Apple Edges Toward $500B Market Cap (Correct)
(This story has been corrected to reflect that Apple has not surpassed HP in annual revenue and updated with additional market cap data)
CUPERTINO, Calif. ( TheStreet) - Apple (AAPL - Get Report) has surpassed $400 billion in market capitalization, as analysts predict the tech giant hitting the half trillion dollar mark.
Goldman Sachs recently boosted its share price target to $550 per share. Other analysts, such as Barclays Capital and Piper Jaffray have even higher price targets, $555 and $607, respectively. Using Goldman's $550 share price target, Apple's market capitalization would be just over $512 billion.
Apple's growth is clearly accelerating, having reached various market cap milestones over a short period of time.
When Steve Jobs returned to the company, it took nearly 10 years for the company to close a quarter over $100 billion in market cap, doing so in the June 2007 quarter, according to Bloomberg. Due to the recession, Apple did not reach $200 billion in market cap until second quarter 2010, 11 quarters later. It took Apple four quarters to finally stay over $300 billion in market cap, having first reached it in January 2011. It has taken three quarters for the firm to reach $400 billion. Apple may very well reach $500 billion in market cap later this year, if past trends hold. The tech giant's stock hit another all-time high shortly after market open on Thursday, reaching $431.37, surpassing Wednesday's previous all-time high. Apple's market cap was at $400.2 billion on Thursday.Apple surpassed $400 billion in market cap. |

Here's an Oregon Pinot Gris that's blended from the Rattlesnake Road Vineyard way up on the Oregon side of the Columbia River, and from the Vigna Giovanni Vineyard in the Yamhill-Carlton District. It's fermented dry, and aged in neutral French oak barrels for a more rounded and complex, but still fresh and vibrant expression of the varietal. 14.5% ABV.

We had a shitload of gear with Crucial Paradigm and they're generally for the most part pretty rock solid. However you want their Australian daytime support staff if you want anything fixed, monkeys are more intelligent than their overnight staff that we have had the pleasure of dealing with. If they were on fire in the middle of a urinal I would rather piss in the handbasin next to the urinal than put them out.
NetOrigin do KVM in Sydney and Perth, see if you can get a discount for a smaller plan than what they offer http://www.netorigin.com.au/sydney-vps-hosting
I have a VPS with RansomIT and it has been pretty rock solid, and a great price, however it's OpenVZ.

Body recovered from west Cumbria lake identified as missing diver
Last updated at 09:34, Wednesday, 30 January 2013
THE body of a man recovered from Wastwater has been identified as the diver missing since Sunday (27).
The diver has been named by Cumbria police as 39-year-old Carl Morris from Huddersfield, west Yorkshire.
Mr Morris was diving in a group of three in Wastwater on Sunday afternoon but failed to surface after a planned 40 minute dive.
The North West Police Underwater Search Team recovered a body yesterday morning after an extensive search.
Mr Morris' family have been informed and are being supported by police officers.
The underwater search team were deployed last on Sunday night and continued to search until 6.30am on Monday. The search resumed at 11am on Monday but had to be called off at around 3pm.
The other agencies involved in the shore search were stood down at 6.30pm on Sunday due to it being too dark and dangerous to continue in the conditions.
A spokesman from Liverpool Coastguard said they received a phone call at around 3pm reporting a diver missing in the water.
A helicopter from RAF Valley attended the scene, and Cumbria Police, Whitehaven Coastguard and Wasdale Mountain Rescue were also involved in the search.
The alarm was raised by the diver's companion following the dive and emergency services were subsequently alerted.
Stuart Atkinson, duty officer with Liverpool Coastguard, said the search was taking place in an area where communication is difficult.

What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.15 / 5.00 3,691 ViewsSecond flash. I'm gonna see about taking more time on these. I did a little more on this second one. I guess it'll be a gradual thing...I dunno.
Liquid Bread!!
"Liquid Bread" is my favorite line! Nice work. The syncing of the action is a lot cleaner on this one than the first. Good job sir!
It's alright, not brilliant. Voices could be a bit clearer though.
not bad
This is relatively funny, but it would be a lot better if the voices had a bit more expression (they'd be easier to understand too). It would also be a lot better if things actually moved in the frame, because at the moment it looks less like an animation and more like a slideshow.
I've given you an okay score though, because you said you were thinking of spending more time on these and I think with better animation and better quality audio they could be a pretty funny series.
I love it. It's really funny. The only small drawback is the animation, it's not that good. But that doesnt matter. I like the comedy.

Sheltered heroine meets Mr. Danger but can these opposites find love?
Ally Blake's FALLING FOR THE REBEL HEIR is a wonderful romance of opposites. War-Zone correspondent photographer meets quiet, book-loving heroine who craves security. Trespassing, physical attraction and pursuit are one thing, but can they also find true love? Kendall York doesn't like risks, not after a car accident took away her fiance and her light step. Seeing her external scars, feeling her internal scars, Kendall is afraid to truly live. Hudson Bennington III, prep school achiever and famous war-zone correspondent catches a glimpse of what appears to him to be a mermaid when he comes home to his estate and pool to find Kendall has made herself quite at home. Not able to get her out of his mind, he makes her a proposal -- to help him type his memoirs. In such close proximity, will their hearts find a home in each other? Have Kendall and Hud found the one person that can release them from the nightmares of their past or are their ambitions and dreams just too far apart? FALLING FOR THE REBEL HEIR starts off with a bang as the hero catches the heroine trespassing on his property. An initial attraction leads to love as the author opens layer and layer of the richness of her characters. Each encounter between the hero and heroine shed those things which separate them, mainly class differences, careers, and even personality labels. Visual meets verbal as a photographer encounters a literary, Shakespeare-quoting heroine. Both Kendall and Hud find liberation from the scars of the past in sharing, but when ambition and Hud's job come into play, will Hud choose his job or love? Readers of Ally Blake's previous book, BILLIONAIRE ON HER DORRSTEP will enjoy her new romance FALLING FOR THE REBEL HEIR for the look inside her characters which characterizes both romances. FALLING FOR THE REBEL HEIR, however, looks further inside her characters while revealing increasing technical skill in this author's romance writing. Although the hero and heroine do confront each other as well in a verbal fireworks scene, the changes in them come from within. The pairing up of the hero and heroine starts some kind of chemistry, both physical and internal, but here the reader sees the inside evolution come from within each character. FALLING FOR THE REBEL HEIR is Ally Blake romance at its best!

Microsoft Research Introduces Record-Beating MinuteSort Tech 118
from the smart-people-with-cool-ideas dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
"They are pretty much the only one of the large companies that fund this kind of research"
Bullshit alert.
"Their work does lots of good for the world."
For the world? Or for Microsoft?
Citations needed.
Don't all research houses always 'buy' talent by recruiting qualified candidates? Isn't a university the place where people develop skills and then 'sell' themselves to employers?
The big difference is that Microsoft Research is one of the last large corporate research labs focused on pure research. That is, research done for the sake of the research, not to drive product development. Research done at MSR doesn't have to be product driven (it has to be in the general space of software and computers, but that's about the only requirement). MSR is well funded by Microsoft and an integral part of the company's culture.
Sure, IBM, HP, and Intel all have research labs, but their charters have been re-written over the last ten years to focus more on product-centric research. Most research projects at these companies must start with a business plan that shows how the work will be commercialized within 5 years before being approved. This is not the pure research these labs were once known for.
Google, Facebook, Yahoo, and many other internet companies have some interesting projects (self driving cars, for instance), but these tend to be one-off projects and aren't part of a larger, long lived research organization.
Another interesting aspect of MSR is that they encourage all MS developers to take a stint in the organization, not just specially recruited Ph.D.s. It's not uncommon for someone to go from working on a product for a few years, take some time in MSR, then go back to product work.
I've worked directly with many of the research groups mentioned in this post over the last 20 years. Based on my experiences, MSR is truly the last real corporate research group (in the spirit of 20th century PARC/Watson/et al). The others are just part of the product funnels or whims of the founders.
It is much easier to suggest solutions when you know nothing about the problem.

There are a lot of reasons why stocks may make sudden big moves higher. Strong earnings, broker upgrades or exciting product launches can all lead to
Sometimes those three things can combine to form a fourth reason for a stock to jump higher… Hype.
In some cases, stocks get hyped because they have performed well in the past. In other cases, stocks get hyped because Wall Street expects big things in the future. Regardless of the reason behind the hype, once a stock obtains a certain level of hype, it can trade higher on the hype alone.
Hype can also be referred to as "investor euphoria," such as that cited by Netflix CEO Reed Hastings recently. Hastings said his company's stock had been the beneficiary of some investor euphoria recently. Of course Hastings calling attention to the fact that the stock's price seemed to have become disconnected from fundamentals caused it to lose some of that valuation after his comments.
Investors should be weary of jumping into stocks simply because they are being so hyped by Wall Street. In some cases, the hype is merited, but in other cases it sort of takes on a life of its own, and if you are not careful you will find yourself following the herd into over-inflated stocks. This never ends well.
This week we are going to take a closer look at five stocks with a lot of hype and try to determine whether investors should buy into the buzz, or look for better places to invest their money.

text: The Llewellyn Tarot Companion by Anna-Marie Ferguson Resonance Over a century ago, a young boy left Wales and journeyed to America, where he started a small press, now known as Llewellyn Publications. Llewellyn Georges adventurous spirit and W elsh heritage embodies The Llewellyn Tarot, which also celebrates the publishers enduring legacy. From the creator of the popular Legend: The Arthurian Tarot Kit, this lavishly illustrated deck offers universal appeal (based on Rider -Waite) with a Welsh twist. A compelling story unfolds starring Rhiannon as The Empress, Bran the Blessed as The Emperor, The Wild Herdsman as The Horned God (the Devil), Gwydion as The Magician, Llew Llaw Gyffes as the Bringer of Light, and other figures from Welsh mythology. Watercolor imagery beckons us forth into a mystic world of ancient forests, sensuous seascapes, and wondrous waterfalls-gorgeous landscapes brimming with mystery, meaning, and magic. Also included is The Llewellyn Tarot Companion, which features an introduction to the craft and history of tarot, along with Welsh legends infused in this deck. Personal Review: The Llewellyn Tarot Companion by Anna- Marie Ferguson This set inspired me to make my own personal images on some 4x6 index cards. I'm tired of being bombarded with the same old violent and distressing images day after day. I know some other decks have used differ ent ways to say the same thing. Just because RW did it this way or the Marselles (sp) did it that way doesn't mean we can't find other ways to make the same points. I do love love love the book. The meanings are traditional but more up to date and not so much black and white thinking. I think that the people who wrote the first meanings did not think a lot in terms of grey. The reality is sometimes things "are" black and white, but for the most part our days go along without having to think of 10 swords in our backs to make the point that we are at the end of something and need to let go and move on. So, anyway, I just finished my first rough draft of my own personal cards which show no violence and I'm using mostly the book that came with thi s deck for meanings. My favorite card with this deck is the what is usually the Devil card. They call this card "The Wild Herdsman." The picture on the card is the first one I've seen of this card that I can stand to look at. And the meaning is different. The Wild Herdsman of myth was the caretaker of nature and he watched over the animals. I have created a meaning with this card that it is time to take care of my body and my being in general and my environment. They go on to the more traditional meaning if one doesn't take care of the things we are supposed to. This is a good addition to their products and for me, especially the book and thank you so much, people, for creating that wonderful Wild Herdman card. It really jarred my way of thinking about how we just go along with so many of the old stuff and it's centurys later. My life is hard enough. When I pull out my cards, which I do daily I don't need to be bombarded with such distressing energy. One other interesting thing. On the day of Obama's taking the oath of office I did one of my first readings using this deck. The Wild Herdsman came up as the result card. The deck and book were still new to me so at first I felt very distressed. Then I looked at the meaning in the book and smiled as I remembered how important nature and taking care of it was to Obama. It felt so good and I thought that maybe someone will actually do something about the environmental mess we've gotten ourselves into. I pray so. I would definitely recommend this kit for folks who mostly want the traditional RW card look and a wonderful book of meanings.

I've been meaning to write this post for several months now. It came out via tweets, instead, but I think it works better that way. I haven't been able to physically participate in the protests regarding Ferguson, Mike Brown, Eric Garner, Tanesha Anderson, [heartbreaking string of names], but I wanted to at least offer some more tangible support to keep the movement going. I've used these techniques with youth (homeless and not) as well as myself.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Sir Harold Mario Mitchell Acton CBE (5 July 1904 – 27 February 1994) was a British writer, scholar and dilettante perhaps most famous for being wrongly believed to have inspired (in whole) the character of "Anthony Blanche" in Evelyn Waugh's novel Brideshead Revisited (1945). Waugh himself wrote, "The characters in my novels often wrongly identified with Harold Acton were to a great extent drawn from Brian Howard". That being said, we must also note, that in a letter to Lord Baldwin, an elucidating Waugh reveals, "There is an aesthetic bugger who sometimes turns up in my novels under various names – that was 2/3 Brian [Howard] and 1/3 Harold Acton. People think it was all Harold, who is a much sweeter and saner man [than Howard]."[1] It would seem, that Waugh, like many other writers, peopled his novels with composite characters based upon individuals he personally knew and that while neither Howard nor Acton can be totally identified on a one-to-one basis with any particular character, neither can their influence, in large part or small measure, be completely ignored.
Acton was born into a prominent Anglo-Italian-American family at Villa La Pietra, his parents' house one mile outside the walls of Florence, Italy. He claimed that his great-great-grandfather was Commodore Sir John Acton, who was prime minister of Naples under Ferdinand IV, and grandfather of the Roman Catholic historian John Acton. However, the basis of this has been disputed.[2]
Harold was in fact the great-great grandson of Sir John's younger brother Joseph Acton (1 Oct 1737 – 12 Jan 1830) via his eldest son Charles.
His father was the successful art collector and dealer Arthur Acton (1873–1953), the illegitimate son of Eugenio Acton.[3] His mother Hortense Mitchell (1871–1962), was heiress to John J. Mitchell, the President of the Illinois Trust and Savings Bank and also a trustee of the Art Institute of Chicago who was appointed a member of the Federal Advisory Council.[4] Arthur met Hortense in Chicago while helping to design the Italianate features of the bank's new building in 1896.[5][6] The Mitchell fortune allowed Arthur to buy the remarkable Villa La Pietra on the hills of Florence, where Harold lived for much of his life.[7] The only modern furniture in the villa was in the nurseries, and that was disposed of when the children got older (Harold's younger brother William was born in 1906).
His early schooling was at Miss Penrose's private school in Florence. In 1913 his parents sent him to Wixenford Preparatory School near Reading in southern England,[8] where Kenneth Clark was a fellow-pupil. By 1916 submarine attacks on shipping had made the journey to England unsafe and so Harold and his brother were sent in September to Chateau de Lancy, an international school near Geneva. In the autumn of 1917 he went to a 'crammer' at Ashlawn in Kent, to be prepared for Eton, which he entered on 1 May 1918. Among his contemporaries at Eton were Eric Blair (the writer George Orwell), Cyril Connolly, Robert Byron, Alec Douglas-Home, Ian Fleming, Brian Howard, Oliver Messel, Anthony Powell, Henry Yorke (the novelist Henry Green). In his final years at school Harold became a founding member of the Eton Arts Society, and eleven of his poems appeared in The Eton Candle, edited by his friend Brian Howard.
In October 1923 Harold went up to Oxford to read Modern Greats at Christ Church. It was from the balcony of his rooms in Meadow Buildings that he declaimed passages from The Waste Land through a megaphone, an episode recalled in Brideshead Revisited which Waugh gives to the character of Anthony Blanche. While at Oxford he co-founded the avant garde magazine The Oxford Broom, and published his first book of poems, Aquarium (1923). Acton was regarded as the leading figure of his day and would often receive more attention in memoirs of the period than men who were much more successful in later life. For example, the Welsh playwright Emlyn Williams described this encounter with Acton in his autobiography George (1961):
Williams also described Acton's review of The Picture of Dorian Gray in the Oxford student newspaper Cherwell: "a charming boy's book, we would suggest a cheap edition to fit comfortably into the pocket of a school blazer"; and summarised Acton's modernist approach to literature: "But if one finds the words, my dears, there is beau-ty in a black-pudding."[9]
In 1926 he acted as a special constable during the General Strike, apolitical as he was, and took his degree. In October he took an apartment in Paris, at 29 Quai de Bourbon, and had his portrait painted by Pavel Tchelitcheff.[10] Moving between Paris and London in the next few years, Harold sought to find his voice as a writer. In 1927 he began work on a novel, and a third book of poems, Five Saints and an Appendix, came out early the following year. This was followed by a prose fable, Cornelian, in March. In July Harold acted as Best Man at the wedding of Evelyn Waugh to the Honourable Evelyn Gardner. Waugh's Decline and Fall bore a dedication to Harold 'in Homage and Affection', but when Harold's own novel – disastrously entitled Humdrum – appeared in October 1928, it was slated in comparison with Decline and Fall by critics such as Cyril Connolly.
In the later 1920s Harold frequented the London salon of Lady Cunard, where at various times he encountered Ezra Pound, Joseph Duveen and the Irish novelist George Moore. On visits to Florence he cemented his friendship with Norman Douglas, who wrote an introduction to Harold's translation of a lubricious 18th-century memoir of Giangastone de' Medici, The Last of the Medici, privately printed in Florence in 1930 as part of the Lungarno Series. A fourth collection of poems, This Chaos, was published in Paris by Harold's friend Nancy Cunard, though the Giangastone translation pointed in a more promising direction. History was indeed to prove far more congenial to Harold than poetry. His The Last Medici (not to be confused with the earlier book of similar title) was published by Faber in 1932, the first of a series of distinguished contributions to Italian historical studies.[11]
One close observer, Alan Pryce-Jones, felt that life in Florence weighed upon Harold with its triviality, for, like his father, he was a hard worker and a careful scholar. The East was an escape.[12] He took up residence in Peiping, as Beijing was then known, which he found congenial. He studied Chinese language, traditional drama, and poetry. Between his arrival in 1932 and 1939 he published respected translations of Peach Blossom Fan and Modern Chinese Poetry (1936), both in collaboration with Ch'en Shih-hsiang (陳世驤), and Famous Chinese Plays (1937) in collaboration with L.C. Arlington. His novel Peonies and Ponies (1941) is a sharp portrait of expatriate life. His translation, Glue and Lacquer (1941) selected from the 17th century writer, Feng Menglong's Tales to Rouse the World, with a preface by Arthur Waley, the leading scholar-translator and member of the Bloomsbury Group. The Second Sino-Japanese War broke out in 1937, but Acton did not leave until 1939, when he returned to England and joined the Royal Air Force as a liaison officer in the Mediterranean. When the war was over, he returned to Florence. La Pietra had been occupied by German soldiers, but he expeditiously restored it to its proper glory.[13]
Acton's non- historical works include four volumes of poetry, three novels, two novellas, two volumes of short stories, two volumes of autobiography and a memoir of his friend Nancy Mitford, who was his exact contemporary. His historical works include The Last Medici, a study of the later Medici Grand Dukes, and two large volumes on the House of Bourbon, rulers of the Kingdom of Naples in the 18th and earlier 19th century, which together may be said to constitute his magnum opus.
In 1974 he was named a Knight Bachelor (Kt).[14]
His mother, the heiress Hortense Lenore Mitchell, a dominating personality in his life who lived on until the age of 90, did not make life easy for him but he still remained the devoted and admiring son.[15]
The American writer David Plante wrote about Acton's years in China, mentioning that in the Thirties his predilection for young boys caused him to be described in a classified government document as a "scandalous debauchee" and prevented him from serving in China in the intelligence services when war broke out.[16] The author AN Wilson remarked: "To call him homosexual would be to misunderstand the whole essence of his being" and that "He was more asexual than anything else". [17]
When he died he left Villa La Pietra to New York University.[18] In leaving his family's property and collection to New York University, Sir Harold Acton expressed his desire that the estate be used as a meeting place for students, faculty, and guests who may there study, teach, write and do research, and as a center for international programs.[19]
Following his death, DNA testing confirmed the existence of an illegitimate half-sister, whose heirs have gone to court to challenge Acton's $500 million bequest to New York University.[20]
Sir Harold Acton was Catholic.[21][22] His cultural and historical commitment to the Church remained unchanged throughout his life. Standing first on a petition submitted to Rome in 1971 by the British cultural élite requesting that the traditional Latin rite of the Mass not be abrogated in England was the name of Harold Acton.[23] Acton was buried beside his parents and brother in the Roman Catholic section of the Cimitero Evangelico degli Allori in the southern suburb of Florence, Galluzzo (Italy).

Why They Call Them "Axes" | Not Dead Yet | The Next Big Thing | Solyndra in Perspective | Woe Is Us | Raw-Milk Menace | Up to Speed
Since pandas and elephants get the bulk of their nutrients from woody plants, their excrement could provide the key to cheap and effective biofuel. The feces of the two species contain the same gut bacteria that efficiently convert lignocellulose--the woody stuff in plants--to sugars. Researchers at Mississippi State University (working with pandas) and at the Dutch technology company DSM (working with elephants) say that such bacteria could be key to producing cellulosic ethanol from biomass like wood chips, switchgrass, and corn stover.
Putrefying ponds of hog excrement are one of the nation's fastest-growing sources of methane, a greenhouse gas 21 times more potent than carbon dioxide. Now Duke University and Duke Energy have teamed up to harness pig-poop power, using the methane from a 9,000-head hog farm in North Carolina to run an electrical turbine. The project, which produces enough electricity to power 35 homes, has won support from Google, which is searching for ways to offset the carbon footprint of its energy-hogging data centers.
Dried flakes of human waste fuel Thames Water, Britain's largest water and sewage company. The flakes, which resemble instant-coffee granules, are made from dehydrated sludge, the fecal goo left behind after wastewater is treated. Once dry and powdery, the stuff can be burned, providing 16 percent of the utility's energy and reducing its carbon footprint by 550 tons a year.—Dashka Slater

Doo.Ri Fall 2012
>> Sophisticated to the max; that's how Doo.Ri is doing it for Fall 2012. Gorgeous draping, moody hues, wool pants, and mixed-knit turtlenecks are streamlined and chic. Hemlines are demure; silhouettes are loose with bouts of airy asymmetry. Even leather pants are less tough and more ladylike. Finishing off the polished looks are slick ponytails accentuated with beautiful black ribbon headbands.

Gopher Purge or Mole Plant contains a latex like milky sap that is found in the roots, leaves and flowers. Poinsettias are members of the same genus and contain the same kind of sticky sap which can cause skin irritation in sensitive people. This caustic substance is not a repellant but a contact irritant. The varmint must chew the roots to become ill or die. In order to protect plants from gophers or moles, a thick stand of Euphorbia planted in the gopher's main tunnel is necessary. And, because it dies every two years, it is necessary to be vigilant and replant or your precious protected plant becomes exposed. |
Fortunately, Gopher Purge (sometimes called Gopher Spurge) reseeds readily. Sprouting in the early spring, small plants can be easily transplanted from the ground to the desired location. Or, you can leave it alone and let it naturalize itself. |
These unusual flower buds of Gopher Purge will eventually open and set seeds. If you do want seedlings, you may leave the pods to fall or collect them when they have turned brown. Gopher Guards are preformed cages that are also very useful in the fight against gophers. |

Zelda and Sheik are separate Smash Bros. characters due to 3DS limitations
I still think that making the 2 versions identical (except for some stages) is a mistake. This way those who bought it on the 3DS have no reason to get it on the Wii U. Still the biggest mistake was to relaease the 3DS version first instead of the Wii U to push the home system. That leads me to 2 reasons:
1 - they needed to get money back ASAP;
2- Wii U dosen't need such a strong effort from Nintendo to regain position / or they don't believe SSB is the game that could push console out from the stores. Reply 0 -

Bellini Restaurant Review: Comfy banquettes, mirrors, marble, and chamois-toned walls create a cozy setting for Bellini's somewhat Frenchified Italian fare. Diaphanous slices of prosciutto di Parma lead into such savory dishes such as marinated tuna arugula salad with flavoring of lemon, tagliatelles flambées with a round of parmesan, porcini mushroom risotto, or a veal piccata. The cellar harbors appealing wines from Friulia, Tuscany, and the Veneto. |

Wanted to close this thread out...I found the jacket at the Burton Burlington Flagship store. I e-mailed Burton asking whether they could find one for me. It took a couple days, but they tracked down two for me, both at the Burlington store. I called there and one of the reps, Chuck Hughson, hooked me up. He went way out of his way to complete the order and get it shipped to me via USPS instead of FedEx, which is their usual shipping method.
All-in-all, a good news story all the way around...again, I appreciate all the input you guys provided. |
