In a unique twist on the Osama bin Laden saga, Iran's intelligence minister says Tehran has "genuine intelligence showing that the terrorist leader died of disease long before the alleged raid" by the United States, the Iranian semiofficial FARS news agency reports.
"We have accurate information that bin Laden died of illness some time ago," Heidar Moslehi said on the sidelines of a Cabinet meeting Sunday, FARS reports. "If the U.S. military and intelligence apparatus have really arrested or killed bin Laden, why don't they show him (his dead body)? Why have they thrown his corpse into the sea?" Moslehi asked, according to a TV report, FARS says.
By releasing such "false news," he says, the White House is trying to overshadow "regional awakening." Moslehi is quoted as saying U.S. officials resort to such PR campaigns to divert attention from domestic problems as well as their "fragile" economic situation, FARS reports.

Iran's intelligence chief says Osama Bin Laden was already dead before last weeks raid. He says they have "documents" that can prove it.

So Iran can proove it huh. I would not believe anything they have to say. Remember that this is the country that claimed to have built a ufo, and took a picture of it. To bad the picture looks like it is out of an 80's late night b movie. For those unfamiliar with the iran ufo here is a link to the story.

Rescue! - the old Mac game from the early 90s
Anyone else play this gem back in the day on their old Macs? It was shareware but there really wasn't any limitations if you didn't contribute money. I remember eagerly anticipating the next versions. It used sounds and effects from TNG, but Paramount got on the developer's case and the game had to be modified.
You had to warp around to different planets and rescue colonists before the planets were destroyer by Warbirds, Ferengi, and later, the Borg. You could use tractor beams, phasers, photon torpedos, etc., but had to manage the ships power with all the warping around. Awesome game!
Here's a wiki and there are some background links on that page.
It's not you I hate, Cardassian. I hate what I became... because of you. --Miles O'Brien in "The Wounded"

Very happy customers
We were looking for a relaxing getaway.
We were satisfied on every level. The surroundings were lovely, and a pleasant country stroll to lovely pubs in Kelvedon. The staff were very good, if sometimes a bit busy, and just the right level of attentiveness - helpful but never fussy. Really happy with our stay, and we felt the price was reasonable.

Very quiet location and a very pleasant stay
Very impressive drive way and gorgeous old mansion, we stayed in a two bedroom apartment above leisure building.
It was very quiet and the room had everything we needed including microwave and small oven with fridge and things you might need to knock up a quick meal. We only used the kitchenette for breakfast as we ate out in Colchester. The staff were very friendly and I would recommend a stay here. It does look like they do a few wedding parties and I guess that may make a difference to a stay. All in all a very pleasant stay.

Photos of Sienna Miller and Channing Tatum Promoting GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra in Sydney
Sienna Sees the Sights of Sydney Before Her Press Duty Calls
Sienna Miller continued her fun in Sydney over the weekend, joining two guy friends for lunch on Saturday. She continued making the restaurant rounds yesterday, when she met another pal for an afternoon meal before joining Channing Tatum and his new wife Jenna Dewan for dinner and a reception at Paramount Studios. Sienna and Channing were reunited earlier this morning at a press call with the rest of the GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra cast. Their movie has potential to be one of the Summer's big blockbusters, so Sienna and Channing can probably look forward to a few more weeks of promotional photo ops as they tour the world together.

Is Dexter's Deb Doomed? Did Buffy Reunion Slay You? Is Dome Abduction Pointless? And More Qs!
Is Dexter's Deb Doomed? Did Buffy Reunion Slay You? Is Dome Abduction Pointless? And More Qs!
We've got questions, and you've (maybe) got answers! With another week of TV gone by, we're lobbing queries left and right about shows including Dexter, Warehouse 13, Mistresses and So You Think You Can Dance!
1 | On 666 Park Avenue, did you get the impression from Sasha's anguished cry of "Mother!" that she might not have been headed for the new and fabulous life her parents promised — but instead, some kind of eternal damnation – when the magic staircase began to close? And did Olivia allow that to happen out of loyalty to Gavin or because she's too afraid to defy him?
2 | Which Grown Ups 2 star's Disney Channel drop-in was more ham-handed: Adam Sandler serving punch (and digs at Kevin James, like a 'tween would know who that is) on Jessie, or Chris Rock's turkey (OK, duck) of an A.N.T. Farm visit?
3 | Could Dexter's props department have found a cheaper-looking bench for LaGuerta's memorial? And based on this week's beer-swilling, coke-snorting, dead-eyed premiere, there's no way this season can end well for Deb, right?
RELATED | Dexter Season 8 Series Finale Spoilers — Dex and Deb Reunited?
4 | What, what, what was Ray Donovan wife Paula Malcolmson going for with that accent? And how excited were you when you finally figured out that Ray's daughter Bridget was Paige from Brothers & Sisters?
5 | OK, Killing watchers, what do you think — is Kallie dead or alive? Is Pastor Mike really the Big Bad of this season, or is he another false lead? And with Goldie the Pimp and Joe Mills both seemingly off the hook for the crime, now seems like a good time to ask: How many red herrings is too many in a 12-episode season?
6 | On Devious Maids, if Marisol's main purpose in life is to prove her son didn't kill Flora — and to find out what nefarious goings-on at the Powell residence led to the girl's death — why would she continue to work for Taylor rather than trying to score full-time employment with Adrian and Evelyn, who've been quite vocal about their need for a new housekeeper?
7 | Can you remember a single dish made by Food Network Star's pieman Rodney that the judges really liked? And if you were Bob Tuschman, which of the remaining contestants' shows would you be most likely to greenlight at this point?
8 | Drop Dead Diva fans, were you hoping Jane would be a little more torn between Owen and Grayson after that kiss?
9 | If Anne winds up winning HGTV Star and gets her own show, can she at least agree to tone down her hair color, away from Pantone 485/"Stop Sign Red"? And while we appreciate product placement (Volvo!), wasn't the plug-in air freshener an odd match for a design show?
RELATED | Spoilers on Parenthood, Nashville, Once, Walking Dead, Girl Meets World and More!
10 | Really now, what is the larger purpose of Under the Dome's Junior/Angie storyline? Did the need to establish that one of the residents is loony tunes outweigh the need for Britt Robertson to play a more active role in the main narrative?
11 | Did Flynn's collapse on Major Crimes, right there in the murder room, make you flash back to Chief Delk's heart attack on The Closer?
12 | Did Switched at Birth's coffee guy Jace redeem himself a little in this week's episode? And are you not feeling any sparks between Bay and Ty?
13 | How fantastic was The Fosters' convo between Lena and Jude?

Collapsed Vein
What are the symptoms of a collapsed vein?
No flow: I assume you mean a vein that recently had a needle or iv. Veins may collapse or blow when fluid goes through them or blood is drawn from them.

Venospasm: Veins don't like to be irritated with things like needles. Usually, when someone is talking about a collapsed vein they mean that they have tried to draw blood or start an IV and the vein has gone into spasm as a result of the irritation. The result is that the needle either isn't able to go into the vein or else it goes in but there is no blood return. With time the vein will relax and reopen. ...Read moreGet help from a doctor now ›

This should resolve over about one week. ...Read moreGet help from a doctor now ›
Vein collapse during blood work? Why does this happen?

I'll be riding the NYC Century Bike tour on 9-7-08, and we (2 of us) will need to rent a bike for that ride as well as 4 more days of transport in the city.
Any recommendations for a favorite LBS that has a good selection of hybrid/straight-bar road bikes would be much appreciated.
Looking forward to the big adventure!

SEATTLE (AP) — A group of University of Washington students wants to find a way back to the days when students could afford to work their way through college.
They are taking their case to the Legislature, calling for more financial aid and lower tuition.
The plan is laid out in a new report titled "Meet Us in the Middle: Affordability for the Working Student," The Seattle Times reported Tuesday.
The report assumes many students will put themselves through college, with little help from their parents. But because the cost of college is so high now, it's no longer possible for students to pay their own way without large student loans.
"What we feel has been under-recognized is the amount a student directly contributes to their education," said Michael Kutz, president of student government at UW.
Including living expenses, the cost of a year of school for an in-state student living on the UW-Seattle campus is about $27,000.
Tuition increases have hit low- and middle-income students particularly hard. Low-income students rarely receive enough financial aid to pay all the bills, and middle-income students often just miss the aid cutoff and their parents may not be able to help pay their college bills, students say.
"College is not affordable until students from every income group can afford the full cost of education by working," Kutz said.
A student who works 40 hours a week in the summer and 20 hours a week throughout the school year can earn only about $11,500, before taxes, students estimate. At the state's minimum wage, currently $9.32 an hour, a student would have to work 54 hours a week for a year to pay for one year at the university.
"They are really raising an important issue ... which is that, not all that long ago, a student could work a summer job and some part-time work, and pay for college," said state Rep. Gerry Pollet, D-Seattle, vice chairman of the House Higher Education Committee.
State Sen. Michael Baumgartner, R-Spokane, called student-loan debt a threat to the American dream. He wants to see tuition at state schools cut nearly in half:
"The model we need to get back to is the no-debt model," he said.

My DD had her first birthday party this weekend. Everything was going fine until my DD's father's mother showed up to the party. It was very apparent that she had been drinking a lot. My DD didn't want to go to her, but she made her. She ( DD ) was crying like crazy. She was forcing my baby to stay with her. So she keeps saying things like " Its not my fault you don't know me" to my DD. That this point she has taken my DD outside to were her son is ( DD father). I tried to let them bond for a while but she was still crying (I mean big time). So I went to get her. And his mother had the biggest attitude with me. And will not give me my baby. So she ( the mother) is trying to argue with me. Of course I was not arguing back because she was drunk, plus that is his mother. She never calls to check DD EVER. So to make a long story short she gets mad and leaves.
After the party we clean up I tell DF to please go check on his mother to make sure that she is okay. He left fine and comes back mad and drunk. You see his mother doesn't want us together anyway. She thinks that I'm trying to change her son. I am. He really wants to be a great father and boyfriend. But if he is not drinking or smoking she thinks that he is acting funny. No, it's called being SOBER. I understand that she doesn't like me and I'm cool with that. Her acting like I am trying to keep my DD away from her just is not true. I just can't have her around my baby like that. Why would you show up to a baby birthday party drunk anyway? I didn't want to come in between DF and his mother but I don't know what else to do.

No, there may hope that GungHo America can publish it digitally (as they are with Ragnarok Odyssey) or that Ghostlight could pick it up (although Ghostlight is currently busy on the Devil Survivor games so that might be less likely) but there is no news yet.hoktomaster said:any news of this in the uk?
This says it all.Ryumoau said:i have to admit that this game just looks meh compared to Odysessy. That fact that its on psp doesn't help either. Wish publishers would just give it up and put these games on Vita with higher graphics and trophy support.
It's very much like FFT and TO, so it will probably go over well.lolwhoops said:I actually want this game, but money is tight and the spending season is upon us, so I hope it doesn't come and go too quick. I could use a game that treads more familiar and enjoyable (to me at least) ground in the SRPG sub-genre. Growlanser, while pretty decent, didn't grip me and Gungnir turned me off before too long. Hopefully this tickles the right spot.

Macs that come with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion have got Internet Recovery, that allows you to reinstall Mac OS X even if you haven't got it installed in the hard disk. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
To start in Internet Recovery, hold Command, Option (Alt) and R keys while your Mac is starting. Then, follow the steps to reinstall Mac OS X.
If you don't see any drive to install OS X, your hard drive isn't formatted. Close the Mac OS X installer and open Disk Utility. You have to select the hard drive at the top of the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the drive with Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as format. Finally, close Disk Utility and install Mac OS X. See > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html

This is a pre-1923 historical reproduction that was curated for quality. Quality assurance was conducted on each of these books in an attempt to remove books with imperfections introduced by the digitization process.

We believe this work is culturally important and have elected to bring the book back into print as part of our continuing commitment to the preservation of printed works worldwide.
As Samuel Johnson said in his famous epitaph on his Irish-born and educated friend, Goldsmith ornamented whatever he touched with his pen. A professional writer who died in his prime, Goldsmith wrote the best comedy of his day, She Stoops to Conquer (1773). Amongst a plethora of other fine works, he also wrote The Vicar of Wakefield (1766), which, despite major plot inconsistencies and the intrusion of poems, essays, tales, and lectures apparently foreign to its central concerns, remains one of the most engaging fictional works in English. One reason for its appeal is the character of the narrator, Dr. Primrose, who is at once a slightly absurd pedant, an impatient traditional father of teenagers, a Job-like figure heroically facing life's blows, and an alertly curious, helpful, loving person. Another reason is Goldsmith's own mixture of delight and amused condescension (analogous to, though not identical with, Laurence Sterne's in Tristram Shandy and Johnson's in Rasselas, both contemporaneous) as he looks at the vicar and his domestic group, fit representatives of a ludicrous but workable world. Never married and always facing financial problems, he died in London and was buried in Temple Churchyard.

Boomer Esiason says Jets should 'cut Tim Tebow'
|3 years ago
|class of '04 - away - #1
1388 pageviews
25 comments
The non-battle battle between Tim Tebow and Mark Sanchez for snaps as Jets quarterback remains, annoyingly, at the epicenter of NFL training camp. And it's not going to go away, either.
Unless, of course, the Jets take the advice of CBS' Boomer Esiason, speaking on WFAN's "Boomer and Carton Show" Monday morning, and "cut Tim Tebow."
"If I was the Jets you want to know what I would do? I would cut Tim Tebow. I really would" Esiason said. "I'm telling you right now I would, and I'll tell you why I would: it's just not in any way, shape or form benefiting this team. I just don't see how it benefits this team.
"I just think this whole thing -- at least from my perspective right now in relation to who Mark Sanchez is, your starting quarterback -- is a major mistake."
It's a bold statement from Boomer, but not one likely to ever morph into a realistic situation. Whether or not Tebow can throw (and Boomer points out he can't) is irrelevant to what Rex Ryan and Tony Sparano want to do on offense. They plan to utilize him in the Wildcat offense and ostensibly make him a dangerous red-zone threat. Plus, if Sanchez struggles, Tebow presents a somewhat viable alternative.
And Rex has Tebow's back even with training camp struggles.
"I have not been disappointed with Tim at all," Ryan said Monday, per Manish Mehta of New York Daily News. "Once you go to a live situation, that's going to elevate his play. It's not just that he's throwing the ball, because he is such a weapon when it takes off with it."
And there's one more reason to keep Tebow around, which Boomer used to caveat his statement about the Jets dumping Tebow: the leadership potential he brings to the locker room.
"Unless one thing I'd say is you've got a bunch of lunatics in the locker room as evidenced by the words of Antonio Cromartie and Chaz Schilens coming back and Antonio Cromartie basically saying to Chaz Schilens I wish you didn't go to the media," Esiason said. "And then you've got Santonio Holmes there who basically thinks he's the greatest in football and he'll tell you himself. It's like the self-promotion of Deion Sanders, it's ridiculous. The reason is you may want Tebow on this team, specifically and for one reason and one reason only and that's the character issue."
Character is actually a pretty good reason to hang onto Tebow: a quick look at quotes coming from the Broncos throughout 2011 indicates just how well he works within the locker room. Players gravitate towards Tebow the same reason that fans do -- he appears to work miracles and no one understands why or how in the slightest.
Ryan is hoping Tebow can do that for the Jets in 2012, plus beef up the their red-zone efficiency, and it's why Boomer's request won't ever happen, regardless of whether or not he's right about the Jets dumping Tebow.

I'm not a Tebow fan, but I wish Tebow to tell him and the other critics to "shut the fu*k up" and REALLY speak on how he feels. Dude is being too PG. Have some damn guts against them, this turning the other cheek sh*t is getting played out. Christians can speak their mind too.

Egyptian judge orders block of YouTube over anti-Islam film
CAIRO — A Cairo court on Saturday ordered the government to block access to YouTube for 30 days because the video-sharing site carried the anti-Islam film that caused deadly riots last year.
Judge Hassouna Tawfiq ordered YouTube blocked for carrying the movie trailer, which he described as "offensive to Islam and the Prophet (Muhammad)."
He made the ruling in the Egyptian capital where the first protests against the film erupted in September before spreading to more than 20 countries, killing more than 50 people.
The ruling, however, can be appealed and, based on precedent, might not be enforced.
The 14-minute advertisement for the movie "Innocence of Muslims" portrays the Prophet Muhammad, the central figure of Islam, as a religious fraud, womanizer and pedophile. It was produced in the United States by an Egyptian-born Christian who became a U.S. citizen.
Egypt's new constitution includes a ban on insulting "religious messengers and prophets." Broadly worded blasphemy laws were also in effect under former President Hosni Mubarak before his ouster in a popular revolt two years ago.
Similar orders to censor pornographic websites deemed offensive have not been enforced in Egypt because of high costs associated with technical applications. Blocking YouTube might be easier to enforce, though it also can be circumvented by active Internet users.
Rights activists say Egypt's Ministry of Communications and Information Technology has appeared unwilling to enforce such bans.
Human rights lawyer Gamal Eid said the decision to ban YouTube stems in large part from a lack of knowledge among judges about how the Internet works.

Specflow and Selenium
Here at cmgroup we have been working on some HTML prototyping. Whilst doing this we have been working on improving our automated testing. This blog entry outlines our strategy and how we have achieved it.
The Problem
Our requirements for the automated testing were to cover:
- Multi browser / platform testing of HTML output
- Write the test scripts in a language suitable for product management
- Leverage the testing framework provided by VS2010
The Solution
The following technology was chosen. MSTest for obvious reasons; the requirement was there to use it. We chose Specflow as it is a very nice BDD framework using Gherkin scripts. I have posted examples of its use previously on this blog and it meets the 2nd requirement above. Thirdly we chose to use selenium as it provides some very good dotnet bindings and provides us with the ability to test cross browser and platform.
Our test setup is shown in the following diagram:
(Lower Right Node should be Vista x64)
Firstly we have selenium standalone running on two nodes, one Vista and one Windows 7, so we can test on different browsers and versions. We are using the current beta version of Selenium2, which currently has some stability problems. There is a push to fix a whole load of bugs this week in selenium and we are hoping beta2 is released shortly.
We are also running against real browsers using the Chrome Driver, Firefox Driver and Internet Explorer Driver, so these two nodes have to have a desktop available, i.e. A user logged in at all times, which is a only a minor pain.
The unit tests are then run within MSTest on the build controller, executing the Specflow tests, which in turn drive the .NET version of Selenium RC, which executes operations on the remote instances of selenium server.
Writing the Tests
A typical SpecFlow scenario would be written something like the following:
Scenario Outline: Display Next Prev Buttons
Given I am using <browser> on <seleniumhost>
And A course exists
When I launch the course
Then The course is launched in my default browser
And The next and previous buttons are visible in the browser
| browser | seleniumhost | description |
| ie | 192.168.10.126 | IE8 on Win 7 64bit |
| ie | 192.168.10.127 | IE7 on Vista 64bit |
| firefox | 192.168.10.126 | FF3.6 on Win 7 64bit |
| chrome | 192.168.10.126 | Chrome 8 on Win 7 64bit |
This sets up the tests to execute against the listed hosts, using the specifed browsers. This scenario would be run 4 times against with a test on IE7 on Vista.
We are presuming that the next beta of selenium2 and the final version are going to solve our stability problems. We shall then have a great test environment for BDD, able to test our apps using the MSTest framework and BDD and believe this will give us a greater confidence in our apps meeting the User Acceptance Criteria our Product Owners are providing.
For more information on selenium and specflow, here are some links:
BDD with Gherkin for WPF Apps
If you've read my post on the value of automated UI testing, you'll know that I value it over Unit Testing. That's not to say Unit Testing isn't important, just that there is greater business value in Automated UI testing, if you can get it to work for you.
In this post I'm going to describe how SpecFlow could be used to achieve this with WPF applications. I'm not going to pretend that my small example here is going to solve problems of applying this to large projects, but hopefully it will provide a start point, a trigger to further investigation and establishing some best practices, appropriate for the product being tested.
Demo App
Firstly then, a quick description of my Demo App. If you've read some of my other posts you will be familiar with the groundbreaking WPF media player. It allows user to select a folder, display the media in that folder and play that media:
Unit Tests in VS
Unit Testing is now an integrated part of Visual Studio and has been for a number of years. Everyone reading this is no doubt very familiar with this, so I won't venture to explain it. Suffice it to say, that ideally we want to do UI testing in a testign framework that is well supported in Visual Studio. SpecFlow supports both MSTest as well as nUnit.
Introduction to Gherkin
Specifying User Acceptance Criteria for stories is always in danger of being ambiguous. Capturing them in a standardised notation often helps make thes acceptance criteria more explicit. Whilst at Nokia, our sprint planning sessions involved the PO describing the story and then the team defining UACs as Gherkin scenarios.
Gherkin is a simple notation based on scenarios that can be written using Given – When – Then clauses. Given being the system state, When being a user action and Then being the outcome. Gherkin is 'Business Readable', so can be fully understood by the PO and the business.
Introduction to UI Automation
Microsoft have helped matters in testing UI written in WPF through their UI Automation API. This API enables us to drive WPF applications and check content of controls. Again, I am not going into too much detail as there is more than enough elsewhere and to be honest I have only recently started looking at the UI Automation API. The reason I bring it up here is that we need a way of pulling Unit Tests with MS Test, UI Automation to drive the UI and Gherkin to allow a simple notation for defining Scenarios and ultimately User Acceptance Criteria. Enter SpecFlow….
Introduction to SpecFlow
Lifted straight from their website: "SpecFlow aims at bridging the communication gap between domain experts and developers by binding business readable behavior specifications to the underlying implementation."
Specflow is designed for .NET, supports MS Test and integrates with Visual Studio. On initial inspection, this looked like what I had been looking for. I shall now go through an example of writing tests using SpecFlow for the application described above. There is obviously plenty more information on the various product web sites so I would advise going there rather than copying my example. This example is here to fire the imagination, if that is what you are after.
Add a feature
We are starting from an empty Test Project in Visual Studio and adding a feature is as simple as selecting the "SpecFlow Feature File" on "Add New Item". The dialog also includes Event Definition files and Step Definition files, which we will use later.
This adds a new .feature file which contains a basic feature and scenario. I edited this to add a couple of scenarios which should be self explanatory. After all, that is the purpose of Gherkin:
Here you can see the Scenarios as Give, When, Then steps. Once this file has been added the tests will build and run as inconclusive. Each scenario forms a test case. SpecFlow does some magic in generating the code for the feature file. What must be done now is the writing of any setup / tear down code and methods for each step.
Add Event Defs
An event definition file can be added which has methods for executing code at various stages during the running of scenarios and tests. In our case we just want to kick off the application on each feature test and kill it after:
Add Steps for feature
The bulk of the coding must be done in the Steps Code. Taking the example of the first scenario we want to write 3 steps for the given / when / then clauses in the gherkin:
As you can see, SpecFlow uses attributes to match steps to methods, really very simple. Most of this code is the neccessary boilerplate for UI Automation, which leads us on to how we might deal with this in a real application
Next Steps
The first thing I noticed, which was really to do with the UI Automation, was the amount of boilerplate that was needed. In a real application, this would get significantly more complex than this exmaple, very quickly. Ideally each View would have a UI Automation wrapper written for it that would encapsulate the UI Automation code, allowing the test developer to call single methods to perform opearions on the UI and to check values in controls. I am guessing that at this point it would be worth investigating F# to do this, as it seems that a more functional language may help in this. Any comments on that will be gratefully recieved.

"Tiny Prints has provided great customer service and consistent phenomenal quality whenever we order our family invitations or cards. I continue to use this company for all my stationary needs again and again!"
"I appreciate that it is flat/matte print and not photo paper, which is more delicate, is shiny and shows any imperfections easier. It's a muted tone, but very beautiful alowing the pictures to pop."
"This was the perfect style for a fun picture of our kids. I thought the design on the back was cute too, although we normally go with a blank back so we can write a personal note. We chose the sunshine coloring which helped darken the background and looked good with the white writing. The quality was awesome as always. Our picture had snow in it, so we got the silver envelopes, which were also very nice."
"We love how our Christmas card for our first year of marriage came out! We have always loved birch trees and we actually are growing one from a little seedling...we call it our "wedding tree". The birch design is just so unique, I've never seen another Christmas card like it. The cardstock is very sturdy and the quality of the photo print is very clear. I like that I had the option of putting an extra photo on the back of the card because I got to include that one last photo I couldn't fit on the front."
"Appreciate the simple design of the card, providing a overlay of text to the print that did not compete with the image. Thick paper stock gives a quality feel to the card. Can't wait to address and send out this weekend to family and friends!"

Infielder was losing starts to Reyes
Updated: July 30, 2003, 10:05 AM ETAssociated Press
NEW YORK -- The New York Mets traded seldom-used infielder Rey Sanchez to the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday for minor league outfielder Kenny Kelly -- a former college quarterback at Miami.
SanchezThis is meaningful not because of Sanchez, who is one of the most forgettable fantasy players in the game - no power, no steals, you get the idea - but for other reasons. The Mariners took Sanchez because Carlos Guillen, a top 10 shortstop in the AL, is hurt and went on the disabled ...

Carla Kneipp
Thank you, very much, Sarah. Good morning, everyone. This is Carla Kneipp, Vice President of Investor Relations. Welcome you to our Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012 Earnings Conference Call. Thank you for joining us today.
David McClanahan, President and CEO; Scott Prochazka, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer; and Gary Whitlock, Executive Vice President and CFO, will discuss our fourth quarter and full year 2012 results, and provide highlights on other key activities. We also have other members of management who may assist in answering questions following the prepared remarks.
Our earnings press release, Form 10-K and supplemental materials are posted on our website, centerpointenergy.com, under the Investors section. Supplemental materials are for informational purposes and we will not be referring to them during the prepared remarks. I remind you that any projections or forward-looking statements made during this call are subject to the cautionary statements on forward-looking information in the company's filings with the SEC.
Before David begins, I would like to mention that a replay of this call will be available through Wednesday, March 6. To access the replay, please call (855) 859-2056 or (404) 537-3406, and enter the conference ID number 71670374. You can also listen to an online replay on our website and we will archive the call for at least 1 year.
And with that, I will now turn the call over to David.
David M. McClanahan
Thank you, Carla. And good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for joining us today and thank you for your interest in CenterPoint Energy.
This morning, we reported full year earnings of $417 million or $0.97 per diluted share as compared to $1.36 billion or $3.17 per diluted share in 2011.
I'd like to remind you of the unusual items that occurred during each year.
In 2012, we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge, as well as a non-cash pretax gain from an acquisition. In 2011, we recorded the results of the final resolution of our true-up appeal. Excluding the effects of these unusual items, net income for 2012 would have been $581 million or $1.35 per diluted share, compared to $546 million or $1.27 per diluted share in 2011. Using the same basis that we use when providing guidance, full year adjusted earnings would have been $1.25 per diluted share in 2012, compared to $1.20 for 2011.
Our regulated electric and gas utilities benefited from strong service territories, timely rate recovery mechanisms and effective expense management. Our Midstream and Energy Services businesses performed well, given the current market environment of low natural gas prices and minimal geographic price differentials.
Our financial results once again highlight the strength of our balanced energy delivery portfolio.
We are looking forward to another good year in 2013. We are stronger financially than we've ever been and have good investment opportunities across all of our businesses.
Last year, we celebrated our 10th anniversary as a standalone independent public company. When we first became CenterPoint Energy, we indicated we would focus on domestic energy delivery with a balanced portfolio of electric and natural gas businesses. Further, we committed to building a company that provides a competitive dividend with growth. 10 years later, we are proud of our accomplishments and remain committed to these objectives.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the employees who have made the past 10 years a success. I am very proud that our employees stayed focused on and believed in the vision, values and strategy that have come to define us. Without their hard work and dedication, we would not be where we are today.
Now I'll ask Scott Prochazka, our Chief Operating Officer, to update you on our business unit performance and our expectations for 2013.
Scott Prochazka
Thank you, David, and good morning to everyone.
I will start with our largest business, Houston Electric, which had a good year. Core operating income was $492 million compared to $496 million in 2011. The modest decline was due to more normal weather when compared to the extreme heat we experienced in the prior year, as well as the adverse effects from new rates implemented in September of 2011. These impacts were almost entirely offset by a number of positive factors, including a continued strong Houston economy marked by the addition of more than 44,000 new metered customers, ongoing recognition of deferred equity returns associated with the company's true-up proceeds and decreased labor and benefit costs.
Right-of-way revenues approached $27 million, which is substantially above historical levels of $2 million to $3 million per year. The increased interest in our right-of-way easements is another sign of the strong economic activity in Houston.

2006 Mazda MAZDASPEED6 Sport 4dr Sedan AWD Review
Fun, practical, and fast.
Stiff clutch if its a early 06 model. The turbos are known to go bad and smoke.
For The Price No Other Car Even Comes Close To Comparing To This Car. — Performance - Car drives and handles great. Plenty of power. AWD helps slippery situations. Also this car stops on the dime. 12.5" rotors front and rear. I have added hawk racing brake pads. The car handles pretty good. I have it dropped on tein springs. The ride isnt too stiff at all and thats the downside of its handling. There is a lot of un-needed body roll when pushing it hard through turns. Nothing a stiffer coilover setup wont take care of. The clutch in this car is very catchy and takes patience everytime you drive it. Also the gear box is rather notchy. Build quality - Average. Lots of queaks and rattles inside and outside the car. I do have all solid and added motor mounts. The balance shaft has been removed from the bottom of the motor. This added a lot of vibs as well. Idle had to be increase to 1100 to counter act this. Appearance - Exterior looks great. I added a few exterior mods to the outside. Interior is great. Fit and fiinish is nice. Seats are pretty comfortable. Also has adjustable steering wheel. Cost of ownership - Not too bad. just normal matienance. I change the oil early with amsoil 5w-40 synthetic. Started it early at 30k miles. Gas mileage is 19-21mpg depending on driving habbits. I have only been to the dealer a few times. Once was for the a/c compressor pulley going bad. Once for a bent rear axle. My last visit was for the clutch tsb which was replaced for free under warranty. Clutch is a lot smoother. Fun factor - The car is a blast to drive. It acts just like a normal car in every day driving. But as soon as you want to push it hard it gets excited.

Nothing, except maybe the cost of fuel, if you're a lead foot.
Balanced, In Every Way. — Ridiculous performance. Even with AWD and dynamic stability control it still wants to break traction and can give a little bit of power oversteer in the wet. Appearance? Well these things are always subjective, but I think it's sex on wheels. Can quite easily get over 500km out of the 65Lt tank, but when you start putting your foot down and using all the 190kw it can chew the juice pretty quick. Fun to drive? Whadda you reckon? It's the perfect balance of luxury and performance and will give a LOT of cars a run for their money.

Mazdaspeed6 — Best car I have ever owned. Never had an issue with quality or any engine problems. The turbo 2.3L goes with the 6-speed transmission and AWD very well. This car never misses a beat and I would not rather have any other car on earth. Mazdaspeed6, the most fun car you will ever own.

My Zoom-zoom! — No dislikes here except it could have more horsepower if they would have turboed the 3.0L instead of the 2.3L! This car is a blast to drive, (so far no speeding tickets, knock on wood.) Interior could have been a little more luxorious but its a perfect sleeper car!

You can't afford an M5.
You care about resale value.
Zoom-zoom To Tha Maxxx, But With A High-entry Fee, Up And Down Performance, And A Pricey Exit. — The Mazdaspeed6. Perhaps Mazda's last car for a while to put the zoom-zoom into a full size car. Reviewers gave it stellar reviews back in it's intro in 2005. All the specs were there: electronically- controlled AWD, Direct Injection 4-cylinder turbo, a close-ratio 6-spd manual, limited-slip differential, and plenty more. Enough to put it, at least on paper, into the top 'super-sedans' of the time. Some even likened it to a poor-man's M5. True, it was - but not without it's drawbacks. The inevitable Evo/STi comparisons were done, it was then realized that the Speed6 was considered more of 'grand-tourer', the speed was there - but not without compromise for comfort.

text: A veteran warrior who epitomises the Swedish spirit that was showcased at EuroBasket Women 2013, Barthold brings a bruising, feisty and no-nonsense style to the frontcourt. While not exactly without finesse completely, it is her abrasive approach, endless work ethic, hustle and off-the-ball exploits which added to her experience, make her more than a smart option for her country. While her numbers at the Final Round didn't reflect her influence, she showed a real nice shooting touch again during qualification and when you put all the components together, she offers unparallelled trust and should get another chance to set screens and rebound for fun.
