I am trying to link to my works here on Envato – I have some works in GraphicRiver and will be releasing some for ThemeForest. I need a link that will direct the user to my portfolio, the closest I can find is something like this: http://graphicriver.net/user/RobbyDesigns/portfolio?no_signin=true but as you can see, that will only display what I have made for GraphicRiver.
Any ideas?
Create a collection (bookmarks) with all your files and then link to it… if you check my profile page at the end you will find a collection with my complete portfolio…
Hope it helps
Thanks Parker, appreciate it. Works just fine…now, why didn't I think of that (-:

Today's small business owners are incredibly lucky to have easy-to-use accounting tools like Wave at their fingertips. Throughout the year Wave does so much of the work for you, like importing bank and credit card transactions, it makes it easier than ever to get your financials organized for tax deadlines.
For some, their Wave records may need some attention before the balance sheet and income statement reports are complete and ready for income tax purposes.
Don't worry – you're not alone. Here are four easy steps to getting your balance sheet and income statement reports in tip-top shape!
A big time saving benefit of using Wave is the ability to import your online banking, credit card and payment transaction data. Once the information for your business accounts are imported, all you need to ensure is that Wave matches your account statements and transactions are present in both places.
The best way to start this process is using the 'reconciliation tool' found on the transactions page.
Amongst the filters, choose a payment account to reconcile and the date filters for the period you want to reconcile and then the reconciliation tool begins to work.
Once done, simply check mark each transaction to verify and the reconciliation tool will add the transaction balances.
Now you can determine if the balance found on your account statement and Wave match.
It's important to review your transactions to ensure they all pertain to your business. While doing this, you can also categorize each transaction. Two birds, one stone – everyone's favourite!
To do this, simply click on the down arrow next to the transaction description. In the column under 'category', you can choose form your chart of accounts to categorize the transaction.
Handy Tip #1: Clean up double transactions, for the same transaction. When money comes out of one account i.e. chequing and is applied against another account i.e. credit card, you end up with two transactions in Wave. One will be an uncategorized income and the other will be an uncategorized expense.
To create a transfer and link these two transactions you'll need to click on the small square box far left of each transaction. At the top of the transactions list click 'transfer', this will categorize the transaction as a transfer and will no longer be income or expenses transactions.
Handy Tip #2: Avoid doubling your revenue. If you use Invoice and Payments by Wave, the amount of sales revenue indicated on these invoices accumulates in sales revenue on the income statement report.
When this invoice income is deposited, it also appears as an uncategorized income transaction. To avoid double counting revenue, simply select the down arrow next to the transaction and choose 'create invoice payment'. This will provide a menu of open invoices you can apply the payment towards.
Not all Wave users need to capture VATs for each transaction. Some countries have VATs for which the small business owner can recover the amount they spend in the year on VATs.
Handy Tip #3: It's always a time saver to set up your VAT on the sales taxes page in Wave.
However, in Canada our VATs are GST or HST depending on the province. To capture the VAT on expenses simply click on the transaction to show details. A white box will appear, and then you can choose the VAT to apply to that transaction.
Once you have reconciled and categorized all your transactions, you can now confidentially use your small business financial reports.
Two key reports to use during tax season are the balance sheet and income statement.
On the balance sheet, double check the date is set to the last day of your fiscal accounting period and then review. The balances showing should match your account statements for the same time period. If they don't match, take another look in your transactions for further reconciliation.
On the income statement, also double check the date is set for the first day to the last day of your accounting fiscal period. Now you can see if all the amounts listed are categorized and that no uncategorized income amounts or expenses remain. If some amounts and expenses remain uncategorized, revisit your transactions page to categorize.
By following these 4 easy steps, you'll have accurate and reliable reports you can proudly use to help complete your income tax submission before the deadline. Or happily provide to your accountant for further value this tax season.
If you're already kicking off 2015 in high gear, it's easy to find a Wave Pro that can help you get your records up to speed and ready for income tax filing.
Wave Pros have helped tens of thousands of Wave users get set up properly for the current fiscal year providing assistance with your small business tax and financial planning, forecasting and goal setting.

Follow these 5 tips to preserve the financial health of your company:
S Corp vs LLC Illustration
For example, in 2012, your income was $200,000 and expenses were $100,000. This will result in a net income of $100,000. Under the LLC tax structure, you will pay tax on your taxable income (all business and personal income) and self-employment tax of 15.3% on your net income. The formula is Net income x .9235 x 15.3%. Your self employment tax will be $14,130. The only difference between an S Corp and an LLC is that you will not pay self-employment tax under the S Corp tax structure. Although there is no self-employment tax under the S Corp, you are still required to pay a reasonable salary (payroll taxes will be paid under a salary) if you are profitable. As a general rule, it is a good idea to pay a reasonable salary of 40% of your net income. In the scenario of the company with $100,000 in net income. The company would pay the owner a salary of $40,000. This will result in payroll taxes of $6,120. Typically you would pay approximately another $200 for state unemployment tax and $56 for federal unemployment tax. As a result the total tax paid by the S Corp would be $6,376.
The end result is a tax savings of $7,754.00
In conclusion, surround yourself with a good solid network of professional advisors, including a CPA, attorney and financial advisor. A CPA will provide several services related to tax and accounting, including tax prep, tax planning, bookkeeping, budgeting, entity restructuring and offering general business advice. An attorney will prepare and review all of your contracts and some attorneys specialize in setting up trusts for asset protection. A financial advisor will help you invest your money through short-term, mid-term investments as well as set you up with a retirement plan. Retirement plans are a good way to not only save for the future, but can provide you with significant tax savings for your business. These professional advisors often work together to accomplish the same goal in mind in protecting you and your business, discovering ways to reduce your tax liability and in preserving and growing your wealth.

The Simple Method To Make Any Business More Profitable, Permanently
by Mike Michalowicz
The formula for profitability has been established for ages. Every business owner, CEO, freelancer and entrepreneur knows it. It is even required, in the US by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), which in turn is enforced by the SEC in the United States and the International Accounting Standards Board internationally.
Using GAAP or not, the fundamental profit formula is the same:
Sales – Expenses = Profit
There is just one problem… The formula doesn't generate profits. There is a reason that 21 million out of 28 million small businesses in the US are surviving check to check. It's not that 21 million people are smart enough to start and build a business, yet not smart enough to turn a profit – its that they are relying on a flawed formula. Sales – Expenses = Profit is a lie. The formula prohibits profit.
Logically, of course, the formula is sound. A business must first sell in order to generate inbound cash flow. Then the business deducts the expenses utilized to deliver its product or service and to run its operations. What remains is profit. Profit, effectively, is a leftover.
While the GAAP formula makes logical sense, it ignores the fact that it is managed by people. We are, first and foremost, emotional beings, prone to ignore (or even defy) logic.
Cyril Northcote Parkinson, in his famous bestseller Parkinson's Law, proposed that "work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion." His theory has been generalized to state "The demand upon a resource tends to expand to match the supply of the resource."
Arguably, money is the ultimate resource. In GAAP's "Sales – Expenses = Profit" formula, the business owner sees the cumulative deposits (resource) from sales and has a propensity to conclude that all the money is available for expenses (the demand expands to match the supply). The new equipment purchase is justified because the money is there. A new hire starts, because the money is there. Profit? It is an afterthought. Therefore, there rarely is any.
Now consider a new formula, where a business takes profit first:
Sales – Profit = Expenses
Mathematically the formula is identical to GAAP's. But from the perspective of human behavior, the Profit First formula is radically different. In the Profit First formula a preset percentage of deposits generated through sales are first allocated to profit. The remainder is used to pay expenses.
In practice, as deposits from sales come in a predetermined percentage, for example 15%, is immediately transferred to a separate profit account. The remainder is available for the business leader to run business as usual. The business owner will see his available cash (which has had the profit already deducted) and make decisions accordingly. The new equipment purchase may be delayed, or a more cost effective alternative may be found. A new hire won't be made because the money is not there, and perhaps the entrepreneur will conclude was unnecessary in the first place.
While I have co-founded, built and sold two multi-million dollar technology service firms, admittedly they were never truly profitable. Every increase in revenue seemed to be matched with an even greater increase in expenses. Every day I checked (and still do) my bank balances. As the balances would climb and fall, so would my confidence and my spending. I lavishly incurred new, unnecessary expenses when my bank account was fat. I panicked when it was thin.
This behavior, I have found, is not unique to me. In fact, of the hundreds of entrepreneurs and business owners I have asked, the vast majority also do "bank balance accounting." It was with this realization that I started doing Profit First for myself five years ago. That is when I applied the "pay yourself first" principle to the operations of my businesses. I became my own guinea pig for Profit First.
Every quarter since, I have posted a profit. Every business I have invited to flip the GAAP formula, has also posted a profit or, unfortunately in some cases, decided to give up the system because it put "too much downward pressure on expenses."
GAAP offers so much more in business insights than most entrepreneurs could imagine, but it does fall short on working with an entrepreneurs "bank balance" habit. I have become an advocate for the Profit First approach to cash management, because of the one thing it does do extremely well. It works with the natural habit of business owners. And, it functions as a "plug-in" to all the GAAP accounting systems and processes I have place. It doesn't change GAAP, it simply sits on top.
Profit First has transformed my own businesses for the better (if you consider consistent profits, better). Admittedly, Profit First is not the panacea to all cash flow problems, but it surely makes profit a habit.
We had such a great year in 2014! Accounting and bookkeeping professionals have embraced the cloud, adopting new products and taking on new challenges. Now that functions like bank reconciliation and journal entries can be cloud-based and data entry can be automated, a paperless workflow is the new norm.
Wave has been around for more than four years, but our goals remain the same: to liberate small business owners and to help them succeed. We would not be able to do this without the incredible accountants and bookkeepers who help our customers every day. This past year, there was one Wave Pro in particular who really stood out, an individual who lives and breathes Wave's values. He took on new obstacles and offered an immense amount of his time to Wave customers who wanted to manage their finances more efficiently. It is my pleasure to announce our Wave Pro of 2014: Mr. James Krener and his team at Krener Bookkeeping & Tax!
James welcomes all small business owners to learn more about their accounting system. A small business owner himself, he built his practice from the ground up with Wave. If you want to mix flexibility, generosity, and fun with accounting, KB&T has what you are looking for.
The quote in the picture below resides in James' office and represents KB&T's ultimate vision: to help small business owners rise above their accounting, bookkeeping, and tax with easy and affordable resources.
If you're a brand new small business owner, it can be tough to focus on accounting and bookkeeping with so many other things on the go. You've probably questioned the idea of bringing on a professional but you're not sure what services you need this early in the game.
The team members at Madan Chatered Accountants are experts at helping small business owners succeed on Wave and they were generous enough to share some knowledge.
Here are 3 things they think you should consider:
Hiring the right bookkeeper is essential for making and maintaining a successful business. One of their main jobs is to create a budget for your company. A budget is a forecast of a company's expenditures and revenues over a time period in the future (e.g. 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, etc.).
It's important for business owners to prepare budgets periodically in order to:
1) Better manage cash-flow
2) Plan for any short-falls in cash (e.g. through bank financing)
3) Help allocate company resources
4) Set goals for revenue and profit
In addition to preparing a budget, you as a business owner, should review your company's actual results against the budget to see if financial goals have been achieved and if there is room for improvement.
It's important to review the financial performance (i.e. profitability) of your business at least quarterly with your bookkeeper so that you can:
1) Quantify the business' profits or losses.
2) Identify areas for improvement in sales.
3) Proactively look for cost savings opportunities.
4) Measure your financial results against your competitors.
5) Track your company's financial performance against your goals.
This sounds great, but why should you care about accounting if your business has a healthy cash balance? Well, you should care because accounting will help you know if you're profits are declining, whether there are signs of a sales slump in the future, and whether your cash will run out shortly.

I love me some zombies in all facets of the media but there are always the cliches or problems, whatever you want to call them. I love the classic zombie movies the original Night of the Living Dead (it was directed so well and then so unique then and groundbreaking because the lead hero was black and ppl were getting eaten) The original Dawn of the Dead was pretty good but the 2004 Zack Snyder remake (in my opinion) is superior, it (as well as 28 Days Later) helped reinvigorate zombie films. These movies finally gave us more action and suspense since the once nearly stagnate classic zombies, watching the slow zombies lumber around was scary at first but the same things kept happening in almost every movie and even as a kid I was annoyed and today all too predictable. People in these movies were so annoying and by the time i got to know the characters I'm hoping they get eaten or you can practically predict what will happen. So I submit to the comicvine court a list of zombie stuff that annoys me and should change.
EXHIBIT A: THE HERD OF ZOMBIES that is "unavoidable"
OK I'm pretty sure to avoid a lot of zombies you don't have to be a rocket scientist or a an NFL running back to get past or avoid these sloth like cannibals. They are only dangerous in groups and even...JUST GO AROUND, oh and how do these zombies always seem to come out of no where and sneak up on people? F&$#king ridiculous how do these lumbering (often groaning) zombies get the grace and stealth techniques to sneak up on anyone who is not deaf. But back to the fact that how do we always end up always seeing someone getting swarmed and have to watch from above as their screaming and reaching their hand up as they get pulled down or we watched as they get pulled away somehow as their innards are eviscerated. This is always what happens (even in the more modern zombie movies) these groups can be easily avoided with several easy steps: STEP 1: address the fact that there are multiple zombies in front of you then plan accordingly. STEP 2: Decide if the zombies have seen you then choose how to proceed, SCENARIO A: if spotted and you are armed...RUN AWAY and if you are coordinated enough occasionally fire back but your goal should be to run away...these zombies are slow and bright. SCENARIO B: if you are spotted and you are unarmed...RUN AWAY but the trick is DON'T LOOK BACK these are not champion sprinters and in looking back you have a 98% chance of falling and thus being eaten. SCENARIO C: if you are not spotted...refer to A &/or B. STEP 3: SURVIVE damn-it, escape the d-bags, they're not blood hounds run, hide, assess and escape which equals survival!
Someone in the group of survivors ALWAYS gets bitten or infected but 1 of 2 things usually happens a. they hide it or b. everyone knows but they think they're OK.
VERSIONA.) Someone will get bitten or slip in zombie goo and get infected but they keep it quiet....this happens all the time and usually the same thing happens the person gets all bitey and often gets a chunk of someone and a loved one tearfully kills them or something around those lines. Its so annoying how can someone in a zombie situation and especially in our society when zombies are pretty well known about since they're in all forms of media.
VERSION B.) If a survivor is bitten and the bitten and group are aware of and know what is happening and going to happen to said bitten group member....why the hell do they let them stay, follow...THEN THEY'RE SHOCKED WHEN THEY TURN. Occasionally the person says shoot me if I turn but most of the time they all act like that person will be fine. Those that act like the infected will be fine deserve to be eaten by their friend. OK though I've never been in the situation I assume it's hard to kill your friend (or another human) but come on, knowing he or she will get all, "uuuuuuurgh.......aaaaahhhr.......brains," I would put them out of their misery, I know if was infected I'd ask to be killed so I wouldn't hurt my friends. RARE VERSION) Rarely we get the smart, brave and realistic act in which the infected person stays behind to fight/sacrifice their self.
Whenever a zombie or zombies 1stshow up no one realizes that's what's up…they always seem to approach the infected and asking if they're ok or something along this line. With the vast majority of zombie media you would think in movies the characters would realize that's what is going on, but we are forced to watch the oh so familiar encounter which turns into a bite, a chase or a feeding frenzy. This is so stupid it's just annoying like in slasher films when a person says "hello" when they think they're not alone or something….are they expecting the burglars or killers to say hi or something, SO ANNOYING but it happens all the time. With all the zombie movies you would think movie makers would just quit doing this but I doubt it will come to an end.
It's understandable not taking time and aiming if ur being chased by zombies or something but u see ppl emptying clips into single zombies when 1 shot to the dome would suffice. This kills me, and pretty often the person shooting, while watching the Walking Dead, which is an amazing show u should be watching, u usually only see them pulling of headshots even during be scuffles or swarms. This is something I wish would be seen more often but I'm pretty sure bullet wasting is something we will always have tolerate. Just watch how many ppl just randomly shoot at zombies surrounding survivors…so annoying……….so very annoying.
Anything else u can think of? Let me kno what u think and if I missed anything.

Not knocking the new GM because all his moves have been golden. But let's face it, he needs to move now instead of waiting till the July trading deadline. The bullpen is a mess and the Reds need to make a move to acquire two relievers.
So who can the Reds trade that can shore up this area? How about Adam Dunn? Yeah, yeah I can hear it now....here we go again. But let's be honest, Dunn is the most marketable commodity that can bring the most in return. If Dunn was dealt, you could shift Griffey to LF and insert Denorifia in CF. If Griffey isn't receptive to this idea till after the season, then you play Denorfia in LF knowing that the outfield defense is upgraded.
So who would be interested in Dunn and can shore up the Reds bullpen?

VI. Europe
Regional Overview
There is a clear pattern in opioid consumption in Europe: Western European countries all consume at least 10 times as many opioids as is necessary to treat their terminal cancer and HIV/AIDS patients; Eastern European countries consume less but generally several times more than is necessary to treat their terminal cancer and HIV/AIDS patients.
A handful of Eastern European and Central Asian countries—Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Russia, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan—consume only enough opioids to treat less than 30 percent of their terminal cancer and HIV/AIDS patients. Two central Asian countries, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan, can treat less than 10 percent of these patients. As a result, at least 480,000 terminal cancer and HIV/AIDS patients die in Europe each year without access to adequate pain treatment.
As mentioned, Western European countries all consume at least 10 times as many opioids as is necessary to treat their terminal cancer and HIV/AIDS patients, and some Western European countries—Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland—consume more than thirty times more. These medicines are necessary to treat the many other patients that suffer pain, and this tdemonstrates that comparing actual opioid consumption to that which is necessary to treat terminal cancer and HIV/AIDS patients only gives an indicator of a country's relative ability to meet its patients' needs for pain relief.
In countries where most people have access to the medicines they need most of the time, consumption is much higher than that which is necessary to treat terminal cancer and HIV/AIDS patients. Countries who can treat only those patients (i.e. those that score around 100 percent in these tables, such as Chile, Costa Rica, Mexico, Syria, Lebanon, and Uzbekistan) still have a very long way to go to ensure all patients in need can access essential pain medicines.
Our survey results indicate that the marked contrast between opioid consumption in Eastern and Western Europe is not solely attributable to differences in economic development or medical infrastructure. The Eastern European countries surveyed have fewer policies to support pain treatment and palliative care, fewer opportunities for education in pain management and palliative care, more restrictive regulation on prescribing, and poorer accessibility of morphine across a range of healthcare settings.
Governments in four of the nine countries surveyed in Europe provide strong policy support for palliative care: France, Poland, Turkey, and the United Kingdom all have national palliative care policies and cancer control policies that include palliative care. The first three also have national HIV policies that reference palliative care. There has been recent progress in Georgia, where a national palliative care policy and a cancer policy that includes a palliative care development plan have been submitted to parliament for adoption, but the HIV policy makes no reference to palliative care. Other countries surveyed provide less policy support. Germany does not have a national palliative care policy nor a national cancer or HIV control policy or an essential medicines list. Romania, Russia, and Ukraine do not have national palliative care policies but do provide for palliative care in national cancer control plans.
Ukraine stands out as the only country surveyed in Europe where oral morphine is not a registered medicine. Ukraine and Georgia are the only countries surveyed that have essential medicines lists but have not included oral morphine.
Table 18: Pain Treatment and Palliative Care Policies in Europe
The European countries surveyed have the most extensive availability of training in pain management of any region. In France, Poland, and the United Kingdom, training in palliative care is compulsory for all undergraduate medical students. In 2009 Germany introduced legislation that will make training in palliative care compulsory for all undergraduate medical students by 2014. In all other countries surveyed, with the exception of Russia, palliative care instruction was available in at least some undergraduate medical programs. In Russia such instruction is available only in a few such programs. Survey respondents from all countries said that training in palliative care is available in post-graduate medical education.
Table 19: Availability of Education in Pain Management in Europe
Drug Availability
Supply and Distribution
Our survey findings show a large gap between availability of morphine in Western and Eastern Europe. Availability was best in France, Germany, and the United Kingdom, with oral and injectable morphine available in most or all hospitals and pharmacies. In Poland and Turkey, the medications are available in most or all hospitals but only in some pharmacies. Survey respondents in Romania and Russia said injectable morphine was available in most hospitals but oral morphine only in some hospitals and pharmacies. Georgia and Ukraine reported the most problematic situations, with oral morphine altogether unavailable in Ukraine and only available in some tertiary hospitals, pharmacies, and hospices in Georgia. In most countries surveyed, except Germany, Poland, and France, survey respondents reported that it is harder to access morphine outside of major cities.
Table 20: Accessibility of Morphine in Different Healthcare Settings in Europe
Drug Regulations
Significant differences between regulations in Western and Eastern Europe are apparent from the survey, with Georgia, Russia, and Ukraine imposing both greater numbers of and more severe restrictive prescription requirements than other countries surveyed. Four of five European Union countries require special prescription forms but do not impose other problematic regulatory restrictions.
Turkey requires special prescription forms, as well as signatures from multiple doctors for long-term opioid prescriptions, and imposes a 200 mg daily dose limit for morphine, which is likely to be insufficient for significant numbers of patients. Georgia, Russia, and Ukraine require special prescription forms but doctors must also get special licenses to be allowed to prescribe morphine, and these counties impose low limits on the number of days a prescription can cover. Russia and Ukraine also require that multiple doctors sign prescriptions and impose limits on daily doses, with Ukraine's limits particularly low, lower than the average daily dose for a patient with terminal cancer of HIV/AIDS.[109] Georgia and Ukraine also limit the right of prescription of opioids to doctors in certain specialties, such as oncology. In all surveyed countries except Romania and France, survey respondents reported that fear of legal sanction deters prescribing of opioids.
Table 21: Restrictive Regulation of Morphine Prescribing in Europe
In most of the European countries surveyed, healthcare workers mentioned that the cost of morphine is fully or partially-subsidized by the government, but in several countries only cancer patients qualify for subsidies or subsidies are more generous for cancer patients.
Best Practice and Reform Efforts: Romania
Romania has taken significant steps in the last few years to revise laws and regulations in order to improve access and availability of pain treatment and palliative care in the country. New legislation from November 2006 and new regulations from May 2006 corrected imbalanced laws and regulations that had severely limited doctors' authority to prescribe opioids in Romania. The new laws and regulations establish that it is the sole responsibility of the doctor to determine the appropriate opioid dose and allow doctors to prescribe opioids to patients in severe pain regardless of the underlying disease. Prior to the reforms, doctors could only prescribe opioids to patients suffering from a limited class of diseases, such as cancer in its advanced stages. Progress has also been made in ensuring the availability of a variety of opioid formulations in Romania, many of which are produced domestically.
The new regulations also provide for the improvement of Romanian health workers' education in palliative care.[110] The new regulations led Casa Sperantei, the first independent hospice in Romania, in Brasov, to offer courses in palliative care to health professionals, with the assistance of a grant from the Open Society Institute (OSI). Over 4,000 doctors have since completed this Ministry of Health-approved course. Although the Romanian Ministry of Health had identified palliative care as a "medical sub-specialty" in 2000, the medical profession had not received adequate training, and fear of prescribing opioids on the part of health professionals remains widespread. Increased and improved education in palliative care is a step towards addressing these barriers.
Romania's progress demonstrates what can be achieved through the combined efforts of local professionals, international experts, and national authorities.[111] Reform efforts in Romania began with Romania's participation in a 2002 workshop convened by OSI and WHO. Following an initial assessment and action plan for improving palliative care in Romania, Romania was selected as a pilot country by OSI and the Pain and Policy Studies Group (PPSG). In 2002, the Romanian Ministry of Health appointed a commission of specialists to provide reform recommendations. Working in collaboration with PPSG, the palliative care commission used WHO guidelines to present the Ministry of Health with a number of recommendations for the reform, many of which were incorporated into the country's revised laws and regulations.
Despite the impressive progress that has been made, substantial challenges remain in providing palliative care in Romania. Many hospitals continue not to stock morphine because it "is not included in the drug list for emergencies in acute hospitals." This leads to reliance on pethidine, a weaker opioid that is not appropriate for treatment of chronic pain. Accessibility issues persist as the number of pharmacies stocking morphine, particularly in rural areas, remains inadequate. Many doctors in Romania are still hesitant to prescribe opioids, indicating that further education efforts are needed.[112]

Now former World Boxing Federation World Super Flyweight Champion Juan Jose Goofy Montes lost his title at the scales when he failed to make weight before his title defense against fellow countryman Victor El Nene Zaleta on Saturday night at the Coliseo Olimpico de la UG in Guadalajara, Mexico..
Montes weighed in at 118,1 Lbs. (53,6 Kg.), more than three pounds over the Super Flyweight limit of 115, and after two hours of attempting to shed the extra weight he decided it was not to be, automatically declaring the title vacant. Zaleta, however, who weighed in at 113,5 Lbs. could still win the vacant title if he were to defeat Montes.
And Zaleta did come very close. In fact, if he had not been deducted a point by referee Jesus Salcedo for a low blow, he would now have been the new world champion, as the judges handed in scores of 115-112, 114-114 and 112-115, resulting in a draw and the title remaining vacant.
Montes, who won the WBF title this past February in a war with Oscar Ibarra, started the fight strongest, and seemed to be taking control with volume punching a nice movement, but as the fight progressed Zaleta had more and more success and many rounds were close and difficult to score one way or the other.
The result moves the records of Montes and Zaleta to 22-2-1 (14) and 20-2-1 (10) respectively, and while both proved that they are world class fighters, unfortunately none of them are world champions today.
Montes vs. Zaleta headlined a Televisa televised card promoted by Hector Garcia´s HG Boxing, and labeled Pegada Explosiva IV. Also on the show, WBF Womens Flyweight World Champion Irma Sanchez won a ten round decision in a non-title fight over former World Champion Ibeth Zamora Silva to improve to 23-5-1 (7).

"As a coach and a staff, we don't look at stetches or blocks too much other than the fact that we realize we've got a home schedule that's going to favor us a little bit," he said. "That's a ways away. Our focus is our game tonight. And that's what our message is.
"We've been away quite a bit. We've played a lot of hockey. But they had yesterday off. Our mandate is to play with lots of energy and prepare ourselves for a real tough hockey game tonight and to not think about anything other than tonight's game."
-- Following up on what Ducks GM Bob Murray said Thursday, Carlyle confirmed that center Kyle Chipchura (concussion) and defenseman Andy Sutton (broken thumb) are about to become available in the coming days. Sutton, in particular, has been itching to get into the lineup since he hurt himself in the season opener.
Carlyle intimated that he'd like to get both some more practices with the group before putting them back into the lineup. A heavy schedule has limited the amount of available practice time but that could come next week when the Ducks get four days off after Sunday's home contest against Edmonton.
-- Here's the line combinations and defense pairings for tonight against the Blue Jackets. Jonas Hiller will be back in goal after getting the night off in Minnesota:

» A Sovereign Debt Story ľ Argentina vs NML Capital
Date: 09 June 2014
The early 1980s saw developing countries ľ Argentina being one of them ľ restructuring their economies by way of deregulating their financial sectors and integrating with global markets. As T Sabri ÍncŘ points out, however, the policy shifts taken by Argentina beginning in the mid-1970s rendered the economy highly vulnerable to changes in the international arena, and has taken the country from crisis to crisis, up to the present legal pressure the country faces from US holders of old Argentine debt.

Balanced voice across all strings.
Gauges 013, .017, .025, .032, .042, .053.
Elixir Nanoweb HD Light Strings have a bolder high end and fuller low end with a balanced voice across all the strings. This was achieved by blending the plain steel strings of a medium gauge set with the wound strings of a light gauge set, bridged by a custom .025 third string. The increased tension of the treble strings improves their articulation. The interaction of the tension profile with the soundboard also adds to the harmonic content of the bass strings. The result is a new phosphor bronze tone that offers a balanced voice across all the strings and a light, comfortable hand feel.
Also available in Phosphor Bronze (see SKU#J04533).

Comments about Elixir Nanoweb HD Light 80/20 Acoustic Guitar Strings:
I saw the reviews about the HD Lights not being ground-breaking technology; however, the re-arrangement of some medium and light strings is just perfect for my uses. I play at church, normally finger-picking and an occasional flat pick. I put the strings on my Taylor 414 and 615. I've used Elixir for a few years. I will always use HD lights from now on.

These are new Strings that Taylor Guitars worked with Elixer to design. I have used the traditional Nano-web Light strings for years and these new HD strings are even better!

PHOENIX — It was an uncomfortable afternoon for the Lakers. And after all of Jordan Farmar's snipes at Coach Phil Jackson for being pulled from the game, and the Lakers' third two-game losing streak of the season was in the books, Jackson ultimately shrugged.
"These guys are all right," he said of his players. "They know what they have to do. We just have to get back in order."
There is no real reason for panic, Lakers fans.
The Lakers still have the best record in the NBA, and they're still on pace for a 66-victory season.
They just ran up against the toughest two-game combo of the Lakers' post-All-Star schedule. Yes, this was even harder than the three consecutive road games in four days coming up March 9-12 in Portland, Houston and Dallas — games Pau Gasol said afterward the Lakers will be better prepared for after these disappointments.
"When you want to be the top team in the league and have the aspirations we have, our mindset is supposed to be a lot better than the last two games we played on the road," Gasol said.
Gasol thinks the Lakers would have won Sunday had they been more assertive in the first half, saying: "We let them get confident in the first half and believe they could win the game."
And he's right. But it's understandable the Lakers had a letdown upon seeing Steve Nash wasn't playing. And it's understandable that the Suns ultimately got this game considering how much more they wanted it.
Denver was fired up Friday night to break a nine-game losing streak to the Lakers, but Phoenix was wired for this game, too. The Suns were motivated to avoid a four-game season-series sweep at the hands of the Lakers, and Phoenix was embarrassed by its 26-point loss Thursday night at Staples Center on TNT and glad to be on ABC on Sunday.
"We have been on ABC a lot, and we haven't played very well on ABC," Suns interim coach Alvin Gentry said. "For us to be able to play on national TV and play well, I think it was great."
Moments before he spoke those words, Gentry could be seen with Suns owner Robert Sarver's arms around him in joyous thanks ⦠before Gentry felt compelled to explain to Sarver that he knew he overused his best players to get this one victory.
"They can rest on the plane," Gentry told Sarver.
Gentry played all five starters at least 35 minutes, something Jackson would have loved to do with Lamar Odom given that the Lakers now move into a light week with two easy home games against Memphis and Minnesota.
But Odom fouled out in 23 minutes and was a victim of the sort of tilted refereeing that can be produced by a home team that really wants to win. One game after Denver got 36 foul shots, the Suns got 42 to the Lakers' 20.
Odom asked Jackson after the game to watch video replay of Odom's sixth foul, and Jackson said of Courtney Kirkland's ruling there: "Really bad call." But it didn't help that the Lakers, especially the lead dogs overburdened since the injury loss of Andrew Bynum, didn't have the legs to put themselves in better position against such determination from Denver and Phoenix.

"Besides calling the members of the Tea Party Movement 'uneducated' and 'racist,' he [Schiller] also admitted that NPR did not need taxpayer money. Let's take his advice and pass legislation to defund this biased news organization that is clearly out of touch with the American people," Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., said today.
House Republicans voted last month to cut funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which partially supports NPR and the Public Broadcasting Service. That legislation is unlikely to pass the Senate.
Rep. Doug Lamborn, R-Colo., who led the charge to strip funding from CPB, says the video exposes "serious problems" at NPR.
"I do think it helps the cause for people to see, hey, there's some things that are going on here that are not necessarily something that the majority of Americans happen to agree with," Lamborn told ABC News.
The White House is standing by NPR, saying federal funding for public broadcasting are "worthwhile and important priorities."
"The budget makes clear the president's priorities, and among them are the funding at the level that we stipulate in the budget for National Public Radio and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting," White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said today.
Other supporters point to the fact that Ron Schiller was not in charge of the content that was broadcast on NPR.
"Obviously it doesn't help when somebody does idiotic things. But bear in mind the person who has been subsequently let go had nothing to do with the content of public broadcasting," Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., told ABC News.
Ron Schiller, who was already scheduled to leave NPR in May, instead left Tuesday and apologized for his comments.
"While the meeting I participated in turned out to be a ruse, I made statements during the course of the meeting that are counter to NPR's values and also not reflective of my own beliefs," he said in a statement Tuesday. "I offer my sincere apology to those I offended."
The lunch was set up at the request of the "Muslim Education Action Center," a fictitious group set up by O'Keefe specifically to target NPR. An NPR spokesman said the group was anxious to donate $5 million to NPR, even offering to physically deliver the check, but the news organization turned out that offer.
NPR asked the group to provide a list of donors, a list of their members of the board, organizations to which they have donated to and tax forms establishing that they were a non-profit, but none of that information was provided.
The lunch was still set up and NPR said it's not an unusual move because it was designed to be an exploratory meeting to find out more about the organization.
"While it might have been ideal to have every i dotted and t crossed before this meeting, often times in the process of relationship building, which can take many years in the foundation world, you might have an initial lunch with someone to find out more about their interests," an NPR spokesperson said.
Ron Schiller was accompanied at the recorded lunch by Betsy Liley, NPR senior director of institutional giving, who is on administrative leave. The two members who met with Schiller and Liley established a purported connection with the Muslim Brotherhood early on in the lunch.
Schiller is seen in the video blasting Tea Party groups and lamenting the demise of intellectualism, particularly in the GOP.

UNA seeks Comelec probe of gift check distribution
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO—The United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) said it had asked the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to investigate the use of gift certificates by a group closely associated with the ruling Liberal Party (LP) to allegedly woo votes for LP candidates.
But while Navotas Representative Toby Tiangco, UNA secretary general, described the practice as "massive and nationwide," he admitted that UNA had documented only one case of gift certificate distribution by the group Kaya Natin!
The gift certificates were from a popular book and drug store and worth P500 and P1,000. Some were dated December last year but distributed at the height of the campaign period, according to UNA.
"This is a serious issue of vote-buying because it was timed during the local campaign, and it is clear money was involved," Tiangco said in a statement. He cited one case in Quezon City.
Reached for comment, Kaya Natin! convenor Harvey Keh said what Tiangco was "perhaps referring to is the Estudyante program that Kaya Natin!, together with Quezon City Rep. Jorge Banal and the Quezon City [government], has implemented to provide free school supplies and educational materials to public high school students from the third district of Quezon City."
The program, he said, has been going on for three years.
Keh described Tiangco's allegation as "false and malicious." Kaya Natin!, he said, "espouses effective, ethical and empowering leadership."
The movement was founded by a group of politicians, among them the late Interior Secretary Jesse Robredo, former Pampanga Gov. Eddie Panlilio and former Isabela Gov. Grace Padaca, now an election commissioner.
On its website, Kaya Natin! urged Tiangco to resign as UNA campaign manager if he could not produce proof that the gift certificates also bore the names of four Team PNoy candidates. The four are Ramon Magsaysay Jr., Risa Hontiveros, Bam Aquino and Sen. Aquilino "Koko" Pimentel III.
"The Liberal Party and any member of the Team PNoy slate have never been involved in this project at all nor have we had any meetings with the LP or Team PNoy's leaders to discuss this said project," Kaya Natin! said.
Gift certificates, instead of cash, were given to ensure the funds would be used for school supplies, according to Kaya Natin! These were distributed on March 7. Kaya Natin! said it endorsed the four candidates on March 20.
"Should he (Tiangco) fail to present concrete evidence to back his accusation, we also challenge him to hold himself accountable for these malicious lies that he is spreading by immediately and irrevocably resigning from his post as campaign manager of UNA, since apparently it escapes him that he should focus more on actually campaigning for their candidates' platforms and competencies rather than focusing his energies on black propaganda," said Kaya Natin!
In Quezon City, high school students were given the gift certificates through their parents. The vouchers were given at Camp General Emilio Aguinaldo High School, Don Quintin Paredes High School, Balara High School, Jose P. Laurel High School, Juan Sumulong High School and Quirino High School. Tonette Orejas, Inquirer Central Luzon

A former probation officer from Aiken County was indicted for murder in the shooting death of her boyfriend in their North Augusta home last year.
Robin Renee Herndon, of Sudlow Lake Road in North Augusta, was originally charged with voluntary manslaughter, but an Aiken County grand jury indicted her on the higher charge of murder. Herndon was served with the increased charge during a hearing on Tuesday.
Based on the information police had when they arrested her, they charged her with voluntary manslaughter, said Assistant Solicitor Glenn Justis of the First Circuit Solicitors Office. Based on the information we have at this point, our office felt the more appropriate charge at this point would be murder.
Justis said its not uncommon for someone to be indicted on a charge greater than the one they were originally arrested for.
What happened in this situation is, law enforcement continued their investigation, he said. They didnt just stop as soon as they had enough to arrest her. They got more and more information that pointed more toward murder than manslaughter.
Herndon is accused in the shooting death of 31-year-old Christopher Rowley. Sheriffs deputies were called to Herndons home at 721 Sudlow Lake Road on Nov. 6, where they found Rowley with a gunshot wound to the neck. He was taken to Georgia Regents Medical Center, where he later died.
Investigators have said Herndon and Rowley were involved in a domestic argument before the shooting.
Herndon was an officer with the S.C. Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Service at the time of the shooting but has since been terminated from the department. She is also a former agent with the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division.
The case is being handled by the First Circuit Solicitors Office because Herndon was so well known in the Second Circuit solicitor and public defender offices.

H. Ray Sigler recently responded to a letter by Frankie Seaberry, criticizing her for her views as to how the Republican Party is doing a less than good job. Sigler went on the state that the Republicans are not in control, yet he fails to note the records that they have set in doing what Seaberry pointed to.
First, the Republicans broke all records in using the filibuster to block bills. They also simply refuse to allow matters to even be voted on, claiming that they didn't have a voice in the matter, with no specificity as to what. But voting would have been appropriate. The least productive Congress in recent history at a time when things should be done -- legislating, that is.
Then we have the hearings -- those infamous Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., moments -- not one of which has turned up a single solitary thing. Not enough? Let's throw in Ted Cruz and his totally inept and destructive government shutdown.
Now we have the latest political toy to play with: the release of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl. The verdict isn't in yet, but then playing things the way they are is far worse than the issue.
Sigler stated: "I will go out on a limb and predict that in 2016 the conservative branch of the Republican Party and the Tea Party will put a big hurt on all three branches of elected government." Really? As in even more so than what we have already seen? OMG.
Hans "John" Baumann
