Lindsay Lohan is days away from having some of her prized possessions auctioned off thanks to a hefty unpaid storage fee.
According to TMZ the actress is close to having 'expensive designer clothes, family heirlooms and potentially embarrassing items' up for grabs, as she hasn't forked out roughly $16,000 to the storage company.
Financially Lindsay is supposedly in dire straits with IRS freezing her bank accounts due to unpaid taxes and the storage account is now delinquent, meaning the locker can't be opened until the balance is paid in full.
Imagine that, if Lindsay can't pay up, she can't even remove embarrassing items before it's auctioned which means who knows what kind of stuff will be unearthed?
Hopefully one of her friends or family will be on hand to come to her help before Christmas but so far there haven't been any takers.
The storage woe may be the least of her worries as her probation was recently revoked so a hearing on January 15th will determine if she's gonna face the best part of a year in jail.

Taxes to be determined by the people of Scotland
SNP MSP Mark McDonald has welcomed today's Scottish Government announcement of the establishment of Revenue Scotland, following the devolution of some taxation powers to the Scottish Parliament in the Scotland Act 2012.
The new agency will collect tax more efficiently than Westminster and deliver significant savings to the public purse and - most importantly - decisions on the future of Scotland's taxes will be made by the people of Scotland.
Mr McDonald, SNP MSP for North East Scotland and member of the Scottish Parliament's Finance Committee, said:
"This is a hugely significant day for the Scottish Parliament. Although the fiscal powers devolved in the Scotland Act fall way short of what is required, the establishment of Revenue Scotland to oversee these means that, for the first time, the decisions surrounding those taxes will be taken by those who care about Scotland most – the people of Scotland.
"Revenue Scotland and Registers of Scotland will deliver a service of tax collection that is more efficient and better value for money, with savings of millions of pounds for the public purse.
"The SNP Government is saving the Scottish taxpayer money with efficient collection and treating the taxpayer fairly with a move to progressive taxation. No one likes the current system of stamp duty and the Scottish Government is right to get rid of it. Just imagine what we could achieve if all of the taxes collected in Scotland were being used to the benefit of Scotland.
"It is only right that the people of Scotland determine their own taxes and I would encourage as many people as possible to take part in the consultation on the proposed Land and Building Transaction Tax.
"It is deeply disappointing that the opposition parties could not find a way to welcome a move to progressive taxation that will help those at the lower end of the market, save the taxpayer money and put the powers parliament has to good use.
"What Scotland needs is the full powers of independence to help us fully make Scotland more successful and improve the lives of the people who live here."

En Español | Q. If you see that someone's cheating Social Security, what can you do about it?
A. You can report it to the Social Security Administration's Office of the Inspector General (OIG).
You can make your report in one of several ways:
Online: Go to this SSA Web page.
Phone: 800-269-0271 (TTY: 866-501-2101 toll-free for deaf or hard of hearing)
Fax: 410-597-0118
Mail: Social Security Fraud Hotline
P.O. Box 17785
Baltimore, MD, 21235-7785
The OIG investigates people suspected of obtaining or using Social Security benefits to which they are not entitled. For example, this includes people who:
- Receive disability benefits but conceal their work.
- Receive Social Security for a child, even though the child is not under their care.
- Fail to notify SSA of the death of a beneficiary and continue to receive and cash the checks of the deceased.
- Conceal assets while receiving payments under the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program.
From Oct. 1, 2011, to March 31, 2012, the OIG received 63,368 allegations of various kinds of wrongdoing. As a result, investigators opened 3,969 cases, which resulted in 703 criminal convictions. In some cases, that meant jail time.
One case involved an Oregon woman who concealed the fact that her father had died. For 26 years, she received monthly Social Security, federal and military benefits intended for her father. After the woman pled guilty to the theft of government property, she was sentenced to 18 months in prison and ordered to pay restitution of $95,000 to Social Security, $302,000 to the Office of Personnel Management and $405,000 to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service.

ARROYO GRANDE, Calif. (MarketWatch) -- "Beware the beast Man, for he is the Devil's pawn:" Cornelius the anthropologist is reading aloud from the ancient Sacred Scrolls of the Apes: "Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed." Sound familiar? The scene is on the mythical "Planet of the Apes," probably in the great Wall Street Jungle.
Cornelius continues reading from the Scrolls: "Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death." Yes, evolution has reversed: Apes, Gorillas, Orangutans and Chimps rule. Our brilliant brains sabotaged us, knocked us out of our rightful place at the top of the jungle's food chain.
Fiction? Or a disturbing metaphor of today's reality? Evidence is everywhere:
The slow agonizing collapse of America's economy and markets, with the endless write-offs, bankruptcies, foreclosures and the humiliation of clueless leaders still trying to stem the tide by sticking their little fingers in the cheap-dollar dike with one-after-another photo-op moments spouting more of the same magical thinking that got us in this mess, while promising us they'll stop the inevitable recession from doing what comes naturally in every economic downturn.
Yes, this silly predictable drama unfolding in Washington and Wall Street reminds me of the "Planet of the Apes" films.
Unfortunately, in the bull market of recent years, the wisdom of the ages written in America's "scrolls" was totally lost on our so-called leaders. In bull markets our greedy business and financial leaders and their doting minions simply deny comparisons of their fantasy world to the primitive jungles on the "Planet of the Apes."
But here is what the "Beasts" have wrought: A credit meltdown, a growling bear and a nasty recession.
Nobel economist does 'Planet of the Apes' cameo
This insane drama also reminds me all too much of the revolutionary insights in the brave new world of neuroeconomics, behavioral finance, investment psychology and the 'science of irrationality.' For 210 years, from 1792 when the NYSE was formed under the Buttonwood Tree by a small band of New York brokers, until 2002 when Daniel Kahneman, a Princeton psychologist, won the Nobel Prize in economics, the market was held together by the theory of the "rational investor."
But in 2002, Kahneman destroyed 210 years of bad drama with his revolutionary "irrational investor" theory. It was as if Kahneman was doing a cameo on the "Planet of the Apes," questioning their theories about investors and forcing one of Cornelius' scientific buddies to retort:
"Experimental brain surgery on these creatures is one thing, and I'm all in favor of it. But your behavior studies are another matter. To suggest that we can learn anything about the simian nature from a study of man is sheer nonsense. Why, man is a nuisance. He eats up his food supply in the forest, then migrates to our green belts and ravages our crops. The sooner he is exterminated, the better. It's a question of simian survival."
As University of Chicago Professor Richard Thaler put it in his classic, "Advances in Behavioral Finance II," Wall Street insiders can only get rich playing the market if the market is populated by "investors who are irrational, woefully uninformed, endowed with strange preferences, or for some other reason willing to hold overpriced assets."
In short, you have been investing not in a market intelligently-designed for "rational investors," but in a cleverly designed fantasy world in which Wall Street's programmed our brains to "see" ourselves as "rational investors," when we are, in fact, actually living in a jungle on the real Planet of the Apes. Get it?
You are an irrational humanoid investor brainwashed to believe you are rational, held captive in a mental cage, and manipulated by the primates running this the new Planet of the Apes, like a holographic video game.
25 rulers on your Planet of the Apes
Seriously, take a close look at the following lists of all the interrelated species running your world. Then tell us, how many of them have you seen recently in the news, on television or even in person? Most likely you'll recognize many of them, if not all:
- Giant Apes. Capitalists ruling the Jungle through asset management
- Orangutans. Puppet leaders in power positions, yet controlled by Apes
- Gorillas. Enforcers whose brute strength protects the Apes power
- Chimpanzees. Masses of workers manipulated like the Humanoids
- Flying Monkeys. New high-tech species immigrated from Land of Oz
Now, here's the key in this exercise. If you think any one of the 25 species listed below is directly or indirectly skimming from your investment returns and income, add 4 points to your total. Suggestion: First print a copy of this column so you can pencil in the scores. Then add them up (25 skimming primates times 4 points each = 100 maximum), and add a comment about the results:
Giant Apes: Kings of the Jungle
1. Wall Street investment bankers. Megabonuses amid firings, huge write-offs
2. Mutual fund company owners. Yale manager: "investors lose, managers win"
3. Fund company portfolio managers. Even losers paid $400,000+ annually

Coal miner crushed to death at W.Va. mine
CHARLESTON, W.Va. - CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - West Virginia officials say a miner has died after being crushed between a piece of heavy equipment and a block of coal.
State mine office spokeswoman Jama Jarrett says the 28-year-old man died late Friday morning in surgery after the accident late Thursday night.
Jarrett says state investigators are at International Coal Group's Beckley mining complex in Raleigh County.
ICG says the mine was idled Friday out of respect to the victim and his family. The company says its officials are working with state and federal regulators on the investigation.
The accident comes less than a month after 29 West Virginia miners died in an explosion at a Massey Energy Co. mine. It was the nation's worst coal mining disaster in 40 years.

House begins debating payroll tax cut

WASHINGTON (AP) — With neither side showing signs of yielding, a bitterly divided House debated a Republican effort Tuesday to force the Senate to negotiate a payroll tax cut and jobless benefits that expire on New Year's Day.
The GOP-run House planned a vote on rejecting a two-month extension of the tax cut and unemployment benefits that the Senate passed last weekend with a bipartisan landslide. They were also ready to vote to formally request the Senate to begin fresh talks on the legislation.
The Democratic-led Senate left town on Saturday after approving its version of the bill. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has said he won't renew bargaining until the House approves the Senate's short-term measure.
Without an agreement, payroll taxes paid by 160 million workers and jobless benefits that support millions of the long-term unemployed will expire Jan. 1. With their cherished holiday recess being shortened each day the battle rages, each side the blamed the other for the impasse.
"If you say you want to do this for a year, put your vote where your rhetoric is," said Rep. Jeb Hensarling of Texas, a member of the House GOP leadership. "If you're not willing to work over the holidays, admit to the American people that you're not willing to work over the holidays."

Closing arguments are all that's left in trial of Richland nanny
TRI-CITIES, Wash. -- The jury could have the case tomorrow in the trial of a Richland nanny accused of killing a child in her care. The defensesurprised the court when it wrapped this morning after three days of presenting its case.
You may remember it took months for Kelli Jacobsen to even go to trial because her defense attorney wanted time for its own child abuse experts to finish reports. They hoped to refute evidence Ryder Morrison was chronically abused., but those reports never made it into court.
One of the final witnesses to speak today was a Richland detective.
The defense wants to show Ryder Morrison's mom was reckless in setting him on kitchen counters.
It's going towards the theory that the one-year-old's injuries could have happen the night before he died -- not minutes before. The defense questioned why kitchen counter measurements weren't given to the emergency room doctors.
Investigators insist there was no reason to focus on the kitchen. It hadn't been called into question during the investigation.
The state cross-examined the final defense witness.
Allison Taylor is a private investigator hired by Kelli Jacobsen's team. She took notes from doctors at the hospital.
The prosecution wanted it to look like she wasn't thorough.
Closing arguments in the aggravated manslaughter trial should begin Tuesday. It will then go to the jury for deliberation.

Tepco President Rebuked by Rescue Fund Chief on Rate Hike
Tokyo Electric Power Co. President Toshio Nishizawa was rebuked by the head of a government rescue fund over an increase in electricity rates as he sought approval for more aid to cover compensation for the Fukushima disaster.
Kazuhiko Shimokobe, the head of the steering committee of the government-backed Nuclear Damage Liability Facilitation Fund, told Nishizawa it was "regrettable" that the utility didn't explain details of its electricity rate increase plan before it made the announcement on Jan. 17. Nishizawa apologized and asked the fund's officials to approve the utility's request for further aid.
The utility known as Tepco requested on Dec. 27 689.4 billion yen ($9 billion) in extra aid as it has been relying on government support to avoid insolvency. Tepco may face 4.5 trillion yen in compensation payments by 2013 after the March 11 quake and tsunami caused meltdowns and radiation release at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear station.
Officials of the fund approved the utility's request for further aid at the end of today's closed meeting, Tepco said in a statement. The request was then submitted to Trade and Industry Minister Yukio Edano, it said.
Tepco plans to raise electricity rates for corporate customers by an average of 17 percent from April to cover rising fuel costs to run thermal plants.

Dr. Emma Childs is a Visiting Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry, and Director of The Human Addiction Psychopharmacology laboratory. Dr Childs' research is dedicated to improving our understanding of addictive disorders. One of her primary areas of interest is studying how powerful associations are formed between abused drugs and the people, places and paraphernalia surrounding drug use (i.e., cues). These links are especially persistent in drug addicted individuals and represent a major barrier to the successful treatment of addiction because they can trigger relapse even after long periods of abstinence. Other areas of interest include individual factors that contribute to substance abuse and dependence. For example, genetic, personality, environmental (including stress) and physiological (including sex) factors can all influence an individual's risk to develop a substance use disorder.
Dr. Childs received her Ph.D. in Behavioral Pharmacology from King's College London, UK. She then completed post-doctoral training with Professor Harriet de Wit at the University of Chicago, subsequently becoming a junior member of faculty in the Department of Psychiatry. Recently, she joined the UIC Department of Psychiatry and is currently funded by grants awarded by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).

The Psychiatric Institute
The goals of the Psychiatric Institute (PI), which is directed by Dr. Alessandro Guidotti, are to investigate the role of epigenetic mechanisms in regulating neuronal gene expression in the brain. The reversible modulation of gene function mediated through changes in DNA methylation and histone modifications is tightly regulated and is responsible for coordinating neuronal structure and function during development and in the adult. The programmatic focus is to examine DNA methylation marks and histone modifications as related to altered transcription profiles of sets of genes in the course of schizophrenia and autism. At a recent Society for Neuroscience Symposium lecture, Dr. Dennis R. Grayson, spoke about his ongoing efforts in studying DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation patterns in DNA from post-mortem cerebella from autism spectrum disorder subjects. In addition to the use of post-mortem brain specimens, researchers at the PI, including Drs. Erbo Dong and James Auta, are studying the effects of prenatal stress in animals as a means of modeling psychiatric behaviors in rodents. Collectively, we are investigating mechanisms by which psychiatrists may be able to reverse altered gene expression programs in the brain through the development of new pharmaceutical strategies. Another program being explored by Drs. Rajiv P. Sharma and John M. Davis involves examining DNA methylation of schizophrenia and non-psychiatric subjects for the presence of epigenetic biomarkers that may be useful in detecting schizophrenia at early stages of the disorder. The hope is to use this information for the development of hypothesis-designed pharmaceuticals aimed at altering chromatin structure.
In addition to the above studies, research at the PI includes studies of basic aspects of neuronal function and neuronal circuitry in vitro and in vivo. Dr. John Larson studies the cellular and molecular mechanisms of memory formation. Dr. Neil Smalheiser is examining endogenous siRNAs and noncoding RNA-derived small RNAs expressed in adult mouse hippocampus. Dr. Graziano Pinna investigates mouse models of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); investigating the mechanism of action of antidepressants. Dr. Lech Kiedrowski studies intracellular zinc homeostasis in hippocampal neurons. Dr. Ghanshyam Pandey, Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Director of Mood Disorders and Suicide Research, is also a member of the PI and he makes a significant contribution in research related to depression, bipolar illness, and suicide.

10 years later: Family never far from reminders of first Oklahoman killed in Iraq War
Tommy's older brother also tried to move on quickly. He said it helped that he could lean on his fellow Marines.
"I had small children," he said. "I could not go into a long depressing funk and still be a good dad to them."
The loss was tougher on the boys' mother. Nancy and Al Blair Jr. divorced when Tommy was 4. Al Blair moved to Arkansas while Nancy stayed in Broken Arrow.
Al Blair III said he did his best to protect his mother. He handled media calls and acted as a family representative whenever he could. Nancy Blair declined to be interviewed for this story.
"I was coping differently than she did," he said. "It can be difficult. She didn't understand how I was handling it. I had some difficulty understanding where she was coming from on some things. You just have to come to a middle point and accept that everyone is going to handle things a little differently."
A Reserve detachment of Marines in Broken Arrow helped tremendously, Al Blair III said. They adopted Nancy Blair, looking out for her and offering support at every turn. She still brings them cookies from time to time.
"Being around other Marines kind of helped her a little bit," he said. "You have to surround yourself with people you care about."
Trying to save lives
Getting answers about what happened to Tommy Blair also helped, family members said.
The Marines sent Al Blair Jr. two binders full of pictures and other evidence detailing what happened that day.
A forward air controller mistakenly believed the enemy had taken over the armored vehicle that Blair loaded the wounded Marines into. He called in an air strike.
No one knows for certain whether Blair or the other Marines were alive when the Maverick missile blew up the vehicle. It also was hit by tremendous enemy fire, which Al Blair Jr. said he thinks took his son's life before the friendly fire incident.
Both father and brother said they don't blame the forward air-controller faulted in the report.
"If I were to meet him, I would probably shake his hand and give him a hug," Al Blair III said. "I cannot fault him for doing what he did. He was trying to save lives. They were against a much larger force."
Holding on
Making peace or moving on doesn't mean forgetting. Al Blair III keeps Tommy's dog tags in his breast pocket when he attends any function in his dress blues.
Al Blair Jr. is never far from a reminder of his younger son, whether it is the pictures that cover the walls of his home or the banner on his front door with two stars — a blue one representing Al Blair III and a gold one representing Tommy.
"I catch myself remembering I need to not spend so much time dwelling on Tommy's loss and remember I still have a son," Al Blair Jr. said. "The whole world is not gone."

In-depth info by local experts for job seekers and workers.
Don't forget to interview the company and hiring manager
Most people believe job interviews are about candidates proving they're the best fit for the position. As a former hiring manager turned career coach, I think it's actually a two-way street, because they're also about candidates making sure the company (and manager) will be a good fit for them.
When you go on an interview, are you interviewing the company? If not, maybe it's time you started.
Going into an interview realizing that you (the job seeker) need to make sure the company and hiring manager will be a good fit for you can also help reduce some of the typical interview jitters and nervousness. That's because it requires you to focus on observing things, which helps keep your emotions in check and forces you to think rationally about what you're seeing (and hearing). Try these tips:
Observe your surroundings. From the time you arrive, take mental notes of what you see and hear. What does the office space look like? Is it clean and neat? Is it formal or casual? Are the employees friendly and immediately helpful?
Observe the company culture. Once you're inside, take a look at the office culture. Do employees look happy and hard-working? Are they dressed casually or in business attire? Is the work environment open cubicles or offices with doors? Is the office quiet or fairly loud?
Observe the hiring managers. Are they prepared for your interview? How do they act when they greet you? If they walk you from the lobby to their office or a conference room, how do they behave when passing other employees? Are they prepared with a list of questions? Do they have your resume and the job description handy?
Jot down some notes. Go somewhere right after your interview, such as a coffee shop, and write down everything you can remember about the interview. For example, what did you observe about the office? The employees? The hiring manager? What questions were you asked during your interview? Based on what you saw (and heard), how would you describe the company culture?
Evaluate your observations. Go through your notes and consider what you saw and heard. Does your personal style fit well with the company and hiring manager? Are there any potential issues that stand out? Can you picture yourself working at that company? For that manager?
Reviewing your answers will give you a good idea whether the company and hiring manager would be a good fit for you. Taking the time for observation and evaluation will help you make better choices as you consider your job opportunities.

The Oklahoma City skyline is set to grow again with plans set to build a high-rise tower topping 20 stories on the current site of the long-troubled Stage Center theater.
Downtown Oklahoma City to get new tower
Rainey Williams, president of Kestrel Investments, is set to buy the 3.15-acre property Friday morning from the Kirkpatrick Center Affiliated Fund of The Oklahoma City Community Foundation for $4.275 million.
The tower, which will front the Myriad Gardens to the east and the new John W. Rex Elementary to the west, will likely include retail on the ground floor and space for an anchor tenant and potentially other occupants on the remaining floors.
Williams said that the tower does not have a lease signed yet with an anchor tenant, but that negotiations are ongoing. Williams also could not say whether he might seek tax increment financing or other public funding to assist in the development of the tower or an adjoining parking garage.
"Our goal is to in 90 days be able to announce the anchor tenant and release the preliminary site design work," Williams said. "We are very excited to announce our plans for this property, which we think has tremendous potential."
Stage Center demise
Williams, a lifelong Oklahoma City resident, acknowledged the development is being pursued at the expense of a property he knows is treasured by the architectural and preservation communities.
Stage Center closed after it was damaged by extensive flooding in June 2010. The building was designed by the late John Johanson, an architect who studied with Frank Lloyd Wright. The building is designed "inside out," and won accolades in the international architecture world and is featured in architectural textbooks.
The Oklahoma City Community Foundation gave the Central Oklahoma Chapter of the American Institute of Architects five months to find a buyer able to acquire and renovate the theater. That effort failed to result in any parties stepping forward that had financing for any rescue effort.
Williams said he would not have been interested in redeveloping the site had the foundation not completed extensive studies on preserving the theater and allowed the architecture community a chance to find a party that could renovate the landmark.
The theater is in worse shape than it was three years ago due to the theft of wiring and more flooding that occurred on May 31.
"As a native of Oklahoma City, I personally put a great deal of thought into the property and the Stage Center facility, and unfortunately, it's just not a usable space," Williams said. "Removal of Stage Center is simply the next logical step in the evolution of making this property usable again. There is a well-defined process to remove the structure, and we will work with the city to make sure we follow all the necessary steps to obtain approval and safely remove it from the property."
The announcement is a sad turn for civic leader Jim Tolbert, who spent 35 years overseeing efforts to keep the theater open. One of the auditoriums was named in honor of his mother, Mary Noble Tolbert, and Tolbert personally hosted a return of Johanson for a return visit in 2008.
"I think it's a tragic loss the community," Tolbert said. "It's a loss of a very architecturally significant statement. It's a very interesting performing arts space we don't have enough of. I've done a lot, I've participated in a lot of efforts to find a financial solution, and I'm disappointed that wasn't possible."
Stage Center's legacy, Tolbert said, is that it fostered the growth of a thriving theater community while exposing the city to the creative potential of good design.
Tolbert said he hopes the Downtown Design Review Committee, which must approve the demolition before a permit is issued, will thoroughly review the demolition application, ensure the project is viable and has a tenant lineup that will ensure the project is completed.
Williams promised he will not pursue a demolition permit without an anchor tenant tied to the development.
Impact on Festival of the Arts
Williams also said he will be sensitive to the needs of the annual Festival of the Arts, which uses the adjoining former Central Fire Station complex for its food and entertainment plaza during its annual spring event.

BARANGAY Carmen in Cagayan de Oro City has "very strong" cases of child pornography according to an officer of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) in Northern Mindanao Region.
Unit head of DSWD's community based programs, Gloria Mosqueda, said even the barangay officials of Carmen reported that children are being used as materials for pornography.
"The village council members know the situation -- there are child trafficking and pornography cases reported in the area," said Mosqueda.
She said in Carmen, just by mere exposure of (private parts) in video cameras online, the actors of child pornography can generate money.
Mosqueda said two Carmen village officials reported the said pornography in an activity at the Department of Labor and Employment (Dole) where issues and concerns on child labor were tackled sometime in the last quarter of 2013.
However, Sheila Lumbatan, barangay secretary of Carmen, told Sun.Star Cagayan de Oro that there were no reported cases of child pornography in the village.
"But we have records of child abuse though," added Lumbatan.
However, Lumbatan did not discount the possibility that child pornography could be happening in Carmen.
Lumbatan also thought that if such activities are happening in the village it must have been done privately.
"The police officers can hardly detect these cases because they are done inside the houses," said Mosqueda.
She said some parents would consent their children to pornography to earn.
Nida Paña, social welfare officer IV of the city social welfare and development (CSWD), confirmed that some couples allow this to happen for income.
She heard that some parents are aware but they are not directly involved in child trafficking or pornography online.
Mosqueda also believes that operators of child pornography have links abroad since most of the customers are foreigners.
"It is possible that there are organized activities on child pornography and there are some that operate privately in their homes," said Mosqueda.
Paña added they are only limited to "hearsays" because there is no way to prove the cases.
Mosqueda said that in the region there are very limited cases that were reported in DSWD.
She added that cases of child pornography are often associated with child trafficking based on their records.
Mosqueda furthered there was a case before where the victims came from Gingoog City but were apprehended in Butuan City. There was also a case recorded in Ozamiz city.
Paña also said there are cases of child trafficking five years ago.

BitTorrent released a new update for the beta build of uTorrent 3.3. The developer included a brief set of repairs in this revision and made a couple of changes.
The problems with metadata taking too long to download should now be eliminated and the time necessary to flush disk jobs has been reduced.
Another repair available in this build refers to the installer defaulting to existing path if present.
As far as the changes are concerned, the developer has removed the Labels page from preferences. This modification, however, is not permanent and it will be re-included in the application by version 3.4.
Furthermore, the RSS feeds are sorted alphabetically.
uTorrent 3.3 represents a milestone in the development of the program because of major parts being re-written. Among these is disk I/O, a move designed to improve overall performance of the application.

NIVEA FOR MEN DEODORANT SENSITIVE PROTECT Spray with chamomile extracts offers you the real confidence of effective 48h regulation of perspiration, anti-irritation. The optimal combination of reliable antiperspirant protection and NIVEA's mild care. 48h effective regulation of perspiration, anti-irritation. Perspiration is vital for our bodies: We regulate our body temperature by the evaporation of perspiration from the surface of the skin. In addition to sweat glands all over the body there are special sweat pores in the underarm, facial and genital regions. The production of specific perspiration from these pores is hormonally and emotionally controlled, e.g. by the production of adrenalin in a state of fright, pain or physical exercise. A product which only prevents body odor is called a deodorant. Deodorant products can be antibacterial and mask odours with fragrances. A product which reduce perspiration (sweating) is called an antiperspirant (AP). Antiperspirants are also effective as deodorants as bacteria growth is inhibited due to a lower pH and less moisture.

Jersey Shore's Vinny Pranks Snooki
The prank war is on at the Jersey Shore house!
On Thursday's all-new episode, Vinny Guadagnino, Deena Cortese and Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi try to one-up each other in a practical joke war that leaves Guadagnino with a face full of cake after a food fight.
PHOTOS: Wackiest Jersey Shore moments of all time
So how does Guadagnino strike back?
"I [took] Snooki's most prized possession -- the [stuffed] crocodile she sleeps with every night," he says in an exclusive sneak peek from Thursday's show.
While Snooki is out of sight, her roomie hoists the crocodile over the Seaside Heights, N.J. house they share and hangs him by a rope.

Natural Moisturizing Face Sunscreen Tinted SPF 30 is a tinted version of Suntegrity's Natural Moisturizing Face Sunscreen & Primer SPF 30, but this version is available in five shades, including options for light to deep skin tones. This exceptionally moisturizing formula is best for dry to very dry skin not prone to breakouts, as well as for sensitive (including rosacea) skin. It also includes a nice array of antioxidants. The sole active ingredient—20% zinc oxide—certainly supplies UVA/UVB protection. However, unlike the Natural Moisturizing Face Sunscreen & Primer SPF 30, this version does not include the skin-sensitizing fragrant citrus oils, earning it a Beautypedia BEST.
If you've been searching for a mineral sunscreen that's extra moisturizing, this is certainly an option to consider due to its super-rich blend of emollients (coconut extract and jojoba and sunflower oils) along with a mix of plant-based fatty acids. We should note that due to the richness of the formula, it's quite thick and has an initially greasy feel on the skin, but this dissipates within minutes.
Suntegrity added a tint to counter the rather prominent white cast inherent in a product that contains 20% zinc oxide. The shades are mostly workable due to their sheer coverage, but you may find the shade names a bit of a mismatch—they tend to be darker than you may think based on the shade names.
The Fair shade isn't the best choice for a truly fair skin tone; it's actually good for skin 1–2 tones deeper than what the industry commonly refers to as a fair skin tone. However, it might be a good choice for those with a light skin tone. Suntegrity's Light shade is slightly orange, and best for those with light to medium complexions. Deep Bronze is one of the few all-mineral tinted moisturizers for deep skin tones that won't appear gray or ashen.
Fortunately, if you're unsure which shade would be best for you, Suntegrity offers a generous sample option for just a few dollars, so you can experiment to find the right match.
Suntegrity claims this formula offers coverage, but don't expect this to conceal any type of discoloration or uneven skin tone (but that's a minor quibble). However, there is enough of a tint here that it will rub off on clothing, so you'll need to apply a non-tinted sunscreen for your neck and chest area, assuming those areas will be exposed to the sun and coming into contact with clothing.
Suntegrity refers to this as a "UV chemical-free" sunscreen, which is nonsense, as everything on Earth is a chemical or made up of chemicals (water, plants, rocks—they're all chemicals). Mineral actives are certainly made up of chemicals, so the whole "chemical-free" claim is merely scare mongering, nothing more. Chemicals are not bad!
Suntegrity portrays ingredients like cetyl dimethicone on their ingredient list as being "mineral-based." Technically, all silicones are engineered from the mineral silica (sand), but what comes out of that engineering process is anything but natural.
An all in one, "UV Chemical-Free" Tinted Sunscreen/Beauty Benefit (BB) cream that treats, hydrates, protects, primes and covers the skin. Supercharged with youth promoting antioxidants that help to scavenge surface free radicals, this cream also provides mineral Broad Spectrum SPF 30 protection.
Active Ingredient: Zinc-Oxide 20%. Inactive Ingredients: Aloe Barbadensis (Organic Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice, Capric Caprylic Triglycerides (Coconut Oil Extract), Water (Aqua), Sorbitan Stearate (Plant Derived), Glyceryl Stearate (Plant Derived), Polyglyceryl-4 Isostearate (Plant Derived), Hexyl Laurate (Plant Derived), Simmondsia Chinensis (Organic Jojoba) Seed Oil, Cetyl Dimethicone (Mineral Derived), Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt), Helianthus Annuus (Organic Sunflower) Seed Oil, Cucumis Sativus (Organic Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Astaxanthin (Algae Source), Hyaluronic Acid (Plant Derived), Chlorella Emersonii (Red Algae) Extract, Camellia Sinensis (Organic Green Tea) Extract, Punica Granatum (Organic Pomegranate) Seed Oil, Polyaminopropyl Biguanide, Ethylhexylglycerin, Iron Oxide.
Strengths:All of the sunscreens contain UVA/UVB mineral-based protection; packaged to protect their light- and air-sensitive ingredients; a few excellent formulas for dry to very dry and sensitive skin.
Weaknesses: Many of their sunscreens contain a potent blend of sensitizing fragrance oils (negating their "non-irritating" claim); marketing language resorts to unsubstantiated scare tactics to promote their products (i.e., claiming that other brands use toxic ingredients); makes misleading "natural" claims because their products absolutely do include synthetic ingredients.
Created by aesthetician Tricia Trimble, Suntegrity is a relatively small collection of products focused on mineral (zinc oxide)–based sunscreen formulas. According to Trimble, she developed the Suntegrity line out of the desire to create sunscreens that appeal to those who traditionally don't like to wear sun protection, due either to their aesthetics or other qualities. That's certainly a commendable goal!
Unfortunately, these noble intentions are wrapped up in a lot of misinformation that's intended to make these products seem safer than other options, which is not the case at all. For example, Suntegrity makes a great deal about their products being "natural," which they are not; they contain many "unnatural" ingredients. They describe certain ingredients as being plant or mineral derived, but that doesn't make them natural in the least.
For the record, we have nothing against any ingredient—natural or synthetic—as long as it is good for the skin. But, there isn't anything special about a natural ingredient that makes it automatically better for the skin than a synthetic ingredient. In fact, many natural ingredients are extremely damaging to the skin, and some are phototoxic, which means they cause even more damage when they are applied and then the skin is exposed to the sun.
What we do take issue with are beauty brands that use scare tactics to sell the notion that their natural products are good and that everyone else's products are bad because they contain synthetic ingredients. This is especially obnoxious when a company, like Suntegrity, makes products that do include synthetic ingredients. Their products are not "chemical-free" as they state; in fact, everything on a cosmetic ingredient label is technically a chemical, including water.
We're always so disappointed to see such needless twisting of the facts; brands should just rely on the quality of their products to speak for themselves, but we know that's not going to happen any time soon.
When we evaluate the potential benefit or potential harm of any ingredient, we always consider what the peer-reviewed, published research demonstrates as fact—whether an ingredient is natural or not isn't relevant in determining whether it's helpful for the skin.
It's ironic, and so frustrating, that many of Suntegrity's formulas would have been excellent options had they not included citrus oils, which have strong potential to irritate skin and cause phototoxic reactions. Suntegrity doesn't address the fact that the ingredients they demonize, like mineral oil and sulfates, have plenty of research demonstrating their safety and effectiveness in cosmetics formulas, while the fragrant ingredients Suntegrity includes in their products (such as grapefruit, tangerine, and orange oils) are well documented for their potential to provoke sensitizing and allergenic reactions (Source: www.naturaldatabase.com).
If you look past the Suntegrity products that contain citrus oils (and you should), you will find that they have a few truly excellent mineral-based sunscreens for dry to very dry skin (an area of the market that's largely lacking; it's tough to find a truly emollient mineral sunscreen). If Suntegrity had left the fragrance out of all of their formulas, they would have a lineup of BEST-rated sunscreens; we might even overlook their scare tactic marketing approach.
It's worth noting that Suntegrity's body sunscreens are nearly exact duplicates of their facial formulas, but their body formulas cost only about half as much for twice the amount of product. Suntegrity appears to use a few rather, what we call, "slippery" techniques to make this fact less obvious, and we point these out in the relevant reviews. All told, we wish we were as impressed with this brand's approach to sunscreen marketing as we were with some of their products. In a perfect world, such misinformation wouldn't be perpetuated, and we could focus on what's most important for skin health: Protecting it from sun damage.

I have 44 year old dry, olive toned skin that is extremely prone to hyperpigmentation. Ive finally found a moisturizing product with a high concentration of zinc oxide, that doesn't leave me looking like a circus clown! Golden light works well for me, and I always dispense onto the back of my hand first, using my finger to make sure the ingredients are well blended, as it does tend to separate. The downside is definitely the price.
This stuff clinged on my face(no dry patches) in SUMMER like nothing else would do. No matter how good I primed my skin or the skin condition. After trying it in sample size, I immediately threw it away.
The review states that the shade "fair" is not fair enough for truly fair skin, but I have found this to not be true. I am as fair as fair gets (it is rare for me to find any product fair enough for me) and this shade is very very fair--it blends in perfectly. It's a very neutral shade as well. The fact that it is actually pale enough is actually the reason I use this product over others.
I agree with Katherine. I struggled for the last two years to find a good mineral sunscreen that is MOISTURING enough... they are all drying. I live in Europe and, although to ship it here cost me a fortune, its worth it.
I read about this on Dr. Cynthia Bailey's web site, she also gave it great reviews and I was hot to give it a try. I have to say Paula says it all in this review; it's orange, it's oily-greasy, it stains your clothes, and it's very pricy. I don't understand the science of it all, tho Paula's review says a lot, but being a women that cares what I look like out on the golf course or really anywhere, I do not like this stuff and am very sorry I spent the money on it.
As someone with sensitive, dry skin, I couldn't find a broadband sunscreen that worked for me. Chemical sunscreens irritated my skin and mineral ones were too drying (even PC's SR one with moisturizer layered underneath!). This is the first product that is non-irritating and moisturizing enough for my face, plus the fair shade isn't too yellow for my porcelain skin.

The National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) announced last week that it had struck a deal with YouTube on behalf of independent music publishers. Publishers have from now until January 16 to opt into a direct license agreement with the online video service by going here.
Billboard reported last week that the details of the deal involve, among other things, YouTube advancing $4 million for publishing royalties to cover user-generated YouTube videos that contain published songs. Publishers have to sign up for the YouTube license offer by that January 16 deadline to be considered for any portion of the advance.
Licensing and payments to publishers will be handled by the Harry Fox Agency (HFA) for a 7.5 percent fee. Advances will go out starting August 11, 2012, and end August 11, 2014. Payments will be doled out on a monthly basis with a 1.5 percent penalty if they're late. Those unaffiliated with HFA will have to show evidence of direct licensing income to file for royalty payments. Billboard also notes that there is no agreement over videos of live performance and suppose there will be negotiation with performance organization groups.

Few in the world of video game promotion can compare with Peter Molyneux, a visionary designer whose knack for making good games is surpassed only by his habit of making even better promises.
That so many of those promises end up more as hype than truth can be disappointing, but there's something to be said for Mr. Molyneux's passion for ideas and game design, something that appeals to the irrational optimist in all of us.
His latest bit of salesmanship comes by way of the upcoming Kinect exclusive, Fable: The Journey, a magic-filled RPG that's unique, how, Mr. Molyneux?
The unique thing about Fable the Journey is that we have chosen, because we as designers and makers of computer games love Kinect… to control the entire experience through Kinect and I think this has made people really confused, "…oh my god they are using Kinect, they can't possibly do a role playing game!" but no, I love the opportunities that Kinect give us.
On why he loves Kinect and feels limited by traditional control schemes:
More and More I am feeling controlled. I am feeling limited…. now we are in a box and we are monkeys singing to a tune and I'm just sick of it. I'm sick of it. I want the feeling of discovery the feeling that you get when you first picked up controllers when you first picked up mice. When you thought, "What if I did this?" When was the last time you said that in a game to yourself? "What if I did this?" That's what I want and that's what Kinect quite possibly can give us. What we are able to do is celebrate how different you are.
On finding the right balance in a tutorial:
Part of the joy is discovering how to do these things. How to use your body how to use arms and how to use your voice to interact with this experience and I hope that controlling a horse and carriage is obvious enough. That people will use their hands to snap the reigns.
I hate it when games over preach to me. I hate it when they tell me something so obvious. They take a lot of that fun away from it .
Now lets talk about walking, because that's a big problem. We have solved walking and navigating on foot in the most comfortable way but not quite the most obvious way. The way you walk around is this, if you walk forward you can lean left and right to change your direction. You'll be very relaxed, I mean you don't want to spill your beer after all. If you want to walk faster you just lean for forward if you want to walk slower you'll lean back.
On more animal-related emotion; equines as the new canines:
Suppose if we just say that the that's horse pulling you along unconditionally loves you, unconditionally loves you as a player and suppose with in the first fifteen minutes of playing that game we make people totally believe that? Then when you drive your horse on, when you crash into things, when you scrape the side of his leg against rocks, when you drive him into thorns and bushes and cause cuts on him… it won't be like a driving game where you just crash into things and then go drive on. I want you to feel that pain, the pain of your mistakes… and if you feel a moment of guilt then I have got an emotion from you and that's what this is all about. It's just about getting some emotions from you, about telling a story which means something about giving a game where you discover things. That's what we're trying to do.
On using voice recognition software and problems therein:
One of the first and most golden rules that we said about this experience with Fable the Journey with Kinect: You must feel comfortable. You mustn't feel embarrassed. You mustn't feel awkward.
What we realized is that 99.9% of people feel utterly embarrassed talking to a television set.
When he had the opportunity to think about voice recognition, to think about the ability for you to talk to characters in the world there's a few thoughts that came to me. Firstly, you're going to feel awkward and embarrassed. Secondly your not gonna really be quite sure what to say or how to say it, and thirdly we have all the problems with true voice recognition. All the problems that wonderful technology like Siri still hasn't solved and you have to solve it not 99% of the time. 100% of the time. With 100% of accents with 100% of human voices with all their emotion and with all their tiredness and all their excitement and until you can do that to a level where I don't feel awkward….I am not ready to use it. That's the honest answer.
I could watch the elegant Mr. Molyneux speak all day long. Here's to hoping his vision for Fable: The Journey is fully realized. The game is slated for a late 2012 release.
Here's the GT interview, btw, from which I've pulled the above quotes:

Winner of three Tony Awards, Urinetown is a hilarious musical satire of capitalism, politics, social revolution, and even musical theatre itself. In a not-to-distant future, a devastating drought has ravaged the world's water supply. Private toilets have become outlawed. Bladder bloated citizens must now "pay to pee" using the public amenities owned by the evil corporation U.G.C., or Urine Good Company. Can a few proletariat heroes overthrow the forces of corruption governing their lives and bodily needs? Come to the show to find out! And be sure to use the facilities beforehand!

"My husband married me to have a constant reminder of how loathsome women are," exclaims the eccentric Fefu at the start of the play. It's spring in New England in 1935 and Fefu has invited seven of her closest friends over to her country house for an afternoon of shocking conversation and social subversion. When the women separate into different rooms of Fefu's house, the audience follows them and become voyeurs to the complex inner world of these women. Fefu and Her Friends is a mysterious, fun and dissident play—considered one of the pinnacles of feminist theatre.

Tensions are running high on the sweltering streets of Verona. It is a city dominated by the hatred between two households, the Montagues and the Capulets. And yet within the anxious confines of the city walls, one of the greatest love stories of all time is born. Two young lovers from opposing houses sacrifice their family allegiances in a quest to be together no matter the cost. Love, hate, death and destiny collide in Shakespeare's most passionate tragedy.

Monogamist BullockSandra Bullock claims she could never have a one-night stand - because she's a serial monogamist.
The stunning actress, who is currently dating TV host Jesse James, says she would never be able to use a man for sex as she enjoys being in a relationship.
She said: "I tried to have a one-night stand once, and even then I ended up dating the guy for a year-and-a-half."
Meanwhile, Sandra has vowed never to do another romantic comedy.
The stunning actress, who has starred in a string of romantic movies including 'While You Were Sleeping' and 'Two Weeks Notice', says she's not interested in that genre any more because she doesn't think she can top 'Two Weeks Notice', which also starred Hugh Grant
She told Vogue magazine: "After 'Two Weeks Notice' I said, 'No more'. There's nothing else I want to say on the subject of comedy and romance combined. I had the ultimate romantic partner in Hugh Grant. So I've done that chapter in my life, and that chapter is closed.
"There are great love stories to be made, but with romantic comedies, the clich�'©s are rampant. I'd rather go watch one than be in one because I wouldn't buy it if I was doing it now."

Union HRD Minister Shashi Tharoor's Wife Sunanda Pushkar Tharoor Found Dead
Sunanda Pushkar Tharoor and Shashi Tharoor, External Affairs... News PhotoAccidents and Disasters,Delhi,Horizontal,India,New Delhi,Politics,Shashi TharoorPhotographer Hindustan TimesCollection: Hindustan Times 2013 Hindustan TimesNEW DELHI, INDIA - MARCH 7: (File photo) Sunanda Pushkar Tharoor and Shashi Tharoor, External Affairs Minister, during a friendly cricket match between FICCI and Ministry of External Affair (MEA) at Modern School Barakhamba on March 7, 2010 in New Delhi, India. Sunanda Pushkar, the 52-year-old industrialist wife of Union HRD minister Shashi Tharoor was found dead on Friday at a seven-star hotel where the couple had checked in together a day earlier, the police said. News of her death emerged late in the evening, coming within two days of her Twitter spat with a Pakistani journalist, Mehr Tarar, over an alleged affair with the minister. Pushkar, who has business interests in Dubai and was the Congress minister's third wife, was found dead in the bedroom of The Leela Palace suite number 345 around 8.15pm. Mehr Tarar, a columnist with Pakistan's Daily Times, reacted to the news of Pushkar's death in two consecutive tweets: What the hell. Sunanda. Oh my God and I just woke up and read this. Im absolutely shocked. This is too awful for words. So tragic I dont know what to say. Rest in peace, Sunanda. (Photo by Ronjoy Gogoi/Hindustan Times via Getty Images)
