Now back in the UK, and with a functioning computer again, I've been digging a little further into the other IP proposals in the HM Treasury Corporate Tax reform document, and looking at the review of the intangibles tax regime published by HMRC – see earlier post for the patent box proposals.
CFC reforms:
Finance Act 2011 will include some interim reforms to the controlled foreign companies* rules and, in particular, a new exemption for CFCs meeting certain conditions. In particular, the conditions include the requirement that the CFC must receive at most an incidental amount of IP income, where "incidental" ≤ 5%.
Secondly, FA 2011 will include a specific exemption from the CFC rules for a CFC with main business of IP exploitation; provided that the IP and CFC have minimal connection with the UK (ie: this is intended to exempt CFCs that do business almost entirely outside the UK). No specific thresholds are given, but when considering whether the IP has a minimal UK connection, the business should review whether the IP was ever held in UK, and whether any R&D was done in the UK. When considering whether the CFC has a minimal UK connection, the company should consider the extent/nature of any UK equity funding, whether there are any receipts from the UK, and what expenses have been incurred in the UK.
*CFC: for the non-tax specialists – a controlled foreign company is a subsidiary of a UK company that is located in a low/no tax jurisdiction. The CFC rules are intended to ensure that UK companies don't dump profits into these subsidiaries to divert taxable income from the UK – they achieve this by taxing the UK parent on the profits of the CFC, unless an exemption is available. At present, the rules are rather more restrictive than is competitive or compatible with modern multinational business, and so reform is being considered as part of the corporate tax reform package.
IP tax regime review
HMRC commissioned a review of the IP tax regime, introduced in 2002, from Ipsos Mori. The conclusions aren't wildly startling:
- The intangibles regime was considered important to decision making, in so far as intangibles were often felt to be vital to business success. However, it was not influential on what decisions were made - it influenced how deals were structured, rather than whether or not they took place at all.
- The UK regime was therefore typically felt to be of little consequence in acquisitions
- Ultimately, the UK regime was viewed as neither favourable nor unfavourable – taxation of intangibles was seen as part of doing business, rather than a direct influence on the decision making process.
- While the tax regime introduced in 2002 was appreciated by companies for making the law clearer, most did not believe that decision making regarding intangible assets would have been any different before this time.

The Dangers of High Heels
Since becoming a stay-at-home mom, I hardly ever wear high heels anymore; in fact I only own 4-5 pairs from my days of working in the corporate world and rarely bust them out if I can get away with flats.
But, I do love them and sometimes choose cute over comfort for a date night or dinner with friends. I love the way heels elongate my legs and raise my derriere and I would be lying if I said I didn't daydream of one day owning my very own pair of Louboutins.
My problem with heels is, I have never really learned to walk in them properly. That and they hurt my feet!
Okay, so it's no secret high heels can be uncomfortable, even for the most skilled heel walker, but did you know that wearing them could lead to osteoarthritis, joint and muscle problems and even heart disease?
In a recent study, in The Journal of Applied Physiology, Australian scientists found that woman who habitually wear heels move with shorter, more forceful strides with their feet perpetually in a flexed, toes-pointed position.
This repetitive movement pattern continues even when women kick off their heels and walk barefoot. Over time, by walking this way women are putting more pressure on their internal organs and in particular on their Achilles tendons.
Another side effect of wearing your stilettos is Plantar fasciitis, an inflammation, usually due to injury or extended wear of shoes without proper heel support, of the plantar fascia, the ligament between the front of the heel bone and the base of the toes that helps to support the arch.
So, what's a girl who is addicted to her towering footwear to do? As with most things, moderation is key.
Scientists suggest removing your heels whenever possible, like while sitting at your desk at work, or trying an alternative all together such as ballerina flats, flat boots, loafers or these cute little numbers:
Tom's – One For One is an amazing company! You get to do good while being comfortable because for every pair of Tom's shoes you purchase, Tom's gives a pair of shoes to a child in need. How great is that?
I have two pairs and I love not only how comfy they are, but the fact that they go with everything! I am swooning over their spring collection, which includes wedges!
Corbel Women's Vegan Classics
Red Nautical Stripe Women's Wedges
Flat boots are really hot right now and they are so versatile! With so many different colors, styles and lengths to choose from you can't go wrong, plus they won't hurt your feet! Check out this great pair from the Jessica Simpson Collection:
If you just have to wear your heels, bring these along too: Dr. Scholl's® For Her Fast Flats™ – your spare pair!
These adorable foldable flats fit right in your purse and are perfect for when you need to get out of your heels and give your feet a rest…fast! Available at drug stores and run about $12.99.

Good.Darder | Dec. 9, 2012 | See all Darder's reviews »
I was never interested in flight simulators, but a friend of mine really wanted me to at least try out one of them. So I did, and tried this one. It is really good. Realistic enough to make you believe that you are actually flying a real plane, and visually pleasing with its top notch graphics. I showed the game to my father as well, and he loved it. For those of you who enjoy flight simulators, or wanted to become pilot and never could, well this game will keep you entertained for sure. The only problem is that its price is a little bit high, but with GMG vouchers, it should be alright.
Amazingruready12 | Nov. 1, 2012 | See all ruready12's reviews »
Finally, a good flight simulator. The gameplay is great and feels like you're actually flying an airplane. The graphics are amazingly well done and look better than most high-end games that come out today. The minimum requirements are not that high so pretty old computers can play it fine while it still looks awesome.. It is also packed with tons of content such as" 30+ vehicles to fly, new features never seen in a flight simulator, 20+ scenarios and 3D view of the whole plane. This game is a must-buy for any simulator fan.

12-14 October, 2011 in Chiang Mai Thailand
10th International Symposium on New Technologies for Urban Safety of Mega Cities in Asia
Abstract Deadline:
30 June 2011
Date: 12-14 October 2011
Location: The Empress Hotel, Chiang Mai Thailand
Organizers: Asian Institute of Technology, Chiang Mai University, Chulalongkorn University, and The University of Tokyo
Co-Organizers: UNU-ISP
Over half the world's population is concentrated in urban areas covering just 4% of the world's surface. In particular, mega cities (with populations greater than 10 million) are characterized by a high population density and tremendous pressure on supporting infrastructure, increasing susceptibility to lack of safe drinking water and adequate sanitation. Both rapid urbanization and economic development are distinctive features of Asia along with the tremendous rate of population growth. It is estimated that by 2015, Asia will hold more than 50% of the mega cities in the world. Phenomenal growth in the number of high-rise buildings and other infrastructure in these cities is already underway, although measures for their maintenance are not often ensured.
Recent developments in various fields have focused on devising new methodologies for management of urban assets and infrastructure to mitigate damage during disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and terrorism. Given the critical situation in Asia, increased effort to learn from these developments and provide a safer environment is vital. This can be achieved only when the different concerned groups, including researchers, practicing engineers, emergency managers, decision makers, and more share their concerns and expertise.
Recognizing the importance of applying advanced tools in urban safety, Asian Institute of Technology, Chiang Mai University, Chulalongkorn University, and The University of Tokyo are hosting, sponsoring, and organizing a 3-day international symposium in Chiang Mai, Thailand, on new technologies for urban safety of mega cities in Asia. The symposium will cover two days (Oct. 12 and 13), followed by a one-day post-symposium tour around the Chiang Mai area.
For more information, please visit the official website.

Hurrah for train rides to the seaside!
www.ianleake.com || Facebook || The Platinum Printing Workshop, 2nd Edition
A bit more information, with a Network Railcard, the same-day return ticket from London should be around £12.
And as mentioned before, The Siderotype Gallery will be open that weekend too, so you can visit the pretty cyanotypes, chrystotypes, etc.
Looking at the map again, we can easily walk from the station, do a little detour to go past the Pavillion to take pictures of the pretty domes, then carry on to the Dark Van. Then if people want, walk to Siderotype Gallery which is kind of in the opposite direction but quite near the beach/prom.
Editing to add, this will be an open event, anyone who wants to join us can, I'll try to organise some sort of timetable.
I've decided I want to move to Brighton, the weekend before (18/19th) is the end of Chocolate Week in Brighton :o )

I will have to see if I am allowed out to play that weekend. I'm already going away this weekend so.... twice in one month.... could be possible!
Either Saturday or Sunday would be o.k. for me. I will risk those pesky trains playing tricks on me whichever day it is.

Looked at diary, can do either day. This said, there seem to be a voiced preference for Saturday.

I've checked Southern Trains website and vaguely saw something about works near Brighton on the Sunday, so Saturday it is (Ian was right, those nasty trains do weird things on Sundays!).
Dave - Did you go on Saturday or did we somehow manage to miss each other completely on Friday? I went down there as well
Hi Heather, i went down saturday and sunday, boy was it windy, nearly got blown into the sea!
I am free on the saturday so all things being well I will head down there again to see some wetplates being made. Would love to start doing some wetplates but it seems the chemicals are hard to find for us living in Blighty.

I'm free on Saturday 25th. Still not managed to get started with alt-processes, this might be the extra inspiration I need!
Hi Heather,
Have you got an idea about timing? at what time is it in Brighton? I'll look up the train timetable.
i think meeting up by the seaside at the dark van around 2-3pm (somewhere in that range depending on train times and ability to walk from station etc) sounds good. It's an all day thing from what I can tell but I assume they mean daylight hours

A road in Rifle has been completely washed out because of flood waters.
Multiple debris slides and washouts have been reported on JQS road north of Rifle.
The road is one of two public access routes to the top of the Roan Plateau.
Officials don't have any idea when the road could reopen, but they say high snowpack melting at a rapid rate does bring the potential for more debris slides and wipeouts in the coming days.

Reflections from Derry, Northern Ireland
The conflict that has been going on for decades in Northern Ireland and considered by many to have been brought to an end with the signing of the Belfast "Good Friday" Agreement in 1998, was brought into clear focus for me when I attended a conference on conflict and divided societies at Magee College, University of Ulster in Derry, Northern Ireland, two weeks ago. The theme of the conference was 'divisions within divisions' and examined the role women played within politically divided societies as a result of conflict and internal strife. This conference was organized by Dr. James Skelly on behalf of the BCA Study Abroad Program, in partnership with AEGEE (European Students' Forum), Foundation for International Education, University of Ulster and University of San Diego.
A mural depicting the Troubles in Free Derry – More photos on Flickr here
Prior to the conference, I really did not know much about the conflict happening in Ireland, specifically in Northern Ireland, let alone understand the full intensity and gravity of the historical divisions that runs deep between those who fought for an independent Irish republic, the mainly-Catholic nationalists; and those who fought to remain a part of the United Kingdom, the mainly-Protestant unionists. My perception of Ireland and the Irish in general, was rather limited to St. Patrick's Day celebrations held every March 17; Guinness; four-leaf clovers; and leprechauns sitting on a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. This, I believe, is a fairly typical North American perspective to say the least–I would hazard a guess and say this is the perspective a majority of people hold who are not from, or have lived, in Ireland/Northern Ireland/United Kingdom for an extended period of time. In any case, I am almost embarrassed to admit what my stereotypes of Ireland were prior to this experience.

I also don't fully understand the complexities or know all of the history behind the troubles of Northern Ireland. I am, however, very curious about the peace process that has brought about a relative amount of peace and calm across Northern Ireland for the past decade or so; specifically in Derry, said to be the epicentre of the Irish Troubles back in 1968 and also where Bloody Sunday took place on January 30, 1972, when 13 civilians were shot dead by the British military in a civil rights march in the Bogside area. On a side note, there was a recent car bombing that took place in Derry in early October of this year; fortunately, no one was injured as a warning was given ahead of time. This time around, a group calling themselves the Real IRA claimed responsibility for the attack. And as with many conflicts around the world, there are always two sides to every story. A cursory search on YouTube regarding the 'The Troubles' in Ireland reveals countless documentaries on the nature of the conflict. However, within minutes, you can usually tell which ideological lens and perspective the video stems from and seeks to portray. Wikipedia also has a fairly comprehensive overview of 'The Troubles' of Northern Ireland, with a long list of references to look into, should you be interested in understanding the history of the conflict in Northern Ireland in greater detail.

There was one particular aspect of the conference that I found to be one of the most intense experiences that I have ever encountered in my life. On day two of the conference, we were extremely lucky to have had 3 cast members of the Playhouse Theatre of Witness production, "I Once Knew A Girl…" , along with the director, Teya Sepinuck, come in to give us a rendition of the play specifically for delegates of the conference. Since it was a fairly small academic conference with around 50 conference attendees (including speakers), to say that the atmosphere in the small(ish) lecture room was intimate was an understatement.
"I Once Knew a Girl…" – More photos on Flickr here
"I Once Knew A Girl…" is described as an original multi-media production performed and created by women whose lives were affected during the Troubles. The play is based on their true life stories and the production is by daughters, mothers, grandmothers and partners who through the circumstances of history, became involved as witnesses, survivors, and active participants of the Troubles, as well as more recent years of peace building. The one story that really got to me was the story of Mrs. Gillespie, the wife of Patrick 'Patsy' Gillespie, a Catholic from Derry who worked for the British Army as a cook, and thus, seen as a legitimate target; kidnapped by the IRA and forced to drive a van loaded with explosives into a military checkpoint outside of Derry, killing Mr. Gillespie and five other British soldiers in the process. By the time Mrs. Gillespie had finished telling her story, I was in tears just like a little child and completely speechless for close to half an hour. Prior to Mrs. Gillespie sharing her story and concluding the conference rendition of the play, we had also heard from a woman who was a former IRA paramilitary member, as well as from another woman who was a police officer. Given the history and complexities of the Troubles, the fact that these women have the strength to come together to share their stories in the face of conflict, adversity and tragedy, and in the end, are able to move and carry on with their lives, doing their part to build lasting peace in their community, sends a very strong message that peace can be achieved.

Directly following the play, we then heard from world renowned journalist, Isabel Hilton, who showcased her documentary, Condemned to Live (1999), a report about the after-effects of mass rape and genocide in Rwanda. Isabel then spoke briefly about the state of uncertainty in the world today and the pending environmental crisis that humanity is facing, beginning with the melting of the polar ice caps as a result of raised temperatures due to climate change. When asked a question from the audience why she continues to do what she does, given her long and illustrious career as a journalist having covered many important stories for more than three decades from all over the world, she responded, (paraphrasing slightly), "you cannot 'un-know' what you know… and when you know, you can no longer claim moral innocence and just stand there and do nothing about it."

Needless to say, by the end of the second day of the conference, I was a broken man, but not yet beaten; disheartened, perhaps a little; yet, I still remained positive in the goodness of humanity despite what I had just seen and witnessed. Earlier during the first day of the conference as well, we had also heard from Jody Jensen from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (and Director of the MA International Economics Relations program at ISES), about the case of Agnes Gereb being thrown into a Hungarian prison, for championing home births in the face of the authorities' hardline childbirth policy. However, this issue is important enough to me to merit its own blog post, which I will be publishing very shortly.
At the end of the day, I learned a lot more about the Northern Ireland conflict; walked away with a much deeper appreciation of the role women play when it comes to peace building within divided societies; and made a lot of new friends with some of the coolest people in the world.
In the words of Yann Arthus-Bertrand in the documentary, Home, it is too late to be a pessimist.

Magic Numbers and Progressive Enhancement
Progressive enhancement is part of typography now. First, style text in a generic way. Then, if the fonts you intend are active, follow up with rules that depend on the presence (and dimensions) of those fonts.
More Meaningful Typography
Designing with modular scales is one way to make more conscious, meaningful choices about measurement on the web. Modular scales work with—not against—responsive design and grids, provide a sensible alternative to basing our compositions on viewport limitations du jour, and help us achieve a visual harmony not found in compositions that use arbitrary, conventional, or easily divisible numbers. Tim Brown shows us how.
Real Web Type in Real Web Context
Web fonts are here. Now that browsers support real fonts in web pages and we can license complete typefaces for such use, it's time to think pragmatically about how to use real fonts in our web projects. Above all, we need to know how our type renders in screens, in web browsers. To that end, Tim Brown has created Web Font Specimen, a handy, free resource web designers and type designers can use to see how typefaces will look on the web.

Andy Ames
Age: 48, Years running: 30, Hometown: Boulder, CO, Favorite product: Crosslite
What are some of your lifetime running goals?
Keep up with my dogs, see a mountain lion(but not too close. There are still hundreds of races I'd like to do but as long as I can keep running and exploring I'll have a smile on my face.
Do you have a claim to fame?
Have commuted by bike or foot to the same job for over 20 years.
Do you have any vices?
Procrastinator. Rachel says hoarder of shoes.
What makes you tick as a runner and in the real world?
Tick!. My wife, Rachel, has Lyme Disease, so that is a bad word in our house. I love to compete and am a naturalist at heart so trail running is my perfect outlet.
What drives you to run?
I drive as little as possible. I'm lucky to have trails just 2 blocks from my house so unless I'm going to races or the high mountains all my runs start from my front door.
What is your favorite movie?
Breaking Away
Do you have any nicknames? Explain:
Hopefully people don't call me too many names.
What's the longest you've gone without sleep? Why?
I'm a light sleeper so I often don't sleep through the night. The longest I stayed up while active was when I did a 24 hour bike ride when I was around 15 years old. It was on a 1 mile course through a shopping center parking lot and I covered 301 miles in about 20 hours. I was too saddle sore to ride the whole 24 hours.
If you had to be named after one of the 50 states, which would it be?
Montana, Monty for short. Big skies, high mountains, and open plains-I think that would suit me well.
What did you have for lunch yesterday?
Peanut butter and apricot jam sandwich and an oatmeal cookie.
If you could hook up a thought monitor to your head, would you see pictures, hear words or would music be playing?
Pictures, I go to bed every night envisioning where I'm going to run and what I might see.
What really scares you about trail running?
Nothing really except the fear of missing out. There are so many wonderful things to see and adventures to be had.
If your life was made into a movie, what would it be called?
Winding trails and wagging tails.
Where would you live if it could be anywhere in the world?
Right here in Boulder. I have trails just two blocks from my house and live only a couple miles from work.
What's your worst encounter on the trail?
I came across a dead body while running on Flagstaff Mountain. Apparently the poor guy fell off a cliff the night before.

Recently the Republican Party had a presidential candidate debate with Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain, Newt Gingrich, Jon Huntsman, Rick Perry, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum. Surprisingly, considering how hard the mainstream news has worked to ignore him, Ron Paul was also present.
There's a lot not to like about these goons and right now I'm still taking it all in, but what sticks in my memory is Rick "I Don't Have A Prayer" Santorum attacking Ron Paul in the previous debate for underestimating the "threat" from Iran. Personally, I think that might be the only thing Ron Paul has gotten right, and seeing this one bit of sanity being attacked should worry us all.
In the aftermath of the debates, the question is: Who came out on top? This article offers some insight, but what does the Disinfo community think? Who's in the lead, who will we see fall first, who will make the funniest mistake in the race?… Read the rest

The Nets have acquired All-Star point guard Deron Williams from the Jazz for Derrick Favors, Devin Harris, two first-round picks, and cash, the teams announced Wednesday.
In a swift and astonishing comeback from their failed pursuit of Carmelo Anthony, New Jersey also will get Dan Gadzuric and Brandan Wright from Golden State for Troy Murphy, who will be bought out, sources said. Murphy is considering signing with Boston, Miami or Orlando once his buyout is complete. That separate transaction, with Golden State also getting a 2012 second-round pick from the Nets, is expected to be completed later Wednesday.
The deal, first reported by the Bergen (N.J.) Record and Yahoo! Sports, represents a major coup for Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov, who lost out to cross-river rival New York in his pursuit of Anthony but arguably gets an even better prize for some of the pieces that were bound for Denver in a deal that was agreed to last week for Anthony. The Knicks acquired Anthony Tuesday for four players and three draft picks in a masssive, three-team, 13-player blockbuster. The Williams-to-New Jersey deal was agreed to Wednesday, hours before Anthony was set to make his debut for the Knicks at Madison Square Garden.
Williams, arguably the best point guard in the game, had grown disenchanted in Utah, where friction between he and coach Jerry Sloan resulted in the Hall of Fame coach resigning Feb. 11. CBSSports.com reported during All-Star weekend that Williams began planning his exit from Utah last summer, telling associates that if Amar'e Stoudemire wound up signing with the Knicks, Williams wanted to follow him there as a free agent in 2012.
In a chaotic environment that has changed the landscape of the NBA, the Jazz boldly got out in front of the looming soap opera with their superstar, opting to trade him for assets a year before his free agency would become a major issue. By doing so, general manager Kevin O'Connor has taken one of the marquee 2012 free agents off the market and spared his organization the kind of drama and distraction that besieged the Nuggets until Anthony finally was dealt to the Knicks.
As one rival executive noted, the Nets turned the "guts of the Melo deal" into a far superior talent and didn't have to give up as much as Denver was asking for Anthony -- or even as much as the Knicks gave up for him. But in the end, the players and draft picks surrendered on both sides of the Hudson River will be all but forgotten once Williams, Stoudemire and Anthony embark on what will be without question the most heated rivalry the New York area teams have ever had.
And with early indications that Williams is not happy with the trade, the Nets took a calculated risk -- but one that could pay enormous dividends. The Knicks got a player who wanted to join them while Williams will have to be sold. But he'll have the rest of this season and next -- barring a lockout -- to evaluate whether he'll have enough talent with him by the time the team moves to Brooklyn in 2012.
The deal saves the Jazz about $3.6 million in salary and luxury-tax payments, but does not push them under the $70.3 million tax threshold. Given the obvious decision to go in a rebuilding direction, the Jazz could be poised for other deals to clear the remaining $4.9 million they're over the tax. The Jazz get New Jersey's 2011 first-round pick and Golden State's 2012 first-rounder, which also comes from the Nets after being acquired in a previous trade.
The Jazz play in Dallas Wednesday night in the first game of the post-Williams era. New Jersey's next game is Friday night in San Antonio, where it is expected that Williams will make his Nets debut.
With star players aggressively angling for better markets and fellow stars to team up with, following the blueprint set forth first by the Celtics and Lakers and then by Miami's Big Three last summer, the Jazz snuffed out what could've been another long, painful march to free agency for Williams.
During All-Star weekend, Williams danced around the report by CBSSports.com that he hatched an escape plan to New York last summer and proclaimed that he would not be addressing his impending free agency until he made a decision. On Wednesday, about 28 hours before the trade deadline, the decision was made for him. Williams has two years left on his contract after this one, including a player option in 2012-13 -- when the Nets are scheduled to move into their new home in Brooklyn and truly ignite their rivalry with the Knicks.
In so many ways, that rivalry has been smoldering for months as the Knicks and Nets pursued Anthony. It was elevated to five-alarm status Wednesday, with Prokhorov trumping Madison Square Garden chairman James Dolan's acquisition of Anthony on the very day the Knicks' new superstar makes his home debut against the Bucks.
Williams isn't eligible for an extension until July 1 -- or whichever comes first, July 1 or the ratification of a new collective bargaining agreement. By trading him a year before he had the leverage of being able to force his way to the team of his choice -- like Anthony did with the Knicks -- the Jazz not only avoid the drama, but they also get a better deal than one they would've gotten under such duress.
The deal not only represents a short-term victory for the Nets in their battle with the Knicks over superstar talent -- it was 2-0 New York until Wednesday, with Stoudemire and Anthony on board at the Garden -- it also has wide-ranging implications in the chase for 2012 free agents. Will Williams stay in New Jersey, buy into the Brooklyn mystique, and try to topple the Knicks' star tandem of Stoudemire and Anthony by serving as a magnet for future free agents? Will he decline to sign an extension and try to force his way to the Knicks? Does his presence on the Nets virtually assure that fellow star point guard Chris Paul will make his summer wedding toast come true by joining Stoudemire and Anthony in New York in 2012? Whom does Dwight Howard team up with when his free-agent clock starts ticking? The Lakers, Knicks, or Nets?
Only this is for sure: The floodgates pushed ajar by LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh last summer have blown wide open.

Deron Williams to Nets
Smart move by the Jazz. Anyone who has watched the Jazz recently could tell Deron wasnt commited to the teams' success. Hopefully a fresh start will give him the motivation he was lacking in Utah. On the other hand he will not have the supporting cast that he had w/ the Jazz so I can see it being a rough transition for him.
Good move for the Nets too. They needed a spark and allthough Harris is very talented he is not on the level of Williams. The nets got one of the best PG's in the game and gave up very little. I see this as a win-win for both teams.

Deron Williams to Nets
The Knicks are still the better team, are still going to the playoffs, are still going to sign Chris Paul next year, and oh yeah they also got a five time all star point guard in Chauncy Billups with Melo.
Really? First of all, Chris Paul has at least one more year after this one in New Orleans before he can leave. And by the way, Felton is a better player and much younger then Billups is right now. Billups isn't going to make anymore allstar teams buddy.
Oh wait, Deron Williams might not even sign with the Nets and end up with the Knicks (he's already told Amare Stoudemire he wants to be a Knick) meaning the Nets just gave up two first round picks, Troy Murphy, Devin Harris, and Derek Favors for a rental ,Dorrelle Wright and no chance of making the playoffs this year.
What part of a NEW CBA COMING UP don't you people understand??? There is so much that can go wrong and so many things that can happen that would prevent Paul or Williams from leaving their teams anytime soon. You obviously don't understand what they are talking about in these negotiations. Ever wonder why the Knicks overpaid so badly for Melo????
There might be a franchise tag similar to the NFL in the NBA in the new CBA... if so, players like Paul and Williams will get franchised... and if it's like the NFL they'll get franchised at least 2 years in a row.... That would mean instead of Paul and Williams having 1 year left on their current deals, they might be there for 3 more. So now you're talking about what the Knicks might get 4 years from now..... is Amare going to be healthy and as good 4 years from now? What about Melo?? We don't know...
And if not a franchise tag, you could see a hard cap. That would pretty well prevent teams from doing a lot of things.... or they could make it a lot more appealing then it is now for a player to stay with their existing teams... they lose some money for leaving now, but they could lose a lot more with a new CBA coming....
Don't be so sure the Knicks are going to get either of those players... and for at least 2 more seasons, you don't have a prayer of getting either of those guys.... they are under contract to play somewhere else.... not to mention your team traded every asset it had to get Melo.... there is no more left for them to trade.....

Deron Williams to Nets
Great deal for the Nets, Melo wasnt the answer for them anyways and Deron will be a huge asset in developing Brooke Lopez as well as giving them a steady floor leader which is vital for this young team. However the Nets need to swing a few more deals for a scoring wing and some role players in order for them to be a playoff team. As for the Jazz, Harris is not the answer at PG and absoutely cannot run the team like Williams did. Favors will have to fight for his playing time over Jefferson and Milsap now. However, the picks will give them a good chance to stock up on young talent for the future.

Deron Williams to Nets
I'll agree that the Nets got a better deal than the Knicks. This is a no-brainer for New Jersey. They upgrade from Devin Harris to Deron Williams, one of the top 15 players in the NBA. They gave up Favors who has shown nothing so far. They give up 2 picks, which are an unknown variable. They give Utah some future potential with Favors and the picks, but the Nets are getting the sure-thing. If they can get a low-post threat to team with D-Will, they become relevant.
The Knicks downgraded from Felton to Billups. They also give up Randolph/Gallinari and their 32 ppg of production. They still won't play any defense. I think today's Knicks look a lot like last week's Knicks. They'll score a lot of points, give up a lot of points, and be a little over .500. A 1st round playoff exit is in their future. Carmelo has had a pretty good supporting cast in Denver and they've never accomplished anything. Stoudemire had a great supporting cast in Phoenix and never got to a Finals. All 3 of these teams are very very similar. A no defense, run up and down the floor style of play. It doesn't lead to championships. This has already been proven, so I'm not sure what the Knicks are thinking, other than they have to try and save face after losing the LeBron sweepstakes.

Deron Williams to Nets
jDragon, I am guessing they have an agreement on an extension for Wiliams, otherwise I doubt NJ would have given up so much for him. That was the whole reason they would not pull the trigger on Melo, the fact that he would not sign an extension. Knicks may wind up getting Paul though. They are thin outside of Amar'e and Melo. Billups is good but old. My guess is they are a 1st round exit from the playoffs this year. But they put themselves in position to be very dangerous in upcoming years now that they have two legitamate All-Star scorers, and can potentially lure some big free agents. If Paul goes to NY look out.

Seal, a meat-eating mammal found in all oceans of the world, but most abundant in Arctic and Antarctic waters. Some seals swim up rivers, and a few are found only in freshwater lakes. Probably the best-known seal species is the Californian sea lion, which is often trained to perform tricks. It is the species most often found in zoos.Seals are skillful swimmers and divers.
Some species of seals are hunted commercially—more for their blubber (fat) and pelts than for their flesh. The fur of some species is popular for fashionable wearing apparel; the hide of other species is used for leather. Oil rendered from the blubber goes mainly into soap. Seal flesh is eaten by Aleuts and was once a welcome food for seafarers. In some localities the flesh is utilized for fertilizer and animal feed. Eskimos have traditionally depended largely on seal, which they hunt with harpoons, for food, clothing, and hides for tents and boats.
Seals along with the walrus make up the taxonomic group Pinnipedia. Some authorities use the term "seal" in referring to all members of the group. For information on the walrus,
|Facts in brief about seals
|Names: male, bull; female, cow; young, calf, pup, or whelp; group, herd or pod.
|Gestation period: About 8 to 12 months, depending on the species.
|Number of newborn: Usually 1, rarely 2.
|Length of life: 40 years or more.
|Where found: Along the coasts of most continents; a few kinds in freshwater lakes and inland seas.
|Scientific classification: Seals make up a group of animals called the pinnipeds. Traditionally, they have been classified as a suborder of the order Carnivora, which includes such land mammals as bears, cats, and dogs. Some zoologists consider the seals a separate order, Pinnipedia. Fur seals and sea lions belong to the eared seal family, Otariidae. Earless seals make up the family Phocidae. Walruses belong to the walrus family, Odobenida. The northern elephant seal is Mirounga angustirostris, and the southern elephant seal is M. leonina. The harbor seal is Phoca vitulina. The hooded seal is Cystophora cristata, and the crabeater seal is Lobodon carcinophagus.

|Diagnostic ELISA for parietal cell autoantibody using tomato lectin-purified gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase (proton pump).
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 1319758 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Circulating parietal cell autoantibodies, a useful diagnostic marker for autoimmune gastritis and pernicious anaemia, are currently routinely tested by serum immunofluorescence reactivity with frozen sections of rodent stomach. The major molecular targets of these parietal cell autoantibodies have recently been demonstrated to be the alpha- and the beta-subunits of the gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase (proton pump). We have demonstrated that tomato lectin binds specifically to the beta-subunit of the proton pump and concomittantly co-purifies the alpha-subunit. In the present study, we have exploited the latter observation for the development of a diagnostic ELISA for the detection of parietal cell autoantibodies and compared the performance of this assay with an ELISA using crude gastric membranes. The ELISAs were tested on 72 parietal cell autoantibody-positive sera, 72 parietal cell autoantibody-negative sera and 72 disease-control sera. The ELISA using lectin-purified canine proton pump was superior to that using crude canine gastric membranes in that it was about two-fold more sensitive (82% vs. 43%). With an assay sensitivity of 82% and a specificity of 90%, we propose that the ELISA using the lectin-purified proton pump is a rapid, simple, sensitive and specific diagnostic immunoassay for parietal cell autoantibodies.

Occupy Seattle protester in miscarriage case is Issaquah graduate
November 23, 2011
By Warren Kagarise
NEW — 10:35 p.m. Nov. 23, 2011
Jennifer Fox, a protester at Occupy Seattle and a 2011 Issaquah High School graduate, skyrocketed to national attention in recent days after she said she miscarried following a confrontation between police and protesters, even as police and the media questioned the claim.
Fox, 19, attributed the miscarriage to kicks and pepper spray from police. The teenager is seen in a video screaming after police used pepper spray against Occupy Seattle protesters at Westlake Park on Nov. 15.
Fox initially told The Stranger, a Seattle alternative newspaper, she suffered a miscarriage after the confrontation, but she has not provided medical documentation to the media during subsequent interviews.
The viral video and Fox's reported miscarriage attracted national attention, including from The Washington Post and Forbes.
Meanwhile, Seattle Central Community College administrators decided Wednesday to oust the Occupy Seattle encampment from the college's Capitol Hill campus.

It seems Jennifer has a great deal of difficulty keeping her story(s) straight. How many drama classes did she attend at Issaquah High school?

ABERDEEN – The city of Aberdeen recently voted 3-2 on a proposal to run its own animal shelter.
After meeting with the county supervisors, Mayor Cecil Belle proposed that the city of Aberdeen manage the shelter for a fixed amount and the county would provide one full-time paid employee.
The Animal Shelter is currently operated by a staff of volunteers. Volunteers will continue to work at the shelter.
Belle said the proposal would help the city as well as the county provide better animal control. Other entities need to vote and approve the move before it takes effect.
