"This card work perfectly for my baby's 1st birthday and went well with the theme - The Masters. The colors just pop out and you can get playful with the photos you add. It had the right amount of colors, contrast and creativeness. The real product surprised me by how great it turned out."
"I would order this card ten times over! I love this card. So simple to make. Fast shipping. Can't believe the quality. It's thick and the envelopes are very nice."
"Simply beautifull!! Last year completely satisfied with a 1st birthday model and this year in love with my final product. Very easy to personalize it, great paper quality and perfect pearl finish paper...so delicate. Everyone loved it!!!"
"The cards are beautiful but the color is different than I shown online. The section with the wording appears blue online but is a more greyish/purple in print. Please fix this for future customers. I am kind of upset about it but theres nothing that can be done now. They have to be ready to mail tomorrow. Thank you"
"I loved this on the website and how I could personalize it so much and I am even more in love with it now in person, I am so happy and excited to send these out for my sons big first birthday. Thank you for your quick service and awesome prices for great products"

We too are having our sleep issues. To add to that she has started rolling over adding to the fun fun mix. :S So we have had to stop swaddling her which has made it impossible for her to fall asleep. :( My question is...do we really have to stop? She can roll back to stomach, but not stomach to back, so even if she were to roll over onto her belly, she couldn't roll herself back over anyhow. I also want to add that her crib is in our room and she cries bloody murder if she rolls over. So do we really have to give up the swaddle??
necessary to stop swaddling?
I would stop. Since she's able to roll over you never know if one time she does and she doesn't scream her head off. It isn't a chance I would take.
We stopped swaddling our LO (because we moved her from our bed to her crib) and found we were having issues. We re-introduced white noise which solved most of our problems. Try different things, you never know swaddling might not be necessary.

Happy to announce: Persephone Elizabeth joined our family on 5/26/12!
I would un swaddle if she's rolling. It won't take long for her to get used to it. You could always use a sleep sack or the woombi that has the arm cut outs. It may make her feel a little more secure.
Is LO can roll, Unless you have things propped around to make sure they don't or can't roll, I'd for sure stop swaddling.
Proud Marine wife. Proud mommy to Cameron (June 2012)
I would stop because I would be too nervous, but if you feel confident that you would hear her then it's your call. Would swaddling her with her arms out still comfort her? Another thing you could try if you stop swaddling is letting her sleep on her tummy. That's another judgement call, since back is best, but since she can roll you can't really stop her now and often babies sleep more comfortably on their tummies.

President Barack Obama wants to overhaul the immigration system this year and said that while some House Republicans seem reluctant to support changes he wants to make the vote as easy as he can.
"It's my estimation that we actually have the votes to get comprehensive immigration reform done in the House right now," Mr. Obama said at a meeting with chief executives from McDonald's Corp., Blackstone Group LP and other companies. "The politics are challenging for the speaker and others, and we want to make it as easy for them as possible.

New York Mesothelioma Lawyer Says Gene Defect Research May Improve Treatment
Attorney Joseph W. Belluck of New York´s Belluck & Fox, LLP, voices support for recently reported advances in personalized medicine.
New York, NY (PRWEB) March 24, 2012
New York mesothelioma attorney Joseph W. Belluck said today that he welcomes recent reports of the advances being made in personalized medicine.
Personalized medicine is treatment tailored to an individual´s DNA. This emerging frontier in cancer treatment could ultimately help patients with mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases, Belluck said.
"It´s clear that there is no one silver bullet to cure cancer," said Belluck, a partner of Belluck & Fox, LLP, a nationally recognized New York personal injury firm that focuses on mesothelioma lawsuits.
"However, these advances in personalized medicine give us hope that many cancer patients will eventually be able to manage their disease, as diabetics do today, and live normal lives," the attorney said.
Mesothelioma is a cancer of the lining of the lung and abdomen. The aggressive cancer is associated with inhaling microscopic asbestos fibers.
Approximately 2,500 to 3,000 people are diagnosed each year in the U.S. with mesothelioma, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Most victims are older workers, retired workers and veterans who were exposed to toxic asbestos in a workplace or in the military, Belluck said.
The new interest in personalized medicine results from several factors, according to a new article in the March/April edition of Technology Review. The journal is published by Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
There has been a steep drop in the cost of decoding DNA. Researchers have developed a stronger understanding of the genetics of cancer. And drug makers are focusing on developing drugs that target gene defects that cause cells to become cancerous, the article states.
Before Apple founder Steve Jobs died of pancreatic cancer last year, Jobs paid scientists more than $100,000 to decode all the DNA of his cancerous cells and normal cells in hopes of finding information to suppress his advancing cancer, according to the article. But today, the cost would be much lower.
Foundation Medicine, a biotechnology company, is now offering DNA testing of tumor tissue to identity genetic mutations and help oncologists select anti-cancer drugs that target the identified DNA defects, the article reports. Foundation Medicine expects to process about 5,000 samples this year at a cost of $5,000 a sample.
Drug companies have been utilizing the testing to get genetic explanations of why some patients respond well to their cancer drugs, but not others, the article says.
"While many of the drugs targeting specific gene defects remain in early testing, personalized medicine is an approach that holds much promise," Belluck said.
"At Belluck & Fox, we pride ourselves on providing professional and personalized legal representation of victims of mesothelioma and asbestos-related disease. We assist each client based on their specific set of facts. These facts include their asbestos exposure and the progression of their disease. "
About Belluck & Fox, LLP
Belluck & Fox, LLP, is a nationally recognized law firm that represents individuals with asbestos and mesothelioma claims, as well as victims of crime, motorcycle crashes, lead paint and other serious injuries. The firm provides personalized and professional representation and has won over $400 million in compensation for clients and their families.
Partner Joseph W. Belluck is AV-rated by Martindale-Hubbell and is listed in Best Lawyers in America, New York Magazine´s "Best Lawyers in the New York Area" and in Super Lawyers. Mr. Belluck has won numerous cases involving injuries from asbestos, defective medical products, tobacco and lead paint, including a recent asbestos case that settled for more than $12 million.
Partner Jordan Fox is a well-known asbestos and mesothelioma attorney who has been named to the Best Lawyers in America, New York Magazine´s "Best Lawyers in the New York Area" and to Super Lawyers. On two separate occasions his verdicts were featured as the National Law Journal´s Largest Verdict of the Year. He recently secured verdicts of $32 million and more than $19 million on behalf of individuals who had contracted mesothelioma from asbestos exposure.
In September, Belluck & Fox, LLP, won a coveted spot on a list of America's best law firms, which was published jointly by U.S. News & World Report and Best Lawyers magazine. The listing showcased 8,782 different law firms ranked in one or more of 81 major practice areas.

Adamson, Mapua pick up wins in PCCL Metro Manila qualifiers
More News from Celest R. Flores
MANILA, Philippines — Adamson and Mapua Tuesday got a headstart in its bid to advance in the Philippine Collegiate Champions League (PCCL) after repulsing separate foes in the Metro Manila qualifiers.
UAAP sixth placer Adamson handily beat Interscholastic Athletic Association (Isaa) champion Philippine Merchant Marine School 73-63 in the first game at San Juan Arena.
Jericho Cruz, Jansen Rios, and Celedonio Trollano all scored in double digits, punctuating a balanced attack from the Falcons.
Adamson was in control throughout the game, leading by 24 at halftime but relaxed a bit in the fourth which allowed PMMS to bring down the deficit.
Dhon Reverente paced the PMMS, which still has a shot at a slot in the next round in the next two days, with 17 points.
Mapua, NCAA's sixth, on the other hand, had to rely on Gab Banal's fourth quarter explosion to fend off Centro Escolar University 72-66.
Banal topped with 16 points while Josan Nimes added 15 points for the Cardinals, who took down a tough foe in Men's National Collegiate Athletic Association (MNCAA) titlist CEU.
In the South Luzon-Bicol regionals, University of Batangas captured the qualifier after clobbering Naga College Foundation, 115-83, in Naga City.
The top two squads to emerge in the three-day qualifiers will get a ticket to the Sweet 16 phase of the nationwide tournament.

|Doc Rivers: Lakers 'have more firestorms going on'
|02.07.13 at 8:04 pm ET
Looks like the words of Kobe Bryant worked wonders on the right shoulder of Dwight Howard.
"We don't have time for it to heal," Bryant told ESPN on Wednesday, a day before the Lakers' showdown with the Celtics in Boston. "We need some urgency."
Howard responded Thursday.
"That's his opinion; that's it," Howard told ESPN. "He's not a doctor. I'm not a doctor. That's his opinion."
Doc Rivers, obviously aware of this dynamic, figured Bryant's words would be enough to get Howard back in the lineup Thursday.
"He's playing," he said without hesitation. "We've only prepared for one way."
Rivers was right as Howard returned from a three-game absence as he deals with a torn labrum in his right shoulder.
Just another turn in the NBA's longest and most prestigious rivalry.
"They still wear that same color. And we wear the same color," Rivers replied when asked about the current state of the rivalry before Thursday's game. "Through all of it, it's still the same thing, you enjoy the game because they are fun. Kobe [Bryant is] there; Kevin [Garnett] and Paul [Pierce] are there. It always will be fun."
Then he threw a good-natured jab at the Lakers.
"It's more, we're just playing right now; we're not dealing with anything," Rivers said a week after losing Rajon Rondo and Jared Sullinger. "They have more firestorms going on. Give them credit, they've won six out of seven through it. In some ways, it may be helping them."
Speaking of big men, Rivers said he's not worried about Kevin Garnett's minutes after scoring 27 points and grabbing 10 rebounds in 32 minutes Wednesday in Toronto.
"It's not a game-to-game thing with Kevin's minutes, it's more the accumulative of the year," Rivers said. "We've had eight overtimes, I think, that hasn't helped at all with him. So it's just, we get through the year and try to keep him as fresh as possible."
Meanwhile… Celtics players presented Rivers with the game ball from his 400th regular-season win as Celtics coach on their flight home from Toronto on Wednesday night. Garnett and Pierce were among those to honor Rivers on the flight, something Rivers acknowledged Thursday.

|Kevin Garnett powers Celtics past Raptors
|02.06.13 at 9:34 pm ET
Kevin Garnett led all five Celtics starters in double-figure scoring with a season-high 27 points and powered a key run at the start of the fourth quarter as the Celtics outlasted the Raptors, 99-93, Wednesday night at Air Canada Centre in Toronto. His turnaround jumper with 46.6 seconds left put Boston up 96-91.
Garnett's three-point play with 8:46 remaining capped a 10-0 run at the start of the final period as the Celtics overcame a sloppy third quarter to win their fifth straight game and improve to 25-23 on the season. Garnett was 11-of-18 from the field and added 10 rebounds in the win.
Paul Pierce had 12 points and 11 rebounds while former Raptor Leandro Barbosa chipped in 14 points off the Boston bench. Courtney Lee (15), Avery Bradley (11) and Brandon Bass (10) also scored in double figures. After dominating the previous four games, the Celtics bench was not a major factor Wednesday but still outscored Toronto's reserves, 24-20.
The Celtics finished the first half on an 11-6 run to take a 50-45 lead. The Celtics scored first in the third quarter to increase their lead to seven, but Rudy Gay then came alive. Gay, who was 8-of-22 from the field, scored 13 of his team-leading 25 in the third.
The Raptors appeared ready to steal the game with a 17-4 run late in the third quarter. The Raptors would outscore the Celtics 34-19 to take a 79-69 lead heading into the final 12 minutes. The Raptors had five of their 11 steals in the quarter as Toronto took command.
But Garnett led a Celtics charge that saw Boston outscore Toronto 30-16 in the final 12 minutes to wrap up a fifth straight win. Barbosa had 12 of his 14 in the final period to help Garnett and the Celtics put the game away.
The Celtics will have little time to rest as they fly back to Boston and take on Kobe Bryant and the Lakers on Thursday at 8 p.m. at TD Garden. The Lakers will not have the services of Pau Gasol, as the Lakers big man was diagnosed with a torn plantar fascia.

|Lakers will take on Celtics without Pau Gasol
|02.06.13 at 9:04 pm ET
Pau Gasol was in Boston Wednesday but not getting ready for a matchup with Kevin Garnett and the Celtics at TD Garden.
Following an MRI, the Lakers big man was diagnosed with a torn plantar fascia in his right foot Wednesday in Boston, sidelining the 7-footer indefinitely, just as the Lakers (23-26) were showing signs of turning around a season that right now has them on the outside looking in on the playoffs.
Gasol felt a pop in his foot Tuesday night late in the Lakers' 92-83 victory over the Brooklyn Nets and Wednesday's exam in Boston confirmed his fears.
While his teammates get ready to take on the Celtics Thursday night at TD Garden, Gasol will fly to Los Angeles to be examined by team physician Steve Lombardo and foot specialist Kenneth Jung. The Lakers announced Wednesday they will give a timeline for Gasol's return after his LA exam. The injury could knock Gasol out for the season if he undergoes surgery.
I'm hoping to recover asap so I can be back with the team and keep fighting until the end of the season. #GoLakers #AlwaysPositive
— Pau Gasol (@paugasol) February 6, 2013
The Lakers are losing Gasol just as it appears they're turning a corner. They come into Boston as winners of six of seven games, including three in a row on their season-long seven-game road trip. The Lakers have played the last three games without center Dwight Howard, who has a torn labrum in his right shoulder, and top backup big man Jordan Hill is out for the season with a bad hip.
Gasol has been dealing with tendinitis in both knees and fasciitis for two months. The four-time All-Star big man also missed five games in January with a concussion. Since then, Gasol largely has been coming off the bench. Gasol is averaging a career-low 13.4 points per game and 8.0 rebounds while playing in just 36 of his team's 49 games.

|Paul Pierce schools Fab Melo 'all day' in 1-on-1 drill in the post
|02.05.13 at 5:55 pm ET
WALTHAM — If you needed any proof that Fab Melo still has a lot to learn (and prove) to make it in the NBA, and that D-League stats don't carry over to the NBA, we submit for your review the following evidence.
Celtics captain Paul Pierce took the opportunity Tuesday before practice began to teach the rookie big man out of Syracuse a thing or two about playing on the low post.
With Jared Sullinger out with season-ending back surgery, Melo was called up from D-League and played just three minutes against the Magic with a steal on Friday but did not seen any action Sunday.
Tuesday we saw a small reason why. Pierce noticed Melo working by himself on low-post moves and came over to give him some real resistance.
Melo missed a shot, double-dribbled and then, while defending Pierce forced a fadeaway that was off-target. But Pierce objected, calling a foul. The next two drives to the basket were baby hooks that found the bottom of the basket. Pierce walked away triumphantly, shouting "all day" to Melo, Celtics coaches and anyone within earshot.
|Doc Rivers is sick and tired of 'silly' trade rumors
|02.05.13 at 5:24 pm ET
WALTHAM — The always media savvy Doc Rivers knows as well as anyone that trade rumors are going to happen in this day and age in the NBA.
But what really gets his goat is when those rumors spring out of nowhere and he's not even remotely familiar with them. With reports swirling that the Clippers may be interested in Kevin Garnett and with Garnett reportedly saying he'd only waive his "no-trade" clause if Paul Pierce were also dealt out of town, Rivers said Tuesday he'd finally heard and seen enough.
"Really, really I would like to say that sometimes, I like you guys [local media], sometimes some of the stuff that happens is just silly. It really is. When I wake up in the morning and I hear a trade rumor I haven't heard in my office that's silly. And that's what happens."
Does he address it with the team?
"I don't even address it," he said before Tuesday's practice before the team left for Wednesday night's game in Toronto. "I really don't. I rarely do. I don't 99.9 percent of the time because some of it is so silly."
The "Inside Track" in the Boston Herald reported Monday that Rivers, Chauncey Billups, Garnett and Pierce had dinner recently as the Clippers were in town to play the Celtics.
"I heard one report, I honestly did, that me, Chauncey, Kevin and Paul had dinner," Rivers said. "I was like, 'Well, I wish I would've known about it. That would've been terrific because I would've made them pay and I could've had a free dinner.' It's just silly what goes on.
"I don't honestly think it's [local media]. I think someone can sit behind a computer and write something. The problem is that you guys have to report on it, which you shouldn't do, but you do and it becomes an issue."
|Kevin Garnett on trade rumors: 'I bleed green, I die green … but it is a business'
|02.05.13 at 1:41 pm ET
WALTHAM — Celtics superstar Kevin Garnett has heard all about the trade rumor that has the Los Angeles Clippers interested in offering Celtics GM Danny Ainge a package that includes Caron Butler if Garnett would only waive his "no-trade" clause.
Garnett has been a Celtics icon since coming to Boston in the summer of 2007, along with Ray Allen, and joining Paul Pierce to form the "Big 3." Last summer, Garnett signed a three-year, $36 million deal that includes a very rare full no-trade clause, meaning he can veto a deal anywhere.
Before Tuesday's practice, Garnett was asked if he would be interested in waiving his no-trade if Ainge came to him with a deal that made sense for everyone.
"Well, Danny made it very, very obvious since Day 1 when he brought Ray and myself here to be aligned with Paul that he was going to do whatever is best for this organization," Garnett said. "He's always made that apparent so I've always understood that. I bleed green, I die green. That's what it is. But it is a business and when that crosses the path, I'll deal with it. But trades are part of this league. Every year you're going to hear certain things. If I were you all, I wouldn't read too much into it."
Garnett has a home in Malibu and the Clippers are considered contenders in the Western Conference, which has led to speculation that he might waive the no-trade clause.
Told Kevin Garnett will not waive no trade unless Pierce is dealt, and then only to LA. Lives in Malibu.
— Shaun Powell (@Powell2daPeople) February 4, 2013
"It's part of the year," Garnett said. "Right after the All-Star, you start to hear things," Garnett said. "Some of it's chatter, some of it's real and you just have to be able to block certain things out, be able to play through certain things. If it's going to happen, it's going to happen. It's out of your control a lot of times. The things you do control, you control as well as you play. Obviously, if a situation comes up where you have to move, you deal with it."
Can this team – as constructed – compete?
"My own personal views on this team, I won't share them," Garnett said. "Management usually makes those decisions on what they feel is best for the organization, and a lot of times the players are just parts, moving, and not decision-making. Danny talks to the key guys here about certain things, and that's cool. He has always given us informative information and been upfront with us. I don't anticipate that changing anytime soon."
Would he be open to going somewhere else?
"If you define his best and what I feel is best, maybe that's different. [Until then], this is what I am," Garnett said tugging his green Celtics practice shirt.
|Three for all: Paul Pierce, Jeff Green lead C's over Clippers
|02.03.13 at 3:41 pm ET
Paul Pierce scored 22 points while Jeff Green and Leandro Barbosa added 14 apiece off the bench as the Celtics outlasted the Clippers, 106-104, Sunday afternoon at TD Garden. Pierce's three as the shot clock expired sealed the win with 2.5 seconds left in the game and helped the Celtics avoid the embarrassment of blowing a 19-point halftime lead. The Celtics finished 11-for-18 from 3-point range while Boston's bench outscored LA's reserves, 52-29, with 23 of those 29 coming from Jamal Crawford.
Jason Terry hit a big shot as the shot clock expired late in the fourth quarter as the Celtics won their fourth straight and moved back over .500 at 24-23 on the season. While the Celtics were playing without Rajon Rondo and Jared Sullinger, the Clippers were without star point guard Chris Paul, missing his seventh game in nine outings with a sore right knee.
Both teams came out on fire in the first quarter. The Celtics started off 8-of-13 from the field while the Clippers hit 6-of-9 to start the game. The Celtics overcame four Clippers dunks in the first quarter to take a 33-30 lead after 12 minutes.
The Celtics turned the defensive screws on the Clippers in the second quarter while staying red-hot themselves. The Celtics scored the first six points of the quarter while Los Angeles didn't get on the board until Lamar Odom's turnaround over four minutes into the quarter. The Celtics forced 15 Clippers turnovers in the first half, including nine in the second quarter. The Celtics managed to turn those 15 turnovers into 24 points and race out to a 59-40 halftime lead.
The Celtics had remarkable balance in the first half, with 10 of their 11 players finding the scoring column. Only rookie Fab Melo, who didn't see the floor, failed to score. Green and Terry led a potent attack off the bench with nine points apiece, combining to go 4-for-5 from the three-point range.
The Clippers responded to open the third, scoring the first eight points to cut the lead back to 11, 59-48. But after Blake Griffin picked up his fourth foul midway through the third, the Celtics, thanks to a pair of responded, building the lead back to 19, 74-55. The Celtics closed the third as they did in the second quarter, on a run. Green and Barbosa hit back-to-back threes and Barbosa hit a top-of-the-key jumper as time expired to give the Celtics a 92-77 lead heading into the fourth quarter. The Celtics were 10-for-14 from long range through three quarters before going ice cold in the fourth. Read the rest of this entry »

Understanding Conspiracy Charges
Our client was charged with Conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). The case was dismissed by the government after it was made clear that the government had prosecuted the case incorrectly.
Conspiracy is often charged in federal cases because it covers a broad range of conduct. To prove a conspiracy, a prosecutor only has to show that two or more people agreed to commit a federal offense, and at least one of the people did something — an "overt act" — to further the illegal agreement. The crime does not have to actually occur. In some federal jurisdictions, however, the government does not even have to prove an overt act. Additionally, in a case in which a person is charged with conspiracy to sell narcotics, the prosecution doesn't have to show that each defendant had drugs in their possession. A federal conspiracy lawyer with experience handling these cases can help you understand the strength of the government's case.
Common Federal Conspiracy Cases
Federal Conspiracy Definitions
The United States Code contains several conspiracy statutes. The general conspiracy statute is contained in 18 U.S.C. Section 371 and makes it illegal to agree with another person to devise a criminal plan and defraud the United States government or to violate other federal laws. In narcotics cases, 21 U.S.C. Section 846 prohibits conspiracies to manufacture, distribute, or possess with intent to distribute unlawful controlled substances.
Fraud is a crime that is often charged along with conspiracy. Fraud is an attempt to gain money or value by a false representation of fact. One example would be an individual or health care provider misleading an insurance company in order to receive unearned benefits or profits — as in health care fraud, Medicare fraud, or Medicaid fraud. Prosecutors can also seek fraud charges against someone under a misrepresentation theory. Under this scenario, a prosecutor could, for example, seek to prove that the seller of a product defrauded a purchaser by misrepresenting the nature of the product, such as offering a used car as "new." Fraud schemes can sometimes be perpetrated by more than one person, which is why conspiracy charges are frequently sought together along with federal fraud charges. If you have been accused of fraud or if you suspect you are being investigated for involvement in a fraud scheme, contact an experienced white collar criminal defense attorney who can assist in defending you with a fraud case. More information about fraud can be found here.
Oftentimes, when a large number of people are charged in a conspiracy there are often alleged participants that have never met nor spoken to one another and who often do not know each other. In such cases it is not uncommon for someone who played a comparatively minor role in an agreement to be accused in the larger drug trafficking conspiracy with other players who allegedly had a much more significant role.
The law of conspiracy allows prosecutors to bring in much more evidence than they would otherwise be able to admit in cases where conspiracy is not charged. For example, the statements of alleged co-conspirators are often admitted without the usual safeguards that disfavor admitting co-defendant statements into evidence against the other defendants.
If you are facing federal conspiracy and/or fraud charges, or you have reason to believe you are under investigation for such charges, you should immediately contact a dedicated federal conspiracy attorney. Call Terry Eaton today to schedule a consultation in which he will be able to explain the process that you face and provide you with the information that you will need to determine your best course of action. Call (202) 600-9900 to schedule your initial, no-cost consultation.

Friday morning federal headlines - August 26
Friday - 8/26/2011, 10:33am EDT
The Morning Federal Newscast is a daily compilation of the stories you hear Federal Drive hosts Tom Temin and Amy Morris discuss throughout the show each day. The Newscast is designed to give FederalNewsRadio.com users more information about the stories you hear on the air.
- For hundreds of miles, as many as 65 million people along the East Coast — from North Carolina, to Virginia, Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, Boston and beyond — are all waiting for Hurricane Irene. And FEMA, which is already staging in and around areas that will likely be affected, is waiting too. The National Incident Management Assistance Teams are on the ground in North Carolina, Virginia and South Carolina and expect to travel to other areas along the East Coast, too. President Obama has already declared an emergency for North Carolina so DHS and FEMA can coordinate all disaster relief efforts. (Federal News Radio)
- Federal employees will be reimbursed at higher rates when they travel to some cities. The General Services Administration announced that 2012 lodging rates for feds traveling to D.C. will increase by about $15 — up to $226 per day during the peak travel months. GSA said per diem rates will vary by location, and by season. For example, the highest daily lodging rate is $296 dollars for travel to Vail, Colorado in December. New York City is a close second, at 295 dollars in September through December. In most cases, the new rates for high-cost cities will be $10-$20 a day more than current rates. (GSA)
- Allegations of hiring abuses are being waged against the Housing and Urban Development's chief human capital officer. HUD confirms it's investigating charges of illegal hiring practices by its CHCO Janie Payne. The agency's inspector general IG is looking at whether Payne exerted her influence so her daughter could be hired at HUD. The Department has been a model in government when it comes to reforming its hiring process -— an effort led by Payne. HUD says they see the investigation as a was to ensure everyone of the integrity of their HR system.Payne is on paid administrative during the investigation. (Federal News Radio)
- Veterans Affairs is purchasing more of an ineffective drug for PTSD treatment, NextGov reports. VA researchers recently published a study that found the drug Risperidone was no more effective than a placebo in reducing PTSD symptoms. However, the VA awarded a new contract for more than200,000 bottles of the drug earlier this month despite the findings. The drug has not been approved by the FDA for treating PTSD. (NextGov)
- NASA's watchdog has said the space agency acted properly when it picked new homes for the retired space shuttles. The shuttles were awarded to museums in Los Angeles, Cape Canaveral, New York the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum's Udvar-Hazy Center in northern Virginia. Two losing cities — Houston and Dayton — asked for an investigation.
Inspector General Paul Martin's report says there is no evidence that the decision was tainted by political influence or anything else improper. The decision was based on attendance, population, funding and the facility. (NASA)
- The Transportation Security Administration has joined the list of agencies that want to offer early retirement and buyout packages this fall.
TSA has asked the Office of Personnel Management to extend their authority to offer the early outs to eligible employees from October 2011 to September 2013. (Federal News Radio)
- There's new scrutiny over the Congressional Pension Plan. Rep. Mike Coffman (R-Colo.) said he plans to introduce a bill reducing retirement benefits for lawmakers when Congress returns next month, according to GovExec. Coffman's bill would cut the defined benefit portion. This new proposal would not affect thrift savings plans as previous bills have. Other proposals have also called for longer service before accruing retirement benefits and pushing back the dispersal age to 65. Lawmakers currently begin accruing pension benefits after five years of service. (GovExec)
- You don't know what they look like. You don't know where they are. But a network of detectors monitoring the air in thirty cities nationwide can find deadly viruses before anybody even gets sick. The system is called Biowatch. It was created by government researchers as an early warning system for bioterror attacks. It alerts authorities of a release of deadly germs. Authorities can then evacuate areas and administer pre-emptive vaccinations. The location of the detectors is secret, but researchers say the system covers eighty percent of the nation's population.

Actor and stand-up comedian Kavi Shastri who teamed up with Vir Das to form the company Weirdass is gearing up to make a comeback on TV, this time as a host. The British-Indian actor made his TV debut in the YRF show Kismat followed by Rishta.com after which he disappeared from the telly scene. Says Kavi, "My first show was unique and though it didn't do well here it was received well in UK and Middle East. It was a well-written show and I felt it was my moral responsibility to do something that stood out. I was choosy about my work. I need a certain amount of reality in fiction too!"
Now, four years after his debut, Kavi is returning in a new avatar - as the host of Love By Chance, a romcom inspired by real love stories with an underlying theme of serendipity. "I believe that love happens by chance. That's how I met my wife Sherryl too. I was at Bandra's Mount Mary Church and wasn't looking for love. But when I bumped into her, I was struck," says Kavi who is a romantic at heart. On the show too, he will not only be the narrator but an integral part of the stories. "I will be travelling with the protagonists and you will see the story through my eyes and yes the humour quotient makes it more appealing," he explains.
While he was away from TV, Kavi did a couple of films Love Aaj Kal and Aurangzeb, which had him in a negative role. "Lot of people strive to do lead roles but I don't think in terms of big or small. The concept has to appeal to me," says the actor, who will be seen next in Amit Sahni Ki List and a British film. "It's great to do a film in UK after eight years. I have been brought up and trained there," he smiles.

Management Comments:
"Fiscal 2010 was the most successful year in the history of Butler National Corporation. We set new highs in both sales and profitability during a challenging economic time. Our Avionics and Modifications segments led the way generating over four million dollars in operating profit before corporate allocation. Boot Hill Casino and Resort opened December 15, 2009 and we believe this business and our other business segments are well positioned to grow shareholder value.
"Our revenue for fiscal 2010 was $32.6 million, an increase of 80.1% from fiscal 2009 revenue of $18.1 million. Net Income for fiscal 2010 was $2.9 million, an increase of 249% from fiscal 2009 net income of $829,000.
"During Fiscal 2010, we invested approximately $1.7 million toward the development and acquisition of new products. We feel this expenditure for the design and development engineering, testing, and certification of new products may stabilize our long-term revenues and enhance our profits.
"We are moving confidently into fiscal year 2011, planning to build on our success. We believe we are well positioned for the future as we focus on serving the needs of our customers and enhancing shareholder value," commented Clark D. Stewart, President of the Company.
Business Segment Highlights
Aircraft Modifications:
Revenue from Aircraft Modifications segment for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2010, was $13.5 million, an increase of 15.1% from fiscal 2009 with revenue of $11.7 million. The modifications segment had an operating profit of $2.1 million in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2010, an increase of 6.7% over fiscal 2009 operating profit of $2.0 million.
Considering the current economic conditions and its relationship to the current retail and wholesale aircraft markets we reclassified our aircraft inventory as long-term assets beginning August 1, 2009. Depreciation is calculated over the useful life of five years. The reclassification of aircraft to a long-term asset resulted in additional depreciation expense of approximately $561,000, reducing our operating profit for fiscal 2010.
During the past few years, we have seen a significant increase in aircraft camera modification. Several custom engineering projects were completed in fiscal 2010 which accounted for our change in revenue. As the economy grows, aircraft owners may elect to update, modify, and purchase business aircraft. A shift to business aircraft ownership positively impacts our aircraft modification revenues.
Revenue from Avionics for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2010 was $5.5 million, an increase of 144% from fiscal 2009 with revenue of $2.3 million. The avionics segment had an operating profit of $2.2 million in fiscal 2010, an increase of $1.8 million over fiscal 2009 operating profit of $338,000. The increase in operating profit is directly related to the significant increases in revenue. The work in process was approximately $165,000 at April 30, 2010 compared to work in process of approximately $1,324,000 at April 30, 2009. Management expects increased revenue for the fuel system protection devices when regulatory requirements necessitate the TSD, GFI, and other classic aviation products.
Monitoring Services:
Revenue from Monitoring Services decreased from $1.8 million for fiscal 2009 to $1.6 million for fiscal 2010. The monitoring services had an operating profit of $297,000 in fiscal 2010, a decrease of 16.1% compared with fiscal 2009 operating profit of $354,000. During fiscal 2010, we maintained a relatively level volume of long-term contracts with municipalities. We anticipate increases in revenue from additional lift station rehabilitations over the next three to four years. Revenue fluctuates due to the introduction of new products and services and the related installations of these types of products. Our contracts with our two largest customers have been renewed through fiscal 2011. We believe the service business has had revenue stability over the past few years and we expect this to continue.
Corporate/Professional Services Including Gaming Operations:
Revenue from Management Services related to gaming, other real estate development, and on site contract management of gaming establishments for fiscal 2010 was $1.7 million compared to $1.3 million for fiscal 2009, an increase of 31%. Operating profits from management services related to gaming decreased from $1.1 million for fiscal 2009 to $353,000 for fiscal 2010. Additional operating profits of $496,000 can be attributed to the sale of 104 acres of property developed for the casino in Dodge City, Kansas. We incurred additional expenses of approximately $1,259,000 to adjust reserves related to our Indian gaming endeavors.
As of July 16, 2010, our backlog totaled approximately $12.9 million. The backlog includes firm, pending, and contract orders, which may not be completed within the next fiscal year. The backlog includes orders to be delivered after fiscal year 2011 in the amount of approximately $2.8 million. This is consistent with the industry in which modifications services and related contracts may take several months and sometimes years to complete. There can be no assurance that all orders will be completed or that some may ever commence.
Our Business:
Butler National Corporation operates in the Aerospace and Services business segments. The Aerospace segment focuses on the manufacturing of support systems for "Classic" commercial and military aircraft including the Butler National TSD for the Boeing 737 and 747 Classic aircraft, switching equipment for Boeing McDonnell Douglas Aircraft, weapon control systems for Boeing Helicopter and performance enhancement structural modifications for Learjet, Cessna, Dassault and Beechcraft business aircraft. Services include electronic monitoring of water pumping stations, temporary employee services, gaming services and administrative management services.

R&B star Amerie is this season's latest celebrity bride to jump the broom!
The "1 Thing" singer wed Lenny Nicholson during an island ceremony at the Viceroy Anguilla Resort. After more than seven years together, the happy couple had to do it big.
Amerie and Lenny hosted a weekend of events for their guests including a welcome dinner.
Bucking standard garb for a beachy destination wedding, Amerie donned a Monique Lhuillier dress with a cathedral length train. The bride couldn't walk down the aisle without something blue, so she slipped into a pair of blue Yves Saint Laurent Tribute sandals. Amerie capped off the luxe look with a modern updo adorned with diamonds and pearls.
"This is such an exciting time for me. This is my first marriage and I am over the moon," Amerie told People of her big day. "I look forward to a loving and enduring marriage. This day couldn't come any sooner for me. I am beyond thrilled. I will remember this day forever."
After the ceremony, officiated by Amerie's pastor Rev. Phillip R. Knight, Sr., guests got to enjoy a lavish reception. DJ Konflikt kept the party going as attendees nibbled on a seven-tier cake from Yann Chocolate. Each layer of the sea foam green cake was a different flavor picked especially by the newlyweds.
Amerie and Lenny are currently enjoying their honeymoon at the Viceroy's Romance Villa, which comes complete with its own private beach.
