HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Daniel Farey-Jones, campaignlive.co.uk, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 09:51AM
The agency was one of five shortlisted by HSBC, along with BBDO, Grey, Saatchi & Saatchi and the incumbent, JWT.
Sources close to HSBC claimed the agency was asked to drop out because of recent changes to its management team.
It leaves McCann parent company IPG without a role in the contest, which is now between the two WPP shops, Omnicom and Publicis Groupe.
A McCann spokesperson said: "It was a mutual agreement with HSBC that we decided to pull out of the pitch. We're in a pitch with another global bank."
The spokesperson denied the decision was related to IPG's replacement of McCann Worldgroup chief executive Nick Brien with Harris Diamond last week.
HSBC called the media and creative review in October after eight years with WPP agencies JWT and Mindshare.
The bank is this week reported to be in talks about selling its 15.6% stake in China's second-biggest insurer, Ping An.

DAMASCUS: The Palestine Liberation Organization is in talks with the Syrian government about ending a Palestinian refugee camp siege that has prompted tens of thousands to flee, Palestinian officials said Tuesday.
Pro-Damascus Palestinian groups have laid siege for months to pro-rebel groups inside the Yarmouk camp on the southern outskirts of Damascus, prompting the exodus of at least 135,000 of its 170,000 residents.
"Negotiations are underway for the withdrawal of the armed men from the camp, the opening of the entrance points and the return of services," the PLO's ambassador to Damascus, Anwar Abdel Hadi told AFP.
"If they succeed and the armed men withdraw, the Syrian police will take control of the camp, as it was before the fighting, and the Syrian army will remain on the outskirts," he added.
"We're trying to reach a solution."
The fighting around the camp pits pro-Damascus Palestinian factions, such as Al-Saiqa and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, against groups such as Hamas that support the Syrian rebels.
The pro-Damascus groups have pushed a few hundred meters inside the camp, but the pro-rebel groups, who are backed by Al-Qaeda loyalists, remain holed up inside.
Their position has become increasingly difficult in recent weeks, however, as advances by the Syrian army in Damascus province have threatened to cut their supply lines.
Living conditions for the camp's remaining civilian residents have become dire, as supplies of food and medicine have run out.
The PLO delegation, led by executive committee member Zakaria al-Agha, arrived from the West Bank town of Ramallah Sunday to discuss a Palestinian proposal for ending the siege.
A member of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a PLO faction that is not party to the fighting, said the proposal called for the return of the camp's residents.
"It stipulates the withdrawal of the armed men, the return of the camp's residents to their homes and the provision of support for their return to normal life," said DFLP member Rashid Kweidar, who is close to the negotiations.
The PLO ambassador said an aid convoy was "outside the camp right now," waiting to enter in order to deliver relief supplies.
Abu Bassel Fuad, a member of the pro-Damascus Palestine Liberation Front, told AFP the priority was "the entry of food, medicines and vaccines for children."
He said the aim was to open "humanitarian corridors to allow the transport of the wounded and the safe movement of residents."
Earlier Tuesday the Syrian state news agency and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an activist network, said a truce was brokered in Yarmouk neighborhood, but other activists could not immediately confirm the deal, and there were still reports of fighting.

Louisiana Classics Up Next for Illini
March 7, 2014
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -A week after tying for fourth at the USF Invitational, the sixth-ranked Fighting Illini visit Lafayette, La., for the 29th annual Louisiana Classics, hosted by Louisiana-Lafayette at Oakbourne Country Club on Monday and Tuesday, March 10-11. Illinois won the event by eight strokes over LSU last season, as all five Illini playing as part of the team finished in the top 26. The 54-hole event starts with an 8 a.m. shotgun start to a 36-hole day on Monday, then an 8 a.m. start off holes 1 and 10 for Tuesday's final round.
Live scoring will be available here, with free live streaming available on RaginCajuns.com. The Classics will provide fans the ability to watch holes No. 9 and 18 throughout the tournament or follow a featured group from the top three teams on Tuesday, as all 18 holes of their final round will be streamed live.
While five of the seven Illinois players who played in the Louisiana Classics last year return again this season, head coach Mike Small is looking for his team to once again find that cohesiveness that results in team titles.
"We have to be strong from top to bottom," Small said. "We can't just coast through a tournament and not have our best game and expect to win. We can be competitive in that situation but we're going to win. To win, we need a total team effort. The talent level is there, we just need to be who we are. If we can be who we are, we're a pretty strong team."
Junior Brian Campbell, who was named Big Ten Co-Golfer of the Week on Wednesday, has done that thus far, posting four top-10 finishes in five stroke-play events and missing his second medalist honors by one stroke last week at USF. He leads the team with a 69.67 stroke average.
"Brian Campbell is playing some fearless golf, which I love," Small said. "He doesn't get worried about the surroundings, the competition or his golf swing. He just goes and competes. And that's the mentality you want in all your players. When a guy plays as well as Campbell did last week, you need to ante up behind him."
Illinois has the capability of doing that, as multiple players have shown already this season. Sophomore Thomas Detry has three top-10 finishes, including a win at the Wolf Run Intercollegiate in September, this season, while sophomore Charlie Danielson, sophomore David Kim and senior Jonathan Hauter each have two top-10s on their résumés. But Detry, Kim and Hauter each had one round of 75 or above at USF, which kept the Illini from challenging for the title.
The makeup of the Illinois squad has changed from the past few years, from a longer-hitting group to more of a finesse team, Small said. That means each player on this Illini team has to focus on utilizing his own unique skill set to attack golf courses.
"We've had longer-hitting teams the last few years than we do this year," Small said. "We've had some bombers: some big, strong guys who can overpower the longer golf courses. This year, we're more of a finesse-type team where we have some guys who can hit it, but from top to bottom we don't have that length or that wow factor. So we need to play efficient, disciplined golf.
"These guys have the ability to shoot five-, six-, seven-under, but they just can't overpower some of these longer golf courses. So they have to play golf the right way. They have to play fearless golf. They have to play confident, efficient golf where you're playing to your strengths and you aren't creating mistakes or having unforced errors. We have to keep the hole in front of us, play to the strong side and control our ball flight."
Illinois will utilize the same lineup at the Louisiana Classics as it did at the USF Invitational last week: Campbell, Detry, Danielson, Kim and Hauter, with Alex Burge playing as an individual.

USF STUDY ON OFFSHORING-Andrew Stelzer
The center for globalization research at USF has just completed a study of the effects of offshore outsourcing of jobs on the Tampa bay area. They presented the findings of their study this morning; WMNFs Andrew Stelzer was there and filed this report.
ACT ââ¬Åin Tampa bay in 2002, our companies imported a whopping 646 million from foreign countries,
Guy Hagan works with innovation insight; he was commissioned by the University of South Florida to study the relocation of jobs from Tampa bay to foreign countries.
ACT however, the Tampa bay area exported over 1.12 billion, so you take one minus the other and find that Tampa bay is a net exporter, or another way, we have outsourced over 600 million, but foreign companies have outsourcedââ¬Â¦so off shoring goes two ways.ââ¬?
The fact that Tampa Bay, and the United States as a whole, brings in more jobs than it is shipping out, was one of the major findings, which might contradict the widespread impressions about outsourcing. Nationwide, 182,000 jobs were lost in the 1st quarter of 2004, but only 2.5 percent of them were due to off-shoring. The gap in the publicââ¬â¢s perception was matched by the gap between reality, and the impression that local companies have.
ACT ââ¬Åwe found that one company in 20 looked into, it but 4 times as many thought their competitors were, but these companies were telling us that they had to compete. So again the perception in greater than realities.ââ¬?
The study found that the type of jobs which most often go overseas are commodity jobs, which mainly consist of repetitive tasksââ¬âjobs which can be easily replicated. Jobs which have resisted offshoring are ones that are require personal contact, those which deal with sensitive information, jobs that require creativity, or those related to small businesses. They predicted that as the shifting of jobs continues, to stay employable, people will have to develop language and cultural sensitivity skills, and that the most valued workers will be those who are prepared to constantly learn, embrace new careers, and have a drive to educate themselves. Although the typical example cited was that of Capitol One, which eliminated 1,100 jobs in July as part of an effort to outsource much of its customer relations work, the study also found that startup businesses are going overseas, never even establishing a workforce within the United States.
ACT ââ¬Åââ¬Â¦ the relevance is there are no layoffs because there are no US hirings, so were not sure how common this will be but we have to pay attention to.ââ¬?
Florida Congressman Jim Davis attended the presentation was asked How the US government will protect companies research and development costs by enforcing proprietary laws.
ACT-Davis ââ¬Åin a lot of the trade agreements this is paramount, we are the chief beneficiaries, particularly in china this about writing rules of engagement to protect American property.ââ¬?
Davis also sad the rising cost of healthcare in the US has been a contributing factor which has caused companies to hire workers in other countries. One woman asked Guy Hagan why the issue of outsourcing has gained so much attention lately, especially during the presidential campaign season.
ACT ââ¬Ëoff shoring is easier to point at than capitalism or technological change..its cause of mass layoffs andââ¬Â¦US thought of itself a leader in,,manufacturing, white collar services, and now we have to reinvent ourslevesââ¬? WMNF asked Guy Hagan about his statement that outsourcing is easier to discuss than capitalism.
ACT ââ¬ÅI certainly dont have an answer for how far or nature of economic growth can be maintained..capitalism is driving the oursourcing..everytime you change credit cards you
One of the 40 people who attended he presentation suggested that the US will need to cater to the needs of corporations if they hope to keep them in the US.
ACT ââ¬Åin the past we havenââ¬â¢t had a global competitive environment, we could dictate to businesses on behalf of labor and..being profitable, addressing globalization will force us to look back and see what kind of environment, can we overcome the problems we over see off off shoring.ââ¬? One member of the audience asked several questions about the role of labor unions. WMNF spoke to Mark Amen, the director of the Globalization Research Center about his concerns.
ACT ââ¬Åhow could you leave them out of discussion on labor, and I it the same as the studyââ¬âwhen they discussed with the corporate, never brought up by corporate and ..what does that tell us about where does the solution lies. In this state, the notion of right to work, we need to get that back on the table, and really I think the interesting thing is can we work with unions which are based on national economies to create global labor unions who in response to transnational corporationsââ¬Â¦.and the companies have incentives to go globalââ¬âshould we do the same for unions..what are the odds are ..on a scale of 1 to 10ââ¬â1. unless there is some movement, there are signsââ¬Â¦and I am concerned that unions in this country are not thinking so thereââ¬â¢s some reason to think about where its resources lie. How can unions make the case..i donââ¬â¢t think thats where to send the message..what unions have to do is mobilize, overcome the boundaries, and once the have regional or global labor unions, until then a company is going to hire labor wherever is wants..they wont have to deal with unions..once that happens, for companies ..and ââ¬Â¦if unions start unionizing across countries, the whole question of turning to labor across the world is standardize conditions, once those standards are established companies will find it less attractive..its especially ironic was these demonstrations..yeah all the protest movements diluted because those protest movements brought forth such a wide but they never established nuts and bolts relationships. What we need next is a concrete agreement to become global organizations.
Towards the end of the discussion, Susan Conti, one of the researchers who conducted the study, mentioned that education was a missing component in business and government proposed solutions to off-shoring. WMNF asked her after the presentation h w she
ACT ââ¬Åpeople talk about how we arenââ¬â¢t competitive, butââ¬Â¦thereââ¬â¢s the perception that people arenââ¬â¢t as skilled overseas, so what people want to do is to go back to basics, not just the colleges, what I see happening in the us IS SOMHWO THERE WAS AHOFT WHERE PEOPELK HAD TO BE SOMETHING, AND THAT SHIFTED THE EDUCATION AS WELL, WE TEST TO THE FCAT, and so I think there is something to be said for some basic elementary educationââ¬Â¦what are the odds???ââ¬âI donââ¬â¢t know because people donââ¬â¢t so things until they are in pain and hen they do is they take one step.ââ¬?

Button Hairpins
Activity DesignerStephanie Sims
167 Projects
These darling hairpins couldn't be simpler to make! Do you like ducks? Dragonflies? Hearts? Anything is possible!
What You'll Need
- buttons (shank and holed)
- bobby pins
- embroidery needle and thread (optional)
- pretty paper (optional)
- hole punch (optional)
How We Did It
If you're making hairpins for a friend or for a party activity, you may want small cards of pretty paper to hold them.
Most of the pretties that Maddie made were with the shank buttons -- she only needed to slide them on!
We also have some darling flower and heart buttons, so I showed her (with a heavy, dull embroidery needle) how simple it was to tie on the string, then come up through one hole and down the other (over one part of the bobby pin).

Use these goggles weekly in the pool.Don't leak.Nice and bright for a morning swim.Can leave marks on face but worth the rings!
Hermitage, TN
so glad the guy in the lane next to me let me try his first. i ordered them the next day. so comfortable, very clear, and good seal. only minor complaint is that i get small movement in lens if i go for maximum push off wall, so not good for interval pool sprints. Love these goggles: comfortable as soft barracudas but more durable.
Size: Feels too big
Very nice!
Bought for open water races, first use was Jack King Memorial Swim in Virginia Beach, VA. Great fit, Great vision..even for swimming in the ocean...lens did not fog up...again first use so will have to see how that goes as I use this pair in other races coming up this summer.

Great product
Excellent fit and vision.

Great all around for open-water....not so good diving off the starting blocks.
Size: Feels true to size
Good but not perfect
Adjusting the straps is easy and cool with a little button at the corner of the eye piece. The eye area is ample, unlike other choices. Unfortunately, they still fog after about 20 minutes in the pool.

Sometimes the best way to create change in your leaders is to bring in the expertise from the industry leaders in your local business environment. The experience and professionalism these leaders can share in producing extraordinary results in business can bring about profound shifts in understanding and problem solving. Academic institutions often fail to provide the real-world experience necessary in a constantly changing economic climate and graduates can sometimes find themselves ill-prepared to face the reality of business in Perth.
Today's fast paced and complex business environment requires leaders to find new and innovative ways to develop their leadership and strategic management capabilities. Our Advanced Management Program is aimed at developing senior and middle level managers who want to find new ways of leading for enhanced effectiveness in today's dynamic business context.
To assist in creating the most dynamic learning experience we have recruited the expertise of some of Perth's most respected business leaders. The following brief summary profiles serve as a short introduction to each member of the presentation team for 2012.

Will talk of big pensions bring reform?
Some say focus on the outliers is the wrong approach
He added: "California really hasn't engaged in pension reform. It's only addressed pensions with respect to employees effectively still to be hired."
Leaders in the Democratic-controlled Legislature told U-T Watchdog they were unlikely to take up any of the more extensive cost-cutting proposals originally pitched by Gov. Jerry Brown and later supported by GOP legislators. That includes providing new state and local workers hybrid retirement plans that combine a guaranteed pension with a less predictable 401(k)-style investment plan.
Former San Diego City Councilman Carl DeMaio, the architect of local voter-approved Proposition B pension measure, believes there are things that can be done to tamp down large payouts to existing employees across the state, including taking various performance and longevity-based bonuses out of the equation and using only the base pay to calculate pensions. The Alameda County administrator's base pay is $301,000.
DeMaio noted that top administrators in line for the payouts are often the most savvy about the details of favorable compensation packages that they bring before elected officials.
"This is yet another wake-up call," DeMaio said. "How many of these do we need to read about?"

These are a great pair of boots. I am also pleased that the calf part is not too wide and sticks out so much like other boots. They are true to size. I am 4'11" and I bought a size 6 and they fit perfectly. I was worried they would hit the back of my knee, but they fit right there perfectly. I am very happy with my purchase.
Pros:Perfect calf size & isn't so wide where it sticks out. Perfect Size and height

Gambian international, Ali Sowe targets to make a name in the Serie A after a sensational move to Chievo Verona from local club Gamtel. The forward was tapped by Chievo during a Gambian U-19 match last summer before joining the Italian side seven months later on an undisclosed deal subject to FIFA clearance. After troubles of acclimatizing with the snow-crazed European weather, the young goal asset is looking to stamp his way out in the limelight in the elite league, after having made his official club debut two weeks ago.
"I want to make a name for myself in the Serie A [in Italy]. I thank God for giving me this opportunity and I felt really great playing my first game last week," the ex- Gamtel attacker, whose rambunctious transfer stole the headlines, told Foroyaa Sport from his base in Chievolast weekend. The prospect of plying his trade in one of Europe's top four highly favoured leagues did not itch the young player's mind a month prior to the departure of Gambia's U-19 to the 8-team youth championship in Umbria, Italy. But when an offer from the 'flying donkeys' was slapped on Gamtel's desk, like many an excited teenager, it was dream come true for Ali Sowe and it took weeks for a deal to be reached, amid protracted talks over a fee agreement.
"I was excited when I first heard an offer has been placed to have me been signed and join the Italian Serie A. I was told I will be playing in the reserve team," said Sowe, who netted seven times in the 2011 season for the telecommunication side, recalling his first impression when news of a prospective deal broke out. His eight minute debut, climbing off the bench, fetes Sowe as the first Gambian to appear in the Italian top flight - a country whose vast array of football talents make the numbers in semi- professional leagues in the Scandinavia hemisphere. "I felt good being the first Gambian to play in the Serie A but there are other [Gambian players] still capable of making similar progress," said the soft-spoken Ali. Sowe made his second outing to make a fifteen minute show on Sunday for the Cake-manufacturing sponsored club before a fifteen thousand turnout of supporters at the Stadio Atleti Azzuri D' Italia against host Atlanta -the league final game. On his aims for a permanent place in Chievo Verona's squad come next season, he said "Yeah, as a player I am always confident of myself and I'm just counting on the chances that I'm having in the field."
Chievo finished the league 12th in the 20-team league -two below their 10th place season before.

Source: Regis 'Regretting' Decision to Leave 'Live'
It's been a mere two months since TV legend Regis Philbin announced he was saying goodbye to 'Live With Regis And Kelly,' and already insiders tell me he's having second thoughts.
"Regis quit without talking it through" with his co-host, a source with close ties to the show tells me. "He only told Kelly 10 minutes before the show went live, and now he's regretting it."
Regis, who makes a healthy salary (various reports peg it somewhere between $10-$20 million a year), was reportedly annoyed with the way he was being treated in contract negotiations with ABC and went on to fire his longtime agent, Jim Griffin, shortly after he made his announcement.
He's realized that soon he'll be left without a steady job, and a friend of the star tells me he's yet to receive those truly "great offers." No doubt they will come as the clock ticks down on his 28-year run on 'Live,' but waiting is the hardest part!
"He should have accepted a pay cut and remained on the show he created," a friend of Regis' tells me. "He's 79, and everyone knows TV is a young person's game. What was he thinking? I'm sure he looked at how the public has welcomed back Kathie Lee [Gifford, his old co-star] on 'Today' and assumed they would do the same for him. But as of now, he hasn't had any great offers."
When he announced on Jan. 18 that he was leaving 'Live,' Regis made it clear he wasn't going to be moving to the old folks home or anything. "I'm not going to retire. I just will be gone," he said.
I was actually at ABC studios in New York just hours after Regis made his announcement, and an executive who spoke on the condition of anonymity told me that producers have been "unofficially testing" out possible replacements for a while, but that they haven't necessarily found Kelly's partner yet. ABC said in January that it will announce Regis' replacement in the coming months.
I say stay, Regis ... or get back in the game show business pronto!

Regis has long been an institution of American daytime television but he's well into his 4th quarter and tends to have lapses of thought and a sharp tongue. At 79, hasn't he made enough money, been applauded by enough people and shared enough stories? Let it go Regis while you're on top and healthy.....go enjoy your wonderful wife and many friends......let us miss you.

I absolutely agree with you. Am I the only one who is sick and tired of this man name-dropping every chance he gets? I can give a rat's behind who he knows. It's not putting a dime in my pockets. All I want is to be entertained and get a good chuckle. Kelly is way funnier, and a natural. I hope she gets a co-host whose chemistry takes the show to another level.

He is just like so many other celebreties if they are not in rehab, trouble with the law, then they are just plain greedy! I mean if the man has made 10 to 20 million dollars a year for the past several years how much does he think he needs? I can't understand why people can't ever be satisfied, when is enough, enough? I will tell you why they are never satisfied it's one of the oldest sayings around MONEY CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS!

Regis is an Icon. And if he exists this television show, I will not be watching. Kelly is a sweet little girl (her voice is irritating).... She can't hold a match to Regis' quick wit......

No - it's not just his job: he IS Live with REGIS and Kelly. The raport between the two is what makes this show. Replacing him with Anderson Cooper or anyone else will never work like this does. It's his schtick to talk in 3rd person and be crotchety. Makes for much humor. They should make whatever consession he wants!

Regis is the perfect example of the American dream....a man with absolutely no talent, but succeeds.

Yes, he IS a legend in his own mind.

No one can replace Regis. I don't watch when he is on vacation because its just not the same. No one can tell a story like he can. I'm going to really miss him.

MACON, Ga. (AP) -- Parents of a slain Mercer University law school graduate want investigators to search farmland in central Georgia in hopes of finding her remains.
The parents of 27-year-old Lauren Giddings are asking a federal judge to allow them to search farmland that belonged to a relative of murder suspect Stephen McDaniel.
The Telegraph reports (http://bit.ly/17i15K7) that the federal wrongful death lawsuit was filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Macon.
McDaniel is charged with the June 2011 slaying and dismemberment of Giddings, who was from Laurel, Md. Her torso was found in a trash bin near her apartment and police have said the rest of her remains have not been found.
McDaniel has pleaded not guilty. His attorney Floyd Buford declined to comment until he's reviewed the lawsuit.

Michael J. Ratliff
A traffic stop led sheriff's deputies to a meth lab in the Clarks Creek area of southern Washington County on Wednesday, resulting in one arrest with more expected.
Deputies stopped Michael J. Ratliff, 34, 111 Springfield Lane, Jonesborough, for having no license plate on his vehicle and learned his license had been suspended, Sheriff Ed Graybeal reported in a news release.
After arresting him, deputies found two baggies of methamphetamine in his wallet, as well as a glass pipe and straw used for drugs in his pocket. In his vehicle, they found items used to make meth.
Deputies went to Ratliff's home and searched it with permission, finding a four one-pot bottles used to make meth, mixing containers, "gassers," ammonium nitrate, coffee filters and other meth precursors, as well as another baggie of finished meth, the sheriff said.
A woman at the residence, along with a dog and a cat inside the home, had to be decontaminated.
Deputies seized three vehicles and a small amount of cash. The sheriff estimated the street value of the meth at $150. Investigators expected to charge three more people.
Graybeal said Ratliff confessed to making meth. He was charged with failure to display registration plate, driving on a suspended license, possession of schedule II drugs for resale, and possession of drug paraphernalia. His bond was set at $12,000 and arraigned Thursday morning in Sessions Court.
The sheriff said once the meth lab investigation is completed, the case would be presented to a Washington County grand jury for prosecution.comments powered by Disqus

Each year, more than 182,000 American women are diagnosed with breast cancer. Mammography is the only screening method proven to reduce deaths from breast cancer. However, mammography is not always accurate. Women screened for breast cancer are often recalled for additional testing when mammogram findings are unclear. In fact, false positives account for 25 percent of U.S. mammography costs. Therefore, any intervention that can decrease mammography recall has important public health implications. Researchers studied 1,704 women between the ages of 45 and 80 who were on hormone replacement therapy and were due for an upcoming mammogram. Before their mammograms, women were randomly assigned no hormone therapy for one month, no hormone therapy for two months, or continued therapy. The women then had mammograms and answered questions about menopause symptoms. Recall rates were 12.3 percent, 9.8 percent, and 11.3 percent, respectively. Menopausal symptoms increased in the groups that stopped therapy.
Approximately 1.3 million women are physically assaulted by an intimate partner each year. Intimate partner violence, or IPV, includes threats or acts of physical or sexual violence made by one partner to another. Despite frequent health care visits, few women disclose their experience with IPV to their doctor. And for many reasons – including lack of time, discomfort with the topic, and lack of knowledge about resources – physicians seldom ask. The result is missed opportunities for intervening and preventing harm. These issues could be addressed through computer-assisted screening. Researchers randomly assigned 300 women in a busy urban clinic to either an intervention group (computerized survey on IPV) or usual care. Women in the intervention group completed a survey on a touch screen before their physician visit. The reports were then attached to the women's medical charts. The women also received a computer-generated recommendation sheet about their reported health risks that included information on appropriate community agencies. Researchers found this method was an effective, time-efficient and patient-acceptable method to screen for and detect women at risk of IPV in a busy family medicine practice. The researchers conclude that routine use of computer screening could save time and discomfort for physicians, and provide better social and health outcomes for patients at risk for IPV. Note: This article is being released early online at www.annals.org and will be available in hard copy on July 21.
The incidence of diabetes among U.S. adults continues to increase. However, evidence shows that dietary and exercise interventions in nondiabetic adults at high risk for the disease can delay onset of type 2 diabetes – especially among those at highest risk. Simple prediction scores could help identify adults at high risk for diabetes. Using data from a prospective cohort study of 12,729 adults between the ages of 45 and 64, researchers developed and tested scoring systems that identify adults with a high 10-year incidence of diabetes. The basic system included age, weight, and waist circumference, hypertension, smoking, and family history of diabetes. The enhanced system also included blood tests. The researchers suggest that the low-cost basic approach could be used to identify asymptomatic adults who may need more thorough examination, including blood tests. The authors conclude that insurers or public health agencies may want to develop population-specific survey instruments that could serve to identify and help those at greatest need.

YIELD: Makes 10 servings
Orange-Scented Pastry Cream
1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the cream to soft peaks.
2. Whisk the Pastry Cream until smooth. Gently fold in the orange zest and whipped cream. Transfer the cream to a pastry bag fitted with a medium, plain tip and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Caramel Butter Sauce
1. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons (30 g/1 oz) of the water.
2. In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, vanilla bean pod and seeds, and remaining 2 cups (470 g/16.5 oz) water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the cornstarch mixture and cook, whisking, for another minute. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the butter, salt, and rum. Keep the sauce warm until serving, or refrigerate it, covered, and rewarm before serving.
Candied Pecans
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Place the pecans in a medium bowl and set aside.
2. In a small saucepan, combine the water and sugar and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring, just until the sugar has dissolved. Pour the syrup over the pecans and toss until combined. Spread the coated pecans on a half-sheet pan and bake for about 8 minutes, tossing once during baking, until browned and fragrant.
Puff Pastry Rounds
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a half-sheet pan with a silicone baking mat.
2. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the puff pastry out to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Using a 3-inch round pastry cutter, cut out 10 rounds from the dough. Arrange the rounds on the prepared sheet pan and top with another silicone baking mat and half-sheet pan; this will allow the rounds to rise evenly. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the rounds are browned and nicely puffed. Remove the top sheet pan and baking mat. Preheat the broiler and dust the rounds liberally with confectioners' sugar. Place the rounds under the broiler until they are caramelized. Assemble the desserts immediately.
While the Puff Pastry Rounds are still hot from the oven, split them in half. Scoop out any undercooked dough from the center of each half and pipe a generous amount of cold Orange-Scented Pastry Cream on the bottom half of the puff. Replace the top of the puff. Place the dessert on a plate and spoon some Caramel Butter Sauce on top of the warm pastry. Garnish with some Candied Pecans.

A related note. In 2001, Michael Tucker had a very weird look on his face in his player photo. One eyebrow was raised and his eye was extra wide-open, like he was a deranged pedophile. Thus, for the remainder of the season, any time we saw Tucker, we would say in a dirty old man voice "hey kid, want some candy"....
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

Praising her co-star Dhanush, Sonam Kapoor says only he has the 'inocence' to play the lead in "Raanjhnaa".
"I think only Dhanush can become 'Raanjhnaa'. He has got the innocence. I think there is nobody who has that spirit that is as clean (as his) over here (Bollywood)," said the 27-year-old in an interview.
"There is a lot of innocence and at the same time there is a lot of love in the way he approaches everything," added the actress who has worked with stars like Ranbir Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, Imran Khan and Shahid Kapoor in the last six years.
Directed by Anand L. Rai, "Raanjhnaa" also features Abhay Deol who had earlier worked with Sonam in "Aisha".
Slated to release June 21, "Raanjhnaa" is a love story of a Hindu boy who falls in love with a Muslim girl.

Step 1: Preparing your heat shrink design
Stretch the image height until it is 4 times taller than it should be (now you see why your stacked 4 high). Delete the everything but the stretched image and print it.
Take your smooth piece of party cup and tape it to the computer paper. Make sure it's taped directly over your reference image. Place the paper back through the printer. Now you should have a stretched printed image on the piece of cup.
Step 2: Heat Shrink
While doing this the plastic started to dance around my work surface. I just opened a pair of scissors and used them as a backstop to keep it in place.
Be mindful of anything that may melt or burn including yourself. Also use a well ventilated area. No visible fumes come about while doing this though it does release an odor. Good ventilation is never a bad idea.
Step 3: Seashell Pendant
For the jump ring fashion a loop out of the same plastic and super glue it to the back of the pendant. Cotton cord makes for a good necklace.
Love the idea of using the cups. Didn't think about being able to retain the color>
Great 'ible!
Not all plastic (cups) are made of the same plastics.
You still suprise me :D five stars!

To Buy or to Lease?
This is me
This might be me
This is not me
I always drive over 15,000 miles a year.
I like to customize my car by tinting windows, adding pinstripes, sound system, etc.
I usually get emotionally attached to my car.
I love to see those payments dwindle to nothing.
I've got to have (real) new car smell.
I like the security of driving a car under warranty.
I usually choose a car that I can't afford.
My current car is more than 4 years old.
I am willing to trade ownership for low, monthly payments.
My company reimburses me for car expenses.
I like to do my own repair work.
I typically drive less than 12,000 miles a year.
You're more likely to buy
When you lease a car, you are typically capped at 15,000 miles a year. Additional mileage can cost you up to 35 cents per mile. And that can really add up.
If you like to personalize a car, this investment can be lost on a leased car.
If you like the idea of ownership, you are less likely to be happy with the lease option.
If you like the feeling of accomplishment that paying off a large purchase brings and should consider that when you lease a car, the payment ends only when you return the car.
If the car you presently own is over 3 years old you are more likely a buyer. While not always true, you can usually drive for less if you're willing to buy and drive for at least 3 years.
If you don't mind doing your own car repairs, you probably don't mind driving a car after the warranty expires.

You're more likely to lease
Lease arrangements usually involve a 15,000 miles-per-year cap and charge for extra miles. If you drive very little, you may be a candidate for a luxury lease.
When you negotiate a 24 or 36-month lease, you can be sure you'll always be driving a new vehicle.
Although you need to maintain and repair your leased vehicle just as you would an owned vehicle, because you typically lease for 2 to 3 years, the car is normally under warranty.
Many people prefer to drive a vehicle that is priced above their means and leasing provides the solution.
If you don't mind not owning the car, you are free to enjoy the benefits of leasing like low monthly payments and a low down payment.
If you own the company, and you use your car for business, check with your tax advisor. You may be able to deduct your auto expenses, including your monthly lease payment. And if the company you work for gives you a monthly car allowance, you may want to lease since you'll be able to drive a nicer car for a lower monthly payment.

Some of you guys are really good at coming up with names, so I thought I would ask for some help on this one. Our mare is due to foal in April, so we have no photos of baby yet, but here are the parents. I am hoping to keep the "dream" theme in there, but am not totally set on that for a registered name, and than a complimentary barn name :)
(Dreamer) The Dam's registered name is:
Dry Sark (yuk, I know), she is by Dynomite and out of Sarks Paula Doc.
(Dez) The Sire's registered name is:
Isa Perfect Dream, he is out of Diala Spooky Dream and by Skips Par Suasion.
I hope these names can be worked with :) I have played with them a little, but would love to hear from you guys.

I read on singlewheel.com some one else built a swt and had to lengthen the tongue to stabilize their trailer at speed. Of course it's a street trailer but still here's what he said:
Getting my trailer to handle involved a fair bit of trial and error. I found that as a bare rolling chassis, it handled quite OK, but I think that was due to the fact that it was so light, the bike just dragged the chassis along regardless of where it wanted to go. When I installed the fibreglass "box" and loaded it with 35kg of ballast, the trailer would "tail wag" at about 100kmh (approx. 60mph). After upgrading to an L rated tyre and exchanging the standard (and very worn) Honda shock absorbers for new Ikon units, the problem was reduced, but not cured. I talked to a few trailer builders and began to wonder if the problem could be the drawbar length. Sure enough, after adding about 10" to the drawbar, the tail wagging problem disappeared. I have now towed it at over 180kmh (a little over 110mph) with a 40kg load and it tracks really well. While I'm not in the habit of travelling at 110mph, I felt that it was important to over-engineer and test at extreme speed if I was to have confidence that it wouldn't do anything unexpected at the most inappropriate time! The only time you really even notice that it's behind the bike now is when doing really slow turns, or quick changes of direction such as a winding mountain road. Even then, as long as you change direction smoothly, it leaves the other guys towing normal trailers for dead...

First found in Angus (Gaelic: Aonghas), part of the Tayside region of northeastern Scotland, and present day Council Area of Angus, formerly known as Forfar or Forfarshire, where Gilbert, son of Gillebride, 1st Earl of Angus, obtained a charter of the lands of Purin, Ogguluin and Kynmethan, in Angus between 1172 and 1177. Gilbert is also on record as a witness of a grant of the church of Monyfode to the Abbey of Arbroath by his brother, Gilchrist, 3rd Earl of Angys between 1201-04. There is also early record of an Alexander de Oggoluin, who had a Charter of the lands of Belauht around 1232. Patrick Oggelville or Eggilvyn (of county Forfar) swore an oath of allegiance to King Edward the 1st of England in 1296.

Some of the first settlers of this family name were:
Ogilvy Settlers in United States in the 17th Century
Ogilvy Settlers in United States in the 18th Century
Ogilvy Settlers in Australia in the 19th Century
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Tout jour
Motto Translation: To the end
A clan is a social group made up of a number of distinct branch-families that actually descended from, or accepted themselves as descendants of, a common ancestor. The word clan means simply children. The idea of the clan as a community is necessarily based around this idea of heredity and is most often ruled according to a patriarchal structure. For instance, the clan chief represented the hereditary "parent" of the entire clan. The most prominent example of this form of society is the Scottish Clan system...More
The Ogilvy Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Ogilvy Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname.

text: Last week, the Michigan athletic department admitted what many had long suspected: student football ticket sales are down, way down, from about 21,000 in 2012 to a projected 13,000-14,000 this fall. The department has blamed cell phones, high-definition TV, and a sweeping national trend – but those don't tell the whole story. How'd Michigan lose so many students so fast? Answer: a lot of hard work.

The recent performance of SHINee's new EP "Sherlock" in Taiwan is proving what the group's members already knew about themselves - Their popularity isn't limited to Korea.
The EP reached the No. 1 spot on Taiwan's G-Music Asia Chart and Five Music K-pop and J-pop Chart over the past week. It also reached the top spot on the Kunang Nan K-pop and J-pop Chart for the week running from April 20 to April 26. And on Sunday, Taiwan's leading radio chart show "Hit FM" picked "Sherlock" as its No. 1 track.
Meanwhile, SHINee is currently touring Japan and will perform from today until Saturday in Nagoya. It already held concerts in Fukuoka on April 25 and in Hokkaido on Sunday.
The tour will continue until July 1 and will eventually encompass a total of 20 concerts in seven cities.
The original tour consisted of 14 performances, but the group's management decided to add six more shows after tickets for the planned concerts sold out almost instantly.

Left of Center- Wheel Alignment Problems
Inevitable vehicle problems, such as wheel alignment problems, are to be expected, but can be avoided with proper vehicle maintenance. Common signs of wheel alignment problems can be caused by environmental conditions or even owner neglect.
Signs of Alignment Problems
Wheel alignment problems can be visually spotted, even by an untrained eye. These visual signs include:
- Uneven Tire Tread Wear
- Tires Tilted In or Leaning Outward (Toe-in or Toe-out)
- Off Centered Steering Wheel
Tire alignment problems can cause the vehicle to pull to either side of the road on a straight-away.
Common Causes of Alignment Problems
Improper wheel alignments can cause a rapid deterioration of your vehicle's most valuable assets, your tires. Other common types of alignment problems stem from:
- Poor Road Conditions (Pot Holes)
- Front End or Rear End Wrecks
Wheel alignment problems can be avoided with regular vehicle maintenance. Routine auto maintenance at your local A&J Automotive is a great way to catch any tire alignment problems in their early stages.
The Importance of Immediate Tire Alignments
Experts agree that wheel alignments should be performed within the first 3,000 miles of a new tire installation, and every 6000 miles afterwards. This ensures your vehicle undergoes:
- Maximum Tire Wear
- Optimum Tire Performance and Balance
Ignoring alignment problems will eventually lead to out-of-balance problems and possible costly undercarriage damage to your vehicle. With two convenient Raleigh NC location the professional ASE Certified technicians at A&J Automotive make it easy to keep your car well maintained at all times. If you suspect your vehicle is having alignment issues don't delay! Call or contact us to schedule your wheel alignment service today!

Six new breeds of dogs, including Mexico's hairless Xoloitzcuintli, the Finnish Lapphund and the Norwegian Lundehund, will be among the competitors when canines take center stage at the 2012 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show next week, Reuters reported.
Other newcomers are the Cesky Terrier, the American English Coonhound and the Entlebucher Mountain Dog. They join 179 other breeds and varieties which will strut their stuff at the annual New York event on Feb. 13 & 14.
David Frei, the Westminster Kennel Club's director of communications and USA Network host, told reporters that "new breed is a misnomer" because some of the breeds have been around for hundreds, even thousands of years.
To gain inclusion in the show, a breed must meet American Kennel Club (AKC) rules including having sufficient numbers in the United States, a certain geographical distribution and a parent club that ensures responsible breeding practices, the report stated.
In the past 23 years, 40 breeds have been added to the show, which began in 1877 with 1,201 dogs competing. This year, the show's 136th, will boast 2,000 entries.
For a complete rundown of all the breeds in this year's show, visit the AKC's official website.

The Tjaart show
Rob Lee praises Tjaart van der Walt and Steve Stricker, and tips Martin Laird to make the Ryder Cup.
Last Updated: 11/01/12 1:53pm
Last week's Africa Open was all about the hometown players.
South Africans filled the top four places on the leaderboard, with 2010 Open Champion Louis Oosthuizen eventually fending off Tjaart van der Walt, Retief Goosen and Jaco van Zyl to retain the crown he picked up last season.
I was very impressed by the performance of runner-up Van der Walt. I have to confess I don't know too much about him but having looked at his résumé, I noticed he has been a perennial silver medallist throughout his 15-year career and never won an event.
I thought he may buckle under pressure during the final round up against Oosthuizen and Goosen but he actually equipped himself very well.
He only came up short when he selected the wrong club on the 17th hole and bogeyed it, while Oosthuizen holed a magnificent 35-foot putt for birdie. That was the only thing that separated van der Walt from a major champion.
Players can look at themselves and analyse why they haven't won and sometimes it's because they're not playing to win.
Going for the jugular can cost you, but there has to be an element of risk involved. I think players often play with too little risk and therefore don't close the deal.
Perhaps that has been Van der Walt's problem over the years, but I certainly can't accuse him of lacking courage last week; he didn't throw it away. Hopefully he maintains his form and gets himself in the winners' enclosure pretty soon.
At the Hyundai Tournament of Champions in Hawaii, Steve Stricker came out victorious.
He made a very quiet start to his final round which would have frustrated him because Kapalua is a course you want to make early birdies on.
Fellow Americans Jonathan Byrd and Webb Simpson got close to Stricker but he didn't panic because in his own words 'I knew I could play a good back nine'. He has also won every tournament when leading after 54 holes, a record which now stands at a staggering seven out of seven.
Steve was the highest-ranked player in the field and he played like it, but for a guy that was losing the feeling in his left arm at the back end of last season, it was a terrific comeback.
Scotland's Martin Laird finished second, three strokes behind Stricker, and if he keeps playing like that he will have a great chance of making the Ryder Cup.
He's a two-time winner on the PGA Tour, most recently at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in 2011, and a solid runner-up berth will only increase his standing.
He won't play enough European Tour events to qualify but he could get in via the world points list or do well enough to be considered for a captain's pick by Jose Maria Olazabal.
I'm sure Ollie will have his eyes on Laird because the 2012 Ryder Cup is being contested in America and that's where the 29-year-old plays almost all of his golf. I certainly wouldn't discount him lining up for Europe in Medinah in September.
It is always important to start a new season well, as Oosthuizen, Van der Walt, Stricker and Laird have done. You always want to shake the rust off and get into your stride.
Players from the school or the Challenge Tour are not going to be getting into tournaments every week, so it's vital that they perform each time they tee off, while for the top guys, it is about building momentum.
The desert run is looming for the players on the European Tour, then you're into the WGCs and before you know it, it's April and it's time for the Masters.
The more little green ticks you can give yourself the better. Even if you haven't won, chucking in a series of good rounds generates confidence and that really pays dividends when the big moments come along.
Just look at Charl Schwartzel. He won the Joburg Open in January last year and three months later he won the Masters' Green Jacket.
Tiger Woods has announced he will begin his season at Pebble Beach in February.
I think he will play more in 2012 than what we've been used to over the last couple of years, but he has never been a man with a massive schedule anyway. His tournament rate per year was only 20-odd, including the four majors and the WGCs, and I expect him to return to that this term.
His mantra this season will be: 'Bring it on'. When he plays to his best, he is still a shade above everybody else. He won't be thinking: 'I'll be happy with fifth place on the money list, or X, Y or Z'. He will believe that the sky's the limit.
If Tiger didn't think that he could get back to the number one spot in the world and collect more majors, he wouldn't play; I just can't see how a guy who's done what he's done could settle for turning up and being a lesser player.
He's not going to win another 14 majors from this point but he's going to win some.
Rob's Sky Bet Tips
Joburg Open: With Louis Oosthuizen not playing in this tournament, it makes Charl Schwartzel, 10/3 with Sky Bet, a clear favourite. He likes the golf course, having won the event last year, and something happens to these South African players when they return home. I don't know whether it's the food, the air, or the grass, but they make winning tournaments look as easy as shelling peas.
Garth Mulroy could go well; he's finished second in the Joburg Open twice and won in Mpumalanga towards the end of last year. But I'm going to go for another South African, George Coetzee, 18/1 with Sky Bet. I thought he might have had a breakthrough moment in 2011. He didn't, but I've got a sneaky feeling that he'll have a good week.
Sony Open: It is the first full PGA Tour event of the year so there is a level of expectancy. Steve Stricker is playing and so is KJ Choi, who performed well in the Hyundai, but I'm backing Webb Simpson, 11/1 with Sky Bet, who seems to play well every week, for victory.

Subject: [svlug-announce] SVLUG Feb 02: The GoSSIP Project
To: email@example.com
We're pleased to announce the next meeting of the
Silicon Valley Linux Users Group! ( http://www.svlug.org/ )
The GoSSIP Project
(Gossip Optimization for Selective Spam Prevention)
Wednesday, February 2, 2005,
7pm-9pm or so.
Mark C. Langston
GOSSiP (Gossip Optimization for Selective Spam Prevention)
[ http://sufficiently-advanced.net/ ] is a distributed, peer-to-peer
reputation management system. It tracks the behavior of e-mail
senders, and shares senders' reputations among participating mail
servers. These reputations may then be used by mail servers as part of
a comprehensive program to combat unwanted e-mail.
Mark C. Langston has been doing systems administration for more than
10 years. In that time, he has worked for small groups and huge
companies. He has worked in academia and industry, for startups and
long-established companies, and for salaries ranging from
below-subsistence to obscene in size. He's worked his way from the

Cisco Building 9 in Cisco's "Vineyards Conference Center".
This is at Cisco Systems' East Tasman campus in North San Jose.
Usually we have only half of the conference center so you'll be directed
right or left once inside to the side where the meeting is. Directions on
how to get there are listed at:
We've tried our very best for these directions to be accurate. If you
have any improvements to make, please let our Web Team know!
web-team at svlug.org
If you take transit, be aware that almost everything has changed recently.
The VTA light rail extension to Alum Rock is open now. And the
VTA 180 Express buses from Fremont BART now stop at VTA's Great Mall
light rail station, making the transit trek from the East Bay easier
than before. Other bus routes and schedules have also changed recently.
SVLUG's transit directions have been updated:
If you arrive with the peak of the crowd, there may be a small line
at the sign-in table, where Cisco's security will ask you to sign in.
(The facility is Cisco's private conference center which is not usually
available for public meetings. SVLUG appreciates being given the rare
privilege to meet here!)
After the speakers end their presentation there is usually a Q&A session,
time for job seekers and employers/recruiters to meet, and door prizes if
any are provided to SVLUG. When the meeting is over people are encouraged
to chat a bit, but also to exit the building so Cisco can lock up. Don't
worry, a lot of us go to dinner afterward so there's plenty of time to chat
outdoors or offsite.
We look forward to seeing you there!
If you just can't get enough, a smaller group usually goes to a local
restaurant/diner after the meeting. We'll announce the restaurant
selection at the meeting.

Rumors say that Kia Motors is planning to expand the range of sports models in the European market. Currently only pro_cee'd GT and cee'd GT were launched. According Theophilus Chin, Picanto and Rio models can have future GT versions.
Thus, based on the information, he projections of these two models GT versions. Picanto and Rio win the bumper with integrated spoilers, larger grille and custom LED fog lights, side skirts, rear spoiler and sports wheels are part of the visual. What would move these two small Korean?

Knots. Tee-totalling sailors make them, gondolas drift out to sea without them and gymnasts get sent to hospitals stuck in them. While these knots are annoying, they are always better anywhere else than in the human body. Massage all the kinks out of your body with a Swedish massage from Soulful Beauty for R365.
A Swedish massage is like tenderising your muscles, but without the hammer. Soulful Beauty therapists use a combination of effleurage (effleurage being a massage technique only the coolest therapists know of) kneading, building friction, stretching and tapping massaging strokes to heat up, release tension and unravel the tangled mess that is your muscles. Based on Western anatomical muscle maps, a Swedish massage is like a Spanish explorer discovering the uncharted sources of strain within your body.
Soulful Beauty harnesses the aromatic prowess of Decléor essential oils to crumble the bricks on your shoulders, evict the monkeys from your back and dissolve the lead from your feet. A combination of more than 30 years of scientific research and cosmetic expertise culminates into 40 essential oils used in a variety of 150 formulae so soothing, the muscles are transported into a state of Nirvana. This is probably why Decléor is considered the world's leading aromatherapy brand.
Exceptional as Decléor is, in the hands of an expert therapist, it takes your muscles to paradise. But in the hands of someone who is aromatherapy-intolerant, it can cause involuntary flamingo dancing. Good thing that Soulful Beauty is staffed with masterful massage therapists. These experienced therapists have a black belt in muscle-wrestling and will kick those asinine everyday stresses in the jaw.
Muscle Statistic: In a recent poll conducted by prominent physiologists Dr Unter Preschure, it was discovered that seven out of every three muscles don't like being put in the ring with Bulgarian shot-put champions.

1. Termination of Canadian Diabetes Registry Contract
In September 2012, it was reported that eHealth Ontario, the province's electronic health records agency, terminated a contract with CGI Information Systems and Management Consultants (a subsidiary of CGI Group) to set up a diabetes registry. A resolution passed by the eHealth board of directors earlier that month had recommended terminating the CAN$46.2 million contract, a six-year contract awarded in August 2010 to design, build, and maintain an electronic data registry to monitor diabetes patients. eHealth claimed that CGI had regularly missed development deadlines, and that the resulting delays rendered the system obsolete.... more»
