Amanda Bynes Tweets Apology to Drake, Still Wants Them to Be Friends
You're hot, then you're cold
You're yes, then you're no
you're in, then you're out
you're up, then you're down
We're not just quoting Katy Perry — we're razzing Amanda Bynes about her tumultuous (imaginary) relationship with rapper Drake.
First she crushes on him, tweeting in March — to our unmitigated horror and disgust — that she wants him to "murder her vagina." (Seriously — who says that?) Then she calls the guy ugly. Now she's taking it all back.
I'm sorry about the tweets I said about @drake I didn't mean what I said. I hope to become friends with him instead of smashing him!— Amanda Bynes (@AmandaBynes) June 14, 2013
Why the flip-flopping opinion? Oh, it must be because "she's good, and she's healthy. She's the same beautiful, funny, artistic, thoughtful person that she's always been." That was what the other Drake in her life, former co-star Drake Bell, said in an interview last week.

Best Premium Compact Cameras 2016
Premium compact cameras are designed for optimum picture quality in a small package. To get the best picture quality possible they use larger sensors than you find in most compact cameras. The larger the sensor the better the picture quality, but unfortunately the large sensor limits the potential zoom range. So the trade-off is better image quality and better low light performance in exchange for less zoom flexibility. So the cameras in this category will have shorter than average zoom range capability.
If you want maximum zoom range in a pocket sized camera, the size of the sensor needs to be minimized which in turn compromises image quality a bit. If this is a trade-off that sounds good to you, see the Best Compact Superzoom Cameras in the list below. The picture quality on those cameras can be quite good, just not quite as stellar as you can get from the Premium Compact Cameras listed here.

Convergence of Performance Management and Risk Management - Part 2
Erwin Boeren 270002C43V firstname.lastname@example.com | | Tags:  grc risk reporting ibm compliance fsr cognos solvency regulatory ii basel openpages | 0 Comments | 3,886 Visits
Convergence of Performance Management and Risk Management - Part 2
the increase of the Governance, Risk & Compliance maturity level at many of
my clients I see that clients start to realize the benefits of the integration
of GRC activities in their Performance Management cycle. Therefore a follow up
on my previous article around Risk Management and the convergence with
Performance Management.
Let me share some insights on Risk & Performance Management initiatives that keep clients busy around Europe. The following 4 items came up in the last 3 months.
1. Cost control and process performance improvement give us the opportunity to embed controls in our process. Lessons learned from Six Sigma and Lean can give us guidance here.
2. How do I manage organizational and regulatory change and monitor the impact on business processes, policies and my risk and control framework?
3. Trending topic is emerging risks, am I able to identity risks that are coming to me over time?
4. Integrated Financial and Risk reporting, an excellent example of 'Where Performance Management meets Risk Management'.
Cost control and Process improvements
Implementing and testing controls has become a huge cost for many organizations. That is why some of my clients are now looking for a way to reduce cost by embedding controls in their existing business processes. This goes hand in hand with the global initiative on cost reduction. While optimizing or even re designing core business processes internal controls are being embedded in the process. What I see is that the organizations that involve process owners and process contributors are most successful. This is an initiative that we have seen before in Lean Six Sigma projects. The only way to optimize processes and to reduce waste is to involve the process owners. Instead of increasing regulatory pressure we should seek a solution in this area in my opinion. Business cases around this have proven to be very successful and savings up to millions of Euros per year have been achieved.
Regulatory change
Regulatory changes are a huge concern of many risk, compliance, legal and audit professionals. How can we monitor these changes and how can we understand the impact on our organization? Taking this together with the fact that policy management is changing from a 'must do' once a year to a continuous process tells us that an integrated approach to Governance, Risk & Compliance is necessary to drive performance. I come across clients that have a monthly Performance Report that shows how they derived business objectives from their policies and how they are performing on a compliance level to these objectives. What risks did they identify in this process and how will they respond to these risks? Organizations realize that they need to understand the correlation between processes, policies, regulations, business objectives, risks and controls and how they might impact each other. An integrated GRC view is the only way to face this challenge.
Emerging Risk Modelling
One of the trending topics among customers is Emerging Risks. Can we model risks that we see coming and can we follow up on risks that are getting closer or fading away? Analytical Risk modeling is an answer to this question. This also let you perform risk forecasting with different scenarios. Interesting question is how the increase of a risk exposure in an operating entity will impact my group level exposure? Risk Analytics, derived from the Performance Management area can help us answer these questions. A financial performance management cycle contains the exact same characteristics.
Integrated Financial and Risk performance reporting
Financial and Risk reporting are standard items in today's Annual Reports, Tax statements, Management reports and Regulatory reports. The big question is how do I keep all of this information organized in such a way that I understand the source of the information, the transformation it has gone through, the owner of the information and most important when information changes at the last moment that all information output contains the latest version? No bigger reputational risk than sending out inconsistent information to stakeholders. Some organizations saw their share price drop with 25% due to inconsistent external reporting. One of my clients has implemented a solution that orchestrates all of these information sources with workflow capabilities and even XBRL output. From a risk perspective this is a great mitigation of your reputational risk and an excellent example of 'Where Performance Management meets Risk Management'.

Convergence of Risk Management and Performance Mangement

Last year IBM acquired OpenPages as a strategic move into the area of Governance, Risk and Compliance. The lasest announcement to acquire Algorithmics (quantitative risk management) shows the continuous commitment of IBM in the GRC market. GRC software will integrate into the Business Analytics Software group, the area where the former acquisitions like Cognos, SPSS and Clarity systems already resides.
Now that Risk Management is evolving, more and more organizations are starting an enterprise approach to risk management. And this is where I see the need for Risk and Performance Management convergence.
In past Risk Management implementations I see that a major portion of time and budget was spent on Risk Reporting and Dashboarding. Especially the need for self service reporting, where users can ad hoc create their own risk reports, is growing. We do not want to wait in the queue waiting for our report to be created. 2 days later you missed the opportunity to respond and the loss is there.
With this self service capability the question automatically pops up 'can I trust my data'. And now we are back in the area of data governance. This is exactly where the area of Performance Management is today.
Apart from these reporting and dashboarding capabilities Enterprise Risk Management means alignment of risks and controls to the strategic initiatives of the organization. What will prevent me from reaching my business goals? Isn't this defined as a risk? And how will we prevent this from happening? Wasn't that defined as a control?
Even more interesting are questions like, 'What if I was able to perform risk scenario planning?', 'What if I could predict risks from happening?' or 'What is the correlation between the risks that have materialized?'.
And there is the proof that Risk Management and Performance Management have lots in common and should be integrated. Lets call it Business Analytics.

Governance. Risk and compliance on the iPad

With Cognos 10.1.1 released you must have noticed the ability of having your reports and dashboards on mobile devices like iPad and iPhone.
With these mobile capabilities CROs (Chief Risk Officers) will now have the ability to measure risk from their mobile devices. For volatile risk areas like Market and Credit Risk this can make a huge difference.
IBM developed a risk monitoring system for CROs where one single version of the truth is provided of different risk areas like Credit Risk, Market Risk, Counterparty Credit Risk, Liquidity Risk, Basel II, Solvency II and Operational Risk. Not only does a CRO have the ability to monitor all these risk areas but he can also monitor the correlation between those risk areas and he is able to respond immediately to changes. Responses can immediately be formulated in the integrated social media platform.
One version of the truth and guaranteed quality of your data is simple to say but how do you govern this? This is where IBMs investment in data models starts to pay off. Since decades IBM develops and maintains data models for financial services including out of the box technical and business definitions. This enables organizations to come to one definition of risk over the entire organization. Taking definitions centrally will add value in the process of taking down the silod approach we spoke about in earlier articles. It will also help you in the accountability process of the business. Finally it is the business that should own the business definitions.
As discussed in our previous published blog (The convergence of GRC and Performance Management) Business Analytics capabilities like risk forecasting, risk adjusted profitability calculations, scenario planning and predictive risk analysis are part of this risk monitoring system called FIRM (Finance Integrated Risk Management).
The new regulation for Insurance companies, Solvency II requires organizations to plan their risk assessments and capital requirements 2 to 5 years ahead and to reflect impact on financial positions when a risk materializes. All this means that an integrated approach to risk management is a must. In next blogs we will go deeper into the Solvency II regulation.
GRC Maturity: From Disorganized to Integrated Risk and Performance - Part I
Liz Andrews 2700041WEU firstname.lastname@example.com | | Tags:  grc risk openpages | 0 Comments | 1,902 Visits
This is the first in a series of four blog posts where we will present risk and compliance speaker and thought leader, Michael Rasmussen's, GRC maturity model. For more insightful information on GRC and to exchange ideas with risk and finance colleagues, come see us in Orlando at Vision 2012.
Success in today's dynamic business environment requires organizations to integrate, build and support business processes with an enterprise view of governance, risk management and compliance (GRC). Without an integrated view of risk and compliance, the scattered and nonintegrated approaches of the past fail and expose the business to unanticipated risk.
In a mature GRC program, the organization has an integrated process, information and technology architecture that provides visibility across risk and compliance domains. It offers an integrated approach for business managers and executives to leverage GRC data for risk-aware decision-making and resource allocation.
Inevitable Failure: Managing GRC in Silos
The multifaceted risk environment
Risk to the business is like the hydra in mythology — organizations combat risk, only to find more risk springing up to threaten them. Executives are constantly reacting to risk appearing around them and fail to actively manage and understand the interrelationship of risk across the enterprise.
The dynamic and global nature of business is particularly challenging to risk management. As organizations expand operations and business relationships (e.g., vendors, supply chain, outsourcers, service providers, consultants and staffing) their risk profile grows exponentially. Organizations need to stay on top of their game by monitoring risk to their business internally (e.g., strategy, processes and internal controls) and externally (e.g., competitive, economic, political, legal and geographic environments) to stay competitive in today's market. What may seem an insignificant risk in one area can have profound impact on others.
Organizations are increasingly aware of the critical need to link risk management and corporate performance management. To manage corporate performance, the organizations must understand risk and make risk-informed business decisions.
In the area of regulatory risk, organizations face an expanding regulatory environment with rapidly increasing requirements that burden the business. Organizations face expanding regulations, increased fines and sanctions, and aggressive regulators and prosecutors around the world. Reputation and brand protection is also a significant compliance and risk management issue in a global environment.
Isolated risk and compliance initiatives introduce greater risk
Managing GRC activities in disconnected silos leads the organization to inevitable failure. Reactive, document-centric and manual processes for GRC fail to actively manage risk in the context of business strategy and performance, and leave the organization blind to intricate relationships of risk across the business. Siloed GRC initiatives never see the big picture and fail to put GRC in the context of business strategy, objectives and performance, resulting in complexity, redundancy and failure. The organization is not thinking about how GRC processes and controls can be designed to meet a range of risk and compliance needs. An ad hoc approach to GRC results in poor visibility across the organization and its control environment, because there is no framework or architecture for managing risk and compliance as an integrated part of business. When the organization approaches risk in scattered silos that do not collaborate with each other, there is no possibility to be intelligent about risk and understand its impact on the organization.
A nonintegrated approach to GRC impacts business performance and how it is managed and executed, resulting in:
The pain organizations have expressed
Siloed GRC processes, though effective in their own silos, are ineffective at an aggregate level, as the organization does not have a complete view of GRC in the context of the business. Corporate Integrity finds organizations that lack a collaborative, integrated and enterprise approach to GRC have:

This is the second in a series of four blog posts where we present risk and compliance speaker and thought leader, Michael Rasmussen's, GRC maturity model. For more insightful information on GRC and to exchange ideas with risk and finance colleagues, come see us in Orlando at Vision 2012.
GRC Maturity — Measuring a New Paradigm for Risk and Compliance
Lacking an integrated view of GRC results in business processes, partners, employees and systems that behave like leaves blowing in the wind. Modern business requires a new paradigm for tackling risk and compliance issues across the enterprise. No longer can organizations afford to focus on single risk and compliance issues as unrelated projects; nor can they allow software Band-Aids that are not integrated with the business to masquerade as GRC. A targeted strategy addressing GRC through common processes, information and technology gets to the root of the problem.
With changing and diverse risks bearing down on the organization, there is a clear need to tackle the problem at its root and develop a mature approach to GRC. Instead of treating each risk and compliance issue as an individual problem, organizations need to define a common process, information and technology architecture to manage GRC across the range of issues.
To address these issues, leading organizations have adopted a common framework, information architecture and shared processes to effectively manage risk and compliance, enable risk-aware decision-making, increase efficiencies, and be agile in response to the needs of a dynamic business environment.
The questions organizations must ask:
A well-defined GRC environment will not only do risk assessment and modeling, but will also deliver definition, communication and training on risk-taking and accountability. The organization must map the interrelationship of risks to controls, policies, enterprise assets (e.g., business process, employees, relationships, physical assets and logical assets), and incidents to business strategy, objectives and corporate performance.
Mature GRC delivers better business outcomes because of stronger integrated information, which will:
Architect integrated GRC systems and processes
A properly defined GRC architecture is built upon common process, information and technology components that are adaptive to a dynamic business environment and integrate with critical enterprise applications. No longer is risk and compliance about an annual audit; it now involves continuous monitoring in an ever-changing environment. GRC has to be sustainable as an ongoing and integrated part of business processes. A successful and mature GRC strategy has a symbiotic influence on the variety of business stakeholder roles and their common requirements.
Organizations need to be intelligent about what processes and technologies they deploy. The goal is to make an effective decision once, and comply with many regulations, manage a range of risks and maximize value from the convergence of technology, people and process. A sustainable approach to GRC results in an organization looking to the future and mitigating risk in the course of business, as opposed to putting out fires by reacting to risk and control issues as they arise.
Mature GRC enables the organization to understand performance in the context of risk and compliance. It achieves the definition of GRC, which is "a capability that enables an organization to reliably achieve objectives [GOVERNANCE] while addressing uncertainty [RISK MANAGEMENT] and acting with integrity [COMPLIANCE]." Effective and mature GRC delivers:

This is the third in a series of four blog posts where we will present risk and compliance speaker and thought leader, Michael Rasmussen's, GRC maturity model. For more insightful information on GRC and to exchange ideas with risk and finance colleagues, come see us in Orlando at Vision 2012.
Five Stages of GRC Maturity
Mature GRC is a seamless part of governance and operations. It requires the organization to take a top-down view of risk, led by the executives and the board, and made part of the fabric of business, not an unattached layer of oversight. It also involves bottom-up participation where business functions at all levels identify and monitor uncertainty and the impact of risk.
Corporate Integrity has developed the GRC Maturity Model to articulate an organization's maturity in GRC processes.
1: Ad Hoc/Unaware — Department-Level Maturity
Characteristics of this GRC stage are:
Organizations in the Ad Hoc/Unaware GRC stage answer many of the following questions affirmatively:

Getting to the Head of the Class: Advancing Your Organizations GRC Maturity
Organizations with GRC processes siloed within departments operate at the Unaware, Fragmented, or Integrated stage. At these stages GRC may be effective within a silo, but lacks an enterprise perspective of risk and compliance and gains no efficiencies from shared processes. Different departments may be at different levels of maturity.
The Aligned and Optimized maturity levels represent maturity of organizations with an enterprise GRC strategy, focused on developing a common GRC process, information and technology architecture. These organizations report process effi
Considerations for Moving From Fragmented to Integrated
Departments at the Fragmented stage have siloed approaches to risk and compliance at the department level. This means no integration or sharing of risk and compliance information, processes or technology.
To move from Fragmented to Integrated requires the department reduce manual data integration and improve overall visibility into risk exposure. Organizations should consider defining GRC process and information architecture at the department level and implement technology to manage multiple risk and compliance initiatives cohesively.
Considerations for Moving From Integrated to Aligned
Departments at the Integrated maturity stage are in a good place to lead the organization in an integrated GRC strategy to the Aligned stage. They have a strategic approach to GRC at the department level, supported by mature GRC processes that can be extended to other departments. These organizations have a shared-services approach to GRC to deliver common processes and integrated information.
To move from the Integrated to the Aligned stage requires a common risk catalog that shows the relationship of risks across the business and risk ownership. The purpose is to enable the business to make risk-informed decisions. Orga
Considerations for Moving From Aligned to Optimized
To difference between the Aligned to Optimized stage is primarily one of context. At the Aligned stage the orga
Achieving the Optimized stage requires GRC expectations set as part of the annual strategic planning processes. The organization has extensive measurement and monitoring of GRC in the context of business strategy, performance and objectives. There is shared information and technology between risk, control and compliance management as well as decision support, optimization and business intelligence. The organization has integrated risk and finance data to drive performance and maximize value creation.

Governance, Risk and Compliance software selection process
A client of mine recently asked me about what I have seen as the most effective way to run a selection process. Now I know this may seems a conflict of interest, a GRC solution vendor writing on the GRC software selection process and the need for a GRC platform. Still I think I can give you some dos and donts on a GRC software selection process since I have been there many times.
Let's start with the need for a GRC software platform. Why do you need such?
Of course investing in a solution needs a compelling event. Either the cost for risk management and compliance becomes very high, or the process takes too long to be responsive to stakeholders or the 'in control' statement cannot be guaranteed any longer. Also external regulators can advise you to implement software.
Before you start thinking about a GRC platform carefully review the risk and compliance maturity level of your organization and the scope of the problem. This will help you make the judgment between 2 approaches. First approach is what we call 'point solution', second approach is 'enterprise solution'.
The first approach, Point Solution, is best when the compelling event is there but the scope is limited to one area. On a single point of your GRC activities you have a pain that must be resolved in a fairly short term. In this case you can search for specific capabilities with specific knowledge. You can make a selection of vendors that operate in the area where you have the pain and select the partner that understands your area. Of course you might want to consider your ambition on the long term. If your long term ambition is Enterprise wide GRC integration you might still look at enterprise vendors and use the specific area as a 'pilot' for further extension.
The second approach, Enterprise Solution, is best when the compelling event is on the integration of Governance, Risk and Compliance. The term risk and control convergence often comes up here. This approach requires a lot more work than the point solution and may have cultural impact. You might consider a second party to help you go through this project. A second party (consulting firm) can help you in making critical decisions and in reviewing your current (silo based) approach to GRC. They can keep the holistic view for you. Every silo needs to be reviewed and mapped to the enterprise approach. This will not come without discussions and sacrifices!
So the need is there, now how to make your selection?
In the first point solution approach there are just two considerations, short term or long term? In case of the short term do NOT select an enterprise vendor and go for the right point solution. Advantages are lower cost and shorter implementation time. Second consideration, long term, means a selection between enterprise GRC software vendors and consider the first phase as a pilot for the enterprise approach. Still you might want to involve a consulting firm with specific knowledge.
In the second enterprise approach you will go for an enterprise vendor. This is where you want to be careful in setting up your selection. I personally have seen many of these selection processes since I have been in such selections. And this is where I want to give you some guidance to save you a lot of time and money.
First do NOT expect the enterprise vendors to differentiate on functionality. The GRC software market has made an evolution in the last 10 years that have resulted in a fairly high mature software market. So a 'beauty contest' is a waste of money and resources. Outcome will be equal for all vendors and you will be stuck between your user community and the vendors in the process. You might get questions from your management team why you spend so much time and resources without any outcome.
Secondly involve your end users in the selection process early, but do not expect 20 people working in silos to come to one single conclusion. Again you will end up in a long discussion with no outcome. Have a small group of people (3 preferably) to make the selection.
Thirdly make your selection criteria known upfront and make them measurable. Also involve the vendors in the process and be open to them. If you are open and honest you will get transparent, open and honest answers. If you hide, vendors will hide! Criteria should be based on experience in your market, understanding of your organization, size and financial stability, ability to deliver in time and within budget, alignment of implementation approach to your implementation methodology and the cultural fit.
Again this may look preaching to the choir but I hope I just saved you time and money that you can invest in your implementation.

IBM Enhances Risk-Aware Decision Making & Policy Management with New OpenPages Platform Release
Timothy Powers 270003F3FN firstname.lastname@example.com | | Tags:  frank-dodd risk grc business-analytics cognos fraud performance-management compliance openpages analytics governance risk-analytics | 0 Comments | 3,620 Visits
By Gordon Burnes, Worldwide Marketing, IBM Risk Analytics
A key theme at Vision 2012, IBM's three-day user conference for Finance and Risk professionals, is how organizations can leverage enterprise risk information to make better decisions while balancing the demands for risk oversight and regulatory compliance.
The current complex and dynamic regulatory environment is a particular challenge for risk and compliance directors. For instance, while organizations covered by Dodd-Frank must respond to current regulatory reporting requirements, less than a third of the associated rule-making has been finished.
So, risk and compliance professionals must put in place an approach to meet regulatory requirements that can easily adapt over time as regulations evolve, and this approach includes the capability to adapt internal policies to keep pace with the evolving regulatory environment.
During the Risk Analytics Keynote, IBM announced general availability of IBM OpenPages GRC Platform 6.1.
This new solution enhances the ability to make risk-aware business decisions, enables companies to react more quickly to regulatory changes through better policy management, and decreases costs and complexity of compliance.
Leveraging the IBM Cognos business intelligence platform, OpenPages 6.1 delivers interactive reports and dashboards that allow business managers to turn that risk information into insight and insight into better business outcomes.
The new release includes several important enhancements:
· Manages lifecycle of policies from creation, review, approval, attestation, and exception management
· Standardizes policy templates and approval processes across the business
· Allows policies to be structured in a standardized way but presented in narrative form (for editing and review, etc) the way people are used to working with policies
· Formalizes process for employee awareness and training and monitoring of campaigns
· Maps policies to regulatory library and control framework to increase visibility into policy coverage & adherence and make it easier to update policies as regulations change
· Enhanced reporting user interface and framework that empowers business users to explore and analyze risk data using interactive dashboards and reporting for better decision making
In summary, IBM OpenPages 6.1:
· Enables companies to react more quickly to regulatory changes through better policy management
· Enhances the ability to make risk-aware business decisions through easier access to risk and compliance information
· Decreases the cost and complexity of compliance with out-of-the-box configurations for policy management.

Japanese Koi are bred from the finest bloodlines of show champions. The High-Quality rating is the result of breeders evaluating physical size, physical characteristics, patterns, colors, and overall behavior/presence. Common strains include:
Asagi, Ginmatsuba,
Kohaku, Kujyaku,
Taisho Sanke,
Platinum Ogon,
Yamabuki Ogon,
Showa, Doistu, and Kawarimono.
The ideal set-up for the Japanese Koi is a pond of at least 1,000 gallons with a gravel substrate, rocks, and hearty plants. Koi like to eat the roots of plants and will dig to get to them, so provide large rocks around the base of the plants to protect them. Adequate
filtration should be provided in order to maintain proper water conditions. Japanese Koi can live over 200 years, but the typical life span is 25 to 35 years.
The male can be differentiated from the female by the concave anal section and sometimes breeding spots on the head. Spawning may result in as many as 1,000 eggs and the fry emerge in 4-7 days, depending on water temperature. Feed the fry small live foods, and/or
frozen daphnia for the first 3-4 weeks, then gradually switch their diet to crushed
pellets or
flake food. Their colors will emerge in about 3-12 weeks.

Couture in line for a title shot with a win over Vera?
Fightlinker makes the case:
With Rampage Jackson leaving the company taking a hiatus from the UFC, the title picture after this weekend's Machida v. Shogun fight is a bit screwy. The Forrest Griffin vs. Tito Ortiz fight that co-headlines UFC 106 will put the winner back on the road to the belt, but each of those guys will need at least another win before fighting for gold, with Griffin having dropped his last two and Ortiz having not won a fight since 2006. The winner of the Rashad Evans vs. Thiago Silva fight tentatively scheduled for UFC 108 will undoubtedly be at the top of the 205-pound heap, but both fighters have suffered recent losses to current champ Lyoto Machida, meaning each of them will also likely need to win another big fight before being considered for a title shot. The upcoming bout between Lil Nog and Luiz Cane will produce arguably the most deserving candidate from a sporting perspective, but both men will need a bit more exposure to the fanbase before fighting in a pay-per-view main event for the championship — no matter what Joe Hardcore thinks…
With all the other options exhausted, it only makes sense that Couture would get a shot at the title if victorious in his next fight. "The Natural" has won UFC championship gold so many times that it's almost strange when he's not fighting for a title. Brandon Vera might not be at the top of the 205-pound ladder, but he's still a dangerous opponent. A victory would mean that Couture can still compete with the younger, quicker fighters. A fight between the 46 year old and either Machida or Shogun would be an easy sell: can Randy shock the world again? I heavily doubt his chances against either Brazilian, but I would still buy the shit out of that fight.
I'd add two points to this. First, I think one of the most appealing things about a Couture title shot isn't mentioned here. Couture enjoys a well deserved reputation as one of the sport's great gameplanners, and with Lyoto Machida enjoying a reputation for being an unsolvable, pee-drinking riddle, Couture could easily be sold as the one man who might be able to figure out how to beat the champ. Couture would still have long odds, but I can't think of anyone whose chances I'd like at this point, so why not give The Natural a shot? As a friend of mine once said, if you want to go broke, make a habit of betting against Randy Couture.
Although this leads to my second point – I think the case for this happening gets a little weaker if Rua pulls out the win at UFC 104. A Rua win this weekend wouldn't negate the arguments for a Couture title shot, but it would certainly open the door to the idea of a title shot for the winner of the rumored Rashad Evans-Thiago Silva bout at UFC 108. While I don't think there's a great deal of interest in seeing either of those guys rematch Machida this soon, a big win could make either one a viable option for a title show were Rua to take home the gold this weekend.
Check back next week when I'll have a breakdown of the state of various UFC 205-pounders' title shot aspirations in the wake of this weekends' fights.

Katy Sparks Is Now Union Market's Consulting Chef
Sparks is adding sumac-panisse fries to the East Village grocer's menu.
The veteran New York restaurant scene chef — who'll soon take charge of the Tavern on the Green reboot — is warming up for the gig as the consulting chef for Union Market on Houston and First Avenue. Sparks has added an array of prepared food, such as the sumac-dusted panisses she was cooking at 10 Downing. "There's no other project that would have gotten me back into the kitchen," she says of the forthcoming Tavern 2.0 and its panoply of local ingredients. "It's the right time for delicious food with a little bit of conscientious sourcing." [NYDN, Earlier]

The primary winner is unknown.
But, it's certain that challenger Joe Vance will battle 12-year incumbent Wendi Morris in November for her Position 2 seat on the Ridgefield School Board.
In Tuesday's vote count, Vance led Morris by a thin margin: 736 votes to 734 votes, or 46.8 percent to 46.7 percent.
Finishing a distant third was Brad Bauges, chief executive officer for Columbia Credit Union.
Bauges pulled 89 votes, or 5.7 percent.
Vance, 43, is a commercial litigation attorney with seven children, six now in Ridgefield schools. He moved to the Ridgefield district 13 years ago. A graduate of Prairie High School, he works at the Miller Nash law office in Vancouver.
"Wow," said the first-time office seeker, who has voiced no criticism of Morris.
"It'll be a good opportunity for voters" in November, Vance said. "They have two good choices. I just think getting a fresh set of eyes and ideas for the district could be good, and I'd like to have the opportunity to serve."
Morris, 42, is a 1987 graduate of Ridgefield High School and mother of three Ridgefield students. She has served on the board since 1999.
She noted the low voter turnout — barely more than 18 percent — but is confident residents will be clued in to a competitive board race.
"I'm appreciative of the votes I received," Morris said, "and look forward to the next couple months of, hopefully, opportunities for Joe and I to get to the issues, so people can hear us out and make their decision."

There are many reasons that healthy couples, with no signs of infertility struggle to conceive. The research has shown that there is no strong evidence to show that there is no strong evidence for sex positions helping or hindering the conception process, but there are many couples out there who claim otherwise.
Regardless, it certainly can't hurt to try!
The Best Sex Position for Conceiving: The Missionary Sex Position
The missionary sex position is the most popular sex position, so it shouldn't be a surprise that it's the position that most recommend using when trying to conceive. It allows for deep penetration, getting the sperm closer to the cervix, and when the woman lies on her back it is the perfect angle to help the little guys swim downwards.
Use Gravity: The Deep Stick Sex Position
You want the sperm to travel down towards your uterus. Give the little fella's a helping hand but placing a pillow under your backside to raise yourself up while in the missionary sex postition.
If you are flexible, try altering the missionary position by lifting your legs onto your partner's shoulders, which will lift you up even more. This is called the Deep Stick sex position, because it allows for even deeper penetration, and is the optimum position for utilising gravity.
More Sex Tips for Conceiving:
Let The Brew Stew
If you jump up straight after sex, where do you think your man's juice is going to go? Away from your uterus. Stay lying down, keeping the pillow under you for gravity, for at least ten minutes after sex. Aim for thirty minutes and use the time to get some cuddles in!
Don't be a Douche
Sorry girls, hold out on this. Douching flushes out the cervical fluid needed to give sperm a quick path to the uterus.
Don't go at it like Rabbits
You might think that having sex a few times a day, every day will increase your chances of getting pregnant, but in actual fact this can decrease his sperm count, and therefore decrease your chances of conceiving. Every other day around ovulation is optimum.
Enjoy yourself!
It can be easy to feel like you are having sex to make a baby, rather than having sex because you want to. The female orgasm is said to help with conception, so do your best to make sure it happens! Even if you want to be strict about the missionary position around ovulation, make sure you mix it up during the other weeks to keep some fun in the bedroom.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
Lamar University students Danny Iles of Hemphill and Justin Royal of Vidor will be fishing in the National Guard FLW College Fishing tournament on Sam Rayburn Reservoir on Feb. 26 for the second of four stops in the Southern Conference. Forty college teams will be competing for a top award of $5,000 and a berth in the Southern Regional Championship tournament.
Shocking! A representative of the law firm that has helped the Beaumont Independent School District secretly settle lawsuits for less than $50,000 so they wouldn't have to be made public is now recommending the board not involve members of the community in its search for a new school superintendent.
People in companies with all the money have been dubbed "job creators" by the conservative faction in America. In the past two years, corporations in America have reaped record profits in the billions. They are doing better financially now than they ever have in the history of this country. Yet they do not seem to be inclined to create new jobs.
Artist Charles Stagg lived for art. In fact, he lived "inside" his artwork. Since the early 1980s, Stagg worked and lived in a house-sized sculpture in Southeast Texas. Over the course of 30 years, he built a unique home out of cement, wood, cans and bottles on his family's land off Main Street in the woods of Vidor.
February has long been a difficult time for folks in the outdoors media. The major hunting seasons are nearly all history except the conservation goose season. There are always the exotics to go after. The fish don't really care about the weather, but the fishermen do. There are, of course, some dedicated anglers that head out no matter what the weather happens to be, except for summer hurricanes. Even then there are those folks that will risk life and limb to catch a bull redfish in the surf.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.
For this week's New York Times crossword puzzle, pick up a copy of this week's The Examiner on newsstands now.


text: At the time I want to place SWF into PowerPoint 2010, I would utilize the added Controls dialog which is in Developer tab to place in a Shockwave or Flash object. However in the released x64 PowerPoint 2010, that control is omitted from the dialog.When I hit the Register Custom DLL, there is no obvious file to select, either. When using the Insert/Media button on the ribbon, there are many video formats recognized, but SWF and FLV are not among them. I am looking to insert a SWF using only what is built into PowerPoint 2010 and Flash, so if anyone has info on it, please let me know!

PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has spoken publicly for the first time at a massive celebration marking the 100th birthday of national founder Kim Il Sung.
Kim gave the speech praising his grandfather Sunday as tens of thousands gathered in Pyongyang's main square for meticulously choreographed festivities that came two days after a failed rocket launch.
Washington and others say the launch was a covert test of long-range missile technology.

Greater Cincinnati's oldest haunted house is more creepy and eerie than scary, but it still serves up plenty of fun. Dracula and the Wolf Man and a gaggle of other classic horror icons pursue visitors through the property. You'll explore the haunted mansion from top to bottom and run for your life across a shaky wooden bridge outside. It's good fun and tame enough for the kids. Proceeds benefit St. Rita's School for the Death (err … Deaf) so when they say no one will hear you scream, they mean it.

Alignment is a measure of the character's morale fiber as measured along two axes: Good vs. Evil and Law vs. Chaos. The initial Alignment system is not going to be too complex, as detecting good or evil acts within the game is pretty hard aside from some specific actions. Making the system more robust is going to be a long term goal. That said, we think even the basic system is enough to get started with (and Alignment is a core feature of Pathfinder, so we don't want to leave it out).

Two former Camas residents, Duane and Linda Buhrmester, were killed last week in a mud- and rock slide while climbing Crestone Needle, a 14,000-foot mountain in the Sangre de Cristo mountain range in Colorado.
It's believed the two were retreating from a severe thunderstorm when they fell about 500 feet with the sliding rocks and mud on July 27, according to the Associated Press and several other news stories. A search and rescue team found them under rocks and mud Sunday, one day after a family member reported they hadn't returned from their camping trip.
Duane Buhrmester, 57, was a longtime psychology professor at the University of Texas at Dallas. Linda Buhrmester, 56, ran a in-home child-care company. They lived in Plano in the Dallas area.
Family members said the couple had been climbing mountains for about 30 years.
"Every year they sent me a Christmas card of a mountain they climbed that year," said Jean Wollam, a Camas resident and Linda Buhrmester's sister. "Every year they would go somewhere and climb a mountain. That was their vacation."
Duane Buhrmester graduated from Camas High School in 1971, and Linda Buhrmester in 1972.
They had dated since the 7th or 8th grade and were "soul mates," said Larry Buhrmester, Duane Buhrmester's brother.
Family members said Duane Buhrmester played football in high school and Linda Buhrmester was a cheerleader.
The two were married in Camas in 1977. Their two adult sons, Ryan and Michael, live in Texas, said Larry Buhrmester and his wife, Rosie, who live in Washougal.
Family members said Crestone Needle is popular among rock climbers.
They said the couple had started up the mountain early that day, planning to reach the summit. As they ascended, they saw that a severe thunderstorm was approaching with dark clouds and lightning.
The couple decided to go back down and had rappelled down a steep area to a less-steep area where they could hike down to their camp. They had unhooked their ropes when the rock slide came down on them not far from their camp, family members said.

From Grand Theft Wiki
Revision as of 09:31, 13 June 2012 by NssJ (talk | contribs) (→Description: bike will combust/explode if too near another exploding vehicle.)
|Toni Cipriani on an Avenger.
|[[Appearance::GTA Liberty City Stories]]
|Vehicle type
|Civilian motorbike
|Body style
|2 (rider and passenger)
The Avenger is a motorcycle in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
The Avenger is a rare chopper-style motorbike, based off of a classic Harley-Davidson, like the Freeway and Angel.
The top speed, acceleration and handling are considerably better than the other chopper bikes of the GTA III Era; the Angel and the Freeway. It is bulletproof and fireproof, however, it can be damaged is through collisions, close proximity to vehicle explosions, or firing a Rocket Launcher at it.
- The Avenger can be only obtained once, which is completing 15 Avenging Angels side-missions in Portland, where it will spawn at the Portland Safehouse in Saint Mark's. However it will not permanently spawn, so save it at a garage to avoid losing the bike.
- The color scheme may be related to those of Iron Man (red and gold) for he is one of the Avengers in the Marvel universe.
