On March 14, 2013, the European data protection regulators (the Article 29 Working Party, or WP) issued a 30-page opinion addressing how mobile apps should comply with EU data protection law (the Opinion). The main focus of the Opinion is on app developers, but it also describes the obligations of other parties involved in the development and distribution of apps, such as app stores, operating system and device manufacturers, and third-party advertising providers.
While the WP opinions are not binding, they give a clear indication of how data protection authorities in the EU (DPAs) would interpret their national laws and therefore should be taken into account when developing new apps targeted at EU individuals. According to the Opinion, the use of apps entails a number of risks such as a lack of transparency and awareness with regard to the type of processing an app may undertake, a lack of meaningful consent from individuals, poor data security measures, and a high degree of fragmentation among the various players in the app ecosystem.1 To address these risks, the WP provides a number of recommendations that we have summarized below.
1. EU Data Protection Law Applies to Any App Targeted at EU Users
The WP takes the view that EU data protection law applies not only to entities with an establishment in the EU processing personal data via an app, but also to any entity located outside the EU collecting personal data of individuals located in the EU via an app, regardless of the location of the app developer or the app store. According to the WP, targeting users within the EU and collecting personal data via an app is sufficient to trigger the application of the whole set of EU data protection requirements.
Under EU data protection law, the concept of "personal data" is interpreted extremely broadly. In the app context, this includes location, contacts, unique device identifier (e.g., IMEI, IMSI, UDID, and mobile phone numbers), identity of the user of the phone, credit card and payment data, SMS, browsing history, email, social-network authentication credentials, pictures, videos, and biometrics.
In addition, the cookies consent requirements of the EU e-Privacy Directive apply to any entity that reads or accesses information on mobile devices of users located in the EU, wherever their location may be.
2. Roles and Responsibilities of Players in the App Ecosystem
The Opinion identifies the various players involved in the app ecosystem and defines their roles and responsibilities.
3. User Consent as a Cornerstone of App Compliance
According to the WP, the principal legal basis for processing personal data in the context of apps is consent. However, consent must meet a number of requirements to comply with EU data protection law. In particular, it must be:
Furthermore, users have the right to withdraw their consent at any time and should be provided with the ability to do so in a simple way (e.g., via an option to uninstall the app and have all data deleted).
4. Additional Guidelines for App Developers
In addition to the consent requirement described above, the WP provides comprehensive guidance on how to comply with the EU data protection principles. It emphasizes the concept of privacy by design (e.g., app developers should take this guidance into account at an early stage) and encourages the various players in the app ecosystem to work together to ensure compliance during the app's entire lifecycle. We have listed below some of the main learnings from the Opinion.
5. Increased Global Scrutiny
The Opinion follows a trend of increased scrutiny of the mobile app ecosystem by both EU and U.S. regulators. Just last month, the FTC issued a report on mobile privacy disclosures containing recommendations for app platforms, operating system providers, app developers, ad networks, and other third parties on how to improve privacy disclosures for consumers using mobile devices.6 The FTC also released two reports last year that surveyed mobile apps for children and criticized current disclosure practices. The FTC has stepped up enforcement in the mobile space as well, recently entering into consent decrees with handset manufacturer HTC over alleged security concerns and mobile developer Path over alleged privacy misrepresentations and the collection of children's personal information.7 The FTC's demonstrated interest in mobile privacy and security, along with the WP's issuance of the Opinion, shows that entities in the mobile app ecosystem need to be aware of the increased scrutiny they may face both at home and abroad.
Mobile apps are definitely on the radar of EU regulators. According to the Opinion, every entity involved in the app ecosystem and targeting EU individuals is subject to the whole set of EU data protection obligations, regardless of location. Although one can argue over some of the Opinion's points, it is clear that it demonstrates the interest of EU regulators in the mobile app field and gives a good indication of how EU regulators would apply EU data protection principles in a particular case. Therefore, mobile app providers targeting EU individuals should review their practices in light of EU data protection law and assess how they can comply with those requirements.

HP and Dell notebook died on me, will this happen to my MBA 2012 13"?
In 2006 I bought a low end basic HP notebook ($1000) Played World of Warcraft heavily on that until it broke down in February 2008. The screen wouldn't turn on, I couldn't even see the Windows is starting screen etc etc. I was able to press the power and hear the notebook turning on, but the screen was completely black.
Then in March 2008 I bought a Dell xps 1530 laptop ($1500). It was a big upgrade for me and definitely a step up over my Hp notebook. I played WoW for 2 years before quitting in late 2009.
Since then I've been using the computer to stream movies online, download stuff, browse online, and do basic lightroom and video editing for upload to youtube.
Now this morning my dell won't turn on anymore, the same exact symptoms as my HP notebook I press the power button, hear the fan and harddrive noise, but the screen is completely black. HP lasted me a good 18 months. Dell lasted me a good 4 years and 10 months. I could have use Dell for 2 more years if it didnt break down on me.
What could have caused that? does anyone know? Now the reason why I'm posting this is because I bought a Macbook air 2012 (i5/8/256) 2 months ago and it cost me ($1706) exactly. I'm hoping this computer doesnt experience what happned to the above 2 computer I've owned in the past. My goal for this computer is for it to last 6 years maximum, hoping to keep it for that amount of time, and its my only computer that I will be using in that span.
has anyone experienced this problem with macbook computers?
|Jan 6, 2013, 12:16 PM
Some people are just unlucky, you may be one of those people. Apple hardware will break down sometimes just like everyone else's hardware. It doesn't really matter how much you pay. Did you not take your laptops to a repair centre to find out what the problem was and how much it would cost to fix? Most of the parts that can go wrong can be repaired or replaced although sometimes it's more cost effective to buy a new machine.
20" iMac 2007 2GHZ C2D 4GB RAM 250GB & 2011 13' MBA 1.7GHz i5 4GB 128SSD. Both OSX Mavericks. iPad Mini 32GB WiFi Black/Slate. ATV3.

AppleCare is a worthwhile investment for peace of mind. It's paid for itself with my MBP.
|Jan 6, 2013, 12:27 PM
My Sony lasted 10 years, people were laughing at my 4:3 screen. Screen super-dim, palm rests all worn. No game, wonder if them stress laptops too much.
|Jan 6, 2013, 01:58 PM
All laptops have parts that randomly die. My boss has a 2011 Air that the screen went out on. Replacement was like $300 or so.
Dell screens are sometimes very cheap if it's a popular model, if that's all that's wrong with yours you could have it fixed for $100-$200.
|Jan 6, 2013, 04:33 PM
I think it is pretty random.
My personal completely anecdotal evidence:
My 3.5 year old 2009 MBP is still going strong runs almost exactly like the day I bought it and never had any problems. But obviously hasn't reached the 6 yr mark yet.
My boyfriend's 2 year old cheap HP laptop is having issues with charging after only 2 years (won't even turn on sometimes) and he is not very happy with it.
My sister's 6 year old equally cheap Dell inspirion is still running (miraculously) even though the backlighting is starting to fail and it gives her the blue screen of death occasionally.
My theory: Externally Macs are more likely to hold up than cheaper laptops (the same can probably also be said of more expensive PC laptops). Things like the power port dying or the display giving out or the hinge crapping out are less likely to happen on a mac. But having the motherboard die etc. is probably likely to happen to a small percentage of all computers and you just can't predict it most of the time.

There is so much quality control you can do over products but things just happen. AppleCare for Mac is the only thing I recommend. This does come from a former Apple Specialist who worked there for 3 years. I did a lot more than just Specialist as were had to move around the store.
I bought a MacBook 5 years ago and it's still going strong. Most of my friends computer are still going strong after 10, 4, 5, 3 and 5 years. My family has one still going after 4 years.
These are man made products. Get AppleCare, it will pay for itself. The awesome thing is that you are new to Apple and if you call them, they will teach you anything Apple. Best over the phone service ever.
Anyways, no one can predict. These are just toys, they are tools. Treat it with respect and do your best to protect these devices. Make sure it gets good ventilation when you are doing intensive tasks.
No, I don't when your computer will die it will just happen.
Did you ever connect any of these old PCs (your Dell or HP) to any external monitor to see what it was? A loose cable can happen.

These are amazing products that enrich our lives that we see as toys, remember that they are expensive and should be used as tools to reach our dreams~

February 2, 2009), recently sent a reminder to policyholders that defenses raised in the underlying action may not only affect coverage, but may also leave individual insureds liable for reimbursement to the carrier. In Spectrum, the Ninth Circuit held that a marketer was judicially estopped from obtaining advertising insurance coverage for trade dress infringement claims. The Ninth Circuit determined that the marketer made arguments in the underlying trade dress litigation that precluded insurance coverage for the defense of the trade dress claim.

Wal-Mart on Knox Avenue in North Augusta is now home to a new Care Clinic, one of only seven in the country.
The clinic, which is located beside the Wal-Mart Vision Center in the front of the store, is open seven days a week and provides primary care.
Were so proud and excited for the grand opening of the Wal-Mart Care Clinic, said, Curtis Screen, Wal-Mart manager. ... Its going to provide affordable health care options for our associates as well as our shoppers in the local North Augusta community.
According to Screen, the Wal-Mart Care Clinic will provide care for anything from diabetes to health screening.
Ken Sasse, division manager of Health and Wellness for Wal-Mart, called the clinic a great opportunity for Wal-Mart employees and the community.
Weve been focused on helping our associates and customers live healthier lives, he said. With opening this clinic, we have a unique opportunity to drive down health-care costs for more than 1 billion Wal-Mart associates and their families. Its an incredible opportunity to help take care of our associates and customers nationwide, because this clinic gives them access to quality and affordable health care. For customers, office visits are only $40, which is very affordable and accessible in the store.
In the clinic, there will be two nurse practitioners, Laurie Gerhard and Angela Dykes, who will man the center on a daily basis. The clinic features a lab and three examination rooms.
I see the patients and interact with the people who come into the clinic, Gerhard said. Im excited to give good, quality care at a low price, and we have a lot of uninsured people who can afford this care. We can see them here, and we partner with Wal-Mart to offer $4 medication. People can get treatment and medication and possibly get out for less than $100.
The Wal-Mart Care Clinic is open Mondays through Fridays from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
For more information on the clinic, call 803-426-5087 or visit the store at 1201 Knox Ave.

A staff member secures a mask on Chandler Harker, 13, Beech Grove, for treatment on his brainstem tumor at Bloomington's Midwest Proton Radiotherapy Institute, which specializes in cancers of the head and neck.
- Filed Under
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Chandler Harker climbs onto a mechanical bed, takes off his Duke Blue Devils hat and puts on a white face mask.
Strapped firmly in place, his 13-year-old body is lifted into a round, spaceship-like chamber called a gantry. It rotates around Chandler to deliver an invisible beam of radiation aimed precisely at his cancer.
That proton beam pinpoints the tumor on Chandler's brainstem, while not damaging things that traditional radiation might. ...

The Island of Malta region
A truly fascinating island full of history and charm... The people very friendly and helpful... An all year round island with lots of things to do and see...The climate is Mediterranean, with mild rainy winter and hot dry summers.
The archipelago consists of three islands: Malta, Gozo and Comino with a total population of 400,000 inhabitants over an area of 316sq km and a coastline of 196.8km
Malta is the largest island. Gozo is the second largest island and is more rural, characterised by fishing, tourism, crafts and agriculture while Comino is largely uninhabited. With superbly sunny weather, expansive beaches, a thriving nightlife and 7,000 years of intriguing history. Several temples around the island such as Hagar Qim and Mnajdra are believed to have been erected around 1000 years before the famous pyramids of Giza and are the oldest freestanding monuments in the world.
There is a great deal to see and do. With a little help from any guidebook, captivating places of interest are immediately identified – the world famous Hypogeum selected as a place of World Heritage by UNESCO, prehistoric temples and grand palaces are but a few.
Swieqi is centrally located, and by means of public transport which is 5 mins walk from the property, makes it easier to go around the island and appreciate the places of interest which the island has to offer.
All our guests comment on the fantastic location of this apartment as it is close to everything and everywhere. Swieqi is a modern and quiet village located close to the buzzing nightlife of Paceville. Just 2 minutes walk down the road takes you to a cinema complex with 17 theatres showing all the latest movies, 10 pin bowling alley with 20 lanes, a games room and a children's entertainment area. A shopping complex, bars, cafes, pubs and restaurants are situated a short walk from the apartment. Two casinos are less than 10 minutes walk away and offer both slot machines and live gaming tables. Sliema, the most cosmopolitan town is just a 10 minute bus ride from Swieqi and Valletta, the capital, 20 minutes away. In the summer months every weekend one or more festas are held celebrating the patron saint of the village. Fireworks are let off every evening lighting up the night sky. A 10 minute drive takes you to a nice water park which is lovely both for adults and children.

"BEAUTIFUL apartments, fantastic location, helpful, perfect!"
We stayed at the Diamond Apartments for New Years and had a fantastic time. The apartment itself was large and spacious and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and easy. The owner was incredibly helpful and friendly - before and during our stay. She gave us great advice and helped us to organise transport. The apartment is really close to main areas for eating and nightlife as well as for the buses around the island, yet tucked away in a quiet residential area. Highly recommend.

"Top quality contemporary apartment in excellent location."
We previously stayed with Caroline in June of this year in her other apartment which is situated in the same building . We had such a good time then, my wife, her sister and I went back for a week at the end of August, staying in this new apartment which Caroline had just finished. It is bright, modern, comfortable and spacious. It is finished to the highest standard with top quality fixtures and fittings and has everything you need for your stay.
The apartment is located in a quiet residential area but five minutes walk takes you to Bay Street where the lively bars and clubs are for the younger ones. Ten minutes relaxed walk takes you Spinola Bay where there are lovely bars and restaurants for the more mature like us. Seven/Eight minutes relaxed walk takes you to the bus terminus where you can get a bus to anywhere on the Island, so no need to hire a car. Three to four minutes walk takes you up or down the street to a number of shops where you can get all the groceries, cakes, wine and beer you will need. Caroline is the most perfect host from meeting and greeting to checking with you during your holiday that everything is okay or if you need anything. She will arrange anything you need from airport transport to groceries if you are arriving late. Caroline even provided us with a mobile phone so she could check with us during the week that all was fine and we also used it to contact a restaurant when we were running slightly late for a booking.
We would definately return and stay at either of Carolines' apartments.
Thank you for choosing to stay with again, it was our pleasure having you and hope to be able to welcome you again in the near future. Best wishes, Caroline.

Footballtennis, also known as futnet, is a ball game popular in many European nations. Usually played on an 8m x 12m court in single, double and triple formats, it combines the moves of football with the rules of tennis. The idea is that players serve and return a football by kicking it, aiming to win two sets, with each set reaching a minimum of 11 points.
The good news for Mumbaikars is that Cajetan Dias, 26, a resident of Dadar and an accomplished football referee, is developing this unique game at the grassroot level in the city. "I plan to conduct sessions for introducing this game in 50+ schools across Mumbai," says Dias. Having officiated in the under-19 I-League (the top level of youth football in India) and numerous other national-level competitions, Dias has proposed for the formation of MDFTA (Mumbai District FootballTennis Association), a professional league along the lines of the Mumbai District Football Association, which has around 300 teams under its umbrella.
Why footballtennis, one might ask. Dias explains, "I love this game. I aim to help footballers fulfill their dreams of showcasing their skills at an international level with the help of footballtennis. Representation at the state and national level also makes one eligible for the sports quota in education."
Every day at the St. Xavier's ground, Parel, Dias trains underprivileged children in football for free, under his initiative, Dias United Sports Club. He is now juggling this with coaching Mumbai's official footballtennis team, who won a gold medal in a state-level tournament recently. The team is now gearing up for another tournament this month. Dias also adds, "This is not a contact sport and hence, there are lesser chances of injuries. It is also a good option for footballers who have endurance issues. Midfielders, especially, are the best-suited for footballtennis."
If the co-incidence of FIFA 2014 and Wimbledon inspires you to combine the two sports, Cajetan Dias is the man for you!
Futnet is a sport that originated in 1920s in Central Europe

EARLY FAVORITE: IF Brendan Harris figures to be among the starters Saturday against Toronto. The utility player already has caught Maddon's eye in his first Rays camp.
"I really like what Brendan Harris has done to this point; he's made a great first impression," Maddon said. "He's my kind of player, the way he goes about his business. He is all business, and he's able to execute. I see this guy as being a consistent kind of a player as he matures. I like him. So he's going to get a very good look during this camp."

Great boat... had mine since 2010... durable, tracks great, fast for a inflatable. My only gripe is that its heavier than I thought it would be when un-inflated. I think the Velocity is out of production... replaced by a eleven foot model.

In its efforts towards improving waste collection and transportation, the Coimbatore Corporation would study the Warangal model of waste management, said Commissioner G. Latha.
Speaking to reporters at the end of a slide show presentation at the Corporation Kalaiarangam in the city on Tuesday, she said that the Corporation would study how the Warangal Municipal Corporation had gone about sharing revenue obtained from selling dry waste.
The Warangal civic body had implemented a scheme wherein it allowed the conservancy workers to weigh and register the dry waste they had collected and then sell the same. The money obtained therefrom would be spent on the workers.
Ms. Latha said that if the Coimbatore Corporation were to adopt the model, it would first need the State Government's sanction and then the laws required to implement the scheme.
At present the civic body did not have the required rules under which it could implement the scheme.
Ms. Latha also said that the Corporation had to also study the manner in which the Warrangal local body had tied-up with various agencies to process wet and dry wastes.
Her understanding was that the workers would sell the dry waste to the agencies and give the wet waste as well for it to be converted to manure. Mayor S.M. Velusamy said that though the Corporation was doing well, it had to do better.
It had to improve its waste collection and in doing so it needed the support of the conservancy workers.
The workers should love the city and their job and only then would they be able to maintain the city clean. He also spoke about the measures the Corporation had initiated for the workers' welfare.
M.J. Muthukumaraswamy of Clean Cities Foundation, who made the slide show presentation, said that the reasons behind the success of Warrangal model of waste management was that the conservancy workers decided where to place bins and how to about implementing the scheme.
They designed the route chart and took up responsibility. And, two, they became stakeholders in the system as they gained from selling dry waste.
His colleague Sanjay Gupta was also present.

1997 BEST Women's Haircut, Curly
James Peltier
It's unusual to find a hairdresser who can cut curly hair without reducing one's twisty, tangling locks to a frizzy puffball. James can handle both of these challenges. Even more unusual, before he turned to his current career, he worked as an auto mechanic and a construction worker. And he rides a Harley.

Orders meet on hospital waste water disposal
Ombudsman for Local-Self Government Institutions Justice M.N. Krishnan has directed the authorities of the Kozhikode Government Medical College Hospital and the Kozhikode Corporation to convene a meeting to find a solution to the problems arising out of discharge of waste water from the medical college hospital to its neighbourhood.
The Ombudsman's directive came in response to a petition filed by K.P. Abdul Lathif, a resident in the hospital's neighbourhood.
He had produced news published in a Malayalam daily newspaper in support of his charge that discharge of waste water from the hospital had made life hell for residents near the hospital. The Kozhikode Corporation secretary and the Principal of the medical college were present when the Ombudsman issued his order.
On another complaint, the Ombudsman ordered speeding up of work for widening of the Mankavu cemetery – Methottuthazham road.
The complaint was filed by P. Jaison who pointed out the validity of permission granted for land acquisition ended on July 13, 2011 and sought a directive for completion of the road-widening work.
During the sitting held at the conference hall of the district panchayat, the Ombudsman examined 12 complaints from Kozhikode district, and 11 from Wayanad.
As many as 11 complaints were settled.

- cleans my makeup including eyeshadow and mascara
- slight scent like watered juice
- could skip cleanser in a pinch (although I always use a cleanser afterwards)
- high price
- slight scent like watered juice (love/hate)
- does not remove waterproof mascara (still need oily base)
- still need to use face cleanser to remove tacky feeling (and just part of my routine)
- when used as a toner, leaves skin slightly tacky
Used this for a month and skin did not dry or react. At this price, can find comparable so would not repurchase but love their body oil.
(1=bad, 2=disappointing, 3=good but may find comparable others, 4=good but not holy grail, 5=one of the best or possibly irreplaceable)

I want to love Caudalie so badly. Skincare and vino are two of my favorite things. This product is meant to be applied to the face to remove traces of oil and makeup. It is not to be rinsed off. The Cleansing Water does not behave like a toner in that you don't get that icy-cold-clean skin feeling from applying it. It does not act as a makeup remover either. It can usually remove my concealer and bronzer but does not remove my eye makeup at all. Also, I really do not care for the scent. It is reminiscent of a child's juice box that has been left out in the sun. In summary, this product has no function in my beauty routine. I was excited to try it but after a year's use, I can definitely confirm that I am not a fan.

This is a decent product, it definitely does take off my make-up. I don't wear waterproof mascara, but I do wear the Stila stay all day eyeliner which is waterproof, and even that comes off quite easily, I just run it across the base of my eyelashes a couple times and it comes right off. As for mascara I let it sit on my closed eyes for a little bit then wipe off, it gets that off quite easily too. I don't find that I have to use multiple pads to get my makeup off, or too much of the product. With that being said I will probably stick to Bioderma and not buy this again, as Bioderma is cheaper and does the exact same thing. This is a bit pricey $28 CAD for a makeup remover. I have not found that it's done anything to improve my skin.

I know this a cult product and when I got it in a 500 point perk set I was really excited. I don't really understand this product. It's a cleansing water right? And you're not supposed to wash it off but it doesn't do a good job taking off makeup. It leaves a residue on my skin that is necessary to wash off. It just doesn't seem like a logical step to me when my clinique take the day off, or makeup wipes can do the job so much better.

I've been using Bioderma cleansing water for a while now, close to a year. Saw this as a sample size going at SG$18 at sephora so I bought this together with the moisturising toner which was going at the same price. I felt that I didn't manage to get my face makeup off completely, even when I used 4 cotton pads. Not really helpful that way, I'm definitely sticking to Bioderma still!

Simply put, it doesn't remove all of my makeup and my face feels sticky after I use it. I love Caudalie but this product is a big no for me.

I was looking for something that'd remove the extra makeup on my face after my cleanser and this was pretty good and removing the remaining traces (and felt good and fresh on my skin). It also seems to moisturize my face as well, surprisingly! This is great because I have dry sensitive skin and my skin tends to flake after a facewash. Bonus? This has no alcohol! Now I have two no-alcohol toners I can alternate and use :)
I wouldn't use this as my sole makeup remover though. It's a little weak, so you definitely need to wash your face properly with a cleanser.
The scent is very interesting. It smells very green, kind of like the scent of fresh cut grass, but more like the scent of citrus-y leaves.

So far, this is my favourite cleansing water. It's moisturising without making my skin greasy and does the best job at taking off eye-make-up. The fragrance is really fresh and makes the product feel a little luxurious. If you're looking for a more moisturising cleansing water, give this one a try!

Stocked up on Caudalie products during a beauty emporium 50% flash sale, fab website by the way for anyone in the UK. I hadn't tried this before and after being a long term Bioderma fan, I fancied trying it. Caudalie's cleansing water smells lovely, definitely nicer than Bioderma. I also much prefer the Caudalie packaging, I find the Bioderma flip lid a bit annoying. Caudalie's cleansing capabilities are not as good in my opinion, despite repeated wiping till the cotton pad looked clean, I still had traces of eye make up and face make up the next morning which hasn't happened with Bioderma before. This product did not irritate my eyes or my skin so thumbs up for its gentleness. I will use up what is left in the bottle but given i didn't find it very effective even as an occasional cleanser for very late nights or feeling lazy, I won't repurchase. I use these products so infrequently value for money is ok, otherwise I feel you would need to use an awful lot of product to ensure complete make up removal, so it would be costly.

Amazing cleansing water!
i hate make up remover lotions as they really make me feel oilier and dirtier and use soap products or this cleansing water.
To be honest i haven't used any other cleansing water to compare but for me it works just great, Cleans extremely well without leaving any trace of oiliness of course but also without the stretchy felling after soap cleansers.
Just a really comfortable clean skin.

LA Galaxy star David Beckham got through 20 minutes on his return from injury against Columbus Crew on Saturday.
The 35-year old English midfielder was sidelined from March with an Achilles injury he suffered whilst on loan with Italian giants AC Milan and was able to get through part of the 3-1 win over Crew at The Home Depot Center.
Beckham admits he felt good and there were no ill-effects but is unsure just how much game time coach Bruce Arena will give him this weekend against DC United.
"There wasn't any reaction from irritation from the 20 minutes that I got and I felt good on the Monday," Beckham said. "It was a good 20 minutes and a good time to get in. That's down to the manager, whether he thinks I should start or come into the game."
Arena admitted that a start was unlikely but a natural progression to more minutes was a definite.
"We're not building him from 20 minutes to 90 minutes," Arena said. "We're building him from 20 minutes to somewhere between 20 and 45, and then somewhere between 45 and 60. Once we're sure he can play 45 minutes, I think he's in position to start a game."

Students at all stages of their education have access to grants and other funding sources to help cover the costs of their undergraduate and advanced degrees. Your needs for funding will change as you progress from one degree to another, and there are many opportunities out there to assist you in coming up with ways to pay for an often daunting tuition bill. Grants for undergraduates will often come as a result of your financial aid application, while grants for advanced degrees will often be closely linked to your chosen field of study. If you're still at a loss for funding and have exhausted your options for grants by degree level, remember that scholarships are free money too, and that a free scholarship search could net you quite a bit of funding regardless of the degree you're pursuing.
Much like scholarships, most grants target undergraduates. Many of these will also be federal grants, which require filling out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, to determine whether you're eligible for the most popular needs-based grants like the Federal Pell and Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants. High school students relying on scholarships and grants to cover tuition not addressed through student loans should apply to those funding sources early and often, as there is no guarantee you'll receive any grant funding even if you're found eligible for a particular need-based grant. Funding levels for those awards vary annually, and there is a set amount disbursed by colleges and the government each year.
Incoming freshmen with a better idea of what they would like to study, or who have a particular talent they'll be pursuing on the college level, may be eligible for other grants specific to their field of study or characteristics. Professional organizations may be particularly generous when it comes to funding deserving undergraduates, and while many of these awards will be need-based like the federal awards, some will consider other factors like your community service record and academic achievements. Grants based on your abilities in the classroom are particularly common as college-based grants targeting undergraduates. The University of Notre Dame, for example, has an Undergraduate Research and Teaching Opportunity Program that rewards summer session students interested in independent research and creative projects. If you have a passion in a particular field, make sure you tell your college, as there could be funding options for you to explore that won't show up on your FAFSA.
Grants for graduate students are harder to find than awards for undergraduates, but are often very generous, especially if you're pursuing a field of study that involves research. Grants for advanced degrees will often not only fund your education, but help pay for internships, career-advancement opportunities and research positions that will give you valuable experience and a resume boost once you complete your program. The Geological Society of America, for example, funds graduates grants for master's and doctoral these research in the geological sciences. Women, minorities and students with disabilities are particularly encouraged to apply. Government agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency (funding available for those interested in the environment and human health) and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (funding available for low-income graduate students pursuing careers in community planning and development) will have grant opportunities available. Many of the grants for advanced degrees will also be awarded by your intended college or university, and if you're particularly motivated and pursuing a PhD, you could be rewarded through not only generous grants, but assistantships and fellowships as well that could lead to a free ride at the school you're attending.
If you're an adult returning to school after a long hiatus, check with your employer. Often, private companies will offer scholarship and grant opportunities for employees looking to further their educations with master's degrees and beyond, and may even offer a pay bump after completing the program. Such programs usually require repayment in the form of service though – if you take money from a particular company or organization, expect to work for them once you're done with your degree for a set period of time. It could be worth it for an essentially free advanced degree.

Obama's Non-Campaign Against Bibi
Sometimes criticism is just criticism
The Bulletin, a Philadelphia-area newspaper, on Sunday gave the broadest airing I've yet seen of the theory (which I first saw floated by Jeffrey Goldberg) that the Obama Administration is actively, consciously seeking to undermine Prime Minister Netanyahu in order to have him lose his grip on power and be replaced with, presumably, a government more amenable to U.S. demands. Centers of this new strategy include former Clinton Administration Ambassador Martin Indyk and one-time negotiator Aaron David Miller (whom Lee Smith profiled last week).
Problem is, the tensions of March have since given way to the lovefest of April and May: steadfast praise and declared support for Israel from all quarters of the Administration; a rolling out of the red carpet for Defense Minister Ehud Barak last week; and a general aura of better times. A cynic would note that the Administration's earlier condemnations only buttressed Netanyahu domestically, as Israelis rallied 'round the flag. Still, the current era of good feeling is probably dispositive of the theory of a concerted Administration effort to topple Bibi. Only when Obama starts saying nice things about opposition leader Tzipi Livni will it have legs. That is what you should be on the lookout for—though I suspect you'll probably end up disappointed.

Congress Works to Improve Conditions In Poultry Farms
68 lawmakers are urging the Obama Administration to strengthen regulations for poultry farms, citing statistics that reveal inhumane treatment of hundreds of thousands of chickens.

Saving the Greater Sage Grouse: The Endangered Species Act has proven to be an effective tool for protecting many threatened animals since it was established in 1973. Right now there are nearly 1400 species on the Endangered Species List and more than 40 that are waiting to be added, including The Greater Sage Grouse. But this distinctive bird of the western U.S. could be running out time.

HORSE RACING: Del Mar adds head-to-head wager to Saturday races
In hopes of increasing betting handle, the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club will add a head-to-head wager with a 10 percent takeout on each Saturday's feature race, it was announced on Thursday.
The new bet, which has the approval of the Thoroughbred Owners of California, will be joined by the new Players Pick Five, which has a 14 percent takeout.
Both wagers were part of Del Mar's application to run its 37-day meet, beginning July 20, heard before the California Horse Racing Board at a meeting in Inglewood. The CHRB unanimously approved the application.
Del Mar also announced it will guarantee a $50,000 carryover in the Pick Six on each Sunday of the meet. The $50,000 will be placed in the winner's pool each Sunday. If there is no winner of the Pick Six on that day, the money would become part of a carryover for Wednesday's races.
Tom Robbins, executive vice president/racing, said the track will run only seven races the final three Fridays of the meet in order to keep first post at 4 p.m. and the brand "Four O'Clock Fridays." In the past, Del Mar moved up first post to 3:30 p.m. in order to run eight races on its card during the second half of the meet, but with a horse population shortage the decision was made to cut back by one race.
Del Mar said it will have a new application, or "app," available for bettors that will allow them to wager from their cellular devices. Bettors must deposit cash into an account at the track and will only be allowed to withdraw money from that account at the track. Any betting done on the account will count as on-track wagering, giving Del Mar a better return on its money.
The track had hoped to offer the head-to-head wager on each racing day, but was told by the company that runs its betting operation that the wager would have to be on the same race each day. Del Mar didn't like that option and decided to give Saturdays a test run for 2011.
"It will be along the lines of a sports bet," said Craig Dado, senior vice president/racing.
Robbins will pick the two horses involved in the wager at scratch time for the Saturday stakes race. After the morning-line odds are set, the public's wagering will determine the final odds. Payoffs won't be huge because it is essentially a match race within a real race. The winner of the matchup doesn't have to win the race, just beat the other horse. The winner could be the ninth-place finisher deafeating the 10th-place finisher.
"That wager would appeal to myself and my girlfriends," said CHRB commissioner Bo Derek during the meeting.
Del Mar CEO Joe Harper said he saw the wager as a "good newcomer's bet."
"I don't see a down side," Harper said after the meeting by cell phone. "You have to try new things. It's worth a shot."
The Breeders' Cup held match-up wagering in the past, but dropped it after low handle and little interest.

Ball of Fire
Barbara Stanwyck is the most American of American actresses, the one who, more than any other, brought to her performances the grit and plain talk, the shrugs, gripes and wisecracking that epitomize the speech and attitudes of everyday American life. Which is also why, never believing that our native casualness can equal art, Americans have never given Stanwyck her due. "Great acting" is the term we reserve for something that seems above us, embodied by stylized creatures like Katharine Hepburn or Bette Davis or Lillian Gish—all of whom deserve to be described as great actresses (and were never emotionally remote); it is also a term for the condescending "great lady" poses of screen actresses from Helen Hayes to Meryl Streep.
All that stale air is what Victoria Wilson aims to blow away in Steel-True: 1907–1940, the first volume of A Life of Barbara Stanwyck. Wilson, a renowned editor at Knopf who has been famously working on this book for fifteen years, doesn't strive to make the case that Stanwyck's story deserves the seriousness and length she brings it; she knows she doesn't have to. She treats Stanwyck as if her stature were never in question. Despite her uneven interpretations of various Stanwyck performances—and for me she misses the mark almost as much as she hits it—Wilson understands that Stanwyck was the most direct and least fussy of great actresses, one who could simultaneously be the toughest person in the room and the most emotionally unprotected.
A Stanwyck character can shock you: for example, Lily Powers in Baby Face, who smiles to herself as she watches the gin mill she grew up in burn to the ground, taking the bastard of a father who abused her along with it. Or a Stanwyck character can break your heart: for example, Lee Leander in Remember the Night, who demonstrates her toughness by choosing jail rather than allowing the assistant DA who's in love with her to throw away his career by blowing the case against her.
A typical Stanwyck scene progresses from Point A to Point B with as little ostentation as possible, but also with emotions that run a mile deep. It would be unfair, and wrong, to say that Stanwyck's performances are uncomplicated. Her naturalism is the emotional forerunner of the style that came to dominate American acting as the Method made its way into Broadway and Hollywood, but it is not burdened by the neurotic complications that characterized many of the Method actors.
Stanwyck's approach made her as effective in the hard-boiled early melodramas of Frank Capra (pictures like The Miracle Woman and Forbidden) or, comedy in the 1930s and early '40s being nearly as hard-nosed as drama, films like Howard Hawks's Ball of Fire and the greatest of all American romantic comedies, Preston Sturges's The Lady Eve. And it's what allowed her to go against the genre grain when, in the 1940s, she transitioned into noir films like Double Indemnity and, in the 1950s, into more matronly roles in melodramas like Douglas Sirk's There's Always Tomorrow, as piercing a movie about the discontents of marriage as America has ever produced. Stanwyck's Phyllis Dietrichson in Double Indemnity uses sex to get what she wants, but she is not a noir sexpot because she seems remote from desire itself, which gets in the way of what she really wants: the material trappings of middle-class comfort. Stanwyck's Phyllis is femme fatale as put-on artist, sneering at respectability even as she easily manipulates the respectable people around her. And in the "other woman" role in There's Always Tomorrow, Stanwyck eschews the steely suppressed hysteria that became Joan Crawford's stock-in-trade, playing a woman so sensible and kind that she winds up making the wife she almost supplants (played by Joan Bennett) seem mean-spirited and selfish by comparison.
* * *
Wilson proceeds from the conviction that Stanwyck is what might be called a founding artist, at the forefront of establishing the direct, unvarnished style that has long defined American screen acting. Wilson wants not just to define Stanwyck as one of the giants of American screen acting but also to place her life at the center of an era that saw the switch from vaudeville and theater to films, and then from the silent era to sound. On a larger scale, Wilson wants to chart the change from the recklessness of Hoover's economic policies to the compassionate activism of FDR's New Deal, which Stanwyck, a lifelong Republican, opposed.
There isn't a page here on which the sheer amount of research that Wilson has conducted isn't evident. And that is the book's glory—and its albatross. Steel-True does not yet have the visionary quality that was present from the start in Peter Guralnick's two-volume biography of Elvis Presley, nor has Wilson yet achieved the seamless blend of critical appraisal and cultural history that sang on every page of Eileen Whitfield's 1997 Pickford: The Woman Who Made Hollywood, still the most vital piece of Hollywood scholarship to emerge in the last few decades.
Steel-True crystallizes intellectually after you put it down, the wealth of information cohering into themes that carry through the book. Simply by noting Stanwyck's presence or absence on year-to-year lists of the top ten box-office stars, or by detailing her salary from project to project (and how her income was affected when, as often happened, Stanwyck refused the lame assignments the studios were offering her), Wilson builds into her narrative an overarching consciousness of the precariousness of being a star, a crucial point for an epic biography set in golden-age Hollywood—especially in light of how routine it is for the public to assume that anyone famous lives a life of limitless privilege.

MLS Support reviews

Great Service, Excellent Support, and Outstanding Results!!!
My house was sold in 7 days. I was amazed. MLSSupport.com made it very easy. I am so glad I used their services.
I was hesitant just like you. Dont waste your time with other companies, MLSSupport.com is the best MLS service out there.
I am a first time home seller, and was initially unsure about putting my house on the market with a flat fee service. A friend of mine used this company and had good luck, so I decided to check it out for myself. The gentleman answering my questions was very helpful and patient when I went through my list of questions, and walked me through the sign up process. The realtor responded promptly, and my house was listed quickly. I am happy to say I am now a former homeowner! My house sold almost faster than I was ready for, and I am really happy that I trusted MLSSupport.
Absolutely terrible!!!
I called them to ask a question about open houses. Never got a call back. So I waited for 2 hours and called again. A guy answered the phone and was incredibly rude. I then made a comment about how there ability to be able to get a hold of a live person was no that great, he then started to actually yell at me and told me to F off and go del with another company.
I asked for a manager and he proceeded to tell me that he was the manager. I was I. Just total shock that someone could talk to someone like that in the customer service industry I hung up. I would stay clear of these folks. Not very professional.
There were many flat fee mls companies to chose from. They said a live person would answer the phone. They were right. I called at 8pm and there was a gentleman to assist me. He was very knowledgeable and professional. Some flat fee mls only have support from 9am-5pm. This company have support after hours. I was very impressed with the service and support.
I would highly recommend this company. If you are a first timer, this company is for you. They are very helpful and patient.
Tip for consumers: Excellent Service, Exellent Value, and Excellent Choice.Ask Michelle about MLS Support
My wife and I were unsure about using an online MLS Support type company but a friend ours told us about www.mlssupport.com and we decided to call them and after speaking with their customer service person we were convinced that this was the right way to go. They listed our home within 24 hours and 19 days later it was sold! We had a hard time believing that they could do this so inexpensively, but they did. What a deal!
Tip for consumers: Highly recommendedAsk Mike about MLS Support
Wow. I am in shock. I called www.mlssupport.com to ask about their services because I had been solicited by another flat fee MLS company and I wanted to compare. The gentleman (and I use that term loosely) on the phone was incredibly rude! I initially asked if there were any additional fees outside of the package price that was listed. I waited for an answer and then I wasn't sure if we had a bad connection so I started to continue to elaborate on my question. Within a second he started his answer. I stopped talking and listened. Then I asked another question and once again, silence. I waited. Finally I started to elaborate on that question as I wasn't sure why he wasn't speaking of if I was clear enough. Once again he started talking. I stopped talking. Then he proceeded to yell, YES YELL, at me telling me to stop interrupting. I listened to his rant as he said, I didn't know what I was talking about so he was trying to explain it all to me and all I kept doing was interrupting. He said I asked the same question three times and that he could explain it if I would shut up. Finally, when he stopped, I explained that there was a long lull after everything I said and that I wasn't sure our connection was very good. I wasn't interrupting him, we just kept speaking at the same time. And there was no need to actually yell at me and call me stupid. He even said that our conversation was "in and out" on his end. I'm surprised that didn't tip him off to the conversation overlap. I explained then that I was more interested in hiring his company (despite the $50 additional photo fee) than any of the others that I had researched but after the WORST customer service conversation with him before I even signed up with his company told me this might not be a good match. He interrupted me and told me to go hire someone else then. They may do a good job. I have no idea because I couldn't get past the initial call without being yelled at and insulted. I can say they aren't a very professional business. And I'm still not ruffled. Just amazed.
This company helps you list your home on the MLS and Realtor.com for a flat fee. It was my first time. I was very skeptical. The support was excellent and responsive. My home was listed on the MLS within 24 hours. The service works. My home was sold within One month. I would recommend mlssupport.com to my family and friends.

Berlusconi convicted in wiretap case
Wiretapped conversations are widely published in Italian media, despite the risks of prosecution.
In a potentially more damaging case, the verdict is also nearing in Berlusconi's appeals trial on a conviction of tax fraud in the purchase of rights to broadcast Hollywood films on Berlusconi's Mediaset network. Prosecutors have demanded the court uphold the conviction and four-year sentence. They also are seeking a five-year ban from public office.
Berlusconi also is on trial in Milan for allegedly paying a Moroccan teen for sex during his now-infamous Bunga Bunga parties, with a verdict likely this month.
Prosecutors in Naples are investigating him for corruption for allegedly paying an opposition lawmaker (EURO)3 million ($3.9 million) to join his party, a move that significantly weakened the previous center-left government of Romano Prodi.

Opposition members in the Lok Sabha on Tuesday demanded a clear set of rules for according faster clearances to industrial projects stalled in environmental hurdle.
Terming that environmental clearance has become a major "racket" in the environment ministry, TMC member Saugata Roy said "there should be a clear-cut policy or rule for clearances. Delay causes setback to our industrial development".
Pinaki Misra (BJD) demanded that rule should be framed in such a way that states too can clear some of the proposals and every project need not come up to Centre for approval. He said state environment clearance board can be set up on the lines of state pollution control board which can also clear projects.
The Posco steel project in Odisha with an investment of about Rs 52,000 crore is stuck in clearance hurdle. Besides, Vedanta Group is also awaiting clearance for bauxite mining in Niyamgiri hills, he said.
Initiating a discussion on the demands for grants of the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Anto Antony (Congress) suggested the government should set aside Rs 700 crore from clean energy fund to encourage farmers for rubber plantation. He suggested re-examining the budget allocation for the Ministry and also setting up of a carbon exchange market on the lines of the US, European Union and China.
Linking the carbon exchange market to foreign markets, Antony said, will help India earn foreign exchange. Talking about green-nods to projects, Roy said time frame should be laid out for online clearances. He said the government should follow a sustainable development model to help economy grow at 7-8%.
He also said the plan allocation for the Ministry was fixed at Rs 2,043 crore in the current fiscal, less than Rs 2,340 crore budgeted last year. The acual spending by the ministry in 2013-14 was over Rs 1,800 crore.

FedRAMP declares initial operating capability
A new program to start issuing governmentwide security certifications for cloud computing products is officially up and running. The agencies in charge of managing the FedRAMP program have declared initial operating capability. That means commercial cloud service providers will be able to start applying to have their products certified under FedRAMP, which is intended to let the government certify a solution once and use it multiple times across agencies. It will take another six to 12 months before the first cloud product is approved.

NIST issues cloud computing guide
The National Institute of Standards and Technology is trying to demystify cloud computing for federal agencies. They've just published the final version of a document called Cloud Computing Synopsis and Recommendations. In it, NIST aims to provide a plain-language breakdown of how clouds are deployed, what services they can offer, typical terms of service, and security issues. NIST says the publication is aimed at IT decision makers, designed to help them decide what cloud technologies and configurations will meet their needs.

USASpending moves to big data cloud'
The General Services Administration is moving its huge database of federal spending information to a big data cloud. The USASpending.gov site will make the move to a platform that can take in federal contract award information from a variety of sources and perform data analytics. The system is based on the Apache Software Foundation's open source Hadoop platform. USASpending lets users search for federal spending information, both prime contracts and subawards, by using simple keyword searches.

Agencies can find more savings in cloud
A new report finds federal agencies can wring a lot more potential savings by implementing cloud computing. The study by the group Meritalk finds agencies are saving about 5 billiion dollars a year right now but total potential savings could be as much as 12 billion dollars. A survey of more than 100 government IT managers found percieved security concerns are the biggest factor holding back cloud adoption. 85 percent of those surveyed cited security worries. The second biggest factor: agency culture, at 38 percent.

When do you start registering for baby items?
Wife since 2003 Mommy to #1 since June 2008 Baby #2 since March 2013
Wife since 2003 Mommy to #1 since June 2008 Baby #2 since March 2013
With my first I was probably around 25wks when I registered. I think that was about the right time.
Sharon, DS 6/11/06, DD 4/11/08, DD 4/22/13, DS 1/20/15
I think 25 weeks or beyond is the right time as well. Products change in the store so you don't want to register for things too early and then have them out of stock when it's time for your shower because they've been replaced with a newer model.
In my opinion, there is no need to register until right before your shower invites go out since I wouldn't imagine people would be buying your gifts before then.
If you're really itching to start, I suggest starting a pinterest board to get ideas of things that you will want to register for.

I started one this week (I'm 15 weeks today) but haven't told anyone about it yet. My family does Christmas shopping early, so my mother and MIL have both already asked when we'll get a registry together so they can get Christmas done. I'm not finding out the gender, so that part doesn't matter too much. And we're not planning to register for clothes or blankets since you get that stuff anyway, so hopefuly stuff like bottles and breast pumps are fairly constant.
