And what's wrong with the flagger? You've never seen a Rt/E or E/Rt flagger?!
And what's wrong with the flagger? You've never seen a Rt/E or E/Rt flagger?!
I don't like the runner so much either. 5 weapon spells? I'd drop a few of those and add some more utility on him.
arent those the best example of utility spells?5 weapon spells
well i guess they are buffss...
You see quite much Rt/* runners, just like Mo/E and E/Mo runners...
If you look at the right matches you might also see at some times Me/E or Me/D runners what are mostly build for anti-gank. Just as the N/* runners, tho.
its quite a standard build... im not quite sure how you will split though, except for the ranger everyone else will be pretty sucky for a split... the runner maybe, but without a snare himself... dunno i just prefer the e/mo water runner myself
i prefer 2 axe wars for the front line, one more defensive bulls/shock/evis/exec/heal sig (splitter), the other pure offense- bulls/rending touch/evis/exec/agonizing (center), both with frenzy/rush
u should consider swapping one of the wards for gale on the ele... i mean ur clearly a flag stand team, without gale and water snares, only 1 shock as a kd, how u gonna slow down their runner? especially if your ranger is in the split?
You can split your warrior, ranger, and runner for a hard split. If you plan on slowing down their runner, just have your ranger push their flagger after he caps. It'll be pretty easy since he's a cripshot.
war without a heal sig in a split is somewhat of a liability imo... shock helps out somewhat but still
its gonna be hard for the ranger to push their runner if hes in the split
im not talking out of my ***, i played the exact same shock warrior build for about 3 months without a heal sig, i was the splitter
since then i play the same shock warrior WITH a heal sig
the difference is pretty huge.. the runner can be somewhere else, he can be dazed, dead, too busy healing himself, etc, where ur relying on a mending touch from the ranger for all ur healing needs
especially against shadow prison sins/teleporting sins, the difference is absolutely huge. being able to shock, and heal sig is great

Are you being serious?? I love it how nobody ever gives reasons why they 'hate' Kris Humphries. It must be that you wet your bed because you are so in love with Kim and Kayne. SAD, SAD, SAD!!! Or is it that he just doesn't have enough in him to be playing in Brooklyn where everybody be OOOHHH SO VERY HARD BABY!!! (Deron Williams?? not quite) That girl in Oklahoma ought to go get her self checked and have the funk removed that was left by Ray-j and the chow line that followed.

So most people hate Kris Humphries now right?? I know I do. The big question is why is this lady Thunder's fan touching him on his arm on his way to the locker room? And how does she not realize he's going to be sweating like a race horse after playing a full game of basketball? These fans should be flicking him off if anything. He's on the opposing team that's beating you by 16 points, and 20 seconds before that your star player Kevin Durant got his first ejection.....EVER. Step it up Thunder fans.

The so called fan is an idiot. She could be brought up on charges for groping Chris. She should keep her hands to her fat self. This is not news. Probably a plant by the Kardashian clan.

Baristas at Starbucks, 3900 N. 124th St., had a nasty surprise for the third time at 12:44 p.m. Feb. 13. A man had stolen their tip jar.
According to the Wauwatosa police report:
An anonymous customer told the manager that a man had just taken the tip jar and was running out the door.
While there was only $20 in the tip jar, the flustered manager wasn't about to let the man get away without a chase. He bolted down the road, pursuing him for a quarter-mile.
The chase ended at the 12100 block of West Capitol Drive, where the thief jumped into a waiting getaway car and flew down the road.
The vehicle is described as a gold-colored, mid-'90s station wagon with a rounded back end.

What's happening in and around your community at Wesley Seminary
My days as public school teacher taught me that I wasn't the only teacher of the students. Teaching in suburban schools with inner city issues taught me the importance of the teamwork of education. We needed everybody to teach: the secretary, guidance counselor, custodian, maintenance personnel, bus drivers and the cafeteria workers to educate our children. Even now, many of our schools must endure the same kind of educational environment, where all in the school and the community work together to create an environment for education that promotes learning in our children...

China suffers world's worst flight delays, says report
BEIJING – Air passengers in China experience the world's most disrupted travel plans, according to a report which names two of the country's major airports and its leading airlines among the most delayed.
Beijing International Airport is the world's most delayed airport, with just 18.3 percent of commercial passenger flights leaving on schedule, the report claims.
Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport reported the second worst departure record with 23.5 percent leaving on time, according to the study by FlightStats, a US-based air travel information service.
About 42 percent of flights from Beijing and 40 percent of flights from Shanghai suffered delays of 45 minutes or longer, the statistics said.
The report monitored figures throughout June in 35 major international airports.
Flightstats also said eight of the 10 worst-performing Asian airlines in terms of delays were Chinese carriers, without giving reasons.

? (fair enough if you don't feel like spending the time to talk at length about this btw).
People bring up cases of players who've been caught as proof there's doping in tennis, and then they'll say the ATP covers players up... seems contradictory to me.
I don't think it's weak at all. It proves that they will cover up for players if necessary. What makes you think they won't do it again, or haven't done it again since then? I believe they most likely have covered up for other players after Andre. The fact that they did it once is enough to prove their dishonesty.
Their budget, the lack of blood testing, the fact that they didn't start testing for EPO until only a few years ago, the lack of OOC testing, the lack of IC testing, the lack of testing winners after matches, the lack of boosting testing for players who have a sudden increase in performance, the fact that players can miss 3 OOC tests in a year's time before anything is done about it, etc... I could go on all day about this. If they really want to catch these people they have got to make changes and get more stringent testing policies.
They have also got to spend a whole lot more money than they do now, which is only a little over a million a year last I heard. Compare that to the testing in Cycling where they spent nearly 5 million on anti-doping last year.
Also, just last year the ITF only conducted 21 OOC blood tests. Only 21 for all those players. That is not even close to being good enough to catch anyone. It's far too easy to get away with doping yourself as much as you like with pathetic testing like that. They only conducted 2,150 tests altogether on a total of 642 players, which the majority of were urine tests. 510 of them weren't tested OOC at all last year. Do you really think that's good enough to catch anyone? Each player had less than 4 tests all of last year. Not good enough by a landslide.

Audio Accessory Reviews
Anthem Room Correction (ARC) System - Part 2 - Including a Subwoofer
- Written by Dr. David A. Rich
- Published on 17 April 2013
In Part 1 of this series, we discussed the Anthem ARC (Anthem Room Correction) firmware that is present in their SSPs as well as the AVRs which have a reduced filter bank size. By far, the most significant sonic issue for acoustic music when a subwoofer is deployed occurs around the crossover from the subwoofer to the main speaker. In Part 2 of this series, we take a look at Anthem's ARC (Anthem Room Correction) when adding a subwoofer to the system.

Meridian Explorer USB DAC
- Written by Stephen Hornbrook and Chris Heinonen
- Published on 21 February 2013
Computer audio is all the rage now, with many people moving their entire digital collections to music servers, and the laptop taking the place of the CD player in many systems. The technologies behind USB DACs have evolved rapidly to where the interface is now on the same level as Coaxial or Optical interfaces. One area that hasn't been addressed as well is the portable audio market, as most USB DACs are rack-sized components that require a wall power supply. This is certainly not a convenient option for those of us that want high-resolution audio on the go.

We've all heard the adage a dozen times: your room is far more important to the sound that you get out of your system than the system itself. While this statement may very well be true, the process of tackling "your room" is far more difficult than deciding what type of receiver or speaker wire you should buy. Welcome to the world of acoustics: incredibly complicated and undoubtedly intimidating. The XTZ Room Analyzer may just be the thing to help get you into this world a little easier.

MBL, WOODS HOLE, MA Osamu Shimomura, a senior scientist emeritus and Corporation member at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL), has been awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his discovery of green fluorescent protein (GFP), one of the most important tools in contemporary science and medicine for illuminating life at the microscopic level.
Dr. Shimomura shares the prize, which was announced early today in Stockholm, with Martin Chalfie of Columbia University, New York, and Roger Y. Tsien of University of California, San Diego.
Dr. Shimomura, prior to his retirement, was an MBL senior scientist from 1982-2001. He first noticed a green fluorescing molecule in the jellyfish Aequorea in 1961. He patiently extracted the molecule from 10,000 specimens, purified it, and identified as a protein. The protein, he reported, fluoresces green when hit with ultraviolet light. Today, GFP is a guiding star for biochemists, medical scientists and other researchers. With the aid of GFP, researchers have developed ways to watch processes that were previously invisible, such as the development of nerve cells in the brain or how cancer cells spread.
"GFP technology has revolutionized what we can see at the most fundamental levels of life," says Gary Borisy, director and chief executive officer of the MBL and a prominent cell biologist. "GFP is revealing, for example, how proteins move and interact in cells. Now that the human genome is sequenced, understanding protein function is one of the greatest scientific and medical challenges of our time. "
The tremendous utility of GFP in probing the inner life of cells and their components was demonstrated by Chalfie, who in 1994 showed how GFP can be used as luminous genetic tag for various biological phenomena. When the gene for GFP is attached to the gene for some protein of interest, then when the cell makes the protein, it also makes the GFP, which "lights up" the protein and allow

Werder Bremen's director of sport Klaus Allofs hopes that yesterday's 2-2 draw with Bayer Leverkusen will be the turning point in his side's season. Two goals in the last eight minutes earned Bremen a point from the jaws of defeat, and Allofs feels the way his players fought back augurs well for the future.
"You must never give up and sometimes the impossible is possible in football," he said. "This was a win for our morale. It also taught the team something and this lesson should make our job easier. This point will bring the team closer together, but we will still have to win soon to get out of danger. This should be stimulation for all of our games."
Bremen had slipped into the bottom three before yesterday's game, while Leverkusen were aiming to move six points clear of third-placed Bayern Munich in the hunt for the second automatic qualification berth for the UEFA Champions League next season.
Doubts had been raised about whether Thomas Schaaf was the right man to lead Bremen to safety in his 13th season in charge, but Allofs says there cannot be any such doubt. "Of course there are people who say that he is no longer the right coach, but the majority still want him," he said. "And he can see that."
Leverkusen coach Jupp Heynckes revealed himself to be one of Schaaf's biggest fans after the match as he hid his own disappointment at losing two points and praised his counterpart.
"He is one of the greats in the Bundesliga and he is one of the all-time greats," said Heynckes, who was sitting just several feet away from a visibly moved Schaaf at the post-match press conference. I saw Thomas very relaxed and in total control of things today and I can remember all that he has built here in Bremen and those fantastic European cup evenings."
Bremen will probably have to wait more than a year for more of those European nights at the Weser Stadion, although the opportunity to qualify again next season by remaining in the Bundesliga will still be an achievement this season, as was yesterday's point. "To get a draw when you were 2-0 down in our situation is a success," said Schaaf.

Influential US poet Scott-Heron dies at 62
NEW YORK—US lyricist and poet Gil Scott-Heron, who told the world "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" and inspired a generation of hip-hop artists, has died at the age of 62, his record company said Saturday.
Scott-Heron, an African-American who first gained fame for his poetry and spoken word performances in the late 1960s, saw his influence grow until he was dubbed the "Godfather of Rap."
His early albums, "Pieces of a Man" and "Winter in America," have been credited with influencing a generation of hip-hop musicians who followed him.
"RIP to 1 of tha greats Gil Scott-Heron," US rap artist Snoop Dogg tweeted.
Rap artist Eminem also weighed in with a Twitter post: "RIP Gil Scott-Heron. He influenced all of hip-hop."
Scott-Heron died Friday at a New York hospital, according to XL Recordings. The cause of death was not immediately known but US media reported that he recently returned home after feeling ill while traveling in Europe.
Much of his music reflected his struggle with an addiction to drugs and alcohol. He has said he was HIV-positive.
"Gil shunned all the trappings of fame and success. He could have had all those things. But he was greater than that," XL Recordings founder and owner Richard Russell wrote on his website.
"He seemed wholly uninterested in money… To my knowledge, he never accepted an award. He always wanted everyone else to receive credit for their work.
Russell hailed Scott-Heron's "immense talent."
"He was a master lyricist, singer, orator and keyboard player," Russell continued. "He had a fierce intelligence, and a way with words which was untouchable."
Recorded in 1970, "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" was a percussion-backed anti-establishment opus that challenged advertising, media and police brutality.
The revolution "will not make you look five pounds thinner… will not go better with Coke," he stated in the recording. Popular TV shows "will no longer be so damned relevant… because black people will be in the street looking for a brighter day."

L'Oreal, the world's largest beauty and cosmetic company based in Paris, will pump in close to Rs 1,000 crore in India over the next five years.
Pierre-Yves Arzel, MD of L'Oreal India, said 30% of its investments in India so far were for building up a research and development centre in Mumbai and another advanced research centre in Bangalore.
In the next phase, the company plans to expand the manufacturing capacity of its plant in Pune. "Right now, we've a production capacity in excess of 200 million units of beauty products a year and we are looking at doubling it," said Mohamed Kanji, director of research and innovation at L'Oreal India.
L'Oreal also plans to invest in improving its supply chain and distribution centres. That is not all. The company is aggressively looking at acquisitions to expand its footprint.
"We would be interested to consider potential acquisitions of Indian brands. We are waiting for an opportunity in this space,"said Jean-Paul Agon, chairman and CEO of L'Oreal.
The company is also turning its focus on ayurvedic and herbal ingredients. "In the coming years, we expect that more ingredients from the medicinal, aromatic plants from the world of ayurveda will be used in our products," said Kanji.
L'Oreal would be keen on harnessing ayurveda with its modern technology. For instance, the company is exploring ways in which henna can be used in modern hair colour.
Besides, the company may well enter the hair oil market. Analysts said this is not surprising, considering that Hindustan Unilever has also extended its Dove brand to hair oil.
On the services front, L'Oreal has been adding about 5,000-10,000 salons every year. It plans to sustain that pace even as it shifts its focus to opportunities in smaller towns, cities and e-commerce, particularly to promote its luxury fragrance brands like Giorgio Armani and Ralph Lauren.
In the premium segment, the company is planning to expand its Kiehl Boutiques.
With 8-10% of market share, L'Oreal India expects to clock in Rs 1,580 crore turnover. Agon said that going ahead, the plan is to more than quadruple this to Rs 7,000 crore by 2020.
Despite the slowdown talk in India, the company claims it has managed to post 30% compounded annual growth rate in the past ten years. It is confident of sustaining this growth rate.
For the first time in L'Oreal's history, emerging markets have begun to contribute more than established markets such as western Europe, making countries like India (which is now estimated to be the sixth largest beauty market) increasingly important.

Rated 4.3 out of 5Â by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by fpj9 Love these! I strongly disagree w/the other review...(but I'm also a huge fan of Blank NY jeans) these are amazing vegan skinnies. They do run a bit small, I usually take a 29 in Blank NY and they have a bit of room, but these babies fit snug as a bug. They look good that way; but if your normal size fits you snug already, size up one size for sure. They are flattering, lightweight, and look awesome w/a white t-shirt. (34-27-37) 5'8, 135lbs. Hope this helps! Enjoy! 2.6.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by emdore LOVE! I hardly ever post reviews, but I have been looking for great fitting faux leather pants for a while now. These are PERFECT!!! They fit beautifully and wear really well throughout the day. I listened to the other reviewers - these do run a tiny bit small, so please order up one size from your regular size. 4.29.2014
Rated 3 out of 5Â by ABGlasgow I've had better These run about one size smaller than your normal size. I was pretty disapointed when I tried them on. I think they look cheap compare to the actual free people faux leather skinnies. The material looks different in the picture than in real life. They look and feel very cheap for the asking price.I gave them a 3 because I'm just not that impressed. I would have given 4 stars if they also had real front pockets. 2.5.2014

So my son just turned 14 months. About a week ago he got a fever that lasted a day and found that he was teething. At that point he was still breastfeeding (twice a day). I was thinking of moving to one feeding throughout the day b/c it didn't seem like he was emptying me. Once the fever was gone he started a runny nose and his appetite wasn't that great for a couple of days. At that point he was refusing to breastfeed. His appetite has been back the past few days, but he still hasn't breastfed. I still offer it to him throughout the day, but he refuses to go on.
Has anyone else experienced this? Do you think he stopped himself for good? I'm not sure if I should keep offering and if so how long I should do this? I think part of me is still in denial and sad if he is for sure done with breastfeeding, b/c i know I'm not.
The fact is that a 14 mo old still NEEDS milk. So I don't know if your baby still has bottles, or drinks cow milk to meet his need for nursing. If so, it's your choice to continue trying or wean him completely.
I would continue to offer.
I know that he still needs milk in which I do give almond milk during meals that he drinks from a cup. I have only strictly breastfed and have not done any bottles with him. I guess I will continue to offer to him and see what happens.
But has anyone else had a similar experience where their child has stopped breastfeeding by themselves like this without having to fully wean them off?
Although my DD nursed longer (about 2.5), I have two friends who would have loved to nurse into the toddler years whose babes self- weaned at about this age. Both are perfectly healthy, wonderful, affectionate, and well-adjusted girls. One stopped during a heat wave before a year old because she is a touch/texture sensitive girl who just didn't want to be stuck to Mom anymore. The other was just way more interested in all the other food she could have instead and simply lost interest in nursing. All babies are different. If you are worried about him getting the immunity and other benefits from breast milk for a bit longer, you could always pump and put some in a cup. Sorry if you do not feel ready to stop as he seems to be. It may be a bit sad and feel like he is growing up fast, but you have already way surpassed the average length of breast feeding and your LO can have other sources of nutrition.
Me College Literature Professor (36) and DH (35) married 7/05, together since 1/99; Mom to two lovely and fierce little girls: DD1 2/06 and, after 18 months TTC (and a couple years NTNP), DD2 born 7/3/12! Dedicated AP parent who is for selective (most) vaccination.
I experienced a similar self-weaning during an illness. My DS stopped on his own when he was 3 months old while he was hospitalized for a severe UTI. He had been hooked up to IVs (pulled the first two out on his own ), catheterized, and had various scans and tests and simply had enough of being handled. The poor little dude would drink expressed breastmilk but just wanted to not be held to nurse. He had this whole demeanor of "Hands off!" The abrupt weaning was harder on me than it was for him. The last time he nursed was a few days after we got home from the hospital.
Babies in Heaven... 9/04 2/05 3/11 4/11 6/11 11/11 2/12 (along with my tube) 9/14 1/15
Good luck!
Just an FYI, it's my understanding that Almond Milk is nutritionally more like "almond juice" and is not really a substitution for milk (....being dairy-free now, I'm not sure how we'll approach that when my now 5 mo old gets bigger). You may want to look into goats milk if you want an alternative to human milk and feel he needs some kind of milk.
Laurie, wife to DH (Aug/04), mom toDS1 (Nov/05) and DS2 (June/12).

A migratory population of 78 pairs of Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) nesting along the Willamette River in westernOregon was studied in 1993. The study was designed to determinecontaminant concentrations in eggs, contaminant concentrationsin fish species predominant in the Ospreys diet, andBiomagnification Factors (BMFs) of contaminants from fish specieseaten to Osprey eggs. Ten Osprey eggs and 25 composite samplesof fish (3 species) were used to evaluate organochlorine (OC)pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinateddibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), and polychlorinated dibenzofurans(PCDFs). Mercury was also analyzed in fish. Geometric meanresidues in Osprey eggs were judged low, e.g., DDE 2.3 μg g-1 wet weight (ww), Σ PCBs 0.69 μg g-1, 2,3,7,8-TCDD 2.3 ng kg-1, and generally well below known threshold values for adverse effects on productivity, and the population was increasing. Osprey egg residue data presentedby River Mile (RM) are discussed, e.g., higher PCDDs were generally found immediately downstream of paper mills and eggsfrom the Willamette River had significantly elevated PCBs and PCDDs compared to reference eggs collected nearby in the CascadeMountains. Prey remains at nest sites indicated that the Largescale Sucker (Catostomus macrocheilus) and NorthernPikeminnow (Ptychocheilus oregonensis) accounted for an estimated 90.1% of the biomass in the Osprey diet, and composite samples of these two species were collected from different sampling sites throughout the study area for contaminant analyses. With the large percentage of the fishbiomass in the Osprey diet sampled for contaminants (and fisheaten by Ospreys similar in size to those chemically analyzed),and fish contaminant concentrations weighted by biomass intake, a mean BMF was estimated from fish to Osprey eggs for the largeseries of contaminants. BMFs ranged from no biomagnification(0.42) for 2,3,7,8-TCDF to 174 for OCDD. Our findings for themigratory Osprey were compared to BMFs for the resident HerringGull (Larus argentatus), and differences are discussed. Webelieve a BMF approach provides some basic understanding ofrelationships between contaminant burdens in prey species offish-eating birds and contaminants incorporated into their eggs,and may prove useful in understanding sources of contaminants inmigratory species although additional studies are needed.

Valance Speed grille arrived quickly and intact. Great packaging to protect it during shipment. Installation requires intermediate skills...not for the beginner. Looks great on Fusion and really sets it apart from other Fusions on the road. Durability rating will come later but I think it will hold up just fine.

Emma Watson and Kate Bosworth Wear Rodarte in London
Battle of the Rodarte: Watson vs. Bosworth
by Fashion
Like us on Facebook
The Rodarte sisters, Laura and Kate Mulleavy, cohosted a special dinner last night with Kate Bosworth at the Harvey Nichols Fifth Floor restaurant in London. Of her peach silk and net Rodarte dress, Kate Bosworth said: "It's kind of deconstructed ballerina." If Kate was a deconstructed ballerina, then actress Emma Watson was a rebel dancer in her bold black, blue, and white Rodarte frock. Both stars wore Rodarte's Spring frocks beautifully, but only one can win this battle. Who's it gonna be?

Backyard hog raisers suspend selling pork
DAGUPAN CITY—If there are no pork from newly slaughtered pigs in public markets today, it is because backyard hog raisers have chosen to keep their stocks rather than sell them and lose.
Rosendo So, president of the Northern Luzon Hog Raisers Cooperative and director of the Swine Development Council, said backyard hog raisers on Friday decided to suspend supplying pork to public markets because of the government's alleged helplessness in stopping meat smuggling in the country.
At 11:30 a.m. on Friday, So said backyard hog raisers stopped selling their stocks. "This means there will be no hogs in slaughterhouses to be butchered on Friday night," So said.
"[Backyard raisers] do not want to sell their pigs because of heavy losses. They want the government instead to buy their stocks," So said.
He said the backyard hog industry has been hurting because smuggled meat, which are passed on as fresh meat, are being sold at lower prices. "The smugglers are not paying taxes, so they can just sell their products from P6 to P10 a kilogram," he said.
The suspension of pork supply was decided by commercial and backyard hog raisers in the country during their convention in Cebu City last week, So said.
"We have been trying to call on the government to stop technical smuggling of meat, but it has always turned a deaf ear to our pleas," he said.
In his letter to Bureau of Animal Industry (BAI) Director Efren Nuestro, So said the total importation of pork, chicken, beef and buffalo meat rose from 200 million kilograms in 2005 to 408 million kg in 2011.
"Our commitment to the World Trade Organization is 54 million kg as minimum access volume (MAV) and we only used up 40,283,059 kg in 2011. What we are questioning is that we imported 169,218,977 kg as per your own admission," So said.
"The problem is not in the MAV but the volume of offal (innards) importation which is abused by importers through technical smuggling," So said.
He said in 2010, the United Nations reported that 56 million kg of offal entered the country, but BAI figures showed 105 million kg. Last year, he said, the UN said that only 51 million kg of offal entered the country but BAI figures showed 114 million kg.
"The discrepancies can only mean that 49 million kg were smuggled in 2010 and 63 million kg smuggled in 2011," So said. Gabriel Cardiñoza and Yolanda Sotelo, Inquirer Northern Luzon

Aerolíneas Argentinas plans to operate a total of 73 new aircraft by 2014, according to its business plan.
Aerolíneas' President Mariano Recalde announced the Group's business plan for the next four years and presented the new carrier's livery. Recalde said that the main objective of the business plan is to "contribute to the economic and social development of the country, and connecting the Argentineans".
"We want to put to Aerolíneas in the place where sometimes it was, in the place of a public service that serves to the interests of the country like a tool for the development of the Argentineans and that serves of quality and excellence", commented Recalde.
According to him, Aerolíneas will operate 15 widebody as well as 38 narrowbody in addition to the 20 Embraer 190s, for which its domestic subsidiary Austral Lineas Aereas placed an order last year. The first of 20 E-190 is scheduled for delivery in July and according to Recalde, Austral will take delivery of two aircraft a month.
The carrier, which operates three Boeing 747-400s, four A340-200s and three A340-300s, said last year it was considering acquiring 15 Boeing 787s with deliveries beginning as early as 2011 as part of a tender which also seeks bids for up to 40 narrowbody aircraft.
Aerolíneas has taken a total of 12 737-700s on lease from lessors over the past year as it seeks to phase out its MD80 fleet. Aerolíneas and Austral jointly operate a total of 11 MD83s and 10 MD88s. Aerolíneas also has 17 737-500s in operation.

Currently I'm working on a file and all of a sudden I see this small mark but I have no idea what it is or how I can get rid of it. Any suggestions?
Hi Paul,
That mark is because you have used the sample color tool.
Just select the tool again (I), and right below the file menu of Photoshop you will see a "Delete" button, click on it and the mark is gone.
Thank you very much Aurove, I didn't even know how it got there! Thank you!
You´re welcome Paul.
Maybe you accidentally click on the dropper dropdown tool menu… it happens.

PH investment grade rating fuels bull run
popular .
MANILA, Philippines—It came as a surprise catalyst that revitalized the bulls into scaling unprecedented heights before the long Lenten break.
As the Philippine government bagged a much-coveted investment grade rating from Fitch Ratings, the main-share Philippine Stock Exchange index rallied by 182.35 points or 2.74 percent towards its best ever finish of 6,847.47 on Wednesday. A new intra-day peak was also hit at 6,873.89 close to the end of the session.
This marked the 24th record finish for the index this year. The local stock market, which is now on its fifth year of upswing, has gained a total of 1,034.74 or 17.8 percent at the end of the first quarter.
While trading was mostly upbeat since the start of the shortened trading week due to quarter-end window-dressing, Fitch's rating action allowed the local market to end with a big bang.
At 2:33 p.m. on Wednesday, Fitch announced the upgrade of the Philippines' Long-Term Foreign-Currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR) to 'BBB-' from 'BB+' with a stable outlook, lifting Philippine debt grade out of "junk" status for the first time in history. This immediately triggered a new wave of buying at the stock market during the last hour of trade.
"This is the best news for us Filipinos and we are all part of this," said Ismael Cruz, president of local stock brokerage IGC Securities.
"It's an early Easter for the market," said fund manager Astro del Castillo, managing director at investment management firm First Grade Finance. "It will definitely open the floodgates of investment, both FDI (foreign direct investment) and hot money. The most conservative funds are really just waiting for this feather in our cap before plowing money to our country."
Del Castillo said this rating action would likely trigger a race among the bulls in corporate Philippines. "It seems that the Philippines is no longer carrying its cross," he said.
Jose Mari Lacson, head of research at local stock brokerage Campos Lanuza & Co. said the market's performance on Wednesday turned very exciting with some fast buying of large-caps on the back of the investment upgrade news.
"But the upgrade was announced late in the day, which means that UK and US markets have yet to fully discount the development. They won't get their chance over the next few days, which means that like a rubber band, investment demand for the Philippines could stretch some more by the time the market reopens on Monday," Lacson said.
Local markets are closed in the next two days and will resume only on Monday.
"Barring any major upheaval in the global markets or political scene over the long weekend, we expect Monday to be equally exciting or even be a bigger blast," he said.
Value turnover amounted to P12.92 billion at the local market. There were 110 advancers that edged out 44 decliners while 35 stocks were unchanged.
By counter, property got the day's biggest boost (+3.88 percent) while the industrial, holding firm and services sectors all surged by over 2 percent.
The day's biggest index gainers were MWC (+6.1 percent), ALI (+5.48 percent), SMIC (+5.29 percent), Meralco (+4.75 percent), Jollibee (+4.74 percent), URC (+4.44 percent), PLDT (+4.18 percent), BPI (+3.48 percent), SM Prime (+3.35 percent) and Megaworld (+3.18 percent).
Among the few index stocks that lagged the market on Wednesday were EDC (-2.56 percent) and Globe Telecom (-1.64 percent).
