''Touch of Evil'' (1958) is one of the last and one of the greatest examples of FilmNoir, written by, directed by and co-starring Creator/OrsonWelles.
Welles plays Captain [[DirtyCop Hank Quinlan]], a fat, ugly and sad corrupt police officer. The black-and-white film also features Creator/CharltonHeston as [[KnightInSourArmor Mike Vargas]], a Mexican narcotics agent on his honeymoon, Janet Leigh as his bride, and Marlene Dietrich as Tanya, a cigar-smoking Mexican gypsy brothel owner with huge beautiful eyes.
The film begins with an exploding car killing a powerful businessman, witnessed by Vargas and his new wife Susie on the Mexican border. Claiming joint jurisdiction (as the bombing may have been placed in Mexico), he works his way into the investigation headed by Quinlan. Quinlan quickly sets his beady eyes on a lowly Mexican employee that had a grudge with that businessman (the employee wanted to marry the businessman's white daughter). When Vargas notices that some of the evidence found by Quinlan's loyal partner Menzies was clearly planted (but can't prove it), Vargas starts questioning Quinlan's case history. But while this is all happening, Susie Vargas is left all alone at a creepy hotel where some gang members that Vargas is after is holed up as well... and Quinlan starts making a few calls to the gang's boss about what to do with that lonely newlywed...
The story goes that producer Alan Zugsmith offered Welles a pile of scripts to direct and Welles asked for the worst one (based on pulp novel ''Badge of Evil'') to prove that he could make a great film of a bad script. Such a thing isn't really possible, but Welles did revise the script into something much better, and filmed that. Unfortunately, the theatrical cut [[ExecutiveMeddling didn't resemble Welles' vision.]] Decades later the film was re-cut twice - first in 1976 and again in 1998 when a letter Welles wrote full of instructions on how the film was to be put together (which Creator/CharltonHeston himself reportedly had been in possession of for years) was used to reconstruct the film as close to Welles's vision as possible.
!!This film provides examples of:
* TheAlcoholic: Quinlan doesn't drink often, but when he does he gets absolutely ''plastered''.
* AuthorAppeal: Welles had been a huge fan of Dennis Weaver's work on ''Series/{{Gunsmoke}}'' for years, and wrote his part specifically so he could have the chance to direct him in a movie. Similarly, Marlene Dietrich's role was [[ThrowItIn added during filming]] because she and Welles were best friends and she wanted a part in the movie.
* AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: Charlton Heston's attempts to speak Spanish are pretty laughable. When the sentence is short, he'll give it the old college try, but his gringo accent betrays him (e.g. "¿Puedo usar el teléfono?" in Sanchez's apartment). Most of the time, though, he'll just mumble something deliberately inaudible and end it with an appropriate Spanish word. (e.g. "Murmurbliggleblamurmur derechos aquí" in the same scene, presumably explaining to the suspect that he has no jurisdiction.)
* CaliforniaDoubling: Sorta. While it depicts life on the California/Mexico border, most scenes were filmed in Venice, California about 140 miles away.
* TheCameo: Welles's old friend and former co-star Creator/JosephCotten makes a brief appearance at the bombing crime scene, as the coroner. ("Now you could strain him through a sieve.")
* CloudCuckooLander: The Mirador Motel Night Manager.
* CreepyCrossdresser: [=McCambridge=] appears as an androgynous-looking gang member abducting Susie Vargas. Her big line? "I like to watch."
* DiesWideOpen: Grandi when he is strangled.
* DirtyCop: Quinlan has been framing suspects for years.
* DodgyToupee: Grandi loses his at one point.
* EpicTrackingShot: The opening consists of one long tracking shot, which is considered by film aficionados to be one of the best ever.
* {{Fanservice}}: Janet Leigh laying on her bed (both when talking to Vargas over the phone and later, when sleeping). In a figure-hugging teddy, sans skirt. [[ShesGotLegs With her long and beautiful legs featured prominently.]]
* FilmNoir: Considered one of the last great ones from that era.
* FramingTheGuiltyParty: "How many did you frame?" "Nobody that wasn't guilty!" And in fact it turns out that the bombing suspect actually was guilty.
** Subverted with Quinlan's effort to get the Mexican drug gang to kidnap an innocent Susie Vargas, then kill the gang leader and frame the drugged Susie for that murder.
* GreyAndGrayMorality: Quinlan only frames criminals he thinks are guilty, and Vargas is only able to stop him when Menzies -- whom Quinlan had previously ''taken a bullet'' for, causing his limp -- agrees to betray him. Vargas for his part sees the grayness of policework
--> '''Vargas''': ''"A policeman's job is only easy in a PoliceState."''
* GutFeeling: "I wonder, what makes you so very sure it was dynamite?" "My leg."
* HitlerCam: Orson Welles was fond of this trope, going all the way back to ''Film/CitizenKane''. Here he uses it for the scene where Quinlan, Vargas, and others are gathered around the body of the murder victim. Notably he does not use it when showing Menzies, Quinlan's faithful sidekick.
* ICantBelieveItsNotHeroin: There is ''actual'' heroin as well, but...
-->'''Gang Leader''': We've scattered more reefer stubs around.
-->'''Grandi''': You kids didn't use none of that stuff yourself, anh?
-->'''Ginnie''': Think we're crazy?
-->'''Grandi''': Nobody in the Grandi family gets hooked, understand? That's the rule.
* IncrediblyObviousBomb: So obvious that the lady passenger in the car complains about a ticking noise.
* IOweYouMyLife: Menzies, to Quinlan.
* IronicEcho: "That's the second bullet I took for you, partner..."
* KnightInSourArmor: A long time ago, Quinlan was unable to prove the guy who killed his wife committed the crime. It drives him to start framing guys he's convinced by the pain in "my leg" are guilty.
* MadeOfPlasticine: "Once he ran this town. Now you could strain him through a sieve."
* MalignantPlotTumor: The original bombing investigation is almost completely forgotten by the end of the film in favor of Vargas' attempts to bring down Quinlan. The ending shoehorns in a line that the guy Quinlan framed really was guilty after all.
* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: One of the most infamous examples, Welles assured Heston he didn't have to do a Hispanic accent for his FakeNationality role as the Mexican Narcotics officer Vargas, cobbling together unofficial backstory saying that Vargas lost his accent due to his travels outside of Mexico and working with Caucasians.
** It must be noted that there are no Mexicans in the cast. Grandi is played by an Armenian actor Akim Tamiroff and the Gypsy Fortune teller played by Creator/MarleneDietrich who doesn't even hide her famous German accent. The film is set in a border area between America and Mexico and actually shot around Venice Beach, Los Angeles with very distinct, identifiable architecture. It's not a realistic film by any means. In any case, the idea of actors affecting accents for their part wasn't all that common among Golden Age actors like Charlton Heston or Welles, who weren't into the later dominant style of MethodActing.
* TheOner: The opening sequence features one of the most famous continuous camera shots. Also, at the shoe clerk's apartment, there is a ''long'' continuous shot where the camera moves from room to room following Heston.
* ReCut: A "director's cut" of ''Touch of Evil'' based on a contemporary Welles memo of how he wanted the film to be is now available on video.
* RedRightHand: Inverted in a way. Quinlan has a limp and says he can tell when someone is guilty because his leg begins to hurt. However, the reason he has a limp is because he took a bullet for his partner.
* SweaterGirl: Janet Leigh manages to provide {{Fanservice}} while portraying a respectable woman by wearing some very, very tight sweaters.
* VillainousBreakdown: Hank's descent after his last meeting with Grandi.
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Hank Quinlan became a very well-respected policeman through careful evidence tampering. In the end, it even turns out that the man Quinlan was trying to frame in the film ''was'' guilty, giving him the epitaph, "He was a great detective, but a lousy cop."
* YourDaysAreNumbered: When Quinlan visits his friend Tana the fortune teller. He asks her to see his future. Tana warns him "You haven't got any... Your future is all used up."

Stepping outside super for retirement saving
- From: Herald Sun
- September 05, 2014
IT DOESN'T matter whether you think Clive Palmer is an overinflated windbag or a rare voice of reason in the national Parliament.
His action this week in combining with the Abbott Government to axe the mining tax and dramatically slow superannuation increases provides thoughtful investors with one of their best chances to totally rethink saving for retirement.
The old-school approach to retirement saving was to gradually pay off your house over a working lifetime and then live off the pension at retirement.
That worked for a while when retirement lasted a few short years.
However, as health, lifestyles and the retirement years improved, it no longer cut the mustard.
Successive governments will also progressively restrict access to the pension — no matter what political stripe they wear — just to keep the current system sustainable.
Then came the superannuation revolution, which quickly assumed the sort of "nation building'' bi-partisan political support and excitement normally reserved for things like the Snowy Mountain Scheme or the NBN — on second thoughts, scrap that second one.
The early years of superannuation were a three-way pact between workers, employers and the government.
Workers gave up pay rises which were then paid into their superannuation accounts by their employers instead.
The government allowed those super savings to accumulate in a tax advantaged way in return for some long term Budget relief for the expensive and fast-growing age pension and health systems.
The concept was that the percentage of wages going into superannuation would increase over time from an initial 3 per cent to an eventual 15 per cent which, over a lifetime, had a chance of providing enough accumulated cash to provide for a worry-free retirement.
The age pension would remain as a safety net for those who outlived their super or for other reasons needed help but, progressively, the majority of the retired population would transition from being pensioners to living off their superannuation savings.
Now, courtesy of dual purpose miner/politician Clive Palmer and his understandable desire to farewell the mining tax, that transition has been pushed much further into the future.
The current 9.5 per cent contribution to super will now stay at that level until 2021 and potentially remain a political plaything well beyond that date.
That decision will strip the average 25-year-old of around $100,000 of retirement savings — assuming they don't do anything to counteract it. The superannuation industry are understandably outraged by this decision, which will strip billions from the accounts they manage — and millions from their management fees.
However, there has never been anything to stop individuals saving for their own retirement — either by making voluntary contributions to superannuation (up to a varying amount each year) or through investments outside super such as shares, property or fixed interest.
Many Australians already do just that. Australian households have actually become excellent savers, putting aside around 10 per cent of their income for a rainy day since the cold winds of the GFC first blew and it is a habit they now need to reinforce and formalise.
My barefoot colleague Scott Pape has long advocated everybody should put aside an emergency fund or mojo account to tide them over for unexpected emergencies — and that is excellent advice.
What these superannuation changes do is emphasise the importance of building on that advice and actually starting up a retirement fund separate from superannuation.
I like to call it the three pools theory of retirement planning — aiming to stop work with three roughly equal pools of assets being your house, superannuation and non-super investments.
Many people retire with the house pool overflowing and the other two with the tide out — the classic case of being asset rich and income poor.
By keeping these three pools at equivalent levels — no matter how small — the retiree has better flexibility to ride out changes and earn a reliable income.
What the Palmer changes and the many before them show is that super now has too many regulatory risks to be relied on exclusively.
Superannuation tax concessions are great but themselves are potentially unsustainable and being locked into a lifelong investment with rules that change periodically demands a change in retirement planning by all of us.
AUSTRALIA Post is not going broke slowly — it is actually happening before our eyes.
While its parcels business is booming courtesy of internet shopping, the underlying letters business is in rapid and potentially terminal decline.
Doing nothing is no longer an option. Australia Post either needs to radically scale back its obligations of daily delivery to a growing number of addresses, jack up postage prices or preferably both.
The forces generating Australia Post's escalating losses are well understood as digital communications such as email and SMS erode mail volumes.
That trend will escalate dramatically as companies encourage their customer bases to go entirely digital for bills and payments.
Australia Post's financial results show the digital tipping point is now well and truly behind it and much worse is to come as mail volumes fall by around 10 per cent a year.
Despite robust parcels earnings of $175 million pre-tax, overall Australia Post lost $105.9 million and the letters business alone lost $328.4 million in the year to June.
That means the parcels business can no longer cross-subsidise the regulated letters business and the Federal Government faces a bleak choice between writing blank cheques each year to keep the letters flowing or allowing Australia Post to radically restructure its business to suit falling volumes.
The second option is the only sensible one and could involve two-speed mail delivery with higher costs for faster service and less frequent deliveries.
Longer term, Australia Post will need to look very different and going back to a rose-tinted memory of red bikes, whistles and double daily deliveries will be as useful as reminiscing about daily milk bottle and bread deliveries.
Digital disruption is real and ripping the guts out of any business that doesn't change, so Australia Post's best chance is to keep investing in the parcels business, try to dominate the digital letterbox and bill payments and radically restructure its letters business as fast as it can.Originally published as Stepping outside super

HELOISE: Gently pat down coconut when measuring
Dear Heloise: How do you measure coconut? Tightly packed in the measuring cup, like brown sugar; or loosely measured, like flour and sugar? -- Patrick C., Colville, Wash.
Good question, Patrick! Grated or flaked coconut should be lightly added to a measuring cup, then gently patted down. Add more if needed, and level off the top.

The best OBGYN I have had. She's very easy to talk to and listens to her patients. She makes you feel very comfortable and is very knowledgeable. She has delivered two of my children by repeat cesarean and was great. I would definitely recommend her.
I have never met a dr. as sweet as dr. vallery. She is the reason I have my son today who is now 2 years old. She referred me to an amazing specialist to get help and talked to me like a friend. But is very smart and explains everything thoroughly. I had to switch dr.s unfortunately after I got pregnant with my son because she didn't accept it at the time. But she saw my name on the hospital admittance list when I was in labor and came in to talk and say hi after it had been 9 months since I last saw her. I def. encourage everyone to go see her. She is excellent and very friendly. I would never go to any other doc!
Dr. Vallery has the utmost respect and care for her patients. She listens intently to your concerns and consistently asks if their is anything else you are concerned about. Her ability to diagnose and treat are also top in my book.Raylynn Jansing

Life is too short! Trying the online thing for the first time in my life. I'm still fairly new to the Bay Area. I moved from New England via spending the last 10 years in South Florida. I love what I do for work, but have made the resolution to have balance in my life. I'm looking to meet someone who is not judgmental, is affectionate, loyal, enjoys laughing at herself and me, she loves travel, exploring and wine (that would be a big bonus). Lets's face it, it all comes down to a connection with another person, but I also value trust, honesty, and friendship as the cornerstones of a good healthy relationship...That's what I'm on here looking for. I'm passionate and ambitious and would love to meet someone that would appreciate and accept me for me. I've always been one to work hard and play hard. I'd like to think that I've gained a ton of wisdom through my past and I'm only looking forward, armed with that experience. If you are ready to meet someone that's real, let me know. Send me a message if... You want to be treated with respect and as an equal. Chemistry gets us started, then it's what we invest and make of it.

Scott Carpenter, 2nd US astronaut in orbit, dies - 0 Comments
DENVER — Scott Carpenter, the second American to orbit the Earth, was guided by two instincts: overcoming fear and quenching his insatiable curiosity. He pioneered his way into the heights of space and the depths of the ocean floor.
"Conquering of fear is one of life's greatest pleasures and it can be done a lot of different places," he said.
His wife, Patty Barrett, said Carpenter died Thursday in a Denver hospice of complications from a September stroke. Carpenter, who lived in Vail, was 88.

Holographic Storage Slated to Hit Market This Fall 201
from the just-in-time-for-christmas 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).
InPhase Technologies launching its 600 GB write-once disk and a drive this fall
Good thinking. I mean, if they were launching the disk without the drive (or even the other way round) it would be a lot less likely to succeed.
So says you.
Bleeding edge is always a ridiculous expense. The people who are willing to be there already know who they are. That you even raise this question means that you are not.
OTOH, neither am I, but that's not the point. The point is, this is the first commercial volley of a new technology, which means that a few years hence it will be cheaper with even higher data densities.
Meaning, potentially, something like the entire run of every season of every Star Trek series ever... on one disc.
The tape/HD size ratio is getting so ridiculous that at work we're seriously considering using Hard Drives as removable tape-like media for backup. Any other solution for backing up terabytes of data is too expensive.
We've been doing this for a few years actually, as a "roll your own" solution. We currently use removable drive carriers from DataStor, and 500 GB Seagate disks (first ATA, now SATA). We also use foam-padded locking carriers that are take off-site every day. We do ~1.2 TB of backups every nigh
Good thinking. I mean, if they were launching the disk without the drive (or even the other way round) it would be a lot less likely to succeed.
Yeah, that would be like a game company shipping a console before any games are available for it. Err...wait...
And for that matter, the VW Club of America will need one to see how many VW Beetles they can cram into the drive.
160 Mbit/sec? That's about 33% of the speed of current hard drives, maximum.
And 600GB on a CD-sized disk is a lot higher data denisty than current hard drives, and its probably more resistant to shock, etc. With a write-once disk, you aren't looking to replace hard drives in regular day-to-day use, its a archival, backup, and perhaps high-volume distribution medium (where you fill several of them with data, jump in a car, and drive to where you want your data to end up). Now, admittedly, I don't have the ki
Personally, I think the only uses for a 600GB write-only-once drive are backups, a DYI Nuclear Weapons for Rising Countries Kit (or similar content), taking "snapshots" of the Internet, and storing the known digits of pi, largest prime numbers, and other interesting numbers.
But what do you do when Pi changes? Then you're hosed.
How about some kind of tag with the amount, the currency and the date? That way, the browser could show us the value in our own currency, checked against the exchange rate for that day?[...] a 600GB disc will cost around $180 (£90) [...]
It is the quality rather than the quantity that matters. - Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 B.C. - A.D. 65)

Every smile is worth smiling
Every morning, When I wake up, I see your smiling face, Staring at me.
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime, I'll see your smiling face, Once in a lifetime I'll feel your gental touch, Once in a lifetime ill be dilling up your phone, Just to tell you that It's all just to much
My Life, My World, My Everything
When I first met you I felt like I had known you forever, telling you my secrets and what I didn't want ever.
Summer Of 2013
S ummer time, when the sun shines brightly, without a cloud in the sky, and you think to yourself, what a beautiful world. Umbrellas, all around, giving cover to the drinks, the drinks to start the party, Men all around, from angle to angle giving up the eye, ready to pounce, Music blasting, all the hottest tracks of the year,
The day we broke up
The day we broke up, I felt like my life was taken, All the things we did, For the life we tried to build,
You and I
You and I, we are so good. The way you hold me, and I hold you. The way I cry, you cry The way I fall, you catch me.
I love the way
I love the way you talk, I love the way you smell, I love the way you make me laugh, Even when my life's a living hell.

Every smile is worth smiling
Every morning,
When I wake up,
I see your smiling face,
Staring at me.
I wonder why you always smile,
Until one day I ask,
And you tell me,
Every smile is worth smiling.
There is always a reason for a smile,
A smile that's placed on your face,
For a happy reason,
To show your happy,
Every smile is worth smiling.
Without a doubt
That smiles still there,
When nothing puts you down,
That smile is always there
To turn that frown around
Every smile is worth smiling,
All day everyday
Till the sun ...

Sweatshop Workers Speak Out on Campus, February 7
On Thursday, February 7, the Ethics Minor Program at St. John Fisher College will host Honduran and Haitian garment workers for a talk about their working conditions in sweatshops. Their talk will take place beginning at 12:15 p.m. in Basil 135.
A worker from Honduras will share stories of barriers she and her co-workers faced when organizing to improve the working conditions in their factory. And a worker from Haiti will speak about her union's struggle to force her employer to honor a nationwide minimum wage increase.
Other event sponsors include SweatFree Communities, the Labor Religion Coalition of New York State, and United Students Against Sweatshops.

NEW YORK — Russell Simmons and friends such as Susan Sarandon, P. Diddy, Jay-Z, Mariah Carey, Fat Joe, Tim Robbins, Dead Prez and Dame Dash made their voices heard Wednesday (June 4) at City Hall, where they rallied against New York state's strict drug sentencing laws.
"When I was younger, I would see kids get caught with an ounce [of narcotics] and do 10, 15 years," Dash said. "I never understood that. I don't think they deserve 10, 15 years. There's a lot of other things that need to be addressed at that time to make the person a better individual and make them evolve as a better human being, rather than come out [of jail] bitter."
"The laws aren't fair," said Jay-Z as he made his way to the stage. (Click here for photos from the rally. ) "I personally know a lot of people that's locked up unjustly and unfairly. [The MCs] have got the streets, so we gotta come out here and show our support, our strong voice."
Diddy said rappers should pay especially close attention to the state's Rockefeller drug laws — enacted in 1973 when Nelson Rockefeller was governor — because of the enormous impact they've had on the hip-hop community.
"This law has affected hip-hop, our families, our friends, our future," Diddy said backstage. "Ninety-six percent of the people incarcerated by this law are minorities. It's one of the most unjust laws in history.
"The money it cost to incarcerate these people and keep them housed in jail can be used for our kids to get educated," he added. "We're using all this money to lock up people who are nonviolent criminals, who basically made a f—ed up mistake. Everybody deserves a second chance. You don't get a second chance with the Rockefeller drug law. You get sentenced and there ain't no turning back."
The effects of the Rockefeller laws also have an impact on the rest of society, actor Tim Robbins said. He surmised that putting nonviolent criminals in jail with violent criminals only makes them worse when they are eventually released.
"You gotta keep putting the pressure on," he said. "This is about removing Draconian drug laws that are targeting [people] in a racial way."
Robbins' mate, Sarandon, wanted to clarify that Simmons and company were not saying it's OK to be caught with narcotics, but rather that fairer sentences are needed.
"Judges should have the autonomy to make decisions," she said. "It's a glitch that's existed for years and needs to be dropped so that we can save whole generations. The problem with trying to change this kind of policy is that the politicians don't want to be perceived as being soft on drugs. We have to give them the facts so they can do something more constructive. But most people know it's not working, it's just the people [the laws] effect are voiceless people. We have to change that."
The rally's leading voice said he was pleased with the strong turnout, but that he did not consider it a victory.
"There's no success until the drug laws are repealed," said Simmons. "The governor has made verbal proposals we think are worth fighting for. When we see it in the form of a bill we'll see it's serious. It's been dialogue for 30 years. We need more than dialogue, we need action. With the people's support, the politicians can get work done."
Simmons, who a few weeks ago gave New York's governor until Wednesday to repeal the laws, said Gov. George Pataki has three more weeks until he and his coalition take more action.

Rihanna was the lady in red at Hooray Henry's in West Hollywood. She clearly had Corey Hart's 80's hit "Sunglasses At Night" in mind while getting dressed, as she sported a pair of $325 Gucci Techno Color Ultra Light Round Sunglasses, Meadham Kirchhoff Spring 2014 Red Long Embroidered Bat Slip, and $725 Manolo Blahnik Red Chaos Cuff Sandals:
Her sunglasses showcase a dark ruthenium slim steel frame, double bridge, the iconic Italian fashion house's logo printed on the lens and engraved on the temples, and a yellow multilayer mirrored blue lens.
On the runway, her dress kept in line with the collection's bat-inspired theme with bat motif shades, a sleek black snakeskin embossed coat with a natural python collar, red knee-highs, and artsy python and red fabric-detailed shoes.
Her red suede sandals feature buckled ankle straps and functional heels. Check out the red patent versions below.
This look had vixen written all over it and I loved it!
What do you think? Hot! or Hmm…?
Images: AKM-GSI, Style.com
over priced nighty
Love it!
I really like it! I'm not usually a fan of transparent dresses, but RiRi pulled it off with the monochromatic look and the shades.
Dressed Like the devil. How fitting.
I love me sum Rih! She 'a too dope! & that dress as well.
Rihanna is iconic..point blank period!! She can't do no wrong in my eyes.
Wifey<3 my fellow West Indian Gyal..love h3r!
I don't understand
@yola u don't understand what!? :/
this is horrible, point blank
one thing about rihanna is that she almost always serves up a complete look coupled wit swag. this nightie isn't my cup of tea, however, the shoes, tossed up hair, and minimal accessories with matching red lip….. idk.. rounds out the "look"
thats why she got that award, b/c she always goes for it. i get it. i don't like it… but i get it
lingerie as a dress, really???
Dawn that lingerie dress is really expensive & I wanted it too..I guess I gotta find a cheaper version b/c there's no way I spend thousand of $$ on that..I ball on a budget ..lol
Rih knows that she has the body and face to pull this kind of crap off. You can't see Kim K. pulling this off in the streets! I applaud Rih for always pushing the envelope. Dress conservative later!
She looks like 90's throwback trash. Not one thing with this look is working.
I love it, she looks like a 90's supermodel.
She looks good, but why clutch your chest when you know your outfit is see-thru? You might as well put your hands down since that's the look you were going for….but that's none of my business
She looks like a hooker from the 90s. The whole "pushing the envelope" w/her risque clothing is so predictable. We get it, you're not afraid to show your nipples.
She looks great!

The city was founded in 1531 by Franciscan monks. It is both literally and figuratively an important crossroads of Mexican history. Four of the most significant events in Mexico's history took place here. First, plans for Mexican independence from Spain were hatched here in 1810. Second, in 1848, the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo ...

We bussed from the Queretaro bus station to our hostel, dropped off our things, then went out for some late night tacos. Absolutely delicious. I don't think Mexican tacos could ever get old.

Since the game went long, I didn't have as much time as I thought I would that afternoon. So, I decided to just wander the streets for awhile before heading back to the hostel.

- PROJECT Concurio Logo Design Contest
- About Logo Design
The Concurio logo was conceptualized keeping in mind the company's dynamism and attitude towards reaching furthest corners of the world with their open source solutions. At the initial stages of drafting, I thought the logo needs to be modern, sleek, flowing and circular in nature. Hence the use of a wave for the flowing effect.
Since Concurio's mission is to establish a solid connection between users and data flow, I wanted to show the interconnectivity between the wave and the actual letters. The wave is distinguished from the letters since the typed text is on a flat colour.

The Financial Planning Association held its 2012 Business Solutions conference in Burlingame, Calif., last week. Brooke Southall offers his take on the event, including discussions about technology and ways to improve the financial-planning profession. FPA Chairman Marty Kurtz introduced the idea of a peer-review system to help planners meet their fiduciary duties. "The only way the fiduciary standard works is if we stand before it and say: This is me," Kurtz told attendees.

Gregory Welk, director of the Nutrition and Wellness Research Center at Iowa State University, has tested the accuracy of this new generation of wellness devices. In 2011, Welk strapped eight activity trackers and one lab-grade monitor onto each of 51 volunteers. For 71 minutes the volunteers ran on treadmills, swept floors, biked, and walked outside with heavy backpacks while the gizmos measured their energy expenditure. The most accurate commercial unit, Welk found, was the BodyMedia Fit, an armband whose data deviated from the lab-grade monitor's results by less than 1 percent. A distant second, at 11 percent off, was the Fitbit, a thumb-size device that clips onto your waistband.
