Re: Aion now F2P
vardant, you can never have a true melee/caster class.. knight types are allways stronger in melee and use magic to back them up, either with DD spells or to add damaged to their melee attacks. Clerics are a healing class whos stats need to focus entirly on magic, and not even destructive magic at that. With their main limited selection of DD being range they should never be in melee distance. You can weave melee hits in when you are in melee range to maximize dps but it doesn't excuse the fact that it was a stupid decision have clerics need to.
Stigma slots are very much like WoW's glyph system... in that they don't differentiate squat. You are pretty much required to have the specific stigmas needed for when you are pve, pvp, and healing. Aion does a bit more then WoW in that it can give a whole new ability, but it does not change the fact that there are pre-determined builds for If I am this class and I am PvE, I use these specifc stigmas.
And no, when you have 10(11) classes with 3 talent builds requiring you to balance for 30(33) trees, then I will easily accept that not all of them will be fair, and some will be downright ignored. When you have 8 classes... no trees so you are only balancing 8 builds (Stigmatas are not balanced around), there is absolutely no excuse why you can't 1vs1 balance them. The biggest reason they couldn't balance them is they went with the stupid idea that only one class can be the supreme tank and only one class can be the supreme healer. These extremes make it impossible to adjust the power triangle of a class (damage/heal/stamina) to be equal footing with others.

Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Arun Jaitley on Wednesday said that attacks on the basis of corruption and honesty are not personal, but added that in politics, personal attacks should be avoided.
"I completely agree that there should not be any personal attacks. When issues of corruption and honesty are raised in the public domain, then, it is not a personal attack, but it is a political issue. Issues of probity in politics are public issues," said Jaitley.
Jaitley was responding to the statement of Congress President Sonia Gandhi's daughter Priyanka Gandhi, who said her husband Robert Vadra was being attacked by the BJP to divert the attention of people from development issues to "meaningless talk", and that the "truth" about her husband will prevail.
Jaitley further said, "It was the Congress supporters who led a personal attack on Modi by making an issue out of his marriage or, giving security to a woman in Ahmedabad. I am happy that in the Congress Party, there is somebody who is saying that we should refrain from personal attacks."
He also appealed to the Congress leaders to consider Priyanka's statement about personal attacks before making any jibes on Modi.

Be it sharing a win, consoling each other during a loss or, if you're part of the Great British squad, enjoying a laughter-filled evening game of charades, there's nothing quite like the team environment that Fed Cup by BNP Paribas brings.
Laura Robson, for one, says she can't wait to link up with her compatriots for another dose of the competition when Great Britain faces Argentina on 20-21 April in the World Group II play-offs.
"I like it," said the 19-year-old lefthander of Fed Cup. "It makes a nice change and it's good having a big group of people around you all the time.
"Team events are always fun anyway but in the evenings we do our little team bonding session of charades and things like that to make our evenings a little bit more fun."
The world No. 39 has won just two matches on tour since the Australian Open, against Italian Camila Giorgi in Miami and Spaniard Estrella Cabeza Candela in Charleston, but thrived in a team environment on her last Fed Cup outing in February.
Robson played a key role in a successful Europe/Africa Zone Group I campaign for Judy Murray's team in Eliat, Israel, winning all three of her singles matches to help Great Britain earn an away tie against the World Group II first round losers.
"It's not totally ideal to be going to Argentina in the middle of the European clay court season," admitted Robson. "But it's great that we'll be on clay so we can go straight back into tournaments after it."
The British No. 1 has been named alongside world No. 154 Johanna Konta, No. 184 Anne Keothavong and No. 209 Elena Baltacha for the tie, with the latter returning to the squad after foot surgery in place of No. 41 Heather Watson, who is recovering from Glandular Fever.
Argentina captain Bettina Fulco, meanwhile, names an unchanged team from the side that squandered a 2-0 advantage against Sweden to lose 3-2 in the World Group II first round, with world No. 145 Paula Ormaechea, No. 203 Maria Irigoyen, No. 239 Florencia Molinero and No. 328 Mailen Auroux bidding to keep the team in the second tier.
Ormaechea tore a ligament in February's tie, an injury that ultimately sparked the Swedes dramatic turnaround, and Robson knows the Argentine No. 1, and her team, will be hungry to avoid a second straight loss on the clay of Parque Roca.
"I will have to play really well in my singles matches and also in doubles if it comes down to that but I'm really excited," said Robson. "I think the crowd is going to be pretty tough out there but it's all part of the Fed Cup experience."

Re: Help Defend Video Games In The Supreme Court!
This is a good law, I dont know where some of you people live but here in Texas I was never, ever, ever able to buy a M rated game when I was under 18, maybe in your state the stores were not enforcing it, but they were down here.
I saw a girl get turned down from buying CS:Source at Walmart about a year ago and I was lmao because that used to happen to me all the time when I was a kid. If kids want the game they should go through the parents. I dont even consider 18 yr olds to be adults but whatever thats not the issue here.
The question is do you want 10 year olds to be able to buy games of this nature.

Re: Help Defend Video Games In The Supreme Court!
1) By supporting this, that's not we are saying at all. The ESRB ratings are already there, this would just enforce them legally.
2) Console games rated M are not for children. You are part of the problem if you think this way.
3) This law won't stop companies from making violent video games at all, I don't even know where you get that. This will change nothing as far as how and what content goes into a game. All this does is basically take the ESRB rating, which is already there, and make it into a law.
Re: Help Defend Video Games In The Supreme Court!
I support it. Without proper ratings and a way to enforce them. You can end up where game are banned for all ages, like here in AU.

Re: Help Defend Video Games In The Supreme Court!
Now how many of those 17 million copies do you think where purchased by or for people under the age of 17? I would venture to say well over half if not three quarters. The game rides the edge. Rockstar knows this and held back. If it was truly a game for adults I think it would have been pushed even further. Full nudity in the clubs, really nasty splatters of people and full on hot coffee games. They went very far but if it was truly a game for adults only then why no nip, why the outrage by the media. So it is not really an adult game. Don't you consider a 17yo a child still, 16 defintly a child, 15, no doubt too young?
Do you understand what I'm saying? Of course it's not meant for kids legally but rockstar knows who their audience is. If they had really pushed it then it wouldn't have been rated M it would have been rated AO, Adults Only. (Titles rated Adults Only have content that should only be played by persons 18 years and older. Titles in this category may include prolonged scenes of intense violence and/or graphic sexual content and nudity.) GTASA received AO from M after hot coffee was found. They probably would have lost a lot of sales with an AO rating on GTA IV. So that is why I say the game was marketed to kids, made for kids, held back by kids and is in the majority played by children. I'm really just bitching that games companies don't have the balls to make an actual AO game.
In the end, yes, this is a good thing and might make developers feel comfortable enough to produce AO games knowing they will not land in the hands of children and stop holding back. Parents will have nothing to say since it's clearly marked for adults only and it will be the states or governments responsibilty NOT THE PARENTS to stop the sale and I'm not saying that how it should be but what this law will do. Or maybe the threat of fines, fees and jail time will scare the crap out of retailers and they'll refuse to stock AO games and since it is not just enforcing ESRB it is banning all minors from buying all games that could be considered "violent", we may just see a very quick decline of "violent" games. Games rated Teen being called "violent" and banned, some mortal kombat games are rated teen. Game companies will respond to the lack of sales and it won't be by turning up the violence... or maybe they will... only time will tell.
P.S. How are my paragraphs?
P.P.S. I was looking in to the demographics simply for video games and found this. "While the market for teen and young adult men is still a strong market, it is the other demographics which are posting significant growth. In 2008, the average American gamer has been playing for 12 years, and is now, on average, 35 years of age." So I'm really confused why we don't see a lot more AO games targeted only for 18+ really I want to see targeted for 25-35 range.

Re: Help Defend Video Games In The Supreme Court!
If you had asked me 4 years ago what I would have thought of this, I would have avidly opposed this. However, now that I've gone through the college system and noticed how much our society is driven by the antics seen in video games and on the internet, I FULLY support this law.
It could be considered supression, but the fact of the matter is that video games have gotten too violent and language has gotten so vivid that it is in full-adult territory. It does add to the mood, but it also isn't necessary in games like BC2 and MW2. The ratings nowadays are too relaxed compared to how they were just 15 years ago.
Anyway, let them become legal adults, and then let them make the decisions for themselves. At 18, people aren't perfect, but most are far more level headed then a 15 or 16 year old.

I think video sums up the issue quite well.
Should put a language warning disclaimer here, so watch it with headphones on or out of the ears of children.
Re: Help Defend Video Games In The Supreme Court!
To anyone thinking this law will change anything, it won't. All the kid has to do is ask a friend, parent, brother, or torrent site to get the game.

Re: Help Defend Video Games In The Supreme Court!
Well AO games are already basically unofficially banned in retailer's eyes so that is the main reason you never see them in stores. It's the only reason you always see game devs targeting an M rating instead of going all out. It's not because they are aiming for kids or because they don't want to make an AO game, it's because no store will carry AO games and that will be a huge hit on their profits especially if you consider it takes several million dollars of investment capital to make a game.
While it is true that a lot of those M rated games were bought for under 17 year olds, a good portion of those were bought by parents who didn't know what Rated M means or didn't care. I am sure there were some retailers out there that sold to under 17, but I honestly don't know how many could have when even before the last GTA shipped I was being carded by stores like Best Buy and I know I look well over 25.
This law does NOT in any way shift the parenting role from parent to government, if it did it would read "no child can buy or play M rated games", and would play out more like alcohol laws today where you get charged for child endangerment if you are found giving alcohol to a minor. What it does say is that you cannot legally sell a child a game who is younger than the rating of the game without the parent's consent. That does not take away parental responsibility it actually encourages it as it would force retailers to say to the buyer you're too young, bring in your parents if you want to buy it. With this law it would actually hold the retailer responsible for selling a M rated game to a minor and open them up to severe fines and/or other penalties.

Re: Help Defend Video Games In The Supreme Court!
I support it as well. It needs to be a national law. If the kids want it, it's up to the parents to go buy it and THEY should be held responsible.
some kids are mature enough to deal with that stuff and some aren't. It's should be left up to the parent to make the decision. Giving any kid off the street that choice shouldn't have ever been allowed.
The girl I work with bought her kids god of war 1/2 for PS3 recently and she pretty much walked into the room during one of the sex mini games and immediately returned it. She learned her lesson the hard way. We had a discussion about it with a couple other guys/gals that game at the office and we're all pretty much unanimously in support of any law/bill that makes it harder for kids to walk into a store and get these type games.
my parents always had to pre-screen the rated R movies before me and my brothers could watch them when we were kids. We got some, we didn't get others but they were being responsible by not just handing us basic instinct directors cut when I was 11, rather forcing me to sneak it into my room late one night to sample the forbidden fruit...

Ultra-Wealthy OK with California's High Tax?
by Terri Eyden on printer friendly
By Teresa Ambord, Correspondent
Are the superrich leaving California? The Huffington Post (HuffPo) says no. Sure, there's a lot of talk, says HuffPo, but most of it is anecdotal, or rich people crying wolf, or as one guy said, "those rich people are just very slow packers."* Despite the big talk, the ultra-wealthy don't seem to be going anywhere. But that doesn't mean the state isn't losing income and jobs.
HuffPo cites a report done by Stanford University that said filthy-rich residents (as opposed to the merely rich) generally stick around. After all, California has sunshine, beaches, 735 miles of coastline, the glitz of Hollywood, the culture of San Francisco, plus the technology of the Silicon Valley. So if paying more than 60 percent (when you add federal, state, Social Security, and Medicare) of your income in tax still leaves you filthy rich, you might choose to call California home.
HuffPo also noted a report from UBS (Union Bank of Switzerland) that says California was the "largest absolute gainer" of the superrich between 2012 and 2013. The report, called Wealth-X, says "the highest-income Californians were those less likely to leave the state after the millionaire tax was passed."
However . . .
California is still heavily populated, and while the ultra-wealthy may stay, is their money enough to keep the Golden State afloat? There's plenty of evidence that jobs and a large chunk of personal income are leaving California for more tax-friendly states.
US Expats Throw in the Citizenship Towel
Wealthy US citizens have been living abroad forever, and for many reasons. Climate, culture, anonymity, and in some cases, a friendlier tax policy.
One tax attorney in Connecticut is keeping a close eye on how many US citizens are forfeiting their rights of citizenship. By the end of the third quarter of this year, 2,369 individuals have called it quits. This may not sound like much, but it's a 33 percent jump from the next highest record set in 2011, when 1,781 expatriates gave up citizenship.
Among those names you might recognize are Tina Turner, Denise Rich, and Eduardo Saverin.
Why the outflow of citizens? Those who forfeit their citizenship don't have to give a reason when they renounce, so short of hearing it directly from them, it's not possible to be sure. According to at least one source, it doesn't seem to be an immigration issue. Freddi Weintraub, an immigration specialist at Fragomen Worldwide law firm, told the Wall Street Journal, "Nothing has changed in immigration law that would make people want to renounce. Current or anticipated changes in tax law and enforcement are driving this increase."
Also, the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act will take effect in 2014, greatly increasing the paperwork burden on US taxpayers living abroad . . . another possible reason why expats are saying enough is enough and throwing in the citizenship towel.
Pro golfer Phil Mickelson may not qualify as superrich – he only earns tens of millions every year, mostly in endorsement income. When California raised its personal income tax to the highest level of any state, Mickelson made his annoyance clear. He talked about moving to Florida, where the golf courses are at least as nice and there's no personal state income tax. But family ties have caused him to stay put . . . so far. Fellow pro golfer Tiger Woods also protested California's high tax back in the 90s, and he did move his wealth across the country to Florida.
Then there's the data from the IRS. The tax agency issued a report showing from 1995–2010, California lost a bundle to no-tax states. Here's just a snippet from that report:
During the years studied, nearly half a billion in personal income was lost to King County in no-tax Washington State. The income siphoned from California came from three counties:
- $32 million from Sacramento County
- $98 million from Orange County
- $313 million from Los Angeles County
Keep in mind, this isn't the total income loss, it's merely the income drawn from three of California's fifty-eight counties that went to one Washington county.
Still not convinced?
Sure, people flock to California because it offers a lot of glamour. But a report earlier this year from the Tax Foundation shows California (and other states) lost a sizable chunk of personal income – to the tune of $29.4 billion – to other states as people moved elsewhere, even before the recent tax hike. This report only suggests that tax might be one cause of the migration.
Other sources show the Golden State suffers a net loss of tens of thousands of taxpaying citizens every year to no-state-tax Texas. And while some businesses based in California haven't pulled up stakes and moved their entire operations out of state, they are sending jobs outside California's high-tax, business-unfriendly borders. For example, Chevron, in San Ramon, California, is moving 800 jobs to Houston. Three major companies in the California Bay Area – Facebook, eBay, and VISA – are also expanding to Texas.
In a survey earlier this year by the California Business Roundtable forum, 69 percent of companies admitted it's harder to do business in California than anywhere else, which may partially explain the state's high unemployment rate, hovering around 10 percent.
Dan Morris, an accountant from San Jose, California, serves mostly wealthy clients. He told reporters since the passage of Proposition 30, there's a greater "catalyst burning under people" to leave. "There will be wealth that leaves California. Not everyone will move, but those who can, will."
Then there's Chris Plastiras, the owner of Lakeshore Realty in Lake Tahoe and Incline Village. Plastiras said since the November 2012 election, he's seen many of his wealthy clients flock over the border into no-tax Nevada. "They're buying fast and furious, absolutely. I've never seen anything quite like this. Prop 30 really got a lot of people upset." More than 50 percent of his closings since the election have been people leaving California.
So although HuffPo made a valid point – that is, the superrich seem to be okay with paying the highest state tax in the nation in exchange for life in California – job creators and the merely wealthy are not so okay with it, and they're taking their money and their jobs elsewhere. Good thing the ultra-rich are staying, because if this trend keeps up, it will be just them and the super-poor.

Riley takes exception to way some have ripped Heat
MIAMI Pat Riley and LeBron James already have one thing in common. They're keeping track of what's been said about how this Miami Heat team got put together this summer.
It seems to be fueling both of them.
Speaking at length with reporters for the first time since the Heat acquired James and Chris Bosh to play alongside Dwyane Wade this summer, Riley revealed he thought some critics of Miami's roster moves should "get a life." He is also certain it'll be a motivating point for his team throughout the season.
"I know one thing," Riley said. "We will show up and we will play games. And our team will be ready. And I think that's the way we can answer all the critics."
Riley specifically cited Orlando Magic general manager Otis Smith and former NBA star turned analyst Charles Barkley as examples of people who took what the Heat president thought were unwarranted shots at the way the Heat went about business this summer. He also mentioned Magic coach Stan Van Gundy - Riley's former protege in Miami - as well.
On the day after Miami signed James to a six-year contract that lured him away from the Cleveland Cavaliers, Smith said, "I thought he was, I guess, more of a competitor."
Riley responded to that Friday, saying Smith made, "an absolutely stupid remark. He never made any kind of comment like that when he signed Rashard Lewis and he brought him down from Seattle with an $128 million contract."
Barkley went a step farther, saying James "is never going to be the guy" in Miami because he'll have to share the spotlight with Wade and Bosh. James responded a month later on Twitter, saying "Don't think for one (minute) that I haven't been taking mental notes of everyone taking shots at me this summer. And I mean everyone!"
Riley said he thought Barkley allowed his remarks to become personal attacks.
There have been countless other critics of James, Wade, Bosh and the rest of the Heat in recent weeks, and Riley said he's having trouble understanding the need for venom.
"I take a little bit of umbrage to some of the things that came from people in our game that all of a sudden have become the moral conscience or moral authority on the decisions that every team or some individual might make concerning his life or his career," Riley said.
Riley reiterated that he does not plan to hover over Heat coach Erik Spoelstra. Yes, Spoelstra and Riley will continue talking and strategizing, but even with the talent he assembled this summer, Riley doesn't envision becoming a teacher again on the practice floor.
For his part, Wade isn't surprised by that.
"I think he's going to sit back and watch," Wade said. "I think he has the coaches he believes in. I think he has the team he believes can do it. I think he's going to sit back and watch it unfold."
There are more pressing matters for the Heat to deal with before the Sept. 28 start of training camp, namely figuring out how all the new pieces like James, Bosh, Mike Miller, Zydrunas Ilgauskas and Juwan Howard all fit into place.

Pipe Welding Schools and Colleges: How to Choose
Pipe welders fuse metal into fixtures on automobiles, appliances, construction fixtures and ships. Once welded, these fixtures are permanently connected. To perform their job duties, welders must know how to read blueprints, make necessary calculations, select the correct equipment and perform quality assurance checks. Certificate and associate's degree programs are available in the field.
How to Select a Pipe Welding School
Students can receive pipe welding instruction through certificate and associate's degree programs. These are commonly found at community colleges and technical institutes through the schools' welding, career and manufacturing departments.
Summary of Important Considerations
- Degree options
- School accreditation
- Admission requirements
- Practical opportunities
Degree Options
Prospective pipe welders should determine whether to earn a certificate or associate's degree. Certificate programs consist of approximately 30 credit hours and can be completed in a year or less. Associate's degree programs include general education and field-specific coursework and require at least 60 credit hours.
School Accreditation
Prospective students should also determine whether a program has been accredited by the American Welding Society (AWS). Students also might consider the amount of certification exam prep a program provides.
Admission Requirements
Some programs come with specific prerequisites that students must fulfill prior to enrollment. Many associate's degree programs require applicants to have completed a certificate program in basic welding or have at least two years of experience.
Practical Opportunities
Prior to choosing a school, individuals should consider the amount of hands-on experience a program provides. Some programs consist of as much as 90% laboratory time. Spending more time practicing new skills may better prepare graduates for employment. Prospective students should likewise consider choosing a program with more advanced and current technologies that may be used by students for career preparation.
Program Overview
Certificate Programs
Pipe welding certificate programs typically provide students with general pipe welding instruction, though some programs may focus on maritime welding. Instruction covers welding materials in all positions using a variety of equipment. Graduates are eligible for the AWS certification exam and, upon successful passage of the exam, entry-level employment as a welder. Students in general welding programs are taught:
- Welding fabrication
- Metallurgy
- Industrial graphics
- Math
Associate's Degree Programs
An associate's degree program in pipe welding covers safety and inspection techniques. Graduates are eligible to sit for the AWS certification exam. Courses teach students about:
- Pipe fitting
- Industrial graphics
- Fabrication design
- Technical physics
- Installing pipe systems

Nordstrom Announces 2011 Asian Pacific American Heritage Month Initiative
SEATTLE, May 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Nordstrom, Inc. announced today that it is recognizing Asian Pacific American Heritage Month in 2011 by teaming up with Hep B Free and OCA to help raise awareness of the importance of getting tested for hepatitis B–the leading cause of liver cancer and one of the greatest health disparities facing the Asian Pacific American community.
According to Hep B Free, one in 10 Asian Americans is chronically infected with hepatitis B versus one in 1,000 of the general population. Early detection is important, and the hepatitis B vaccine can prevent hepatitis B infection and the consequences of infection. As part of its 2011 "Living Well" initiative, Nordstrom is giving people an easy way to learn more about hepatitis B testing and prevention.
"Through our Heritage Month efforts, we are proud that we're able to recognize and celebrate the diverse backgrounds of our employees and our customers," said Amelia Ransom Letcher, vice president of Diversity Affairs at Nordstrom. "We're also extremely grateful to be partnering with Hep B Free and OCA, two fantastic organizations that are doing great things to educate people–specifically those within the Asian Pacific American community–about hepatitis B and find solutions for treatment and prevention."
A new website, www.nordstrom.com/apahm, provides an opportunity for visitors to take action and learn more about hepatitis B. For every person who completes a hepatitis B awareness quiz in May via www.nordstrom.com/apahm, Nordstrom will make a $35 donation to Hep B Free, up to $75,000. Nordstrom is also spreading the word about the initiative via signs in its stores, its catalogs and by sharing information with its Twitter and Facebook followers.
"OCA is pleased to partner with Nordstrom and Hep B Free to raise awareness around hepatitis B," said OCA National President Ken Lee. "This is a heightened problem in the Asian Pacific American community and it is important that we work together to increase visibility and educate everyone about this disease."
"This is the first time we've partnered with a national retailer on a nationally coordinated awareness effort with the Asian American community to help end Hep B disease and liver cancer. We applaud Nordstrom's support and partnership for this pressing health issue," said Ted Fang, Director, AsianWeek Foundation and co-founder of San Francisco Hep B Free. "We encourage everyone to take the short quiz to learn more about hepatitis B and join our efforts to make America Hep B Free."
For more information about Nordstrom's recognition of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month and other heritage months throughout 2011, please visit www.nordstrom.com/livingwell.
About Hepatitis B
Chronic hepatitis B infection is the greatest cause of liver cancer in the world, and one of the greatest health disparities between the Asian and non-Asian communities. Eighty percent of liver cancer worldwide is caused by chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. One in 10 Asians are chronically infected with HBV and are four times more likely to die from liver cancer compared with the general population. Early detection of HBV will benefit the infected individual as well as prevent the infection from spreading. HBV is not only vaccine preventable, but it also has effective treatments that prevent liver cancer.
About Hep B Free
Hep B Free is a multi-faceted and comprehensive campaign to make America free of hepatitis B disease and liver cancer through a nationwide collaboration, and network of localized efforts. The model was begun in San Francisco and is being replicated in Las Vegas, Washington DC, Philadelphia, San Mateo County, Alameda County, Santa Clara County, Los Angeles County, Orange County, and other municipalities. AsianWeek Foundation is a co-founder of Hep B Free with Asian Liver Center at Stanford University and San Francisco Department of Public Health. sfhepbfree.org.
About OCA
Founded in 1973, OCA is a national non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the social, political, and economic well-being of Asian Pacific Americans in the United States. Headquartered in Washington, DC, OCA is engaged in organizing its 80 chapters and affiliates across the nation to develop both leadership and community involvement. The OCA National Center also serves as an effective vantage point for monitoring legislation and policy issues. OCA is online at ocanational.org.

The investment manager and principal of WG Trading Company, LP and WG Trading Investors, Stephen Walsh, pleaded guilty to two counts of securities fraud. In entering the plea Mr. Walsh agreed to forfeit $50,743,779 which represents the amount he misappropriated and by which he personally profited from the fraud. U.S. v. Greenwood, Case No. 1:09-mj-00502 (S.D.N.Y. Filed July 24, 2009).
Over a three year period beginning in early 2009 Mr. Walsh and his confederate, Paul Greenwood, are alleged to have raised about $7.6 billion from investors. Those investors were told that their funds would be placed in a "veritable money-making machine." That machine was supposedly an investment program called "equity index arbitrage." The program was represented to be a conservative trading strategy which had out performed the S&P 500 index for over 10 years.
The pitch was so successful that several institutional investors, pension plans and charitable and university investment funds put billions of dollars in the program. Those investors either became limited partners in WG Trading Company or received promissory notes issued by WG Trading Investors. Messrs. Walsh and Greenwood told investors the notes would pay interest at a rate equal to the investment returns earned by a limited partner of WG Trading Company.
The investment program was not nearly as successful as the investment pitch. In fact Messrs. Walsh and Greenwood misappropriated hundreds of millions of dollars of investor funds, diverting the money to their personal use. Two men executed promissory notes in favor of WG Trading Investors totaling $554 million. Of that amount $261 million were payable by Mr. Walsh to WG Trading Investors. The notes materially misstated the financial condition of WG Trading Company and misled investors. False accounting statements were also furnished to investors, documenting their fictitious returns.
Previously, Deborah Duffy, the CCO of WG Trading Company pleaded guilty to conspiracy, securities fraud and money laundering. Mr. Greenwood pleaded guilty to conspiracy, securities fraud, commodities fraud, wire fraud and money laundering charges. Dates for sentencing have not been set.
The SEC and CFTC have pending, parallel enforcement actions. SEC v. WG Trading, Investors, L.P., Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-01750 (S.D.N.Y. Filed Feb. 25, 2009); CFTC v. Walsh, Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-01749 (S.D.N.Y. Filed Feb. 25, 2009).

Swizz Beatz ft. Young Jeezy, Eve & Elephant Man - Money In The Bank (Remix)
Artist: Swizz Beatz
Featuring: Jeezy, Eve, Elephant Man
Producer: Young World Music
Album: One Man Band Man
Avg Rating: 4.6 ( 11 votes )
Swizz Beatz isn't the only male whose pet peeve is women with no Money In The Bank; for the remix, three friends offer their opinions. Young Jeezy stays on point, rapping about how the money-hungry women are after him, Eve turns the tables and raps about her own bankroll and the Energy God, Elephant Man (who is arguably the highlight of this track) focuses on the money and doesn't say too much about the females. Hopefully, the remix will help Swizzy improve the disappointing sales of One Man Band Man.

NASA Accepting Applications For Bed-Rest Study
September 23, 2013
NASA is preparing for a bed-rest study designed monitor the changes to the human body from the conditions astronauts experience in extended space travel…and you could earn $18,000. The subjects will lie in bed for 70 days at a 6-degree angle to simulate conditions in microgravity where astronauts have to exert little force to complete a task—resulting in muscle atrophy. Scientists will monitor the participants' vitals and ability to fight off infections.

Mr Cowell is back on the X Factor panel again this year, which means there's nowhere to hide for our new bunch of singing hopefuls! He's in charge of the Overs and lasted until week six with all four acts. Jay was his act to leave but Simon's confident he'll have at least one act in the final.
Well, Stevi has come back week after week, even when he's thought he was going home. So what better song for Stevi to sing than Elton John's classic I'm Still Standing?
Were there too many distractions? Could you hear his voice? Will Cheryl and Mel B regretting saving Stevi last week?
Download Stevi's version of I'm Still Standing
We forgot what an absolute choon I'm Every Woman was, but did the Judges think that Fleur did it justice? Did Mel B hear Fleur's vocals OK? Will Cheryl be giving her props?
And hands up if you spotted Fleur's sister and mum in the performance?
Download Fleur's version of I'm Every Woman
Well we weren't expecting this song from Ben Haenow, but does it work? So far Ben hasn't had much criticism - will the Judges always love him or will tonight be a case of, Houston, we have a problem?
Download Ben's version of I Will Always Love You
If you thought Fleur's performance of Bang Bang at Judges' Houses was good, wait til you watch this bad boy!
We never realised this song could sound so good in a Big Band style, so will the Judges think Fleur has done the song a Big Band justice or will they think she should have left it alone and done something else?
Download Fleur's version of Bang Bang
Stevi Ritchie has fought week after week to make sure that he stays in this competition, and he is really enjoying it, especially with this medley of Mambo Number Five/She Bangs
But is that enough at this stage of the show?
Download Stevi's medley Mambo Number Five/ She Bangs
Last week you heard Ben surprisingly singing a Michael Jackson song, and this week our rock star from Croydon is busting out this Big Band classic.
Will the top brass be impressed by his delivery or will they think he should stick to his rock roots?
Download Ben's version of Cry Me A River
The first of the Overs to treat you to a medley and what a medley it was! Not many people would get away with mixing Alicia Keys and Frank Sinatra songs but Jay James seems to be able to do just about anything according to Simon.
Hmmm, not sure if Cheryl would agree with that. What will the Judges say tonight?
Download Jay's medley of Empire State of Mind/New York New York

This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and export managers whose primary concern is the world market for crushed or ground pepper. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics that appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for crushed or ground pepper for those firms serving the world via exports and foreign direct investment. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
In what follows, this report begins by summarizing the world market for crushed or ground pepper exports. The total level of exports on a worldwide basis is based on a model that aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market. These shares lead to a volume of export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each supplier and the destinations (countries served by the supplier country). From these figures, world rankings are calculated. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information for strategic planning purposes.

Bought this for a two week to Switzerland. I wanted a light weight quick dry shirt that didn't sacrifice style. This shirt does not disappoint! A quick wash in the sink and its good to go. Great to wear around bigger cities and not look like you're on the trail. 5'2 117lbs XS fits perfect.
Don't know how it happened but I started buying my wife some of her clothes. I had gotten her an ex officio shirt like this before and she loved. It is functional and still very feminine. It fits how she likes and can be used when she is trying to look a little nicer or very casual. Light and comfortable. You really can't go wrong.
I bought this shirt after trying several others. It's great for working outdoors in the summer. It's super light and breathable, packs nicely, has great pockets and sleeves, and sun protection. I have a large bust and have trouble finding button ups that look right. This one is great. I'm 5'2", 125 lbs and the medium was HUGE on me, so I went with a small. When I'm traveling, I wash this shirt in the sink and it's dry in a few hours. Bottom line, this shirt is awesome.

1724 Tasting Notes
This was recommended to me as a tea that's good iced – but I had to try it hot first. The flavours are interesting – distinctly fresh with a slightly sweet, hay-like quality. It's a bit herbal though not as much as I would expect with those ingredients. It's all very smooth and pleasant – and I'll definitely ice my next cup to see how it is.
Also, despite the name, it doesn't contain any orange flavouring – I think the 'mandarin' part is supposed to be in denotation of the Chinese origin of the herbs (ginkgo, jiao gu lan).
Guys guess what? – Adagio has lowered its international shipping charges – which means that after several years, I can buy from them again!
This is quite a neat looking tea – the leaves really do look like tight curls. I've often heard Yunnan teas described as 'peppery' but I think that this is the first time I've actually been able to taste what they're taking about; it doesn't bite the tongue like pepper does but there's a spiciness in the back of the mouth at the end of each sip. There's also a tannin flavour that I'm more familiar with in this tea type, though in this case it's quite smooth unlike some teas where there's almost a cigarette-like tone to them (bleh). This tea on the other hand is more like leather with a faint hint of cocoa-like bitterness in there.
I look forward to trying more teas in Adagio's Master collection especially – they've added quite a few new ones since I last purchased from them.
This is tea is surprisingly good with milk which is almost never the case with yerba mates. I think the base being a roasted mate rather than a green one makes the difference. The milk lessens the bite of the cayenne pepper somewhat much like drinking milk after eating something spice eases the heat I guess.
I know the person who owns this company and I often see her at the farmers market in town. A couple weeks ago, when she noticed me eying up this tea, she was nice enough to give me a sample for free.
The scent of the dry tea makes me think of nut brittle, sort of nutty and toffee-like – but when I added the water it changed to something like apple cinnamon (odd since there's no apple in this blend, but that may be the rooibos). The flavour is mostly cinnamon-flavoured rooibos, though there's a smooth undertone of vanilla that keep it from tasting too woody. There's a bit of almond flavour if you tilt your head and squint, but more would be nice.
Not a bad tea at all – red rooibos isn't really my thing so I wouldn't shell out the money for a whole tin, but it's nice enough for drinking in the evenings before bedtime (possibly with a cookie for dessert).
I've never tried a Vietnamese tea before, although apparently there's a fairly big tea industry in the country – it's just that little of it seems to get imported to N. America. The tea is loosely rolled into balls – or maybe a more accurate description is lumps. Dry they have a fresh green scent but as they steep the tea takes on the floral scent I'm familiar with in green oolongs. The tea is gently lilac flavoured though most tung ting have a roasted or baked undertone while this one has what I would call a mineral taste instead. I wouldn't consider this the best tung ting I've ever had, but it's certainly decent quality-wise.
The company I purchased this tea from was sadly short-lived but I'm not too surprised – we're more of a Tim Hortons coffee-type city than anything resembling cultured. They did have some interesting blends while they were active though, among them several flavoured pu'erh blends.
The pu'erh base in this one is fairly mild and gentle with a nice, rich peaty flavour. As you might guess from the title mint is the main flavour component but the vanilla gives the tea a creamy sweetness and the cinnamon gives it a hint of warm spice. It all works very nicely together and it makes me wish I'd thought to grab more of the company's flavoured pu'erhs while I had the chance.
This tea reminds me somewhat of Adagio's Thai Chai with its mix of coconut and lemongrass. This one is obviously lighter with its white tea base and it has more of a herbal undertone to it thanks, I'm guessing, to the lemon myrtle and ginger root. The ginger is subtle which is rare for such a strong-flavoured ingredient and I like the creamy coconut flavours that actually remind me quite closely of coconut milk.
So I doubled the amount of tea I used and upped the steeping time and while it is an improvement, I'm still rather disappointed with this tea. It's quite sweet which may be due to all the sugar on the dried fruits which I could see being a problem for people with dietary restrictions – it tastes as though I added a teaspoon or more of honey or sugar to my cup(!) The flavour is still rather weak though I am getting some general fruity notes mixed with a bit of spice, but nothing that I would call distinctly fig-like in flavour. Meh, it's quite disappointing overall.
Sipdown (finally) I've discovered that this blend is just as good if not better iced than it is hot. I wish Frank would consider reblending it or something similar, but unfortunately his fruit flavoured teas don't seem as popular in general.

Animal Science Masters Degree Programs
Find information about master's-level animal science degree programs, and check the educational prerequisites. Take a look at the typical program coursework, and review employment outlook statistics for animal science careers.
Essential Information
Animal science is the biological study of domesticated animals such as horses, cattle and other livestock. With a master's degree in animal science, professionals can become animal scientists and conduct independent animal science research studies in various settings. For instance, a Master of Science in Animal Science program prepares specialists for research or postsecondary teaching positions with universities, federal agencies and private agricultural companies.
The 2-year program is research-intensive and teaches students advanced animal science concepts in genetics and reproduction, animal management and agricultural ecology. Students learn how to conduct animal science research studies and then apply theories to practical animal science situations. Many programs offer specific areas of focus in equine studies, livestock management or sustainable agriculture.
Education Prerequisites
To enroll in an animal science master's degree program, students must have a bachelor's degree from an accredited university. Students are also required to submit undergraduate transcripts and GRE test scores.
Program Coursework
Courses in an animal science master's degree combine animal life sciences, agricultural knowledge and business operation concepts for professionals looking to manage animal or agricultural organizations. Students can take advantage of animal science seminars, agriculture workshops and internship opportunities with animal clinics, schools and private agriculture businesses. Common courses include:
- Livestock management
- Animal reproduction
- Agricultural science
- Animal physiology
- Animal genetics research
Employment Outlook and Career Information
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the number of opportunities for animal scientists is expected to increase by 13% from 2010 to 2020, about as fast as the average for all occupations. There were 2,120 animal scientists in the U.S. as of May 2012. The mean annual salary for professionals working for federal agencies in animal science was $101,550 as of the same month.
Continuing Education Information
Although a master's degree qualifies animal science professionals for many research and teaching positions, a Ph.D. allows for greater overall career advancement. Senior and supervisory research positions with universities, federal agencies and private agricultural organizations often require animal scientists to have a Ph.D. in Animal Science or Agriculture. A Ph.D. in Animal Science also allows professionals to pursue independent consulting careers by providing information-based advice to agricultural businesses.

Scientists Try to Harness Wave Energy
GARDINER, Ore. (AP) — As the price of a barrel of oil continues to surge, scientists are turning to the ocean as a possible source of alternative energy.
The potential for harnessing the power of waves has drawn serious study by Oregon State University, federal and state agencies, and communities along the Oregon Coast.
"There's a real good chance that Oregon could turn into kind of the focal point in the United States for wave energy development and I think that would be a boon to the economy," said Gary Cockrum, spokesman for the Central Lincoln People's Utility District.
Groups hoping to begin work on experimental technology are considering the International Paper mill site in Gardiner.
"We have a lot of momentum going for it, I think, but we still have to work out lot of details," said Alan Wallace, Oregon State University professor of electrical engineering.
The plan is to take over the site to make it a showcase for a "renewable ocean extraction system," he said.
Last Friday at the Port of Umpqua office in Reedsport, officials from Oregon Department of Energy, Oregon State University, Electrical Power Research Institute and other federal and state officials gathered to explain the fledgling project to more than 100 southern Oregon Coast residents.
"There is tremendous potential in the oceans to supply energy for the world," Annette von Jouanne, an Oregon State electrical engineering professor told the crowd. "A 10-square-mile wave power plant could supply the entire state of Oregon."
The electric institute and the Bonneville Power Administration identified the Gardiner site as the ideal place for the project in their feasibility study.
The former mill has an outflow pipe already in place – a structure that could reduce the cost of building a power plant. Electricity from the Gardiner site could be transmitted to other stations up and down the coast.
Money is the biggest obstacle. It will take about $5 million to complete the project's initial phases. But the recently passed federal energy bill could reduce much of that burden.
U.S. Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Ore., who is visiting the southern Coast this week, called the project "intriguing." He added: "I would definitely be supportive."
At first, he was skeptical that a system could function along the Pacific Northwest Coast, famous for its rough seas. But he said he's seen a similar system operate successfully off the coast of Scotland.
How much energy could be generated from the water is still unclear, but those involved with the project say the possibilities could be limitless.
"I read something involved with this that said if 0.2 percent of the ocean's energy were harnessed, it could produce enough energy to power the entire world," added Cockrum, the utility district spokesman.

Radar isn't mentioning the person's name, and has closed comments on the story... [quote]A world-famous actress has had a secret video recording of her suffering a terrifying drug and booze overdose presented in a court as part of her bitter child custody case, RadarOnline.com can reveal.

But this website can report that a disgruntled former assistant of the actress — she is one of the most recognizable faces to appear on the silver screen and has starred in dozens of films — provided the cell phone video to the woman's estranged partner. He subsequently used it in support of his bid to strip her of custodial rights of their children.
