THE way states handled their national tobacco settlement windfall may forecast how national mortgage settlement funds are managed — and critics say that's not good.
The multistate tobacco lawsuit settlement in 1998 was expected to provide participating states, including Oklahoma, a combined $246 billion over the first 25 years. Health care advocates hoped the money would be used to address health needs, particularly smoking reduction, but a 2011 report by the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids found that largely hasn't been the case.
The report showed that in fiscal year 2012, the states collected $25.6 billion from the tobacco settlement and from tobacco taxes, a near record. Yet funding for tobacco prevention and cessation programs was slashed by 12 percent — and by 36 percent over four years.
Nationally, in fiscal 2012 just 1.8 percent of tobacco revenue was used to prevent kids from smoking and help adult smokers quit; the total spent in all states on tobacco prevention programs and the percentage of tobacco revenue dedicated to those programs was the lowest since 1999.
Critics suggest the same thing may already be happening to billions reaped this year by a multistate settlement with the country's five largest mortgage services companies for alleged consumer abuses. Under that settlement, the banks will pay more than $25 billion, with $2.5 billion of that going directly to states for housing counseling and foreclosure prevention programs. But in many cases, states have chosen to use the money for other needs.
A report by Enterprise Community Partners found that just $1 billion of the $2.5 billion total was dedicated to helping distressed homeowners. Much of the remainder was directed to other uses, including propping up state spending in unrelated areas.

Humanity is amidst an information revolution that is not only redefining our economy, but our culture and society as well to form a globally connected presence unified by technology.

State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapolis office has criticized the village of Lyons Falls in an audit for collecting too much money in taxes from residents since the 2008-09 fiscal year.
The audit revealed that nearly $640,000 in surplus funds remained after the 2012-13 fiscal year, an increase of about $200,000 over the five-year span.
The surplus amounts to nearly double the villages annual budget, which for 2013-14 is about $352,000, the audit noted.
The comptrollers office said Mayor Catherine Liendecker told the office that the village board opted to overestimate the budget to protect the village against unforeseen circumstances.
These excesses, however, grew each year, leading the comptrollers office to say that village officials levied and collected more taxes than necessary to fund village operations.
The state suggested the village use the surplus to reduce property taxes, increase or establish necessary reserves, finance one-time expenditures or pay off debt.
The comptrollers office said that village officials have taken steps to use the unexpended surplus by adopting a fund balance policy, establishing a contingency and tax stabilization reserve and entering into an agreement with the Development Authority of the North Country.
Mayor Liendecker stated in a written response, We have been working diligently the past four years to improve our operations and governance.
The village will submit a corrective action plan to the state within the required 90 days, she wrote.

Deputies said 22-year-old Cassandra Richards was fighting with family members and left the 10-month-old alone for about a half hour.
Deputies said by the time anyone got to the baby investigators said he was sweating and that his diaper was overflowing.
Richards was charged with child neglect and was already on probation for trafficking heroin.

help me decide if it's worth it
I have a late 99 reg cab, base model, no option truck. 266K miles, Mechanically it runs great! Truck had crappy body work done to it before I bought it. Looks good from 15 feet away, but whoever did it put a bed on it that some mud work done and when they painted the bed they painted the lower half of the doors to blend but did a crap job of it (can see tape line in paint) Frame is totally solid but body is getting rusty underneath, primarily rockers. Floors are solid as well as the bed. I'm not keen on the idea of putting a ton of money into money for body and paint work as the truck isn't what I want as far as creature comforts.
I found a 99 lariat extended cab with 170K miles that needs a similar amount of body work plus the trans is slipping in 1st when warm. (I'm assuming no saving that trans. Either reman or remove and rebuild DIY would be within my budget)
I bought my truck as a secondary vehicle, but it has become my primary vehicle and due to that I'd really prefer to have extended cab, AC, etc. I have a Vegistroke kit I'm installing and plenty of oil so my fuel savings makes up for added costs of ownership/maintenance of having a 7.3 as a daily driver.
So, should I buy the truck, get a reman trans and sell mine?
What do you think the reg cab truck is worth as it sits?
Buy the truck, swap trannies and rebuild the trans for the reg cab at my leisure and sell it when thats complete?
Be happy with what I have and who cares if my truck isn't that great looking or comfortable?
Any other ideas?
I know it's hard to give opinions on this without having all the details, but if you wanna throw your 2 cents in I'd appreciate it!

Our review on the Sanyo PLV-Z5 Projector
The Fifth generation home cinema projector from Sanyo's Z series, The PLV-Z5 features superb natural colours and sharp image quality and is one of our best selling home cinema models.
The Sanyo PLV-Z5 features a sleek gray casework and comes complete with motorized lens cover. The cover opens automatically when you power the projector on, then closes up again when it's turned off. This will help to keep dust off of the lens without forcing you to remember to replace the lens cap.
The Lens Shift in neutral position puts the center of the image at the same height as the centerline of the lens. From this position, the image can be shifted 50% of the picture width to either side or 150% above or below the lens. This allows for a wide range of mounting options and is one of the best short throw home cinema projectors available making it ideal for placing on coffee tables etc.
The menu system has an abundance of features to make the most of your projector's performance and tailor the projected image to your viewing environment. Image wise, the PLV-Z5 delivers as close to a noise-free image as we've seen in projectors in this price range. exceptionally clean, sharp, natural images are assured!
Unfortunately the rumours there was to be a Sanyo PLV-Z6 are untrue. Once our stocks of the PLV-Z5 have gone one era will end and another begin for its replacement the Sanyo PLV-Z2000 is a Full HD 1080p model.

I made this for a chili cookoff at work and won first place. I used the whole bottle of porter and used jalapenos and cayenne peppers instead of chipotle. Very good recipe.flag if inappropriate
I really liked this dish. The smokey flavor offset by the lime crema was wonderful. I did use finely chopped sirloin instead of ground beef the second time I made it, even better!flag if inappropriate
Just use a full can or bottle of stout and cut down the amount of broth respectively. This has a very deep and rich flavor, and the lime crema adds a special zing to it.flag if inappropriate
Delicious. I'm from chili country and this is a great variation. Had no "stout" so I used non-alcoholic beer which worked fine. Also added some concentrated beef juice from roast. Great depth of flavor. Try it with low fat (not nonfat) sour cream. I cut the amount of chili powder by half...personal preference. Still plenty spicy.flag if inappropriate
I made a completely VEGAN version of this recipe by substituting the ground beef with one package of Boca ground beef substitute, one can of red kidney beans, and half a bag of frozen corn (it was already opened and just taking up space so i figured "what the hell"). Obviously sub'd beef broth with veggie. I used a sour cream substitute which at first seemed really stiff and un-sour cream like, but the texture loosened up with the addition of the lime juice. The wannabe gourmet grocery story that I went to didn't have canned chipotles, so I used some ancho chili paste. Overall, it's pretty good, it has an interesting flavor. It's a good jumping off point for a chili recipe, start with this and make your own additions and stuff. **Needs lots of cayenne for some kick**flag if inappropriate
We loved loved loved this recipe, Dice some fresh avocados on top and it even betterflag if inappropriate
I liked this recipe, but have a few suggestions. I added a couple of cans of tomatoes and would add some corn next time for color, also used more beer. I would use much less meat next time (1 1/2 -2 pounds). All around, a very good chili that I'd make again. Very smoky flavor and it freezes really well.flag if inappropriate
This is a superb recipe that I'm definitely going to make again. I doubled the amount of chipotles to increase the heat, but, otherwise left everything else the same.flag if inappropriate
I make this recipe every 2 weeks during the winter. It is the BEST chili I have ever had. I especially like the lime crema. It adds just the right amount coolness to the spicy chili. Add more chipotle for extra flavor!flag if inappropriate
I just returned from a Chili cook-off where I tied for first with this recipe. It is mild with a tasty, spicy after taste. I recommend making it a day or two before with at least 2 re-heats before serving. I also added some chopped chilantro to the lime crema.flag if inappropriate

Hoover Dam
The dam is named after Herbert Hoover, the U.S. president who agreed to have the dam built so that Nevada, California, and Arizona could increase irrigation waters and manage flood waters, and create hydroelectric-power. It was built in just five years - an impressive feat, considering the dam is made of enough concrete to pave a road from New York to California.
Hoover Dam stands 726 feet (220 m) above the Colorado River. The observation deck set above the dam provides scenic, 360-degree views of the Colorado River and nearby Lake Mead. Visitors can also tour through the inside of the dam, entering into the inspection tunnels. It is here that you'll encounter inspection markings written on the walls over 70 years ago.

Louis Del Papa
PAWTUCKET- Louis Del Papa of Pawtucket and Prudence Island died Saturday, April 7, 2012. He was the husband of the late Margaret (Magill) Del Papa.
Mr. Del Papa was born in Pawtucket, the son of the late Louis and Margaret (Moore) Del Papa.
Lou was a member of many professional organizations, locally, regionally, and nationally. He retired as the Director of Teacher Preparation, Certification, and Professional Development for the State of Rhode Island.
PAWTUCKET – Finally, there's some good news concerning Andrew Miller.
Barring any setbacks, the hurler expects to take the next step in his rehab and join the Pawtucket Red Sox at some point on the team's upcoming nine-game road trip. Miller made his second of two appearances with Single-A Greenville Monday, seeking to build off of Saturday's one-inning stint that featured no runs on two hits. He did just that, retiring all three batters he faced on two groundball outs and one strikeout.
"I felt healthy and that's all I can ask for," said Miller when reached Monday afternoon.
PAWTUCKET — Two city men were arrested on numerous drug charges after illegal marijuana growing operations were found in their Mulberry Street apartments, Pawtucket Police said.
CENTRAL FALLS — Can the unthinkable become tomorrow's reality? In the season of rebirth and renewal of hope, along with the boundless belief that anything is possible, then, yes, Kashif Montgomery has every right to aim high.
If you had to count the number of softball teams in the Blackstone Valley who should post winning records this season, you're definitely going to need every finger on your two hands to total them up.
First, you have to start with the region's top three teams who play in arguably the toughest division in the state, the Division I-North circuit. Defending state champion Cumberland, two-time state finalist Mount St. Charles, and Lincoln all reside here and figure to be fiercely battling it out for first place once again this season.
PAWTUCKET — Chris Iannetta made his major-league debut on August 27, 2006. That night's starting pitcher for Colorado happened to be Aaron Cook, one the PawSox arms to keep close tabs on at the onset of the 2012 season.
Let the record show that Cook and Iannetta hit it off instantly, the folks at baseball-reference.com denoting that the pitcher tossed eight innings of two-run ball in Colorado's 6-3 win against San Diego.
PROVIDENCE — Most coaches will gladly tell you that a win is a win no matter the circumstances. That was certainly the case after Friday's three-hour plus affair at Davis Park as Tolman bused back to Exchange Street with a hard-fought 13-8 win against fellow Division II-Central foe Classical.
PAWTUCKET — What a difference a few months makes. After being rescued out of receivership by a private developer, the historic Pawtucket Armory building is being given a second lease on life as an arts and entertainment venue as well as commercial loft/office space.
The castle-like, brick and stone building that sits majestically at the top of Exchange Street was purchased last fall by Brian Thibeault, the owner of Joseph Properties, a New Hampshire-based development firm. Thibeault paid a reported $561,000 for the 48,000-square foot property at auction.
WOONSOCKET – Sometimes painted as the Molly Hatchet of the Rhode Island medical marijuana movement, putting the axe to the state's three proposed compassion centers before they had a chance to open, U.S. Attorney Peter Neronha says he just wants to make sure everyone knows where his office stands on the issue so there will be "no surprises" when, and if, a dispensary opens up.
Mary O'Brien
PAWTUCKET- Catherine Mary (Strzepka) O'Brien, 90, passed away Wednesday, April 4, 2012 at the home of her son in Dayton, Ohio. She was the beloved wife of the late John F. O'Brien.
Born in Central Falls, the eldest daughter of the late Simon and Mary (Zmuda) Strzepka, she resided in Pawtucket most of her life.
Joseph A. Belch
WARWICK - Joseph A. Belch 68, of Creekwood Drive passed away Wednesday April 4, 2012 at his residence. He was the beloved husband of Carole A. (Thurber) Belch.
Born in Pawtucket he was a son of the late Joseph and Stella A. (Rogala) Belch. He lived in Warwick for the past 31 years and was formerly of Pawtucket.
Before retiring he was employed as a Printer at United Printing for 31 years. He was a member of the Rhode Island National Guard during the Vietnam War for 6 years. Joe was a softball coach for 20 years for former Surkonts Cafe.
PAWTUCKET — While the city of Providence has a significantly larger pension fund problem to deal with than Pawtucket, the city's ad hoc Committee on City Pensions and OPEB Obligations heard details about how the state capital has been handling such matters at its meeting on Thursday.
PAWTUCKET – It had all the pageantry of Opening Day, from the introduction to the teams to the unfurling of an American flag in center field and a cannon salute that sounded off at the conclusion of the national anthem.
The Pawtucket Red Sox kept up their end of bargain, scoring a 4-2 triumph over Buffalo Thursday night before 8,872 shivering fans. Leadoff hitter Pedro Ciriaco led the victors with four hits in five trips. The second baseman showed off his wheels as three of his base knocks did not get past the infield.
PAWTUCKET — Aaron Cook joined forces with the Red Sox over the winter after spending every single one of his 10 major-league seasons with the Colorado Rockies. Situated in Pawtucket as the 2012 season gets underway, the 33-year-old comes to McCoy Stadium with the reputation as someone who focuses primarily on pitching to contact and letting the defense take care of the rest.
PROVIDENCE — New Brown University athletic director Jack Hayes had just wrapped up his short introductory speech when an inquiring mind asked how he plans to address a personnel matter that figures to be high up on his to-do list.
"You want the job?" replied a smiling Hayes upon being broached about offering some insight surrounding the school's men's basketball head coaching position, a spot currently operating on an interim basis under the guiding hand of Pawtucket native T.J. Sorrentine.
WOONSOCKET — Before Mount St. Charles Academy faced Lincoln High in a Division II-North battle on Thursday afternoon, head coach Doug Allen asked his squad to be aggressive from the start, especially offensively, to set the tone.
It was something the Mounties had failed to do in a 9-7 loss to Providence Country Day only 48 hours earlier.
"We fell behind, 3-0, right away, and we had to work hard to battle back," Allen stated. "We have a fast-break, running kind of team, and when we get a lead and we unleash the horses, we're all set. If we don't, then we're usually in for a tough game."
James T. Corcoran
PAWTUCKET- James T. Corcoran, 69, of Armistice Blvd, Pawtucket died April 1, 2012.
Mr. Corcoran was born in Pawtucket, the son of the late Peter J. Corcoran and Rose Irene (Johnson) Corcoran.
He was a United States Marine Corp Veteran serving in the Vietnam War. Mr. Corcoran served as Chaplain for the American Legion Post #25 and a life member of the VFW Post #1271.
Jean M. Douglas
PAWTUCKET- Jean M. Douglas, 75, of Naushon Road, Pawtucket died at home surrounded by her family. She was the wife of James N. Douglas.
Jean was born in Providence the daughter of Felix and Lillian (Monahan) Reilly.
PAWTUCKET — An architecture engineering firm hired to study the leaking Pawtucket City Hall tower has come up with four solutions and is recommending one — a masonry restoration of $1.1 million — as the best fix.
PAWTUCKET – Speaking with a straight face, Jose Iglesias called his spring training experience under the direction of new Boston manager Bobby Valentine "awesome." Expounding further, the shortstop prospect provided evidence designed to illustrate the change in culture surrounding the way the Red Sox conduct business between the white lines.

Nostalgic Candy Makes for the Best Birthday Gift!
Nostalgic Candy Makes for the Best Birthday Gift!
Our favorite foods are packed with more than flavor; many are also packed with tons of terrific memories. Every time I eat a pistachio I remember my mom trying her best to get me to eat them as a kid. After refusing what must have been 100 times, I finally caved and cracked open the shell. Needless to say, it wasn't long before I was asking for another and another! The same holds true for many things, from our grandmother's lemon meringue pie, to the sweet
nostalgic candy
we'd buy at the corner store. We love all these things because they taste wonderful, but also because of the role they have played in our lives, and in our interactions with the people and places who mean the most.
When it comes time to gift a close friend, family member or significant other, we often put a great deal of pressure on ourselves to make a splash. Perhaps a fancy watch will work best, or a grand weekend getaway? While these are nice options, there's something much cheaper and tastier to consider:
nostalgic candy
. And if you're looking for the best of the best nostalgic candy, it's right here at SuperiorNutStore.com!
If the person you'll be buying a gift for is older or younger than you, think of what candies were popular when they were a child. Keep your nostalgic candy focus on these, but don't be afraid to throw in some favorites from your youth that you think they might enjoy as well! One of the best things about candy is that it's fun and easy to share, so they might even let you partake in a few bites of your present.
Since a birthday is a celebration just for them, unlike holidays we all celebrate together on the same day,
nostalgic candy
makes an especially fun selection that calls for a bit of indulgence. They can feel like a kid again as they smack, crack and peel the wrapper back on some Bonomo Turkish Taffy; they can remember that long before they separated their whites and colors in the wash, they were separating their Runts and Swiss Petite Fruits by flavor.

WFE Interviews Azamat Joldasbekov, CEO, KASE
FOCUS: Could you give us a bit of background about your exchange?
Kazakhstan Stock Exchange (formerly the Kazakh Interbank Currency and Stock Exchange) was founded on November 17, 1993. The main reason for creating KASE was to facilitate the introduction of the Kazakhstan's national currency Tenge (KZT), and so the need for a solid mechanism to establish the market exchange rate of the newly introduced currency.
This month Kazakhstan Stock Exchange (KASE) is celebrating its 20th anniversary. Throughout 20-years of its history KASE evolved into the only licensed and regulated stock exchange in Kazakhstan with the following markets: foreign currency market, government securities market, market of shares and corporate bonds, bills and derivatives market.
As of November 01, 2013 the total trading volume of KASE was 164.2 bn USD, out of which the corporate securities represent only 1.6 %. Therefore, KASE still remains mainly a currency exchange with the aim to increase its shares and corporate bonds markets.Current market capitalization of the shares and corporate bonds markets is 31.8 bn USD and 35.3 bn USD respectively.
KASE is a commercial joint-stock company with 56 shareholders. The National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan is the largest shareholders with 50.1 %. Other shareholders include banks, brokerage firms, asset management companies, pension funds and other professional financial institutions, as well as individuals. KASE in turn is a shareholder of the Kazakhstani Central Securities Depository (38.7 %) and Kyrgyz Stock Exchange (10.6 %), and together with IRBIS Financial Markets Information Agency LLP (100 %), IT company eTrade.kz LLP (100 %) and back-up center maintenance company RTRS LLP (50 %) represents a KASE Group.
FOCUS: How active are foreign investors in your exchange? How accessible is your market?
IT connectivity, access/restrictions for foreign investors; the breakdown of the investors, breakdown of companies listed by sector (financial, industrial and other services.)
Some large foreign banks already established their offices in Almaty and are members of KASE (CITIBANK, HSBC, JP Morgan, RBS, Sberbank, and other). There are no limitations on currency exchange or repatriation of capital. The tax regime is rather liberal and attractive to foreign investors. In 2013 the share of foreign investors in the corporate securities market was around 13.6 %.
Moreover, KASE is at the final stage of introducing remote access to foreign financial market participants and Direct Market Access opportunity to allow clients of KASE members to access KASE trading system directly. In the nearest future KASE plans to enhance its settlement system and introduce an improved robust and reliable risk management mechanisms.
At the same time, a stock market in any emerging economy should comply with certain requirements to become more attractive for foreign investors. Major requirements include, but are not limited to market volumes, liquidity and number of traded instruments, free of high costs and unnecessary red tape/administrative barriers access to the market, transparent and understandable rules, reliable technical and efficient organizational infrastructure. The market should provide protection of the investors' rights and ensure robust market surveillance and transparency for both investors and issuers. KASE has been improving in all of these areas and continue focusing on them for further development of regulations and infrastructure of Kazakhstani capital market, which has a significant growth potential.
KASE is keen on bringing more attractive financial instruments to the market through individual collaboration with each potential issuer attractive for large-scale investors. National bond market in 1998-2000 was launched the same way, through interpersonal communication, persuasion and explanation of benefits. KASE understands the importance of IPO road-shows and international information campaigns and is keen on working in close contact with international players interested in investing in Kazakhstani securities.
Implementation of the "People's IPO" on KASE is very important and if all the companies projected for IPO in the framework of this program will go public on KASE, our market capitalization and trading volumes will grow significantly, thus attracting both local and foreign investors. Currently, KASE's listed companies primarily represent the energy, finance, telecommunication and raw materials sectors of the economy.
Further attraction of foreign investors to Kazakhstani capital market and increasing the volume of foreign investments in Kazakhstani securities is one of the priority public policy objectives aimed at development of the financial sector. Thus, in the framework of improving financial market infrastructure, NBRK focuses its efforts on implementing measures aimed at ensuring investors' confidence in the capital market of Kazakhstan. In addition to earlier mentioned endeavors, NBRK is introducing regulatory changes aimed at increasing market transparency and preventing market manipulation. Adequate information, solid rules and robust market surveillance, will enable KASE to continue delivering sufficient services to the market bringing it to full compliance with best international practice and attracting more foreign investors.
FOCUS: What new project/product are you currently working on?
Much emphasis is made on attracting new quality issuers to the market, which will in turn bring new investors and enhance liquidity. We will approach companies individually and during the IPO acquisition campaigns in the regions of Kazakhstan, raising awareness of the local companies about attracting capital for further growth on the stock market. Currently, we came up with the proposal to the regulator to introduce changes to our listing requirements for different listing categories making them in compliance with the best international practice.
As already mentioned earlier, KASE is keen to attract more investors, including both local and foreign investors. As the investor base in Kazakhstan is highly institutionalized, we are working on a number of measures to bring more retail investors to the market. One of the measure's is recently introduced "People's IPO" program designed to attract Kazakhstani citizens to the capital market, others include, but are not limited to information awareness campaigns for retail investors.
In addition, KASE is working on raising visibility of the Kazakhstani financial market among foreign investors. This year KASE has become a full member of WFE. KASE is also a member of the International Association of Exchanges of the Commonwealth of Independent States and the Federation of Euro-Asian Stock Exchanges, as well as affiliate member at the South-Asian Federation of Exchanges. In addition, KASE is a member of the Software & Information Industry Association's Financial Information Services Division and continues working actively on establishment of bilateral and multilateral relations with the foreign exchanges, international association and financial institutions.
KASE regularly upgrades existing trading and post-trading systems aimed at creation of technical framework for introduction of new instruments and ensuring easy and efficient access to the market. KASE is committed to development of our market's IT-infrastructure both in a short-term and in a long-term prospective to ensure compliance with local and international investors' requirements.
KASE also worked on further development of the securities market settlement scheme, as well as derivatives market that was launched in 2010. KASE conducted targeted regulatory and marketing activities, discussing these projects with the regulator and market participants, making presentations and offering educational seminars.
FOCUS: What are the challenges you see in your market today and in the future?
The main challenge is to relaunch the market. In order to do so it is necessary to prepare and implement a new strategy for the exchange's operation and development. The key points of the future strategy are clear now – to focus on new IPOs and bring more investors to the market, to optimize the listing procedures to the needs of issuers and investors, overall increase of friendliness and ease of the exchange's services for its customers.
These are the main points of the so-called binary concept of the stock market, which implies a market in which regulation and rules are differentiated depending on the type of investor. The new strategy will also need to focus on the new in Kazakhstan institute of investment banks which should develop in the foreseeable future.
For Kazakhstan, a country with dominant natural resources industry, capital market can serve as a tool for economic diversification, wealth distribution, spread of ownership, corporate governance enhancement, as well as establishing strong transparency provision mechanisms. KASE alongside with the regulator focuses its efforts on increasing trustworthiness of the capital market which requires further development of clear and understandable rules, safe and sustainable infrastructure and transparent market practices in order to increase attractiveness of Kazakhstani capital market and ensure investor protection.
One of the major government measures aimed at development of the capital market is the announced and launched in November 2012 a three-year "People's IPO" program, i.e. placement of state-owned companies' shares on domestic stock market for purchase by the Kazakhstani population. Among companies considered for IPOs are national conglomerates with a proven track record of progress and stability. These companies belong to the state-owned "Sovereign Wealth Fund "Samruk-Kazyna". Through IPOs the Sovereign Wealth Fund is planning to privatize approximately 5-15% of these companies. KASE being one of its major participants prioritized its medium and long-term projects to ensure successful implementation of these IPOs on Kazakhstani stock market.
In addition to already announced by the Kazakhstani government listings of the SOEs, KASE is keen on attracting new listings and ensuring a substantial IPO pipeline. Generally, the exchange is aimed at facilitating successful implementation of the government strategy aimed at ensuring sustainable and balanced growth of the economy through diversification and enhancement of its competitiveness, creating favorable investment environment, increasing investments to the economy through the capital market, and successful entry of Kazakhstani "blue chips" to the national stock market.
We do not expect any miracles: the restart of the market will take at least two to three years according the optimistic estimates. But the restart is necessary and a lot of hard work for it is even more necessary.
FOCUS: How do you assess your exchange`s position at a time of increased globalization?
Kazakhstan's securities market is considered one of the most developed markets in the CIS in terms of regulation and infrastructure. It ranks second after Russia by trade turnover and is ahead of Ukraine by both trading volume and capitalization. There are, however, certain weaknesses that hinder faster development of the market, including low liquidity and lack of financial instruments. Thus, Kazakhstan's securities market can be considered to be at the early stages of its development, which means that the potential for growth is rather high.

I'll be making cupcakes for a wedding and the bride has requested whip-cream frosting. It is my understanding that the display life for whip-cream frosting is short (1-2 hours). Is this true?
Also, so there a light frosting that isn't very sweet (similar to whip-cream) that could be used in it's place? Something that has a longer display life (something similar to a buttercream).
1. What is the display life of whip-cream?
2. What would be a good substitute for whip-cream? (please include recipe and approximate display life)
Note: By "display life", I mean how long it can sit out of the fridge without running or flopping.
Thank you.

CENTRAL FALLS – A Central Falls woman was arrested Friday and charged with selling crack cocaine from her home on Lincoln Avenue.
Andrea Diaz, of 119 Lincoln Ave., was arrested after members of the Central Falls Police Department's Special Investigative Unit executed a narcotics search of her first-floor apartment.
Police said during a two month investigation, it was discovered that Diaz was selling crack cocaine from her apartment. On April 2, detectives executed a search warrant at the same address to Diaz' boyfriend, Richard Santiago, who was charged with manufacturing with intent to deliver and distribute cocaine near a school zone.
During Friday's search of Diaz's apartment, detectives located a small amount of crack cocaine and 19 Diazepam pills. Diaz was located outside the apartment as detectives arrived.
She was subsequently placed under arrest and charged with possession of Schedule I-V and Schedule IV narcotics.
She was held overnight and transported to District Court for arraignment Friday morning. She was released on personal recognizance and is scheduled back in court in October.

List of Crazy: Snoop Dogg
Snoop Dogg (Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr) is mainly famous for his 30 million album sales and cameo appearances in films, but there are many more reasons for his fame/infamy…
Changed his name to Snoop Lion in Jamaica in 2012 because he believes he is the reincarnation of Bob Marley: "I didn't know until I went to the temple where the High Priest asked me what my name was," he explains, "I said, 'Snoop Dogg.' And he looked me in my eyes and said, 'No more. You are the light; you are the lion.'"
- Changed his name from Snoop Lion to Snoopzilla a few months later to promote his new album, "7 Days of Funk." (But he'll always be Snoop D-O-double G to us.)
Has a mascot named Nasty Dogg, a pot-bellied person wearing a dog head and sporting pigtail braids. He dances but mostly follows Snoop around the stage waving his hands/paws. Nasty Dogg also enjoys walking around with giant joints and large fake penises.
Re-wrote and re-recorded "Drop it Like It's Hot" to advertise American microwaveable snack Hot Pockets. Includes an announcement that he's "got some cheesy drizzle/dripping on my shizzle."
Popularised the slang suffix "-izzle" (check out Double-Dutch Bus by Frankie Smith in 1981 for the original use), that can be tagged onto the end of most words. "Fo shizzle" may be the most popular (translation: for sure) but check out Gizoogle to tranzizzle a site (translation: translate) into Snoop-speak or just to, y'know, recommend some shizzle.
Co-wrote a novel called "Love Don't Live Here No More" with David E Talbert, the first in a series of Doggy Tales about a man called Ulysses Jeffries. No more were made.
Insults people with help from his alter-ego Nemo. He once told Kris Humphries (Kim Kardashian's ex-husband): "my advice is you can't make a ho a housewife. Don't try to reinvent the wheel." Most recently got into a feud with Iggy Azalea by posting an insulting photo on instagram and started name-calling, he later apologised and posted a video on the site saying there would be, "no more bad talk".
Loves a good endorsement opportunity. Has lent his name to: Norton Antivirus ("Hack is Wack"), hotdogs ("The 'Snoop Dogg' Dog"), Monster energy drinks (did his 1963 Cadillac Coupe de Ville up to look like an energy drink), and German mobile phone company Vybemobile which is, frankly, a personal favourite:
- Enjoys learning about cookery with Martha Stewart. Has made mash potatoes and christmas brownies, but requested the brownies be decorated green because "green is environmental."
10. In 2007, Snoop still had never heard of Harry Potter, quoted delcaring: "I keep hearing about mutha f***ing Harry Potter. Who is this mutha****er?"
11. Started smoking weed in school and revealed in 2005 that he smoked 2 ounces a day. Had quit at age 41 so, conservatively speaking, he had smoked around 682kg in two to three decades- the equivalent of a small car.
12. Offered Welsh farmer Ian Neale, the owner of the world's largest Swede, tickets to his Cardiff gig in return for some advice on growing his own vegetables. He got some good advice, a packet of rootgrower and then offered 68 year-old Neale a spliff. Which the gardener took because he "didn't want to be rude" despite the fact it "smelled funny."

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Olympic Soccer is a soccer game developed by U.S Gold and published by Eidos Interactive in lieu of the 1996 Summer Olympic games held in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. The game is split into four main game modes for players to choose from, with standard Exhibition, Arcade, League modes included alongside a simulation of the Olympic competition from Atlanta in 1996.A tally of 32 teams are included in the game, with the 16 teams who qualified for the real life tournament at the Olympics as well as 16 developer selected teams. These range from eventual gold medallists Nigeria, hosts the USA, the un-qualified China and even a faux-England team (as England don't compete in Olympic competition as a single country). Additionally, player names were fake and not licensed for use.Up to four players can play the game through use of the Multitap accessory, with a two player mode being available for players without the eponymous extneral add-on. A computer-controlled demo of the game can be selected via the menu, showing two teams playing against each other without player input.The game features some unique commentary from radio-host Alan Green -- as evidenced by his "Whack!" exclamation when players would shoot -- as well as 18 different camera angles, motioned captured animations and polygonal object modelling in a real time 3D engine.Gameplay contains a few additions that set it apart from other luminaries of the time (Actua Soccer, Kick Off, Adidas Power Soccer), including the ability to alter the flight of a ball in mid-air, allowing for extensive curve, swerve and movement to allude goalkeeping AI. This ability could be classified as a 3D representation of the mechanic found in the popular Sensible Soccer franchise or the Xbox Live Arcade release Fitba, which pays homage to the former.The game also has several notable glitches, for example; if your player runs at a 45 degree angle to the corner of the box and shot, it is almost impossible for the goal keeper to save it, resulting in a goal more often than not. This glitch can be exploited to hang large scores on opponents. Also, shooting at the corner flag can also result in a glitched goal.

More than 2,000 children from underserved schools have participated in the program so far.
A group of English as a Second Language students is spending one week learning from art teachers, while also expanding their vocabulary.
"We've designed our program to help them develop their language skills at the same time that they are getting to express themselves creatively. The arts support the language development," said Justin Davies, Outreach Programs Coordinator.
The program is funded by one of the museum's biggest events of the year called "August Moon" and Title 3 federal funds.
The students' work will be on display at the Honolulu Museum of Art School until Aug. 3.

Macros play a much bigger role in Access 2010 than in previous versions. In fact, using a macro is the only way to automate tasks in Web objects and in applications that you publish to Access Services.
One area that has caused confusion involves using the correct syntax in a macro.
First of all, there are two classes of macro arguments, each of which requires very different syntax.
The first class of macro argument is a string. An example is the Message argument of the MessageBox macro action. To specify a message, enter a string in the argument, without quotes:
However, you can also enter an expression in this argument by entering an equal sign, and then entering an expression. Like all expressions, strings need to be enclosed using quotation marks:
The other class of argument is stated in the form of an expression. An example of this type is the WhereCondition argument of the SetFilter macro action. In the Macro Designer, these arguments display an equal sign before and outside the argument text box, to highlight to the user that the argument must be expressed in the form of an expression.
Important considerations when using expression argument
What is "double expression" and why should I care?
"Double expression" or "double evaluation" occurs whenever one expression is nested inside another. In an expression argument, if you enter an equal (=) sign in the text box, the expression will be evaluated twice -- once for your equal sign and once for the equal sign that appears before and outside the argument text box.
Why should you care? Because if you are using an expression argument in a Web database macro, the syntax must be correct or you will get a run-time error each time your macro is run. Double expression is not supported in Access Services applications. If you have a macro argument that results in double expression, a run-time error will occur each time your macro is run.
Bottom line: If you are using an expression argument in a Web database macro, do not enter an equal sign at the beginning of the expression.
In general ...
If you are using an expression argument in a client database macro, you should not enter an equal sign at the beginning of the expression unless you have a specific need for it. Note: Double evaluation results in a very slight performance hit every time your macro is run.
Regardless of database type, all strings in expression arguments must be enclosed using quotation marks.

Sorry to bug you all.
I need to make my current image of (200×200) to be 1000×1000. However, the graphics tool I have is Paint (that comes with Windows), not good to resize it and retain its quality. So, I wonder if any soul could be kind enough to download it,
and resize it to 1000×1000 for me.
Many thanks.
Zooming in on small images and retaining (or even improving) quality only happens on TV, especially in cop shows.
A standard resize results in this: http://www.senff.com/kn-boxshot-1000.jpg
So, Senff, only the original creator can resize it to retain its quality? Yours looks all right. Thanks.
Call CSI in on the case…
>Yours looks all right. Thanks.
You must have a bad screen, that is horrendously bad quality.
Agreed. Very poor quality.
You can try this site and download a free trial. I had pretty good results using it. http://www.ononesoftware.com/products/perfect-resize/
Janet, you're my girl!
All right, in all earnestness, any string attached to their free trial? for instance, watermark for the resized image? Thanks.
All right, all,
Since we are at it, please take a look at this guy, see if you like it better compared to
Neither. You need to learn some design fundamentals first before trying to apply those to an actual design.
It's not exactly my design. Could you show one or two that you consider meet your standard?
Unless they're in vector format, it would require some work. I doubt anyone will do that for you unless you commissioned them.
>Could you show one or two that you consider meet your standard?
It's not about "my" standard. It's basic level design fundamentals, the elements that you need for basing any design around, web, print, anything:
– white space
– visual hierarchy
– colour schemes
– typography
– alignment & grids
Any more from anyone?
The designs you linked to don't show any incorporation of these elements at all. And taking a step back from designing it, if you can't recognise that then you need to start at the basics, so I'd recommend a design fundamentals course or similar in all seriousness, if you're interested in doing design yourself.
Failing that buy a theme or pay someone to design one for you.

Rick Santorum's Catholic Blues
I'm not surprised that Rick Santorum is failing to persuade Catholic voters in Ohio, a key Super Tuesday state with national political implications. As commentators have noted for a while, Santorum's culture warrior style has been embraced more by conservative evangelicals than Catholics.
While Santorum's focus on sex, the '60s and traditional families is gospel for a culturally conservative segment of the Catholic vote, his anti-government demagoguery and lecturing of low-income families and minorities sit uncomfortably with many Catholics whose religious tradition helped lay the moral groundwork for the New Deal.
Back in January, I argued that Santorum had a lot of nerve casting himself as a standard-bearer for Catholic values in politics given how frequently his conservative ideology clashes with traditional Catholic social teaching. Simply put, Santorum is out of step with Catholic bishops and Pope Benedict XVI when it comes to moral issues like immigration, torture, war, economic justice and environmental stewardship.
This has not stopped conservative Catholic commentators and influential media outlets from perpetuating a simplistic narrative that Santorum is a poster boy for traditional Catholic values. From a front-page New York Times profile on Sunday:
Unlike Catholics who believe that church doctrine should adapt to changing times and needs, the Santorums believe in a highly traditional Catholicism that adheres fully to what scholars call "the teaching authority" of the pope and his bishops. "He has a strong sense of that," said George Weigel, a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington, where Mr. Santorum had a fellowship after losing his bid for re-election to the Senate in 2006. "He's the first national figure of some significance who's on that side of the Catholic conversation." The Santorums' beliefs are reflected in a succession of lifestyle decisions, including eschewing birth control, home schooling their younger children and sending the older boys to a private academy affiliated with Opus Dei, an influential Catholic movement that emphasizes spiritual holiness.
I don't question the sincerity of Santorum's spiritual journey and have little doubt that he takes his personal faith seriously. But home-schooling your children and denouncing birth control isn't enough to qualify you as an orthodox Catholic. The "teaching authority of popes and bishops" also has a lot to say about the "idolatry" of the free market, the "intrinsic evil" of torture, the positive role of government and a consistent ethic of life principle that doesn't reduce Catholicism to bumper-sticker platitudes on a few divisive social issues.

Many U.S. companies are familiar with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 ("FCPA"), which imposes criminal and civil liability for bribery of foreign government officials, as well as other potential liabilities. Many U.S. companies have responded to increased enforcement of the FCPA by putting in place procedures and policiesmeant to monitor compliance and minimize the likelihood of a violation. The United Kingdom has recently introduced an anti-bribery law even more rigorous than the FCPA with criminal and civil enforcement, which will be enforced starting April 2011. The U.K.Bribery Act of 2010 is not only strict, it also has wide territorial application. Because the U.K. Bribery Act applies to U.S. companies that conduct business in the U.K., many U.S. companies will be forced to address compliance with this law.
The U.K.'s Bribery Act of 2010 replaces the U.K.'s previous anti-bribery laws, including the Prevention of Corruption Acts of 1889-1916. The U.K. Bribery Act makes it an offense to both offer and to receive a bribe. A person may have liability for offering or receiving a bribe even if the bribery does not take place in the U.K., and even if the function of the bribe has no connection to the U.K. The Act requires only that the person committing the bribery has a "close connection" to the U.K. The definition of persons with a close connection to the U.K. includes British citizens, British nationals living overseas, persons that are ordinarily resident in the U.K., and companies incorporated under the laws of the U.K.

The level of respect teams had for BH-BL was already on the rise since last year, when the Spartans went on a four-game Suburban Council winning streak and reached the Sectional final for the second time in the program's short history.
"With some of the things we did last year I definitely think we earned some respect," said Schwan. "And unlike last year, I think teams are looking at us as being a program with a lot of upside and deserving of more respect."
It helps that this year's BH-BL team is loaded with veteran talent. Lewek " who had five goals and four assists against Queensbury " is part of a talented midfield group with fellow seniors Evan Nusbaum and Nucci Lauria. Junior Trevor Hiss and sophomores Tom Kenneally and Billy Chapman make up the primary attack line, while junior Chase Godfrey and seniors Alex Stewart and Marc Cerrone anchor the defense.
The Spartans face Ballston Spa Thursday in a Suburban Council game and meet Scotia-Glenville Saturday.
"We're definitely going to have an idea of where we're at by the end of the week," said Schwan.""
