The comparatively lower cost of cosmetic surgery in India makes it popular among medical tourists from the USA, Canada, Nigeria, Kenya, and other parts of Africa, West Asia, Australia, the UK, and other countries of Europe. With the on-going economic turmoil in the United States that is affecting economies all over the world, resulting in price increases and job losses, it truly feels like a gift from the heavens to find affordable facelift in New Delhi, India.
Plastic surgery is viewed as a reasonable option and paying attention to physical appearance is increasingly important to everyone. This is backed by findings from the 2010 The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) Cosmetic Surgery Statistics as per which almost 9.5 million patients had cosmetic surgical and non-surgical procedures in the US within that year.
Facelift to Look and Feel Younger
Those who are planning to get a facelift surgery in New Delhi, India should be armed with a bit of facts about this cosmetic procedure:
- Also called a rhytidectomy, this procedure involves the removal of excess fat from the face and tightening of the facial skin, resulting in a fresher and firmer appearance. Normally, an incision is hidden in the contour of the ear, extending around the earlobe and back into the hairline.
- For a less-invasive procedure, patients can go for a mini facelift in New Delhi, India. You can achieve similar results with a MACS lift (mini facelift) in New Delhi minus the high price tag. MACS facelift in India is a worthwhile option since the recuperation time involved would be less (given it being relatively less-invasive than a full-blown traditional rhytidectomy) and the costs involved further lower.
- Patients can also undergo a quick facelift in New Delhi, India, in which the skin in the lower area of the face and neck is tightened in a minimally invasive manner.
Benefits of a Rhytidectomy in New Delhi, India
- Facelift prices in New Delhi, India are just a fraction of the costs in developed countries like the US, the UK, and Australia. Despite the low cost of facelift in New Delhi, India, you'll get high quality treatment comparable to that found in the developed countries of the West.
- Given the affordability of cosmetic procedures in India, patients can also get a neck lift surgery in New Delhi to achieve better results by getting rid of turkey neck or double chins. Neck lift cost in India is equally alluring. For mothers out there with all the money that they save on their facelifts, they can get an adjunct overall mommy makeover surgery in India to help restore pre-pregnancy vital stats. They may even opt for a stand-alone low cost liposuction in New Delhi, if getting the whole shebang sounds a tad daunting.
- Be it a facelift or a more complex pectus excavatum surgery in New Delhi, there are minimal to no waiting times for medical treatments.
- You can elect to get your facelift in India at one of the several JCI, ISO, and NABH accredited hospitals which are equipped with state-of-the-art technology and facilities that can compete with the medical facilities of the US.
- Medical tourists can look forward to getting treated at the hands of renowned doctors and plastic surgeons in New Delhi, India who received comprehensive training and certifications from reputable institutions abroad.
- India is known for a sizeable English-speaking population. Hence, communicating with Indian doctors, nurses, and medical staff won't be a problem for foreign patients.
Vacationing Combined with Facelift in New Delhi, India
Getting a facelift surgery in India can also be a relaxing experience for medical tourists. Why not plan a leisure trip to the national capital? Here are some of the key tourist spots in New Delhi that patients can visit:
- India Gate – a memorial where the names of the gallant Indian soldiers in World I are inscribed
- Raj Ghat –the last resting place of India's Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi
- Humayun's Tomb – was built under the orders of Humayun's wife Haji Begum
- Bahai Temple – also known as the Lotus Temple because of its lotus shape
Hindi is the national language of India. Here are some useful Hindi phrases for tourists:
- Hello/goodbye – namaskar
- Please – kripaya
- Thank you – dhanyavad/shukhriya
- How much is this? – ye kitne ka hai?
- Help – bachao
- How are you? – aap kaise hain?
Medical tourists should also keep in mind some travel considerations:
- Avoid eating street foods and always go for bottled water.
- Tourists are advised against giving donations to beggars.
- Women should avoid wearing revealing clothes when roaming the streets of India. When visiting a temple, follow the dress code and bring a scarf with you.
There are many benefits of getting a facelift in New Delhi. People should not feel guilty if they long to look younger and more attractive. With quality and affordable cosmetic procedures in India, you can stop dreaming and start looking more beautiful.

» Realty Income Corp Q1 2010 Earnings Call Transcript
I would now like to turn the conference over to Mr. Tom Lewis, CEO of Realty Income. Go ahead sir.
Tom Lewis
Thank you, Joe. Good afternoon everyone and welcome to the call. And obviously our purpose is to review our operations during the first quarter of 2011. And as always, I'm obligated to say that during this conference call, we will make certain statements that may be considered to be forward-looking statements under Federal Securities Law and the company's actual future results may differ significantly from the matters discussed in the forward-looking statements and we'll disclose in greater detail on the company's Form 10-Q, the factors that may cause such differences.
And as we normally do, Paul Meurer, our CFO will start this off and walk through our numbers.
Paul Meurer
Thanks, Tom. As usual, I'll provide some comments and brief highlights of our financial results for the quarter starting with the income statement. And our total revenue increased 18.4% to $97.8 million this quarter versus $82.6 million during the first quarter of 2010. Obviously, this reflected the significant amount of new acquisitions over the past year, as well as some positive same-store rent increases for the quarterly period of 1.1%.
On the expense side, depreciation and amortization expense increased by almost $3.8 million in a comparative quarterly period, as depreciation expense obviously has increased as our property portfolio continues to grow. Interest expense increased by just over $3.7 million, and this increase was due to the $250 million of senior notes due 2021, which we've issued in June of last year. On a related note, our coverage ratios both improved since last quarter with interest coverage now at 3.5 times and fixed charge coverage now at 2.8 times.
General and administrative or G&A expenses in the first quarter was $7,870,000, as we've mentioned over the past couple of quarters the increase in G&A recently is due largely to recent hiring in our acquisitions and research department. Our G&A expense has increased as our acquisition activity has increased, and as we have invested in new personnel for future growth.
Furthermore though, this quarters G&A was also impacted by the expensing of $371,000 of acquisitions due diligence cost mostly related to the large portfolio acquisition that we announced last month. Our current projection for G&A for 2011 is approximately $29 million, which will represent less than 7% of our total revenue. Property expenses were $1,983,000 for the quarter. And of course these expenses are primarily associated with the taxes, maintenance and insurance expenses, which we are responsible for on properties available for lease. Our current estimate for 2011 is approximately $7 million for property expenses.
Income taxes consist of income taxes paid to various states by the company. They were $350,000 during the quarter. Income from discontinued operations for the quarter totaled $396,000. Real estate acquired for resale refers to the operations of Crest Net Lease, our subsidiary that acquires and resells properties. Crest did not acquire or sell any properties in the quarter and overall contributed income from discontinued operations of $222,000.
Real estate held-for-investment refers to property sales by realty income from our existing core portfolio. We sold three properties during the first quarter resulting overall in income of approximately $174,000. These property sales gains are not included in our FFO or in the calculation of our AFFO.
Preferred stock cash dividends remained at $6.1 million for the quarter and net income available to common stock holders increased to approximately $29.9 million for the quarter. Net income or funds from operations or FFO increased 21.2% to $56.6 million for the quarter. On a per share basis, FFO increased 6.7% to $0.48 for the quarter.
Adjusted funds from operation or AFFO or the actual cash we have available for distribution as dividend was a penny higher at $0.49 per share for the quarter. Our AFFO is usually higher than our FFO because our capital expenditures are fairly low and we have minimal straight line rent in our portfolio.
We increased our cash monthly dividend again this quarter. We have increased the dividend 54 consecutive quarters and 61 times overall since we went public 15.5 years ago. And our dividend payout ratio has now continued to decrease, for the quarter was 90% of our FFO and about 88% of our AFFO.
Turning to the balance sheet, we have continued to maintain a very conservative and safe capital structure. Our current debt to total market capitalization is only 25% and our prepared stock outstanding represents just 5% of our capital structure. In March we successfully raised $300 million of new common equity in order to finance new property acquisitions. Since many of these acquisition did not close in the first quarter. We had $130 million of cash on hand at March 31st.
We also have zero borrowings on a $425 million credit facility and we had no debt maturities until 2013. So, in summary, we currently have excellent liquidity, and our overall balance sheet remains very healthy and safe.

Bayou Cane Fire Board to vote on budget
Published: Sunday, December 12, 2010 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, December 11, 2010 at 10:31 p.m.
HOUMA — The Bayou Cane Fire District Board is set to hold a public hearing and vote Monday on its 2011 budget.
The meeting will be at 6 p.m. at the department's central station, 6166 W. Main St., Houma. If approved as is, the 2011 budget will be $5,187,139, about $126,000 more than this year's budget.
Bayou Cane Fire Chief Charles Long said the increase in the budget came from more taxes coming to the department in 2010.
"We're right on track to be about the same amount of calls in 2010," Long said, adding that there are usually between 2,500 and 2,600 calls a year.
Long said the department will be eliminating the deputy fire chief position. Gregory Boudreaux, who used to have the position, is now a fire engineer. The department will be looking to hire a new training officer in 2011, Long said. The department has 49 paid firefighters.
Board Member Tony Indovina said the department will have about $200,000 left over from this year's budget. He said the department plans to use that money to complete renovations to the station on Savanne Road, as well as finish any work that will need to be done on the new station in Gray.
Long said the Gray station should be nearly finished and manned by the end of the year. While the frame of the new station is finished, firefighters are still working out of a trailer at the site. Renovations to the Savanne Road station should be finished by March.
Another item that will be voted on at the meeting will be to renew the department's current health insurance plan, or to have it downgraded. Long said if the board chooses to stay at its current insurance level, the rates will increase about 15 percent. If the board chooses to downgrade the plan, it will cut the department's cost by half, but employees will have to pay more out of pocket.
The health insurance plan will cost $395,000 next year.
Indovina added today that the budget is larger next year because the department is not getting as much money from its assistance to firefighters grant they received from FEMA.
Indovina said he doesn't see any reason to downgrade the plan, since increased tax revenue will be able to cover the increase in insurance payments.
"The increases are in some of the things we are paying already," Indovina said. "They were upped with retirement expenses, and workers comp went up a little bit."
In November, the Bayou Cane and Coteau fire departments filed a lawsuit against Terrebonne Parish in an attempt to get added to the parish's insurance plan. Indovina said Bayou Cane used to be on the parish's plan, but former Fire Chief Jerry Gautreaux opted out in 2002. Currently, Bayou Cane and the parish both use United Healthcare, albeit on different plans.
The budget is available for public inspection at the fire station between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Turn words into action, turn action into results
October 13, 2011
By Elizabeth Casebeer, USAG Baden-Württemberg Public Affairs
HEIDELBERG, Germany - According to estimates, there are currently about 7 billion people on earth.
While every culture is different, there are few vital things we all share, including the need for food, water and clothing.
For many, the threat of not having these things is real, and it could become a reality in the near future for the rest of the planet.
"We don't want to lecture, but we do want people to be aware and to think about what they are doing," said Marty Hanson, assistant energy program manager for U.S. Army Garrison Baden-Württemberg Department of Public Works.
October is the Department of Energy's energy awareness month, with this year's theme Turn Words into Action, Turn Action into Results.
Originally signed in January 2007 by then-president George W. Bush and updated in 2009 by President Barack Obama, executive order 13423, Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy, and Transportation Management, aims to reduce energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and the use of chemicals and toxic materials, as well as increase purchases of alternative fuel, hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles and more.
While these are government-mandated initiatives, community members can do their part in October and year-round, Hanson said.
If they don't do so already, community members are encouraged to use public transportation, bicycle or car pool Oct. 20, "No Car Day."
On Oct. 21, incorporate meat-less meals into your day in honor of vegetarian day and to reduce the energy required to raise and transport livestock.
On Oct. 31, switch off the lights from 7-8 p.m.
"This really fits in with the Halloween atmosphere," Hanson said.
There are other small things community members can do to reduce their footprint and help conserve energy.
For transportation, Hanson suggested riding a bicycle or walking to stores or work whenever possible, taking public transportation, carpooling, slowing down and avoiding jackrabbit starts and stops, ensuring the engine is properly tuned and the tires are inflated.
Inside the home, set temperatures not higher than 70 F degrees in winter and set air conditioning at not less than 78 F in summer.
Leave windows and doors closed when heating or cooling, except for brief periods to introduce fresh air in winter. Also, ensure window and door seals work properly.
Take showers, not baths and turn the water off while shaving, brushing teeth and washing dishes. Use the proper flushing mode in dual flush toilets, run dishwashers and washing machines only when full, collect rainwater to water indoor plants, water lawns in the evening or early morning to limit evaporation and call in service orders for leaking faucets.
Plug electronic equipment into power strips with switches to avoid standby electricity usage (vampire appliances), replace incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent lights (energy saving bulbs) as they burn out, turn off lights when leaving the room, or open windows for natural light during the day.
At work, use a desk lamp instead of overhead lighting, and turn off office equipment at the end of the day.
The garrison's current policy is to turn off work computers before leaving for the day, except Tuesdays when updates are remotely sent.
"(There are a) number of recommendations for saving energy," Hanson said, but all the responsibility doesn't fall on the individual's shoulders.
The garrison is integrating the executive order in day-to-day practices and has implemented its own policies.
Just after taking command of the garrison in July, Col. Bryan DeCoster signed an energy and a water conservation policy, both of which can be found at www.bw.eur.army.mil/about/policies.html.
"DPW is (also) in the process of developing an energy conservation plan that includes the establishment of Building Energy Monitors at installations where electrical meters are being installed, such as the Exchange facility at Grünstadt, Germersheim Army Depot and Spinelli Barracks.
In addition, environmental officers will be trained to handle BEM responsibilities," Hanson said.
"USAG B-W has connected all buildings in Heidelberg to the Computerized Utilities Monitoring and Control System (and) solar panels will be mounted on one of the DeCA [Defense Commissary Agency] warehouses at Germersheim Army Depot. However, the largest impact is based on how well we manage the resources available to us."
Hanson said it is the community's responsibility to be fiscally and environmentally responsible on behalf of the taxpayers. By making small yet easy steps in reducing energy, Hanson said we are doing two things.
"We are doing right by taxpayers and to ourselves by lowering the amount we pay (in energy costs), and we are doing right by our children and (will hopefully) leave some resources for them.
"At one point, even if you're not responsible for the utility bill, you will have to be one day. It's good to develop good practices now."

Animals Are Just like Us, Claim Scientists; They Make Friends and Share the Same Emotions as Humans
Byline: BY DEBORAH JAMES
SCIENTISTS have discovered animals may experience many of the same emotions as people in everyday life and may even develop friendships within their social groups, and seek revenge.
Researchers in Liverpool found the ability to form social groups, to protect one another, and defend weaker animals from aggressive group members are common traits in humans and animals.
They also found primates react to the environment around them, responding emotionally to others' actions and becoming anxious in times of danger.
Dr Filippo Aureli, reader in Animal Behaviour at John Moores University studied the "self-touching" movements of chimpanzees and spider monkeys, like scratching and grooming, to get an insight into their emotions.
He found definite behavioural similarities in emotional expression between animals and humans, which have a marked effect on behaviour.
But Dr Aureli, who is also co-director of the Research Centre in Evolutionary Anthropology and Palaeoecology, admitted scientists may never fully know how animals really feel emotionally.
He said: "Recent research has shown that there is an increase in this type of (self touching) behaviour in situations of uncertainty, social tension, or impending danger.
"The same can be shown in humans who may bite their nails or pull at their hair in times of anxiety."
He said individual primates such as chimpanzees and monkeys behaved in different ways depending on circumstance and group members they interacted with.
Animals can also have close bonds with one another - for example, primates who spend more time in close proximity will generally be friendlier and less aggressive with each other. …

Man dies after Anaheim shooting
ANAHEIM – A man in his 40s died Friday morning after a shooting that investigators suspect was gang-related, authorities said.
The shooting was reported in the 600 block of Eton Place, within walking distance of two elementary schools.
Neighbors in the area reported hearing several shots being fired in the area just before 11 a.m., said Sgt. Bob Dunn of the Anaheim Police Department.
"They heard the shots, came out, and saw the man on the ground," he said.
The man was lying on the walkway of an apartment complex. He was taken to a hospital, and was pronounced dead at 11:45 a.m., Dunn said.
Investigators are looking for witnesses to the shooting, but have not been able to obtain information about a shooter or the incident, he said.
The victim's identity has not yet been verified.
Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to contact police. Anonymous tips may also be submitted to Orange County Crime Stoppers at 855-TIP-OCCS, or 855-847-6227. Tips can also be submitted online at occrimestoppers.org.

Seeking Shanti
Will the Saptapadi Shape Our Marriages?
HAF's Board member and co-founder, Dr. Aseem Shukla's response to yet another question ("What role, if any, should religious institutions, traditions or beliefs have in the legal act of marriage?") reflects my stance for the current times.
But when I think of marriage in the Hindu-American context, it is not about history or the current context of same-sex marriage; it is of interfaith marriage, and especially the future. The Saptapadi—seven steps that the bride and groom take together around the sacred fire—refers to procreation. This ritual, beautifully described by the character of Gandhi in Richard Attenborough's biographical movie, is a common thread in all Hindu marriages, even most interfaith ones. The bride and groom take seven steps and make seven promises to one another, including that they will care for their children, but there is no clear mention in the vow of what faith the child or children will be.
Friends and acquaintances alike have had interfaith weddings, with events or rituals from both the bride's and groom's religious traditions. I have saved the pamphlets distributed at American Hindu weddings that explain the significance of the Hindu rituals, and appreciate when they clearly spell out the seven vows taken with the seven steps. And I wonder how they will incorporate both faiths into their lives, especially in regard to raising children.
There are a myriad of ways to celebrate one holiday, with a multitude of languages and cultures that are intertwined within the various Hindu sampradaya (traditions, similar to denominations). Hindus don't have a single set of beliefs, or a single scriptural text, so what will the couple teach their children about the Hindu faith? Will the child or children be Hindu, especially when one parent's faith doesn't prescribe conversion or adherence to a particular set of beliefs, and the other's does? And I realize that I think more about interfaith marriages because they will impact the continuity of Hindus and Hinduism in America.

Reviews for J T Townsend Foundation Inc
I'm a therapist and have seen so many of my kids with special needs get awesome equipment that their insurance wouldn't cover and the family could not afford. This group is a blessing to so many!
This foundation is amazing. They have always helped me when needed. It is a wonderful group of people who care about helping people in the community who really need the help
Our family is "Over-The-Moon" pleased by the support provided my daughter through the JT Townsend Foundation. My daughter suffers profoundly from a rare seizure disorder, Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome. She is unable to walk without proper assistance, amongst other disabilities. We had submitted a request to our insurance company for equipment to assist with transfer/mobility and was rigidly denied coverage. We felt helpless and defeated. By word of mouth and glowing recommendations, we were encouraged to contact JT Townsend Foundation. Judy and Kelly were empathetic of our plight. Kelly worked selflessly with a Rifton representative to fulfill my daughter's needs. "Selflessly" meaning she corresponded with Rifton rep on her personal time. Needless-to-say, funding was approved and within one month a Rifton Tram was delivered personally by JT's Mother, Auntie and Miss Kelly. We have been blessed by the purposefulness of the JT Townsend Foundation. They have truly made a significant difference in my daughter's quality of life. There are NO amount of "thanks" to express our gratitude. JT Townsend Foundation far exceeded our expectations. God Bless you ALL!!!!

We were so blessed on 10/11/13 to receive JT's van. You see I have a son Joshua, who on 09/09/2001 fell out of a tree while under the influence of drugs and alcohol and only 20 years old. We started a ministry called Thru the Roof Ministries in 2004 on the request of our son who now was in a wheel chair unable to speak with a traumatic brain injury from the fall. Our old van was on its last legs, as we had traveled across this country a number of times sharing Joshua's story of never giving up and every choice we make matters. JT's legacy of love, compassion, and never giving up continues to this day, as his van still rolls down the road, allowing Joshua and I to share the the gospel of Christ with Thru the Roof Ministries. Thank you all at JTTF, you are such a blessing to so many. Never Give Up, Pastor Harold and Joshua.

This foundation has been such a blessing to my family. My granddaughter has Cerebral Palsy and she is wheelchair bound. The wheelchair we had was not on that would aid in her therapy or comfort. We found it extremely difficult to feed her as the wheelchair we had was a standard child's wheelchair with no ability to tilt. I sought out this foundation for assistance in obtaining an activity chair that would meet so many of our needs in caring for my grandchild. The graciousness of the volunteers and Ms. Townsend was unbelievable! Meeting the team in person and watching my grandchild sit in her new chair for the first time was such a joy. We all cried that day. It has truly changed all our lives. This foundation made it possible for my youngest grandchild to see her sister eye to eye for the first time, She could not stop hugging and kissing her sister because this activity chair lowered to the floor. I have really enjoyed watching Lavonne take a nap in her chair comfortably without having to move her to a bed all the time.
Sometimes you know you want to volunteer and you are not sure where to volunteer your time. I have since offered my services in whatever capacity the foundation may need going forward; thank you for helping make my decision to offer my services to you. The right people are on the JT Townsend Foundation team! I felt as though Kelly was a part of my immediate family, we even cried together!
Thank you so much for changing our lives for the better. God Bless You!!

As a 72 year old grandma with disabled grandson, I had hard time getting him in and out of my auto. This foundation made a dream come true. He climbs in his chair and off we go. After 10 years of searching for help this foundation came forward. Cudos to these folks for making transporting Dillon easier. Carolyn Patten

JTTF provided us with a chair my son desperately needed for feeding and interaction with family. Insurance would not cover it and it's not something we would have ever been able to afford.
1 person found this review helpful
My son was born with a congenital heart defect known as Hypoplastic Left-Heart Syndrome, which requires him to be in constant need of several medications and doctor visits, just to survive. When our family were faced with the possibility of loosing his insurance, JT Townsend stepped in and helped us get things straighted out, and all of our worries suddleny disappeared. They are truly a God send and I could never thank them enough for what they did for me and my little man.

Police: 5-year-old dies after ATV crash Saturday in Shaftsbury
SHAFTSBURY Police are investigating the death of a 5-year-old boy who died after an all-terrain vehicle crash on Hidden Valley Road in Shaftsbury on Saturday.
A press release from the Vermont State Police said Benjamin Prouty, 5, of Shaftsbury, was pronounced dead at the Southwestern Vermont Medical Center in Bennington.
After the initial investigation, police said the incident does not appear suspicious.
Detective Sgt. Sam Capogrossi of the Vermont State Police said police were called around 7 p.m. Saturday because of a call made to a 911 operator that a child was not breathing as a result of an ATV crash at his home on Hidden Valley Road in Shaftsbury.
Troopers from the Shaftsbury barracks of the Vermont State Police went to the home immediately and assisted in performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation until an Arlington Rescue Squad ambulance arrived to take the boy to the hospital.
Detectives with the Vermont State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation initiated an investigation of the death. The childs body was taken to the office of the Chief Medical Examiner for a postmortem examination.
Capogrossi said no further information will be available pending the results of the autopsy and completion of the investigation.
Vermont state law allows riders younger than 12 to use ATVs if they are on land owned by their parents.MORE IN This Just InCHELSEA Krace Kay pumped in eight goals and five teammates scored two goals apiece Friday.

Always research any new additions you would like for your saltwater aquarium. In particular, know how and what to feed and any specific care requirements. Be careful not to base your choices on color and appearance alone. If you really want a particular type of saltwater fish - do your homework.
LiveAquaria.com is a great resource for stocking options and information on your new altwater aquarium.
Damselfish are the fish typically used to cycle an aquarium. They are extremely hardy and very forgiving. The downside to damsels is that they become very aggressive as they grow larger in your saltwater aquarium. They come in various colors such as the more commonly available Blue Damsel, 3 Stripe Damsel and Domino Damsel. Damselfish are typically the least expensive saltwater fish on the market.

Inflation and housing: More Fed easing coming soon?AdvantageVoice® Blog—
Brian Jacobsen, Ph.D., CFA, CFP®, Chief Portfolio Strategist
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) declined 0.4% in April. Year-on-year, the CPI is up 1.1%. Back-to-back months of declines in gasoline prices pushed the headline number lower. Over the past 12 months, food prices are up 1.5% and gasoline prices are down 8.3%. The decline in gasoline and energy prices is helping consumers bear the burden of higher taxes.
Producer prices (prices received by producers) decreased in April by 0.7%, and consumer prices (prices paid by consumers) declined by 0.4%. Deflation may be the Federal Reserve's more immediate concern when it meets next on June 18 and 19. Considering that housing starts in April came in at a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of 853,000—down 16.5% from the March rate, but up 13.1% from April 2012—the Fed may want to keep mortgage rates low by possibly increasing the pace of mortgage-backed securities purchases. If the hallmark of the economic recovery is the recovery in housing, the Fed may not want to jeopardize the progress that has been made.

2004 Readers' Choice Awards
We know the timing of this article puts us at a disadvantage. It's November of a US presidential election year, and it's hard for our Readers' Choice awards to compete. But, we know you've been waiting to find out whether C beat C++ for Favorite Programming Language and where Gentoo fell in the top three in the Favorite Distribution category. It's time for the awards.
Ximian Evolution
Once again, the top three choices in this category were GUI-based clients. The only difference between this year's top three and last year's is the order: Mozilla jumped to first place from third, Evolution dropped to second and KMail dropped to third. The fifth-place finisher came from the write-in votes—the new Mozilla Thunderbird was only a few votes shy of fourth-place mutt this year.
Debian GNU/Linux
Debian won first place for the second year in a row, picking up almost 300 more votes than second-place Mandrakelinux. Last year's number two, Red Hat, fell to fourth this year, as Gentoo cracked the top three to come in third. The most popular write-in vote was Red Hat's all-free, community-oriented Fedora, coming in at number eight.
HP xw8200 Linux Workstation
Monarch Athlon 64 System Special
Seventy-five percent of voters agreed with the sentiments of the reader who voted for his "bastard child of desire and affordability", the ever-popular homemade desktop workstation. Like proud parents rattling off the list of talents and skills their offspring possess, voters wrote in the entire list of components in their homemade systems. Other write-in voters echoed the opinion of LJ contributing editor Greg Kroah-Hartman, who selected the Apple Power Mac G5, well supported in Linux, as his desktop of choice in this year's Editors' Choice Awards.
MySQL v4.0
Oracle 9i DB
This year's top three favorite databases were a repeat of last year's top three. Although the Editors picked PostgreSQL as their favorite back in August, readers selected MySQL over PostgreSQL by a 2 to 1 ratio. Combined, MySQL and PostgreSQL own 78% of the votes. Add in Oracle 9i and that percentage climbs to 83%. So what else are readers using for their database work? SQLite, GemStone/S and Firebird picked up less than a hundred votes apiece, and Versant was the most popular write-in vote.
Cooking with Linux
Kernel Korner
Paranoid Penguin
Ah, Marcel. Like Susan Sarandon, David Bowie and '02 Bordeaux, Cooking with Linux columnist Marcel Gagnékeeps getting better with age. Whether he's showing us a new game, recommending a lovely Australian red or demonstrating a little monitoring GUI, he's always supplying us with useful information in fun ways.
Linux in a Nutshell, 3rd Edition, Ellen Siever, et al.
Running Linux, 4th Edition, Matt Welsh, et al.
Advanced UNIX Programming, 2nd Edition, Marc Rochkind
I was beginning to think I'd never see a new title in the top three spots in the book category—just advancing edition numbers. But after five-plus years, we finally have a new one. Advanced UNIX Programming by Marc J. Rochkind landed in third place this year. Yes, it's a second edition of a book originally published in 1985, but the content is mostly new. The most popular write-in vote continued to be man pages.
Arkeia Network Backup v5.2
For another year, tar was by far the most popular backup utility, gathering votes from 65% of readers who responded. Amanda came in a distant second, garnering 5% of all votes. On the write-in side, rsync took the top spot. After that, it was a onesy-twosy game of Bacula, personal shell scripts and proprietary offerings. This is weird, though: no one said backups are for wimps.
I'm pretty sure that gentoo is #1 now. Is there 2007 award for compare?
Very nice article. My
My favorite distribution - gentoo(ubuntu?) :)

In modern computer systems, privacy and security are mandatory. However, connections from the outside over public networks automatically imply risks. One easily available solution to avoid eavesdroppers' attempts is SSH. But, its wide adoption during the past 21 years has made it a target for attackers, so hardening your system properly is a must.
Additionally, in highly regulated markets, you must comply with specific operational requirements, proving that you conform to standards and even that you have included new mandatory authentication methods, such as two-factor authentication. In this ebook, I discuss SSH and how to configure and manage it to guarantee that your network is safe, your data is secure and that you comply with relevant regulations.Get the Guide

Boyfriend's Looks Make My Skin Crawl
Prudie counsels a woman whose new guy has unsightly moles—and other advice seekers.
Washington, DC: I'm 24 years old and have recently decided to stop talking to my father. (I live in D.C.; he lives in the Midwest.) He was diagnosed with bipolar disorder when I was 14 and refused to get treatment. He is verbally and physically abusive with me (when I'm around) and my mother, but my mother does not want to leave him. I haven't talked to him for over a month. My mother says that he rants about the fact that I don't talk to him and that it is taxing for her. She's asked me to call him once a week. I've tried, for her sake, and I really don't have anything to say, nor do I have any desire to speak with this man. Is it selfish of me to tell her that I don't want to talk to him?
Emily Yoffe: Your mother has decided she's stuck—but fortunately you're not. Bipolar disorder is a terrible disease, but it can be helped enormously with treatment. Your father is responsible for his destructive decision to let the illness run its course. You could have a phone conversation with him in which you tell him you love him, but unless he gets treatment for his illness, you will not be able to have a relationship with him because he acts abusively toward you. Then continue a separate relationship with your mother, but don't let her guilt-trip you because you don't call. It is up to her to draw her own lines with him.
Atlanta: I can't believe people write you to ask about destination weddings. Don't they read your column on a regular basis? Prudie don't like! I am astonished by people's unmitigated gall. I simply refuse every destination wedding I'm invited to, and I've been invited to some beauties.
Emily Yoffe: I don't think a blanket refusal of the destination wedding is necessary. I have friends who've been to ones they've loved. If you've always wanted to go to a place, and the wedding gets you there, why not? But you're right, I think generally this is a most unfortunate trend that only adds time and expense to an event that has become the marital Long March.
Pittsburgh, Pa.: My mother has mild to moderate dementia manifested in short-term memory loss. My sisters and I visited her attorney with her in the beginning of the year to help her make some updates to her will (at her request). After her will was redone, the attorney sent copies of my mother's will to my sisters and me. I was horrified—I believe this document should remain private until after her death—so I chose not to read it. My oldest sister did read it, and she and her husband are now upset about its contents. According to her, the will says that if she predeceases our mother, the money that is left to her will pass to her two children. Here's the part she is mad about: My mother does not want her husband to have control of the funds if their children are under the age of 18—my mother has requested that I (and I am the executor of her estate) distribute the funds for education, health care, etc., until they come of age. Her husband was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and suffered from post-traumatic stress syndrome, nearly drove his family to bankruptcy, and has had a spotty employment record over the past five years. My sister and her husband are so mad at my mother that they will not be coming to Thanksgiving, which is the only time of the year that our (rather small) family gathers. Naturally, our 82-year-old mother is extremely upset, and my sister will not tell her anything—she just keeps making lame excuses about missing our family's annual traditional gathering. They have said they will not travel at Christmas or Easter, either, because of their deep faith and religious activities with their church (I know, ironic, huh?) Also, none of us lives near our mother. It's beginning to sound like my oldest sister will not see our mother ever again. My other sister and I don't know what—if anything—we should do. Any advice?
Emily Yoffe: What an awful situation, which unfortunately vindicates your mother's assessment that the money for the children should be protected from the whims of their parents. You and your sister can sit down with your oldest sister and acknowledge that you understand that she and her husband are upset, but that it is very common for money that is to go to the next generation have limitations put on it. Say that this was not meant as a slap at her and her husband but a way of making sure the grandchildren get help with their tuition, which will benefit the whole family. Impress upon her that if she becomes estranged now, the time will be short to heal this breach, and that the entire family will suffer. Then let it be. If they choose to reject the family, make sure the rest of you work extra hard to make your mother's life filled with love.
Emily Yoffe: Thanks, everyone. Talk to you next week.

DH tried to call into work and see if someone else can work third shift for him tonight. The one girl that would has only had two or three hours of sleep today. The other two people he called refused to answer their phones. So... DH is working tonight and I'm home alone with my kids.
I know I should call or go to L&D, but I don't have anyone to watch DS and DD. And DS has school tomorrow. And I can't control a five and two year old alone in L&D even if I said screw their sleep and took them with. (And of course, neither napped today so they're extra fussy.)

Var the Golden (or simply Var) was a peninsula at the far south-eastern region of Faerûn. In front of it sat Ulgarth. Its name came from huge quantities of wheat fields found throughout the land.
Like Durpar, Var the Golden followed the teachings of Satama. Both constituted with Estagund the Shining Lands. The city of Vaelen hosted as a Shou Town. (source)

Slim FX by Anabolic Xtreme
Anabolic Xtreme has developed a energy boosting supplement that claims to boost your energy levels for up to 12 hours. It does this by using a time-releasing capsule to keep the active ingredients in steady supply to your body. Furthermore, Anabolic Xtreme also states that Slim FX is able to suppress your appetite as well. With elevated energy levels, you can take your workouts to the next level while the appetite suppression should help you consume fewer calories during the day. The combination of these two factors should lead to increased weight loss because you will be able to burn more calories than you take in.
Slim FX Scientific Backing
Like all supplements, Slim FX makes bold claims about how impactful it will be as part of your weight loss program; however, what does the science say? When you first look at the ingredients of Slim FX it can be fairly confusing as to what is actually in the Slim FX capsules. After close analysis the ingredients are all stimulants or have stimulant like qualities related to caffeine. For example, the Guaranine is a derivative of the Guarana plant and with it being a -xanthine it is a caffeine-like stimulant.
Caffeine effects the body in many ways that the product Slim FX uses to support its use. When your body is stimulated with caffeine, it burns more energy and calories while you are in a rested state. This means you burn slightly more calories throughout the day even when you aren't exercising. The stimulating effect also influences your brain and keeps you more alert and focused which can leave you feeling energized. Caffeine also has a small appetite suppressing effect on your body. This may be due to an increased level of free plasma fatty acids due to caffeine's effect at liberating fat from fat cells.
The slow release of the formula probably helps to mediate these effects a bit more controllably than just consuming pure caffeine; however, the inclusion of less studied ingredients but suggestively more potent ingredients does leave room for concern. Overall, Slim FX can be a great tool in assisting with weight loss when your dieting and exercising properly; however, it cannot be stressed enough that you seek medical council before supplementing with Slim FX.
Manufacture Suggested use of Slim FX
- Prior to use, consult with your doctor to ensure Slim FX is safe for you. Slim FX has powerful stimulant related effects and can cause adverse reactions in individuals with cardiac abnormalities or organ dysfunction.
- Open Slim FX bottle and remove one Slim FX capsule.
- Consume capsule orally upon waking up in the morning with 8 oz. of water.
- You may consume an additional capsule two to four hours later; however, do not do this until you have tested the effects of one capsule on your body. Higher doses might be harder for your body to handle; therefore, testing your reaction before using a stronger dose is highly encouraged.
- DL-Phenylalanine
- Beta-Phenethylamine HCl
- Guaranine (1,3,7,8- Tetramethylxanthine)
- Griffonia Simplicifolia extract (standardized to 95% 5-Hydroxy-l-tryptophan)
- 1MeTIQ™ (1-Methyl-1,2,3,4- tetrahydroisoquinoline)
- Rauwolscine HCl
