Apple, Akamai, Sensata Technologies: Tech Winners & Losers
Updated with closing prices.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Apple (AAPL - Get Report) shares ticked lower by 0.30% to $539.79 as the rumor mill continues to spin about an Apple-branded a television set.
Multiple reports cited Apple speaking with its Asian component suppliers, and said that the tech giant's working on several designs of the next-gen television set.
Apple's manufacturing partner, Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd. is said to have been working with Sharp on the project, but nothing official has yet been announced.
Sensata Technologies (ST - Get Report) shares fell 2.61% to $29.66 as the sensors and controls company priced its secondary offering, selling 10 million shares at $29.95. Sensata is not going to receive any of the proceeds from the offering, outside of proceeds from certain selling shareholders. The offering is expected to close on Dec. 17, 2012. Morgan Stanley and Barclays are acting as the joint book-runners on the offering.
Akamai Technologies (AKAM - Get Report) shares rose 1.92% to $40.36 as Goldman Sachs resumed coverage on the name, with a "neutral" rating and a $44 price target. Akamai recently signed a deal with AT&T (T) for the telecom giant to start reselling Akamai's content delivery network (CDN) services. The press release on the deal said the two companies will initially focus their efforts on the North American market, but hope to expand globally within the next 12 months. Closing Prices: Apple dips $2.39 (0.44%) to close at $539.00. Akamai Technologies adds 37 cents (0.93%) to $39.97. Sensata Technologies loses 46 cents (1.51%) to close at $29.99. -- Written by Chris Ciaccia in New York >Contact by Email. Follow @Commodity_Bull

The first thing is, I don't have a family. I have people whom I love, who love me, but there is no binding of any family ties. Nobody belongs to me, neither do I belong to anybody. Everybody here has his own individuality, totally pure, without any kind of imprisonment in the name of love, in the name of religion, in the name of nation, in the name of race - beautiful names but only hiding ugly prisons.
It is good that you have been afraid all your life, "not to be part of it, not to belong, not to be in your family." I don't have any family. And you should remember not to belong to any family at all.
My vision of a real humanity is of pure individuals - relating to each other but not tied in any relationship; loving to each other but not being possessive of each other; sharing with each other all their joys and all their blessings, but never even in their dreams thinking of dominating, thinking of enslaving the other person.a world consisting not of families, not of nations, not of races, but only of individuals.
Only a world where families have disappeared and nations have died and races are no longer existent can have beauty, and can have immense possibilities for human growth. Otherwise all your relationships are destructive, because they are all possessive - your love is followed by your jealousy; your love is full of suspicion, mistrust. Everybody is trying to keep the other remaining within his control. It is a very strange situation where everybody is a prisoner and everybody is a jailer too. You are the jailer, you are the jail, you are the jailed, and you are trying to manage all three functions simultaneously. Certainly your life has become a mess!
At least here you need not be afraid. It is not Italy, and it is not a Mafia. Mafia simply means "the family." Here, everybody is an individual - loved, respected, accepted as he is. Nobody is expecting him to be somebody else; no ideals are provided for you to imitate, no discipline is given to you so that you become a robot, a mechanical personality, repeating actions, words and never meaning really..
You say to people, "I love you," but you have never thought exactly.do you really mean it? Your words have become so phony, your actions have become so false, your faces have become masks. You have completely lost your originality.
My effort here is to help you to discover your original face. And that is the greatest thing that can happen to any human being, to know his original face, because that is the face of God.
Osho,There is a word that has often touched me deeply. By just remembering it from time to time it feels as if it can heal wounds, and it brings stillness and contentment. This word is suchness. Would you like to talk about suchness?

Mamma mia! The drama hasn't stopped for the Jersey Shore troublemakers since they touched their overly buffed and tanned bodies down in Italy.
Was Florence Mayor Matteo Renzi right when he predicted that Snooki, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, JWoww and the rest of the gang would be nothing but a headache for the city? He even laid down the law with a list of rules for the obnoxious group, banning them from filming in many historic buildings or while drinking in public.
But that hasn't stopped the crew from experiencing a series of mishaps—permit issues, a Ronnie Ortiz-Magro-Situation smackdown, Snooki's car crash and JWoww's wrist twist—that has us thinking maybe this season is actually...well, cursed.
Let us break our theory down...
MORE: Big problems before the cast even arrived on the other shore
The Jersey Shore stars always bring the drama, but this is ridiculous. Here's everything that's gone wrong starting before the guidos and guidettes even reached the homeland:
• Salary Fights: In early April, the fist pumpers refused to sign on the dotted line for MTV until the last minute due to—what else?—money issues. A source had told E! News at the time that the cast was working out the "fine details" and wanted to make the season in Italy work. The source said the group was also upset that the length of their stay hadn't been determined and that they hadn't even been assigned a house when they were being asked to sign. They all ended up signing at the eleventh hour before leaving for the motherland.
• Locals Hating on Them: Seems the real Italians didn't want any part of the Shore-goers visiting their country. The cast hasn't been exactly embraced by the locals, and the bitterness began before the GTLers even landed, with them being labeled the "worst stereotypes of Italians" and the reason America deserves a terrorist attack. Whoa. Bit harsh, Italy?
• Permit Problems: The cast were set to head to Florence on April 18 when they were first grounded due to permit problems and struggles to secure locations that would allow the group to film inside. After a house was finally found for the cast, their trip was delayed again because of an Italian presidential visit to Florence. They finally touched down in mid-May.
• Ronnie-Situation Brawl: The Sitch needed medical attention a few weeks back after Ronnie reportedly kicked his muscled ass in a brawl over his on-again, off-again girlfriend Sammi Giancola. MTV confirmed that the Sitch did get treated for injuries, but blamed his cuts and bruises on an "accidental injury in the house." Mmm- hmmm. That same day, Ronnie was walking around town with some seriously shredded knuckles.
• Snooki's Car Crash: The Snookster and costar Deena Cortese were involved in a major fender-bender while filming last week. No one was injured when the pint-size reality wreck smashed into the back of a traffic patrol car, trapping it between a police car and a highway wall, but Snooki's license was confiscated after being hauled to the central police station in Florence to fill out paperwork.
• JWoww's Wrist Incident: The voluptuous Jenni Farley was the latest castmember spotted with some banged-up body parts, reportedly spending an afternoon in a local emergency room after injuring herself while working at a local pizza joint.
• Mayor's Rules: When Mayor Renzi learned the cast would be fist pumping their way toward him, he quickly laid down the law for the rowdy bunch, ruling that they would not be permitted to flaunt Florence as a drinking or partying town. He banned them from drinking in public, filming inside historical spots and wanted to feature the country's good food and rich culture instead of turning into the butt of a Jersey Shore joke. Looks like his efforts so far have not succeeded.
• Papa Situation's Beef: With The Sitch stuck in Italy, his father launched a son-bashing tour back home in the U.S., creating a personal website featuring a series of videos "calling Mike on his s--t." Sr. Sitch rambles on about his son's "hard-core partying, drugs, sex and crime elements," then tears into the rest of the cast, calling Snooki a "4-foot-11 piece of s--t." The Situation fought back with a lawsuit filed in a Miami court, warning his father to zip it.
• Pizza Wars: While the cast slave away at the O'Vesuvio Pizzeria, a rival pizza place in Florence has started a major beef with the pie hawkers. Nearby Munaciello Pizzeria has put up a sign in their window reading "Tamarri Americans? Jersey Shore, no thank you. Only REAL Italian pizza." It's translates loosely to "Hey, redneck Americans, get lost."
• That's Not Amore: Snooki and her boyfriend of eight months, Jionni LaValle, parted ways right after LaValle's visit to Florence over the weekend, reports Life & Style. Apparently, the duo broke up after a huge blowout about an incident at a club. Sounds about right.

As announced last Thursday, Snøhetta has won the commission for the expansion of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. This is the most significant commission in the cultural arena after the crash of 2008, and promises to provide a major addition to this country's stock of cultural monuments. The selection also marks the coming of age of a new generation of architects specializing in this field, replacing the list headlined by the likes of Piano, Gehry, Koolhaas, and Herzog & de Meuron that has dominated competitions and selection processes for the last decade.
ICA Boston Fifth Floor Gallery
ICA Boston
Truth be told, I would have preferred the commission to go to Diller, Scofidio, & Refro, the New York-based firm that I believe combines critical analysis, a firm grasp of both technology and programming, and the ability to create beautiful spaces and forms, better than any other practice of that generation. Having said that, Snøhetta is not at all bad. Their Oslo Opera House is a delight, at least from the front. It's a civic iceberg rising out of the city's fjord, providing public spaces sloping up its mass, and opening up into a glorious wood cocoon where the concerts take place. Here and elsewhere, this multi-national collective has proven its ability to create wonderful public and exhibition spaces, and its work is as varied as it is accomplished.
I also would not have minded the commission going to David Adjaye, whose designs are more minimalist in their appearance than that of either of Diller, Scofidio, & Renfro or Snøhetta, but who is as conceptually sharp as either one of them—something he proved in the Denver Contemporary Art Center Building, finished two years ago. The only one of SFMOMA's final four that I did not think worthy was Norman Foster, the Lord of High Tech whose office has grown into such a monster that it only occasionally extrudes out something other than rote curtain wall.It would have been nice if talented local designers such as Stanley Saitowitz or Kuth/Ranieri had been in the mix, but San Francisco, like most non-core cities, has little respect for its own talent. What is most important to me is that the choice represents a focus on architects who have both conceptual and formal chops: They know what they want to do, and they know how to do it beautifully. Critics often deride the focus on theory that they see as having hijacked both the field and the major architecture schools in the last few decades, but I would argue that the refusal to accept programs, sites, and standard building practices as given, and the questioning of them through form, has given architects a better understanding of why they should make buildings—and most importantly, has provided them with tools for assembling such structures that go beyond the traditional components, which all too often result in closed and empty boxes.
Snøhetta will need all its skills on this site. The project is both an addition to a building designed by Mario Botta in 1992, which is symmetrical and complete onto itself, and a structure that must address a street around the corner. It must logically elaborate the existing spaces, respect the context, and create a new environment for the Fisher Collection, the large assembly of post-war art SFMOMA inherited last year. The museum did not ask the finalists for designs, choosing them instead on the basis of past work and their attitude. Of course, as they say in financial documents, previous performance is not an indicator of future returns. But, just as we hope that the ability to create wealth out of thin air in the past will continue in the future, so I hope that Snohetta will again be able to wrest great space out of a site that is difficult, conceptually as well as physically.I also hope that other institutions will look at SFMOMA's list and realize that the likes of Diller, Scofidio, & Renfro, David Adjaye, and the younger firms that are lining up behind them are not only capable of creating great buildings, but will help us to redefine the role of architecture as a necessary part of the opening and improving of our urban, suburban, and exurban landscapes.
SNO-JOB The SFMOMA claims "We are a nonprofit organization of 353 individuals dedicated to the idea that art and museums can transform lives. By embracing the challenge of the new and unexpected, we hope to encourage fresh ways of seeing, thinking, and engaging with the world." Why is it then that when SFMOMA along with other U.S. art museums lately have formed a building committee, chosen from a very short list of "name" architects and then picked the most buzz worthy and expensive architectural firms ? With so much architectural talent and excellence going begging in the United States,and in particular California and given the unemployment rate among U.S. architects hovering at between 10% to 40% in the U.S. (depending on the city) why is it necessary to hire a firm from Norway? Isn't hiring an architect when they have several museum commissions a bit late in the game and at the top of the market? If every city has their Adjaye/Zumthor/Koolhaas/Snøhetta/Piano building won't it be difficult to claim uniqueness from any other institution? A cultural consumer is already hard pressed to differentiate one museum from another given how many are done by a mere handful of well know architects. From a marketing standpoint this is unsustainable. From an architectural standpoint it is a tragedy. This building project, if it proceeds as planned, will stand as a monument to the current media obsessed age which is ignoring a generation of new, qualified, diverse, and excellent, U.S. architects. Lost is support and nurture of an organic and vital architectural scene in the long term in the attempt to generate buzz in the short term. One looks to the boards of any city's art institutions to be the patrons of all the creative arts each time they have the opportunity. It is dismaying that the boards of art institutions in U.S. cities do not support their own architects and include them in the creation of cultural buildings.

Help, I forgot my username and/or password
Peter Thursday, 9 May 2013 5:59 PM - Canada- DOH Airport is small but the egates work and you can go in and out within few minutes (except the long bus rides from the terminal to the aircraft). Dubai Airport is stressful and highly unpleasant. Starting from the casino lights flashing at the entrance, hurting your eyes if you don?t close them, the rude and abusive police at the emigration area, egates don?t work, the duty free area is an insane busy nightmare hub of millions of tired and mad people.
- DOH Airport has taxis waiting; Dubai has 100?s of passengers waiting for a taxi and security guard being rude and treating people like disrespectfully to vent their power trips (it happened last night).
PKK Friday, 10 May 2013 12:29 PM - GermanyDOHA airport consists of a separate arrival terminal, but then a separate departure building for qatar airways, another departure building for other carriers and another building for business/first class qatar airways. I do not know any airport with this interesting configuration. After you find out where you need to be, then it starts ( I checked in online), at the terminal, nobody was present at the drop-off desks, nobody was available at the premium card desks, yes one long queue at the economy terminal. Qatari ladies with their porter jumping the queue.... Then after waiting 30 minutes at the passport check, then a free sight seeing tour round the terminal that takes 15 minutes to reach the aircraft. On my return trip, yes there was a taxi at Doha Airport, but the driver had no clue where to go and only put on the meter after I asked him to
Peter Thursday, 9 May 2013 5:45 PM - CanadaQA is micromanaged by a guy who things he can personally control the life of every single individual who works for the airline. In spite of that, I personally think that their service on board is generally better than Emirates:
- QA food is close to real food, Emirates? is precast, pre-packed;
- QA offers a menu with more than one choice, Emirates throes at you whatever they have, without bothering to ask and inform you (it happened to me last night on a Emirates flight);
- QA crew are generally polite and professional, Emirates? depends on their personality and mood, some unprepared for the job (it happened last night on the Emirates flight, when asked for a glass of water, the answer was ?wait, later?, it never came. When I complained to the Cabin Senior, again he wasn?t trained to handle the complaint, all he said, thank you for you feedback ;
Quantum Mechanics Thursday, 9 May 2013 2:30 PM - QatarWhat's the fuss is all about? We all worked diligently here and we have been fully paid for it in good faith. Nobody owes anyone anything. It's all business, and not a favor at all.
And I love Qatar for the serenity of the place and its people.
Fatima Ahmed Thursday, 9 May 2013 10:30 AM - PERSIAN Gulf@Qatari-Qatar should be proud of its world class education. After all, no Qatari private company wants to hire Qataris not even Qatar Airways where less than 2% of the work force consists of Qataris (Source: Qatar Statistics Authority). The reason is because of the work ethic of the Qataris as they are very dedicated and loyal to their iphones and blackberries. Qatar was forced to raise the salary of its public servants (the occupation of most Qataris as they aren't competent) simply because of the fear of the Arab Spring. I hope Qatar makes these kind of achievements which of course makes us proud as Qatar gears towards the Stone Age. Don't underestimate our knowledge our your country, we all know that by 1995, Qatar was in debt or virtually bankrupt.
Mohamed Tuesday, 7 May 2013 11:36 PM - UAEwell in that case " IF YOU CAN'T BEAT THEM, JOIN THEM "
Evgeny Tuesday, 7 May 2013 11:26 PM - UAEBeing a very seasoned traveller i would prefer Emirates to any other airline in the world, both economy and business and first classes. I am now in Kuala Lumpur having flown business on Emirates this morning and this was one of the best airline experiences i have ever had - and it's every time like that with Emirates. Thank you Emirates for doing such a great job.
Jet Blast Tuesday, 7 May 2013 12:07 PM - UKmemories are short! Both CEO's used to work or had close associations with Gulf Air which 4 masters! Do they feel that operating two airlines with dual hubs in close proximity will be any easier than it was for GF? Also the political expediency of whom reports to whom as the allocation of revenues will be an issue as it was in GF !
Qatari Tuesday, 7 May 2013 10:57 AM - Qatar@TheAvenger. Another Qatari hater who lives among us, gets payed by us, who can't get over the fact that his country is no way near the success of Qatar and that it will never be. The only relief he can get is online by damaging the reputation of the people who feed his kids and family, such a nice way for someone who sees himself more civilized than other. You are trying to link everything bad in your life to the Qataris, how about you take another look at your country and your people that didn't provide a well paid job for you.
tony Thursday, 9 May 2013 11:23 AM - germany@Qatari: but why do you give such salaries to expats? Is it because if you didn't, they would not come to your desert? So don't make it sound like you are doing them a favor by paying them what you pay them, because if you didn't they would not come here in the first place.
Seriously, if you (P)GCC Arabs want the expats out of your country, why don't you tell your leaders? I am sure they will listen to the voice of reason :-)The Avenger Wednesday, 8 May 2013 8:38 PM - Qatar@ Qatari , i left my country as my job dictates where i go and i choose to go with that or not .
Maybe if the nationals of your country chose to travel and explore the world and interact with other cultures and nationalities then you wouldn't have such a short term blinkered view .
Please use Emirates though , their planes leave on time !Qatari Wednesday, 8 May 2013 10:48 AM - Qatar@TheAvenger, Your job doesn't bring you here, the well paid Qatari salary brings you here. If you like your country that much then why did you leave in the first place. I guess you realized that you cannot eat human rights, engineering, art etc ..
My country is only grateful to God for the natural resources we have. Your people are the ones who came here first begging for our oil in the first place.The Avenger Tuesday, 7 May 2013 11:19 PM - Qatar@Qatari , getting defensive is par for the course for you and many others . Please spare us the old age sentiment that we should be grateful to you and your country for everything we have . I'm here because my job brings me here as your country does not have the people skills to do it itself , quite ironic don't you think and when it's finished i shall move on to the next project and there will be no shedding of tears .
It is you and your country that should be grateful to us for the services and engineering skills that we provide . Qatar is just another country in a long line that i have worked over 30 years in my chosen industry . I along with others don't owe you nothing and i'm sure my country with it's long history and feats in human rights , engineering , art , invention , commerce , politics , education and protecting the world which includes you are shaking in their boots .
One day my friend you'll realise that you cannot eat 500 Riyal notes .
Adam Tuesday, 7 May 2013 10:55 AM - SingaporeAmusing to read comments from Emirates customers badmouthing Qatar Airways - an airline that is regularly independently awarded for its service and quality.
Doubly amusing to read them blindly criticising Qatar's punctuality (which in actuality is largely dictated by the appallingly designed - yet still more efficient in passenger processing than DXB T3 - Doha Airport) when Emirates isn't even one the word's top 20 most punctual airlines.
Triply amusing to read crowing about the fairly terrible Doha Airport by anyone who regularly uses DXB T3, which is to my mind the worst designed modern airport in the world.
marwan Wednesday, 8 May 2013 12:09 PM - uaeur so full of hate adam agaiest dubai and it show from ur comments but let me tell u that were number2 and soon well be number 1 in the world and if u dont like it dont fly through it
The Avenger Monday, 6 May 2013 9:40 PM - QatarQR is overpriced and it's service is nothing short of disgraceful . Flights never leave on time as they're always waiting for locals who treat the airline like their personal taxi service .
Couple this with poorly trained and inadequate staff and an airport that resembles a bus shelter and you have yourself a rather mediocre airline .
Qatar Airways is the worlds 5 star airline but only in their own minds . A poor airline that mirrors everything Qatari .
It promises a lot but delivers very little !

Roger Goodell Suggests Raiders Could Share Levi's Stadium
Posted By Sports Talk Florida Rumors On July 18, 2014 @ 9:29 AM In News and Rumors,NFL | No Comments
The San Francisco 49ers officially introduced Levi's Stadium Thursday and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, who was at the ceremony, suggested that the Raiders could share Levi's Stadium.
"They have to make that determination, whether they're in a new stadium in Oakland or whether they feel that it's best to join this stadium," Goodell said, according to the Bay Area Sports Guy [2]. "We're working on that, and that's one of the decisions they'll have to make."
But Raiders owner Mark Davis isn't interested. Earlier in February said that if progress isn't made for a new home the team could relocate altogether.
"I don't want to call it a last-ditch effort, but it does seem to be the last chance that Oakland is going to get," Davis told the San Francisco Chronicle [3]. "We can't continue to play in that stadium (which they share with the Oakland A's), with the baseball field and all of that stuff."

US couple denied request to leave Qatar in child death case
DOHA (AFP) - A US couple in Qatar accused of killing their adopted child to harvest her organs said on Wednesday they feel "kidnapped" by the Gulf emirate, with no verdict expected until late March.
Matthew and Grace Huang, Americans of Asian origin, were arrested in January 2013 after the death of their adopted daughter Gloria, an eight-year-old girl from Ghana, and accused of causing her death in order to sell her organs.
The couple's supporters describe them as a loving family and insist the girl died of an eating disorder caused by the "extreme poverty" she suffered at a young age in the West African country.
The couple were released in November pending trial, but on Wednesday the court denied their request to leave the country to join their other two adopted children in the United States, and said a verdict would be announced March 27, according to a judicial source.

Why isn't Mr. Maggi in jail yet? That, my friends, is the only relevant question.
By developing methods of building houses with materials other than wood, is how we will slow down the deforesting of Amazonia. At the heart of the problem are American and Asian cultures. It is their greed for wood for the housing industry that will cause all land to be barren eventually. And declaring the Brazilian Rain Forests international territory opens up an endless argument on whether oil, gold, water reserves are also up for grabs by other nations.
The bigger(s) wood companies of Amazonia are american and japonese. Yes we need stop the deforestation, creating areas of perennial preservation of the forest, we need keep the ranch farmers away. The problem of Amazonia is simple, it is the perennial problem of Brazil the impunity. Reforestation programs are already in action, becoming model for all wood companies, and keeping a satisfactory profit. There are good solutions, we brazilians will find them ourselve. We are alredy on the right way.
And regarding the internationalisation of the rainforests, that is naive if not stupid and offensive. Claiming that the rainforest should be an international resource is no different than claiming that money should be international - every country needs it -, and that is never an issue. Of course, no one would say that the wealth a country stuggled to accumulate should be given away; but in the same way, the main reason the Amazon is proportionally so important to the world is because other forests around the globe everywhere else have been brought down years ago.
I'd have to check the numbers, but if I'm not mistaken the Amazon represented less than 10% of the world's forests 200 years ago, and now it represents more than 50%. Why? It hasn't grown - but other forests have been cut down, some completely, so now the Amazon is proportionally much bigger. Trying to internationalise it does not mean protecting it from countries that might not know how to manage it; it means putting it in the hands of those that surely don't.
There was no "change of heart" there. The article focuses only on the Amazon forest, but does not mention that a great portion of Mato Grosso is another ecosystem, Pantanal, rich in biodiversity and water resources, but which is being more and more ruined by Mr. Maggi's policies. His government and disrespect for national environmental laws allow for farmers to take all that land and suck it dry (literally).
As for the forest, Maggi's businesses are already crossing the limits of the law all the time. So what he proposes is that he and his family is paid to fulfill the law.
By the way, paying a wealthy businessman like Maggi is very different from paying locals not to damage the forest. The former is paying a thief not to steal. The latter means giving people a means of subsistence, so they can leave the environment around them untouched. Of course, there are other ways to live off the forest without damaging it, as many (not only indigenous) people in the Amazon have done for ages - it is a matter of teaching those who don't know how to do it.
A little bit off the point but here it goes; I voted for Obama, initially I admit, b/c Hillary lost but as time passes I am feeling prouder and prouder of our president, he seems to be doing or trying to do lots of actions most sensible person would consider the right course of action to take so, the next big thing should be, in my opinion the worldwide legalization of marijuana for consumers to just be able to walk into a pharmacy a buy a licensed, controlled product if they so wish. As for the control of the rain forests I think it's gonna come down to peasants and poor people worldwide just simply being paid to leave the forests alone rather than having the financial incentive to cut them down for whatever purpose.
I think the rain forests are a global, not national resource. No one country should have the right to destroy the world's climatic stabilisers. Nor do I see why we should bribe them to refrain from doing what is criminally irresponsible. It's a bit like paying a thief not to steal.
The whole issue of national sovereignty needs to be rethought where the rain forests are concerned, and all the governments concerned - including the Congo and Indonesia, given an ultimatum to stop the destruction or lose control of the resource. If we have to spend money, let's spend it on UN forces to control these areas if need be.
Andy wrote:
"If the only way to make deforestation economically uninteresting is to pay good money for developing countries to keep their forests standing, I guess it will be one more mechanism to boost the transfer of wealth from the developed world to us."
While they do as they like with their forests?
I just think it has to be better controlled, brazilian people has potential to generate wealth w/o rent or destroying our forests.
To King Africa: I agree w/ you that Brazil should plant more trees rather than cutting them down; Invest in condom yes, more to control the transmission of diseases than as a mean of birth control since Brazil doesn't really have a bad problem of overpopulation since it's a country almost the same size as the Continental USA w/ a population just slightly over half that of the US, devalue the Real will make the salaried classes suffer, make imports more expensive thus negatively affecting competition, apply for IMF/World Bank loans is dangerous and creates hard to pay debt and puts the country in a difficult situation, Issue bilions of dollars in Bonds for what, don't you know about corrution levels in Brazil? A lot of the money would disappear or be misused, privatize most everything, yes, shut down Embraer, NO, one of Brazil's few world class companies and allow only rich countries such as the US and Britain to produce high tech goods I think is also a terrible idea that no sensible person would agree with since any well run country is trying to aggregate as much value as possible to their exports for ex. try to produce some kind of Industrialized Coffee for export, Industrialized fruits, etc.
Yeah, I too can attest to the destruction pure and simple as I have seen w/ my own eyes huge torched fields totally devoid of any kind of life where a healthy rain forest once stood and I thing it's got to be one the stupidest and least excusable acts of human kind, so if all those who can afford have to pay a few pennies more for some products to subsidize the maintenance of healthy rain forests worldwide then I say lets get on with it ASAP since there's very limited time to do this!
Brazil should plant more trees, stop ctiing them down, invest in more condoms to control overpopulation, get rid of the catholic church, lower their trade barriers to allow cheap foregn ggods, devalue the Real, apply for massive loans from the IMF the world bank, and issue billions of dollars in Bonds, then privatize everything and allow foreign firms to export their earnings back home, cut costs in education and healthcare, allow US pharmaceudicals to charge world market prices for their drugs, close down Embraer, privatize trees as they provide air and charge market prices, and just concentrate on growing coffee, exporting telefavelas, and sugar cane. Let Britain and the US export arms, cars, and anything else technological as they can do it better.
If the only way to make deforestation economically uninteresting is to pay good money for developing countries to keep their forests standing, I guess it will be one more mechanism to boost the transfer of wealth from the developed world to us. This redistribution process is already on course since the beginning of the economic crisis. If this kind of initiative really gets implemented, it will mean protecting the environment while promoting fairest wealth distribution worldwide.
After all, every single country in the G8 has swept their forests way in the last couple of centuries, and the economic incentives that made them do it are still around. Brazil should take drastic measures against deforestation simply because today we all know things that we did not know seventy years ago. But since it appears that people are still acting accordingly to economic incentives rather than their own conscience, it may be not only the best, but also the only way.
As long as deforestation continues the economy will continue to go down the tubes, and poverty will get worse.
It sure have to be better controlled by the State, we have technology to do so, its a matter of good will of our authorities.
The deforastation of the Amazon forest in Brazil is, I consider, the catastrophe of the century. I was few years ago at the deforastation zone. Looks like Mad Max film. A big forest coming down in extesive ares, for some cattle and soy to be produced. A poor deal. Pity. Hope international pressure grows.

I was thinking of one of these for when I'm in gym shorts or the like. What type of guns carry well in these? I have a S&W 640 and 340,would the 640 carry well in one of these and do they fit the gun snugly enough to ensure it doesn't come out?
Snub nose revolvers,the original concealed carry guns.
Gravity is the only retention in a smart carry. It depends on the what pants you are wearing over it as to how well it stays put. Anything with a belt or a decent waistband will keep it firmly in place. I would not do a cart wheel using it with my sweatpants. Also, I don't like to run with it for a different reason, it can slap around a little.
Not familiar with the S&W 640, but depending upon your body shape and how high you wear your pants (at the waist line or down low on the hips) most common guns can be carried just fine. As phreddy pointed out, a belt or relatively tight, firm pants will keep the gun holstered with most any activity, but in floppy pants like gym shorts or sweat pants the gun can bounce around when running, or might even come out in strenuous activity.
I'd say it's well worth trying one out and seeing how it works for you.
In the heat of the moment, what matters is what your body knows -- not what your mind knows.
Lots of users here in Florida. My 442 fits fine.
I carry a Kimber Pro Carry II in mine and have carried bigger guns that that. I love mine and I have never had an issue with retention. Its well made and holds quite a bit of weight.
My other Kahr is a Kimber.
I have one and it works fine for light to medium physical activity in sweats... if you are going to run with it or do jumping jacks you can slide it over a bit so it is resting more against your thigh than those more sensitive areas. Of course, it works better for a little mouse gun than a full size 1911...
"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
You are not paranoid if They are actually out to get you, however, They probably are not and you probably are.
I have a Smart Carry, and it fits to a T. When I'm wearing jeans, and out and about, it's GREAT!! But if you are a bit overweight as I am, and sitting down, I find it difficult to "access" the 642, with much difficulty, but that's not the fault of the holster. I'm sure if I got rid of about 20# it would help the situation. But as the other posters have indicated, it's a great investment, and well worth the $$$.
In dress clothes (suits or slacks) the Smart Carry is the way to go. I carry my S&W342, Glock 26 and Kel-Tec P3AT in the same model SC.
I've carried a Glock 19 and a Glock 26 in mine - the Smartcarry is not limited to mouse guns. Loose fitting sweats should be no issue. Just remember that the straps go around your hips, not your waist.
I find it more comfortable to wear mine at 11 o'clock, with the bottom of the grip centered on the zipper line. This also eliminates any potential slapping if you're going to get involved in strenuous physical activity. Works great with pleated pants, but also works with flat front as well.
Go ahead and try it - if you don't like it you can get a refund (minus the shipping).
PS - Draw is quicker (and you look neater) if you tuck your shirt in (behind the holster) - though that might look a bit weird in sweats!
The more good folks carry guns, the fewer shots the crazies can get off.

My 340pd is the perfect smartcarry gun.
Except for the recoil.
Miyamoto Musashi, The Book of Five RingsYou should not have any special fondness for a particular weapon, or anything else, for that matter
I have one and really did not like it. It made me feel a little too crowded in certain areas. I do understand that some people do like them though.
buy one buy one buy one!!! They fit the need of deep carry or carry with 'active' clothes on like running shorts, running pants etc. I use one often for that purpose. the holster is worth the money. I even used it one time while standing up in a wedding...I spun it to my strong side and tucked my tux in...worked great...putting a jframe, kahr, or anything that use,and you forget it is there....when I carry my kimber UCII, the beavertail grip safety does poke into my stomach when sitting.
--people ask why I carry, and I show them this picture. I think it says it all.--

I've got one. I like it. I bought a medium-sized one as I initially carried a Commander length 1911 in it. Now the Sig P220 Carry fits in it just the same. Actually, the Sig feels better because of no beavertail or cocked hammer digging into my gut.
For me it can only be worn with loose-fitting pants such as pleated dress pants, carpenter jeans, cargo pants/shorts, or sweatpants. Flat front slacks or straight leg jeans are a no go. YMMV.
I can also carry the SP-101 in it by using a safety pin to shorten the holster length and get proper carry height for the smaller gun.
As I see it, the SmartCarry is trade-off of accessibility for conceal-ability. It is a great solution when you can not carry OWB or IWB in a more quickly accessible holster.
I carry either a S&W 637 or Kahr P9 in my small size SmartCarry.
For carrying when you can't wear a cover garment or are wearing pants that won't support a conventional holster at the waist, you can't beat the SmartCarry - it works better than you would expect. It is a handy thing to have in your bag of tricks.

Are scene modes useful? These are!

Some scene modes seem unnecessary, but I've used these, and find them very useful!

Night Scene PortraitThis mode was designed for taking pictures of people at night using the camera's built-in flash to illuminate them while a slow shutter speed pulls detail and color in the background. When making a portrait in front of a cityscape or sunset in normal exposure modes, the foreground or the background will typically be exposed correctly but it's unlikely you'll achieve a balanced exposure between foreground and background that looks dead black. Night scene mode automatically selects a long exposure time so the background will have sufficient exposure and the aperture will be chosen so that when the flash is fired it will accurately illuminate the main foreground subject.Tip: Since you can end up with a slow shutter speed and fairly wide aperture with the flash turned on—that's the whole point of trying to balance flash and background—be careful where you focus and it's a good idea to use the camera's focus lock to ensure sharp focus on your subject. You may also need a camera support—a tripod, monopod, or a wall—to steady your camera and avoid shaky backgrounds.Night moves: My friend Tony photographed me one night after we went shopping in Tokyo's akihabara district using an EOS Digital Rebel in Night Scene mode. The camera determined an exposure of 1/60 sec at f/3/5 with an ISO setting of 400. ©2003 Tony Gomez
2. Surf and SnowIt's a matter of opposites again. Where night scenes fool metering systems with point of light and lots of darkness, beach and snow does just the opposite and give you lots of light making the built-in meter want to under expose the shot. Choosing the Surf and Snow Scene mode tells the camera what it's up against and produces well-exposed images.

State Street Chief Financial Officer To Retire In 2013
State Street Corporation (NYSE:STT) announced today that Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Edward J. Resch, 60, has informed the company of his plan to retire in 2013, after more than a decade in the role, following the appointment of his successor and an orderly transition of the function.

"We are fortunate to have benefited from his unwavering dedication for the past ten years and, particularly, for his leadership during the recent critical period of the financial crisis. The timing of his retirement will enable a thorough transition process to his successor."
State Street will conduct a comprehensive internal and external search for a new chief financial officer.
"I feel very fortunate to have worked as part of this management team over the past decade," said Edward J. Resch. "I look forward to being actively involved in the leadership transition of the finance function."

Celebrating Tax Season
For many, tax season is a chore and we are relieved that another April 15th has come and gone. For others, tax season is a time to celebrate the chance to help others. That's right. For some United Way volunteers, January through mid-April is a time when they know that their volunteering is making a huge difference in the lives of struggling families. These volunteers signed up last fall to be part of the VITA program (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance), which helps low-income people receive the tax refunds they are due. More
If we can dream it, we can do it.
Space Shuttle Discovery hitched a ride to it's final destination, a museum in Northern Virginia. As it passed by United Way Worldwide's office, I gathered with our staff on the edge of the Potomac River to witness a ceremonial flyover of our Nation's Capitol. I realized then that this moment was the realization of a dream that many thought impossible. More

After the outfielders and infielders switched places and the infielders had batted -- and run a 60-yard-dash along the right-field warning track -- the outfielders would get to make throws to third base and home plate. Once they were finished, each infielder would take four ground balls. I looked over the size of the crowd, and I realized not only was I in for a long day, but my wife, who would be sitting in the stands the whole time, was in for a really long day.
But when I went onto the outfield grass to shag flies, I knew it would all be worth it. I knew I'd have my own tale to rival the one my father told me about my grandfather:
My dad coached my Little League team. At the end of the season, all of the coaches and dads got together to play a baseball game. Now, most of the guys were in their late thirties, maybe early forties. My dad was in his fifties. On the day of the game, none of the other dads wanted to play catcher, so my dad agreed to do it. I'd never seen my dad actually play baseball, and I knew he'd never played organized ball, so when he went five for five with a single, three doubles, and a homer (all of them ropes), I couldn't believe it. He caught all nine innings of that game, too. It was the most amazing thing I'd ever seen.
When my kids tell my grandkids my story, they probably won't go into all the minutiae, like when the first broken bat of the day skittered to first base, drawing an ovation from the players and their fans. Or when a screaming foul ball hit a TV camera -- inches behind the cameraman's head. Or when a 150-man outfield turned its head as one to watch a rare line drive bounce in front of the Teal Tower in left field. And they will definitely leave out the fact that one of the players there, a right-handed pitcher out of Hollywood named Patrick Frawley, was actually good enough to get himself signed to a minor-league contract. No, the story they'll tell will go something like this:
Your grandpa tried out for the Florida Marlins. He got to shag flies in the outfield of a Major League park and spotted a huge swath of sunflower seeds in right field -- likely from a visiting player, because all the Marlins' regular right fielders prefer chewing tobacco. He was supposed to give the balls back once he caught them, but he pocketed one of them, which had "The Official Ball of the Arizona Fall League" printed on it in blue ink. He played catch with one guy who played in a local amateur league and another who DJ'd at several prominent adult-entertainment establishments in Broward County.
He watched the machine mow down batter after batter. Maybe half touched the ball, and fewer than half of those put the ball in play. Only a very few hit with any authority. So when he took his five pitches in the batting cage and swung as fast as he could at something he couldn't see, he didn't feel so bad when he missed three and fouled off two.
He did feel pretty bad about 40 yards into the 60-yard dash, when his legs tried to explain to him that they couldn't remember the last time they'd done anything remotely resembling "dashing."
After a couple more hours of sitting around on this sweltering, partly cloudy South Florida day, he lined up with all the other middle infielders at shortstop -- which made him nervous, because the whole reason he'd signed up as a second-sacker was to avoid making the throw from short. But when he took his four ground balls, he fielded them cleanly and tossed four weak-but-accurate one-hoppers to first.
Then he jogged into the stands, where your grandma informed him that, according to her calculations, the seven hours she had spent watching Middle Infielder No. 3022 mostly stand around and do nothing would cost him exactly three Julia Roberts movies.
OK, so it ain't Field of Dreams. But it'll do.

They're only given out to those with access to the project server. That's only given on an as-needed basis, i.e. by becoming an editor or a server-admin. As far as the LFS club, I've never heard of that (that doesn't mean it doesn't exist of course! My memory's atrocious).

1 egg
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
For the frosting:
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 egg whites
1-1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature, cut into 2-inch chunks
1-2/3 cups confections' sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
About 2 tablespoons red or blue food coloring (optional) – experiment with the exact amount until you get your desired color, though I have a suspicion this frosting doesn't take coloring well. My red turned out more like hot pink.
For the decorations:
Thin red licorice cut into smaller pieces, blue and white candy, or decorations of your choice
For the cupcakes:
1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well mixed. Set aside.
2. In large heatproof bowl, combine the chocolate and cocoa powder. In a small saucepan, heat the granulated sugar, butter, and water over medium-high heat, whisking occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Pour the hot butter-sugar mixture over the chocolate-cocoa mixture and whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
3. Whisk the milk, egg, egg yolk, and vanilla into the chocolate mixture until thoroughly combined.
4. Dump the flour mixture on top of the chocolate mixture. Whisk until the dry ingredients are totally mixed into the chocolate mixture.
5. Let the batter sit for at least 1 hour (I recommend longer) at room temperature, or transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to three days. (This allows the liquid to be totally absorbed into the batter, so the batter thickens up a bit and isn't so soupy.)
6. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a muffin tin, or line with paper liners.

No need to "tie my boom out of the way on deck", use the boom vang to secure the boom amidships. It may have been set up that way, but then was it ever used "offshore" and off of the Cape of Good Hope?
I keep imagining having to work up on deck and trying to get that sail up and hauling out the clew to the back of the boom, deck heaving, rolling, strapped in, cold, tired, hungry, all kinds of other stuff going on....probably yelling to the wife..."head up into the wind", waves crashing all around, lines all about the deck, mainsail falling around your head, trying to secure the blowing main, winching in the clew, holding on with one hand, cold, wet.....The rig probably is very robust, but why put it at risk when you don't have too?

A young wife's body is found after what seems to be an erotic asphyxiation accident. Detectives Benson and Stabler follow her link to a male stripper (played by Pete Starrett). He reveals their link was that he was recently gang raped by her and her two female lawyer friends, Amelia Chase (played by Diane Neal) and Pam Adler (played by Paige Turco) after the three women handcuffed him to a bed during a bachelorette party. ADA Cabot follows People v. Liberta (1984) and sues the women for this non statutory female on male rape. The investigation of one of the women, Pam Adler, then reveals the suicide was in fact a murder, as the victim planned to come clean and expose her fellow rapists.

Western Australian pastoralists have been attending workshops to learn about the State Government's new rangelands self-monitoring program.
Until now, the Department of Agriculture and Food has assessed the condition of leases on behalf of the Pastoral Lands Board (PLB).
By the end of the year, all pastoralists will have to follow new guidelines to monitor their lease themselves and lodge assessment reports directly to the PLB.
The department's David Hadden has told the Rural Report, there are mixed feelings about the system.
"But in general, they've put these reservations aside and they decide we have to do it, so if we are going to have to do it, let's do it properly and in a way that benefits us and it was very gratifying to see that," he said.
The department says measures will be in place to ensure pastoralists provide an accurate assessment of the condition of their property.

I want to complain about this content:
'you don't get beat, and that is the most important thing the manager stressed to us.'. That kinda says it all. The reason we play 1 up front is so that we can get the other 10 behind the ball. Villa were drawing 0-0 today with 20 minutes to go and then threw on another striker and ended up winning 2-1. We dont throw our extra striker on until the last 3 minutes so what good is that?
