The Yankees said Sotomayor moved to better seats after Roll Call.

Picture: Ashton Kutcher, Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones Jon Cryer is honored with a Hollywood Star Los Angeles, California - 19.09.11
Amidst intense speculation concerning their reported marital problems Ashton Kutcher and wife Demi Moore spent some quality time together during a camping trip in Santa Barbara this weekend. The couple, who are yet to respond to rumours concerning Kutcher's alleged infidelity, made the trip with a couple of close friends, according to Tmz.com.
The Hollywood duo escaped to the Cachuma Lake on Sunday (9th October 2011) with their Kabbalah instructor Yehuda Berg and Ashton's close friend Eric Buterbaugh. The lake lies in the Santa Ynez Valley, adjoining the north side of California state's Route 154. A large campsite is administered by Santa Barbara County Parks department and offers fishing, boating and hiking excursions. Just two days before the trip, Ashton and Demi had been spotted together at the Yom Kippur Kabbalah service in Los Angeles. A report earlier this week by US Weekly Magazine claimed Kutcher partied with friends at the San Diego Hard Rock Hotel on his sixth wedding anniversary. A source says the raucous evening, "culminated in a sexual encounter in a hot tub with local blonde Sara Leal and her pal in his $2,500-a-night hotel suite".
Despite a wave of interest in the story, Kutcher and Demi are yet to comment via their active Twitter accounts. Several weeks ago, the actor linked followers to his Spotify profile, on which he was playing the Public Enemy track 'Don't Believe the Hype'.

Syria: Israel is spreading false reports in order to justify war
Syrian VP Al-Shara denies reports IAF targeted nuclear facility, says Syria does not want war.
Syria accused Israel on Saturday of making excuses for war by spreading false reports that an alleged Israel Air Force strike earlier this month targeted a nuclear facility.
Syrian Vice President Farouk al-Shara said his country did not want war "in the distant or near future."
"They (Israel) are making up things to justify an aggression in the future. They are playing on public opinion to mislead it," he said, describing the reports as fabrications.
"Everything reported about this raid is wrong and is part of a psychological warfare that will not fool Syria," Shara told reporters after meeting his Iraqi counterpart Adel Abdul-Mahdi.
Damascus says Israel launched the air raid on September 6, bombing an empty area after air defense systems confronted the aircraft. According to reports in the foreign press, however, the air strike apparently destroyed a nuclear reactor built under the auspices of North Korea.
Damascus and North Korea have denied any nuclear cooperation.
Shara said the raid was also aimed at boosting the morale of the Israel Defense Forces in the wake of the Second Lebanon War.
"They want to rehabilitate the Israeli army after the Lebanese resistance broke it," he said. "But what Israel needs is to rehabilitate the Israeli mind, only then will a real opportunity for genuine peace be created."
The United States, Israel's chief ally, has said it would invite Syria to an international conference in November to try to revive Israeli-Palestinian peacemaking.
Shara said the meeting would not succeed without pressure on Israel to withdraw from all the Arab land it occupied in 1967 in exchange for peace, including the Golan.
"Anything else and the meeting will be worthless," he said "We don't need more photo opportunities."

Dr. Ohhira's Probiotic 12 PLUS Original Formula

Reviewer1684721님께서 Mar 27, 2008 에 작성하셨습니다.
This product was recommended by my healthcare practitioner, over another probiotic I was using at the time. I was happy enough with the "pearls" I already used, but I do beleive that on the whole,this product is even more effective. I do not see the point of the Ohhira Professional Formula with this product, and the increased costs associated with it, when this product (12 Plus Original Formula) ingredient listing is essentially the same. A product is either truthful in its claims, and a quality product, or it's not. I hope this has been helpful.

I've taken Dr. Ohhira's probiotics for about 3-4 months now and I've noticed a difference in the way my stomach feels. I used to have a lot of issues with bloating, gas, and all around discomfort and since I've taken the probiotics as directed, I've noticed a considerable difference and I've become more regular as well.

This product is expensive, and it isn't some miracle life saver, but I do think it helps. I started taking it mainly because I've had chronic intermitent yeast infections / thrush for the past eighteen months, and wanted some support seriously getting rid of it in conjunction with diet and lifestyle changes. I haven't had another bought of candida since starting it, about 2.5 weeks ago. I've been taking less than the recommended dose - only 1 or 2 capsules a day, usually at night on an empty stomach. I don't like pounding 4 a day because I don't think it's necessary. I think it's a good product and would recommend it, although I really can't say definitively whether it's so much better than cheaper brands.

This is a pretty good dry shampoo. I prefer the powders over the spray dry shampoos because I find the sprays quite messy and I always spray way too much and my dark blond hair usually ends up with a grayish cast. With sprays, the powder never really disappears and my hair feels even dirtier and looks matted, which are not good results when using a product that is supposed to prolong the time between shampoos. When I've used sprays, I never end up wearing my hair down, putting it in an updo instead, hoping that no one can tell I've used a dry shampoo (but they probably can, lol!). Powders, on the other hand, do a much better job of absorbing the oil so that there's very little residue left over. I apply this Oscar Blandi powder ear to ear every 1/2 inch, avoiding my part. I then rub the powder in really well as if I was applying regular shampoo. I then apply my makeup, which takes about 15-20 minutes, during which time most of the oil is absorbed. I then brush whatever powder remains out with a 100% boar bristle brush (plastic bristles don't work for this maneuver). This gives me plenty of volume that lasts all day. I usually use this dry shampoo on the 2nd or 3rd day, when the oil appears at the roots. This powder never interferes with curling my hair but it does give me a matte finish, so I use a few spritzes of shine spray to compensate. OB does last a lot longer than you might think at first glance. Spray dry shampoos are loaded with propellant so there's probably very little actual powder in them, which is why they don't last very long at all. I also like Alterna Caviar dry shampoo powder, which comes in a 2.65 ounce size for less money than OB. I like the lemony fragrance of OB and it definitely makes my hair smell fresh and clean. As far as the sprays go, I've tried Fructis Volume Extend, Not Your Mother's Clean Freak, Batiste, Amika, R&Co and Beyond the Zone, and none of them give me the results that the powder products do (although the best of the sprays was Amika, which is $25, so uh NO!). At any rate, I definitely recommend this OB powder dry shampoo. It gives my hair a clean fragrance, it absorbs oil quickly and delivers some nice volume. If you're fed up with spray dry shampoos, give this one a try. Having said all this, I think OB dry shampoo is a great product and that it's definitely worth trying. I will never go back to spray dry shampoos. Now the only question is what to do with all the spray dry shampoos that are taking up space in my hall closet? I really hate to pawn them off on friends and family because they really suck. I supposed I'll have to relegate them to the recycle bin eventually. The only thing I can think of to use them for is an updo. But ever since my DH told me that I look older when I wear my hair up, I'm deathly afraid of french twists and chignons, lol!

It gets the job done but I hate the application tip. I would prefer if there was a cap with small holes. I don't think the powder is fine enough as when I run my hands in my scalp, you can still feel the powder. Since it is sitting on my head, I can feel that the powder has not fully been absorbed. I much prefer the batiste but that one does not last as long as this one.

Absolutely the best dry shampoo I've ever tried, and I'm an avid experimenter with dry shampoo since cutting down on washings over four years ago. It's safe to say I've tried them all, quickly realizing I prefer powders over sprays. A) this bottle lasts for freaking ever. B) the spell is perfect and actually refreshes hair along with soaking up oils. Perfect. Will repurchase until the day they stop making it!

I received this as a sample. I would not spend that much money on a dry shamp when batiste does that same thing as this. It smells lemony which is nice... But seriously. It's a dry shampoo. $22!?

Since purchasing this.. I have not and will not purchase dry shampoo in the form of a spray can EVER. AGAIN. This dry shampoo powder was sent from the hair gods up there. Let me just say, I had never purchased any Oscar Blandi products before, but I am so glad I found this while I was in Sephora's maze of products called the line to cash out. I purchased the travel size for $11 CAD. It is a tiny bottle however, dont be fooled. I purchased this a week before Christmas and its now March and I've only used HALF! ladies, please go and try this at the store. it is amazing. I've tried countless drugstore and high end dry shampoos and the only one that was remotely good was Alterna's bamboo scentless one. that stuff's good, but it only lasts about 3 weeks.
- the packaging. now when you first approach this in sephora, it is plain looking and very underwhelming at first glance. It is a white tube with a pointed tip. which is my fave part. it comes with a cover at the top of the tip, which is meant to be used in separating your hair while applying the powder
- the actual powder itself is very light weight and separates nicely, it doesnt clump up or anything. i sprinkle a good amount on my scalp, and shake it off. the oil disappears, and volume arises. *alleluia*
- the scent is amazing. it smells like lemon squares. which i love and adore.
-price: I know that when you go instore and see this next time your in sephora, you'll probably think that $11 is a little steep for this dinky little bottle..... because its a powder, you need very little.. mine is half way done and will last me about 2-3 more months.
- if it were needed, i have gone 4-5 days without washing my hair, all thanks to this dry shampoo. and by the 4th day, my hair still looks fresh. No exaggeration there. its that good.
no cons whatsoever.

This dry shampoo is seriously heaven sent. Sure it's pricey at $22 but the powder is so fine that a little goes a long way making this last a long time. The nozzle on the bottle is very handy as you can apply very directly. It smells of lemons which is great for greasy hair that tends to be a little smelly. I apply this very liberally to my dark hair, wait a few minutes so it can soak up all of my oils and I tossle my head upside down hair and work my fingers through my scalp; I'm left with clean hair that has volume and no white cast.

This is a staple in my bag, always! If I don't wash my hair daily, I get a case of greasies on my scalp. A little bit of this powder in my hands (rubbed together with the product), and rub into my scalp. The small bottle lasts for months. Its worth the price you pay ($11). It also adds lift to my roots and gives more volume for that va-va-voom look ;)

I've been wanting to try a dry shampoo for awhile, but the idea of a spray container was a big turnoff for me (seemed like a lot of unnecessary ingredients, waste of packaging, less product, etc). I saw this and bought it on a whim.
Dry shampoo doesn't clean your hair, it just absorbs oil. This smells like lemons, which is okay, and it fades within 2 hours. It's made a big difference in how long I can wear my hair down. I used to wear it down one day and then tie it up the next day before washing it. Now I can wear it down three or four days. It gives my roots that clean, fluffy, just-washed look. Although I do need to start applying it one day after washing and then re-apply once or twice a day after that. The only con is that if I scratch my head, I notice that the powder + absorbed oil junk gets under my nails. It's all still there on your head. But overall this is a good product and saves me a lot of time.

I have been using the little 1 ounce bottle for months now and I'm about to run out. I absolutely love this dry shampoo. It works incredibly well on my 2nd/3rd day blonde hair by ridding it of any greasiness and adding life and volume back in to my hair. The tapered nozzle makes it very easy to section the hair and apply close to the scalp. The lemony smell is not offensive to me. The only con I can think of is it leaves your hands very powdery and if you don't wash them immediately it can easily transfer onto your clothes. I love this so much that I just re-purchased the small size for travel (great for carry-ons) and the larger size to keep at home.

Two words can be used to summarize what I thought of this product: "dashed dreams".
I initially wanted to buy a dry shampoo because I have hair that gets real oily, real quick, and wanted to go two days between showers instead of showering everyday. I did my due diligence - I looked at reviews online, on MUA, and on YouTube, and A LOT of people seemed to love this dry shampoo. They said that it had a nice, small tip through which the product was dispensed so that it wouldn't leave gobs of dry shampoo in your hair, it had a nice, lemony scent to it, and that it would be invisible even on dark hair (I have black hair). Most important of all, they said that it WORKED.
I have to say that it does not work. I used some in my hair BEFORE it was really what I would even consider oily as a preventative action. During my first application, I could already see that something was wrong. Even though I would wait a while (maybe a half minute or a minute) before I started rubbing in/combing out the powder to make sure that it was absorbed, my hair still looked limp and didn't have the volume that freshly washed hair does. In addition, I found that this product smells STRONGLY of lemon-scented kitchen cleaner. Don't get me wrong, I love the scent of natural lemons, but this smells incredibly artificial and strong, and the smell lingers around you for at least an hour after application. Blergh. You may offend someone if you apply this in your hair and then decide to sit on the subway on the way to work.
I thought that perhaps the powder just did not have enough time to work its magic, so I went to sleep, forgot about it, and tried using it again (to freshen up my hair after sleeping) the next morning. Nope. There was no change in the way that my hair looked greasy and I was still irritated by the strong, chemical fragrance. At this point, I decided to cut my losses and just wash my hair the old fashioned way. One thing I do like is that when I finish using the powder, I can re-use the packaging when I try to DIY my own dry shampoo later.
Overall, this product was very disappointing. I would not repurchase it and I would not recommend you to purchase it either if you have oily hair like I do.
I purchased my small, travel-sized bottle (28g or 1 oz) at Sephora for $13.50 before tax, which makes it over-priced in my opinion for how much product you get.
EDIT: While this product is disappointing, it is not AS horrible as another option I just tried. Bumping this product up by one lipstick tube.

Porous member or crock
Subclass of:
047 - Plant husbandry
047079000 - Irrigator
Patent class list (only not empty are listed)
Deeper subclasses:
|Class / Patent application number
|Number of patent applications / Date published
|Porous member or crock
|Aerial plant planter - An aerial plant planter comprising a wall and a flat bottom surface that formed the cavity for holding root structure of a plant and its growing medium with attached individual porous water chambers on the wall of the planter for storing quantity of water. Open spaces are created around the wall and bottom of the planter to provide sufficient airflow. Tops of the water chambers are open to supply humidity to the plants and for easy refilling. The flat bottom defines a plurality of risers for maximum air circulation and to prevent the plant from sitting on any excess water that may be present underneath the planter.
|PLANT CULTIVATION CONTAINER - A plant cultivation container is provided which does not need a feed-water tube made of a porous material or the like but the plant cultivation bed material can be made permeated in a relatively short time period. For this purpose, a water reservoir portion for pooling plant cultivation water is provided, the water reservoir portion having a bed material accommodation part for placing a water-absorbing plant cultivation bed material. In the plant cultivation container, the water reservoir portion is provided with a surrounding feed-water channel that surrounds an entire circumference of the bed material accommodation part, and a feed-discharge channel for supplying the plant cultivation water from outside to the water reservoir portion and for discharging the plant cultivation water in the water reservoir portion to outside is provided in communication with the surrounding feed-water channel.
|PLANT POT AND SOIL WATERING SYSTEM - An irrigation system for watering a substrate, comprising a pipe having a longitudinal dimension. A hermetically closeable inlet portion is connected to a water supply. A passageway extends generally throughout the longitudinal dimension and is in fluid communication with the inlet portion such that water can fill the passageway. Openings are in fluid communication with the passageway such that water in the passageway can exit the pipe through the openings. The openings are distributed along the longitudinal dimension of the pipe, the pipe being adapted to be at least partially buried in the substrate with said longitudinal dimension being generally horizontal. Porous members are secured to an outer periphery of the pipe so as to each cover one of the openings and so as to be in contact with the substrate such that water flows out of the passageway through the openings and the porous member and into the substrate as a result of a capillary action of the substrate.
|PLANT CULTIVATION CONTAINER - A plant cultivation container includes a container body having: a plant cultivation space with an opening for planting a plant formed in a front face thereof; and a water reservoir portion for pooling plant cultivation water formed in a lower portion of the plant cultivation space, in which container a water-absorbing plant cultivation flooring material is mounted in the plant cultivation space so that a part of the plant cultivation flooring material is positioned inside the water reservoir portion. One of right and left walls of the container body disposed at right and left ends, respectively, of a front face of the container body is provided with an engaging portion, and the other of the right and left walls is provided with an engaged portion engageable with the engaging portion of another container body, such that a relative angle between two adjacent container
|Water Supply Device for Planting Container - A water supply device for a planting container comprises a main body having a water storage space and a water supply space. A water supply hole is disposed between the water storage space and the water supply space. Water in the water storage space is transported to the water supply space through the water supply hole. A water absorbing material is disposed in the water supply space and utilizes siphon principle to pump the water in the water supply space. When the water level of the water supply space is higher than the water supply hole, a vacuum effect is generated. When the water level of the water supply space is lower than the water supply hole, the vacuum effect is released so that water in the water storage space is transported to the water supply space through the water supply hole.
|INSERT CONTAINER - The invention relates to an insert container for plant pots with a base, at least one side wall, which adjoins the base with a lower edge, is formed with an upper edge open at the top and surrounds an interior, a longitudinal axis extending perpendicular to the base, supports arranged on the base and extending in the direction of the longitudinal axis, at least one water-permeable watering device arranged on the base and at least one indentation which extends in the direction of the longitudinal axis, in the at least one side wall.
|GREENING SYSTEM - A greening system is disclosed for enabling plants/vegetation to grow only with natural rainfall, enabling a garden to be constructed on building rooftops, minimizing the applicable loads on the building and risk of leakage. Planting container
|SELF-WATERING PLANT CONTAINER WITH ROOT PRUNING AERATIONS APERTURES AND EXTERIOR WATER LEVEL INDICATOR - Self-watering plant container includes a container used to hold a living plant and soil and a container to hold a pool of water or nutrient solution underneath the plant/soil container where the water may be absorbed by the living plant through a permeable bottom in the plant/soil container. Self-watering plant container includes an airspace layer located between the bottom of the plant/soil container and the top of the water or nutrient solution pool in order to prevent excessive moisture or water from being absorbed into the plant/soil container, thereby preventing root rot. Self-watering plant container achieves this partly by special funnel shaped root-pruning aeration apertures in the bottom of its plant/soil container that allow very small roots and root hairs to grow through the bottom of plant/soil container and into the water reservoir below, while forcing larger roots back into the plant/soil container, and also allowing for aeration of the plant/soil container.
|Plant Container - A plant container includes a container body and an automate watering arrangement, wherein the automate watering arrangement includes a reserve unit and a plurality of watering units. Each of the watering units includes a guiding element and a watering element, wherein one end of the guiding element is communicated with the reserve unit, and another end of the guiding element is coupled with the watering element end-to-end. The watering element is downwardly extended from the guiding element and submerged into the soil of the planting cavity such that the water of the reserve unit is guided to flow to the soil of the planting cavity via the watering element so as to maintain a moisture level of the soil for the plant.
|SELF-WATERING FRUIT TREE CONTAINER WITH ROOT PRUNING AERATIONS APERTURES AND EXTERIOR WATER LEVEL INDICATOR - Self-watering fruit tree container comprises a container holding a living plant that is positioned above a container holding a pool of water or nutrient solution where the water may be absorbed by the living plant through a permeable bottom and/or side of the plant container. Self-watering fruit tree container allows for an airspace layer between the plant container and the water container which prevents excessive absorption of water into the plant container, thereby preventing root rot. Self-watering fruit tree container achieves this partially by special funnel shaped root-pruning aeration apertures in the bottom of the plant container that allow very small roots and root hairs to pass and grow through the bottom of the plant container and into the water reservoir below, while pruning and stopping larger roots, and also allowing for aeration of soil in the plant container.
|Liquid Storage Means For Supplying Plants - A liquid storage means for the supply of plants, whose porous storage material is a hydrophilic foam, in particular formed from urea resin and a tenside, and having open pores.

Paper Again
Scholarship Entrant: Marilynn from HInesville, GA
Essay Question: If you could earn a living doing what you love most, what would it be, and how would it change the world? Describe the specific goals you would set to make that dream a reality.
Vote for Marilynn: 6
I would like to own a company that recycles paper in such a way that it will be placed back in the ground as fertilizer for gardens. This would change the world by decreasing the amount of paper that goes into a landfill. Some landfills are almost at capacity. Businesses that eliminate certain types of trash will decrease the amount of space needed for future disposal.
I am presently developing a business plan for a recycling company. My company would employ a minimum of ten employees, with the potential growth of maximizing manpower to the amount of twenty employees. This would give a small boost to the economy, but a big boost to the environment.

The Maccabees @ Knitting Factory in 2007 (more)
No prizes for guessing which band have been hogging the Maccabees' stereo. Wall of Arms makes use of epic production, eerie chants and the general feeling that Orlando Weeks is singing like the world's about to end tomorrow (which, of course, it may well be). If this all sounds a bit Arcade Fire, note that production credits go to Markus Dravs, who worked on Neon Bible. [Guardian UK]That's a review of the latest record from UK band the Maccabees, out now on Fiction Records. The band has extensive tour dates scheduled for Europe, in both May/June and again in the fall.
The band comes stateside in June. So far the only public date is a Brooklyn show at the Music Hall of Williamsburg on Saturday, June 20th. Tickets go on sale Wednesday, May 6th at noon. Stay tuned for more announcements.

They are currently touring the UK, saw them last week, pretty good.
Unfortunately for them, they have Mumford and Sons opening for them who are pretty much the best thing ever. Ever.
Posted by Anonymous | May 6, 2009 12:32 PM
mumford sons are so ehhhh, like cliche and cheesy. especially when you compare them to their british folk brethren.
Maccabees are so qt! their debut was really great, but took a little while to get into. i suspect this record is the same. i'm so there for the MHOW show.
paris, brooklyn, hamburg? they must be vacationing to the US or something.

Thank you, it's very wonderfull information it might be very kind for students. For example last year when I had a difficult of time at the end of semester with a continuous flow of academic assignments and drill, I had a brilliant idea to buy it somewhere and than use plagiarism checker. I was so exhausted that I did not care for what can appear when my academic work was written by flipside person. To my awesome surprise, research paper was estimable the price I paid for it. I was so contented with the quality and now everytime i use this service.

Star Wars 7 by Zenith-strifeWatch
©2005-2016 Zenith-strife
I done this quite a while ago . I thought the prince of persia character looked very "sith" like . so i gave him a lightsaber and darkened his features. and made it look like a promo poster for star wars 7 , this is just something i done in my spare time.
I love it!
haha awesome!!
Oh helll yes! This would be just plain awesome if it actually happened....alas that won't be the case....
I propose that we send this to Disney.
Cool pic man.
love it
If only... the sith should have won!
If Mark Hamill were to be Luke Skywalker again, I suggest he lose a few (fifty) pounds…
Wow, so many returns and revenges! It makes a guy wonder if the Jedi and Sith could just give a stalemate! They should just make a truce, where the Jedi can protect one side of the galaxy, and the Sith could dominate the other!
Sorry for the rant, nice picture, dude! Definitely going on me faves!
Sorry for the rant, nice picture, dude! Definitely going on me faves!
WOW dat is soooooooooo cool
WHAT star wars was meant to be...?
should have given him 2 sabers or.. better one saber and one short one witch is faster in attacking. and more effective..
Yeah... good ol' Prince of Persia 2... still listening to the soundtrack every day. And combined with Star Wars? Sure like it!
This is pretty amazing, I love it... And I'm picky when it comes to Sith. Shoot... this is very well done. The barkground fits very well, the person looks... amazing!
lol, he rly looks like a Sith ^^
lol. this is cool.
Looks like Exar Kun. Ancient Sith dude. Yeah...I'm a nerd.
Really nice pic, and yeah, the prince does kinda look like a sith
Though they aren't making a star wars movie exceeding episode 6(so far) I actually read the 'basic' story outline for episodes 7,8 and 9. They seemed pretty good to me though I was one huindred percetn reading them. Anyway I agree picture looks really good with what you did.
star wars seven is heir to the empire though right?
I wish, there will be know Episode 7. At this point since Lucas has been directing them, that's a good thing.

Hey! I'm going away to college this Fall and am looking to take my horse with me. We do jumpers, play with hunters, and are looking to event. However, I'm having trouble finding some places to keep him. I currently live in Maryland, but applied to three schools. They are in Orlando, FL, Conway, SC, and Aiken, SC.
I obviously don't live around any of these places, so I was wondering if any of you know of any good boarding facilities around any of them. I'm not settled on any one school just yet, so I'm looking for some barns in all three areas. I have been googling barns on my computer, but if anyone has any personal experience or knowledge, that'd be heaps better.
If any of the barns you know have websites, I'd love to see them. (:
Here's what I'm looking for in a barn.
-Decent ring w/ jump course (preferably lighted)
-Nice turnout
-Friendly staff and boarders
-Not overly priced
I'm really just looking for somewhere that I know my horse will be well taken care of. I compete relatively regularly, so I'm looking for somewhere that will fit in with me.

Hello dear deviants! Its about time to submit something i think! My last upload was in May Hopefully I will have more time during the winter to make more art, but I dont know...Battlefield 4 is coming soon
Anyways, I wanted to create something swampy since I never did something like this before. So here it is, I hope you like it! I had lots of fun making it.
Done in Vue, Postwork in PS
I love this!!!
Nice picture!
You are vey good at setting moods : ) You can practically feel the moisture through this piece... Does that sound strange? I liked the color scheme you used.
very nice man!
Wow! You really know how to set a mood! Great Lighting and very good choose of colors!
Great work!
Great work!
Really great image!
Mysterious lighting. Very good.
I would like to have a look deeper and further away into the forest or something in the foreground to focus on. Just my subjective point of view.
Yea, I got your point. I wanted to throw something in the foreground, but whatever I tried seemed to be out of place so I left it as it is
Superb render!! Love the color scheme, lighting and the eco system.
It's very impressive in terms of crafting a 3d scene, but it needs a focal point and action to give it drama and meaning.
I was thinking that too, I just could find anything for the foreground without breaking the atmosphere so I left it a "clean" scene.
Thank you very much!
Yeah, I need to buy VUE.
wow amazing

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company's significant accounting policies are more fully described in its Summary of Accounting Policies, Note 2, in the Company's 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted within the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. The Company does not believe there is a great likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported related to the accounting policies described below; however, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgments and the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Astea International Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant assets and liabilities that are subject to estimates include allowances for doubtful accounts, goodwill and other acquired intangible assets, deferred tax assets and certain accrued and contingent liabilities.
Revenue Recognition
Astea's revenue is principally recognized from two sources: (i) licensing arrangements and (ii) services and maintenance.
The Company markets its products primarily through its direct sales force and resellers. License agreements do not provide for a right of return, and historically, product returns have not been significant.
The Company recognizes revenue from license sales when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the license fee is fixed and determinable and the collection of the fee is probable. We utilize written contracts as a means to establish the terms and conditions by which our products support and services are sold to our customers. Delivery is considered to have occurred when title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer, which generally occurs after a license key has been delivered electronically to the customer. Revenue for arrangements with extended payment terms in excess of one year is recognized when the payments become due, provided all other recognition criteria are satisfied. If collectability is not considered probable, revenue is recognized when the fee is collected. Our typical end user license agreements do not contain acceptance clauses. However, if acceptance criteria are required, revenues are deferred until customer acceptance has occurred.
If these criteria are not met, then revenue is deferred until such criteria are met or until the period(s) over which the last undelivered element is delivered. If there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value for all units of accounting in an arrangement, the arrangement consideration is allocated to the separate units of accounting based on each unit's relative fair value. There may be cases, however, in which there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the undelivered item(s) but no such evidence for the delivered item(s). In those cases, the residual method is used to allocate the arrangement consideration. Under the residual method, the amount of consideration allocated to the delivered item(s) equals the total arrangement consideration less the aggregate fair value of the undelivered item(s). We apply the revenue recognition policies discussed below to each separate unit of accounting.
Astea allocates revenue to each element in a multiple-element arrangement based on the elements' respective fair value, determined by the price charged when the element is sold separately. Specifically, Astea determines the fair value of the maintenance portion of the arrangement based on the price, at the date of sale, if sold separately, which is generally a fixed percentage of the software license selling price. The professional services portion of the arrangement is based on hourly rates which the Company charges for those services when sold separately from software. If evidence of fair value of all undelivered elements exists, but evidence does not exist for one or more delivered elements, then revenue is recognized using the residual method. If an undelivered element for which evidence of fair value does not exist, all revenue in an arrangement is deferred until the undelivered element is delivered or fair value can be determined. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue. The proportion of the revenue recognized upon delivery can vary from quarter-to-quarter depending upon the determination of vendor-specific objective evidence ("VSOE") of fair value of undelivered elements. The residual value, after allocation of the fee to the undelivered elements based on VSOE of fair value, is then allocated to the perpetual software license for the software products being sold.
When appropriate, the Company may allocate a portion of its software revenue to post-contract support activities or to other services or products provided to the customer free of charge or at non-standard rates when provided in conjunction with the licensing arrangement. Amounts allocated are based upon standard prices charged for those services or products which, in the Company's opinion, approximate fair value. Software license fees for resellers or other members of the indirect sales channel are based on a fixed percentage of the Company's standard prices. The Company recognizes software license revenue for such contracts based upon the terms and conditions provided by the reseller to its customer. The Company regularly communicates with its resellers and recognizes revenue based on information from its resellers regarding possible returns and collectability. However, the Company does not have a history of returns from the resellers.
Revenue from post-contract support is recognized ratably over the term of the contract, which is generally twelve months on a straight-line basis. Consulting and training service revenue is generally unbundled and recognized at the time the service is performed. If the Company does have any fixed-price arrangements for services the revenue is recognized using the proportional performance method based on direct labor hours incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated direct labor hours required to complete the project. Fees from licenses sold together with consulting services are generally recognized upon shipment, provided that the contract has been executed, delivery of the software has occurred, fees are fixed and determinable and collection is probable.
We believe that our accounting estimates used in applying our revenue recognition are critical because:
· the determination that it is probable that the customer will pay for the products and services purchased is inherently judgmental;
· the allocation of proceeds to certain elements in multiple-element arrangements is complex;
· the determination of whether a service is essential to the functionality of the software is complex;
· establishing company-specific fair values of elements in multiple-element arrangements requires adjustments from time-to-time to reflect recent prices charged when each element is sold separately; and
· the determination of the stage of completion for certain consulting arrangements is complex.
Changes in the aforementioned items could have a material effect on the type and timing of revenue recognized.
If we were to change our pricing approach in the future, this could affect our revenue recognition estimates, in particular, if bundled pricing precludes establishment of VSOE.
For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized $5,278,000 and $6,594,000, respectively, of revenue related to software license fees and services and maintenance. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized $19,843,000 and $19,649,000, respectively, of revenue related to software license fees and services and maintenance.
We present taxes assessed by a governmental authority including sales, use, value added and excise taxes on a net basis and therefore the presentation of these taxes is excluded from our revenues and is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets until such amounts are remitted to the taxing authority.
Reimbursable Expenses
The Company charges customers for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by its employees during the performance of professional services in the normal course of business. Billings for out-of-pocket expenses that are reimbursed by the customer are to be included in revenues with the corresponding expense included in cost of services and maintenance.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specifically identified amounts that management believes to be uncollectible. The Company also records an additional allowance based on certain percentages of aged receivables, which are determined based on historical experience and management's assessment of the general financial conditions affecting the Company's customer base. Once management determines that an account will not be collected, the account is written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. If actual collections experience changes, revisions to the allowances may be required.
We believe that our estimate of our allowance for doubtful accounts is critical because of the significance of our accounts receivable relative to total assets. If the general economy deteriorates, or factors affecting the profitability or liquidity of the industry changed significantly, then this could affect the accuracy of our allowance for doubtful accounts.
Capitalized Software Research and Development Costs
The Company capitalizes software development costs incurred during the period from the establishment of technological feasibility through the product's availability for general release. Costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are charged to product development expense. Product development expense includes payroll, employee benefits, other headcount-related costs associated with product development and any related costs to third parties under sub-contracting or net of any collaborative arrangements.
Software development costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis over the greater of the ratio of current revenues to total anticipated revenues (current and future revenues) or on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the products beginning with the initial release to customers. The Company's estimated life for its capitalized software products is two years based on current sales trends and the rate of product release. The Company continually evaluates whether events or circumstances had occurred that indicate that the remaining useful life of the capitalized software development costs should be revised or that the remaining balance of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates the recoverability of capitalized software based on the estimated future revenues of each product. As of September 30, 2012, management believes that no revisions to the remaining useful lives or write-downs of capitalized software development costs are required.
We believe that our estimate of our capitalized software costs and the period for their amortization is critical because of the significance of our balance of capitalized software costs relative to our total assets. Potential impairment is determined by comparing the balance of unamortized capitalized software costs to the sales revenue projected for a capitalized software product. If efforts to sell that software product are terminated, or if the projected sales revenue from that software product drops below a level that is less than the unamortized balance, then an impairment would be recognized.
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of businesses acquired over the fair value of the net assets acquired at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized but rather tested for impairment at least annually. The Company performs its annual impairment test as of the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter. The impairment test must be performed more frequently if there are triggering events, as for example when our market capitalization significantly declines for a sustained period, which could cause us to do interim impairment testing that might result in impairment to goodwill.
In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance on testing goodwill for impairment. The new guidance provides an entity the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The Company elected to early adopt this accounting guidance at the beginning of its fourth quarter of 2011 on a prospective basis for goodwill impairment tests.
In accordance with the new guidance, the Company first performed a qualitative assessment to determine whether it was necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. If the Company believed, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the first and second steps of the goodwill impairment test were unnecessary.
If necessary, the goodwill impairment test is applied using a two-step approach. In the first step, the Company determines the fair value of the reporting unit and compares that fair value to the carrying value of the reporting unit including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined using various valuation techniques, including a comparable companies market multiple approach and a discounted cash flow analysis (an income approach). If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company performs the second step of the goodwill impairment test to measure the impairment loss, if any.
The Company compares the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of goodwill. The Company determined the implied fair value of goodwill in the same manner as if the Company had acquired those business units. Specifically, the Company must allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets of that unit, including any unrecognized intangible assets, in a hypothetical calculation that would yield the implied fair value of goodwill.
The determination of the fair value of the reporting units and the allocation of that value to individual assets and liabilities within those reporting units requires the Company to make significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions primarily include, but are not limited to: the selection of appropriate peer group companies; control premiums appropriate for acquisitions in the industries in which the Company competes; the discount rate; terminal growth rates; and forecasts of revenue, operating income, depreciation and amortization, and capital expenditures.
Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making these estimates, actual financial results could differ from those estimates. Changes in assumptions concerning future financial results or other underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value of the reporting unit or the amount of the goodwill impairment charge.
The Company performed a qualitative assessment during the fourth quarter of 2011 and determined that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The Company determined there was no triggering event at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 which could require an interim impairment analysis.
Major Customers
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, no customers accounted for 10% or more of total revenues and for the three months ended September 30, 2011 there were two customers that accounted for 15% and 12% of total revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, no customers accounted for 10% or more of total revenues and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 there was one customer that accounted for 12% of total revenues. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there was one customer that accounted for 10% of total accounts receivable.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to credit risk, consist of cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company's policy is to limit the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. The Company places investments with financial institutions evaluated as being creditworthy, or investing in short-term money market which are exposed to minimal interest rate and credit risk. Cash balances are maintained with several banks. Certain operating accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limits.
The Company sells its products to customers involved in a variety of industries including information technology, medical devices and diagnostic systems, industrial controls and instrumentation and retail systems. While the Company does not require collateral from its customers, it does perform continuing credit evaluations of its customer's financial condition.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company defines the fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs in measuring fair value are observable in the market. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:
1. Level 1 - Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access.
2. Level 2 - Valuations based on inputs on other than quoted prices included within Level 1, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
3. Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The inputs reflect the Company's assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, other assets, trade accounts payable, and accrued expenses at face value approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
Investments classified as available for sale are measured using quoted market prices multiplied by the quantity held where quoted market prices were available.
Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary. Fair value is calculated based on publicly available market information or other estimates determined by management. We employ a systematic methodology on a quarterly basis that considers available quantitative and qualitative evidence in evaluating potential impairment of our investments. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, we evaluate, among other factors, general market conditions, credit quality, the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than cost, and for equity securities, our intent and ability to hold, or plans to sell, the investment. For fixed income securities, we also evaluate whether we have plans to sell the security or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery. We also consider specific adverse conditions related to the financial health of and business outlook for the investee, including industry and sector performance, changes in technology, and operational and financing cash flow factors. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded to other income (expense) and a new cost basis in the investment is established.
The fair value of goodwill is determined by estimating the expected present value of future cash flows without reference to observable market transactions.
Accounting for Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the difference and carryforwards are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is provided when we estimate that it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets may not be realized through future operations. This assessment is based upon consideration of available positive and negative evidence which included, among other things, our most recent results of operations and expected future profitability. We consider our actual historical results to have a stronger weight than other more subjective indicators when considering whether to establish or reduce a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
The Company prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Estimated interest is recorded as a component of interest expense and penalties are recorded as a component of general and administrative expenses. Such amounts were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and did not have a material impact on our financial position.
Currency Translation
The accounts of the international subsidiaries and branch operations translate the assets and liabilities of international operations by using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. The results of operations are translated at average exchange rates during the period. The effects of exchange rate fluctuations in translating assets and liabilities of international operations into U.S. dollars are accumulated and reflected as a currency translation adjustment as other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. Transaction gains and losses are included in net income (loss). General and administrative expenses include transaction losses of ($16,000) and ($10,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and ($41,000) and ($33,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
(Loss) Earnings Per Share
(Loss) earnings per share are computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. In the calculation of diluted earnings per share, shares outstanding are adjusted to assume conversion of the Company's non-interest bearing convertible stock and exercise of options as if they were dilutive. In the calculation of basic (loss) earnings per share, weighted average numbers of shares outstanding are used as the denominator.
The Company had net income allocable to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and net (loss) allocable to common stockholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011. (Loss) earnings per share are computed as follows:
Three Nine Months Ended Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2012 2011 2012 2011 Numerator: Net (loss)income available to common shareholders $ (1,297,000 ) $ 174,000 $ (1,121,000 ) $ (107,000 ) Denominator: Weighted average shares used to compute net (loss) earnings available to common shareholders per common share-basic 3,575,000 3,567,000 3,570,000 3,561,000 Preferred shares assumed to be converted . . .
