Treasuries Snap Four-Week Decline on Fed Signals, Europe Outlook
Treasuries snapped a four-week slide after Federal Reserve meeting minutes suggested a weakening economy may lead to more stimulus measures and concern increased that progress toward resolving Europe's debt crisis stalled.
Hedge-fund managers and other large speculators boosted futures wagers that 10-year notes will rise to the highest level since 2008, a week before Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke speaks at a Jackson Hole, Wyoming, conference where he previewed monetary stimulus programs the past two years. Yields declined even as the U.S. prepares to auction $99 billion in notes next week.
"The minutes repriced the market," said Thomas Connor, president and head of trading at Pierpont Securities Stamford, Connecticut. "I tend to think Bernanke will be somewhat noncommittal, but will keep further easing action on the table."
The benchmark 10-year note yield dropped 12 basis points this week, or 0.12 percentage point, to 1.69 percent at 5 p.m. New York time, according to Bloomberg Bond Trader prices. It was the biggest decrease since the five days ended June 1. The yield was little changed today after dropping earlier as much as five basis points to 1.63 percent, the lowest level since Aug. 13. The price of the 1.625 percent security due in August 2022 gained 1 1/8, or $11.25 per $1,000 face amount, to 99 14/32.
Thirty-year bond yields fell 13 basis points, also the most since June 1, to 2.8 percent. They were little changed on the day, after sliding five basis points earlier to 2.74 percent, the least since Aug. 14.
Net Longs
Speculative long positions on 10-year note futures, or bets prices will rise, outnumbered short positions in the week ended Aug. 21 by 97,540 contracts on the Chicago Board of Trade, the most since March 2008. The so-called net-long positions more than tripled from a week earlier, the Washington-based commission said in its Commitments of Traders report.
Treasuries climbed earlier today as investors sought refuge amid concern ECB President Mario Draghi may not announce a definitive bond-purchase program at the bank's Sept. 6 meeting. A German court is scheduled to rule Sept. 12 on the legality of Europe's permanent bailout fund, and two central-bank officials said Draghi may wait until after the decision. The officials requested anonymity because the deliberations are not public.
The ECB chief announced on Aug. 2 the bank may intervene in the secondary market to reduce bond yields in countries such as Spain and Italy if they apply to Europe's bailout fund for aid and accept the conditions attached.
Bonds pared gains on prospects that further Fed stimulus may increase appetite for risk and damp demand for the safety of government securities.
'Further Action'
Bernanke, in a letter dated Aug. 22 to Representative Darrell Issa, said the Fed has the ability to take additional steps to boost the economy. Issa, a California Republican, chairs the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
"There is scope for further action by the Federal Reserve to ease financial conditions and strengthen the recovery," Bernanke said in the letter.
The Fed chairman is scheduled to speak on Aug. 31 at a Kansas City Fed conference in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where he may clarify his thinking on the need for stimulus.
The central bank signaled earlier this week it's ready to take further steps to spur the recovery. Many policy makers said additional stimulus probably will be needed soon unless the economy shows signs of a durable pickup, according to minutes released Aug. 22 of the central bank's most recent meeting, on July 31-Aug. 1. The central bank bought $2.3 trillion of debt from 2008 to 2011 in two rounds of a stimulus strategy called quantitative easing.
Fed Sale
The Fed sold $7.8 billion today of Treasuries due from May 2015 to November 2015. The action was part of the central bank's efforts to exchange shorter-term Treasuries in its holdings for those due in six to 30 years to support the economy by putting downward pressure on long-term borrowing costs.
Treasuries have "more room to rally," according to the Barclays Plc. One of the 21 primary dealers that trade with the Fed. The rally over the past week hasn't erased the full increase in 10-year yields over the previous four weeks, Ajay Rajadhyaksha and Vivek Shukla, analysts at Barclays Capital in New York, wrote in a client note today. Yields rose 35 basis points over the four weeks ended Aug. 17.
"In the absence of policy surprises in Europe or a sudden shift in the tone of economic data -- we see neither as likely -- the rally is unlikely to reverse," they wrote.
Investors should sell Treasuries and buy inflation-indexed securities, betting expectations for rising prices continue amid speculation the Fed will add further monetary stimulus, according to Citigroup Inc.
Break-Even Rates
Break-even rates, the yield gap between nominal notes and Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, or TIPS, from one to five years are poised to widen after the Fed's stimulus signals this week, said Jabaz Mathai, an interest-rate strategist at Citigroup. The five-year break-even rate was 1.93 percentage points today, versus 1.68 on July 25.
Treasuries are almost the most expensive in more than two weeks, according to the term premium, a model created by economists at the Fed that includes expectations for interest rates, growth and inflation. The gauge was negative 0.83 percent today, from negative 0.85 percent two days ago, the most costly since Aug. 6. It reached negative 0.70 percent on Aug. 16, the least costly since May. A negative reading indicates investors are willing to accept yields below what's considered fair value.
U.S. government securities have lost 0.7 percent this month, paring their 2012 return to 2 percent, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch's Treasury Master index.
The Treasury will auction $35 billion of two-year debt on Aug. 28, the same amount of five-year notes the following day and $29 billion of seven-year securities on Aug. 30. The amounts were unchanged from last month's sales of the securities.
Bonds extended gains earlier after data showed bookings for non-military capital equipment excluding planes slumped 3.4 percent, the most in eight months, a Commerce Department report showed today in Washington.

Testing for Heterogeneous Parameters in Least-Squares Approximations
This paper suggests tests for the heterogeneity of parameters in linear least-squares estimation. The tests are based on the properties of resampled estimates, and test the hypotheses that the parameters have a common mean, or that they are independently and identically distributed. The test can be viewed as the analogue of those based on recursive residuals in cross-sectional models. The authors analyze the properties of tests based on jack-knifed estimates in the linear regression model and compare their performance in a small empirical application.

Orange-Ulster BOCES CTE Program Profile
The Orange-Ulster BOCES Career & Technical Education Center maintains a wide variety of data on its programs and students.
student profile - school year 2013-2014
student profile - school year 2012-2013
Student Profile - School Year 2011-2012
This profile includes:
Monthly Average Attendance – this is our rate of student attendance.
Retention Rate – the percentage of eligible students that return to a second year program.
Completion Rate – the percentage of eligible students that complete the second year of a program or a one-year program.
Industry Standard Assessments – the percentage of regular education and special education students that achieve success on an industry standard exam upon program completion. These students are eligible for a Technical Endorsement on their high school diploma.
Final Grade Distribution – this reflects the grade distribution obtained by our students.
Gender Distribution – the number of males and females that attend each year. Particular attention is paid to those students that enroll in programs non-traditional to their gender.
Graduate Survey – refers to the success rate of our graduates by state identified categories. Historically our graduates have obtained a 91 – 93% success rate directly out of high school. During the last two survey years we have begun to identify a trend showing an increase in post-secondary attendance rates. In contrast, our lower employment rates for students reflect NYS Department of Labor reports showing the highest unemployment rates in decades.
The Career and Technical Education Center maintains this data on a program by program basis and utilizes the results to develop program improvement strategies.

Austco's Tacera Nurse Call Automates Workflow and Delivers Hospital-Wide Patient Care Efficiencies
Melbourne, Victoria, Jan 30, 2013 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- Nathan Buzza, Marketing Manager at Austco, announced a new Duty Station that provides rounding and reminder options for the company's Tacera nurse call platform.
"In the hectic environment of the Med/Surg Unit, caregivers manage countless requests throughout the day." stated Buzza, "Tacera provides your staff with the added confidence that they're providing patients with high quality care and pain assessment via the Touch Duty Station and staff are freed from concerns about overlooking a critical duty." The Touch Duty Station is like having a Nurse's station in every room. Care providers can easily view a list of every active call, in every room, to gain a holistic view of the unit.
Additionally, the units integrated VoIP interface enables care providers to answer and initiate calls from any room.
The Touch Duty Station assists caregivers in supporting the evidence-based practice of rounding by reminding them when it's time to check in on patients.
Rounding provides more than boost patient satisfaction; it also: a- Reduces the number of patient falls.
a- Improves the unit's workflow by reducing the number of calls.
a- Increases interaction between care providers and patients Pain management is a key component in providing the overall quality of care for your patients. Since a patient's self-report is the single most reliable indicator of the existence and intensity of pain, ongoing communication is vital to managing pain and speed recovery time.
Tacera helps caregivers establish and maintain the all-important element of trust with their patients by reminding them to perform regular pain assessments.
A "Wound Care" button on the Touch Duty Station prompts caregivers to check on patients' wounds so they can apply dressings, administer pain medication, and assist patients to move in bed to relieve pain and prevent bedsores.
Wound care reminders can be dispatched directly to your facility's Physical Therapy department or Wound Care group, according to the patient's needs and internal processes.
By sending the calls directly to the appropriate wound care providers, nurses can stay focused on their rounding procedures, knowing that their patients are getting the care they need.
Austco will be exhibiting the Touch Duty Station at HIMSS (Booth 3487), March 3-7, 2013 in New Orleans.

I'm northwest of Chicago, with cool and wet spring/fall, and hot summer. I like Honey Bouquet far better than Julia Child and Golden Celebration. It's most compact, always blooming, best disease-resistant, color that doesn't fade like Julia Child - It requires less space and less water than Golden Celebration.

An outstanding addition to the garden. This rose is not only decorative but is also a very good cut flower. Although a Floribunda, it has plenty of single stemed beauties that last forever on the bush and in the vase. Takes heat and humidity in stride, and is always in bloom. The color is more of a pale yellow in summer, but with cooler weather may develop a luscious apricot overlay. Fragrance is mild. Disease resistance is average for blackspot, but stays clean if sprayed with a good fungicide.

Introduction to Testis Battle
Play Multiplayer Tetris® with your friends for Free! Tetris® Battle allows you to have fun with Tetris, one of the world's most popular puzzle games in a multiplayer environment with other users on Facebook.
Tetris is an old school game that originates from Russia, in this game you will be tasked with falling blocks in which you need to fit together without leaving behind any gaps in your build. Whenever you make a solid line from the left wall to the right wall, it will be destroyed and removed supplying you with valuable points. If you make 5 lines at the same time (this is called a Tetris, and hence where the name of the game comes from), you will get the highest possible points possible in one go. If you make a gap in a line, don't worry it is possible to work your way down and remove the annoying gap. There is not just one level of course, there are several levels. The levels are divided up by the speed of the falling blocks. As the level and velocity of the falling block increases, so does the difficulty of the game. Since the block falls faster its harder to rotate and fit the blocks in time making you miss placing the blocks in the right place therefore making more gaps in your build getting it much harder to be clear te level!

Senior night recognizes spring sports athletes.
The Lady Panthers ended their regular season with another dominant victory over the Tuscola Mountaineers at the Panther Den on Monday night. The team appeared as though the week long break they had as a result of last week's snow storm had affected them very little as they held Tuscola scoreless until the last minute of the first quarter. The pace of the game didn't change much throughout as FHS took the win with a final score of 77-28.
The 2A Western North Carolina Athletic Conference tournament began on Tuesday. The Lady Panthers went 13-1 in the conference and earned themselves a bye in the first round. Tonight [Thursday] they will play the Smoky Mountain Mustangs in the 2A championship. The teams have played twice this season with Franklin winning both contests, the first time, 61-42, and the next, 66-23.

With a winter windstorm battering Anchorage's Hillside on Tuesday, the state transportation department said the Seward Highway would remain closed south of the city until about noon today due to whiteout conditions, snowdrifts on the roadway and the potential for avalanches hitting the highway.
The highway was closed Tuesday morning from Potter Marsh to Girdwood because of whiteout conditions and two small avalanches near McHugh Creek. Late in the day,, the road was opened from Anchorage to near Bird Creek, but was expected to remain closed between Mile 90 at Girdwood and Mile 100 near Bird Creek, according to the Department of Transportation and Public Facilities.
Debris from two small avalanches reached the highway's northbound lane near McHugh Creek early Tuesday. Crews cleaned that up and later fired artillery into mountains just north of Bird Point to release a larger avalanche, said DOT spokesman Rick Feller. The slide covered the entire highway and still needed to be cleared late Tuesday, Feller said. And before traffic could pass through, further scouting for avalanche danger would have to occur during the daylight hours today, he said.
"It's obviously better for all if an avalanche is triggered in a controlled setting while the road is closed to lower the risk for everyone," Feller said.
The Anton Anderson Memorial Tunnel, which connects the city of Whittier to the state highway system, is also closed until at least 7 a.m. today, depending on the weather, Feller said.
The Anchorage School District canceled bus routes Tuesday that run along Turnagain Arm. In a written statement, the district said it would reassess the possibility of buses today between Girdwood and Anchorage if the Seward Highway reopened.
Meanwhile, high winds battered Anchorage's Hillside and Turnagain Arm all day Tuesday. A weather station at Glen Alps recorded a gust of nearly 104 mph about 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, according to the weather service.
Hillside residents said they were hunkering down to avoid driving in the blinding snow, and a man in Bear Valley said he was blown from his feet while walking to help a neighbor.
Another man, Bob Sutherland, said he decided to stay at his home near Upper DeArmoun Road after a harrowing drive to town and back Tuesday morning.
"In the span of just a few minutes, the wind kicked up and I couldn't see the road due to the blowing snow ... I just couldn't see the road surface," Sutherland wrote in an email. "The winds are strong and have been gathering force all day."
The highway closures and hurricane-force wind are just part of another powerful storm socking Southcentral and areas to the south in an Alaska winter already characterized by extreme weather.
Areas including Turnagain Pass and Portage Valley, were under a blizzard warning, with snow and high wind possible, the weather service said.
More than a foot of snow fell in Seward -- where the city warned boat owners to shovel their vessels at the risk of the snow causing capsizing -- and 6- to 7-foot snowdrifts were reported around Homer, Feller said.
In Kodiak, the airport was closed due to slippery surfaces from snow melting atop ice, according to the DOT. Marty Owen, Kodiak's harbor master, said huge puddles had formed all over town and the heavy, water-laden snow had caused three local boats -- including a house boat -- to capsize.
Power outages on the Kenai Peninsula, including one near Sterling and the other between Anchor Point and Homer, affected a total of about 110 customers Tuesday morning, reported Homer Electric Association. By 2:15 p.m., HEA was still working on restoring power to three customers.
The Peninsula community of Hope was without power about midday, and a brief outage struck Girdwood earlier, according to Chugach Electric.
Many areas of Alaska were under severe-weather warnings Tuesday morning, with blizzard conditions and heavy snow from Western Alaska and portions of the Interior all the way to Haines and Juneau in Southeast.
Valdez, already hit hard by snow this winter, was forecast to get up to 20 inches, by Wednesday night, according to the weather service.Reader photos: 2011 Alaska winter

Arup plans 100 redundancies
ARUP is planning to slash up to 100 jobs following an employment consultation, which concludes this week
Redundancies will be made at 'Arup Bristol', 'Arup North West' and 'Buildings London', the firm's property division.
Arup says it will 'endeavour to redeploy staff within the firm where possible,' but added: 'We continue to operate in a period of uncertainty in the global economy.'
A spokesperson said: 'We have begun a statutory 30-day consultation period with relevant staff in the UK, and we are doing everything that we can to ensure the redundancy programme is handled with transparency and sensitivity.
The multidisciplinary giant bought Flacq Architects earlier this month.

"As Bryce Harper passed home plate after his 2nd home run of the three he hit yesterday, Ian Desmond lifted Harper's helmet and with a flick of the head, Harper's hair fell back in place. If you get a base hit, you have to stand on base and the helmet weighs down your hair. That's why Harper uses the home run." This message was brought to you by Aqua Net. What? It's better than the same stupid Major League Baseball highlights over and over again on MLB TV — we get it, Bo Jackson threw out a runner! Get a new highlight! It's also better than a Hanz and Franz commercial — talk about a sad commentary on baseball fans' demographic. "Hey, Bill, we have a commercial that appeals to 35 to 60-year-old white males. Any ideas where we should place it?" So, Harper hit three monster-sized badonkadonks like a night out as Gabourey Sidibe's pants and I told you to draft Harper before just about every fantasy baseball 'pert, so you're welcome. Don't mention it. No, no, it's okay. Okay, fine, you can hug me. Stop trying to touch my mustache! Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Jordan Walden
Rajai Davis is, once again, a SAGNOF-ian legend. Again, again, again, was exactly what he did on Saturday when the 34-year-old outfielder stole 3 bases. This year he might just be the best fantasy player of all those playing only part time (the other player fighting for this honor, in my opinion, is Alex Guerrero). He has 6 stolen bases despite starting in only 9 of 18 games through Saturday for the Tigers. Digging up some career stats I see that he's never needed much playing time to rack up the SBs. Since he broke out with 41 stolen bases in 2009 he's averaged 42 steals per season while at the same time averaging only 124.5 games played. And many of those games weren't starts.Please, blog, may I have some more?
I'm a value oriented fantasy manager. I'm not a believer in positional scarcity and I take that approach (aka meritocracy) to my draft by relying largely on projections. When evaluating my slumping players I look at their projections and peripherals to see if the slump means anything. When looking at the hot players in the player pool I take the same approach. I am going to make recommendations to you based on these approaches. For the next in line closers it means recommending players with good projections but also considering each players chance to close in the future. For base stealers it means making sure the player won't destroy your AVG or at least letting you know if he's going to.
This week in SAGNOF (Saves Ain't Got No Face) Recap: Early last week Adam Ottavino ascended into the closer role for Colorado and it looks at the very least to be semi-permanent. He was previously my 7th best next in line closer to own. Formerly my 2nd best next in line closer to own, Joakim Soria had ascended due to an injury to Joe Nathan, who should be back soon and will regain his closer role. Jordan Walden notched a save last night but it appears Trevor Rosenthal was being given the night off. Now onto this week's recommendations…Please, blog, may I have some more?
Dressed in a tuxedo, Ron Kittle walks up to Leon Durham, looking fabulous in a red dress and high heels, and says, "It would be my pleasure to give you a lesson in marksmanship." Leon scoffs, "You couldn't give me a lesson in long-distance spitting." Then they begin to go back and forth, "Anything you can do, I can do better. I can do anything, better than you." "No, you can't, Kris Bryant!" "Yes, I can, Carlos Rodon!" "No, you can't, Kris Bryant!" "Yes, I can, Carlos Rodon!" "You four-eyed honkey, KRIS BRYANT!" "You four-eyed non-honkey, CARLOS RODON!" And so went the Annie Get Your Gun musical performed by the White Sox and Cubs alumni this weekend. Rodon is ready to perform, but why start his clock to pitch out of the bullpen? Unless the White Sox are sick of Noesi butting into their rotation where he doesn't belong. I'd have to guess that's what's happening here. The White Sox are saying Rodon will work out of the bullpen, but within a week or two, he'll be in the rotation. Why do we care? Because he can be the best pitching prospect call up of the season. Yes, he can! I'd own him in any league, but he's likely gone. No, he can't! Anyway, here's what else I saw this weekend in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Why does it seem like there's always more closer situations in flux in the first week than at any other time? Well, whether that's true or not, this year was no different. Don't even try to think about what that actually means. Here's your sumary: By Thursday there were already three new closers, then Sunday we had two old guys getting worked like speed bags at your local gym.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Leave it to the man living in Oregon, born and raised in Washington to take you to Electric Ladyland in the title. PNW represent *tries showing PNW with flashy gang sign…fails…breaks all fingers*. Fine, I'll just throw up the West Coast symbol a la 2Pac and be fine with it. Grey originally pinged me with the idea of heading up a league for the NFBC back in February. When I said yes, I assumed we were talking 'Norwegian Female Bikini Challenge' and graciously accepted. I mean they're right next to Sweden; what could possibly go wrong? Well, ALOT could go wrong, let me tell you. Thankfully, I had Rudy's recap of his 2013 team and the wherewithal and the guile to forge my own path for my own team. For those interested in only RCL style of play…well, first off that's the link to sign up for one and second of all, make an about face. This ain't it. No trades and no FA pickups in season. Nope, you play against 15 other teams in 5×5 roto set up and draft 50 players a team. That's 750 players. There's only 30 teams and they only roster 25 players at the major league level at a time. So basically, we're drafting the entire MLB in one fell swoop. That's special. And hard. And especially hard. But let's not talk about bedroom things just yet. Instead, let's review my NFBC team for the 2015 Fantasy Baseball season…Please, blog, may I have some more?
Some people consider it a made up stat, I say hogwash or peeee-shaw. For the people who play in the leagues where the stat matters, it matters. That's about as devout as I can get since I had to sell my soapbox to pay for my addiction of collectible thimbles. Now, I get it, the Hold stat isn't for everyone. The basis of actually being a stat is wonky at best. These guys do more than just come in for one inning or one batter, they hold your periph numbers in check. If you don't believe, that's fine, I don't believe myself half the time. Heck, I have no reading comprehension, so it's more of a "in one ear out the other" type thing. See, I already forgot what I was discussing here. So this year, some of the top options that are going to be the go-to-holds guys are actually jumping up and taking the starring role for their teams due to injury. So I will delve into a few situations to monitor from a Holds perspective, as well as a nice handy chart with some predictions on the side of caution for the top-20 middle relievers, in terms of them garnering the coveted stat of the Hold.

It's been a long, tough winter (especially for those of you who live in the Northeast), but the wait is almost over. Spring training is in full swing and the regular season is just around the corner. That means, of course, that fantasy baseball draft season is here.
Recently, we've attempted to identify the next Corey Kluber and looked at some hitters who displayed above average power and plate discipline over the past couple of seasons. Today, we're going to focus on relief pitchers. If you're looking for the latest closer rankings as well as the top handcuff and hold options, check out the Bullpen Report, which provides excellent RP analysis each and every week.
This post will attempt to identify relievers with a very specific profile: power arms with high K-rates. Players who throw hard and miss bats. It's that simple. Well, mostly. Let's take a look at the search filters that I used for this exercise:Please, blog, may I have some more?
I wish filling out your fantasy roster with middle relievers was as easy as plop-plop, fizz-fizz. But I'm sure it isn't, because not everyone is using the same model of success. I can dig that, I mean, I come from a long line of Smokeys that like the art of shoveling. Listen, I get it if you don't wanna help your team-rates and ratios by adding guys that are stout in production for basically free at the end of your draft. Streaming relievers is a real thing, I didn't make it up. It does exist, and it lives in the house between Nessy and Sasquatch. It's not for the faint of heart and is probably not for everyone. It is about optimizing your free innings (very useful in RCL leagues that have games started limits, which everyone wants to win). It's a basic theory and the patent is pending, so stick around as I get into the art of streaming relievers. And as an added bonus, I have broken down the MR corps into four separate groups. These groups are broken down by usefulness. We have one for straight cuffs, one for rates and holds, a straight holds, and then some stone cold sleepers for you deep-leaguers.Please, blog, may I have some more?
The deadline will have past by the time you're reading this, so I'm sorry that I can't meet or exceed all those expectations. What I can do is give you the in's and out's of middle relief. Wait, why did everyone just get up and leave? There is punch and pie at the end! So is everyone else confused on what to do with Will Smith?… yeah, me too. He's been getting beat up lately needs a vacation. Smith leads the league in appearances, is the leader in appearances with the lead by a non-closer (41), and has pitched an amazing 17 times on consecutive days. He has rewarded you with 19( albeit painful) NSVH, but his recent implosions may lead me to think there could be a better option for the time being. His BB/9 over the last 30 screams bad news, (P.S., it's in the seven's). I mean, I know the 24 Holds this year is all good and looks like a Canal St. watch, but if you have someone that just reads stats and doesn't read between the lines of fantasy too well, see if they give you a name you like better. My best advice is pull a Judas Priest and run for the hills. Stay tuned for some charts and fun words and sentences that lead to abbreviated paragraphs. Good luck in the week to come.Please, blog, may I have some more?

CLARKSVILLE -- The first quarter of last Tuesday evening's Station Camp-Rossview game belonged to one player: Station Camp senior Yalen Reed. Reed scored 15 of the Station Camp's first 17 points and the Bison did not look back. Station Camp (4-0) rolled to an 83-61 road win over Rossview (3-1).
CLARKSVILLE -- Poor shooting and numerous turnovers led to the demise of the Station Camp Lady Bison last Tuesday evening against Rossview. The Lady Bison (1-3) were nearly held scoreless in the first quarter thanks to several miscues and missed shots. The Hawks (4-0) finished on top, taking a 47-35 win to stay unbeaten.

Young Muslims, including many from the West, have been drawn by the thousands to the bloody, 3-year-old civil war in Syria. But many of the would-be jihadists are clearly amateurs, including some that are minors.
Nowhere has that raised as many alarms as in France, where two adolescent boys last week were being investigated on terrorism charges.
An expert says that battle footage, media coverage, recruitment efforts and an easy journey – many French vacation in Syria's neighbor Turkey – have added to the allure of fighting in the civil war.
Part of France's concerns stem from its Muslim population – the largest in western Europe, estimated at 5 million.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) - Aaron Sorkin is confronting critics of his HBO drama head-on.
The Oscar-winning writer-producer defended "The Newsroom" at a Wednesday gathering of the Television Critics Association and denied reports that he fired his entire writing staff.
Sorkin says there were staff changes, but all the writers were not dismissed. He also announced the show is hiring consultants with real-world newsroom experience for the second season.
HBO said last month that "Newsroom" won a green light for a second season after just two episodes aired. The show stars Jeff Daniels and is set at a fictional cable news network.
The first season completed production and is currently airing. Sorkin says the next season will debut next June. He teased that Sunday's episode will be set during "the night we got bin Laden."

Car Ownership Changes Chinese Society
The Chinese are buying more and more cars and will soon over take the U.S. as the world's No. 1 auto market.
Back in the 1980s, young married couples in China aspired to own a bicycle, a sewing machine, a watch and a radio.
These days, many Chinese men believe they must first own a car, house and a laptop before they can think about getting into a serious relationship.

For competitive geocachers, the MOGA Cup IS the holy grail.
In 2013, Victory Lane and I (with the help of Joranda and his son, Cachin' Bandit) finally laid claim to it.
In all fairness, this year should have been the third non-consecutive year we brought in home to Iowa. IGO hosted MOGA last year (2012). So, we couldn't say three STRAIGHT years.
In 2010, I foiled by Point 56 (Memorialized by GC277Z6 in this park). That cache had been moved by an animal and found later by a cheating cacher. She was driving in a foot traffic only competition. In hindsight, when I came back to the finish without that punch, we probably had enough time to run back up (2 miles one way) and get it and still win. THAT was one of the toughest losses I have ever endured.
In 2011, we won the 30 to 50 age group. But because of not one BUT two navigation errors on the way to the finish that I made, we came in second overall by a couple minutes. And this was AFTER I forgot to do one punch and had to run back almost a mile (one way) to get it.

Huskies Notebook: Oregon Offense a Unique Challenge
If it were just a talent issue, the Oregon offense would be scary enough. But couple it with a unique spread offense that Washington never sees in any other opponent, and you've got the potential for a very difficult weekend for the Huskies defense.
Washington (4-5 overall, 2-4 Pac-10) will try to slow down the league's best offense when it plays at No. 22 Oregon (6-2, 3-2) at 12:30 p.m. Saturday at Autzen Stadium.
"Playing this offense is difficult in itself because you never see it," UW defensive coordinator Kent Baer said. "You don't see this style very often. It's almost like preparing for some of the extreme option teams or the triple option stuff."
The Ducks implemented the spread option offense last year under new offensive coordinator Gary Crowton and Oregon took to it. In a 45-21 victory over Washington, the Huskies ran for 146 yards and passed for 424 as quarterback Kellen Clemens went 36-for-48. The offense spreads its receivers and tight ends wide, puts the quarterback in the shotgun — usually with one running back — and uses a lot of play-action and deception to get the defense guessing.
It's worked well. Oregon ranks fifth in the nation in total offense at 456.5 yards per game and eighth in scoring at 36.6 points per game. The Ducks are second in the Pac 10 in passing and first in rushing, averaging 192.6 yards on the ground.
The Huskies say that even though it is a unique offense, they should be fairly well prepared for it. Oregon quarterback Dennis Dixon can run and pass, similar to Isaiah Stanback, Carl Bonnell and Jake Locker. Dixon averages almost 212 yards passing and 35 yards rushing a game. The Huskies also have a bit of the spread offense in their playbook, so it's a concept and challenge that isn't completely foreign.
"It's similar to our offense in some regard," senior linebacker Scott White said. "We run the shotgun read series, we have a mobile quarterback, Going against that in fall and playing against Isaiah every day in practice gives us a little bit of help preparing for a running quarterback and a spread offense."
James, Bonnell Ready to Go
Coach Tyrone Willingham said Kenny James has worked well in practice this week and should be ready to play Saturday. James missed last week with a sprained ankle.
Willingham also said Bonnell worked well Tuesday. Bonnell had a concussion on Saturday and is also dealing with a sprained non-throwing shoulder.
Freshman linebacker Donald Butler has not practiced this week
and Willingham said he doesn't anticipate Butler being ready to
play Saturday. Butler suffered a bruised calf against Arizona State.
Though Trenton Tuiasosopo is listed as the backup to Tahj
Bomar at middle linebacker in Butler's place, Willingham said
he wasn't sure yet who would actually man that spot.
Dawg Bites
Defensive backs coach J.D. Williams said Mesphin Forrester will get the first start of his career Saturday filling in for Jason Wells at free safety. Wells is out with a knee injury. Forrester has been competing with Chris Hemphill for that job. ... Willingham said that backup quarterback Johnny DuRocher has started to receive more snaps this week in practice. ... Offensive lineman Jordan White-Frisbee has returned to practice on a limited basis. He has had his left arm in a sling the past couple weeks. Willingham said it's not likely he would see playing time soon as he adjusts to the offensive line after spending much of the season on defense.

Michael G. DeGroote National Pain Centre
Patient Engagement / SPOR
Opioid Manager
* Please note: The Switching Opiods Form document cannot be modified.
Distributed through the support of the Michael G. DeGroote National Pain Centre
A Pillar of the Michael G. DeGroote Centre Institute for Pain Research and Care
The Michael G. DeGroote National Pain Centre is the third pillar in the tripod of what we anticipate will be an internationally important initiative.
In Hamilton, the identification of the problem of chronic pain and the need for development of effective treatment is increasingly absorbing more attention and focus.
We have the basic science program currently in the Institute for Pain Research and Care, robustly accented with related research in its sister institutes.
McMaster and Hamilton Health Sciences currently operate the largest university-affiliated pain centre in Canada, with over 13,000 patient visits annually. This provides clinical care as well as training for health care professionals in pain management, and a unique opportunity to evaluate the impact of guidelines on care.
The combination of basic science, clinical care and education, and now the National Pain Centre's development of best practice guidelines will make the Michael G. DeGroote Institute for Pain Research and Care unequalled in the international quest to resolve the problem of chronic pain.

Ben Roethlisberger's latest injury is just part of a string of bad news for the Steelers this year.

This is a fun little discovery by a British statistician called Joey Faulkner. In looking at how many NFL plays were run from each yard line, he noticed a pretty gradual curve, with a massive spike at the 20 -- which isn't surprising, since so many drives start there after touchbacks. However, he also noticed smaller spikes at the 30, 40, 50, the other 40, et cetera, all over the field more or less between the 10s. His hypothesis: NFL referees, like all humans, have a natural tendency to spot the ball right on the 10-yard lines when they end up anywhere near that general vicinity.

Big changes in Detroit, where the Lions have fired team president Tom Lewand and GM Martin Mayhew. Apparently there's going to be some major overturn throughout the front office...
#Lions source on the firings today: "Total wipeout." Apparently, bosses are going through the building deciding who stays and goes.

Hat tip to reader "TimK" for this one. It's a couple of weeks old, but still relevant for Denver, and really for any other team undergoing a major change in coaching and/or personnel.

Alternate headline: "49ers Bench Kaepernick For Worst Quarterback Of The DVOA Era."
Look, things in San Francisco are clearly going badly. Colin Kaepernick is last among starting quarterbacks in passing DYAR, and only Ryan Mallett is worse by DVOA. (And given that Mallett is currently unemployed, he probably won't qualify for these tables in a few weeks.) So it's understandable that the 49ers would consider a quarterback switch.

Chuck Pagano entered the season on the hot seat, and then the Colts to a 3-5 start. The offense is 20th in points scored and next to last in turnovers, and when the DVOA ratings come out later today, the Colts will be 21st in total offense, 22nd passing and 18th rushing. This despite the offseason attempts to surround Andrew Luck with as many weapons as possible.

The Titans hired Ken Whisenhunt to take over a team that went 7-9 in 2013. He's gone 3-20 since. But when you fire a guy after less than two years... I've got to wonder if there's more of a story going on behind the scenes here than just "Tennessee isn't winning games." Mike Mularkey takes over as interim coach.

Yay, actual trade deadline deals. We don't get many of those in the NFL. The 49ers are sending Vernon Davis and a 2016 seventh-round pick to Denver for sixth-round picks in 2015 and 2016. Not much value there for San Francisco, especially because I wonder if Denver might get a compensatory sixth- or seventh-round pick if Davis signs elsewhere after this season.

Re: STID: The Other' Starship / [Spoiler]
Pictures and ship comparisons help.
Abrams ENT is larger than the ENT-E by about 40 meters since the number on the picture is 735 and not the official 725. The height of the ENT-E is 75 meters with memory alpha records Abrams ENT as 190.5 meters height.
While the Dreadnought does look badass. Has anyone else noticed the trend of the last three movies? The Enterprise fights up hill battles against black enemy ships which happen to be several times bigger than it?
Scimitar From NEM. Recorded to have 890 meters length 1350 width
The Narada From 09. With it's absurd length of 5 miles/9,368.7 meters.
And now John Harrison's ship. Which looks to be roughly the size of the Scimitar
Speaking of similarities. Has anyone else noticed that Shinzon, Nero and John Harrison all have a fashion taste in trench coats? While Shinzon's kind of a stylist thing for the Reman military. Does JJ seriously believe black trench coats are the fashion choice of villains in the 23rd century? Haha I jest, I jest.

YMMV: Sy Fy Channel Original Movie
- Broken Base: Your enjoyment of the movies seems to hinge on whether or not you believe Syfy is in on the joke. If you think they are, and are deliberately making the movies So Bad, It's Good as an homage to the B-Movies of yesteryear, you can find them very entertaining. If you think they don't, and are trying to play them painfully straight, you'll probably just find them depressing.
- Narm: The only reason why people still tolerate SyFy films is because the horrible acting and terrible CGI will literally make you laugh your ass off.
- Narm Charm: Then again, some people like seeing gigantic crocodiles and sharks on television eating people and disregard the abysmal CGI.
- Nightmare Retardant: They made it pretty clear that they're running out of ideas when they made a film about killer dinosaur fossils.
- So Bad, It's Good: A few of 'em. A number of them seem to invoke this, and those that seem to embrace it are usually the more enjoyable ones.
- So Okay, It's Average: On a really, really good day they can achieve this.
- Special Effects Failure: It's gotten much worse over the years. Eventually the creators will start hiring people right out of high school to do the CGI. If they haven't already. The practical effects they also use are not much better, if not outright worse, than the CGI.
- Visual Effects of Awesome: A constantly and rather highly debated point of discussion for practically any of these films. For instance, several people consider the titular beast in Wyvern to be fairly well made for a made-for-TV movie.

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
I am a optimist who naturally seeks out the beauty in everything. I love chemistry (like the science, silly), art, sports, and psychology. I believe smiling makes you and the world around you brighter. I am creative. I try to do at least 1 random act of kindness per day. I love to joke, often at my own expense. When I am doing something with children (i.e teaching, babysitting, etc) I feel like I am in touch with the best part of myself. I try hard to remember that there are three sides to every story: your side, my side and what really happened.
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I am in the middle of the Medical school application process, pursuing my lifelong dream of becoming a doctor. I want to be a pediatrician who specializes in mental health so that I can integrate mental wellness into the primary care setting. I believe mental health is a critical part of our lives that is often overlooked when treating patients. I hope to bridge the gap between physical health and mental health in the medical field.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
throwing pottery on the potters wheel, learning languages, organic chemistry, catching a football, being a loyal friend
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
my hair, my laugh
The six things I could never do without
Think outside the box. Sometimes the little things can say a lot.
My family, my friends, my mac, herbal essence hair gel, the ability to go for a run at night and in the rain, people in general
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
my analysis of various situations and people in my life, my future, my family/friends
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?

Again, as with so many of these odd selections from the New York Photo establishment, once is forced to ask, "Who cares about this inane infra-dig and overly self-referential subject matter presented in such a pallid and pedestrian manner?"
Sorry if it isn't your cup of tea, Vanderleun!
Jeeze Vanderleun, you're rude. I think this is amazing work. You're not "forced to ask" anything.

Frustrated by the Final Cut delay, consultant Dustyn Gobler sent sent Steve Jobs an email asking for status update. Jobs supposedly replied (we can't confirm that Gobler did in fact receive a message back from Jobs) with "A great release of Final Cut is coming early next year."
Hardmac reported in September that the Final Cut delay was due to "significant setbacks." Specifically, their source said that differences between the team responsible for Shake and the team working on Motion are partly responsible, and representative of the overall difficulty in uniting all of the suite's applications.
Steve's assertion that an update is due in 2011 is consistent with other rumors we've heard on the subject. For those who, like Gobler, must make very expensive decisions on this software, we say sit tight. An update is on the way. Maybe.

Summer is officially here, with its long, hot days. Many of us will begin to spend more time outdoors whether it's mowing the lawn, working in the garden, exercising, or just having fun.
It is important to drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration, which means your body does not have as much water and fluids as it should have.
Dehydration can be mild, moderate, or severe depending on how much fluid has been lost and not replenished. We need fluids to keep our bodies properly cooled. Without adequate fluids, we may experience muscle cramping, heat exhaustion, or heat stroke. ...

So, I've never really had to deal with any sort of boot/bell boot until I got Moose. I usually put rubber bell boots on him already because he over reaches badly. Now I was talking to my trainer today and she said I should probably buy Moo a pair of splint boots if I ever wana barrel race or jump because he does over reach so badly. She also said he could eventually get ouchy and maybe even abcess because of it(?)-I might be wrong there.
Anyway could anyone explain to me the purpose of these boots and if I should actually purchase a pair? Could you also explain to me how they work and what purpose they will serve on my horse. This is the first time I've ever had I deal with a bad over-reacher.
And for those who say trimmings can help it, it hasn't. His back feet aren't long and I brought it up to my farrier and he suspected Moose had cut himself because he was stuck in the mud and pulled his back leg out of the mud and obviously must have clipped his front pretty good. (was really muddy the week in happend) He didn't seem too concerned when I asked him if we should maybe square his back feet alittle.
Any info would greatly help!
