A co-founder of internet giant You Tube is sharing his
Dunedin experience with the world.
The video-sharing website was founded by Chad Hurley, Steve
Chen, and Jawed Karim, and later sold to Google for $US1.65
billion ($NZ1.91 billion) in November 2006.
Mr Hurley and Mr Chen have since set up the company AVOS,
which has offices in California, Beijing and Dunedin.
''At AVOS we are building a common technology platform to
help developers create fun and beautiful apps faster than
ever,'' the website notes.
Mr Hurley, who did not respond to a request for an interview,
posted pictures of himself in Dunedin last week.
On the social media site Twitter he tweeted pictures of the
AVOS Princes St location, ''Chilling at the New Zealand
office!'' and of the Dunedin Railway Station, ''Train to
The internet mogul also tweeted to his 541,000 followers
pictures of Baldwin St, and two pictures from Moeraki,
including one of himself on a Moeraki boulder.
The holiday snaps are in esteemed company, with recent
pictures shared by Mr Hurley including a lunch date at the
White House, at an Oscars after party, and with basketball
star Michael Jordan.

FORMATTING NOTE: Notes, such at this one, provide additional
nonessential information that the reader may skip without missing
anything essential. The primary purpose of these non-essential
notes is to convey information about the rationale of this document,
or to place this document in the proper historical or evolutionary
context. Readers whose sole purpose is to construct a conformant
implementation may skip such information. However, it may be of use
to those who wish to understand why we made certain design choices.
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in
this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC-2119 [2].
3. Introduction
Humans have had to contend with having multiple messaging systems
for different messaging modes. For example, I have a voice mail
account for voice messages, a fax store-and-forward service for fax
messages, and an e-mail account for Internet messages.
The IETF has successfully completed a considerable body of work
extending the highly successful non-real-time text messaging
service, SMTP. Extending the mail system for multimedia payloads
with MIME enabled the transport of voice and fax. The VPIM and IFAX
work groups, respectively, have produced a number of RFCs that focus
on voice mail and fax messaging and transport. This draft examines
the requirements for unified messaging systems.
There has been an evolution of using Internet Mail standards [3] for
the carriage of media-rich messages. MIME [4] introduces the basic
capability for transporting media-rich messages using Internet Mail.
Then there were a number of successful efforts to use Internet Mail
for supporting the transport of various media-specific message types
within closed environments. Leveraging this success, people started
to see how to integrate the closed environments into the Internet
Mail structure. The ultimate goal is Unified Messaging: a single
infrastructure, mailbox, and set of interfaces for a user to get all
of their messages.
The Voice Profile for Internet Mail defines a method for
transporting voice messages between voice messaging systems using
Internet Mail [5]. Likewise, the Extended Mode Fax [6] defines a
method for transporting fax messages between fax messaging terminals
using Internet Mail.
Simple Mode Fax [7] describes how one can deliver facsimile
documents using the Internet Mail infrastructure, including standard
Internet Mail clients. Said differently, the document brought
facsimile into the Internet Mail domain.
Burger Informational - Expires August 2002 2
UM Requirements February 2002 Likewise, Internet Voice Mail [8] describes how one can generate and deliver voice messages using the Internet Mail infrastructure, including standard Internet Mail clients. With this set of developments, we are now in a position to gather these standards and develop new protocols where needed to deliver true unified messaging. 4. General Requirements 4.1. Reuse Existing Protocols To the extent feasible, the unified messaging framework SHOULD use existing protocols whenever possible. 4.2. Maintain Existing Protocol Integrity In meeting requirement 4.1, the unified messaging framework MUST NOT redefine the semantics of an existing protocol. Said differently, we will not break existing protocols. 4.3. Reception Context When the user receives a message, that message SHOULD receive the treatment expected by the sender. For example, if the sender believes he is sending a voice message, voice message semantics should prevail. 4.4. Sending Context When the user sends a message, she SHOULD be able to specify the message context. That is, whether the network should treat the message as an Internet Mail message, voice message, video message, etc. 5. Infrastructure Preservation A major goal for the unified messaging framework is to not change any existing Internet infrastructure. For example, the behavior of mail transfer agents (MTAs) should not change. Likewise, the behavior of existing mail clients should not change. Messages created in a unified messaging context MUST NOT require changes to existing mail clients. However, there may be a loss in service in certain circumstances. The unified messaging framework MUST be able to handle messages created in a non-unified messaging context, for example, a simple, RFC 822 [9] text message. Burger Informational - Expires August 2002 3
UM Requirements February 2002 6. Voice Requirements The expectation of voice mail users are described in [8] and [10]. To summarize, voice mail users have heightened expectations of privacy, delivery confirmation, and addressing than Internet Mail users. On the retrieval side, there are significant real-time requirements for retrieving a message for voice playback. More than any other media type, including video, voice is extremely sensitive to variations in playback latency. The unified messaging framework MUST address the real-time needs of voice. 7. Fax Requirements Fax users have a particular expectation that is a challenge for unified messaging. When a person sends a fax, their expectation is the user has received the message upon successful transmission. This clearly is not the case for Internet Mail. OPEN ISSUE: How will we address this? 8. Video Requirements Video mail has one outstanding feature: Video messages are large! The unified messaging framework MUST scale for very large messages. 9. Security Considerations Security will be a very important part of unified messaging. In addition to the security issues present in Internet Mail, people have higher expectations for Voice and Fax messaging. The goal, wherever possible, is to preserve the semantics of existing messaging systems and meet the expectations of users with respect to security and reliability. 10.

BERLIN, Germany (CNN) - A supermarket staff in Berlin, Germany got a surprise earlier this week when they went to unpack a new shipment of bananas.
Instead of just bananas, they found 140 kilos of cocaine.
German police said the drug smugglers likely made a "logistical error," which sent the goods to the wrong location.
The total haul is estimated at more than $8 million .

text: The Spitting Image wiki last edited by fiye on 12/05/14 12:53PM View full history OverviewBotha peeing on Gorbi (Amstrad CPC)Spitting Image is Domark's attempt to make a licensed game out of a popular satirical puppet TV series of the same name which aired on the ITV network across the UK and featured puppet caricatures of celebrities prominent during the 1980s and 1990s. The result is a more or less funny fighting game in which the combatants are caricatured world leaders of the late 1980s.Although nicely packaged and with nicely drawn and animated cartoon-style characters the game lacks in playabilty due to the restrictions of character moves. Programmed by Walking Circles the game was available for most models of popular 8-bit and 16-bit home computers at the time.StoryThe story found in the intro screens and the manual goes like this: "Within the next seven years a world war will take place. A war so great that even the Swiss will get envolved this time. A war so terrible the Italians have already surrendered. One leader will emerge from this war to rule the world. It is your task to stop this leader and SAVE THE WORLD. These are the six challengers for world power...."GameplayCharacter selection (C64)First thing that is seen after the intro is the character selection screen. Here the world is depicted as a time bomb with the fuse already burning and the animated caricatures of the six leaders are arranged around the screen. There are six playable leaders:Groovy Gorbi (Mikhail Gorbachev)Ronald MacReagan (Ronald Reagan)Mrs T (Margaret Thatcher) His Holy Coolness (Pope John Paul II)Adolf Botha (PW Botha)Mr & Mr Ayatollah (Ayatollah Kohmeini)Her Royal Refness (Queen Elizabeth II) - Appears at all times in a little window/postage stamp as a commentator and referee.The idea is to destroy the credibility of these six most likely candidates for world domination by getting them to beat each other up. The game starts by picking which two leaders are going to fight it out next and the second leader chosen is the one the player controls. The scene then switches to a background appropriate to the one leader you selected as your opponent and the fight begins. So if Mrs. T (Margaret Thatcher) was chosen as the opponent the fight will end up on Downing Street Number 10.Sidekicks of Mrs T and Mr & Mr Ayatollah (Atari ST)Fighting moves are controlled by joystick or keyboard and include jumping, ducking, hits to head, hits to body and hits to feet. Every successful hit knocks a chunk off the fighter's energy bar.Each leader has also his or her own special move and can even call in a sidekick who attacks the opponent with various projectiles, such as condoms and whiskey bottles.Once a leader has been beaten five times they have lost all credibility and is out of the game. When the player returns to the character selection screen the beaten leader is shown as a skull. Another two leaders are then chosen and the whole process is repeated.When five of the six leaders have been defeated, the remaining character has to fight the mysterious leader. The lights go out and the player must face the ultimate challenge, mud-wrestling with that mystery opponent.

Six specialties at UNC Hospitals ranked among nation's best by U.S. News & World Report
CHAPEL HILL – Six medical specialties offered at the University of North Carolina Hospitals rank among the top 50 programs of their kind nationwide, reports the July 23/July 30 issue of U.S. News & World Report magazine.
According to U.S. News, only 173 hospitals nationwide out of 5,462 that were evaluated scored highly enough to be ranked in one or more specialties.
To be eligible for ranking in 12 of the 16 specialties ranked by U.S. News, hospitals had to meet any of three standards: membership in the Council of Teaching Hospitals, affiliation with a medical school, or availability of at least six out of 13 advanced services such as image-guided radiation therapy and robotic surgery. This year, more than three quarters of all hospitals failed to meet this requirement.
The UNC Hospitals programs, and their top-50 rankings, are:
- Cancer, 40
- Ear, Nose & Throat, 38
- Gynecology, 24
- Kidney Disease, 28
- Respiratory Disorders, 25
- Urology, 43
The magazine unveiled the rankings today (Friday, July 13) for its 18th annual "America's Best Hospitals" issue, which will appear on newsstands July 16. UNC Hospitals has been included in the rankings for the last 15 years in a row.
What follows are brief descriptions of each of UNC's ranked programs.
CANCER (ranked 40):
Cancer care at UNC is coordinated through the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center by Dr. Richard Goldberg, associate director and physician-in-chief of the North Carolina Cancer Hospital. The Center, established in 1975, is headed by Dr. Shelton Earp, director, and is one of only 40 National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers. UNC Lineberger holds two Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) grants, one of eight in the U.S. for breast cancer and one of four in the U.S. for GI cancers.
EAR, NOSE AND THROAT (ranked 38):
The Department of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery, headed by Dr. Harold C. Pillsbury III, has a long history of excellence dating back to the opening of N.C. Memorial Hospital in 1952. In recent years the department has become known as a leader in cochlear implant surgery, which enables many deaf people to regain a functional level of hearing.
GYNECOLOGY (ranked 24):
Gynecology services at UNC Hospitals are housed in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, headed by Dr. Daniel Clarke-Pearson. The department is known as a leader in areas such as advanced laparoscopy and gynecologic surgery, treatment of gynecologic cancers and maternal-fetal medicine.
KIDNEY DISEASE (ranked 28):
Patients with kidney problems receive excellent care through UNC's Division of Nephrology and Hypertension, headed by Dr. Ronald Falk. Care for kidney patients is provided in seven outpatient clinics, plus the UNC Hospitals kidney and kidney transplant wards and community-based dialysis units in Burlington, Carrboro, Sanford, Siler City, Yanceyville and Pittsboro.
RESPIRATORY DISORDERS (ranked 25)
The Division of Pulmonary Critical Care Medicine, headed by Dr. James Donohue, offers a broad array of clinical service in the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary and critical care disorders. UNC is recognized as a leading center for cystic fibrosis research and treatment and for lung transplantation. The division also provides treatment for sleep disorders, sarcoidosis, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency and pulmonary hypertension. The faculty and staff also have considerable expertise and programs for common pulmonary problems, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, smoking cessation, pulmonary fibrosis and pulmonary infections, including those due to bacteria and mycobacteria.
UROLOGY (ranked 43):
Urology services at UNC are provided by the Division of Urologic Surgery, headed by Dr. Culley Carson. The division's faculty have expertise in all areas of clinical urology, and combine up-to-date knowledge of cutting-edge therapies with a solid understanding of standard practices.

29: Breeding Basics 1: Creating Your Own Bloodline
The purpose of animal breeding, in my case breeding pomeranians, is to create a superior specimen as close to the breed standard as possible. The Pomeranian Breed Standard is the Bible of Pomeranians. It specifies the details of what a Pomeranian should look like, how big it should be, what kind of coat it should have, how it should move, etc etc etc.
Your breeding should be progressing closer towards this objective generation after generation of breeding. Virtues are enhanced whilst faults and problems are weeded out.
Unlike human pro-creation which is based on love and relationships, breeding animals or animal husbandry is more non-sentimental objective attitude when it comes to improving your stock. There should be lesser room for sentimentality but rather a decisive focus of your reaching objective…which is getting closer to the breed standard. In the process, participants in this venture, create their own kennel name and bloodline which they could call their own and be proud of.
One of the main tools of breeding is inbreeding and linebreeding. Inbreeding is breeding very close relatives like father to daughter, son to mother, half brother to half sister, or even full brother to full sister. Linebreeding is breeding more distant relatives like grandfather to grand-daughter, grandmother to grandson, uncle to niece, auntie to nephew, first cousins, and so on.
These close and not so close relatives are bred to create a certain predictability/uniformity in the resulting litter, the objective oftentimes is resurrecting a favorite dog. It takes three generations of continuous linebreeding/inbreeding to create a strain or your own bloodline ….this would mean a certain look that you can call your own. This would also mean generations of breeding involving years before you can call what you have bred your own bloodline.
Accordingly, anyone who imports/or buys a dog cannot claim "bloodline" credit for the dog he imported because that is really the bloodline from the kennel it came from. The resulting litter of that dog with another bitch will still be hardly your own bloodline. If the breeding is linebreeding/inbreeding, then that breeding is still the bloodline of kennel of that common ancestor. It is only after being responsible for the combinations of three generations of continuous linebreeding/inbreeding on a common ancestors or relatives of that common ancestors …plus infusing bloodlines of other related or unrelated dogs that you create your own bloodline.
In between these generations of linebreeding and inbreeding, you may have to outcross. Outcrossing is breeding a totally unrelated partner to your stock, or a very distant relative. Oftentimes, it is defined as having no common relations for more than five generations. You do this because of the following reasons: 1.) a certain fault is emerging making it necessary to find a new partner to clean up that problem since another principle in breeding is not to double up on a fault, 2.) a certain weakness is occurring because of the close breeding and as such, it has been said that you have at least 25% new blood to keep your breeding program strong and healthy,. 3.) a certain virtue is desired to enhance your breeding program, such as, a thicker coat, a triple AAA personality, etc.
As you breed your own best in show dog or favorite dog, you eventually use this dog as the basis of your linebreeding and inbreeding, thereby, eventually, creating your own new strain or bloodline.
And so, the game begins. It is like experimental cooking…a little salt, a little spice….which is like choosing the partner for bitch in season.
Pictured above is my favorite Pomeranian, Ph HOF Am Tha Ch Canton Bravestar. He is six generation of my breeding and a good representation of the canton bloodline.

Hello my bitch has just had her first litter of puppies should i keep any from this litter to help me start a bloodline?
Husband and I have two of the most amazing behaved dogs we've both ever owned. A pure bred Mastiff and a pure bred Czech Shepherd. My mastiff female came out with a long more fox like nose instead of the squishy wrinkly nose most Mastiffs get, I prefer this look to the typical bulky mastiff look.
Our goal is to bred our Shep. and Mastiff for Mast-herd (or Sheptiff) pups
Could you further break down how to generate your own line? I don't quite understand
We eventually want a breed like the Labradoodle, a now recognized independent breed
Hi! Very informative blog! I couldn't help but wonder, though. A lot of sources have suggested that inbreeding should never be done because the possibilities of abnormalities surfacing in the puppies would be very huge. Is that really the case or are they just misconceptions? I'm an aspiring breeder myself, and it's my first time to hear that inbreeding is okay...and from a respectable breeder, too!
This blog is very helpful and has brought to light some new possibilities that I have not heard of before, such as using inbreeding constructively. I am wanting to create a line of working GSD's using dogs from two different bloodlines that I have worked with for a while. How many dogs (bitches and sires) would you recommend that I would need to use to get the bloodline I want without any abnormalities from irresponsible inbreeding?
I have learn a few just right stuff here. Certainly value bookmarking for
revisiting. I surprise how a lot effort you place to create this kind of fantastic informative web site.
This is the perfect webpage for everyone who hopes to understand
this topic. You know so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I actually will need to…HaHa).
You definitely put a new spin on a topic that has been written about
for years. Excellent stuff, just excellent!

Qaeda chief calls for US attacks, economic boycott
More News from Agence France-Presse
WASHINGTON – Al-Qaeda chief Ayman al-Zawahiri, in a speech marking the 12th anniversary of 9/11, called Thursday for attacks on the United States and a boycott of the world's largest economy.
A summary and translated English excerpts of the roughly 72-minute address was made available by the SITE Intelligence Group.
The speech was posted on jihadi forums a day after America held ceremonies in honor of the nearly 3,000 people killed in the attacks of September 11, 2001.
"We should bleed America economically by provoking it to continue in its massive expenditure on its security, for the weak point of America is its economy, which has already begun to stagger due to the military and security expenditure," Zawahiri said according to the SITE translation.
"And keeping America in tension and anticipation only costs a few disparate attacks here and there, meaning as we defeated it in the gang warfare in Somalia, Yemen, Iraq and Afghanistan, so we should follow it with that war on its own land," he added.
Zawahiri went on to say that these strikes could be "done by one brother or a few of the brothers" and that it was worth waiting for the right moment in order to mount a large-scale attack.
"With these strikes, we must monitor and lie in wait and seize any opportunity to land a large strike on it, even if it takes years of patience for this," he said.
Zawahiri also referenced the twin bomb blasts at the Boston marathon in April that left three dead and scores wounded and maimed.
"The Boston incident confirms to the Americans the extent of their lying and tricking of themselves, and their arrogance from accepting the truth that is as bright as the sun, which is that they are not facing individuals, organizations or groups, but they are facing an uprising Ummah [Muslim community], that rose in jihad to defend its soul, dignity and capabilities," he said.
According to the SITE summary, Zawahiri also urged jihadists in war-torn Syria not to cooperate with non-Islamists.

Police suspect LA man was lured into NYC ambush
Woodard had been due back in court on Jan. 22 following his arrest by LA County sheriff's deputies in West Hollywood in April on a felony cocaine possession charge. He had previously pleaded not guilty.
Court records show that in December 2009, Woodard pleaded no contest in the Los Angeles suburb of Torrance to a misdemeanor charge of hit-and-run driving. He was sentenced to three years of probation and a day in jail. However, his probation was terminated in January 2011.
In 2008, he pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor charges of grand theft of property. Prosecutors said he stole items on Feb. 26, 2008, from two upscale markets - a Whole Foods Market and a Gelson's - in Beverly Hills. He was sentenced to nine days of jail and 200 hours of community service.
Woodard also was issued a misdemeanor battery summons in September 2004 after a backstage scuffle with a security officer at a concert at the Mandalay Bay resort on the Las Vegas Strip.
The records show Woodard failed to appear in Las Vegas Justice Court in October 2004 and a warrant was issued for his arrest. He was arrested in April 2008 in Las Vegas, based on the warrant. After pleading guilty, he was given credit for time served and released.

New rules, healthy lobster
With the closures in place, the Department of Fish and Game began creating a plan specifically for spiny lobsters called the Lobster Fishery Management Plan. Over the past year, a committee has been discussing the best ways to better regulate the lobster fishery.
Working on the committee are commercial and recreational fishing members, environmentalists, marine scientists and fish and game staff. While throwing all of the different stakeholders of the lobster fishery and environmental groups in one room could have turned into finger-pointing, the consensus from committee members was an overall desire to get the fishery in the best place for the future.
Dana Murray, a coastal research scientist with Heal the Bay, attended a number of meetings and saw a group work with one goal in mind; keep the fishery sustainable.
"It seemed that the fishermen understood that the call to create the Lobster Fishery Management Plan wasn't because the fishery was doing poorly, or because it was doing well; it was simply the right thing to do," Murray said.
"The classic model for other fisheries so far has been to fish it until it's nearly gone, then try to perform CPR on the fishery until it's revived," Ray said, who has been keeping tabs with committee members through the lobster plan process. "This is a better approach."
After nine meetings over the past year, the group came up with a list of regulations and ideas to help preserve the California spiny lobster and keep the fishery healthy.
The list of proposals includes limiting the number of traps each commercial boat can have to 300, limiting the catch total for recreational fisherman to 70 lobsters per year, and shrinking the number of hoop nets fished per person from five to four.
The proposals would bring limits to both the commercial and recreational side, whereas before there was no trap limits and no annual catch limits.
Currently, around 70,000 to 100,000 commercial traps could be along California's shore at any time during the lobster season, but with the 300-trap limit, the total cap could be set at 43,000 in the coming years.
"Not having all of those traps out there in the water will be a benefit to everyone but the commercial guys," said Paul Romanowski, a 20-year recreational lobster diver on the committee. "After this, nobody can say the commercial fishermen were greedy. They made enormous concessions."

Actress Bhagyashree and her entrepreneur husband Himalaya Sassani were planning to launch their 24-year-old son Abhimaanyu as a hero last year. Apparently, due to dearth of substantial offers, the plan never took off. However, if sources are to be believed, none other than Salman Khan is helping his former co-star's son to make a place in Bollywood.
Says a source, "He was to get launched last year but the offers were not good enough. That was when Bhagyashree turned to her Maine Pyar Kiya co-star Salman Khan for help. Salman has been known to help many youngsters including Arjun Kapoor and Katrina Kaif who are stars today. Salman has promised to take Abhimaanyu under his wings and is guiding him about the do's and don'ts of acting. The superstar has told Abhimaanyu to work out and build his body and may even launch him in one of his home productions. However, everything is being strictly kept under wraps right now."
The aspiring actor has taken dancing, acting and action classes along with assisting director Rohan Sippy for Dum Maaro Dum and Nautanki Salla. He has also done a course from
The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute and Anupam Kher's Actor Prepares.
Abhimaanyu is friends with Tiger Shroff who apparently advised him to talk to the star. "Salman has launched two star children, Sunil Shetty's daughter Athiya and Aditya Pancholi's son Suraj in his home production. He has been very supportive to Tiger too," the source adds.
When contacted Bhagyashree says, "At this point of time we would rather remain low-key. Abhimaanyu is working hard towards his goal but it's pointless to come into the limelight and then fade away, so let there be an appropriate time. When it is closer to his goal I will personally call you up and tell you. Just give it a little time. I haven't spoken to anyone so far."

Re: Zions in March
You should be able to do almost all the trails in March. Some of the higher level ones may still have snow, but if you've never been then you should need to do those anyway.
I've often been to Zion during spring break and have hiked all the main canyon trails: Emerald Pools, Angels Landing, Hidden Canyon, Riverside Walk. As well as Canyon Overlook, Watchman, Pa'rus.
The Narrows water would be cold, but you could probably do it, just get dry suits from Zion Adventure Co first.
Nights will probably be cold and early morning as well you'll want gloves and coats. Depending on the weather you may have warm days or rain...you never know, plan for anything though snow would be unlikely.

Re: Zions in March
I have visited Zion in both Feb. and March, and found that one could do a lot of hiking in both months. When we visited in mid-March, almost all trails were open, and the weather was pleasant and mild. It was, however, above average temperatures while we were visiting. Generally the Average temperatures in in March range from 54 daytime highs, to 28 night time lows. We were lucky, as our daytime hights were in the 60s when we visited in March. Plan to do a lot of hiking, but bring clothing to cover both mild or cold temperatures. Layers would be good.
The nearby down of Springdale, which is just outside the park, has a nice 3-D IMAX which can be fun. To see what is playing at the IMAX, visit their web page at I love the beauty of Zion, and the wonderful scenic areas to hike and explore, plus have enjoyed watching a number of films in Springdale's IMAX theater.

Need to know: Unhappy bankersStrange jobsGoldman dress code
Sometimes, goodwill can be a drag.
Commonwealth Bank of Australia analyst Ross Curran reckons QBE Insurance Group is being weighed down by 6.2 billion Australian dollars (US$6.3 billion) of intangible assets which it has accrued from more than 140 acquisitions in the past decade.
Though A$461 million has been amortized over the last ten years, CBA points out more than half QBE shareholders' equity is now intangible, which dampens reported return on equity, or ROE.
CLSA analyst Jan van der Schalk reckons QBE — Australia's largest insurer — needs to raise between A$500 million and 750 million Australian dollars (US$784 million).
In a note to clients, Mr. van der Schalk reiterated his Sell recommendation and price target of A$11.00 a share, and urged the group's new chief executive John Neal to raise capital.
"It is unlikely to happen," the broker mused, but noted QBE could use a raising to shore up reserves, reduce the "stretched" nature of the balance sheet and, at a minimum, generate additional investment returns.
Early Wednesday, Deal Journal Australia flagged QBE's bolt-on acquisitions were imminent and so they were.
The insurer has agreed to acquire the general insurance businesses of HSBC Argentina Holdings and Hang Seng Bank, both subsidiaries of HSBC Holdings, for US$420 million to be funded from internal resources. Notably, QBE is currently completing a A$600 million equity raising.
In Australia, continuous disclosure certainly keeps companies honest.
On Tuesday, QBE said in a statement to the Australian Securities Exchange it is in the final stages of negotiations of some bolt-on acquisitions that it expects to generate annualized gross written premiums of US$500 million. The company added that if completed, the acquisitions will be funded from internal resources.
QBE Insurance Group announced Tuesday that its long-serving chief executive officer Frank O'Halloran is stepping down.
Mr. O'Halloran will be replaced by the company's global head of underwriting operations John Neal on Aug. 17, to allow for a six-month handover.
QBE Insurance Group's recently acquired Balboa business has been caught up in a regulatory probe in New York. Our WSJ colleagues Liz Rappaport and Leslie Scism have more.
New York's Department of Financial Services has been probing banks and insurance companies for allegedly obtaining excessive profits on homeowners' policies that they force borrowers to pay for when their insurance lapses, said people familiar with the matter.
Superintendent Benjamin M. Lawsky in the fall of 2011 dispatched formal letters to insurers and subpoenas to insurance agents and insurance brokerages run by several large banks to gather information on their practices, the people said.

|Garrett's Attic
by Wendell Garrett
|Marquetry is decorative work in which amazing puzzle-like patterns are formed by intricately cut and shaped wood chips -- or veneers -- that are glued in place to ornament the surfaces of furniture and personal objects. Marquetry reached a high point in 15th-century Italy, where it was described as "painting in wood," and its popularity at Versailles in the 18th century was as a conspicuous symbol of luxury.
The art of marquetry flourished and reached levels of exceptional virtuosity in the Gilded Age in America following the Civil War and lasted, mostly as a hobby, for almost 90 years.
The Museum of American Folk Art in New York is currently exhibiting a Statue of Liberty Cabinet made by a German immigrant about 1886-1890 in the vicinity of St. Louis, Mo. This elaborate cabinet combines marquetry, carved and painted wood, and applied jigsaw cutouts so intricate that they might be called wood filigree.
Its eclectic style is consistent with American Renaissance furniture made between the 1870s and the end of the century, so the dressing table has been dated soon after the dedication of the Statue of Liberty in 1886. The furniture piece combines the American eagle and the Statue of Liberty with stars, mandolins, birds and musicians in a paean to patriotism, all under the watchful eyes of six cutout women wearing classical costumes.
Until the 19th century, woodworkers generally cut their veneers by hand. When steam-powered mills replaced most of the earlier lumber sawmills in America by 1830, it was then possible to cut 15 to 20 sheets of veneer to the inch of timber, making veneers cheap and popular. One method of making multiple copies of the same pattern required hardwood sticks of contrasting colors, glue and a fretsaw. This technique, called "piece by piece," produced quantities of small repeat patterns for borders.
The desired woods were cut into sticks of geometrical shapes by marqueters. The stack of shaped sticks was bundled and glued together under pressure, then sawed across the grain into veneers, each identical in the desired pattern.
Although repeated identical patterns appear regularly in 19th-century American marquetry, many patterns were executed one at a time. Using a graphite pencil and drawing to scale, the marqueter sketched on cardboard the overall design, indicating the size and shape of each component piece of wood. These cardboard templates guided the sawing of his veneers into the correct shapes and sizes.
The surface, or bed, of the core wood to which the cut and fitted veneers were to be glued was carefully leveled and "toothed over," or abraded, to get a clean surface. Some marqueters were satisfied with the natural sheen of the woods, whereas others turned to the oldest finishes known -- wax, oil and shellac -- to enhance them.
Although the restraint and precision of inlay and marquetry lent sophistication to Federal-style furniture after the Revolution, during the later decades of the Gilded Age, which began in 1865, the use of wood ornamentation was truly unleashed. As early as 1820, wealthy Americans began to design and decorate their homes in the romantic and eclectic interpretations of Victorian historical styles. The Greek revival was followed by the Gothic revival, which was based on sundry medieval designs.
Sustained by the new wealth generated by the Industrial Revolution, architects and designers found inspiration in a wide range of motifs -- from Egyptian to Persian, to Renaissance and Rococo. Carpenters and cabinetmakers quickly learned the vocabulary, and applied ornament was in use more than ever before in America. Marquetry veneer patterning was all but required on the most expensive furniture of the day.
"Male quilting" -- a phrase applied to the making of marquetry -- is an apt expression on the most basic level. Quilts and marquetry use bits and pieces of material, sometimes discarded from other undertakings and sometimes purchased or saved for a special project. Both folk forms fill flat surfaces with repeated patterns or use simplified pictures and symbols as designs. The making of quilts and marquetry is similar in that they both depend on a patient, additive progression from detail to detail, until plain cloth or naked wood is embellished with multiple designs that are also made of cloth or wood.
The checkerboard is one of the most common patterns in American furniture marquetry. While the design can be found in ancient Greek pavements and Pompeian mosaics, and in the decorative arts of other civilizations, it was present in the 19th century in the pure form of the game board.
A permutation of the simple checkerboard designs -- in which mind does triumph over matter -- is the "tumbling blocks" motif. The basic unit looks like a cube seen in perspective. It is composed of three rhomboids, which are squares with opposite sides shortened, of three colors or shades -- light, medium and dark. The rhomboids are locked into a hexagonal pattern. When the three shades are correctly related, the darkest appears to be in shadow and the lightest in direct light. Hence, the flatness of the surface seems to disappear and instead to display a cube in space. By presenting a number of diagonal rows of these three-dimensional cubes next to one another, the stunning illusions of uniformly tumbling blocks is created.
Many 19th-century marqueters fall into the artist-farmer-carpenter category, blending a rural vernacular style with sophisticated urban decorative motifs. Many farm communities had multi-skilled individuals possessed of excellent woodworking skills -- this is clearly evidenced in the furniture they made.
An esoteric category of furniture marquetry is that made by prisoners. Convicts became woodworkers as a result of the 18th-century prison reform movement. A large variety of shops and factories existed in prisons across America after the Civil War, many of them contracted by private manufacturers on the outside. These furniture-making shops, in addition to tailoring at Sing-Sing and blacksmithing, weaving, upholstering, printing and sign painting at Elmira, prospered well into the 20th century. Convicts had the time and energy to devote to the tedious rigor of marquetry, and their marquetry skills enriched almost every domestic item made of wood -- from beds, boxes, chairs and clocks to secretaries, tables and even violin cases.
The hours of labor necessary to ornament an object with marquetry were worth far more than anyone was willing to pay, and as a result, the gift of a piece of marquetry is priceless, representing a great investment of time and emotion.
Since the Second World War, marquetry-makers seem to have abandoned objects and turned to projects that revive the Renaissance interest in painting with wood -- that is, making pictures. Emphasis is placed on using the right colors and textures to create verisimilitude. On the other hand, today's professional cabinetmakers and furniture designers creatively use marquetry for inlays in original pieces of furniture that are often meant for wealthy clients and collectors.
WENDELL GARRETT is senior vice president of American Decorative Arts at Sotheby's.

Usually rumours of an affair between co-stars peak during the release of the film. But that's not the case with this duo. While there were whispers of closeness between Shahid Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha during the making of R... Rajkumar, it didn't create a stir because often link-ups between co-stars is just an added tool to promote the film. But the whispers continue post release too. Last week, she and Shaks sneaked off to party after an awards event, which had the Bollywood grapevine buzzing again!
Says an insider, "Sonakshi and Shahid clicked off right from day one of R...Rajkumar. The unit would watch amused as the bonding between the two grew. Both would often sit huddled in a corner cracking jokes and chilling together. As the film's promotions started, one couldn't but help notice the crackling chemistry between them. Post release, Sona played hostess at Shaks' success bash. But this week the rumours of their relationship became stronger when the duo were seen leaving an awards event together for a private party."
The source adds that the pair is not making it public because they want to be sure. However, Sonakshi says, "God no! I went to the function with my dad and left with him as well. Shahid and I are in touch, but we barely meet up because our work keeps us busy. I am very much single. I didn't go to any party after the event. Shahid is a good co-star and a friend."
Shahid remained unavailable for comment.

SCALE 11x Conference Details
The SCALE 11x conference is rapidly approaching. This year's event will be held February 22-24, 2013 at the Hilton Los Angeles Airport hotel.
According to the website, the 11th annual Southern California Linux Expo (SCALE) expects to host more than 100 exhibitors and feature more than 70 speakers. This year's keynote speakers include Kyle Rankin, who will deliver a talk called "Practical 3D Printing and the Open Source Community." In an interview with Gareth Greenaway, Rankin said that the talk would provide a quick primer on hobbyist 3D printing and include examples of what users can make. "Beyond that I want to dig into 3D printing's Open Source roots and draw some parallels between the Linux and 3D printing communities," Rankin said.
Matthew Garrett's keynote talk is called "The Secure Boot Journey." In an interview posted on the SCALE website, Garrett said his talk would cover the "more social and political aspects of the journey from having no idea of what we were going to do to shipping working solutions." Garrett called the ongoing process of developing solutions to the secure boot problem a "story of unexpected cooperation and unfortunate obstructionism."
Additionally, Joe Brockmeier will present "Taking the Open Cloud to 11 with CloudStack." When I spoke with Brockmeier briefly, he said, "What I hope to do with my talk is to take a little of the mystery out of IaaS cloud, show how easy it is to get started with CloudStack, and encourage users to take it for a spin if they need to get a handle on their computing environment." However, Brockmeier added, "I can't promise there won't be cat pictures."
This year's SCALE conference will also feature DevOps Day Los Angeles, the MySQL Community Conference, and more.

Federal police late on Tuesday raided the offices of the mayor, a government auditing agency, the district attorney and the legislature of Mato Grosso state, of which Cuiaba is the capital, in search of documents and other evidence.
The state's former finance minister and an ex-head of the state legislature were arrested and taken to jail in Brasilia. Federal police also raided the home of Mato Grosso Governor Silval Barbosa in search of documents and arrested him after they found a handgun with an expired licence. Barbosa paid bail and was released.
A senior official at the state prosecutors' office told Reuters that the probe involves hundreds of millions of dollars in missing government funds.

This is a dispute between two lenders over lien priority. A purchase money lender made a loan without knowing that the seller of that same property took a hard money loan from another lender. The hard money lender's documents were not timely recorded, and so it was not paid off at settlement. Instead, the purchase money lender disbursed to pay of another prior loan. The hard money lender recorded after settlement, and before the purchase money lender. All was fine until neither loan was paid. The lenders now dispute lien priority.
The Circuit Court for Baltimore City considered cross-motions for summary judgment, and granted judgment in favor of the purchase money lender, Bank of America. The hard money lender filed this appeal. Oral argument is scheduled for October, 2012.

Women's plays hit North County theaters
"Rumplestiltskin" will feature a cast of 18 young actors and one adult -- Marty Burnett, North Coast Rep's resident set designer, who will play the role of the king. Performances are at 7 p.m. March 2-5 and at 2 p.m. March 5 at the theater, 987-D Lomas Santa Fe Drive in Solana Beach. Tickets are $12 for adults and $9 for students. Call (858) 481-1055 for reservations.
In my review of San Diego Opera's "Lucia di Lammermoor" last week, I credited the wrong flutist for the lovely solos in the opera's mad scene. The soloist who soprano Angela Gilbert gratefully acknowledged in the pit was actually acting principal flutist Clay Ellerbroeck.

Pharrell has a long history of wearing many different brands, but these days it's either Lanvin or Billionaire Boys Club. The super producer has been spotted dressed in head-to-toe between these two brands, or a mix of both. But one item he never seems to take off is his Mark McNairy Daisy camo cap. Pharrell was seen entering the Jimmy Kimmel show mixing his favorite hat with a BBC T-shirt and shorts. He completed the look with the beef and broccoli colored collaborative Timberland boots from the Bee Line collection. The BBC website still has the Timberland boots in stock if you need something rugged to stomp the pavement with.

Alex Ariza predicts early Pacquiao KO victory
BAGUIO CITY—There's no doubt in conditioning expert Alex Ariza's mind that Manny Pacquiao is going to knock out Juan Manuel Marquez in the early part of their third showdown on November 12 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Having supervised the pound-for-pound king's strength and training exercises, Ariza has seen Pacquiao's development as a stronger, well-rounded fighter.
Ariza now believes Pacquiao will finally be able to finish off Marquez this time. And it will come before the first half of the 12-round fight for Pacquiao's World Boxing Organization welterweight crown is over.
"It (knockout) will be earlier than you would think," Ariza said during Pacquiao's Monday morning exercises at Teachers' Camp track oval here.
"[Pacquiao] is more complete now. He has much more speed, power and explosiveness."
Though Marquez has also evolved into a smarter and more cautious fighter, Ariza thinks it won't be enough to sway the balance in his favor.
"At the end of the day, that (smartness and cautiousness) will not win you the fight," he said.
Ariza wasn't in Pacquiao's corner when he eked out a split decision over Marquez in their rematch on March 3, 2008.
The Colombian came aboard Team Pacquiao before the Filipino superstar's demolition of David Diaz in 2009 and has been an integral part of the team since then.

Vintage Salesman's Sample, Diuril
No, she is not nude, see her belt?
Originally, she had a tape measure floating around her waist. There was also a male version of this, too. I'd say you could use it as a paper weight, but it's too light, even though it is filled with liquid.
You should have it as a conversations piece, something interesting to display on your shelves. This was pretty racy in 1958, even for an advertising gimmick! A very popular diuretic pill in the 50's.
She stands about 6 1/2" tall.

After losing fumbles on consecutive drives in the opening quarter, Dunbar caught an 83-yard touchdown pass early in the second quarter that gave North Texas (1-3) its first score. Indiana (1-3) trailed 24-0 before storming back in the fourth quarter. Backup Dusty Kiel threw two touchdown passes in the final 6 minutes.

From the article: Before you Before You Eat Out
Just as at home, eating certain foods in restaurants can trigger heartburn. Are you able to eat out without heartburn? Perhaps you have learned what to ask for, or what to avoid. You can your tips here, or get tips and ideas from others.
- Mine are: Onions (raw), high amounts of fiber (ex: Fiber One bars on an empty stomach), tight pants, sitting in the same position for an extended period after I eat (i.e. having dinner and then sitting on an airplane for two hours is a killer).
- —parfour7th
- Firstly I eat before 8 AM as best I could. If I eat after 8, I am sure to get symptoms during the day. Onions cause slight burn. Tomatoes definitely I avoid. Orange Juice is out as well. I've found that if I drink pomegranate juice no matter what I eat, I don't get any heartburn at all. Also don't wear tight pants.
- —Guest Rennie
- I have cut out meat from my diet for two weeks and have been heartburn free except for when I drank alcohol and coffee - but even then it has been greatly reduced !

12th 'Earth Day Jam'
Eighties rocker Lou Bonnevie has successfully harnessed the power of music to raise environmental awareness and appreciation through "Earth Day Jam."
The annual advocacy concert brings together on stage some of the best local acts, as well as experts and environmentalists who speak about the problems that plague Mother Earth. The event is held in conjunction with the worldwide observance of Earth Day every April.
"Music is one of the few things that bind people. Put instructive and inspiring messages behind it and you have a powerful medium that can spark change," Bonnevie told the Inquirer in a recent press con.
Bonnevie stressed that learning about our environment doesn't have to be tedious. She recalled being invited to perform in an Earth Day celebration at the Quezon Memorial Circle in 1999: "I found the event enlightening but I thought it could use a little more pop. There wasn't much of a crowd participating. The people present were really just the environmentalists … the goal is for everyone to join."
That motivated Bonnevie to organize free shows that would promote the advocacy. She consulted the late environmentalist Odette Alcantara and, in 2000, mounted the first "Earth Day Jam" which she called "Earth Born" in Subic. The gig featured Barbie's Cradle, Put3ska and the Manila Youth Symphony Orchestra.
Open heart
"I've realized that you don't have to be an expert to help," she said. "You only need an open heart."
In 2007, Bonnevie received the Fr. Satur Neri award for Environmental Heroism from the National Commission for Culture and the Arts, Unesco, the Climate Institute and Department of Education.
In its 12th edition, "Earth Day Jam" will be held on Saturday, 6 p.m. at the 9th Avenue, Bonifacio Global City in Taguig. The concert is expected to last till the wee hours. Music lovers can expect a mix of genres ranging from reggae and samba, to alternative rock and acoustic.
Joining Bonnevie are Noel Cabangon, Radioactive Sago Project, True Faith, Nina, Juris, Sino Sikat, Bloomfields, Imago, Mayonnaise, Kjwan, Tanya Markova, Peace Pipe, Nyko Maca and Gafieira, El_Martinos, and many others.
Between sets, representatives from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, and other government agencies will give short talks and play videos about their latest projects, and other earth-related topics.
NGOs like Greenpeace will set up booths where people can sign up for various campaigns, and purchase organic food and products.

Paramount Studios 24 – 27 April 2014
Stage 31 Booth # 05
SOLO SHOW: McDERMOTT & McGOUGH
David McDermott and Peter McGough - born respectively in 1952 in Hollywood (California) and in 1958 in Syracuse (New York) - met at the beginning of 1980s in the New York artistic scene and were known since then for the way they merge art and everyday life.
The works presented at Paris Photo L.A. show their total refusal of the present history: this obsession of the past can be seen in the subjects and the styles they choose to resuscitate and in the precise or fictitious dates they give to their works. This very original production borrows several techniques of the photography of the last century as Palladium, gum print or cyanotype.
If their photographic approach leans on the appropriation of images and objects of the end of the 19th century, they also behave in the everyday life as real gentlemen assuming the pose of erudite and impertinent dandies. They so chose to dive completely in the period which suits them best: the Victorian one, from the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century.
By its personal dimension, the works of McDermott and McGough becomes an artistic contemporary voluntarily polemical and provocative performance, dealing with political and sociological questions.
Among the major exhibitions redrawing their works we find those of Frankfurter Kunstverein in 1986 and the Whitney Biennale of New York in 1987, 1991 and 1995. In 1997, a retrospective at the Provincial Museum voor Moderne Kunst in Oostende, Belgium is dedicated to them and, in 2009, an exhibition at the Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin and at La Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris.
Pièce Unique is happy to announce on this occasion that McDermott and McGough (previously represented in France by the Gallery Jérôme de Noirmont) joined the artists of the gallery. A personal exhibition will be dedicated to them in Paris in the coming fall.

An intelligence achievement
Only two intelligence services - those of Israel and the United States - stubbornly insisted for years that Iran was leading the world up the garden path. They discovered secret Iranian moves years ago.
Attacking the intelligence community has become almost a national sport in England and the United States - in the U.S., it has even become part of the election campaign. The barbs are aimed first of all at the war in Iraq and the period that led up to the war. With this frame of mind, it's not surprising that an important intelligence achievement - exposure of Iran's nuclear program - is being overlooked.
Intelligence failures usually become known to the public quite quickly, whereas intelligence successes for the most part remain secret for a long time, in order to conceal the methods by which they were achieved. The case of the Iranian nuclear project is unusual in this regard: For years the Iranians lied brazenly, totally denying that they were doing anything in violation of the conventions to which they were signatories.
Only two intelligence services - those of Israel and the United States - stubbornly insisted for years that Iran was leading the world up the garden path. They discovered secret Iranian moves years ago. The Americans sometimes displayed faint resolve when some of their experts argued that it was best to ignore the information and that the battle was lost. A positive exception was John Bolton, undersecretary for arms control and international security in the State Department. In Israel those who were derided as "panic-mongers," former deputy defense minister Ephraim Sneh and former deputy director of Military Intelligence Amos Gilad, turned out to be right.
And then a rare event occurred. The Iranians suddenly decided to admit that they had been lying for years. They admitted that they had engaged in enriching uranium, had secretly acquired nuclear materials and had built secret facilities. The scope of their forbidden activity in the course of 18 years was larger than even the American and Israeli security services maintained or knew. For example, the Iranians enriched uranium in part with the use of lasers and not by centrifuges. The Iranians themselves announced this intelligence achievement in their admission to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
Against the background of this success, it needs to be said that the compliments being meted out to the IAEA are exaggerated. Had it not been for the information the agency received from outside sources, and the firm American demands, it's doubtful whether its staff would have discovered anything on its own or whether they would have used tough language in their reports. This episode raises anew the question of the supervisory capability of the IAEA and its ability to prevent substantive violations of supervision agreements.
What led the Iranians to make their surprise announcement? There is no doubt about the contribution of the Europeans - Britain, France and Germany - to the debate. The turning point came when they told the Iranians that if they didn't reveal all, the Europeans would have to adopt the American position of seeking sanctions against Iran at the Security Council. More than 80 percent of Iran's trade is with Europe. The conclusion: Pressure is effective.
In the internal debate within Iran, only a small part of which has become public knowledge, the reformists accused the conservatives of responsibility for the nuclear entanglement. One of the arguments was that the government's possession of nuclear weapons would not guarantee the preservation of the regime, because these were two separate issues. Although the religious leader, Ali Khamenei, refrained from intervening in the debate, President Khatami demanded a compromise agreement that would ensure the flow of new technology to Iran. Other Iranians say that no matter what kind of regime is in power in their country, Iran will in the future need handsome allurements in order not to develop nuclear arms.
This marks the end of one chapter, or seems to, because it's still not clear what role Pakistan is playing in Iran's nuclear project. For Israel, the threat remains, though it has gained a time-out - and in the Middle East that's a lot.
