PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- FMC Corporation (NYSE:FMC) today announced the company is on track to meet or exceed aggressive performance targets as part of its Vision 2015 strategy to profitably double the company's size.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111101/NE97440LOGO )
At its 2012 Investor Day conference in New York, Pierre Brondeau, FMC president, CEO and chairman, said that over the last three years, FMC has executed its growth plan and has capitalized on the unique strengths of the company to deliver strong performance against Vision 2015 targets announced in 2010.
"We developed an aggressive, but achievable, strategy to unlock the growth potential of FMC, leading to a larger, more profitable, faster growing specialty chemicals company," Brondeau said. "Halfway through our plan, we are well on our way to achieve or exceed our targets. We've delivered exceptional results over the last several years, despite continuing macroeconomic uncertainty."
Strong Progress to Deliver Vision 2015
The company provided an update on its expectations for Vision 2015 during the event:
- FMC expects to exceed its $5 billion 2015 sales target by at least 10 percent. This would represent more than doubling of company revenues since 2009.
- The company expects to meet or exceed its 2015 EBIT target of $1.2 billion, approximately 2.5 times its EBIT in 2009. EBIT is up 50 percent over the last three years.
- Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) will remain well above the Vision 2015 target of mid-teens or higher. The company has expanded total EBIT margins, up more than 120 basis points from 2009 through today, despite significant growth investments. The company expects EBIT margins to continue to expand an additional 230 basis points by 2015.
- FMC continues to maintain disciplined and balanced cash deployment, with more than $1.5 billion deployed in the last three years. Approximately 40 percent has been used for organic reinvestment, approximately 20 percent for external growth, and approximately 35 percent returned to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases.
Updated Vision 2015 Expectations in Reportable Segments
FMC expects its Agricultural Products Group to deliver sales of approximately $2.8 billion and EBIT of approximately $675 million in 2015. Performance drivers include a rich organic growth pipeline with sustained premium margins and a unique manufacturing and R&D model that delivers results at lower cost.
The Specialty Chemicals Group is expected to deliver sales of approximately $1.2 billion and EBIT of approximately $275 million in 2015. Driving this performance are continued solid, steady performance from the BioPolymer business with the new natural colors and pectin product lines helping to accelerate growth. Lithium performance is anticipated to improve, driven by mix optimization and cost reduction initiatives.
The Industrial Chemicals Group is expected to deliver sales of approximately $1.4 billion, generating EBIT of approximately $250 million in 2015. This performance will be driven by the company's market leadership in soda ash, the continuing shift toward higher value specialties in Peroxygens and growing the new FMC Environmental Solutions business unit.
Cash Deployment Through 2015
FMC expects to have approximately $4 billion in cash to deploy over the plan horizon ending in 2015. Approximately $3 billion will be generated from cumulative cash flow from operations, with the remainder coming from the company's borrowing capacity. The company expects to invest more in organic growth opportunities than originally contemplated at the start of Vision 2015, and will continue to pursue strategic external investments. Large, complex or transformational acquisitions are not expected over the plan horizon.
The company earlier today announced that its Board of Directors approved a 50 percent increase in its dividend. In the future, FMC's dividend is expected to grow broadly in line with the rate of earnings growth. Furthermore, the company expects to continue share repurchases at a pace of $100 million to $150 million per year, with timing and size of repurchases opportunistic relative to other uses of cash.
Earnings Per Share Growth
FMC expects adjusted earnings per share (EPS) to grow at a rate of approximately 18 to 22 percent per year from 2012 through 2015, continuing the company's strong EPS performance. For 2013, while the company is not quite ready to provide formal guidance, the company does anticipate adjusted EPS growth in the mid-teens percent range versus 2012.
Beyond 2015
"Our management team is intently focused on delivering what we said we'd do," said Brondeau. "We're on the right trajectory to meet or exceed our Vision 2015 targets, and we're planting the right seeds today to ensure strong profitable growth well beyond 2015. We continue to evolve our portfolio, investing in current product lines and pursuing new ones. Over the next few years, we fully expect meaningful contributions from the new FMC Environmental Solutions business, from new natural colors and pectin product lines and from our expanding Agricultural Products portfolio," Brondeau added.
"Our growth through 2015 and beyond also will be driven by technology investments that support commercial success, continued expansion in fast-growing rapidly developing economies and our ongoing rebalancing of FMC's centralized/decentralized organizational model that leverages our size without compromising strong business accountability," Brondeau said.

Cure for AIDS may be not that far off
Once mostly fatal, now manageable disaease, could be conquered in the foreseeable future
(Please see accompanying article on fighting the stigma of having HIV.)
AIDS was once considered a virtual death sentence. Scientific advances have turned it into a manageable disease. Now there's reason to hope that final victory — a vaccine preventing infection, and an actual cure — may be possible in the foreseeable future.
The struggle against AIDS and HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, has taken place for 35 years. The gloom of the early days began to dissipate in the mid-1990s when effective anti-HIV drugs were discovered.
And the discoveries keep coming. Vaccine researchers keep finding weak spots in HIV vulnerable to powerful "broadly neutralizing" antibodies. Last week, another weak spot, the seventh discovered so far and the third this year alone, was reported. All three have been identified by teams including scientists from The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, a major center of vaccine research.
AIDS researchers who have worked in the field from the beginning, such as Dr. Anthony Fauci, marvel at the change in patient survival that anti-HIV drugs have accomplished.
"In the early '80s, the median survival time of my patients was six to eight months," said Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. "Today, if a 25-year-old comes into the same clinic that I took care of them 30 years ago ... you can project they will live another 50 — that is five-zero — years."
This staggering transformation of one of the most relentless diseases into something that can be lived with bears evidence that the expenditure of billions of dollars and untold hours of research and treatment are paying off.
HIV has been attacked from nearly every conceivable angle, from drug therapy to discouraging risky behavior. Public health programs such as providing condoms and promoting education about avoiding high-risk behaviors complement the medical and scientific advances in understanding and blocking HIV.
And under a program called PEPFAR, created in 2003 by President George W. Bush, lifesaving HIV drugs have been sent abroad to impoverished populations who can't afford them.
The result of this kitchen-sink approach, Fauci said, is that over the past 10 years, the number of deaths from HIV worldwide has dropped 35 percent, as has the number of new infections.
And while no effective vaccine is available, creative use of drugs to block AIDS infection provides the next best thing. Using what is called "pre-exposure prophylaxis," medication is given to those at high risk, such as non-monogamous gay men and intravenous drug users, who can pass along fluids containing HIV.
"If you give them one pill a day of a drug called Truvada, you can dramatically diminish the likelihood that they will be infected," Fauci said.
Treating infected people to bring their viral levels below the limits of detection also greatly lessens the chance they will pass along HIV to an uninfected partner.
Treatment breakthroughs
A drug called Retrovir, or AZT, provided the first real breakthrough for treating AIDS. The drug, approved in 1987, inhibits replication of the virus. That gives the patients' immune system a break from the continual viral assault.
AZT is far from ideal, causing side effects including acid reflux, anemia and liver damage. So drug companies searched for better drugs. The goal, then and now, is to reduce the "viral load" to such a low level that mutations are also inhibited. Fewer virus particles means fewer chances to mutate and develop resistance.
Protease inhibitors provided another breakthrough. These drugs target a viral enzyme HIV needs to replicate.
One of the first protease inhibitors was Viracept. Developed by San Diego's Agouron Pharmaceuticals, Viracept was approved in 1997.

The present invention relates to a device and process for carrying through quality management while printing a web on a rotational roller printing machine.
It has up to now been customary to take out and measure a printed specimen. Thus, a continuous registration of the printed specimens is not possible. Further, the results cannot easily be assigned to the production process because the specimens are not automatically marked.
It has been proposed to provide rotational sheet printing machines with a sheet inspection system, arranged in an extended line of the sheet deposit where each sheet produced is photographed by several video cameras and compared with a so-called master sheet. Deviations of the quality produced from the quality of the master sheet will be indicated. In case of undue deviations the respective sheets can be marked or singled out. The measured values are not recorded.
The speed of the video cameras employed, to register the whole sheet, is relatively slow. For this very reason the known arrangement is not suitable for rotational roller printing machines. With a rotational sheet printing machine the relatively low speed is of minor importance, since the speed of production is only relatively low. Further, video cameras cannot register the spectral distribution, unless great efforts are made. Only the basic colors are therefore registered. To this end special filters are provided. The colors between the three basic colors have to be interpolated, thus resulting in relatively high inaccuracy.
Accordingly, it is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a device and process for carrying through quality management in rotational roller printing machines such that inline measuring without limiting the speed of production is ensured while high accuracy is maintained.
The device underlying the object of the present invention is realized by a device for carrying through quality management while printing a web on a rotational roller printing machine with at least one measuring head spanning the width of the printed web and adjustable over the width containing a spectrometer and a light source, and which can be activated depending on the product by means of an encoder assigned to the rotational roller printing machine, and with a control device which can continuously record the measuring signals of each measuring head. Accordingly, at least one adjustable measuring head containing a spectrometer and a light source which span the printed web are provided. This measuring head can be activated, depending on the product, by means of an encoder assigned to the rotational roller printing machine. Further, a control device is provided that can continuously record the measuring signals of each measuring head.
The process underlying the object of the present invention is one which carries through quality management while printing a web on a rotational roller printing machine, where a periodic, simultaneous measurement of color density and spectral distribution in at least one selected point of the periodically returning printing pattern is carried out, where the measurement results during production are continuously measured and stored, and where at least at the end of the production, an analysis by predetermined criteria is carried through. Accordingly, it is possible to carry through a periodic, simultaneous measurement of color density and spectral distribution in at least one selected point of the periodically returning printing pattern; further, to continuously record and store the measurement results during production and to carry through an analysis by predetermined criteria at least at the end of the production.
Due to laterally adjusting the measuring heads and their triggering by the encoder, practically all positions on the printed web can be reached. This allows the operator to choose crucial areas and to assign them a measuring head.
Since the entire visible spectral range is measured, high accuracy between the three basic colors is achieved. The continuous registration and recording of the values measured enables an exact control and in particular an exact quality check; this is of importance, if the customer complains about the quality later, as is often said to happen, especially in printing large ads, etc. Storing of the measured values during the entire production process facilitates various charts in an advantageous way, showing existing deviations at a glance. At the same time, however, it is possible to monitor the measured results during the production process and to intervene as soon as the tolerance limits are exceeded and to provide for the keeping of the predetermined tolerances and for marking or singling out spoiled webs. The object of the invention has thus solved the problem in a highly economical way.
Advantageous embodiments and expedient developments of the above-mentioned measures will become evident from the following description of the embodiment taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, which illustrates, by way of example, the principles of the invention.
FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a device according to the present invention with signal flow arrows;
FIG.2 is an example of a representation of a color point assigned to a measuring point;
FIG. 3 is an example of a time-density-diagram assigned to a measuring point;
FIG. 4 is an example of a spectral distribution diagram assigned to a measuring point;
FIG. 5 is a partial top view showing the relative dimensions of the measuring head and a measuring field according to one embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 1 only indicates the last printing group representing a rotational roller printing machine by which a printed web 2 is printed. The rotational roller printing machine 1 can be an offset-rotational roller printing machine. The construction of such machines and the way they work is known and do not require any further explanation.
A dryer 3 is arranged behind the rotational roller printing machine 1; a cooling device, not explained in detail, can be arranged behind the dryer 3. The printed web 2 is then passed through a folding device 4, simply indicated by a former. Within the area between the dryer 3 and the assigned cooling device respectively and the folding device 4, the printed web 2 passes through a measuring device comprising several measuring heads 5. To avoid flapping, a relatively short web section, limited by two idle rollers 6, is assigned to the measuring device.
By means of the measuring heads 5, the color density and the spectral distribution of the color are simultaneously measured in selected points and/or point areas 7 in the periodically returning printing pattern in the printed web 2. The measuring heads can be laterally shifted along cross pieces 8 arranged at right angles to the printed web 2 and can be adjusted manually and/or by assigned drive motors along the cross pieces 8. In order to reach the assigned measuring point, the measuring heads 5 are shifted along the assigned cross piece 8 corresponding to the lateral coordinate of the assigned measuring point. In the circumferencial direction the measuring point is determined by a high resolution encoder 9 that is activated by the rotational roller printing machine; the encoder 9 provides the trigger point for triggering each measuring head 5 in each assigned measuring point.
The measuring heads 5 contain a spectrometer which, when triggered, registers simultaneously the spectral distribution of the color and color density in the assigned measuring field 7. Each time the periodically returning measuring field 7 on the printed web 2 passes through under the assigned measuring head 5, the spectrometer is triggered.
To ensure a reliable measurement, the measuring heads 5 contain an exposure device. It may be a permanently lighting quarz light or preferably a flash which is periodically triggered together with the spectrometer, thus ensuring high light intensity while the energy required is relatively low.
A control device is assigned to the measuring device. The control device comprises a central processing unit 12 which contains a recording memory 10, it receives the signals of the encoder 9, and has an intersection to the operator, for example a keyboard 11; it further contains a sub unit 13 for locally operating the measuring heads 5. By means of the central processing unit 12 the commands provided by the operator and the encoder 9, the control signals for setting and activating the measuring heads 5 are determined. The operator enters the coordinates of the respective measuring point. The above-mentioned control signals pass through the signal line 14 to the subsequently arranged sub unit 13 which operates the measuring heads 5 locally. To shorten the lateral adjustment of the measuring heads 5 a manual presetting can be carried through so that finally only a fine setting is required.
During operation the sub unit 13 simultaneously processes the data delivered by the measuring heads 5 such that they can be passed to the central processing unit 12 through a suitable intersection. This is illustrated in the example by arrows of the signal line 14 pointing in both directions. The data passed on to the central processing unit 12 are processed by the central processing unit 12 according to color density and spectral distribution and continuously stored by the recording memory 10 during the whole length of the production.
To ensure high accuracy in the measurements carried through by the measuring heads 5, a reference measurement is carried through parallel to the measuring by the measuring heads 5. The corresponding reference measuring device 15 is assigned to sub unit 13. A further measurement for achieving high accuracy consists in balancing temperature fluctuations that influence the measuring results. To this end a compensation device 15a is provided which is also assigned to the sub unit 13; the compensation device 15a can compensate temperature fluctuations by way of calculation occurring in the measuring area according to a pre-determined program. The temperature can be registered through analysis of the signals (dark values) emitted by the measuring heads 5 while the exposure devices are not activated so that additional temperature feelers are not required, as the signals (dark values) are dependent on the temperature.
Further, mistakes, caused by stray light, are to be eliminated. In order to achieve this, each one of the measuring heads 5 are provided with a tube-shape housing whose front opening is situated very close to the paper run 2 thus creating only a small gap through which stray light can penetrate. The diameter of the tube-shaped housing of the measuring heads 5 is larger than the diameter of the field to be measured (FIG. 5). thus reducing the intensity of the stray light within the measuring field. Further, the intensity of the light emitted by the light exposure device is set at a very high level, thus reducing the effect of the stray light. In order to eliminate reflections on a glossy background the light is passed under glassfibres at an angle of preferably 45� towards the paper surface.
The current values measured by the measuring heads 5 will be represented in an advantageous way. To this end, a display device 16 is provided which can be controlled by the central processing unit 12 of the control device. A suitable display field can be assigned to each one of the measuring heads 5.
As illustrated, the central processing unit 12 of the control device can be connected to the control device 17 of the rotational roller printing machine 1, as is indicated by the signal line 18. Thus, an error message is transmited to the control device 17 of the rotational roller printing machine 1 as soon as the current measured values of the measuring heads 5 exceed a limit of tolerance defined in the central processing unit 12 of the control device. In such case, counter measures can be taken by means of the control device 17 at the side of the printing machine; e.g. the setting of the color system can be changed, as is indicated in FIG. 1 by signal line 19. Simultaneously, an alarm device 20 can be activated to alarm the operators. It is further possible to mark the products concerned by opening spray nozzles carrying suitable paint or to single them out by opening the sluices for waste sheets.
When the production is finished the data stored in the recording memory 10 can be analyzed according to various criteria. It has been proven sensible and meaningful to carry out an analysis of the so-called color location of the respective measuring point; three vectors assigned to the three basic colors are used. FIG. 2 is based on a respective diagram. This diagram shows the development of the color during the continuous printing process. Point 21 characterizes the ideal value. The field 22 surrounding the point 21 characterizes the spectral area within which the color has moved. It becomes obvious at a glance whether or not a tolerance limit, e.g. represented by a circle round the point 21, has been maintained.
A further possibility consists in recording the development of the color density with time. FIG. 3 is based on such a time-density-diagram. The illustrated example shows the progression of the color density of the three basic colors in relation to the production time. The lines 23 characterize the ideal progression. The curves 24 show the actual progression.
FIG. 4 illustrates a spectral distribution curve 25 that shows the spectral distribution of all colors within the assigned measuring area over the entire visible spectral range. It is possible to show the spectral distribution of individual measurements or an integration of several or of all measurements.
The present invention therefore constitutes an important element of reliable quality management. The present invention offers in particular the possibility to exactly proove that quality was produced so that unjustified complaints can be countered later.

WASHINGTON (CBSNewYork/AP) — The Senate has easily approved Brooklyn native Janet Yellen's nomination to head the Federal Reserve.
Monday's 56-26 vote makes Yellen the first woman to lead the central bank in its century-long history. It puts an economist in the post who has long focused on fighting unemployment and who backed the Fed's recent efforts to spur the economy with low interest rates and huge bond purchases.
Yellen, 67, will begin her four-year term as chair on Feb. 1. She replaces Ben Bernanke, who has held the job for eight years dominated by the Great Recession and his efforts to fight it.
Yellen has been Fed vice chair since 2010.
Nominated in October by President Barack Obama, Yellen will be the first Fed chair picked by a Democrat since President Jimmy Carter chose Paul Volcker in 1979.
Yellen was raised in the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn and graduated from Fort Hamilton High School.

Relax, I mean outdoor swings! Recently, for a client's kids basement play room I selected the Dedon Nest (above). The nest is a cozy little space full of pillows and great for kids. It can rest on the floor or hang suspended from the ceiling, a porch beam, or a tree outside. Even though it's snowing in some parts of the country, it's time to start thinking about updating your outdoor spaces with something fun...like a swing! A sculptural style swing in this romantic outdoor setting is a very beautiful option. It looks like it belongs outside in nature. This I found on Raina's Blog, a funky swing hangs in the lounge area on an indoor/outdoor pool. How sublime. For a less expensive option than the Dedon or an antique, there are many cute options on Ebay. This one looks like a little cocoon. This is a simple wicker options with colorful pillows added. I definitely encourage the addition of colorful pillows. Serena and Lily always comes up with something cute, and this rattan swing is no exception. This is also a great option on a lower budget. Now all I need is a tree and some grass. This one is from Kettal and comes in ivory, brown, and a combination of the 2--and can be hung from a tree too! If you don't have much space or if you just have a teeny tiny backyard, a swing would be a stylin and fun addition to your outdoor space. Also, probably a safer version of a tree house, too. The Dedon Nest is a good option for a few people and the other swings could be another seating option with a small sofa and some chairs. Do you have a swing like this?? Alicia B.

via MyHomeIdeas Keith sent me to an article on suspended beds which I was intrigued by. I have no clue what the history of hanging or suspended beds are -- this feels like something that would have originated in the 70s -- but with a little bit of imagination they can have a Victorian nautical flair, like the one below. via MyHomeIdeas I'm not sure I'd put one inside a house, but they'd be great on a porch (as shown below). I think it would be perfect for a beach house (unfortunately the in-law's beach house that I keep decorating in my head -- my FIL so gets steampunk -- just washed away with Hurricane Ike. Sigh.) You would think there would be instructions for building one of these on Instructables, but the closest I found was this comment by the owner of the bed below, featured on Apartment Therapy: The suspended bed on our screened-in porch. It took about a day and cost less than $100 to build. Although I confess I didn't do much of the building — my husband and brother are responsible for that. I'm sure you could figure out how to build one, however. Some of the most charming, old fashioned looking hanging beds are for sale at Bedzz without Legzzz.

Guest post by Cori Kindred hello poppytalk readers! cori kindred here again, on this sunny, chilly day. so my boyfriend and i might be moving soon into a house (!) with a backyard (!!!). i haven't had a backyard in years, so i've been getting excited about how i'm going to decorate and fix it up. first up: twinkle lights to add a sprinkle of magic. next: a hammock so i can read or take a nap in the dappled sunshine. or if i'm feeling really fancy, a hanging bed! my dream studio: a glass treehouse or this one: a tiny victorian cottage and something a little bit more realistic: a pretty vintage wagon filled with succulents. hope you enjoyed this tour through my dream backyard. i know i did!

Exercising With Diabetes
Exercise works so well at bringing down your blood sugar that you need to make sure it doesn't drop too low. You'll want to time exercise to your medication or insulin schedule, but you should also be prepared to deal with hypoglycemia if it occurs.
- Know the signs. Confusion, shaking, lightheadedness, or difficulty speaking all indicate that you should quit exercising immediately.
- Have a snack handy. When blood sugar is too low, you can quickly bring it back up with a low-fat, high-carb snack, such as 10 small jelly beans or 1/2 cup of nondiet soft drink or juice.

There are shadows under Darren Wright's eyes and his phone rings off the hook.
It has been a long and "incredibly difficult" week.
Wright has been wearing three "hats" since a triple fatality at Rakaia devastated two close-knit Sumner families.
Abi Hone, 12, her best friend, Ella Summerfield, 12, and Ella's mother, Sally Rumble, 49, were killed in a crash on their way to Ohau last Saturday.
Sally's husband, Shane Summerfield, 48, was badly injured in the crash. He was told about Abi, Ella and Sally after coming out of a coma.
Wright, the Hone family's spokesman, is deputy chairman of the board of trustees at Sumner School, where Abi and Ella were former pupils, and chairman of the Sumner Community Residents' Association.
He said he was blown away by the support that had been flowing in "city-wide".
"Somebody said to me, 'Tragedies like this open up all these boxes that we have tried to close'. It is an incredibly difficult time. Two beautiful girls and a beautiful woman were taken away tragically and instantly."
A local company donated a gazebo for Abi's funeral in the Sumner School hall on Monday and the Summerfield and Hone families were offered free car rentals for visiting family members.
Other companies offered the Hones free food for Monday's service and the Christchurch City Council donated two totara trees to the school.
A large oak tree in the central playground was this week designated for pupils and parents to place messages and flowers to remember Abi and Ella. Wright said these would be moved to the hall for Abi's funeral.
The school's parent-teacher association asked people to help out with baked goods for after the service and friends were baking and cooking meals for the families on a roster.
"Everybody responds to these sorts of events in different ways and mourns in different ways and for a lot of people just doing something and helping out makes them feel a heck of a lot better," Wright said.
Sumner School staff were in "a very vulnerable place", he said, and it was great to have the support of two Ministry of Education traumatic incident team members, who had been helping since Tuesday morning.
Head of sector enablement and support, Katrina Casey, said: "The death of a friend is never easy to comprehend at any age [and] children, in particular, need targeted support to help them come to terms with this type of loss."
It was "best practice" for support after a traumatic event to be provided by parents, teachers and close personal networks, she said.
"Face-to-face counselling of children immediately after an event is not recommended but may be appropriate in the coming weeks," Casey said.
St Margaret's College and Rangi Ruru Girls' School, where Ella and Abi were in year 8, had their own support systems.
A Sumner resident, who did not want to be named, said even strangers had been providing the two well-known families "layer upon layer" of support.
"The whole village is feeling this. It's as though there's a dark cloud [overhead]. Everybody is just walking up to each other in the street and giving them big hugs."
Dutch tourist Johannes Jacobus Appelman, who allegedly drove through a stop sign into the car Abi, Ella, Sally and Shane were in, appeared in the District Court this week.
Both families have, in statements to The Press, expressed gratitude for the community support and requested privacy.

Now, Laura is a happily married woman with a somewhat happy life. But that's all about to change, because now someone has come to kill her...and the stranger, her guardian angel, will expose himself for who he really is. Will Laura believe him? Can she trust him? Will he actually keep her safe this time?
Dean Koontz scores yet again. "Lightning" is a science fiction/suspense/romance thriller to top all others. No one writes like Koontz, no one can hope to write like Koontz, and "Lightning" is a perfect example of his craftsmanship. A rivetting novel that'll leave you glued to the pages and wanting more.
LIGHTNING starts off very well. Laura Shane, the protagonist of the book, is one of Koontz' most likable characters, and her remarkably tough childhood makes her very sympathetic. But she changes pretty dramatically in the second half of the book, and becomes more of an two-dimensional action hero.
The second part of this novel is basically one large chase scene with a lot of shootouts. It's reasonably entertaining, but I didn't feel it measured up to the first half of the book.
I also found much of the dialogue in this book to be remarkably unrealistic, especially from the children. There is an eight-year old child in this novel, for example, who talks like a miniature adult. Koontz injects a lot of humor in the dialogue, but much of it seems forced and unrealistic. I like humor in a novel, but I don't like characters that talk like stand-up comedians.
Again, I love Koontz, and strongly recommend books like WATCHERS, MR. MURDER, INTENSITY, ODD THOMAS, VELOCITY, and THE HUSBAND. This book is reasonably entertaining, but I wouldn't recommend it as your first Koontz novel.
Please keep in mind, though, that some people just adore this novel, so it just shows how tastes can differ. The great thing about Koontz is that not all of his books are the same, so you never know what to expect.
In the midst of it all is an intriguing love-story between a mysterious character--who's always at the right place at the right time!--and the lady who is so innocent of her fate. It is about believing in what can be done, and finding the will to change it, however impossible it may seem.
The book is a success in itself, and luminates many fields of science, too. It demonstrates Koontz's fabulous knack at writing great fiction, even if the book isn't one of his longer novels.
If you don't like this book because you listened to it on audio, wrong choice! You have to read the books. It is completely different in your mind. If you're not a regular Koontz fanatic, try this one on for size, and you'll be hooked.
The characters are excellent, the dialogue is fantastic, and the plot is astounding. It divulges the evils of Man, and what we're capable of.
And about the ending? Well, read it and find out!

Internet Explorer gets 59 bug fixes in Microsoft's June Patch Tuesday
Patches the overlooked zero-day flaw discovered in October
SOFTWARE BUG FACTORY Microsoft has issued a long list of security bulletins across its software line in its Patch Tuesday release for June, a record-breaking 59 of which patch the firm's web browser, Internet Explorer (IE).
The release comprises of two updates tagged with Microsoft's highest security rating of Critical, MS14-035 and MS14-036 and five rated important. The patches fix 66 vulnerabilities overall, including resolutions for flaws that apply to IE, Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Office and Microsoft Lync.
The company said that the most severe bugs patched by MS14-035 allows remote-code execution following a waterhole attack, where a user visits a malicious website designed to target a specific group of people.
"An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the current user," Microsoft said, adding that with administrative rights are worst affected.
It's worth noting that this patch is Microsoft's fix for the IE 8 zero-day bug that was overlooked by the Redmond firm when it was found by the Zero-Day Initiative (ZDI) seven months ago.
Earlier in May, ZDI issued a report saying that the IE 8 critical zero-day flaw, originally named CVE-2014-1770, had gone unfixed since last October, when it was brought to attention by Peter "corelanc0d3r" Van Eeckhoutte. When we asked Microsoft for a comment at the time, a spokesperson said the Redmond firm knew about the flaw but had "not detected" incidents affecting its customers.
The ZDI is an initiative that rewards security researchers for disclosing vulnerabilities. The bug was not previously reported because ZDI's policy is to disclose zero-day flaws that go unfixed for more than 180 days.
The vulnerability meant that in a web-based attack scenario, an attacker could host a specially-crafted website designed to exploit the vulnerability through IE, and then lure users to view it.
In its June Patch Tuesday, Microsoft also warned that the most severe vulnerability is critical for IE 7 to IE 11 running on Windows desktop computers and important for IE 6 to IE 11 running on Windows Server.
"The high priority item this month is Microsoft's Internet Explorer (IE) Bulletin MS14-035. This issue is not under attack, but it was disclosed two and a half weeks ago by vulnerability broker ZDI," said security firm Qualys CTO Wolfgang Kandek. "The update is rated critical because the vulnerabilities allow Remote Code Execution without user interaction."
"Given the volume of work that we do through web browsers, apply this update first," he advised.
The other critical update is MS14-036, which is a new version of the library GDI+. GDI+ parses graphics formats. Graphics parsing requires complex logic and has frequently been associated with attack vectors.
"It affects Windows, Office and the Lync IM client because they all bring their own copy. There are no known exploits at this time, as opposed to the last update to GDI+ (MS13-096), which addressed a zero-day," added Kandek. "You should apply this update as quickly as possible."
Another important security bulletin issued by Microsoft is a Microsoft Word update, named MS14-034, which addresses one vulnerability in the program's font handling (CVE-2014-2778).
Microsoft rates it only important because user interaction is required - one has to open a Microsoft Word file - but it allows the attacker remote code execution. µ

Atlantic Giant Pumpkin Seeds (120 days)
This is the pumpkin you see on the news around Halloween that takes a forklift to move it. Atlantic Giants easily average 400-500lbs and with a little tender loving care you could compete for the record which is 2009 lbs!
Joe Jutras took the worlds record in 2007 with a 1689 pound Atlantic Giant! The first giant pumpkin ever grown over 1600 pounds! To put that into perspective that is half as much as a 2009 Volkswagen beetle car!!!
Update: The Latest world record winner this year is Ron Wallace who grew a 2009 pound pumpkin. Ron broke the record in 2006 with his 1502 pound pumpkin. Now six years later he breaks the record again with the first ever one ton vegetable. (see picture)
You won't be doing any "punkin chunkin" with these babies. We know a guy that grows these locally to lease them out to wineries and events around Halloween. He has to move them with a big fork lift and transports each one on its own trailer, they are that big!
This is a GREAT project for the kids, most young gardeners and the young at heart. Wouldn't you get excited about winning the county fair with one of the giant babies!
In the book The Perfect Pumpkin Gail Damerow devotes an entire chapter on growing prize winning pumpkins. This book contains everything you need to know to grow a whopper!

Planting Tips for Heirloom Pumpkins:
Most pumpkins, even the smaller heirloom pumpkins like Small Sugar, need a lot of room to grow. Plant in hills to allow for the most space once the soil warms to 65-70°. Plant 3-6 heirloom seeds per hill and later thin them back to the strongest 3 seedlings.
Pumpkins, especially some of these heirloom pumpkins like the Atlantic Giant, can get really big with a lot of manure. If you want to grow a giant don't hold back.
Heirloom seeds are hardy but always take care with your garden seeds to give them the appropriate amount of moisture - not letting the vegetable seeds dry out prematurely or overwatering and possibly having them rot.
2 cups pumpkin (canned or puree)
3 eggs
1 1/4 cups half and half
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
9 inch pie crust round
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Place pie crust dough round into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim edges to extend about a 1/2-inch over the rim of the pan. Fold edges under, and press to seal. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes.
3. Cut a large circle of parchment; fit into the pie shell, extending above edges. Fill the shell with pie weights or dried beans.
4. Bake pie shell 15 minutes at 350 degrees F. Remove weights and parchment; bake 10 to 15 minutes more until golden brown. Cool completely on a wire rack.
5. Place pumpkin in a large bowl.
6. In a separate bowl, beat eggs well. Beat in half and half, vanilla extract, brown sugar, salt, and spices until thoroughly blended. Add in the pumpkin mixture, mix well.
7. Pour pumpkin mixture into pie shell and place in center oven rack . Bake for 30-40 minutes until the filling is firm.
8. Cool completely on wire racks and serve with whipped cream.
Note that not all pumpkins are good for roasting, some recommendations are Fairytale, Jarrahdale, Sugar and Pie Pumpkins.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut pumpkin in half with a large knife.
Scoop out the seeds and the stringy insides.
Cut pumpkin into 4 wedges.
Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper.
Roast about 45- 60 minutes or until flesh is easily pierced with a fork.
Let cool and scoop out inside. This can be stored about 5 days in the fridge or 3 months in the freezer.
4-5 carrots-diced
½ onion-diced
1 cup lentils
3 cups water
1 small roast pumpkin, pureed (see above)
salt and pepper to taste
