So, Im a member of the March 2013 board as well, and they always have posts about their baby bumps. But as FTM's, our size and shape really cannot compare to most of theirs, as they have already been pregnant. So this is for the FTM's to show their baby bumps, so we can see what other people of the same due date look like and what to possibly expect :). If you can, write some information below too- so other FTM's can compare.

|Those organized as the Instrumentalities of the state and not as local governments.
|Those set up as distinct local governments functioning independently of other local bodies.
|Those organized primarily as the agents of the municipalities located in the territory, i. e., as federated governments.
|Those bearing a peculiar relation to the state and low bodies and the people under their jurisdiction and belonging to none of the above-mentioned classes.
Each of these four classes will be briefly described.
State-controlled authorities are always appointive. Their members may be appointed by the governor, with or without the advice and consent of the legislature, or by the legislature alone. But not all the authorities so appointed are state-controlled. The best criterion of state control is that which looks to whether or not the activities, revenues and expenditures of the authority are controlled by the state government. The authorities belonging to this class are:
The Massachusetts Metropolitan District Commission which is composed of five members appointed by the governor with the advice and consent of the senate. One of them is designated chairman; the others, associates. It functions under the direction of the governor and executes such projects as the legislature from time to time adopts. It is financed by the state by means of appropriations and special bond issues. For most of these appropriations, however, and for the interest and sinking fund charges on these bonds, the state reimburses Itself by means of an assessment which it imposes upon the municipalities in the district. The expenditures of the commission are controlled by the state budget just as the expenditures of any other department of the state.
The Division of Metropolitan Planning of the Massachusetts Metropolitan District. A commission of seven members, three of whom are appointed by the governor with the advice and consent of the senate. Four others are officials representing different departments concerned with transportation and other problems of the district; three of these represent state departments (public

Health Care Law
It's the last day to sign up for health care – in theory: Monday is the last day to sign up for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act without incurring a penalty. At least that's what's supposed to happen. Continue reading
The Associated Press-GfK survey finds that 26 percent of Americans support the Affordable Care Act. Yet even fewer — 13 percent — think it will be completely repealed. A narrow majority expects the law to be further implemented with minor changes, or as passed. Continue reading

If you're uninsured, now's the time to buy a plan. March 31 is the end of the annual open enrollment period when people who don't have coverage through their employers can sign up on or off their state's marketplace. With limited exceptions, people who miss this enrollment window will be unable to sign up for health insurance until next fall for coverage that starts in January 2015. In addition to being uninsured, you will face a penalty for not having coverage. The fine may be bigger than you expect. Here are the details: Continue reading
The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index finds that 15.9 percent of U.S. adults are uninsured thus far in 2014, down from 17.1 percent for the last three months of 2013. Continue reading
The big deadline is coming March 31. By that day, for the first time, nearly everyone in the United States is required to be signed up for health insurance or risk paying a fine. Continue reading
Dealing with the aftermath of a suicide or attempted suicide is stressful enough.

Top Five US Cities for Urban Farming and Homesteading
In the 2011 documentary Happy, psychologists look at the causes and behaviors that create happiness. The number one finding was that strong connections with friends, family and the community make people happier.
Finding connections between friends, family and community is something that new urban homesteaders strive for in their work and play. As a result of the recent recession (2008-2012), the term "homesteading" took a new definition. It defined someone who used homemade or homegrown resources to grow their own food, store rainwater and even generate their own electricity. As one homesteader puts it, "People moved to the city, floundered in crappy jobs, and realized that's just not enough." To be happy, they unplug from the grid and plug into community.
One blogger views the homesteading trend as one that rises with hard times, but tapers off in more bountiful economic times. And there's likely a shade of truth in that notion. But urban homesteading still has many advocates who are on hundreds of online forums, attend gathering meetings and seeking friendship and more.
Where do urban homesteaders live? Where are they gathering? Using the Gallup Wellbeing Index as a jumping off point, here are the top five cities for happy homesteading.
#5: Paso Robles, CA
Located on the Central Coast of California, Paso Robles has a relatively low population density compared to other cities in California. There are fewer than 30,000 people spread out over 19 square miles of land. Paso Robles' warm climate puts it into the top five. Basically, warm weather makes for easier homesteading. Homesteader Linda Holliday wrote about washing clothes by hand. Paso Robles offers a dry, warm climate in which to dry clothes, garden, or bike ride.
# 4: Billings, MT
Montana has lots of land: 147,042 square miles of it, in fact. That's a population density of 10 people per every square mile. Montana is definitely a place where a person can unplug from the grid. But urban homesteaders really only have one choice here — Billings. With a larger population density, Billings is the best urban location for a homesteader.
Billings is the kind of place that a person can create a true permaculture, "an ecological design system for sustainability in all aspects of human endeavor," according to Permaculture Institute. The method enables homesteaders with advice on building homes from scratch, growing their own sustainable foods, keeping yards clean with Husqvarna Trimmers, restoring ransacked landscapes and ecosystems, build communities and much more.
# 3: Barnstable Town, MA
There is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to homesteading. Models come in a range, from supplementing food supplies with rooftop gardens, to creating a farm or digging a well. The Town of Barnstable, the largest community on Cape Cod, is the perfect blend of city and small town. While more affluent then the rest of the top five, with a median home price almost doubling in the past decade, Barnstable has more professionals and carpenters than the rest of Massachusetts. This population mix lets homesteaders tap into the economy when necessary. Homesteaders here can have a normal 9 to 5 job, while still managing a small urban farm, or even manage a natural products business.
# 2: Honolulu, HI
Being able to live on the beach is the dream of most Hawaiian residents. It is part of Hawaii's persona that people can live a natural life, farming the land and fishing the sea. Honolulu, which is on the island of Oahu, is the capital and most populated city in Hawaii. It has 68 square miles of land with more than half of the city on the coastline. Because of Honolulu's economic mix between sugar growers and tourism, the homesteader has a lot of opportunity to become part of the community without losing sight of the natural lifestyle.
The Osborn family moved from Idaho to Honolulu to start a homestead on the island. It took them almost a year to find a small house that would suit their needs. When they did, they contacted the sugar cane growers and began using the leftover part of the cane as fertilizer for their farm. From there, they were able to grow enough food to feed their family and to sell back to the local markets.
# 1: Burlington, VT
Vermont tops the Gallup list of the happiest state in the union, while Burlington tops the list of best places for the urban homesteader. Burlington is 45 miles from of the Canadian border and sits on the coast of Lake Champlain. The university was founded in the 18th century so there is a culture of pedagogical acceptance that most homesteaders find welcoming. Farmers markets abound and fresh-made jams are on every store shelf. The movie Baby Boom even capitalized on this Vermont image, showing the high-powered career woman becoming a homesteader in rural Vermont.
Becoming part of a community can take place anywhere, really. But for stalwart homesteaders, these places above may be the best locations to homestead, and be around around other happy homesteaders.

State Rep. Justin Everett admits that this legislative session has been "difficult" for him personally. On Monday, the Littleton Republican was removed from his seats on the House Education Committee and House Transportation and Energy Committee by his party's leadership.
"Rep. Everett is experiencing some personal issues, and we're trying to be sensitive to that," said Rep. Brian DelGrosso, R-Loveland. "People have to take care of themselves — we're just giving him some extra time, and once he gets things worked out, we'll put him back on (the committees)."
Everett, who will keep his spot on the Public Health Care and Human Services Committee, is one of a handful of Republicans serving on three committees in the Democratic-controlled House.
On Monday, Everett was sitting in a meeting of the Education Committee when the paperwork informing him of his removal came in. Everett was informed he could no longer remain at his seat, and the representative left the committee room.
"I only heard he was being removed just before the meeting," said Millie Hamner, D-Dillon, the committee chair. "I knew they were having concerns with things like attendance, but it was a little surprising."
According to House records, Everett had an excused absence on the first day of the session, and, while usually showing up after roll call has been taken, he has been marked absent on more than a dozen of the session's 71 days, including each day this week. Everett has also missed a number of votes taken on the floor.
"There have just been a lot of things going on, and I've needed some time," he said Wednesday. "There have been some personal things that came to a head this week. ... I've been told I'll be back on my committees next week."

back in September that the leaves fell and revealed Intel's plans for the Cactus Ridge revision of Thunderbolt chips. Now, VR-Zone claims it's received confirmation that the second generation controllers are finally shipping. As already announced, there are two versions: the quad-channel dual DisplayPort DSL3510 edition, and the double channeled Eagle Ridge replacement model DSL3310. It would be careless to speculate about which OEMs might adopt, and in what models, but with Apple already flying the Thunderbolt flag, that's at least one name you can scratch off the list.

|Electrocardiographic changes by accidental hypothermia in an urban and a tropical region.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 17027018 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|BACKGROUND: Hypothermia is defined as a condition in which core temperature (rectal, esophageal, or tympanic) reaches values below 35 degrees C. This may be accidental, metabolic, or therapeutic. The accidental form is frequent in cold-climate countries and rare in those with tropical or subtropical climate. The aim of this study was to evaluate electrocardiographic changes of patients with accidental hypothermia. METHODS: In 59 patients with hypothermia, the following electrocardiogram parameters were analyzed: rhythm and heart rate (HR), P-wave characteristics, PR-interval duration, QRS-complex duration, presence of J wave and its location characteristics, polarity, voltage, aspect and its correlation with the degree of hypothermia, changes in T wave regarding its polarity and characteristics, duration of the QT interval corrected for HR using both Bazett and Friderica formulas, and possible presence of both supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias were independently and blindly analyzed in the tracings by experienced cardiologists. RESULTS: In 6 patients, electrocardiogram was normal. Sinus bradycardia was observed in 52.5% of the patients. J wave was present in 51 patients, and its voltage correlated inversely and was statistically significantly with the core temperature. Changes in T wave were observed in 47.4% of the cases. QT interval, adjusted for HR, was prolonged in 72.8% of the cases. Idioventricular rhythm was found in 6 cases, total atrioventricular block in 3 cases, and junctional rhythm and atrial fibrillation in 2 patients. CONCLUSIONS: Electrocardiogram changes in accidental hypothermia are frequent and characteristic for this entity improving diagnosis in usually unconscious patients, and in many cases, it may be the diagnostic clue in patients with conscience deficit in emergency units, even in patients from a tropical climate where the population at risk may be exposed to temperatures below 20 degrees C.

I thank God I found Dr. Ling. He is one of the most caring, compassionate and professional doctors I have ever met. He wants to get the problem treated with the best options available. He lends his extensive expertise, but at the same time respects your input. He is Great!
When you go to a Doctor, there are two things you want: First, they must be very smart. Dr Ling has (I think - but ask to be sure) both a PhD and an MD! Anyway, he certainly knows what he's doing and is one of the smartest docs I've every met. Second, they have to be good guys and not scare the **** out of you all the time. Dr Ling treated me several times for skin cancer and always made me feel (quite correctly) that I wasn't seeing my final days. He is a genuinely nice guy with a kind smile and a good sense of humor. If you need a dermatologist (thank you spellcheck) and you live anywhere near Newnan (I hope he moved closer by now) then choose this doctor
They are great. They are good with teens and help with acne problems as well as removal of moles. Felt confident when they treated me. Good bedside manner and act like have plenty of time to talk with you about both symptoms and results.
Great place!! I have seen various doctors here since 1999 and have never had any problems at all. They are great and never leave you waiting for long! Always willing to listen to me speak and have always been very friendly!

For a local dance instructor and her students, preparing for a performance is a labor of love.
"It's very exciting," said Mary Ann Snider, who owns and operates The Ballet School. "I don't even consider this a job, but something I get to do. The dancing world is where I call home, it always has been. If I'm ever stressed, this is the place where I unwind.

Frequently Asked Questions Section
Below are frequently asked questions please read through before emailing CHAPS (UK) to help you with your queries..
Q. How do I become a member of CHAPS(UK)?
A. Complete the membership application form that can be downloaded from the website homepage, taking out the package that best suits your needs. Application can also be made online using the Paypal page - before using this facility it is highly recommended that the Paypal Information page is read. The Paypal page should not be used as a download and printed off for submission to CHAPS. Prices are as per form or can be found on the "How to Join" page
Q. How do I register my horse with CHAPS(UK)?
A. CHAPS(UK) can register all coloured horses and ponies irrespective of known pedigree or not - just complete the Horse Registration Application Form that can be downloaded from the website. Use the Non-Members form if you are not a member of this society, or the Members form if you are a member. If you are applying for membership at the same time as registering your horse, use the Members form and send them both together. It is a DEFRA requirement that as from 1st July 2009 all applications for passports, whether for foals or older horses that do not hold a passport, must be microchipped. Please ensure that the microchip number and bar code are shown on the silhouette. Any applications received on or after 1st July 2009 without a microchip will be returned to the applicant. In the case of a microchipped horse, the silhouette and description may be filled in by the owner. However, please be aware th at any horse or pony that is destined for Show Jumping and want to regiser with BSJA must also have the silhouette completed by a vet. Foals: legally, all foals should have a passport before they are 6 months old, or before they are moved from their place of birth permanently. Additionally, if using a CHAPS covering certificate, all foals should be registered before the end of the year of birth in order to gain verified parentage. Applications received for foals after the end of the year of birth will be seen as late registrations, and as such would require DNA verification of parentage and will be subject to a higher registration fee (use and complete the horse registration application form and the covering certificate should be attached). Any foal gotten by "artificial" means will require DNA verification of parentage. It is a recommendation that foals should firstly be registered with the society that issued the covering certificate in order that the stallion is fully recognised and his studbook number and parentage verified. Always ensure that you are using the correct and current forms!!
Q. Do I have to be a member to show in CHAPS classes?
A. The only qualifier classes that are "closed" and are for our showing members and their CHAPS registered horses are our HOYS qualifiers. All other qualifier classes are open to members and non-members alike. However, showing membership and horse registration must be in place to take CHAPS Championship Show qualifiers, the qualifier card being issued with the membership and MUST without fail be signed in the ring by the judge at the time of qualifying. CHAPS Winter Qualifiers give some days grace for anyone who qualifies (refer to qualifier card), and these cards are awarded in the ring. Follow the instructions on the cards to secure your place in the finals! No ungraded stallion 4 years old and over is allowed to compete in any CHAPS class. No qualifier card will be issued to a Junior - all horses must be registered in the name of an adult and, as both owner and rider/handler must be showing members to apply, cards will only be issued to adults. Any transfer of ownership must be notified, which includes those of overstamped passports. There are no foal qualifiers - our Foal Futurity at the Championship Show is open to all coloured foals sired by a CHAPS(UK) stallion or any non-coloured stallion approved by any recognised Breed Society (see appropriate Ch Show Schedule)
Q. My horse already has a passport how do I register it with CHAPS(UK)?
A. Again, use the Horse Registration Application Form, and follow the overstamp procedure as described on the form. It is illegal for horses to have more than one passport! Overstamps take approximately 10 working days. Before submitting any passport for overstamping, it should be ensured that it shows you as the registered owner as confirmed by the issuing office of the passport. Any passport that does not show the applicant as the recognised registered owner will be returned. The overstamp must reflect the registered name of the horse as shown in the passport - this may not differ, although roman numerals may be added at the end if there are already horses registered on our own database carrying the same name. Any passport that is received for overstamping where there is improper use of a prefix will be queried and possibly the application refused. Transfers of ownership of overstamped passports should be notified to CHAPS by forwarding a copy of the ownership page as signed off by the issuing office to confirm that it has been administered in the correct manner - there is no fee for this notification.
Q. How do I get a passport for my horse?
A. By completing the Horse Registration Application form as described above this will give you a passport. It is illegal to sell a horse without a passport! To produce a passport takes approximately 3 weeks providing there is no query. If you have a horse without a passport and suddenly have to move it or wish to go to a show/travel, CHAPS accepts no responsibility!
Notification of DEFRA Minimum Operating Standards for UK approved passport issuing organisations
Please be advised of the following, effective 1st February 2014, to which all PIOs must adhere:
Organisations are expected to report any offence under or breach of the Regulations cited to the horse passports enforcement authority for the area that the organisation is based so that they can decide whether enforcement action is needed. This includes where an organisation has received information suggesting that any of the following may have occurred:
i) Where a passport is applied for outside of the statutory time limit (6 months of birth or before 31 December in the year of birth, whichever is the later). This is with the exception of rescued equines and those who have purchased a horse without a passport.
ii) Where a passport is applied for when one already exists for that animal.
iii) Failure of a new owner to update owner details within 30 days. This applies regardless of the length of time the person was in possession of the equine. This includes notification of loan/lease or similar (be reminded that a passport is NOT a deed of ownership), and notification of death of the animal.
iv) Failure of an owner to return a passport for updating within 6 weeks of notification that the passport does not meet the current legal requirements.
v) Signs of unofficial changes to passport details, tampering or fraud should be discussed with the enforcement authority for that territory.
Any CHAPS issued passports that do not contain Section IX should be returned to CHAPS(UK) Admin office as soon as possible: without this update the passport is no longer valid. Fee for this update is £15.00 which includes VAT and recorded delivery return. All such passports will be returned with Section IX signed and stamped to declare the equine is not intended for human consumption.
All Duplicate and Replacement passports will have Section IX signed and stamped as the equine not intended for human consumption, as will all passports where a loss of ownership history is apparent.
In all cases where a passport is updated or issued for an equine whose original transponder (applicable to equidae identified after 30.6.2009) has failed will be signed and stamped in Section IX by the organisation to declare the equine as not intended for human consumption.
Q. I've lost my horse's passport - what do I do?
A. Your equine passport should be treated with the same care as you would treat your own! However, if it should be lost or destroyed, then the registered owner (and only the registered owner) must inform CHAPS(UK) giving details of the horse in order that the original application can be traced. A photograph of the horse must be forwarded (side on), and a fee of £50.00 should be forwarded with this declaration. A duplicate passport can then be reproduced.
Q. How do I get covering certificates for my stallion?
A. Owners/managers of CHAPS graded stallions must be up to date members, and the application form used to apply for covering certifcates (available from Administration). Covering certificates (£1.00 each) are year dated and numbered in order to keep strict track of them, and all stallion returns must be forwarded to Admin by the end of November of the year of covering. They cannot be issued retrospectively. AI nominationation forms are free of charge and must be submitted alongside a covering certificate. It is highly recommended that CEM tests are performed at the beginning of each season, and a copy of the results forwarded with the application form for covering certificates. EVA testing is also recommended. Applications made for covering certificates by non-members or horses that are not graded/licenced with CHAPS(UK) will be refused.
Q. How much...?
A. All fees are laid out on the downloadable forms and on the "Prices At A Glance" page
Q. Can I register my Appaloosa/ Spot/ Dun/ Palomino with CHAPS(UK)?
A. No refer to homepage of this website for the definition of a coloured horse in line with CHAPS(UK) criteria
Q. I cannot get hold of CHAPS(UK) on the telephone
A. Admin office phone line is open between 10.00am – 4.00pm. Keep an eye on the website for notifications of when the offices may be closed for holidays, shows, etc. A list of council members is also shown on the website with their respective job descriptions, and may be contacted at any time with regard to any queries related to their particular field
Q. I have just bought a horse with a CHAP(UK) passport, how do I transfer the ownership?
A. All passports are provided with a transfer of ownership form. The more recent passports have this page fixed within, the older ones having a loose-leaf form accompanying them. This form must be signed off by the vendor before handing over the passport, and then the form, passport and fee submitted to CHAPS(UK) for administration. This process will normally take approximately 5 working days (provided the office is open: check notifications on website for holidays, etc). It is a legal requirement that the transfer of ownership is notified to the PIO (Passport Issuing Office) within 28 days of the purchase
Q. How do I apply for a HOYS qualifier card?
A. HOYS qualifier cards must be held before entry into any CHAPS HOYS qualifier classes, and the reference number quoted on the entry form. The reverse of the membership application form contains the fields that must be completed for the application of qualifier cards. Alternatively, use the Paypal application form available on this site. Before applying, the owner must be a showing member and the horse registered with CHAPS(UK) cards will not be issued without these fields being filled in. No card will be issued to Junior members - by default they may not be the registered owner of any horse or pony with CHAPS(UK).
Q. I cannot download the forms on the website
A. Try saving the form before printing. If this does not work, please send an s.a.e. to CHAPS(UK) for hardcopies to be forwarded.

FILM None of the characters in Park Chan-wook's English-language debut, Stoker, devour a full plate of still-squirming octopus. (For that, see Park's international breakthrough, 2003's Oldboy; chances are the meal won't be duplicated in the Spike Lee remake due later this year.)Read more »

'Pete's Dragon' Replaces Michael C. Hall With Karl Urban
The Dredd star steps into a lead role in Disney's remake of the 1977 musical, joining Robert Redford, Bryce Dallas Howard and Wes Bentley.
The Dredd star steps into a lead role in Disney's remake of the 1977 musical, joining Robert Redford, Bryce Dallas Howard and Wes Bentley.
According to the Dredd star, a follow-up film might take its cues from the storyline examining the early days of the Judges.
The robot-powered police procedural from Joel Wyman and J.J. Abrams won't return for a second season
Fox has debuted the first seven minutes of J.H. Wyman's Almost Human future-cop drama, and also announced the addition of John Larroquette to the cast.
Fox unveils a new trailer for the upcoming J.J. Abrams-produced series Almost Human, starring Karl Urban, Michaely Ealy, Minka Kelly and Lili Taylor.
Fox has moved the premiere of the sci-fi/crime drama Almost Human from Monday, Nov. 4 to Sunday Nov. 17 in hopes that an NFL double-header will boost its initial audience.
As news emerges that franchise veterans Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman are returning to write Star Trek 3, rumors circulate that Paramount Pictures' quest for a director may center on Jon M. Chu and Rupert Wyatt.
Vin Diesel hangs back while aliens tear apart his mercenary captors in the latest trailer for David Twohy's Riddick, which also stars Katee Sackhoff, Karl Urban and Dave Bautista. The film opens Sept. 6.
The creator and stars of Almost Human appeared at Comic-Con International to screen the pilot of Fox's new sci-fi crime drama, which attempts to answer the question of what it means to be human.
Vin Diesel's sci-fi action star says "I bow to no one" on a new banner for David Twohy's Riddick, which also stars Karl Urban, Katee Sackhoff and Dave Bautista.
Dredd star Karl Urban insists that, despite the film's poor performance at the box office, a sequel isn't completely out of the question.
The first full-length trailer has debuted for Riddick, which reunites star Vin Diesel and writer/director David Twohy for the third big-screen installment in the sci-fi/action series.

Deborah Knoblock
I would like to welcome everyone to Gulf Island Fabrication 2008 third quarter teleconference. Please keep in mind that any statements made in this conference that are not statements of historical facts are considered forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results presented in the forward-looking statements.
These statements include the timing and extent of changes and the prices of crude oil and natural gas, the timing of new projects and the company's ability to obtain them and other details that are described under cautionary statements concerning forward-looking information and elsewhere in the company's 10-K filed March 3, 2008.
The 10-K was included as part of the company's 2007 annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission earlier this year. The company assumes no obligations to update these forward-looking statements.
Today we have Mr. Kerry Chauvin, President and CEO; and Mr. Robert Seibert, our CFO; Robin.
Robin Seibert
Thank you, Deborah. I'd like to review Gulf Island's press release issued for the third quarter of 2008. The press release consists of two pages; page one is tax and page two is the income statement. I'd like to review page two, which is the income statement first.
The following are the results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2007. Revenue was $92.7 million compared to $124.9 million. The cost of revenue was $86.3 million compared to $106.9 million. Gross margin was $6.3 million or 6.8% of revenue, compared to $18.0 million or 14.4% of revenue.
As mentioned in previous quarters, certain projects include costs for additions or improvements for our infrastructure that are necessary to fabricate and complete the project. Since additions or improvements provide future benefits to us, the cost to build these projects is capitalized. Thus costs removed from project costs and subsequently capitalized directly increases the estimated profit on the project.
Amounts included in project revenue that were capitalized are $207,000 compared to $1.9 million. Thus more benefit was received by the quarter ended September 30, 2007 opposed to 2008. The amounts included in project revenue mentioned above, capitalize net of depreciation expense.
General and administrative expenses were $2.1 million or 2.2% of revenue compared to $2.8 million or 2.2% of revenue. Operating income was $4.2 million compared to $15.2 million. Net interest income was $24,000 compared to $49,000. Other income expense was a loss of $42,000 and a loss of $5000 respectively. For both periods the losses were related to sales of miscellaneous equipment.
Income before taxes was $4.2 million compared to $15.3 million. Income tax expense was $1.4 million compared to $5.3 million. The income tax rates were 32.8% compared to 34.2%. Net income was $2.8 million compared to $10.0 million. Basic earnings per share were $0.20 compared to $0.71. Diluted earnings per share were $0.20 compared to $0.70.
Weighted average shares outstanding were $14.3 million shares compared to $14.2 million shares. Adjusted weighted average shares outstanding were $14.3 million shares compared to $14.3 million shares. Depreciation expense was $4.6 million compared to depreciation and amortization expense of $3.5 million. We declared and paid cash dividends of $0.10 for both quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.
The following are the results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to September 30, 2007. Revenue was $334.3 million compared to $371.8 million. The cost of revenue was $284.7 million compared to $331.2 million. Gross margin was $49.6 million or 14.8% of revenue, compared to $40.6 million or 10.9% of revenue.
Capitalized costs net of depreciation included in project revenue was $5.3 million compared to $4.8 million, given the larger benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. General and administrative expenses were $7.3 million or 2.2% of revenue compared to $7.9 million or 2.1% of revenue. Operating income was $42.2 million compared to $32.8 million.
Net interest income was $156,000 compared to $310,000. Interest rates were considerably lower accompanied with lower cash balances available for investing. Other income expenses were losses of $97,000 and $10,000 respectively. Again, those losses for both periods were related to the sales of miscellaneous equipment.
Income before taxes was $42.3 million compared to $33.1 million. Income tax expense was $14.1 million compared to $10.7 million. The income tax rates were 33.4% compared to 32.5%. We currently expect tax rates to be 33% to 34% for the remainder of the year. Net income was $28.1 million compared to $22.3 million. Basic earnings per share were $1.98 compared to $1.58. Diluted earnings per share were $1.97 compared to $1.56.

The Detroit Free Press reports that hundreds camped out overnight to see Sarah Palin in Grand Rapids, Mich., and by 7 a.m., an estimatef 1,500 were already waiting in line -- for a 6 p.m. event.
Remember, the media elite view Palin's popularity as an existential threat. So how are they to cover the massive crowds that turn out for Palin's book tour?
First, expect the major national outlets (NBC, New York Times, etc.) to ignore this evidence of Palin's overwhelming popularity. They've been commissioning polls especially designed to show that Palin is unpopular, and they're not going to let facts get in their way.

- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tip the duck into a large bowl and season. Scatter over the flour and toss until coated. Heat the oil in a large ovenproof casserole dish with a lid and spend a good 10 mins slowly browning the duck on all sides – try to get as much colour on it as possible. Remove the duck to a plate, then add the carrots, onion and garlic to the dish and cook for 5 mins until just starting to colour.
- Nestle the duck amongst the veg and pour over the wine. Add the herbs, season, then bring everything to the boil. Cover with a lid and place in the oven, undisturbed, for 1½ hrs. Remove from the oven and leave to cool. Lift the duck into a container, strain the sauce into another and chill both. Can be made up to 2 days ahead or frozen for up to 3 months. Once chilled, lift the fat off the sauce and set aside for the Golden potatoes (see 'Goes well with').
- To serve, heat the cleaned dish and sizzle the lardons for 5 mins. Turn up the heat, add the mushrooms and cook for 3-4 mins. Return the duck and sauce to the dish and simmer for 10 mins until the duck is heated through and the sauce has reduced a little. Serve each person a duck leg with some sauce spooned over, Golden potatoes and some green beans, if you like.

Politics Counts
Foreign Policy
"some Democrats, including Sen. Ron Wyden (D., Ore.), criticized House Republicans for slow-walking a tax overhaul."
Well, that makes Sen. Wyden a hypocrite. Why didn't the Dems pass this when the House was in session, and it was not merely symbolic?
"I've seen enough to know I've seen it all" The Democrats want to lower taxes for businesses and the Republicans said no, even if it was an empty, meaningless gesture.

It's the 20th Anniversary of the Sega Saturn. Originally released in the late spring of 1995 the Saturn was unfortunately surrounded by bad circumstance all caused by Sega itself The oddity is that from a Japanese standpoint, Sega's biggest failure in all other regions was its biggest success. Join Fred and Jam in discussing the early development, releases, and ultimate deaths of Sega's most intricate home console.

Bust-A-Move 2 Arcade Edition Review
Platform: Arcade, Playstation, Saturn, N64, Gameboy
Released: 1996-1998
Developer: Taito/Probe
Publisher: Taito/Acclaim
Digital Release? Yes, but only on the Japanese PSN (of PS1 version)
Value: $3.50-$10 (disc/cart only – all platforms), $7-$15 (complete, all but N64)/$25 (complete N64), $30-$40 (sealed)
Bust a Move 2 Arcade Edition was a popular title released on the Sony Playstation, Sega Saturn and N64. While the concentration of these systems was to move gaming into 3D, Bust a Move was a game that kept its feet firmly in the 2D realm, and it still does to this day. All versions are ports of the very popular arcade game and all versions are arguably fantastic ports, bringing that vintage arcade experience home. For this review I'll specifically be covering the Playstation version.
I have always enjoyed the Bust a Move series. I have played the majority of the entries on home consoles and arcades. The most memorable game from my younger days was Bust a Move 2. This was literally in every arcade in my area. It ran on Taito's F3 hardware and could be found in dedicated arcade cabinets and later the Neo Geo cabinets which were becoming increasingly popular. Bust a Move 2 was one of those arcade game where I would literally watch the demo screen over and over again even after I ran out of money to sink into the cabinet. There was something rather hypnotic about watching, maybe because I have always had a fascination with arcade puzzle titles, or maybe its because I'm a utter fan boy for Taito games, especially the Bubble Bobble games of which this series is a spin off from.
Now & Then: Mortal Kombat 3
Switching It Up
A lot happened both in the talent pool of Mortal Kombat players and in the game design overall between the release of Mortal Kombat II and Mortal Kombat 3 (MK3). For starters there was a mass exodus of on screen talent due to royalty disputes, so almost no one from the original two games returned for the third release. In addition, Boon and his team were trying to turn Mortal Kombat into a viable fighting game with things no one had ever seen before and mechanics that could compete with the massive rush of fighters in arcades. The game was completely Americanized, with all hints of Eastern influence including symbols, locales, and the soundtrack completely absent without a trace and instead replaced by urban stages, 90s hip-hop soundtracks, and cyborgs replaced the signature ninjas. These locations were now composed of pre-rendered 3D backgrounds and the character sprites were almost totally digitized as opposed to the digitized/hand drawn hybrid of the previous games. Along with it came an overhaul of the controls, including combos and a "run" button to address rightful claims that defensive players ruled the previous title. It's all one giant 90s metaphor but that doesn't change the fact that MK3 (and it's update Ultimate MK3 or UMK3) stands as the moment I felt the series went into the mainstream fighter territory. Couple this with the fact that it was on just about every console that existed at the time, still dominated arcades, and had more content than rival Street Fighter II could ever dream to do with its iterations and I see why it's creator Ed Boon's favorite. Mortal Kombat 3 definitely upped the ante.
Die Hard Trilogy Review
Platform: Playstation, Saturn, Arcade
Released: 1996
Developer: Probe
Publisher: Fox Interactive
Digital Release? No
Price: $3.92 (PS1)/$15.99 (Saturn) – Disc Only, $5.49 (PS1)/$24.99 (Saturn) – Complete, $14.95 (PS1)/$62.97 (Saturn) – Sealed according to Price Charting
Die Hard Trilogy was released in the early days of the Sony PlayStation and was generally well received. We were all excited for this because 3D was becoming big as developers looked to leave the 2D style of game in favour of the blocky 3D models. Also this is Die Hard, one of the coolest film franchises ever, so why wouldn't people want to play this? Well time has passed and the dust has now settled. Is this game really as good as we remember, or has it gone the way of the film franchise?
Alien Trilogy Review
Platform: Playstation, Saturn, Arcade
Released: 1996
Developer: Probe
Publisher: Acclaim
Digital Release? No
Price: $5.75 (PS1)/$11.64 (Saturn) – Disc Only, $14.47 (PS1)/$21.99 (Saturn) – complete, $74.99 (PS1)/$34.99 (Saturn) – Sealed according to Price Charting
Alien Trilogy was developed and released in 1996 as the bigger budget, larger team, and more experienced group making a full scale Doom clone alongside the presumed B-Team at Probe Software. That other team was set to make Die Hard With a Vengeance to release alongside the film and eventually widened scope to release the Die Hard Trilogy. Two games, each with its own take on large popular franchises in the 20th Century Fox vaults, and trying to hit it big. Did Alien Trilogy succeed by cloning the more popular franchise and game genre? Find out after the jump.
Podcast: Alien Trilogy and Die Hard Trilogy Game Club
The better title for this episode was probably "Because 90's", but either way Fred and Jam tackle six massive movies made into two interesting games by one single studio. Both released in 1996, Probe Software's Alien Trilogy was a re-writing of three movies in one single genre (Doom clone) whereas Die Hard Trilogy was a compilation of three different genres (3rd person shooter, light gun shooter, and driving game) based on each game. The results are interesting and stems some interesting conversation on these powerhouse trilogies.

Alien Trilogy Quick Look
This month's game club is Die Hard Trilogy and Alien Trilogy, two short "trilogy" titles released by Fox Interactive in the 32-bit era. We have already looked at one of the games, Die Hard Trilogy, and here for you is the quick look of Alien Trilogy
Policenauts Review
Platform: PC-9821, 3DO, Playstation, Saturn (Japan Only)
Released: 1994-1996 (depending on platform, Japan Only)
Developer: Konami
Publisher: Konami
Digital Release? No
Price: Unavailable, game never sold in US or UK
Fred's Take
Building off of what Kojima had started in Snatcher, I feel that Policenauts is an attempt to revise the mistakes and setbacks of that original attempt and create a spiritual successor that flows more like a game. Technically, I guess that's what Policenauts is, unfortunately the solution appears to be making it a point-and-click adventure and adding in more (and more frustrating) shooting sequences. While I have to commend the efforts by having a more genuine story – although the similarities to the first two Lethal Weapon films is undeniable – that flows naturally and keeps you intrigued, this game has so many walls to break through to get to that story that it's best read in a walkthrough or watched on YouTube. For this reason, and the countless other reasons that prevent most of us outside of a Japanese speaking region, I can't recommend Policenauts as a coveted loss treasure we never got.

Retro Game Night: Crypt Killer and Mad Dog McCree
This week for Retro Game Night we go all light gun shooters (yes, they can be captured and streamed).
First up is arcade 3D shooter Crypt Killer, which was horror themed and moved from arcades to Saturn and the PS1 (Saturn version shown). Sorry about the sound on the game being much louder than my voice, it was live and no one told me.
Next up is the 1990 "classic" Mad Dog McCree, one of the first laserdisc arcade games that was almost perfectly ported to the Nintendo Wii. Here it is in all its glory (and in 720p!)
If you want to check out Retro Game Night, we do it every Friday night at 11:30 pm est on our Twitch channel (twitch.tv/gh101). You can also follow us for random live broadcasts and check that page for our ongoing replay of Resident Evil HD Remaster on the PS3, which comes to the US on January 20.

He's also worked on full projects with producers Nottz and Don Cannon.
Most recently, Roth was dissed by Eminem on Marshall Mathers LP 2. Em mentioned Roth on "Asshole", but Roth came away with no hard feelings, and rather said that he "…thought it was pretty amazing". He also released the second instalment in his The GreenHouse Effect mixtape series, and is expected to drop his second studio-album Retro Hash in early 2014. Stay tuned.
