Modus operandi similar to the Perungudi heist
In a daring strike, clinically similar to last month's bank robbery at Perungudi, armed men made away with Rs.14 lakh from the Keelkattalai branch of Indian Overseas Bank on Monday afternoon.
Brandishing pistols and taking care to seize the mobile phones of staff and customers first, the gangsters employed a modus operandi similar to the one used by the culprits who struck at the Bank of Baroda branch at Perungudi in January.
St. Thomas Mount district police officers told reporters that a group of five men arrived at the branch on Medavakkam Main Road at 2.05 p.m. in a car. The branch is located very close to the Madipakkam police station and the Keelkattalai Bus Terminus. While one of them stood near the gate, four others barged inside the premises. Two of them pulled out a pistol, taking the nearly dozen staff by shock and surprise. The men snatched the mobile phones of the staff and a few customers present at the time. Two of them entered the branch manager's room and asked him for the keys to the safety vault.
They were informed that the clerk who had the keys was yet to return after lunch. They then made their way to the cash counters and threatened the staff there to open the doors. Without any protest, the staff opened the counter and the men snatched the cash boxes, emptied the cash into a couple of bags and left the spot in the car in which they had arrived. Eye-witnesses said the men had entered the bank and returned to the car in minutes. A young man, working in a hardware store exactly opposite the bank, said there was no commotion, but the sight of a group of men walking away with bags from the bank was abnormal. As news about the incident spread, anxious account holders, many of them women, flocked the branch. They were concerned about the safety of their valuables in the vault. On January 23, four armed men robbed Rs. 19 lakh from Bank of Baroda in Perungudi. On Monday, the gang entered the bank five minutes after power supply was cut. The daily one-hour power cut in Keelkattalai is between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m.

Ģ Student who gave girls anti-hyperactivity medication now faces multiple felonies; subsequent search of school turns up no additional drugs
By Faye Ellison
Three students at Jefferson County High School found themselves answering to investigators, school officials and parents after taking the prescription drug Adderrall, with one of the three suffering from an overdose.
According to information from JCHS Principal Dr. Molly Howard and Jefferson County Sheriff's Office Investigator Clark Hiebert, the drug is prescribed for adults and children with attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity. Hiebert said Adderrall is a schedule II drug. ōIf someone has the medical problem
it slows them down,ö Hiebert said.

-Philanthropist and liberal activist George Soros has been funding J Street, the Washington Times has revealed. Though J Street's executive director, Jeremy Ben Ami, has denied any donations to the dovish group by Soros in the past, tax records reveal that Soros and his two children have contributed a total $245,000 to J Street from a Manhattan address in New York from July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2009.
J Street's website previously stated Soros' reluctance to get involved with the group for fear that the association would be used against it. Soros has spoken out against Israel's 2009 conflict with Gaza and President George Bush's refusal to recognize Hamas. Upon the article's release the website was edited and now says "J Street has said it doesn't receive money from George Soros, but now news reports indicate that he has in fact contributed."
Tax records also revealed that almost half of J Street's $811,697 revenue in that fiscal year came from an individual donor named Consolacion Esdicul in Happy Valley, Hong Kong. "She is trying to make the Middle East a Happy Valley," said Ben Ami, referring to the Hong Kong suburb. Esdicul reportedly donated money at the urging of Bill Benter, a Philadelphia based philanthropist and CEO of Acusis, a medical services firm.
-David Axelrod is smiling despite the possible setbacks for the Democrats come November 2. In an interview with Lloyd Grove, President Obama's senior advisor seemed hopeful about a tossup election in which Democrats might win Republican seats while losing their own. Commenting on the criticism the president and his party have received, Axelrod said he foresaw it two years ago when he warned the president that "our numbers aren't going to be what they are today, and all those guys who are being heralded as geniuses are going to be decried as idiots." Axelrod, who is Jewish, will leave his position at the White House in a few months to run Obama's reelection campaign. (The Daily Beast)
-Rep. Ron Klein, the Jewish Democratic incumbent for Florida's 22nd congressional district, is getting help from fellow Florida Rep. Alcee Hastings, who plans on fundraising for Klein in areas with large black populations. Hastings, who is African-American, wants to increase black turnout for Klein and bar Republican opponent Allen West, who is also black, from gaining an advantage. The two are locked in a close election with both raising over $2 million. West has challenged Klein's support for Israel, while Klein has accused West of wanting to destroy Social Security. (POLITICO)
-Races to Watch: In the Pennsylvania Senate race, a September 21 CNN/Time poll showed an increase in support for both Republican Pat Toomey at 49% and Democratic opponent Rep. Joe Sestak at 44%. Toomey has maintained a higher position in the polls in recent weeks. (CNN/Time)
-New York Republican gubernatorial candidate Carl Paladino has bought a one-way ticket to Washington D.C. for Democrat Sheldon Silver, leader of the state Assembly, after comments Silver made to Jewish Week that New Yorkers "should consider moving out of state" if Paladino wins. In response, Paladino bought Silver a $75.00 coach Amtrak ticket to leave Albany November 3 after the election. Paladino's campaign manager, Michael Caputo, said "after Carl Paladino wins in New York, the only place that will hire him [Silver] is the Obama Administration." The ticket is waiting to be picked up at the train station. (WGRZ)

With Java and JavaScript support, Resin gives web applications the flexibility to choose the right language for the task. Resin's leading XSL (XML stylesheet language) support encourages separation of content from formatting. Resin provides a fast servlet runner for Apache, allowing Apache to run servlets and JSP files. But On Resin1.2(maybe Resin1.1 also) with Win32(Win2k Simplify Chinese version)Apache, ServletExec will return the source code of JSP files when a HTTP request is appended with one of the following characters: ".."

Series: Saturday Science Links (20 entries)
The biggest science stories of the week are reviewed.

The biggest science stories of the week are reviewed.
Companion series to the spring 2015 book club featuring "The Lost World of Genesis One: Ancient Cosmology and the Origins Debate" by John Walton.
In none of these cases was Newton inserting God into a "gap" into our knowledge that science would someday fill. Rather, his prior belief in God helped him arrive at attitudes and ideas that have unquestionably advanced our understanding of nature.
Historian Peter Harrison argues that harmony between faith and science is not as simple as it seems, and some versions of "harmony" can do damage to the Christian faith.
In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
In the early 1700s, Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz famously disagreed about whether God periodically "corrected" the orbits of the planets. Why their disagreement matters for today's debates about God and evolution.
Evangelicals are skeptical of space exploration—but can pastors change this from the pulpit?
All creation is the doings of God's hands, no matter how he did it. When I look at a painting, I can connect somehow with the painter, and the same goes with the universe and God.
Studying the basis of life's design cannot meaningfully be separated from the character of the One responsible for it. By living in relationship with him through whom all things were created and in whom all things have their being, we experience the purpose and meaning with which this universe is infused.
John Calvin really believed that the sun revolved around the earth, but we shouldn't dismiss the rest of his theology because of this error.
The former chair of the Harvard University physics department muses on how faith gives meaning to his scientific work.
The story of the Genesis Rock reminds us of how biblical and scientific accounts, despite their different purviews and purposes, remain inexorably linked in our understanding of origins.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
Are black holes in trouble? Could life have come from space? What do we know about the religious lives of Indian scientists? Find the answers to these questions and more.
This week's news features volcanoes, skeletons, and stars, as well as a thought-provoking new book from InterVarsity press.
From science and religion blogs: quantum uncertainty and God, the remarkable fact that we have come to understand our place in the created order, and the role of theology in making wise choices about the use of technology.

あらすじ | Prince Taisei's Minister is on his way to set up a notice board announcing that Prince Taisei is distributing wealth at the palace. The Minister explains that because of Prince Taisei's sincerity in wanting to help the poor, the deity Bonten granted his wish by giving him the Wish-fulfilling Gem from the Dragon Palace. At the Palace, a woman requests to take a closer look at this precious gem, and snatches it to everyone's surprise. She escapes but leaves behind her name: the Dragon Princess. In part two, Taisei Taishi demands that feverish prayers be offered to Taishakuten so that he will return the gem. Answering the Prince's request, Taishakuten brings along a heavenly army and attacks the Dragon Palace. The heavenly army eventually forces the Dragon Princess to surrender the gem, and Taishakuten and his entourage return to their heavenly abodes. |

Police: Man arrested after cutting hole in roof of liquor store
Wichita police arrested a 20-year-old man on suspicion of burglary after he cut a hole in the roof of a south-side liquor store early Saturday.
Sgt. Scott Brunow said police responding to an alarm at Lamar's Liquor Stop, 1014 W. Pawnee, noticed noise coming from atop the store about 3:25 a.m. As a fire truck carrying a ladder arrived to aid the officers, the man jumped down and ran. He was apprehended nearby, Brunow said.
Brunow said the man cut the hole in the roof to gain access to the store, which is near Seneca. No property loss was reported, he said.

Even if there were real 3D, how would you make use of this properly? Current story telling only works because you can limit and control what people see. How will a horror movie work if half the audience can already see the guy hiding behind the rock before he leaps out? (This is just one example of a ton of problems that would arise)
I'm not sure that most people who want 3D know what they are actually asking for - personally I think 2D is perfect just leave it alone.
You can still have true 3D and mise en scene at the same time. True 3D film would still require a director's eye to progress the story, focus the attention of the audience, and deliver some degree us suspense and drama. One could have true 3D, and not at the same time have it basically be a Holodeck program where the viewer sees everything.

CBS Sports' Steve Beuerlein Talks San Diego Chargers Vs. San Francisco 49ers
The San Diego Chargers are still in the hunt for a playoff spot, but after three consecutive NFC Championship Game appearances, the San Francisco 49ers are out. They have the opportunity to play the spoiler for the Chargers, but what has happened to them this year? CBS Sports' Steve Beuerlein spoke on this weekend's west coast game and looks at what has gone wrong and right.
Team Grades: Questionable Call, Injuries And Seahawks Prove Too Much For 49ers
Few people thought the 49ers were going to go into Seattle and beat the Seahawks, but the 49ers gave the home team a scare. If not for injuries and a bad call, San Francisco might have been able to keep their postseason hopes alive.
Team Grades: 49ers Outplayed, Lose Big Must-Win Game To Seahawks
The Thursday Night game between the Seahawks and 49ers was not as competitive as anticipated. Despite being at home, and needing to win this game more than their opponent, San Francisco had no answer for the defending Super Bowl Champs, and the result was a Seattle victory.
No Need For 49ers To Panic
There is no reason for the 49ers to panic despite their 4-4 record. There is a big difference between 5-4 and 4-5 so a win this week should silence the panic talks. A loss though will certainly warrant a raise in concern.
Team Grades: 49ers With Lackluster Performance Lose Heartbreaker To Rams
San Francisco had a chance late, but couldn't get the job done, losing to St. Louis. It was the same story after a 49er loss where most of the team played a role. This time around though it was no fault of the defense.
Opponent Profile: 49ers Take On Rams For The Second Time In A Month
First up for the 49ers after their bye is the St. Louis Rams. After beating them less than a month ago, San Francisco should have no problems doing it again in front of their own home crowd.

It looks like you posted both here and in our support forum. So I thought I'd post the answer here, as well, since the answer isn't really theme-specific, and could be implemented by anyone.
I'm not personally familiar with Facebook Pixel, but I just did a quick Google search and came across the instructions for implementing here:
https://www.facebook.com/help/373979379354234It just says that you need to copy the code to the <head>
of the specific webpage where you want to implement the tracking.
So, there's nothing really specific to the current theme you need to know. I would just hook to the standard wp_head (required in all WordPress themes) from your child theme's functions.php.
It could look something like this:
function my_fb_pixel_tracking() { if ( is_page('my-page') ) { ?> <!-- PASTE YOUR CODE HERE --> <?php } } add_action('wp_head', 'my_fb_pixel_tracking');
Make sure to paste in your code, and replace "my-page" with the slug of the WordPress page of your site you're implementing the tracking on.

@Envato Staff – I've read through the post, and I'm just a little confused on one aspect of the proposal. I feel like I saw two contracting lines in the article about this, and so I was just hoping for clarification.
So someone pays for this time-limited period of support, that time period expires, and now they no longer receive support communication from the author. Can they continue to download the item from ThemeForest, or does this also stop until they pay an additional fee?
On a personal note, I've been selling here a while. I have themes that have been around several years and I continue to keep them up-to-date. I don't abandon them, and buyers seem to like this. It also takes so much of my time and makes it harder for me to develop new products, which of course is all just part of the business.
With that, I have many customers I've come to know over the years that use my themes again and again for their clients, and have always been able to download the latest version. These people have been posting in my support for years and I am always there to help. I answer helpfully and politely, but as the years go on and my sales go down, I'd be lying if I said this doesn't frustrate me a bit on the inside.
From an author that has been living the "lifetime support and updates" for awhile now, I can tell you that I am really happy to see that ThemeForest is implementing these changes. It motivates me to invest more of my time in contributing new products to ThemeForest.
Are you running PHP 5.4?
I'm no expert on WooCommerce, but I try to provide people with basic integration for my themes. People seem to not really have any problems as long as the basic parts are in place.
So, the main thing you want to ensure is just that your theme is setup to not break on WooCommerce pages. In other words, you want your WooCommerce to fit in your theme's wrapper, which by default is essentially WooCommerce slapped between your header.php and footer.php—this default behavior obviously breaks in many themes.
Here's the article that lays out how you can do this with either using action hooks or creating a new template file in your theme:
http://docs.woothemes.com/document/third-party-custom-theme-compatibility/Also, make sure to see the very end of the article about declaring support. This is nice for buyers because they get scared when there's a message at the top of the screen that says "Your theme does not support WooCommerce."
From there, you'll have basic support. If you're looking to take things farther and make a true WooCommerce template, I think you'll just want to get WooCommerce installed in your dev environment and just start going through styling how all the different WooCommerce features look with your theme.
Hey guys, I put up a plugin yesterday using the latest Twitter API for free in the WP repo, if anyone wants to use it. There's no styling on the frontend; it just outputs an unordered list of Tweets you can style however you want in your theme.
http://wordpress.org/plugins/tweeple/And the tricky part, as you guys have talked about, is that the end-users have to setup their own developer application for their site to communicate with Twitter API. The plugin links to a video from the admin that attempts to walk them through this process.
https://vimeo.com/68603403And if you want to look at how I'm doing anything, the source is all up on github.
https://github.com/themeblvd/TweepleSo hopefully this all helps some of you.
@pixelentity Thanks for posting this. I don't surf the forums a lot any more, but I feel like it's rare to start reading a thread like this and see that it ends positively with resolution. As an author making the change to full GPL, this kind of advice (along with Chris's advice, as well) does help to make me feel little more comfortable about such a big transition.
lol never mind… Of course there is already a heated thread started about this days before. http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/100-gpl-author-exclusivity/92299
omarabid said
How does exclusivity work with GPL?
I was actually kind of wondering about this, too. So, if I'm an exclusive author and I sell my items as 100% GPL, does that mean I'm the only one that can't resell my work somewhere else? And the rest of world can?
Keep in mind this is just a general discussion forum. I think they mean for you to you post your question here in the discussion for that product:
http://themeforest.net/item/core-minimalist-photography-portfolio/discussion/240185There is actually a common cause for that I've seen several buyers run into. —There is this classic mistake people do when installing it a theme from ThemeForest where they install the entire ZIP package they downloaded as the theme. Usually this happens, but on some servers, it will actually allow the theme to install and seemingly work.
So, a common side effect of this is the issue under Appearance > Menus that you're describing; it happens because style.css is not in the root directory of the theme. Is it possible when you installed the theme you did not upload the correct folder of files? Your style.css file should be located like this on your server where you have WordPress installed:
Also, sometimes people upload the their correct theme.zip file and unzip it with cPanel or some other online file manager and inadvertently end up with:
This would also cause a similar issue in many cases.

RTA to use federal funds for $2.4 million customer service center
CORPUS CHRISTI - The Corpus Christi Regional Transportation Authority intends to use $500,000 in federal funds to help build a new customer service center across the street from City Hall, if the funding passes the U.S. Senate.
U.S. Rep. Solomon P. Ortiz, D-Corpus Christi, earmarked $1 million for two South Texas projects in the 2011 fiscal year transportation funding bill approved by the U.S. House of Representatives on July 29.
Ortiz earmarked $500,000 for the RTA and $500,000 for the Brownsville transit terminal. The bill will head to the U.S. Senate for approval, though it's not clear when, Ortiz spokesman Jose Borjon said.
If the bill is approved, the RTA will use the money to help pay for a new 8,000-square-foot customer service center at Staples and Leopard streets. Using money from a half-cent sales tax, the authority has bought three parcels of land along the east side of Staples, between Leopard and Mestina streets, on which to build the center.
Jorge Cruz-Aedo, RTA chief of administration, said it could cost $2.4 million to demolish existing structures on site and build the new two-story center. The RTA has submitted applications for federal grants to cover at least 80 percent of the cost of the project, Cruz-Aedo said. Those grants typically require a 20 percent local match. The city has offered to provide the RTA with development incentives, such as reducing fees for building permits.
RTA officials say they have outgrown the agency's existing information center at 1806 S. Alameda St. The center isn't big enough to screen applicants for the authority's on-demand transportation service for disabled people.
The new customer service center would provide space for those screenings and allow the RTA to expand the program, which will likely grow in demand as the population ages, RTA spokeswoman Karina Paris said.
Passengers also will be able to purchase bus passes, pick up bus schedules and plan trips at the customer service center. Bus passes are now sold at the information center, the administration building and some H-E-B grocery stores. The RTA also is upgrading its website to provide online purchasing of passes.
Cruz-Aedo said the RTA could begin demolishing the existing buildings on its property at Staples and Leopard as early as May when the lease ends for the sole remaining tenant on the property, Alma's Bail Bonds, 1129 Leopard St.
The RTA is negotiating with other property owners in the same block for land to expand the Staples Street Station, the authority's signature bus station, Cruz-Aedo said. That expansion is estimated to cost $1.8 million. The RTA has yet to apply for grants for the expansion, which is secondary in priority to the customer service center, Cruz-Aedo said.

Participants at the Symposium proposed a research initiative aimed at improving our understanding and ability to predict future climate and ecosystem changes in the West. In particular, they agreed that strategies were needed to encourage close collaboration among researchers from many scientific disciplines regarding the likely impacts that temperature and precipitation changes arising from both natural variability and greenhouse warming would have on western mountain ecosystems. Answering these questions will be critical in assessing their impacts on the hydrology of the West, and how those changes may be linked to ecosystem goods and services.
Participants agreed that a biennial science conference, MTNCLIM, would help to improve communications between disciplines and among scientists, managers, and policy makers, and would provide a forum for making concrete progress toward CIRMOUNT's goals.
Furthermore, four urgent challenges facing western North America climate science and policy communities were identified:
In confronting these challenges, CIRMOUNT seeks to provide a forum that is responsive to the needs and challenges of western society imposed by climate changes on mountain ecosystems. CIRMOUNT aims to:
CIRMOUNT aligns with the goals of the U.S. federal Climate Change Science Program (www.climatescience.gov/) and has been endorsed as a pilot regional project of the international Mountain Research Initiative (http://mri.scnatweb.ch). PROGRAM, ABSTRACTS, & TALK/POSTER PDFS MTNCLIM 2005 PROGRAM BOOK (identical to printed version at Chico) ABSTRACTS of talks and posters presented INVITED TALKS, CONTRIBUTED TALKS, AND POSTERS -- individual PDF files of full presentations The MTNCLIM 2005 conference included parts of four days, beginning with dinner and an evening program on March 1, and ending with lunch March 4.
The initial evening included a roundup of CIRMOUNT events, a review of the past year's mountain climate, and a keynote speaker (with another keynote address planned for mid-conference).
Two invited speaker special-session themes addressed:
I. Drought, Water Resources, and Ecosystems II. Climate Variability: Adaptation, Mitigation, and Restoration Sessions of contributed talks were interspersed with invited sessions, for a total of 21 contributed talks (20 mins each), and poster sessions addressed the following six themes:
Mountain Monitoring Networks Climate & Disturbance Regimes Water, Ice, and Water Resources Paleoecology & Paleoclimatology Climate Variability: Adaptation, Mitigation, and Restoration Urban/Social Interactions with Climate
WORKING GROUPS Initial Working Group Announcements (6 Working Groups)
Working Group sessions, which convened at MTNCLIM 2005, drew together action-oriented, product-driven participation groups. Work Groups were tasked with soliciting inputs and collaborations aimed at making concrete and ongoing progress toward specific CIRMOUNT goals. Working Groups include: Mountain-Based Hydrologic Observatories and Observations for the 21st Century Roger Bales, University of California, Merced, CA, & Mike Dettinger, USGS, La Jolla, CA HYDRO OBSERVE Working Group Discussion SUMMARY North American GLORIA (Global Observation Research Initiative in Alpine Environments), Connie Millar, USFS-PSW Research Station, Albany, CA, & Dan Fagre, USGS, Biological Resources Division, W Glacier, MT GLORIA Working Group Discussion SUMMARY Paleoclimatology & Water Resources Management: Time for an integrated paleo-resource?

Lauren Smart
Lauren Smart, Executive Director at Trucost is interviewed by Emerging Markets ESG for its weekly interview entitled, "Five Questions about SRI."
How would you define socially responsible investment (SRI)?
Lauren Smart: I actually prefer to talk about sustainable investment because I think the market has moved beyond the strict confines of "socially responsible investing" which is linked with ethical investing and negative screening of companies that don't meet ethical criteria. Sustainable investment, however, is much broader, more aligned with mainstream financial considerations and is where I think the market needs to be and has been moving towards in the last few years. This is more about long term financial security of a business which is only possible if the company manages itself in a sustainable manner. This means that companies and investors need to think about issues that may not have been considered financially material traditionally or in a very short-termist approach such as environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors. What we have seen over recent years though is that these "ESG" factors can be financially material and therefore should be considered as part of good financial analysis. For example, BP had a long history of accidents and bad environmental governance. Analysts that had taken notice of this may have recognized that there was a chance of a catastrophic accident, as we saw, and the financial repercussions of this for BP and its shareholders have been significant. Similarly, there have been a number of instances recently where companies have reported profit warning due to rising price of cotton (linked to drought). Having a better understanding of their resource dependencies and their exposure to price rises from factors such as water scarcity can help them reduce their profit risk. Forward thinking companies are better managing these risks and are therefore more future proofed, likely to be better able to exploit new markets, avoid the worst of commodity price volatility and should ultimately be a better investment in the long term.
Emerging Markets ESG: What distinguishes SRI from mainstream investment?
Lauren Smart: This links to my previous point. I think that we are seeing a convergence in sustainable investment and main stream investing. Some of the principles of sustainable investment are being considered by the mainstream even if they don't classify it as that. For example, most mainstream mining analysts would look favourably at a mining company that manages its resources well and has good social and health initiatives in the local communities it operates in because it is more likely to keep its license to operate, be more successful in competitive situations and have a healthier and more productive work force. There is still a long way to go though and there are many ESG indicators that mainstream analysts could be looking at that would add value to their investment analysis. There is also more that needs to be done from ESG research houses to make their analysis more relevant to main stream investors, to demonstrate the links to financial returns and enable them to integrate research into their valuation models. This is why Trucost translates all its environmental risk research into financial terms, to enable investors to understand what the potential financial implication might be to a company from their natural capital dependencies and integrate that into their valuation scenarios.
Emerging Markets ESG: Which extra-financial theme - environmental, social or governance - is the most challenging for emerging market companies to manage?
Lauren Smart: I think the challenges vary in different markets so it isn't possible to say one is more challenging than another. It also depends on the sector, but broadly there is a need for greater disclosure of ESG indicators from Emerging Markets companies as they still lag the rest of the world in terms of their disclosure, which presents an investment risk due to the black hole of knowledge. Of course, it is impossible to disclose ESG indicators unless the data is being routinely collected in a systematic way which usually requires some management accountability, so in itself to have disclosure on issues, indicates that they are on the agenda of the company and they are beginning to manage them. This is new to many of the companies in the emerging markets so can be difficult for them to start doing. Many of Trucost's clients therefore ask to use our modeled data for companies who do not disclose so they can understand what the potential scale of risk in their portfolio is and with which companies. Some investor clients also engage with high impact non disclosing companies to encourage them to improve their transparency. The quality of disclosures also needs to improve but there are some positive signs and some countries, like South Africa, are actually quite advanced in reporting due to initiatives by the JSE and things like the King Code of corporate governance principles... so it's not all negative!
Emerging Markets ESG: Which extra-financial theme - environmental, social or governance - is the most challenging for investors in emerging market companies to analyze?
Lauren Smart: A key trend we have identified is a desire from investors to understand the risk they may be exposed to through the supply chains of companies which are increasingly being moved to the emerging markets. This presents a set of risks that can be very difficult to unpick as there is often a lack of visibility in company supply chains, however, this is also where the greatest risk for a company and an investor frequently comes from. Sectors such as food and clothing production and retail are particularly exposed. We are working with clients, such as Puma, to understand their supply chain and their natural capital requirements such as cotton, wheat and leather and map those requirements to their suppliers' geographies and possibility of future price increases from factors such as water price rises. This insight enables companies to understand their supply chain and operational risk from natural resource requirements, identify and mange where in the world and from which suppliers their greatest environmental impacts are occurring, inform future business strategy such as sourcing and then define successful business models for a resource constrained future. It is evidence of this type of foresight that investors are looking for from companies.
Emerging Markets ESG: Emerging markets have a huge environmental footprint. What role do emerging markets play in Trucost's business, operations and strategy?
Lauren Smart: Emerging markets are a strategic priority for Trucost. We haveexpanded rapidly in the emerging markets recently and expect that to continue this year. We are working for clients in China, Brazil, South Africa, India and other parts of Asia and have local partners such as Syntao in China. We have also opened an office in Hong Kong from which we will service Asia. We also have a large number of clients who are based outside of emerging markets who are interested in understanding the environmental risk they are exposed to through their investments in the emerging markets so Trucost is working hard to further build out our data and research in the region. It an exciting area!

Top honours for Suma Josson's documentary In Search of our Lost Rice Seeds
The documentary In Search of our Lost Rice Seeds, directed by Suma Josson, has won the main prize in the People and Earth/Ecological Success Stories category at the EKOTOPFILM Film Festival held in Bratislava, Slovakia, recently. The award is given to 'films about individuals/groups who have had significant impact on environment protection and eco solutions'.
"This documentary travels through the work of some of the traditional paddy seed savers in the three states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. Through their voices, and the voices of scientists, farmers and environmentalists, the film traces the destruction of the agro-biodiversity as well as knowledge systems that has eventually led to the crisis faced by farmers in India," said Suma, an award-winning documentary filmmaker and writer, in a statement.
The documentary profiles farmers such as Raman Cheruvayal and Haridas from Wayanad, Boregowda from Mysore, Jayaram and Karikalan from Tamil Nadu and Nandish from Karnataka whose sustained efforts have been able to preserve many indigenous rice varieties. Nisha Josson edited the work, K.G. Jayan cranked the camera.
The documentary was made as part of 'Save Our Rice' campaign, a nation-wide network to sustain rice cultivation supported by Thanal in Kerala and the Pesticide Action Network-Asia. Save Our Rice Campaign is an umbrella organisation of groups such as Thanal, Create (Tamil Nadu), Sahaja Samrudha (Karnataka) and others.

This morning a crystal blue sky and bright sunshine greeted residents of Western Massachusetts.
And for most of us this week will begin like every other week as we send our children to school, and head off to work for business as usual.
That's obviously not the case for many of our friends and neighbors all over the Pioneer Valley.
I live in the East Forest Park section of Springfield, mere blocks from some of the hardest hit areas from last Wednesday's tornado.
My family took some time to walk around the hardest hit areas.
In fact on Saturday morning we bought lunch and delivered it to the workers who were clearing trees around the Cathedral High School area.
Just like a lot of our friends and neighbors, we were looking for something, anything we could do to help in the relief effort.
Another friend of mine who owns a national restoration company told me that many people hard hit by the tornado will soon find out that their homeowners insurance may not be adequate to cover the damage to their homes, only adding insult to injury in the long days ahead.
I heard good stories from residents who lost their homes this weekend. The Red Cross was out early Sunday morning delivering hot breakfasts to local residents.
I also got a call from a friend who asked for donations of food that could be dropped off at the Springfield JCC on Dickinson Street.
Rachel's Table was planning to take part in relief efforts. They always do a great job working in the local community.
And in what may turn out to be the biggest early success of the week, the Fredrick Harris School and Dryden Elementary are combining their schools for the remainder of the school year.
Dryden Elementary was destroyed by the tornado, leaving students there with no place to turn. That is until this morning.
Disasters like this bring out the best in people. What I saw in my neighborhood gave us all hope that together we'll all get through this.

Here are some unique in depth photos from the 1M Coupe, including the dash, suspension setup, and cloth interior.
Most if not all 1 Series M Coupe initial drive reviews are now in. We've compiled the list for your review and reference. The next set of reviews should be actual drives of the production version sometime next year after the 1M coupe's reveal at 2011 NAIAS in Detroit.
Autobild is reporting that a carbon fiber roof will be an available option on the upcoming 1 series M coupe, the first we have heard of this. The lack of denial by BMW insider Scott26 who chimed in on the topic makes us think this one potentially has some solid credibility.
Think the 1M Coupe has Alpine325ci's attention and interest? He has been prolifically rendering 1M coupes, and the latest (and best) render updates the front view of the 1-series M coupe to include the LCI (facelift) lights which have already been spied and confirmed to be featured on the 1M.
The 1M coupe is said to be coming in only three colors – Valencia Orange, Black, and Alpine White, the latter of which is previewed here by our Alpine325ci. Seen here is a rear rendering which follows the stunning front rendering from a few weeks back.
Car Enthusiast weighs in with their initial drive impressions, and yet positive review, full of potential for the 1M Coupe.
Another Review , And again they love it… Heres what they say: When you see the BMW 1-series M Coupé in the metal, it's hard not to be impressed. Even with the taped disguise of this pre-production prototype, it is clear that this is more than just a warmed-over version of BMW's price-leading two-door.
It's not beautiful. But the added visual muscle and ground-hugging stance of the new entry-level M-car raises expectations of the performance lurking within. It's a shot of attitude before you've even climbed … CONTINUED
M-Power.com just released an interview with Albert Biermann, Head of Development BMW M, giving away some more details on the 1 Series M Coupé
1M coupe first drive impressions continue to roll in. Edmunds was also part of the select group participating in the BMW 1M coupe prototype preliminary drives. Their initial impressions inside.
Select journalists were recently provided near production ready 1M coupes to test drive and review. Motortrend has now weighed in with their first drive impression, calling the 1M's high level of control and cornering a level that seems impossible outside the virtual world of Sony's Gran Turismo! Read on…
BMW may be uncovering the 1 Series M Coupe slowly, but Alpin325ci has accelerated the process with his amazing renders. His latest reveals what the 1M rear will likely resemble, based on the latest revealed part on the actual car.
Video to Part 2 of the 1M strip tease has been posted on M-power.com. The uncovering was conducted by the General Manager Marketing BMW France. Not much more is revealed, but it's interesting to see the environment in which the uncovering takes place. Looks like onlookers were free to photograph as they pleased.
The next stage of the BMW 1M Coupe tease has been officially revealed on the M-power.com site. Seen clearly in these official photos are parts of the rear bumper and fender. Also new in the photos are the camouflaged headlights, which cover the life cycle impulse (LCI or "facelift") headlights which were seen on the ActiveE photos we recently posted. There may be additional info or video posted shortly or sometime this week, so stay tuned.
More photos of the next stage of the 1M coupe reveal (coming tomorrow) have been posted. The LCI headlights are now exposed with some camouflage tape and the rear quarter bumper/fender is seen clearly in these photos.
An 1addicts member was recently in Munich when he spotted this 1M coupe. We've seen many camouflaged 1M coupes in the past but what makes this one interesting is its color – blue. Stay tuned as there's rumors that the next stage of the 1M reveal may be imminent.
New BMW 1M info and images have slowed, but Gerald Alvarez's renditions of the upcoming 1 series M have not. Here is his latest impression of the future BMW hot coupe.
David06M3 just returned from a visit to M-Division and brings some 1M news. The 1M will be a limited production of only 2,700 units, come in only 3 colors – Alpine White, Jet Black, Valencia Orange. Manual transmission only has also been confirmed. Image by Gerald Alvarez (of course).
Alpine325ci is at it again, this time producing an absolutely gorgeous wallpaper render of the upcoming 1M Coupe, set inside a tunnel at high speed. The 1M in the image looks spot on based on all that we've seen of the 1M Coupe so far!
