Clemson hired Brent Venables as new defensive coordinator just in time to meet with four major defensive recruits who made official football visits over the weekend. The Tigers hosted linebacker Cassanova McKinzy of Birmingham, Ala.; defensive end Jamichael Winston of Mobile, Ala.; defensive lineman DJ Reader of Greensboro, N.C., and defensive back Ronald Darby of Oxon Hill, Md.
McKinzy has been committed to Auburn but was tight- lipped about his decision Sunday following his visit. Clemson coach Dabo Swinney is to visit him Tuesday. Auburn's Gene Chizik will be in on Thursday. He told Scout.com Sunday night he's still holding to his Auburn commitment.
Winston has been an Arkansas commitment and will visit Michigan State this coming weekend before making his final decision.
Reader is down to the Tigers and Maryland. Clemson's Swinney is scheduled for his in-home visit Thursday. Maryland coaches also are expected to visit this week. Reader, who also will play baseball in college, plans to make his announcement on Signing Day.
Darby, who was once a Notre Dame commitment, also is strongly considering Auburn and Florida State. He might not announce until after Signing Day, when he'll be playing in the International Bowl in Austin, Texas.
In other recruiting news:
Perhaps the most intrigue on Sunday came from a prospect who stayed home. USC commitment RB Mike Davis said Sunday afternoon he would to take an official visit to Clemson, following through on a visit he had scheduled weeks ago. His brother, former Clemson star RB James Davis, had in fact been urging his brother to make the visit. But later in the afternoon, James Davis, on his Twitter account, posted that the visit was off at the request of Swinney. James Davis, who was at Clemson over the weekend, went on to write some less than flattering things about Swinney and his opinion about how the cancellation of the visit was handled.
WR Chris Brown of Hanahan had a brief meeting with USC recruiter Steve Spurrier Jr. last week at his school. He has been committed to Notre Dame and Spurrier Jr. wanted to check with him to see if he would be interested in a visit to the Gamecocks. He said Friday night he is solid with the Fighting Irish and will not take any more visits.
USC apparently missed on DB Chris Moody of McDonough, Ga. He committed to Vanderbilt over the weekend while on his official visit. He has been scheduled to visit USC this coming weekend.
USC is also going to miss out on Vandy commitment DE Josh Dawson of Tucker, Ga. Last week, he set up a visit with the Gamecocks for this weekend, but after visiting Vanderbilt over the weekend, he decided not to take any more visits. He will finalize a decision between Vandy and Georgia.
Gaffney WR Quinshad Davis made an official visit to UNC over the weekend. He also has visited Wake Forest and is scheduled to visit Tennessee this weekend. USC also has been on Davis' list, but no USC recruiter visited Davis last week, which could mean USC is cooling its interest. Vols head coach Derek Dooley made an in-home visit with Davis last week.
DE Kenderius Whitehead of Atlanta committed to N.C. State last week, stunning Clemson and Georgia and surprising USC. He was, for most of the recruiting campaign, thought to be a strong lean to Georgia. Then he visited Clemson and it appeared the Tigers were in strong shape. And last week, USC met with him and got him to schedule an official visit. But he apparently ended it all Wednesday night when he notified the Wolfpack and made his pledge.
USC has not thrown in the towel totally on DB Eli Shumate of Ramsey, N.J. He once favored the Gamecocks before changing to Notre Dame. He committed to the Irish this month. Last week, USC recruiter Jeep Hunter met briefly with Shumate at his school, but he has not indicated any shift away from the Irish at this point.
Junior news
USC offensive line coach Shawn Elliott was at Dillon on Friday focusing on OL Bryce King. The junior picked up offers last week from Tennessee and Virginia Tech, and has an offer from Clemson. King said Clemson offensive line coach Robbie Caldwell has taken over recruiting his area for former assistant Kevin Steele, and he talked on the phone with Caldwell last week. Tennessee also was by the school last week. He has no favorite. King's Dillon teammate OL DJ Park committed to USC last week.
Clemson and USC had recruiters at Goose Creek last week and one player on their check on list was LB Gerald Turner. He has offers from both and is also getting interest from Georgia Tech and Notre Dame. "I'm going to go to Clemson and USC for junior days and I might go to Georgia Tech," Turner said. He said he does not have a favorite and has no timetable for a decision.
WR Tramel Terry of Goose Creek visited Clemson two weekends ago and is going back this Saturday for junior day. He's also going to USC and Georgia for junior days. He said he has no favorites right now but noted Clemson gained ground. He said he has not planned a time frame for making a decision.
USC's first quarterback offer for the 2013 class went out last week to Christian Hackenberg of Fork Union, Va. USC joins Tennessee, Rutgers, Virginia, Alabama, Connecticut and Miami as his early offers.
LB Devaris Brunson of Lake City is a three-year starter. Clemson and USC are showing the most interest.
OL Logan Tuley-Tillman of Peoria, Ill., has offers from USC, FSU, Arkansas, Oklahoma State and Wisconsin, among others. He plans to visit USC the summer.
OL Joshua Outlaw of Lithonia, Ga., has offers including USC, Florida and USF, and Clemson is among others he is hearing from.
WR Juwan Dickey of Marietta, Ga., has offers from South Florida and Southern Miss, with interest coming from Clemson and others. He does not have a leader.

I have had Directv since 1996 and never had a phone line on my receivers (because I could not get a line to them in their old spot) except for now with my HD-DVR simply for Caller ID. I also have lots of friends and family with Directv receivers that have never been connected to phone lines. No issues at all.
Which just goes to show you how randomly DirecTV enforces their own rules. I had my receivers (not DTivos) turned off on a couple of different occasions because they weren't connected to phone lines. The DTivos never had that problem, though.

Hasan Jamali, Associated Press
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — During a sermon last week at Bahrain's Grand Mosque, the pro-government prayer leader offered sweeping praise for one of the Arab Spring's counter-revolutions: Gulf rulers bonding together against dissent with powerful Saudi Arabia as their main guardian.
The widening Saudi security stamp on the region is already taking shape in Bahrain, where more than a year of Shiite-led unrest shows no sign of easing and the Saudi influence over the embattled Sunni monarchy is on public display.
Portraits of the Saudi King Abdullah — some showing him praying — dot the airport in Bahrain's capital Manama. Bahrain's red-and-white flag and the green Saudi colors are arranged with crossed staffs. State media continually lauds the Saudi-led military force that rolled into Bahrain last year as reinforcements against the uprising by the kingdom's Shiite majority.
"Gulf union is a long-awaited dream," said Sheik Fareed al-Meftah at Friday prayers in Manama's main Sunni mosque, referring to proposals to coordinate defense affairs and other policies among the six members of the Gulf Cooperation Council stretching from Kuwait to Oman.
"The first step is here," al-Meftah added.
Abdullah and Bahrain's king, Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, have met to discuss "union" plans, which are expected to be outlined in May. For the moment, few details have emerged. Gulf leaders have stressed the need for greater intelligence and military cooperation. It's unclear, however, how deeply Bahrain and Saudi Arabia will attempt to merge in the first steps.
The increasingly blurred national lines in Bahrain are a possible sneak preview of the wider Arab Spring backlash in the oil-rich Gulf, where Saudi power seeks to safeguard the region's Sunni leadership and its strong opposition to possible attempts by Shiite giant Iran to expand influence. Meanwhile, Gulf rulers have selectively endorsed rebellions elsewhere, such as in Libya and Syria.
So far, the Gulf agenda has dovetailed with Western partners, which unleashed NATO-led airstrikes against Moammar Gadhafi's regime in Libya and are showing increasing support for possible aid to the rebels trying to topple Syrian President Bashar Assad — Iran's key Arab ally.
But Bahrain brings the potential for friction.
Washington has stood behind Bahrain's dynasty for strategic reasons as hosts of the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet, which is a pillar of the Pentagon's frontline forces against Iran. Yet rights groups and others have increased pressure in the U.S. and Europe to scale back support for Bahrain's rulers, who are struggling against a Shiite majority claiming it faces widespread discrimination and second-class status.
There are no signs of any significant Western reduction in support for Bahrain's dynasty, but the quandaries highlight how the tiny island kingdom has the potential to open rifts between the West and crucial ally Saudi Arabia.
"Bahrain can be looked at as something of a Saudi colony now in the sense that policies are merged," said Toby Jones, an expert on Bahraini affairs at Rutgers University. "But this is more than just a meeting of minds. It's motivated by the fears of the Arab Spring."
While there have been some rumblings of opposition — including protests in Shiite pockets in Saudi Arabia — nothing in the Gulf region has come close to Bahrain's upheaval. More than 45 people have died in the unrest, which includes near daily street clashes that include tear gas from security forces and firebombs from demonstrators. Some rights groups place the death toll above 60.
There have been no confirmed reports of Saudi soldiers directly involved in the crackdowns. But the troops in Bahrain have protected key sites, such as power plants, to free up local police. The military intervention also send a broad message that Saudi considers Bahrain a line that can't be crossed.

Lighting up Paris
This photo was the end to what I consider the perfect day in Paris. Start the day early at the Orsay (www.musee-orsay.fr). Spend the morning with the Impressionist and then take a break so you can cue for lunch promptly at 11:30 at the restaurant on the middle floor. You will beat the crowds and
the fixed price lunch can't be beat for both price and taste and the surrounding of the former train station's dining room is stunning.
The next shop should be time spent perusing the books and the atmosphere of Shakespeare and Company at 37 rue de la Bucherie. Afterwards strolling through the Latin Quarter offers some of the best people watching in town. You could spend all day there but make sure and allow time for a macaroon for Laduree at 21 rue Bonaparte. (There is more than one location but this one is in the Latin Quarter). The macaroons there really are best of the best and the one thing that my family never misses when in Paris!!!
After a full day of exploration and good food head over to see the Eiffel Tower. It's so crowded there during the day and to really appreciate it's beauty it needs to be viewed lit up at night. The extra lights in this photo were happenstance but I think illuminate the tower in a way that highlights its beauty.

The New Orleans Saints may have come out on top of the initial arbitrator ruling that resulted in Jimmy Graham being dubbed a tight end -- not a wide receiver -- for purposes of the franchise tag. However, they reportedly didn't care for the reasoning behind the decision, which basically stated that a tight end is a tight end if he lines up most of the time within four yards of the offensive tackle.
Saints worried about Graham appeal?

Apomicts that produce unreduced parthenogenetic eggs are generally polyploid and occur in at least 33 of 460 families of angiosperms. Embryo sacs of these apomicts form precociously from ameiotic megaspore mother cells (diplospory) or adjacent somatic cells (apospory). Polysporic species (bisporic and tetrasporic) are sexual and occur in at least 88 families. Their embryo sacs also form precociously, but only non-critical portions of meiosis are affected. It is hypothesized that (i) the partial to complete replacement of meiosis by embryo sac formation in apomictic and polysporic species results from asynchronously-expressed duplicate genes that control female development, (ii) duplicate genes result from polyploidy or paleopolyploidy (diploidized polyploidy with chromatin from multiple genomes), (iii) apomixis results from competition between nearly complete sets of asynchronously-expressed duplicate genes, and (iv) polyspory and polyembryony result from competition between incomplete sets of asynchronously-expressed duplicate genes. Phylogenetic and genomic studies were conducted to evaluate this hypothesis. Apomictic, polysporic, and polyembryonic species tended to occur together in cosmopolitan families in which temporal variation in female development is expected, apomicts were generally polyploid with few chromosomes per genome (X = 9.6pL0.4 SE), and polysporic and polyembryonic species were paleopolyploid with many chromosomes per genome (x= 15.7pL0.6 and 13.2pL0.4, respectively). These findings support the proposed duplicate-gene asynchrony hypothesis and further suggest asexual reproduction in apomicts preserves primary genomes, sexual reproduction in polysporic and polyembryonic polyploids accelerates paleopolyploidization, and pa-leopolyploidization may sometimes eliminate gene duplications required for apomixis while retaining duplications required for polyspory or polyembryony. Hence, apomixis, with its long-term reproductive stability, may occasionally serve as an evolutionary springboard in the evolution of normal and developmentally-novel paleopolyploid sexual species and genera.

text: I just thought I'd share how my first commute went this morning. First I brought the bike from home to school (different cities). Before I leave home I put air in the tires because the bike has not been ridden in quite a while. So that night I take it for a spin and rides good. I get up early this morning to go lift and I notice my back tire is low on air. I think no big deal there is air fill station on the way to the gym. So I fill up my tire but I guess I put way to much in because as soon as I get across the street the tire is flat. So I end up walking my bike for about a mile. It was a pretty good first day. This afternoon I went and got new tubes and replaced them both. Tomorrow should be better. Sorry for rambling.

Many years ago, I was at a New York Philharmonic concert with my husband. Isaac Stern was performing, and given his age, I was thrilled to be in the audience. I had a similar reaction each time I watched Leonard Bernstein conduct in his later years. I thought each performance might be his last. In the middle of the second movement of the first piece, Stern, seated next to the conductor, just stopped playing. Literally. A hush fell over the auditorium. The orchestra's sound petered out – instrument by instrument. The audience had that "what just happened?" look.

Last week, Intellectual Affairs gave the recent cable TV miniseries "Sex: The Revolution" a nod of recognition, however qualified, for its possible educational value. The idea that sex has a history is not, as such, self-evident. The series covers the changes in attitudes and norms between roughly 1950 and 1990 through interviews and archival footage. Most of this flies past at a breakneck speed, alas. The past becomes a hostage of the audience's presumably diminished attention span.

Artist Grants: ARTIST COMMUNITIES
The National Endowment for the Arts is committed to providing assistance to artist communities for projects that encourage and nurture the development of individual artists and foster and inspire their creative processes. For the Arts Endowment's purposes, an artist community is defined as an organization, whether focused on a single discipline or multidisciplinary, whose primary mission is to provide artist residencies.
Support is available for artist communities that:
Provide space, time, and resources to artists for incubation, thought, or creativity in a retreat setting in an urban or rural location.
Foster and support the creative process of art making by providing studio facilities and assistance with living accommodations to enable artists to live and work concurrently.
Utilize a competitive application process to recruit and select participants, and rotate a wide range of artists in order to encourage the highest standards of creativity.
Funding Opportunities in Artist Communities

No one wants to remember their worst nightmare.
No one wants to relive the pain.
No one wants to go back to a time without joy.
No one may want to, but the memories remain.
There was a time when I trusted people.
There was a time when I let others inside.
There was a time when every bruise was accidental.
There was a time, but that time is long past.
Maybe some day I'll have the will to live.
Maybe some day I'll learn to love again.
Maybe some day my scars will heal.
Maybe some day, but today is not that day.

Excellent !
This is epic. Thank you.
LOL.. fab, just fab
Hahah great concept

this is awesome, and i'm peed off. Why? Because i went to london mcm expo last weekend and saw this picture on canvas and bought it, turns out that guy hasn't had any of the artists permission even though he claims he has, so i pulled the thing off my wall just now and threw it under my bed in disgust. You didn't give him permission did you? I noticed the link on the bottom of the image here, and on canvas that has been cut off. I'M SO GOD DAMN ANGRY THAT SOMEONE COULD DO THAT!
Don't be pissed over that! These things happen all the time. In fact, I'm grateful you found this entertaining enough to spend money on, and I don't care who earned that money. So please hang it back on the wall and enjoy it Thank you very much for your honesty. The rest doesn't matter
This is EPIC
LOL! I love this!
wow great!!
Now this is just silly, what kind of stormtrooper doesn't bring an umbrella when it's clearly raining? lol

Country Music Hall of Famer Garth Brooks recently released his newest song, "The Call", a duet with country music singer and songwriter Trisha Yearwood. Brooks bares his soul once again for fans, a trait that has made him an award-winning country icon.
But the Brooks and Yearwood marriage is as strong as ever reported Classicalite.com on December 27. But that was not always the case, as Brooks opens up about the duet, which is included in his recently released "Blame It All On My Roots" boxed set. Despite a few recent rumors that the couple are headed for a split, Garth Brooks reassures fans, simply explaining that "The Call" was written about a rough patch the couple went through between 2002 and 2003.
"It's about that point in a relationship when you make the decision whether what you have is worth fighting for, or is it just easier to call it 'friends' and live life from there. Everybody goes through this; Miss Yearwood and I were in the middle of it in 2002-03."
Garth Brooks reveals that he and Trisha Yearwood made an effort to record "The Call" with a full band, but it just did not seem right. Instead the couple chose to record the song as performed during Brooks stint at the Wynn.
"We tried cutting this song with a full band but kept going back to the Wynn performance where it's just like two people talking to each other."
Brooks announced early in December that he would begin touring again after almost a decade. The tour will span three years beginning in 2014.

Linux Kernel: Improved Webcam Support Thanks to GSPCA
The kernel developers plan to integrate the GSPCA driver with kernel 2.6.27 to add support for a large number of webcams.
Following the introduction of the driver – this is on the roadmap for kernel 2.6.27 at the latest - the kernel should support most popular webcams without forcing users to compile addition kernel modules.
The integration of the UVC driver with the recently released in 2.6.26 kernel version significantly increased the number of webcams supported by the kernel. The GSPCA drivers now extend support to USB webcams, which include many internal webcams in notebooks.
The GSPCA drivers were developed by Michel Xhaard, a French doctor, who has programmed drivers for hundreds of USB webcams in a solo effort launched back in 2003. Xhaard gave a very readable interview to the British online magazine Inquirer in April last year, revealing facts about his hobby.
The inclusion of the drivers in the kernel offers users a number of advantages by removing the need for users to download drivers from the author's website and to build the executables. This procedure can be annoying when distribution updates install a new kernel forcing the user to manually build the matching webcam module to reinstate support. Although there are approaches to automating this process (such as KMP in Opensuse), kernel integration is a far more elegant.

Comments about Neutrogena Pure and Free Baby Faces SPF 45+, 2.5 oz:
It's good for swimming and sweating. I use it on my big kids and myself because we are sensitive. No breakouts with this like most sunscreens cause. I'm giving it 4 stars because it leaves your face a little white and doesn't blend 100% BUT it protects you.
Best Uses
Comments about Neutrogena Pure and Free Baby Faces SPF 45+, 2.5 oz:
I have very fair, sensitive skin that burns easily. My grandson uses this and now so do I. It is the most effective sunscreen that I've been able to find in the last 10 years. I have tried them all! It does go on fairly white and requires a bit of rubbing in. I don't recommend it for men with a heavy beard or large pores because of this, but it's not as thick and unwieldy as other barrier sunscreens. It doesn't sting the eyes, so it can go on the eyelids. I like to use it under my foundation. Great for Babies, Great for Moms, Great for Grandmas!

Abstract: In this work, the presence of biogenic amines (BAs) was correlated with the type of wine grape culture (traditional or organic) and their concentration in the different stages of winemaking (must, alcoholic fermentation [AF] and malolactic fermentation [MLF]). The formation of BA occurred mainly during MLF in which the percentages for putrescine, cadaverine, phenylethylamine, histamine, and tyramine were 100%, 70%, 13%, 61%, and 44% for the wines produced with traditional grapes and 100%, 94%, 25%, 88%, and 13% for the wines produced with organic grapes, respectively. In general, these latter wines exhibited a lower concentration of total amines. The principal component analysis and partial least-square discriminate analysis indicated that the generation of BA has a certain behavioral pattern in the wines analyzed, which is associated with the different stages of wine production and with the type of culture (traditional or organic) used in the wine grapes.
Practical Application: Chemometrics tools can be useful as a method of characterization and classification in a global overview of the process variables involved in the development of toxic chemicals in foods, such as the production of BA in wine.

Local Trooper Named Employee of the Year
NORFOLK - A member of the Nebraska State Patrol Troop B area was recognized recently as the sworn officer of the year. Troop B Captain Paul Hattan says Bill Price, a 24-year veteran of the state patrol who lives in O'Neill, was honored last week at a ceremony in the Rotunda of the Nebraska State Capitol. Price serves as the Troop B Community Service Officer and has a direct impact on the safety of Nebraska citizens. Hattan says that, by developing and implementing programs aimed at young adults, Price works tirelessly to raise awareness and save lives by reducing the potential for serious injury and fatality crashes. Trooper Price also coordinated a display of Nebraska State Patrol history at the Elkhorn Valley Museum in Norfolk. He initiated the program "Ask A Trooper" on WJAG and was a regular guest on the show. His voice can also be heard on many public service announcements on radio stations throughout the Troop B area.

First Ram is a Big one, need some help!
I am brand new to the Forum and to the Dodge Ram. I recently bought a 2002 Dodge Ram Quad Cab. It is sitting on 37x13.50 Pro comp xtreme A/T tires on 20" moto metals. The lift is a combo of a 6 inch Fabtech supension lift and a 3 inch body lift. It has about 160K on the 4.7L motor with a list of extras.
Here is where I need some help, I don't know if the truck was re-geared or if the driveshaft was upgraded. The ad said "I think it has an aftermarket driveshaft (this thing is huge for a half ton)" Sounds like the owner bought it already lifted. Can the truck last this long (160K) with the stock gears and driveshaft? Any reccomendations as to what gears and drive shaft to go with if it turns out they are in fact stock? Normally I check out a vehicle before I buy it but for one, I am in Iraq and I didn't really have anyone I felt could help me in the state I got it in. Plus I didn't want to sit on the deal I was getting. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance -JDTDBD

Have A Jolly Good Day
This is sweet Elaine from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps -- isn't she adorable? Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is sponsoring this month's Sketch For You To Try. If you haven't already played along this month, check out the sketch on my right-hand sidebar and HERE on Jen's blog.
I had a blast coloring Elaine with my Copics and giving her a cozy paper home out of the gorgeous Authentique "Splendid" papers. The lovely crinkled and dyed seam binding is from the MemrieMare etsy shop.
At the risk of repeating myself ... have a jolly good day!

As one who was working in the then-soon-to-be panacea of Data Warehousing 15-18 years ago, I am very dubious that Big Data will live up to the hype. Computing power must be 1000x what it was and storage is in the gazillion bytes, maybe it's time that real-time decision making will be enabled for breakthrough business practices. We'll see.

Oklahoma caged toddler case arraignment postponed
TULSA (AP) — Arraignment for a Tulsa man charged with locking his toddler daughter in a metal cage has been postponed.
Monday's scheduled arraignment for the man in Tulsa County District Court on felony charges of child neglect was reset for April 1.
The Associated Press is not naming the father to protect the child's identity. He has pleaded not guilty.
Authorities say they found the child locked in an animal crate in November after a neighbor saw the man's 3-year-old daughter naked outside the home and got no response when he knocked on the door. Police say a third child was found unsupervised inside the home and the man was found unresponsive.
The father later told police he had taken a painkiller a muscle relaxer, an anti-seizure medication and drank a beer.

Comments made today during today's call may contain statements regarding the company's expectations about its future financial performance, including forecasts and statements concerning business trends and profitability that are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
The company's actual results in the future may differ possibly materially from those forecast in this call due to a number of risks and uncertainties. Certain of these risks and uncertainties in addition to other risks are more fully described in the company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of today's conference and the company undertakes no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
With that, I would now like to turn the call over to Robert Deuster. Robert?
Robert Deuster
Thank you. And welcome to today's third quarter conference call. I will spend a few minutes discussing our business activity during the quarter, some of them are noteworthy events that occurred, and then some commentary on the outlook for the balance of the year. Then I will turn it over to Joe to discuss our financial results in more detail.
I am very pleased to report to you that our service revenue for the third quarter was a company record. While the third quarter is normally our seasonally highest quarter, the $14.5 million in service revenue report, it was a full $1.5 million better than the previous high mark.
A number of factors contributed to this excellent result. Notwithstanding, a very strong coin market, as for the holiday season and the start of the new coin year, but also we experienced growth during the quarter in all of our PCGS businesses.
In particular, we are seeing a very strong consumer preference for grading coins at shows and expos. We had 77% more grading service revenue at our show events in the third quarter as well as sold-out attendance at each of our members-only Las Vegas show since last fall.
Significantly, the grading activity in both gold and silver coins has improved with the start of the new mint year. Calendar year-to-date sales from the U.S. mint are on a record pace. Gold Eagle sales are a 118% above last year's pace and Silver Eagle sales are full 20% above the record 2011 pace.
As of today, there still is not enough coin production capacity to fill customer demand for Silver Eagle and U.S. mint is on a rationing program. If this customer demand profile continues, it is likely that a new U.S. mint sales record level could be reached by the end of this calendar year.
As you may recall, I mentioned on our last call, that bulk coin submissions too have started to pickup at the end of our second quarter. That pace has continued throughout the third quarter. Output from many of the world's mints is also strong, so it's turning out to be a good year for the bullion coin market.
All of this is subject to potential demand change as is frequently experienced in the coin market. But we will watch it over the next several months to see what effect it may have on our grading volume for the balance of the year.
The rare coin market in the United States is also very strong as many high-value PCGS graded coins were sold at auction. During the quarter, we saw the sale of the most valuable U.S. coin, a 1794 Flowing Hair Silver Dollar that went for $10.1 million, and a 1792 Martha Washington half dime sold for $1.4 million. Last month, a very rare 1913 Liberty Head Nickel sold at auction for $3.2 million, after being lost and off the market from more than 40 years.
Looking outside of the U.S., the global numismatic activity and interest is high as well. In particular, the climate for bullion and coin collecting in China is very strong, but the government promoting the purchase of gold coin issue and the output of China state run-mints' increasing annually.
The numismatic market in vintage Chinese coins rivals the U.S. and European market. So addressing it directly offers an attractive market expansion to our growth strategy going forward. We recently announced the formation and funding of a wholly-owned business unit in Mainland, China, to service this budding market and it will be based in Shanghai. I will cover this subject in a little more detail later in my remarks.
Changing gears somewhat, we continue to see a steady and increasing volume of submissions for grading sports cards and autograph collectables too. Our PSA card grading business is tracking 12% ahead of last year's pace. And the DNA autograph grading service revenue again exceeded $1 million during the quarter.

Yusuf wants the loan to buy bicycle spare parts so that he can meet the demand of his clients. Many people there use bicycles as their major means of transport. He will get income to meet the family needs. He has a challenge with the transport and sometimes the delay in supply because of frequent orders due to limited capital.
Yusuf's future prospects when he gets this loan are to increase his income and help those who drop out of the school with the mechanical skills since he is a skilled person in mechanics.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Be My Slave
May 14,2013
Herald Tribune:
Designer Aamna Aqeel's latest shoot titled "Be My Slave" falls squarely into this category. Obviously designed to shock, it shows a model being pandered to by a dark-skinned child slave. The images are repulsive with racist and colonialist overtones. The fact that the slave in the advertisements is a child, makes the images that much more inexcusable.
Aqeel has barely been designing for two years. She won some critical acclaim at the fifth edition of Fashion Pakistan Week held recently in Karachi, but she remains very much an emerging designer with a lot to prove. It seems that she's decided, by hook or by crook, it's time to get noticed.
When contacted, Aqeel vehemently denied any racist angle to the shoot at all. According to her, the choice of a dark-skinned Baloch child was purely incidental. "He works in a garage and wanted some work," she said. Obviously the parents of usual child models wouldn't have agreed to the shoot. The pampered little cuties who advertise soap, toothpaste and biscuits on TV may not have looked right for the part but even if they had, no one would have let their child play such a degrading role.
Aqeel's argument is that she wanted to spark a debate on child labour. She says she is involved with a children's charity and wanted to highlight how 'society madams' employ child labour in their homes. She is educating and supporting the child used in the shoot — it seems the least she can do after exploiting him in this fashion.

Dwelling on one feature of any new electronic device can be dangerous, but you have to admit that waterproof devices like the Rugby Smart make sense – and we are seeing more items, including tablets, hit the market.
Check out my Monday consumer column in the Sun Sentinel Business section for a peek at some gadgets worthy of a South Florida storm kit.
The Rugby Smart is built tough and the company says it meets U.S. military specs to be considered dust, humidity, rain and shock-proof. That means is should survive being dropped in shallow beach surf or a pool of water of up to 3 feet for 30 minutes. Oh, and it features a 3.7-inch Super AMOLED screen, 4MB of internal memory, a 5-megapixel camera and runs Android Gingerbread.
The Samsung Rugby Smart will be available at AT&T stores across Broward, Palm Beach and Miami-Dade counties on March 4 for $99.99 with a two-year contract.
