls played a part in Sebastian Vettel earning his first drivers' crown.
Switch to Austin 2012, and Narain Karthikayen's inability to follow the annoying blue flags and submit to Vettel – and to the detriment of his own, admittedly futile race – effectively handed Lewis Hamilton the race win and ultimately kept Alonso's title challenge alive.
Now, only one more Red Bull alternator failure and an Alonso podium would see the Spaniard get his revenge.
For those who believe in fate, Austin may well have done more than simply reintroduce the US to F1.
• It could be Heikki Kovalainen is not only on the brink of leaving Formula One, but that it will happen with a fairly unwanted record in tow.
As things stand, there is a large question mark hanging above the Finn's future. Kovalainen is proven in F1, and that has previously saved him from bringing in the budget and sponsors others would need to secure a seat.
But the sport has changed and Caterham, if the speculation is to be believed, look set to name two new drivers with fresh financial impetus for the 2013 season.
And on top of that, the Finn now needs to hope for a miracle to avoid more misery.
Unless Kovalainen can somehow manufacture the Hingham-backed constructor's first point since arriving in the sport at this season's finalé in Brazil, he will become the driver with the longest run of pointless finishes.
Italian Piercarlo Ghinzani was the previous record holder, picking up 59 race failures after his fifth at Dallas in 1984 for Osella. Spells with Ligier, Tolemann and Zakspeed saw him unable to add to his career points tally before leaving the sport.
Kovalainen's finish outside the top 10 in Austin – something to be expected given Caterham are yet to score a championship point since joining the F1 grid in 2010 – equalled Ghinzani's record meaning the Finn will hold the dubious distinction all on his own should the expected happen in Sao Paulo on Sunday.
That said, it isn't all Caterham's fault – Heikki's run began at the 2009 Japanese Grand Prix, when he was still with McLaren.
"I'd much rather be setting a record for most consecutive points-scoring positions than non-scoring, but it is what it is," Kovalainen told Autosport. And of course, his future also remains up for discussion.
"I'm not in favour of raising a budget; I've told my management I don't want to do that," he added. "If I don't get a race drive, I'll have to do something else. That would be a shame, but sometimes that's how life is."

Problem solving with Vim
The Vim editor supports Perl plugins that let users manipulate the text they have just edited. Complex functions can be developed far faster than with Vim's integrated scripting language.
If somebody applies for an entry-level job in Yahoo's Perl division and has the pleasure of visiting me for a job interview, I might just ask the candidate the following question: "How do you add line numbers to a Perl listing, such as the ones typically used by computer magazines?"

News 12 First at Five, May 30, 2007
AUGUSTA, Ga.---All of the five Richmond County graduations set for tomorrow are special, but one stands out because of the father who's come nearly seven thousand miles to see his son take that walk.
Charity Cruz and her 15-year-old daughter Christina were by far the two most anxious people at the airport, waiting for a husband and a father.
Then the happy moment came.
Sergeant First Class Edwin Cruz from Fort Gordon has been in Iraq since August. Now he's back in the arms of his wife and daughter.
But there's more to this mission. The next stop is TW Josey High School, where 18-year-old Edwin Junior is attending graduation practice.
Words aren't needed for what comes next.
Soon a gym-full of grads-to-be joins the welcome.
Cruz is home for two weeks of R&R. It's a time of celebration and family time too...time to catch up after months apart.
The family is together again for one of life's precious moments.
The TW Josey graduation is at 11 am tomorrow in James Brown Arena. What a day for SFC Cruz, his son, and the family.

Mix romance with adventure by planning a destination wedding in one of these six exotic locations.
Why: Besides being full of unbelievably friendly (and active) folks, there are a host of reasons to consider staging your nuptials in Australia. The land "down unda" features gorgeous landscapes -- from urban cities to the rugged Outback to the unforgettable Great Barrier reef -- as well as upscale eateries influenced by Europe, Asian, and home-grown spicing. And the local wines are world-class; try a cordon, shiraz, or a merlot.
When to go: The climate tends to be balmy, and without extremes, since most cities are on oceans. During the summer (December to March) some areas can be fantastically hot. Be sure to pack sunscreen, sunglasses, and rain protection all year long.
Guest activities: Check out the Great Barrier Reef off Queensland or the Ningaloo Reef out west for unbeatable scuba diving or snorkeling. The Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast offer jet skiing, parasailing, water-skiing, and windsurfing for your active guests, or thrill seekers can go whitewater rafting in Tasmania or take a four-wheel trek through the Outback. For guests who like their adventures a bit more contained, Australia boasts several amazing zoos, or visit Kangaroo Island for wildlife packed with seals, sea lions, wallabies, black swans, pink lorikeets, and, of course, kangaroos. For a truly aboriginal experience, sign up for a guided walk with a native. (And don't be afraid to eat the bugs if your guide suggests it -- if you dare!)
Park Hyatt Melbourne (Melbourne.Park.Hyatt.com) Let the Hyatt's professional staff take care of every wedding detail from flowers to music to so much more. They offer catering services and meeting advisors to ensure every detail goes smoothly. They even offer complimentary nights at the Hyatt Resort of your choice based on the wedding package you choose -- up to five free nights!

High Order Structural Matching Using Dominant Cluster Analysis AbstractWe formulate the problem of high order structural matching by applying dominant cluster analysis (DCA) to a direct product hypergraph (DPH). For brevity we refer to the resulting algorithm as DPH-DCA. The DPH-DCA can be considered as an extension of the game theoretic algorithms presented in from clustering to matching, and also as a reduced version of reduced version of the method of ensembles of affinity relations presented in [6]. The starting point for our method is to construct a K-uniform direct product hypergraph for the two sets of higher-order features to be matched. Each vertex in the direct product hypergraph represents a potential correspondence and the weight on each hyperedge represents the agreement between two K-tuples drawn from the two feature sets. Vertices representing correct assignment tend to form a strongly intra-connected cluster, i.e. a dominant cluster. We evaluate the association of each vertex belonging to the dominant cluster by maximizing an objective function which maintains the K-tuple agreements. The potential correspondences with nonzero association weights are more likely to belong to the dominant cluster than the remaining zero-weighted ones. They are thus selected as correct matchings subject to the one-to-one correspondence constraint. Furthermore, we present a route to improving the matching accuracy by invoking prior knowledge. An experimental evaluation shows that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art high order structural matching methods.

Al-Attiyah and French co-driver Matthieu Baumel turned an overnight lead of 39min 38sec into an advantage of 1hr 05min 11sec over Polish Toyota Hilux driver Adam Malysz with one stage remaining in the fourth round of the FIA World Cup for Cross-Country Rallies.
"I am quite happy," said Al-Attiyah. "I had no reason to push today. It is very easy to make a mistake here. Matthieu has been excellent all week. No problems with the car and we just have to do the same again one more time. This rally is now at a high level. The navigation is probably the most difficult of them all."
Poland's Krzysztof Holowczyc lost his chance of taking a top finish with overheating issues on Wednesday, but the Mini driver stormed back with a useful performance on day four. He was leading the stage all the way to PC5 before losing time with navigational issues. "This rally is very different," said the Pole. "This is a co-driver's rally. This is not for the driver. You push like hell for hours and then one mistake and it's back to square one again."
Toyota's Marek Dabrowski claimed second position on the day and Overdrive team-mate Malysz took advantage of Vladimir Vasilyev's lengthy navigational delays to snatch second overall by just 5min 20sec.
The dogfight between Honda and KTM continued into day four; overnight leader Joan Barreda, riding a Honda CRF 450, ceded the overall advantage to KTM's Marc Coma for the second time in four days, although the stage win fell to Honda's Paolo Goncalves.
The two leading Spaniards will now go head-to-head on Friday, with Barreda having the sizeable advantage of following the four-time Dakar winner and defending Sealine champion through the stage. Coma has a lead of 41 seconds and starts two minutes ahead of his rival.
"I know it's going to be difficult now," said Coma. "It was a very hard day with a very high level of navigation. I lost my rhythm a little towards the end and I now have to give it a go tomorrow. That's all I can do."
Goncalves was delighted with the stage win. "I have been recovering time since the first day and it was good to get back a lot of that time against my rivals today. It was a difficult and demanding stage. Tomorrow is the last day and I will need to concentrate and not make a navigation mistake. I have a chance still. You never know."
Barreda admits that he needs to remain focused. "The strategy is working well. Now I need to keep my concentration and not make any navigational error. I will need to push and catch Marc and stay with him. That is the plan."
After his navigational woes on Wednesday, Poland's Rafal Sonik caught Abu Issa, the pair rode together and the Pole managed to win the quad stage by 5min 07sec. Qatar's Mohammed Abu Issa takes a comfortable unofficial advantage of 29min 14sec into the final selective section on Friday and, barring a late disaster, should snatch the Sealine title from the defending champion.
SS4 – as it happened
There was no respite in the difficulty of the navigation. The fourth 404.18km selective section headed northwest from Sealine towards the Salwa Road and carried on towards Al Owaina before turning west and then south towards Al Kharsaah and then back in a south-easterly direction to Sealine.
There were five passage controls at 46.89km, 120.73km, 175.41km, 228.32km and 242.82km with a finish over a sharp dune.
One hundred hours of time penalties had pushed Yazeed Al-Rajhi and Krzysztof Holowczyc down to 15th and 16th overall of the remaining 19 cars in the event. Neither driver held any chance of scoring FIA World Cup points and Overdrive Toyota team manager Jean-Marc Fortin decided that Al-Rajhi should retire from the event and return to Saudi Arabia in advance of next week's Jordan Rally. Holowczyc decided to continue for testing purposes and experience. Denis Berezovskiy and Emirati Ali Al-Shawi also retired.
Thirteen motorcycles and two quads resumed the competition. Coma was running 1min 18sec quicker than Barreda by PC1, although Helder Rodrigues was the fastest rider on the course. Sunderland fell after 45km and sustained a suspected wrist fracture to cap a disappointing event for the Dubai-based Briton.
Coma continued to attack. He knew that to overturn the Honda strategy he would need to eke out a good lead on today's stage and he passed the top Honda rider and led by 2min 08sec at PC2. Goncalves was now the stage pacesetter.
Holowczyc was the quickest of the car entrants to PC1 and PC2 from a starting position of 16 and Abu Issa was managing to hold off the Sonik challenge in the quads and had a virtual stage lead of 58 seconds at PC2.
Coma, Barreda and Rodrigues arrived together at PC3 and PC4, and Rodrigues had gained the virtual stage lead at the refuelling point. Barreda was playing the strategy perfectly and shadowing Coma's every move. Sonik edged into a small lead over Abu Issa in the quads and Vasilyev made a navigational error before PC3 and dropped over 25 minutes to third-placed Adam Malysz.
The leading riders had formed groups of three and two at PC5. Rodrigues retained the lead and Coma held a 2min 08sec lead over Barreda heading into the final section across the breadth of Qatar. Ruben Faria had already called it a day and returned to Sealine after PC3.
Goncalves held on to take the stage win and Coma moved 41 seconds in front of Barreda heading into the final day. Al-Attiyah also cruised to the stage finish and extended his massive lead in the car category, while Malysz shadowed Dabrowski through the final kilometres and the Toyota duo crossed the finish line together.
Tomorrow (Friday), competitors will tackle the fifth and final 362.97km selective section in a loop around the south of Qatar before returning to the Sealine bivouac for the official podium finish and the traditional post-event press conference.

EDINBURG, TEXAS (NEWS CENTER 23) — The University of Texas-Pan American's College of Health Sciences and Human Services (CHSHS) is taking community engagement a step further and branching out to one of the Rio Grande Valley's most popular venues—the "pulga."
The Community Health Education/Promotion (CHEP) team, spearheaded by the CHSHS, distributes health education and promotion information at area flea markets– otherwise known in the RGV as the pulgas–and other public gatherings.
"The goal for CHEP is to reach large groups of people who typically may not have access to information regarding diabetes, obesity, and other health problems predominately affecting the RGV community," said Dr. John Ronnau, dean of the CHSHS. "I think people are very pleased to see UTPA have a presence within the community and doing what a college should be doing by getting more engaged. We are committed to our community responsibility."
The CHEP team hands out information printed in English and Spanish, answers questions, and provides referrals, along with blood pressure checks and other health screenings when available. Launched in Fall 2012, the CHEP team initially set up a booth at the Alamo flea market and since then has attended various flea markets and health events in Alton, Donna, Mission, and at Sharyland Independent School District.
Leila Flores, UTPA doctoral student in rehabilitation counseling and CHEP director, said there has been an overwhelming community response.
"The feedback has been very positive and the information well received," she said. "Everywhere people share how there is such a need for this type of information. Many of them mention they have not previously received this type of information due to busy doctors or insufficient health care and they discuss their plans to share the information with family and friends."
The CHEP team consists of students and faculty advisors from all disciplines of the college who are dedicated to making UTPA more engaged with the community.
"It is important for the community to see UTPA not as a separate entity but rather as a committed institution, providing information and solutions for their health concerns," Flores said.
Dr. Shawn Saladin, associate dean of CHSHS and director of the Valley-ICAN program at UTPA, said he is optimistic about student involvement and the projected future of CHEP.
"There are already several students from the Valley-ICAN program directly involved with CHEP," he said.
Valley I-CAN, which stands for Valley Independent Confident Activities Network, prepares UTPA students with a concentration in deaf rehabilitation the opportunity to become professional consultants to deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals seeking full inclusion into the community.
"CHEP provides the opportunity for capstone students to gain service hours while sharing the knowledge they have acquired from their respective programs and in turn, be able to serve their communities. Ideally, we hope to increase the number of students involved." Saladin said. "In the future, the College of Health Sciences and Human Services would have the opportunity to branch out, further cooperate with the South Texas Border Health Disparities Center and the Border Health Office, and include all disciplines and programs in the college and their student organizations."
Ronnau said he expects the college to establish a weekly presence in the community, conduct research to obtain input from Valley residents, and identify what potential solutions can be offered.
The CHEP team will be at the Ochoa flea market in Mission on Sunday, Feb. 10, from 8 a.m.-1 p.m. To participate in CHEP, or for more information, contact Flores at the Department of Rehabilitation Services (956) 665-7036 or email email@example.com [1].

Question here. I bought a Dell computer late in June of '05. It came w/ one year of MacAfee anti-virus, firewall, etc, etc.
Been happy w/ it, no issues. About 6 mos ago they started hitting me w/ "renew now" at 20% savings about every month. My 1 yr subscription was up 2 months ago, yet I still download my updates every day or few.
Well the first renew that came was 20% off, then a month or so later it was 30% off...then it was 35%...then 40%, "renew now"...etc. The most recent was 50% off at $65 for a year.
Anybody have any feedback on how low they will go if I keep holding off? Or should I not be greedy and take it now. Adding a different anti-virus/firewall could cause me and my system problems. Not to mention the time involved doing an install, troubleshooting, unblocking sights that I don't want the firewall to block, permissions, etc.
Thanks, Mark

USD 489 continues teacher cuts

By JUDY SHERARD
The numbers haven't been released yet, but some Hays USD 489 staff members -- maybe nearly 20 -- likely will receive pink slips before the school year is finished.
Staff members whose positions might be cut have been advised of that during the past few days, Superintendent Dean Katt said.
School principals have been involved in the decision-making process of which positions to cut, he said.
With the expected staff cuts, class sizes are predicted to be 21.65 at the elementary level, and in the core classes, 25.4 in the middle school and 23.35 at the high school, according to information from the district.
James Leiker, Hays USD 489 Board of Education vice president, said he doesn't like having to cut any positions because of the impact on people's lives.
"I hate to lose anybody," he said.
The staff cuts are part of the district's effort to offset an anticipated $1.3 million shortfall in next year's budget.
Because of the deficit, there's a "definite strong possibility" job cuts are coming, Leiker said.
Staff cuts would make up the largest chunk -- $973,000 -- of the deficit reduction, according to information released by the district.
Other staff-related budget items that could be implemented for fiscal year 2015 are reducing extended days or extra duties, amounting to $63,800, and English Language Learners staff reorganization, $70,000. A four-day summer work week for year-round staff could net $20,000 in utility savings.
Depending on staff retirements and resignations in the next few weeks, the actual number of job positions cut could change, Katt said.
Kathy Wagoner, bargaining unit co-chairwoman and Hays High School teacher, emphasized positions are being cut, not specific people.
"We support all our colleagues," she said. "I believe every single one of them will rise above it."
Hays-NEA isn't involved in the reduction of staff process or decision-making, except to make sure the district follows the contract language in such cases, and administrators have worked with the union in that, she said.
District officials also are looking at increasing some fees to make up the deficit.
Charging a fee for transportation of students within 2.5 miles from an attendance center still is on the table, Leiker said.
Fees for all-day kindergarten are unlikely.
"We're not talking about it," Leiker said.
Katt said a resolution to make the staff position cuts official probably will be on the agenda for the board of education's meeting set for April 21.
Some of the board's decisions might hinge on what the state legislature does, Katt said.
Rep. Sue Boldra, R-Hays, said the education bill passed Friday night in the House was "a pretty clean bill," and "meets what the (Supreme) Court asked," which included assistance in state aid for local option budgets and capital outlay budgets.
Previously Katt had estimated USD 489 could get $160,000 more in state aid for its local option budget but receives no state aid for capital outlay.
The House bill included the $14 per pupil increase in state aid that the legislature approved last year.
If it makes it through the process, it would mean $63,300 in additional money for the Hays district based on the current year's enrollment.
In the final tally, Katt said he doesn't expect to see any additional money from the state.
"I just don't want to lose everything we gain," he said.
Sen. Ralph Ostmeyer, R-Grinnell, declined to comment on education funding until a bill is passed when contacted Friday afternoon.

About Stephen
I was born in 1955 in Richmond, Va., a segregated town given to memorializing a war it had lost 90 years before. My parents had neither money nor social status, and yet my upbringing was pathologically cheerful. I was baptized Roman Catholic and I played with Protestant friends. My father belonged to the Knights of Columbus and designed floats for the Tobacco Parade. One year I rode the float dressed as a monk. A legacy from that moment is that I felt in my heart I would be famous.
The world was being transformed by social revolutions associated with sex and drugs, and I wanted to contribute. Indeed, my prowess in drug abuse was so great that I never finished high school and only made it to college at the age of 28. By then I'd been properly chastised by life and was attending 12-step meetings. Eventually I graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University (English) and headed to New York City to seek my fame. Luckily for me, I arrived just in time to be swept away by the intense cultural fervor of the Giuliani years. I wound up living in Ridgewood, Queens.
My Ph.D. dissertation (NYU) concerned one of the great losers of American literary history, James Branch Cabell. Cabell inspired me, and I dreamed of achieving a similar notoriety for obscurity. When I was in my forties, a novel I wrote was accepted by an unknown house that went bankrupt just before the book was due to appear. Did I lose hope? Oh no, I never forgot that I'd once been a monk on a float in Richmond's Tobacco Parade.
As you see, such rugged determination has paid off. My novel, If Jack's in Love, is soon to be published by Amy Einhorn Books. I should point out that If Jack's in Love is not to be confused with the one that didn't appear, the ghost of which still haunts the pages of Amazon.

A state senator from Olean is proposing new legislation requiring cameras be mounted on those stop signs you see on school buses. Senator Cathy Young's bill is a welcome piece of legislation to many of those who keep kids safe.
There are rules to live by. In some cases, there are cameras to enforce them. And in some instances, both are ignored.
"Some people don't care,"said Herman Dunham. "Some of them stop, some don't."
In his job as a school crossing guard, Herman Dunham sees it all.
"It's dangerous. You got a lot of nuts out here. Drinking, drugs. They don't care."
That includes school buses, stopped, with red lights flashing and stop sign clearly extended.
"I'm out there, hold the sign up, and sometimes the cars don't even stop," said Dunham. "Yeah, sometimes cars pass the buses."
Kathy: "We have a lot of problems with them passing the reds," said Kathy Callon, director of transportation in the East Irondequoit School District.
Bus drivers see it too.
"It's very concerning."
In East Irondequoit, bus drivers report five to ten violators a week.
"It's always a concern that will your child come home safe. When you send them to school you expect them to come home safe," Callon said.
Keeping them safe is the idea behind new state legislation which would require cameras be installed on the stop arm of all school buses in New York; cameras which could record violators.
"If they do implement it and they follow through with it, hopefully the number of vehicles passed will go down," said Callon.
If the proposed legislation were to pass, then passing a school bus would be costly. Fines starting anywhere from $250 to $400.
"That's a good idea, put the cameras up there," said Dunham.
Those who keep kids safe for a living know even tougher laws and cameras on buses won't stop everyone.
"It's bad for the kids, y'know?"
But it's a start to putting a stop to a dangerous move.
"I hope it does, but it will slow it down."

Pelletier, Christine and Chaussalet, Thierry J. and Xie, Haifeng (2005) On the use of multi-state multi-census techniques for modelling the survival of elderly people in institutional long-term care. IMA Journal of Management Mathematics, 16 (3). pp. 255-264. ISSN 1471-678X
Full text not available from this repository.
Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/imaman/dpi021
A good estimate of the length of stay (LOS) of elderly people in institutional long-term care (ILTC) is essential to both care providers (care home owners) and purchasers (local authorities in the UK) in order to forecast their resource availability and future requirements. Existing methods usually rely on cohort data, which needs to be collected on a continuous basis for several years and are often not available electronically. In this paper we develop an approach based on multi-census data to fit a Markov model in continuous-time for the LOS of elderly people in ILTC (residential and nursing care). We use 3 year placement data provided by London Borough of Merton Social Services to compare the estimates of the model parameters obtained using multi-census data with those derived from cohort data, hence to validate the multi-census approach in this context. The implications of the proposed multi-census approach and its advantages in the context of long-term care planning are discussed.

text: New terrorist plot to attack plane foiledFrom Pam Benson, CNNUpdated 0327 GMT (1027 HKT) May 8, 2012Just WatchedBergen: Bomb maker is 'most dangerous'replayMore Videos ...Bergen: Bomb maker is 'most dangerous' 01:07Story highlights Device was meant to be put on a U.S.-bound airline, says U.S. Rep. Peter KingThe intended user of the bomb in no longer a threat, officials saysA senior U.S. official says the device points to al Qaeda in the Arabian PeninsulaThe device was seized abroad, and the plot was discovered before it threatened any airlinersU.S. and other intelligence agencies recently broke up a plot to bomb an airliner and have seized an explosive device that is similar to ones previously used by al Qaeda, officials said Monday.The plot was discovered before it threatened any Americans, and no airliners were at risk, one U.S. counterterrorism official said. A nonmetallic explosive device like the one used in the failed attempt to bomb a Detroit-bound jet in 2009 was recovered, the official said, adding that it was meant for use by a suicide bomber.A spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security said authorities have "no specific, credible information regarding an active terrorist plot against the U.S. at this time," although they continue to monitor efforts to carry out such attacks.President Barack Obama was told about the plot in April, and the attempt "underscores the necessity of remaining vigilant against terrorism here and abroad," the White House said.The threat was foiled around the same time as the anniversary of the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, although a second U.S. counterterrorism official said the attempted attack was not timed to coincide with the death of the al Qaeda leader."What this incident makes clear is that this country has to continue to remain vigilant against those that would seek to attack this country. And we will do everything necessary to keep America safe," Defense Secretary Leon Panetta soon after news of the plot broke.Just WatchedBomb similar to 'underwear bomber' replayMore Videos ...Bomb similar to 'underwear bomber' 01:25PLAY VIDEOJust WatchedPanetta: We must keep America safereplayMore Videos ...Panetta: We must keep America safe 00:51PLAY VIDEOThe FBI said it is conducting technical and forensic analysis on the improvised explosive device that was seized abroad.The device is similar to others previously used by al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), which Western officials describe as al Qaeda's most dangerous affiliate, the FBI said.The device was meant to be put on a U.S.-bound airline, U.S. Rep. Peter King, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, told CNN's Anderson Cooper.The New York Republican said discovery of the bomb plot is just one part of an ongoing operation."It's not over as far as the operation itself, which is why you're seeing very few details being given out," he said.Both King and a senior administration official said the intended user of the bomb is no longer a threat.The recovered device, which never made it near an airport or airplane, was not built to be a so-called body bomb, the official said."AQAP is the responsible group here," said a different senior U.S. official."While similar, a preliminary review of this device shows that it has some significant differences from the device used in the Christmas Day attack. It is clear that AQAP is revamping its bomb techniques to try to avoid the causes of the failure of the 2009 device," the official said, referring to the Detroit incident.U.S. officials believe AQAP has more than 1,000 members in Yemen and connections to al Qaeda leadership in Pakistan.The Yemen affiliate has been behind two of the most audacious attempts to target the United States in recent years: the attempted 2009 bombing and the printer bombs loaded onto cargo planes in 2010 and destined for an address in Chicago.In both cases, U.S. authorities believe the bombs were built by Ibrahim al-Asiri. Both devices contained a main charge of PETN, a white powdery explosive that conventional "single beam" X-ray machines are rarely able to detect.In 2009, al-Asiri fitted out his own brother, Abdullah al-Asiri, with a PETN-based underwear bomb to kill Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, a top Saudi security official. The device killed his brother instantly but failed to kill its target.Senior al Qaeda operative killed by airstrike in YemenThe government of Yemen has been fighting AQAP for years, with mixed results.On Sunday, a senior AQAP operative wanted for his role in the USS Cole bombing was killed by an airstrike in Yemen, officials said.Fahd al Quso, 37, was killed while riding in a vehicle in the Rafdh district in Shabwa province. He was hit by a CIA drone strike, U.S. officials told CNN.The weekend attack plus the foiled airline plot delivered a "one-two punch" against AQAP, said the senior administration official."This was a key victory for us. It also reminds us, though, that this war is not going to end in Afghanistan. Al Qaeda has metastasized and morphed. And they are constantly attempting to find new ways to get at us," said King.More from middleeastFlorida man arrested in UAE for Facebook post: I'm sorryISIS claims American carried out suicide attackPowered by Livefyre

Two of our instruments, the XPS spectrometer Axis-165, and the Auger Microprobe, JAMP-9500F are equipped with electron guns for Secondary Electron Microscopy. The first uses thermal cathode, the second is field -emission cold cathode. Please see instrument pages for resolution and parameters. In both instruments the sample is in UHV environment.
Example: Secondary electron imaging of styrene balls in AXIS-165
Example: Field-Emission Secondary Electron Microscopy of Au-particles in JAMP-9500F
