High court rules against dot-com investors
June 18, 2007
The justices ruled by a 7-1 margin that existing federal regulations are broad enough to police the market for public offerings--without invoking the heavy and uncertain hand of antitrust rules.
"In our view, this a pro-investor decision," said Stephen Shapiro, an attorney who represented the investment banks. The Securities and Exchange Commission "is very much a pro-investor agency, and they've tried to draw lines that they think are on balance."
Investors who suspect investment banks and stock issuers are engaging in misconduct still have other legal options after Monday's ruling in Credit Suisse Securities USA et al v. Glen Billing et al. Justice Stephen Breyer, in his majority opinion (PDF), noted that the SEC already has "considerable power to forbid, permit, encourage, discourage, tolerate, limit and otherwise regulate" virtually all that underwriting banks do, the justice wrote.
The case, which dates back to the heyday of last decade's high-tech boom, pitted 60 investors against the 10 leading investment banks, including Credit Suisse Securities USA, Citigroup Global Markets and J.P. Morgan Securities, and four mutual fund companies. The investors charged that the companies had conspired to engage in anticompetitive practices designed to inflate the prices of initial stock offerings of several hundred technology companies.
Their antitrust suit claims that those practices included requirements that investors purchase additional shares of the stock later at higher prices (a practice known as "laddering"), pay unusually high commissions or buy less desirable securities.
Even with the possibility of antitrust lawsuits thrown out, Christopher Lovell, the attorney representing the investors, said he was optimistic that at least some of his clients have a good case for claiming that the banks had violated securities laws.
His firm, New York-based Lovell Stewart Halebian, is the lead counsel for the class action suit, which was brought on behalf of purchasers of 829 securities who allegedly paid inflated charges and inflated prices between March 1997 and December 2000. A proposed $425 million settlement with J.P. Morgan in that case is still awaiting final court approval, Lovell said in a telephone interview on Monday.
Of those more than 800 cases, some 500 are based on federal and state antitrust claims and may not be able to proceed as a result of the high court's decision, Lovell said. But the remaining cases, which involve stock purchases of mostly larger companies like Red Hat and Priceline, allege securities law violations and will be able to proceed, he said.
"If the Supreme Court's reasoning (is correct), that there's an (effective) remedy under securities law, then ultimately no, for these investors and these securities, it will not be a setback," Lovell said.
The specter of triple damages
One big reason antitrust lawsuits would pose such a threat is the prospect of triple damages based on lost profits, litigation costs, attorney's fees and so on.
"If juries could make up rules in antitrust cases about how to do an IPO, then nobody could rely on the SEC's standards," said Shapiro, the attorney representing the banks. "The SEC was trying to draw sensitive standards that would encourage capital formation and protect investors. All of these things would be destroyed."
In a dissenting opinion, Justice Clarence Thomas said he believed securities laws do allow allegedly wronged investors to go after underwriters through antitrust law.
Darren Bush, a University of Houston law professor who co-authored a friend-of-the-court brief on behalf of the American Antitrust Institute, said in a telephone interview that he found the decision disappointing. (The AAI, a nonprofit think tank, favors more expansive antitrust laws.)
"I think when you're talking about the intersection of antitrust and any industry that's subject to regulation, that there is no conflict there, antitrust and regulation go hand in hand," he said.
That prospect has drawn sharp disagreement from the business community. A joint brief filed with the court by pro-business groups including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's legal arm and the Business Roundtable argued that bringing antitrust law into that equation would destabilize U.S. markets by making it riskier for underwriters to have conversations about how to promote and sell stocks.
The Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, which was also involved in the business community's brief, applauded the ruling on Monday, saying that if it had gone in the other direction, "the industry would have faced massive legal exposure and a major engine of American growth would have been unnecessarily damaged."

- Supreme Court gets economic
- A theme of the decision reached by the court relates to the economic implications of antitrust exposure on investment banks (aka "the economy")rather than enforcing existing law that protects citizens from the effects of large scale price manipulation (aka "monopoly"). No question the activities were illegal. See implications:

Live Blog: Celtics look to keep bringing the heat as they host the Heat
|04.01.12 at 1:47 pm ET
It's the Celtics and the Heat, and so it is worth watching. Right now, the Celtics are playing as well as they have this season, going 14-5 since the All-Star break and with six wins in their last seven contests. The Celtics have surged into first in the Atlantic Division with a 29-22 record, while the Heat are comfortably atop the Southeast Division with a 37-13 record that is the second best in the Eastern Conference.
In the only previous meeting between the two teams this year, Miami claimed a 115-107 win on its home court, though the Celtics were without Paul Pierce at the time. Sunday's contest marks the first of three games between the two teams over the final 15 games of the year.

Antidepressants: 1st Choice for Nerve Pain
July 19, 2005 -- Antidepressants should be used as an initial treatment for the frequently disabling pain caused by nerve tissue damage, according to a new review of research on the issue.
Researchers reviewed 50 studies of 19 different antidepressants in the treatment of pain caused by nerve tissue damage, also known as neuropathic pain. They found that the older class of antidepressants called tricyclics can provide significant pain relief. These include medications such as amitriptyline, imipramine, clomipramine, desipramine, and nortriptyline.
Anticonvulsant drugs were also shown to alleviate neuropathic pain.
Nerve pain from diabetes, called diabetic neuropathy, occurs after chronically elevated blood sugars damage nerves throughout the body. A complication of shingles called postherpetic neuralgia causes nerve pain for weeks to years after the shingles rash has disappeared. And some cancer treatments -- radiation and some chemotherapy drugs -- can also result in nerve damage.
There is limited evidence that newer antidepressants, called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), may also provide neuropathic pain relief. Researchers say more studies are needed before they can be recommended for this use. SSRIs include Prozac, Celexa, Luvox, Zoloft, and Paxil.
Pain caused by nerve tissue damage often occurs as a burning, tingling, or stabbing sensation.
Researchers say antidepressants have been used for neuropathic pain for many years, and this review of research shows that it is still probably the best approach to take. Antidepressants are thought to ease pain caused by nerve damage by dampening pain signals sent to the brain.
Anticonvulsant drugs, such as Neurontin, Tegretol, and Dilatin, originally developed to treat epilepsy, are also often used to treat nerve pain, but researchers say they should be reserved as a second line of treatment. It remains unclear how these drugs work to dampen nerve pain.
Older Antidepressants Still Work for Nerve Pain
In the review, which appears in the current issue of the Cochrane Library, researchers evaluated studies on antidepressants and anticonvulsant drugs in the treatment of neuropathic pain involving more than 2,500 people.
The results showed that two-thirds of people with pain caused by nerve damage who took tricyclic antidepressants obtained at least moderate pain relief. But about one-fifth found the side effects of antidepressant treatment, such as drowsiness, dry mouth, and blurred vision, unacceptable and stopped taking the drugs.

Anti-Aging Site Announces Review for Combating Aging Symptoms After Study Reveals Truth Behind Longevity Diet
Anti-aging website, AntiAgingProductsReviewed.com, is announcing new anti-aging reports so they can help women not only combat the signs of physical facial signs of aging but with other aging symptoms as well after a new report reveals the truth behind the popular longevity diet.
Houston, TX. (PRWEB) September 02, 2012
After reports showed that the ℠longevity diet´ a popular diet plan that includes drastic, low-calorie diets, may not help people live longer and prevent premature aging as promised, the anti aging website, http://antiagingproductsreviewed.com/ announced an offer for those looking to gain insight on the aging process. While the company´s primary focus is helping women with preventing the signs of skin aging, they are announcing new reports on other aging effects, including brain aging, diseases like Alzheimer´s and how to naturally help prevent the signs of aging, so women can get more detailed and comprehensive insight to the aging process.
The company´s new reports, inspired by the study from that National Institute on Aging which tested this ℠longevity´ starvation diet on monkeys, is aimed to help women fight all signs of aging, both mental and physical. The new reviews from http://antiagingproductsreviewed.com/ were inspired by the new study which found this drastic diet may not prevent certain aging symptoms like a weakened immune system, brain aging, cancer, diabetes, or heart issues, that often come with the aging process.
The skin care review site hopes that women who discover the findings of this report will take action in fighting both the signs of physical aging as well a using proven, healthy means to keep themselves healthy during the aging process. On the company´s website at http://antiagingproductsreviewed.com/, women can get professional and informative reviews on different anti-aging skincare products and get access to reports on preventing other types of aging as well. The company hopes the new report will encourage women who are concerned with all of the effects of aging to get the professional insight they need to stay healthy.
To find out more about the company and their new aging-centered reports, visit: http://antiagingproductsreviewed.com/.

We arrived at our villa at around 7pm last night, (1/10/2010) We had a few small issues with my Tom Tom as I had forgotten to update the USA maps, When we finally arrived at the villa we thought we had gone to the wrong place, it is in Windwood Bay and it is beautiful.
We had a quick look round and then unpacked, hubby and son went out to get some bits from the shop so we could have a drink and breakfast, I watched them drive away without lights on the rental car but they didn't see me waving at them, well I waited for them to return and guess what they got pulled by the local police, police where really nice and just said check lights when you are driving at night.
We had a lazy around and then went to bed, I was then up and wide awake at 3.30am this morning,
I went downstairs and sent emails to home, final at around 6ish everyone started to get up and showered, kids went in the pool, we had a visit from the villa agent and then popped along to see the virgin rep to collect our invite for harry potter, did a bit of shopping at Walmart then come home for lunch.
We then went to to downtown disney and had a look around the shop, it was a little damp when we arrived but by the time we were going back to the car the skies opened and we got very very wet. arrived home after a very careful drive in the rain. well the rain hadn't got to the villa, so we all got changed and warmed up, sat a listened to some music, checked emails and chilled.
Kids started saying they were hungery so we went to McDondalds for something to eat, rain finally arrived here.
well we are back at the villa now watching tv and playing games, tomorrow starts with Chef mickeys, then see what the weather is like as it might be another damp day.
Good job we are english and used to the rain.

Does a multi-GPU setup with one card interest you? You may want to take a look at AMD's latest high-end offering, the HD 3870 X2. We are taking a look at ASUS' version of the card which features a fantastic bundle, including an HDMI adapter and Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts.
Welcome to the most loved and hated benchmark on the planet, Futuremark's 3DMark 06. This benchmark was launched back in January of 2006, so it's tests are not exactly up to par with today's graphic cards, but it's still a decent way to gauge how today's cards scale with each other. The next version of 3DMark, Vantage, will be a complete revamp of the benchmark we know today and will no doubt make our computers feel useless once it's released.
Because the X2 excels at higher resolutions, we don't expect to gain much from our test at default settings, but as we'll see, when the resolution is changed to 2560×1600, that's where differences become more noticeable.
As was expected, the X2 topped the chart here by a rather healthy margin. The 8800GTS 512 falls ever so slightly behind. It goes without saying, however, if the GTS 512 was in a dual-GPU mode like the 3870 X2, the chart would look a little different.
Sure enough, the 3870 X2 flexes it's huge arms here, with rather drastic gains when the resolution is pushed to the max, beating the 8800GTS 512 by a full 43% in our overall, 40% with Shader 2.0 and a staggering 60% in the Shader 3.0 tests.
On the next page, I'll take a brief look at power consumption and I'll wrap up with my final thoughts.

On top of that the added ceiling height isn't even necessary. The added floorspace was done to accommodate having multiple players in an area, but players don't stand on top of each other so there's no reason you need that much headroom.
If I could use the Defiant type bridges for all of my ships I would in a Heartbeat, cause they're the ONLY ones that have a reasonable size/feel to them.

Jimmy Bullard says Fulham's fans have been first class during their relegation battle.
The popular midfielder told fulhamfc.com: "It's difficult as a player to keep asking the fans to give 100%, because they have been absolutely awesome this season.
"There've been regular full houses and so much noise during matches, yet we haven't given them the results they deserve, and we're aware of that.
"I know I always mention their support, but you cannot over-emphasise the extra boost it can give you as a player. I walked off the pitch after the Everton game with some of the other lads and it was like 'how awesome were the fans today?!'
"It's a big club, Fulham Football Club, and everyone knows that. This team means a lot to the supporters and I think the size of the Club and the support it has is one of the main reasons why I chose to move here."

Oil prices mixed amid Syria focus
popular .
SINGAPORE – Oil prices were mixed in Asian trade Friday as dealers monitor diplomatic efforts to make Syria give up its chemical weapons and avert a US-led military attack, analysts said.
New York's main contract, West Texas Intermediate for delivery in October, eased three cents to $108.57 a barrel and Brent North Sea crude for October rose 15 cents to $112.78.
"Investors remain cautious over the diplomatic efforts to get Syria to surrender its chemical weapons," Teoh Say Hwa, head of investment at Phillip Futures in Singapore, said in a note.
The Assad regime on Thursday announced it would sign up to the global convention banning chemical weapons following a Russian proposal to put its toxic arsenal under international control.
The US Russia talks have put off a planned US-led attack on Damascus for an alleged sarin gas attack by Assad forces last month that left hundreds of Syrians dead. Assad blames opposition rebels for the attack.
Oil prices were also supported by fresh reports of supply disruptions in crude exporter Libya after the country's National Oil Corporation on Thursday declared force majeure on three ports.
Libyan oil exports plunged in August by more than 70 percent after protesters, including policemen and border guards, forced export terminals to shut in a row over pay.

Parent page
Hi Ozuzanna!
My name is Jamie - I'm on the Community team over here at Wikia. I'm reaching out today to see if it's okay if we set up a "Parent Page" on the The Hannah Montana Wiki. Also, if you are okay with it, do you and the other admin have any interest in helping us fill it out?
Here is a Parent Page example from The Hunger Games Wiki to give you an idea of what the page entails. Essentially, it's a guide for parents about the age range for different wikis.
Let me know if you have any questions! We are planning to start setting up the pages over the next couple weeks or so. Thanks so much!
- Sure, go ahead - I don't have any objections (I've dealt with such pages on another wiki). – Ozuzanna 22:56, July 29, 2014 (UTC)
- Great! Thank you. Shall we fill it out ourselves? We're happy to do so. Alwaysmore2hear (talk)

Homo Mysterious
Evolutionary Puzzles of Human Nature
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
moreFor all that science knows about the living world, notes David P. Barash, there are even more things that we don't know, genuine evolutionary mysteries that perplex the best minds in biology. Paradoxically, many of these mysteries are very close to home, involving some of the most personal aspects of being human.Homo Mysterious examines a number of these evolutionary mysteries, exploring things that we don't yet know about ourselves, laying out the best current hypotheses, and pointing toward insights that scientists are just beginning to glimpse. Why do women experience orgasm? Why do men have a shorter lifespan than women? Why does homosexuality exist? Why does religion exist in virtually every culture? Why do we have a fondness for the arts? Why do we have such large brains? And why does consciousness exist? Readers are plunged into an ocean of unknowns--the blank spots on the human evolutionary map, the terra incognita of our own species--and are introduced to the major hypotheses that currently occupy scientists who are attempting to unravel each puzzle (including some solutions proposed here for the first time). Throughout the book, readers are invited to share the thrill of science at its cutting edge, a place where we know what we don't know, and, moreover, where we know enough to come up with some compelling and seductive explanations.Homo Mysterious is a guide to creative thought and future explorations, based on the best, most current thinking by evolutionary scientists. It captures the allure of the "not-yet-known" for those interested in stretching their scientific imaginations. less

The 2009 Inc. 500: Top 10 Asian-Run Companies
Ken Kuang, President, Torrey Hills Technologies, No. 188
Ken Kuang first came to the U.S. from China at age 24 for a research position at Clarkson University in New York state. Growing up in a small rural village in the Jiangxi province in China, where his parents were of a low socioeconomic status, Kuang says he always planned to work hard in the U.S. in order to make his parents proud. He pursued a career in the microelectronics industry at a company called Kyocera America, working his way up to department manager. He quit his job in 2004 to pursue his entrepreneurial dream of starting his own business, forming Torrey Hills Technologies shortly thereafter.

38 die in mental hospital fire outside Moscow
Friday - 4/26/2013, 11:52pm EDT
Associated Press
MOSCOW (AP) -- The patients of the small psychiatric hospital in a Russian village were asleep or under sedation as the clock neared 2 a.m. The windows were barred and the nearest firefighters were miles away, with some impeded by rough roads and others not able to cross a nearby canal.
When a blaze broke out and spread through the wooden rafters, all of this made for a prescription for tragedy: 38 people died and only three escaped.
The one-story brick-and-wood hospital building that caught fire long before dawn Friday housed patients with severe mental disorders, Health Ministry officials said. The fire started in a wooden annex, emergency authorities said, and then spread to the 1950s main brick building, which had wooden beams.
Health Minister Veronika Skvortsova said half of the patients took sedatives at night. She insisted the patients weren't tied to their beds and were not given any medication that would leave them unconscious and unable to escape.
At least 29 of the dead were burned alive, federal Investigative Committee spokeswoman Irina Gumennaya said.
Fire trucks took about an hour to reach the scene, coming from a town 50 kilometers (30 miles) away and struggling over roads in poor condition. Firefighters from a slightly nearer town also were dispatched, but found that a ferry crossing a canal near the hospital was out of service because of high water.
Investigators said the 38 dead included 36 patients and two doctors. They said a nurse managed to escape and save one patient, while another patient got out on his own. The Emergencies Ministry also posted a list of the patients indicating they ranged in age from 20 to 76. Gumennaya told Russian news agencies that most of the people died in their beds.
Moscow region Governor Andrei Vorobyev said some of the hospital windows were barred. Gumennaya cited the surviving nurse as saying that the doors inside the hospital weren't locked.
Investigators said they are looking at violations of fire regulations and a short circuit as possible causes for the blaze that engulfed the hospital in the Ramensky settlement, about 85 kilometers (50 miles) north of Moscow.
Vorobyev told Russian state television that the fire alarm seems to have worked, but the fire spread too quickly.
Skvortsova told state TV the hospital had all the necessary fire equipment, but conceded mental hospitals should be better equipped for emergencies than the current law requires.
President Vladimir Putin called for a thorough investigation into the deadly fire and asked regional authorities to pay more attention to safety regulations.
Russia has a poor fire safety record, with about 12,000 deaths reported in 2012. By comparison, the U.S., with a population double Russia's, recorded around 3,000 fire deaths in 2011.
A 2006 fire at a drug treatment facility with barred windows and locked doors in Moscow killed 45. In one of the most high-profile cases of negligence, more than 150 people died in a nightclub in the city of Perm after a pyrotechnic show ignited a wooden ceiling.

How to Install the Window Seal on a VW Bug Window

In this short tip I show you how to install the window seal and chrome molding onto your Bug Windows.

Grab video code:
Hey! Guys Chris again form ClassicVWbugs.com and in today's tip again they asks this a question is how to install your window seals, around your windows and also how to install the chrome molding that goes into the seal. I am going to show you that here, in this short video.
But first, what you want to do is lineup the seal where it's huge and center that on the bottom or the top, middle of the window. We are using West Coast Metric seals here, I have much success with these seals, they are nice and soft and they work very well, I do recommend them, I don't recommend the Brazilian's seals or any other cheaper seals that are on the market, they are just kind of hard to work with.
So like I said, you want to find the spot on the seal that would go on the window. It's usually a flat section and the outer flap is what faces outward. Now 64 and earlier bugs they had a flat windshield, so it really doesn't matter which side you put the seal on, 65 and later the windshields actually had a slight bend in it. But you should be able to tell which way the shield should go on at that point.
But usually start in the corners, like I am doing here. I like to do that first because it just makes life a little bit easier as you put the shield around the window. Basically you just kind of have to get that space in there, opened and just push that glass and seal on, around the perimeter and then as you get the corners and you could start working the whole way around the window, as I am doing it here. It's just kind of wiggle in it and sometimes, opening it and just tapping it in to secure it in place.
Let me show a close up a bit here, it looks little better. So you just see how I am prying it down, and prying it up and then trying to, just make that gap in the seal. Open up a bit, so you could just slide it on to the glass. Once you get the hang of it, it goes on pretty quickly. I like to do it in the sun, it's simply because the sun heats up the seal nice and makes it to slide on to the glass a lot better.
If you are not in the sun, you could always use a hair dryer to heat up the seal. You see where the fuse section is, I have it right down in the middle, okay. So then you just kind of secure everything in place, make sure the seal is not off-centered in any way or lopsided at all, you want it to be nice and flush and flat.
Okay, next thing we are going to put the chrome into the seals now, where you could see here as you just line up the chrome to go into the seal. Sometimes some of the chrome that you get in is not set to the size of the parameter on the seal, so you got to have to open it up a little bit and just be careful you don't want to crimp the chrome, just want to open up and you want to start with your corners, first, like I do here.
Basically, you want to pull back the flap on the seal and push that chrome in, not too force, but you could bend the chrome. I used to use a little screwdriver to punch it in and then on the inside part of the flap you pry it out, so it actually lips around the whole chrome. Sometimes you might get the outside lip on but then the inside lip is not secured around the chrome properly.
But here is the best way to put the chrome in, use some WD-40 or you could use silicon or soap even, and I am just kind of pushing the lubricant in the groove, where you could also use the butter knife to kind of push it into the groove and then basically you just start pushing the chrome into the gap there and that was basically it.
It's really not all that difficult, sometimes you might have a little bit of trouble but for the most part if you have a lubricant, it should slide in a right and then once you go all the way around the windows, all you got to get the final clips that come in your chrome package and you want to slide that open the ends there and that basically completes the chrome around the window, and you just got to push that into seal and then you are pretty much good to go.
Okay, now basically here for the quarter windows, same thing you go around the whole parameter and their clips and on the straight part. So that's basically it, if you have got any questions email@example.com.

According to Songs and Soundtracks, a Ghost Worked on the New Instrumental Album By The G-Man
LOS ANGELES, July 9 /PRNewswire/ — When Scott G began to mix The G-Man's new album, "Audio Takes a Stand" (http://www.audiotakesastand.com/) produced by Songs and Soundtracks, he was shocked to see that an unseen entity had completed it for him.
*(PHOTO Link: Send2Press.com/mediaboom/08-0709-AudioTAS_72dpi.jpg) *(Photo Caption: Cover, Audio Takes a Stand.)
"I started to assign levels to the separate tracks of bass, drums, keyboards and guitars — the process known as mixing — but it had already been done," G states. "It's my studio, my computers, and I'm the only one with the password, so the gear has a mind of its own or the spirit of the little boy on the cover of the album did the mixing for me."
Not only were volume levels and sonic frequencies established for each song, the amount of each instrument in the left and right channels was also set. "The ghost created a nice stereo mix," G says.
Each of the 12 songs on "Audio Takes a Stand" is a multi-layered instrumental that uses a combination of rock, dance and ambient sounds to create subliminal reactions from listeners. Described as "sonic applications of hypnotic euphoria," the album is the culmination of a 3-album journey that began with "Crazed + Dazed" and continued with "Burning Man Soundscapes."
Songs range from the Pink Floyd-influenced "Angels Behind Your Eyes," to the Zappaesque "Then Comes the Strange."
There are videos for 4 of the album's songs by the FookMovie production company: "Free Nude Photos,""Beep Logic,""Dreams on the March," and "Go West on East Avenue." To view the "Beep Logic" video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATjLu9Q8hwE
"Audio Takes a Stand" and other albums by The G-Man are available on iTunes.

Well-produced and informative reporting.
I was interested to watch this film when I read the description but once the misconceptions were being spewed about tenure, it lost me. Tenure is GRANTED to teachers by administrators, it is not a guarantee. Tenure is DUE PROCESS to protect teachers just like we each have due process as U.S. citizens. Blaming tenure is like blaming Common Core, they are good ideas but they way they have been used has been mismanaged. It's simple.
Am glad this issue is attracting the attention of documentary makers. The day documentaries like this feature in mass media will be a very good day indeed.
Fabulous series of films. Thought provoking. So many truths. Film quality: A But the subjects need point-counterpoint. Never is it solely black or white. Not one of these films reflect the reality at my fabulous, struggling school with its fabulous struggling children and their families. Not one film shows any classroom behavior disruption. Not one film acknowledged classrooms with IQ ranges of 60-110 in the same room and children ages 11-15 in the same room. Schools where parents walk into classrooms and cuss out teachers and students and try to start fights with little or no consequence. Where a teacher who redirects a student with a hand on the back can get suspended for two months but a student who spits on a teacher or shoves the teacher gets a two-day suspension. Where 7 parents out of a school of 450 students show up for Back to School Night. Where a 5-year-old witnesses her mother raped three times the night before. Where an 8-year-old asks for him and his brothers to be sent to foster care and not be sent home to be beaten yet another day. Where a 10-year-old is up most of every night to feed, diaper, and rock back to sleep his toddler brother and new infant sibling. And we expect these children to focus on lessons and care? Are there poor quality teachers? Absolutely. Are there poor quality principals and administrators. Absolutely. Is there a on-solution-fixes-all answer? Absolutely not. It's a blame game to say it's all the parent's fault. It's a blame game to say it's all the student's fault. It's a blame game to say it's all the teacher's fault. It's a blame game to say it's all the administration's fault. But I do think it starts with Empowerment and Accountability. Empower the classroom teachers with support and resources and respect and accountability. Empower the parents with support and resources and respect and accountability. Empower the principals with support and resources and respect and accountability.
Very Informative good film
Are people giving this "film" a grade of 'A' for content or actual film making? This film is ridiculous as it pertains to content. Even the arguments against "bad" teachers in the film speak towards the structural issues of the metrics we use to evaluate them and the processes that have been created to remove them. So, lets fix the system, not focus on the rhetoric of those that are able to game the system.
If Michelle Rhee is involved, the credibility of this movie is ruined. Her studies and statistics have been discredited, her proteges disgraced, and her movement tied to for-profit institutions. This film still plays the "blame game" but against teachers. I vote to leave this film on snag but for watchers to keep an open mind.

The Grant Carson band will have some good friends on hand for their 26th anniversary.
On April 6 the band will be hosting its 26th anniversary concert at the Roselawn Centre in Port Colborne. The show is titled "Johnny Cash and Hank Williams: On the Lost Highway" and will feature the Grant Carson Band and guest Angela Siracusa playing alongside Marty Allen and Steve Ketchen. It promises to offer a variety of country classic and originals.
"They're fun. They've been around forever. I'm humbled to have been asked," said Siracusa, a Toronto native who recently moved to the Niagara region after spending six years going back and forth to Nashville.
"I learned what I needed to learn (in Nashville) and now I can come back and put what I learned into play," she said, comparing her time in Nashville to a person going to university. She spent the time learning the country music industry, a genre of music she's loved her entire life, ever since growing up with her mom playing Anne Murray and Tommy Hunter in the house all the time.
Siracusa keeps busy in the entertainment business. She gave up her former career in marketing at an engineering firm in 2006 to focus full time on music.
"I felt like the time was now. I felt like I really wanted to go back to my passion," she said.
And now, to stay successful in the business, she said she likes to keep as many "irons in the fire" as possible.
Siracusa works with a number of fellow musicians, saying she has about nine people she works with in various collaborations. It's that spontaneity that Siracusa feeds off of.
"Each one of them brings something different to the table," she said.
Now, in addition to her own music, Siracusa runs an open mic night out of The Duck in St. Catharines every Sunday night. She also wrote a song for the Niagara IceDogs during their playoff run last year.
She provided some music for producers of a TV documentary that will likely be shown at the Toronto International Film Festival and is currently writing for a French magazine called Dreamwest.
Siracusa expects to do a lot of tributes at the show, but also has a litany of originals from which she can draw.
For Allen, the show will be a return to the man in black himself, Johnny Cash. Allen used to do Johnny Cash tribute shows but hasn't done many in recent years.
"I was always a big fan of Cash," he said.
One of the first songs he learned as a musician was Folsom Prison Blues, and now can play roughly 45 of Cash's songs.
Allen has a passion for the legendary Sun Records and said most of his favourite Johnny Cash songs were his early works with Sun Records. Songs like Folsom Prison Blues and I Walk the Line are among Allen's favourites.
But at the Grant Carson anniversary show, Allen said he plans to also mix in some of his later stuff, like Hurt.
It's the simplicity of Cash's music that drew in Allen.
"An upright bass, electric guitar and Johnny on acoustic. That's what I always liked about his sound," he said.
The show kicks off on April 6 at 7 p.m. Doors open at 6:30. Tickets are $22.50 apiece and can be purchased by calling the Roselawn box office at 905-834-7572.

Gaza rocket hits Israel as humanitarian lull ends
JERUSALEM Palestinian militants fired a rocket at Israel on Thursday just as a five-hour U.N. humanitarian cease-fire expired, the Israeli military said.
Gaza residents had crowded banks, vegetable markets and shops as they took advantage of the first respite from 10 days of fierce fighting.
The military says the rocket struck the city of Ashkelon at precisely 3 p.m. (1200 GMT, 8 a.m. EDT) as the pause in military activity ended.
No injuries were reported. Gaza militants also fired three mortar shells toward Israel after the truce took effect at 10 a.m. Israel has not responded yet to either incident though it vowed to strike hard if fire continued.
Gaza City, a virtual ghost town for the past 10 days, returned to apparent normalcy within minutes of the start of the truce. Streets were jammed, motorists honked horns and Hamas police directed traffic at busy intersections.
Crowds of hundreds formed outside banks, with people jostling and shouting to get to ATM machines. In an outdoor market, shoppers filled plastic bags with fruit, vegetables and freshly slaughtered chickens.
The rush to restock signaled that Gaza residents don't expect a quick end to the fighting. Egypt renewed cease-fire efforts after its initial attempt collapsed earlier in the week, but the demands of Israel and Hamas remain far apart.
"'The situation is likely to get worse because there is no clear way out of it," said Moussa Amran, 43, a money changer in central Gaza City.
Israel accepted Egypt's initial call earlier this week to halt all hostilities, but Hamas rejected the idea because it does not want to return to the situation before the outbreak of fighting. An intensified Egyptian border blockade of Gaza over the past year, combined with long-running Israeli restrictions on access, had severely weakened the Islamic militant group.
Egypt's Foreign Minister Sameh Shukri insisted in an interview with The Associated Press that the cease-fire deal was still alive and expressed frustration that "Palestinian factions" -- a clear reference to Hamas -- had not agreed to it.
Hamas' agreement is crucial to any such truce, but its demand that the blockade be eased significantly is likely to be rejected by Israel and Egypt because it would strengthen the group's hold on Gaza, where it seized power in 2007.
Thursday's temporary truce, brokered by the United Nations, came after Israel carried out nearly 2,000 air strikes on Gaza over 10 days and Hamas fired more than 1,300 rockets into Israel, reaching the country's economic and cultural heartland. The cross-border fighting has so far killed more than 230 Palestinians and an Israeli, according to officials.
Fighting continued early Thursday in the lead-up to the cease-fire, with the military saying it foiled an attack by 13 militants who sneaked into Israel through a tunnel from Gaza. Israeli aircraft struck the fighters at the mouth of the tunnel some 250 meters (820 feet) inside Israel, near a kibbutz.
Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, a military spokesman, said the military believed at least one militant was killed in the strike and that the remaining fighters appeared to have returned to Gaza through the tunnel.

LAWRENCEVILLE -- With the frost on the windows, some seniors need help to keep themselves warm inside.
For the second year, Gwinnett County Senior Services and the county fire department are working together on Project AWARE (Added Warmth Assistance for Residences of our Elderly), collecting electric portable heaters.
"I'm really glad this service is available. It has helped us out a lot," said Irene Madden, of Snellville, who was thankful to receive a heater.
New portable electric heaters can be dropped off at any Gwinnett County fire station. The heaters will be personally distributed to seniors in need, along with a smoke detector and information on fire safety, a press release said.
"There are seniors that are dealing with so many issues, especially finances. Project AWARE is helping to keep our seniors warm without hurting their wallets," said Adrienne Noble, Gwinnett Senior Services information and referral specialist.
For more information on Project AWARE, call Melanie Miller (GCSS) at 770-822-8842 or e-mail her at firstname.lastname@example.com.
To make a monetary donation, visit www.fogcss.com or send a check to the service's nonprofit partner, Friends of Gwinnett County Senior Services, P.O. Box 3900025, Snellville, GA 30039.

In the Orthodox Eastern churches, ordinary parish clergy are married, but monks, nuns, and bishops are celibates. In the West, celibacy was common among the parish clergy beginning the 3d cent.; as time passed, the Holy See became adamant in opposing the marriage of the secular clergy (see orders, holy). By the early Middle Ages, marriage of the clergy had fallen into disrepute; church reformers aimed at concubinage and violations of the laws of chastity rather than of marriage. In the 12th cent. the most stringent laws were enacted, and by the time of the Reformation popular opinion tolerated neither concubinage nor marriage in the clergy. Protestantism rejected voluntary celibacy as an ideal.
The Roman Catholic Church in the Roman rite allows no sacerdotal marriage, but the clergy of Eastern rites united with the Holy See are often married before ordination. Some married priests from other religions or rites have converted to Catholicism and been accepted, but not all dioceses have permitted these priests to practice. Although recent popes and various national groupings of bishops have insisted on the retention of celibacy for priests, there has been considerable pressure in the United States and Europe in support of voluntary marriage for the clergy. A standard defense of the Western discipline of celibacy for parish priests is that marriage would prevent the priest from giving his complete attention to his parish; critics complain that unmarried clergy are unfit to give counsel on marital and sexual problems. Since the Second Vatican Council, the Roman Catholic Church has restored the office of deacon to a prominent place in the ministry and accepts married men into it.
The question of celibacy is handled differently by various Christian authorities.
The Bible teaches celibacy to be honorable, but not required. The Apostle Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 7, "Now concerning the matters about which you wrote: 'It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman.' But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband." (verses 1-2); "I wish that all were as I myself am. But each has his own gift from God, one of one kind and one of another. To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single as I am. But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion." (verses 7-9); "I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to please the Lord. But the married man is anxious about worldly things, how to please his wife, and his interests are divided. And the unmarried or betrothed woman is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit. But the married woman is anxious about worldly things, how to please her husband. I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord." (verses 32-35)
Catholics understand celibacy to be a reflection of life in Heaven, and a source of detachment from the material world, which aids in one's relationship with God. Catholic priests are called to be espoused to the Church itself, and espoused to God, without overwhelming, exclusive commitments interfering with the relationship. Catholics understand celibacy as the calling of some, but not of all.
A few Christian sects even advocated celibacy as a better way of life for everyone. These groups included the following: The Shakers, The Harmony Society, and The Ephrata Cloister. These groups no longer exist.

Recently Design and Detail was able to begin working along the talented marketing department of Sun Solar and Solar City. I want to give them a shout out. We loved working along side them, and wish them the best of luck.
Picking A Good Solar Panel Company In The Orlando Area
If you're an Orlando homeowner who wants to convert some of Florida's famous sunshine into valuable electrical power, it's high time you took a look at residential solar systems. Thanks to decades of interest and favorable incentives provided by both the state of Florida and the federal government, the Orlando area has several good solar companies for you to work with.
What Solar Companies Do For You
While every Florida panel installed by Sun Solar company offers its own unique menu of services, there are certain common features that you'll need from your solar company no matter what your circumstances are. Solar companies take full responsibility for designing your solar system. They use their expertise to determine the best location for your solar panels and the total size of the system that will fit on your roof. Your solar company will also select the best equipment to strike an effective balance between efficiency, affordability, and reliability.
Assess Your Resources – Leasing Vs. Buying
Like many states, Florida provides a favorable incentive structure for solar panel installation that has led many solar companies to offer leasing options in addition to traditional sales. Depending on your financial resources, leasing solar panels may be a more effective option than buying them. In a solar lease, your solar company retains ownership of the equipment they install on your home. They charge you a monthly fee for operating it, and in exchange you get to use all of the power it generates – or sell it to your local utility company. This presents a viable way to get solar panels on your home with minimal up-front expense. Buying your system outright does free you from the need to pay an ongoing leasing fee, though, which increases the overall impact your solar system has on your energy costs.
Work With Professionals – Judging Expertise
Not all solar companies are created equal! The cheapest option is not always the best, especially in the long term. In order to minimize expenses, a lot of solar panel companies skimp on their labor costs for panel installation. Given that solar systems are fairly delicate and that installing them involves drilling dozens of hole in your roof, this is not a job you want to entrust to poorly-trained work crews! (Solar leasing companies have a bad reputation for using particularly shoddy installation crews.) Verify the training and certification of the workers who'll be installing your solar panels. Make sure that qualified experts will be on-site during your installation – many larger solar companies have multiple crews being "supervised" by a single solar energy specialist.
Providing For Maintenance Over Time
Whether you lease from our Corona CA location or buy them, they'll need regular maintenance to deliver a lifetime of effective service. This is one area where leasing offers you a significant advantage, as a leasing company is better motivated to keep your system in good working order — after all, it's still technically their equipment! If you purchase your solar system outright, you'll need to arrange for maintenance and cleaning services from trained professionals. Even if you never need major repair work, your system will at a minimum require regular cleaning. (The efficiency of solar panels drops quickly when dust, leaves, and other debris builds up on them.)
The solar company that you choose to work with makes a huge difference in how good your overall experience with solar power is going to be. Do your homework ahead of time and make sure you rely on experienced professionals to install and service your solar panels!
